Motomu Chikaraishi (力石 求) (born on June 11, 1976 in Shiga Prefecture) was one of the programmers for Super Metroid; his first project with Intelligent Systems. His responsibilities were the programming of enemy movements, as well as map data. Since then, Chikaraishi has primarily programmed role-playing games from series such as Paper Mario and Fire Emblem. According to a developer interview in the Japanese Super Metroid guide, Chikaraishi's favorite anime are Record of Lodoss War and Sailor Moon. He had the shortest Super Metroid clear time of all the developers interviewed, at 1:06, and did not have a secret of Samus Aran to share.
