Mnemonic

The oni are demonic, fearsome creatures of legend. Even though this one's face was badly slashed on its left side it is powerul enough to plow through a whole rice field and eat all of the farmers working on it, running on its strong legs, and having a whole arm of a bodybuilder inside of its belly that it consumed a while ago.
