==History==
===Ultraman Nexus===
Arakunia and Froguros were Space Beasts sent by Dark Mephisto as subjects to test the Night Raiders in action, specifically Mizorogi (who was deputy captain of the Night Raiders at that time). Two Arakunias were spotted in a factory where the big one attacked the Night Raiders with its tongue after the smaller one was killed. However the monsters was no match for the Night Raiders' weapons and were quickly killed by their gunfire. 
It was revealed back in Shiori's past as a policewoman, she encountered a smaller Arakunia, feeding on garbage as she mistook it for a bear before the beast attacked her. Despite this, the Night Raiders came into rescue and killed the monster and Shiori was later recruited moments later. 
====Trivia====
*Arakunia's roar is a reused Alien Muzan roar.
*Arakunia was made by combining the arms and torso of the Yamawarawa costume (from Ultraman Cosmos), the hands of the Alien Zamu costume (from Ultraman Neos) and the feet of Chaos Darkness (from Ultraman Cosmos).
**The "wings" of Arakunia would later be used on another space beast, Bugbuzun in Ultraman X. The head is believed to have been loosely modified for the Alien Ckalutch in Ultraman Orb The Movie.
