It may also have gained origin from the Kaijin style of Japanese monster movies, involving a humanoid creature that acts as a villain. There is also a resemblance to the Super Sentai and Kamen Rider series' suited heroes.
Name origin
Pawniard may be a combination of pawn (the most basic piece in chess or the undisclosed name of a low level operative in an organization) and poignard or poniard (a lightweight dagger). It may also involve palliard (beggar or thief).
Komatana may be a combination of 駒 koma (a piece in Shogi), 細切れ komagire (small pieces), and 刀 katana (sword) or 小刀 kogatana (knife).
