'''Chikako''' (also known as '''Glitter''') floats about in the skies of the [[Chai Kingdom]] during the events of ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. Mario must try to avoid running into this mine-like enemy. It is slightly immobile, although it can float up or down. They can be shot ten times with the [[Sky Pop]]'s missiles to destroy it, awarding Mario with an extra 800 points. Chikakos seem to only appear in World 4-3, the Sky Pop's level. Chikakos somewhat resemble computer monitors with antennas.
