## Appearances

### Debut

Mikki Maohsu's Wonderous Quest

**Shovel Blade** is a member of The Nightmare Troupe from the anime **Mikki Maohsu's Wonderous Quest**. Shovel Blade is one of the two lieutenants of the troupe, alongside Claw Rotgut. He has the ability to create and manipulate shovels. This ability is called Unlimited Shovel Works. Shovel Blade later lost his left hand, which he replaced with a shovel, and Greed gave him the ability to raise and command the undead. Shovel Blade has multiple **Nightmare Abilities** known as **Shovel Strike**, **Melon Strike**, and **Rising Wedge**, which all seem to be variations of manipulating the mass of a shovel.

## History

### Home Village Arc

Shovel Blade led the assault on Mikki Maohsu's hometown, burning it down and murdering Uncuru, Mikki unleashed the power of The Sky Onion to blast a large laser at Shovel Blade, injuring him, and causing him and his squad to retreat.

### End of Dalphilipa Arc

After Xenlon's death at the hands of Onicha's uncle and Mikki, Shovel Blade and one of his sidekicks, Ucie Maohsu arrived in the destroyed Dalphilipia to kill them. Onicha's uncle could tell how dangerous Shovel Blade was, and yelled for Brown Ears and Mikki to run away, while Shovel Blade cut his arm off. Shovel Blade then commanded hundreds of jesters to attack Onicha's uncle.

### Temple of Craxil no Kami Arc

Brown Ears opened a door inside **The Temple of Craxil no Kami**, only to be pierced with hundreds of shovels, courtesy of Shovel Blade. Mikki was angry, and entered the room, only to find it be a graveyard, with various corpses everywhere, and a massive throne made of bones in the middle, where Shovel Blade sat, his left hand replaced with a shovel. Shovel Blade told Mikki that Greed granted Shovel Blade the ability to raise the undead to do his bidding after he lost his land. Mikki claimed that Shovel Blade won't even use his own power, to which Shovel Blade responded with the fact that he doesn't need to, and created a large mass of corpses with a red eyeball. Mikki created an explosion from within the corpses, exploding the bodies in flames.

Shovel Blade laughed at Mikki, and informed him that the corpses were the corpses of everyone from Mikki's home village, causing Mikki to break down. Shovel Blade shot many shovels at Mikki, cleaving off his arm, piercing his chest, breaking his bones, and turning his organs to mush. Shovel Blade was about to finish Mikki off, until Brown Ears threw a shovel from her back at Shovel Blade, who caught it, and jammed in into her neck. Mikki stood up, and regenerated his lost limbs, accidentally growing new ones in the process, and charged at Shovel Blade, who turned the entire ground under Mikki into a giant shovel, which tried Mikki dodged, but was decimated by dozens of other shovels. Mikki regenerated however, and Shovel Blade summoned a giant zombie named Tamazusa. Mikki created shovels of his own, and dug underground, Tamazusa quickly approaching, but Greed got to Mikki first, ending their battle early.

After trapping Ucie in a cage, Mikki re-entered the room with the throne of bones, and saw Brown Ears pinned to the wall with shovels, with her throat missing. Mikki walked over to try to heal her, but she told him that it's a trap, and Shovel Blade pierced Mikki all over with shovels. Mikki unsheathed two shovels from his back, and began to use them like swords, clashing with Shovel Blade in a duel. Shovel Blade dived at Mikki with the strength of a meteor, but Mikki created a large ball of shovels to block him. Mikki saw an opening, and using a curved sword that Brown Ears gave him earlier, Mikki slashed at Shovel Blade, only for Ucie to jump in the way, and take the slash across the torso.

Mikki went over to Ucie, and asked why she protected Shovel Blade, and she explained that she helped with her **Nightmare Plague**, which she claimed was given to her by Erito. She said that whenever she took off her mask, and black handprint would appear, and Shovel Blade helped her live with it. Ucie told Mikki that she joined The Nightmare Troupe because Erito gave her a plague, then abandoned her, and wanted revenge. Mikki pointed out that Erito didn't abandon their family out of his own will, and he never gave anyone a plague. Ucie was shocked, and looked towards Shovel Blade, who confirmed that he gave Ucie the Nightmare Plague and lied to her, manipulating her into joining the troupe. Ucie was shocked, before she was decapitated by Shovel Blade's shovel hand.

Mikki fell to his knees, and Shovel Blade began beating the helpless Cattlewuff. Mikki thought to himself everything that Shovel Blade had done to him, and his intrusive thoughts took over, making him violent, and making him turn to bloody revenge, not in control of his body anymore. Mikki blasted forward, breaking the sound barrier, and punching a hole through Shovel Blade's chest, which he replaced with a shovel blade. Mikki started ruthlessly slaughtering Shovel Blade, who fought back, breaking Mikki's arms like twigs, and cutting off his fingers, to which Mikki didn't even notice. Mikki created dark tentacles from his arms, using Shovel Blade's own shovels against him, eventually making Shovel Blade desperate enough to pull out a strange device, which he claimed would heal him, and that it was a gift from Greed. However, the device didn't do anything, and Mikki shattered the device with his tentacles, causing Shovel Blade to lose a lot of blood. Shovel Blade was crawling on the ground, and Mikki walked over to him and curb-stomped his head, splattering his head, and ending Shovel Blade's reign of villainy.

### Sacrificed Souls Arc

Shovel Blade's soul was used by Greed, along with Erito's soul, as sacrifices to resurrect Craxil no Kami, so Shovel Blade's soul ended up in **The Void of Craxil no Kami**, where he teamed up with his master to protect The Flute of Binding from Mikki and Erito. Shovel Blade fought Erito, who were evenly matched, until Erito told Shovel Blade that Greed betrayed him, lying about the device which Greed said would heal Shovel Blade, but it instead stole his soul. Shovel Blade didn't believe him, but asked Greed anyway, and Greed immediately confirmed it, angering Shovel Blade. Shovel Blade impaled Greed with hundreds of shovels, forcing Greed to drop The Flute of Binding, giving Erito the opportunity to open the blood chest, letting Mikki steal the flute. Greed ran towards Mikki one last time, but Shovel Blade impaled Greed with more shovels, giving Mikki that last chance to say goodbye to his father, and for Brown Ears to retrieve Mikki's soul.
