User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Shagaru Magala/@comment-7250937-20150817190410

Shagaru is a mixed bag for me. I love his design, the weapons are great, the armor looks cool, and I LOVE the battle theme. But I'm not a huge fan of the fight itself. To me it just feels like a normal Gore with slightly stronger attacks and RNG explosions. Everywhere. It makes the fight seem a lot more difficult artificially. It gets even worse on level 140 Shaggy, where the explosions are almost a near one shot, and they follow you. Trying to heal? Explosion. Getting up from an attack? Explosion. Certainly not the worst monster introduced in 4th gen but I much prefer Gore.
