The puffball monster is a really ingenious monster design. The puff balls are localized numbing agents, with enough of them on a limb making it difficult to move the body part. The monster itself knows that the prey cannot escape, so it slowly wakes up and meanders towards the immobilized prey. It doesn't need multiple methods of attack since it doesn't need to fight, just one singular armour piercing fang does the trick. It has 6 flat feet to navigate bumpy terrain easily, thin legs to better meld to the body. Long flat tail to make the creature blend into the environment better. I love its whole shebang. Quality stuff

And then they come back and feed on you. However you are still conscious and Alive the entire time while they are feeding on you... you just can't move or do anything about it.

There’s no sign of the creature after levi punches it so either he punched it so hard that it exited stage left or exploded into the paralysis fluffs. Maybe the bug is immune and collects them or maybe they’re like fungus spores and levi just contributed to the growth of more these creatures. It could go any way, I think part of why this show is so incredible is that these organisms are at times beyond human understanding.

The monster just uses the ecosystem to it's advantage. It's a beetle, so with a hard external carapace I doubt it's affected by the spores and instead just benefits off of the paralysed soft bodied animals that wonder too close.

In the show, the robot (Levi) is shown to, at the very least, have a personality before this scene. Levi, immediately after this scene, asks Ozzy (the girl who's getting puffball'd) to not turn her off again, as "it stops them from seeing, thinking, or feeling." The puffball bug is really cool though.

I think the larger creature at 1:15 (whose body is seemingly composed of the balls) uses them as a way to immobilize prey. Hoowever, since its body ismade out of the same material, would it be detaching its own body parts to search for food? Maybe it's like a siphonophore - a huge colony of singular organisms arranged around a core, who work together as a single entity? 2:44 Also, i love the way these helicopter-dragonfly thingies look.

I think it just produces the puff balls, which aren't creatures (more like clumps of fur or spores) letting them stick to its back, and gradually allows them to detach / sends them out whenever it senses prey. Then again, when the robot attacks it there's no sign of a corpse, so maybe it is some sort of colony.
