Kirinia

Kirinia is a Warrior Beast that served as the monster of the week in episode 17 of the Great Mazinger anime along with Bravius.

Appearance
Kirinia resembles its namesake, the Qilin with a Chinese dragon-like head that features antlers and a flaming mane that goes down to the tail, a deer-like body, and a pair of bird wings extending from the sides of its body. Its true face is located on its forehead between its antlers.

Abilities
Kirinia is capable of flight with its wings providing lift and stability. It is capable of breathing fire and summoning tornadoes for combat. It is resistant to beam attacks and can even separate its body horizontally. With its horse-like half gone, it gains more flexibility and movement.

History
Kirinia is first seen with Bravius alongside Minister Argos and the Great General. It then Kirinia kidnaps Shiro's girlfriend Haruna Shiratori. Borot along with Venus tries to rescue the girl but Kirinia overpowers them.

Tetsuya launches Great Mazinger but can't fight Kirinia because Haruna is inside. Borot and Venus take apart the lower half of Kirinia which brings out a crystal box with no one inside. Great Mazinger fights with the elusive upper half of the body, until the Great launches his Missile Punch towards Kirinia's eyes, blinding him. Then Great Mazinger proceeds to cut Kirinia's wings off with his Great Boomerang and finish the falling Warrior Beast with the Breast Burn. In the end, Haruna survives.
