Super Robot Wars MX/Characters: Difference between revisions

=== Hugo Medio (Voiced by [[Hiroki Takahashi]]) ===

* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: (Hugo's color scheme is red; his first theme song is "Burning Red", just to drive the point home. While he doesn't quite like the color, the song name also fits as in he's [[Hot -Blooded]]).

* [[Mid-Season Upgrade]]: (Cerberus Ignite or Garmraid Blaze. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7j659VjfIQ There's a mission in the PSP port where he rescues Aqua and the Dragonar while showing off the upgrade's powers]. This meant that Hugo and the upgraded mecha are back in action.)

=== Aqua Centrum (Voiced by [[Yuri Shiratori]]) ===

* [[Christmas Cake]]: (Partially subverted; while not exactly of the right age (she's 23), Aqua has brief stigmas of this when she meets the MUCH younger pilots of the other series in MX. In fact, Hugo's younger than her!)

* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: (Her color theme's blue, as seen in her theme song "Dancing Blue").

* [[Early -Bird Cameo]]: (''Original Generation Gaiden'').

* [[Fan Girl]]: (Of Kai, surprisingly enough).

* [[Mid-Season Upgrade]]: (Cerberus Ignite or Garmraid Blaze).

* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: (Her outfit...and a bit of [[Gainaxing]]).

* {{spoiler|[[Rage Against the Mentor]]}}: (What she does in MX).

=== Foglia Est (Voiced by Anri Katsu) ===

[[File:1_002801 00280.png|frame]]

* [[Ascended Extra]]: (From a one-note character in MX, into...well, keep reading).

* [[Blessed Withwith Suck]]: (Gets constantly passed over because of his attitude. Then, there's the fact he purposefully exists {{spoiler|just to get [[Killed Off for Real]] in the two games he's ever appeared in}}).

* [[Character Development]]: (Other than being Albero's son and {{spoiler|the circumstances of his death}}, little was known about Foglia until ''Original Generation Gaiden''. Even then, the development isn't a whole lot, but compared to what Foglia had before, it's quite substantial. Hell, his short appearance was enough to garner him a theme song, "Going Ocher", and a [[Color Coded for Your Convenience|personal color scheme of ocher/tan]]).

* [[Early -Bird Cameo]]: (A bit of a subversion, as he wasn't useable in MX).

* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]}}

* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]

* {{spoiler|[[Taking the Bullet]]}} (: {{spoiler|With the only difference between MX and ''Original Generation Gaiden'' being the intended target Foglia takes the bullet for}}).

* {{spoiler|[[Tear Jerker]]}} (: {{spoiler|Foglia's death in ''Original Generation Gaiden'' is quite pronounced compared to his off-screen death in MX}}).

=== Notable characters who sided with the Medius Locus/A1 ===

==== Albero Est (Voiced by Katsuhisa Houki) ====

[[File:1_002791 00279.png|frame]]

The leader of the mercenary Cry Wolves. Introduced in MX as [[The Rival]] to Hugo and Aqua with an interesting connection:{{spoiler|Albero is Hugo's former commander and has been deeply affected by the death and mutation (for a lack of better words) of his son Foglia at the hands of the [[G Gundam|Devil Gundam]]. Having allied with Aqua's mentor, Eldy Mitte, Albero steals the mecha Medius Locus and decides to hunt down the Devil Gundam on his own. Over the course of game, Albero challenges Hugo and Aqua (having been sent by [[The Federation]] to capture him) because nothing will get in the way of his [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]]. Eventually, Albero assists Magneito Ten (the protagonist group of MX) in defeating the Devil Gundam. However, Eldy isn't quite pleased, believing Albero to a hinderancehindrance to her AI-1 project. Unknowingly, through the course of his actions, Albero wins the appeal of the AI-1 and tells Eldy off. Sadly, once the Medius Locus reaches its third transformation, AI-1 has grown so large it consumes the cockpit of the Medius Locus. Albero appears during the final battle and reveals to Hugo and Aqua he has no regrets over his actions and repeats the Cry Wolves' motto "Always come back alive". Albero is killed along with Eldy and the AI-1 when he activates the Medius Locus' self-destruct program}}.

* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: (Albero's color scheme is black, hence his nickname the "Black Wolf").

* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: (Albero's MX theme, "Crying Black", is rather dark and depressing, as well as not being all that awesome. OG Gaiden gives him "Shouting Black", complete with one of ''the'' most awesome [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oayG52YLV20 guitar riffs ever]).

* [[Early -Bird Cameo|Early Bird Playable Cameo]]: (In ''Original Generation Gaiden'').

* {{spoiler|[[Face Heel Turn]]}}: (Only in MX...so far).

==== Eldy Mitte (Voiced by Yuko Kobayashi) ====

A scientist obsessed with creating the perfect aritificialartificial intelligence. Eldy was Aqua's mentor, and was known as being strict; however, she will go to great lengths to see her research come to fruition. In MX, {{spoiler|she helps Albero hijack the Medius Locus on the condition he allow her to install her creation, AI-1. Since Albero doesn't really care, Eldy decides to help Albero in his quest to destroy the [[G Gundam|Devil Gundam]]. She encounters Hugo and Aqua several times (as they're sent to capture the Medius Locus), yet Eldy keeps her identity a secret in order to manipulate Aqua's emotions. When the Medius Locus transforms into its second form, Albero's quite disturbed by its resemblance to the Devil Gundam and questions Eldy's intentions, though she [[Hand Waves]] the notion of similarities}}.

{{spoiler|Over time, Eldy comes to the conclusion AI-1 isn't evolving fast enough and tries to eliminate all obstacles. With the Devil Gundam destroyed, Eldy decides to remove what she thinks is the last obstacle: Albero. However, AI-1 has grown attached to Albero and begs Eldy not to kill him. Stunned the AI-1 has become so sentient, Eldy nearly shoots Albero, until he slaps her and tells her to shut up (while at gunpoint, mind you). By the time AI-1 transforms a third time, it crushes the cockpit of the Medius Locus, along with Eldy and Albero. Eldy finally loses it and decides to merge with AI-1, hoping to complete its evolution. Before it can transform a final time, Albero self-destructs the Medius Locus, killing himself, Eldy and AI-1}}.

* [[Ax Crazy]] (: {{spoiler|Made more evident after she merges with AI-1. She cranks it [[Up to Eleven]] in MX in a peculiar way: damaging AI-1 enough that it's left with ''exactly'' 1 HP, Eldy has a special dialogue ''just'' for that moment, mainly where she laughs at how having only 1 hit point left means nothing to AI-1 or something along those lines. It's creepily hilarious}}).

* [[Body Horror]]: ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oM46_W0wwOk&fmt=18 This video] essentially demonstrates how AI-1's evolution transforms the Medius Locus from a normal mech into...well, see for yourself).

* [[Early -Bird Cameo]]: (''Original Generation Gaiden'').

* [[Genre Savvy]]: (See [[Ax Crazy]] entry).

* [[Good Hair, Evil Hair]]: (For the majority of MX, Eldy keeps her hair all nice and neat, even when being a villain. When she {{spoiler|merges with AI-1, she [[Letting Her Hair Down|lets it hang loose]], adding to her shift in [[Ax Crazy]]}}).

* [[Manipulative Bastard|Manipulative Bitch]]: (Eldy keeps her identity hidden from Aqua just to screw with her because Aqua's heavily emotional. Eldy's [[The Reveal|reveal]] manages to do it in such a way that it breaks Aqua's heart).

* [[Master Computer]]: (AI-1 slowly becomes self-aware and {{spoiler|becomes MX's true antagonist}}).

* [[Mid-Season Upgrade]] (: {{spoiler|The Medius Locus continues to evolve in subsequent encounters with the help of the AI-1}}).

* [[Nightmare Fuel]] (: {{spoiler|1=AI-1's second, third and final forms. In addition, the final attack of AI-1 is downright creepy as hell. First, it absorbs the opponent and blasts the target with some random orbs, all while a giant naked Eldy watches on. The attack is topped off with Eldy delivering a [[Kiss of Death]] to the opponent. Do remember all this happened during the early years of the PS2. One can imagine what the current PS2 capabilities can bring to this attack in the near future}}).

* [[Sentient AI Warning Signs]]: (Nos. 2, 10, 15, 17.1, 17.3, 20, 35 ( {{spoiler|4th form only}}), and 53. Although, #53 happened because {{spoiler|Eldy went crazily obsessed with making AI-1 more powerful}}, so it counts as a variation).

* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: (Is it Erde or Eldy?)

* [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]] (: {{spoiler|Eldy gives this to Albero after concluding AI-1 isn't evolving because of him and threatens to shoot Albero. She gets a dose of shock when AI-1 asks her to spare Albero; he drives the point home [[Shut UP, Hannibal|by slapping her]] in the face}}).
