Liondance is an enemy that first appeared in Ninja-Kun.
Liondances are generally slow, and their attack isn't particularly fast either. However, when their weapon comes to rest, it erupts in a fire that can never be extinguished. And it doesn't take long for a lot of these fires to overwhelm Ninjakun and prevent any plans for escape. It is especially important, when dealing with Liondances, to secure two floors that Ninjakun can move between freely. Once a floor is overrun with fire, it will be difficult to use that floor for safety. The fires will eventually dissipate, but it takes a very long time. This enemy is not found in the Famicom version.
