This is a page about the characters appearing in the SuperRobot Main/{{Anime}} Main/{{Combattler V}}. Just as a warning, this page probably contains spoilers.

The [[TagAlongKid children of Nanbara Connection's cook]], who show up after the midpoint of the series. They played the role of [[ComicRelief comic relief]], giving the latter half of the series a much more comedic tone than the serious first half. Along with their pet frog, Keroppe, they sometimes pilot the sidekick machine Kerott into battle. They are voiced by Masako Nozawa and Noriko Tsukase, respectively.

Janera's [[TheDragon scientific and strategic advisor]], and Dungele's older brother. He coordinates the building and selection of the Magma Beasts that are sent to fight Combattler V.

When he is defeated, [[BrainUploading his brain is transferred into a robot body]], which he then [[TakingYouWithMe self-destructs to kill Janera]]. His [[MeaningfulName name]], pronounced "Warukimedesu" in Japanese, rather than being partly based on the English word "war", may be better regarded as a portmanteau formed from "waru" (meaning "evil") and "Arukimedesu" (Archimedes), thus epitomising the classic sci-fi concept of a [[MadScientist great but evil scientist]]]].
