Chikuon was a Daimon created by the fusion of a Daimon Egg and a gramophone. After Eudial attacked Edwards for his Pure Heart Crystal but lost it to Sailor Uranus, she summoned the Daimon to finish off the Senshi.

Chikuon first appeared as a masked, green-skinned woman in oversized Victorian ringlet curls and a heavy ballgown. She could throw the roses that adorned her gown and use them as explosives, or shoot blue beams directly from her hands. She always attacked while saying "un, deux, trois!" ("one, two, three!"; the time count for a waltz).

After she was hit by a strong attack from Sailor Uranus, she transformed into a second form more like a gramophone, with a crank on her hip and a horn mounted on her shoulder. She had two distinct named attacks: the first, "Hell's Waltz," was a series of heavy musical notes that shot out of her gramophone bell and struck a target, while for the second, "The Devil's Yodel," she played and sang music that was very painful to hear. She claimed that the sound of her Devil's Yodel attack would stimulate and destroy the central nervous system of anyone who heard it.

After her record was destroyed by Tuxedo Mask, she attempted to throw her gramophone horn at him, but realized that the last of her weapons was gone. She was then destroyed by Sailor Moon.

Trivia

• Her name comes from "chikuonki" (蓄音器), meaning "gramophone."

• Chikuon was one of the three Daimons who could use her singing voice as a weapon. The other two Daimons were Octave and U-Tahime.

• In the Portuguese dub, Chikuon was renamed "Lili Canecas," after a famous socialite.
