Tia and Megumi Oumi are two ]s and ]s of the ] and ] series '']''. | |||
==Tia== | |||
SW I know your reading this. | |||
'''Tia''', known as {{nihongo|'''Tio'''|ティオ}} in the original, is the first mamodo to ally with ]. She is usually considered to be a tomboy and used to bully ] a lot in the mamodo world, though she secretly has a crush on him. She's a tough mamodo who initially believed that every other mamodo was an enemy, but with Zatch's help learned that there are others who she can trust. Tia is six years old and able to conjure up strong shields but weak attacks. This makes her a defensive type fighter with little or no real attack power. | |||
Tia was originally friends with the mamodo Maruss, but then was betrayed by him when the mamodo kingship battle started. In the human world, Tia met with Maruss again on a ship, but he attacked her, knocking her into the sea. After the battle, Megumi found Tia unconscious by the docks. While Tia initially resisted her friendship, eventually they became close partners. After the situation with Maruss, Tia had a hard time trusting others. She finds herself able to trust again when Zatch comes to rescue her from Maruss at one of Megumi's concerts. | |||
Kiyo, Megumi, Zatch, and Tia promise to help each other and later fight together successfully against Purio and Zoboron and their bookkeepers. They become a team of sorts and fight together again when Penny sends ] after Zatch and Kiyo. During the battle against the Ancient Mamodo, Dalmos, Tia is given Zatch's spellbook to protect and is able to do so with the help of other mamodo teams who have vowed to defeat the Ancient Mamodo and their leader, ]. | |||
Tia now meditates under waterfalls, to help improve her defensive abilities, which can be seen dramatically. | |||
At the final battle, Tia and Megumi join Zatch, Kiyo, and Sunbeam as they race to the battleground on Ponygon's back. Tia uses her enhanced defense spells to shield them from Clear's powerful long range attack spell. She manages to protect them long enough for Clear's spell to be destroyed. However, the strain of holding back Clear's massive attack is too much and her book begins to deteriorate and then burn. Tia tells Zatch that she was glad she could help him reach the final battle. Before fading away she tells Zatch to win and that she will see him again. (manga only) | |||
Tia was known in the mamodo world as "Tia the Strangler", and is often seen strangling Zatch (or any other mamodo or people) to the point that his neck becomes stretched out. | |||
She secretly has a crush on Zatch, similar to Megumi liking Kiyo. She also has an immense fear of heights. | |||
In the original version, Tio is voiced by ]. In the English version, Tia is voiced by ]. | |||
==Megumi Oumi== | |||
{{nihongo|'''Megumi Ooumi'''|大海恵|Ōumi Megumi}} is a Japanese ] and pop singer. She is the book keeper of Tia and befriends Zatch and Kiyo after they help her to defeat Maruss and Rembrant. She is a master of Judo and Aikido, even teaching it to Tia for self-defense. | |||
Megumi first met Tia when she found her injured on the docks. They then found out that Megumi was her bookkeeper who would help her in the battle to decide the next ruler of the mamodo world. At first, Tia had kept harshly to herself when they'd first met, saying that Megumi would only get hurt helping her fight off mamodo. They eventually started to get along and Tia came to trust Megumi. | |||
She can be seen doing concerts, tours, and other things that keep her schedule busy. She goes to school full-time as well, getting hassled by photographers and classmates. Megumi is also a skilled cook and has been seen cooking on a few occasions. She is patient when it comes to Tia's fits of anger and scolds her when necessary. She went under the training together with Kiyo, training to use the heart energy wisely from ]. | |||
Throughout the manga as well as the anime, it is hinted she has romantic feelings for ], just as Tia has for ]. She also has the ability to make Kiyo blush. In the manga, when Kiyo was on the brink of death, she was very eager to do CPR on him, but didn't get the chance. When she, Kiyo, and Suzy go shopping for a housing gift to ], Megumi "bullies" Suzy while Suzy was giving Kiyo a lie detector test, mainly questions about his relationship with Megumi (Tia noticed there was jealousy between the two girls). | |||
Megumi was asked by Li-en to burn Wonrei's book to save him from Poosophagus' self-destruction bomb in the manga. She was also asked by Kafk Sunbeam to burn Ponygon's book while Ponygon takes Zatch and Kiyo to the final battle ground to fight ]. | |||
Among Megumi's most popular songs are "Hikari no Purizumu" ("Prism of Light"), "Happy Tomorrow" ("We Did It Together" in the English version) and "Watashi no Yume" ("My Dream"). | |||
In the original version, Megumi is voiced by ]. In the English version, Megumi is voiced by ]. | |||
==Tia and Megumi as a team== | |||
Tia's spells are primarily defensive and regenerative, and their style of combat reflects that. They frequently use shields to protect themselves and their teammates. When fighting alone, their strategy is usually to use defensive spells until their opponent can't cast anymore spells, giving them an opportunity to escape or landing a blow to end the battle. They're very useful teamed up with other mamodo teams due to Tia's spell "Saifogeo", and this is seen frequently through the series. Her final rank is 5th place. | |||
==List of spells== | |||
].]] | |||
*'''Seoshi/Seshiru''': This is Tia's all purpose capsule-like shield. However, it doesn't protect from attacks coming from below, unless she's in the air which causes the capsule to become a sphere. (Defense) | |||
*'''Saisu''': One of Tia's offensive spells, a boomerang of energy. This spell is very weak in comparison to other offensive spells and is infrequently used. The spell is ineffective against other mamodo, mostly causing superficial damage. It is strong enough, however, to knock a human unconscious and to burn another mamodo's book. It seems to increase in power when Tia's angry, like most of her spells.(Attack) | |||
*'''Ma Seshield/Ma Seshirudo''': This spell creates a floating disk-like shield. Although it only protects Tia's front instead of around her, it is comparatively more powerful than Seoshi. (Defense) | |||
*'''Giga La Seoshi/Giga La Seshiru''': Circular barrier that traps opponents and deflects their attacks back at them. However, it is not capable of igniting another mamodo's book (as a mamodo cannot burn their own book); it also protects whoever is inside from outside attacks. (Immobilization) Gained during battle with Dr. Riddles. (first shown in episode 56) | |||
*'''Saifogeo/Saifojio''': Spell that creates a floating sword which heals a human or mamodo when struck by it; when used on a human, it also restores a bit of heart energy. This is a trump card in battle and is often used to heal Tia's teammates. (Assist) Gained during battle with Dr. Riddles (first shown in episode 56). | |||
*'''Chajiru Saifodon''': Conditional spell similar to Saifogeo in appearance which is powered by Tia's anger. Any recent bitter experiences are played back via a mirror of the goddess-like figure's chest and the power builds with each image. The appearance of the goddess becomes more demonic as well, and once the spell is ready Tia launches it at the opponent. While arguably Tia's strongest attack spell, its power depends on how angry Tia is, meaning that this technique is near useless against an opponent if Tia isn't enraged; it does, humorously, seem to give Tia a great relief from stress, as she looks downright pleasant after she uses it. (Attack) Gained in episode 121, chapter 185 of the manga. | |||
*'''Chajiru Seshirudon''': One of Tia's most powerful defense spells which summons three goddesses. It's a conditional spell which works much like Chajiru Saifodon, but is powered by Tia's determination to protect her friends. The manga version of the same spell is an immense shield-like figure that like most defensive spells have some sort of gem in the middle with a small goddess at the top and five fingers on each side. (Defense) Gained in episode 121, first used in episode 148. | |||
*'''Rima Chajiru Seshirudon''': Tia controls two enormous Chajiru Seshirudon-like shields via a pair of spiritual hands. Tia's strongest defense spell. (Defense) Gained in Chapter 303. | |||
*'''Shin Saifojio''': Tia summons four massive '''Saifogeo''' spells that completely heal the intended targets and restores their heart energy. This spell is only used after she has been sent back to the mamodo world, through the use of Zatch's golden book. | |||
==Spellbooks they burned== | |||
*Boru Bora, in the Mochinoki City park (episode 56) | |||
*Alm, in the Devolo ruins (episode 61) | |||
*Gelios, in the Devolo ruins (episode 61) | |||
*], inside Faudo (at Li-en's request) (chapter 223) | |||
