- For the boss called "Gobanz" in Japan, see Death Bat.
Gobanz is a boss in Castlevania: The Adventure.
Description
Gobanz is the first boss in Castlevania: The Adventure, an armored hulking creature that wields a retractable club-like weapon. He advances slowly from one side of the screen, stopping every couple of steps to unleash his weapon for a ranged attack. His armor will reflect any fireballs shot from Christopher's whip (reflected fireballs are harmless to Christopher as well).
He makes a reappearance as a normal enemy in the last stage of the game.

Trivia
- The Game Boy Nintendo Player's Guide refers to him as "The Giant".
- Gobanz is likely the same type of creature in armor as the Iron Doll from Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge.
- He was originally called "Night Stalker" in the Japanese release of the game, but was renamed as "Gobanz" during localization. Likewise, the enemy that came to be known as "Zeldo" in the West was a reaper originally called "Night Stalker" in Japan.
