Official Games

Two strange, magical, mysterious creatures seem to exist in the World of Fantasies that attacked Reimu Hakurei and Genjii on the third stage of Story of Eastern Wonderland. Being the midboss of the stage, both of them has its own health bar. They appear on the opposite of each side of the screen and that they both quickly swap positions by moving (float?) from side to side on their opposites and move down while shooting white bullets. They'll do this again, move upwards and do this repeatedly until self-destructing if they aren't defeated by the player on time. What they are, what they're called and who created them are completely unknown.

Character Design

Name

The name "Two Red Dots" or "The 2 Red Dots" is rarely used by the Japanese fans, who simply refer to them as SoEW 3rd Stage Mid-Boss (封魔録三面中ボス). If "Two Red Dots" was to be translated to Japanese literally, it could be translated to "2つの赤い点" (Futatsu no akai-ten), "2つの赤点" (Futatsu no akaten) or "二赤点" (NiAkaTen).

Design

The sprite shows that both of these creatures have a big red dot with a thin grey cross in the centre. They have grey material around the dot with red markings on one side with black markings on the other. They both appear to have something grey pointing out both sides at the top of the dot that resembles two aerials or two horns of some sort. They also have four grey auras sticking out (two big, two small) that strangely twirls on themselves. It's unknown whether they're flat or in a form of an actual body.
