That pillow thing is the Capsule Monster Cappuccino boss from Gokujō Parodius.

... Sounds caffeinlicious. Does destroying the monster increase the speed of the ship?

...Capsule Hell?

Yes, actually. If I recall correctly that thing throws a ton of powerups at you, along with spikeballs.

I should elaborate on my previous statement, as it may be a bit confusing.

It shoots powerups at you, intermixed with the spike balls. Thus, you want to grab some powerups so you can get that last option, but it shoots them in such quantity that you have no idea what will be selected once you're done grabbing a few.

That, and there's good chance you'll go face-first into a spike ball.
