Okosutobon (オコストボン Okosutobon) is a sea mine enemy from Mega Man 9 that is sleeping. If Mega Man or Proto Man gets close or shoots at it, it will awake and chase him until it explodes. It appears in Splash Woman's stage and Wily Castle 2. It is invulnerable to almost any weapon, even Tornado Blow, but can be absorbed with a Black Hole Bomb.
In their sleeping forms, Okosutobons are black and faceless, but they turn red and gain faces when they are agitated.

Trivia[]
- Its behavior is very similar to an enemy named Scarfy in the Kirby series, although much more aggressive.
- They appear to be based on an unused enemy from the first Mega Man game.
- Its name is probably derived from the Japanese phrase "okosu to bon (起こすとボンッ)", which roughly means "If it is woken up by me, it will explodes". Moreover, "bon" is Japanese onomatopoeia of explosion.
