Moguera (Showa)

Moguera's History

Moguera were a weapons system deployed by the Mysterians in the invasion of Japan.

Before the Mysterians revealed themselves to humanity, they sent Moguera to attack a village and destroy its shrine. Moguera moved up the river and was attacked by policemen. Moguera then destroyed a power plant, and attacked a town. The JSDF provided cover for the evacuating residents with rifles, mortars, machine guns, flamethrowers, and 24 Twin Rocket Cars, but their weapons had no effect. However, they were able to lure Moguera to the edge of a bridge rigged with explosives. Upon detonation, Moguera toppled into the river below and exploded.

After the first Moguera was destroyed, another dubbed Moguera No. 2 was released and attacked from underground. It dug up too close to a Markalite Cannon, which collapsed on it, destroying the machine.
