23	[[folder:Ibis Douglas]]
24	[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ibis1.png]]
25	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/AkenoWatanabe
26
27	The RealRobot heroine of ''Alpha 2'', Ibis Douglas is introduced as a delivery girl with really clumsy piloting skills, assisted by her friend and co-pilot Tsugumi Takakura. When one of her deliveries goes astray in a battlefield, she ends up helping the "[[HeroesRUs Alpha Numbers]]". Initially, Ibis is soft-spoken and prefers not to speak of her origins, but occasional encounters with a woman named Sleigh Presty out for her blood reveals a past Ibis has wanted to forget: she was a training pilot under "Project Terrestrial Dream" (Project TD), a space venture-turned-military project due to budget constraints, until an unfortunate tragedy pits her into HeroicBSOD. Ibis eventually makes amends with it and starts showing her potential: she's an exceptionally gifted pilot and convinces Sleigh to join her and the Alpha Numbers. In her story for ''Alpha 2'', she befriends the mysterious girl Irui and is deeply crushed when she departs in the ending. In ''Alpha 3'', Ibis reappears exclusively in the route for [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha3 Selena Recital]].
28
29	''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration'' [[AdaptationExpansion expands on Ibis' past before the accident in greater detail]]: she's a member of Project TD, yet is such a klutz when piloting, she's earned the monniker "The Shooting Star" as an insult since she constantly gets shot down in simulations. Despite this, she's chosen by project head Filio Presty to be the pilot of the prototype "Astelion", which enrages Sleigh, who believes she has more to offer and defects to the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Neo Divine Crusaders]]". Ibis pushes forward and contributes greatly to defeating the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Inspectors]]" and the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Einst]]". Before the "ODE Incident" in ''Original Generation Gaiden'', the Astelion is retooled into the "Astelion AX" (Advanced X), where she survives an ambush from Kyle Bean, a co-conspirator of [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Wilheim von Juergen]].
30
31	Like ''Alpha 2'', Ibis inherits Project TD's completed machine "Altairlion" months prior to the start of the ''Second Original Generation''. In contrast, Ibis does not develop HeroicBSOD like her ''Alpha'' counterpart, but is caught up with other events such as getting summoned into the world of "[[BeneathTheEarth La Gias]]" and fighting the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Gaia Sabers]]" following the "Langran CivilWar". To her horror, Sleigh has taken the "Vegalion", the companion craft to the Altairlion, and aligns with the Gaia Sabers, which Ibis resolves to snap some sense into her. In this {{Continuity}}, Ibis is the one who gives Irui a keepsake pendant (as opposed to the other ''Alpha 2'' protagonists, even though they get her share of attention as well).
32	----
33	[[hardline]]
34	* ACupAngst: Deliberately {{Invoked}} by fans as a by-product of MemeticMutation - Ibis is the only ''Alpha 2'' heroine who lacks a bouncy SuperMovePortraitAttack. {{Lampshaded}} multiple times in ''Original Generation 2'', where Tsugumi makes a mention of Ibis being "flat as as a surfboard", while in the ''Second Original Generation'', [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Jun Kanan]] states she's not interested in "slender body types" like Ibis.
35	* BadassNormal: {{Lampshaded}} in the games - Tsugumi states Ibis is completely normal compared to her peers who either have PsychicPowers, genetic modifications, BornLucky, etc. Despite this, she can keep up fairly well on account of skills alone (see MagikarpPower for more).
36	* BestForLast:
37	** Of the ''Alpha 2'' protagonists, Ibis waits the longest to receive a MidSeasonUpgrade; moreover, while the others earn theirs by a mid-playthrough, Ibis gains a stat boost and a new attack for the Altairlion instead. The actual "[[CombiningMecha Hyperion]]" upgrade doesn't appear until the tail-end of the character-specific scenarios. However, the Hyperion makes up for this by possessing a "MAP Attack", something other protagonists' {{Mid Season Upgrade}}s do not have, and a total of three pilots, meaning three sets of "Spirit Commands".
38	** Repeated again in ''Original Generation'' where Ibis goes through multiple prototypes (and taking the better part of ''three games'') before receiving the Altairlion, then the Hyperion, in the ''Second Original Generation''; contrast the other ''Alpha 2'' protagonists, who received their upgraded machines in ''Original Generation 2''.
39	* BigApplesauce: [[AllThereInTheManual Supplemental works]] cite Ibis' birthplace as New York City. Turns into DoomedHometown in ''Original Generation'' - it's mentioned two meteors fell to Earth before the arrival of "Meteor-3". New York City and Moscow were the locations.
40	* BittersweetEnding: Her ''Alpha 2'' ending [[spoiler:where Ibis is unable to save Irui from the destruction of the "Nashim Gan Eden"]], but {{Retcon}}ned in ''Alpha 3'' with Selena's story, just as the ending for [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlphaGaiden Sanger Zonvolt]] is {{Retcon}}ned by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha3 Touma Kanou]].
41	* CaptainCrash:
42	** {{Deconstruction}}; her tendency to crash is what winds up [[spoiler:with her accidentally killing her mentor Filio]]. Averted for ''Original Generation''.
43	** Hilariously used in the ''Second Original Generation'': one of the game's trophies is getting her shot down while in space.
44	* CharacterDevelopment:
45	** From a clumsy, grief-stricken girl to a determined, never-faltering AcePilot in the ''Alpha'' series.
46	** Her character growth in ''Original Generation'' is nothing to sneeze at: Ibis manages to top it off in the ''Second Original Generation'' [[spoiler:by not only outflying the Vegalion (canonically more agile than the Altairlion), but catching it and bringing it to a dead stop in the Altairlion's ''slower and less maneuverable "Doll Form", no less'']].
47	* FragileSpeedster: The "Astelion" in ''Original Generation 2'' outflies [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Aguija's Silverwind]], which is already a speed demon. A great compensation because the Astelion's armor is oh, so horrible.
48	* {{Flanderization}}: Ibis is ''not'' flat-breasted (she's a B-cup, at best); it's simply her bouncing animation is the least noticeable of the ''Alpha 2'' heroines and fans ran wild with it. When she appears in ''Original Generation 2'', it's official.
49	* HeroicBSOD: She's basically stuck in one of these [[spoiler:after accidentally killing Filio]], though she's rather good at hiding it in ''Alpha 2''. It takes a lot of motivation to get her out of it.
50	* InformedAttribute: Despite how much both the InUniverse characters and the fanbase tease her over it, Ibis is not actually flat. She just has the misfortune of being a b-cup in a WorldOfBuxom.
51	* {{Leitmotif}}: ''Ryusei, Yoru wo Kirisaite'' ("Shooting Star, Cut Through the Night"; localized as "Shooting Stars"); gets upgraded to "Ver. H" upon obtaining the Hyperion.
52	* LightningBruiser: The trophy mentioned in CaptainCrash? It's hard to unlock ''because'' of how mobile the Altairlion is, coupled with the unit ability "Mirror Image"[[note]]At 130 Will, gain a 50% chance of evading any non-MAP attack[[/note]], Ibis' own "Counter" pilot skill[[note]]If an enemy's skill stat is 20 points less than the pilot's, pilot will attack first when the enemy attacks[[/note]], terrain rating, and "Ace Bonus"[[note]]+1 to movement[[/note]]. With a few mobility-based equippable parts, nothing can touch Ibis once the Hyperion is in play, even on "[[HarderThanHard EX-Hard Mode]]".
53	* MacrossMissileMassacre, MoreDakka: Astelion's "Maneuver [=RaMVs=]", Astelion AX's "Maneuver [=GRaMDs=]", Altairlion and Hyperion's "Maneuver [=GRaMXs=]"
54	* MagikarpPower
55	** Ibis starts out really "slow", but when properly "raised", she's ''excellent''.
56	** To reiterate, Ibis' stat gains are horrible throughout the first half of ''Original Generation 2'', but should players reach level 50 with her, the gains become ''so significant'', she can become one of the top-tier characters. This is alluded to InUniverse with multiple references to her "piloting potential".
57	* MechaExpansionPack: Astelion AX, but is a subversion - [[http://static2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111009015542/superrobotwars/images/6/66/Astelion.png the original]] had over-sized shoulder boosters, whereas [[http://static2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111009015639/superrobotwars/images/2/21/Astelion_Ax.png the AX]] takes them out and is refitted with larger nacelles.
58	* PoweredArmor: Ibis' flight suit; justified due to the need to survive the extreme gravitational forces the machines can pull off.
59	* SuperPrototype: Subverted with the Calion in ''Original Generation 2'', the predecessor of the Astelion, an obviously inferior machine without the specifications of the latter and the succeeding Altairlion/Vegalion.
60	* SuperSpeed: Justified InUniverse - the Altairlion and Hyperion are equipped with "Twin Tesla Drives". The output of these drives isn't a simple "Tesla Drive x 2", but "Tesla Drive ''squared''"; the Hyperion is ''exponentially'' faster.
61	* SweetTooth
62	** An honest one: she loves [[TrademarkFavoriteFood cheesecake]]; ''Original Generation'' even gives her a unique character portrait after she takes a bite.
63	** Taken to its extreme in the ''Second Original Generation'': in a save-quit dialogue with [[Characters/MasouKishin Tytti Noorbuck]], Ibis is offered tea. Tytti, who also has a SweetTooth, adds in ''6 sugar cubes'' to it, yet Ibis doesn't mind. Tsugumi {{Lampshades}} on the absurdity of Ibis' taste buds and the fact these two ''never get fat'' because of it.

67	[[folder:Sleigh Presty]]
68	[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sleigh.png]]
69	-> '''Voiced by:''' Miki Nagasawa
70
71	Filio's younger sister, Sleigh is the talented, yet hellishly haughty AcePilot of Project TD who isn't afraid to showcase her skills and chew out the competition, such as Ibis. However, she means well: Sleigh hopes her scolding will make Ibis improve in the long run. Oh, and she likes [[LawOfChromaticSuperiority the color red]], thus to counter with Ibis' "Shooting Star" monniker, she's dubbed by her peers as the "Scarlet Comet". Yes, ''Scarlet'', not '''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Red]]''', because [[YouWannaGetSued it might get Banpresto into trouble]].
72
73	In ''Alpha 2'', after Ibis commits a fatal accident with sister machine Altairlion, Sleigh elevates her irritation into a [[ItsPersonal personal vendetta]]: taking the Vegalion with her, Sleigh appears from time to time to antagonize Ibis. Ibis, however, continues to grow skillfully, even outfly her, leading Sleigh to understand Ibis' plight, and combining their respective machines to form the Hyperion. In ''Alpha 3'', Sleigh is separated from her comrades, but encounters Selena, whom she befriends and later reunites with Ibis to fend off the invading "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Ze Balmary Empire]]" in their second attempt at conquering the Earth.
74
75	In ''Original Generation 2'', her story begins during her days as a test pilot for Project TD. [[AdaptationExpansion In an extension to her back-story]], Sleigh's piloting capabilities are ''so'' acclaimed she states she was scouted by the "[[AmazonBrigade Troye Unit]]" of the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists United Colony Corps]]" before the "[[CivilWar Divine Crusaders War]]", but declined in order to assist her brother with Project TD. She retreats when the Inspectors attack the Tesla-Leicht Institute, but discovers Filio chooses Ibis to be the pilot of the Astelion, not her (as she can tell, it's not colored red). Enraged and jealous as [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Ratsel Feinschmecker]] [[LampshadeHanging lampshades it]], Sleigh defects to the Neo Divine Crusaders, who are also planning to re-take Tesla-Leicht in hopes to rescue Filio. She encounters Ibis and quickly decimates her despite Ibis using the Astelion, but her memories as friends prevents her from killing her, causing Sleigh to somewhat fall from grace among the Neo Divine Crusaders. Although she indirectly assists Ibis and her comrades defeat the Inspector [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Vigagi]] at the "Moon Cradle", Sleigh departs, feeling unworthy to fight alongside Ibis. She makes a cameo in ''Original Generation Gaiden'', still as a member of the Neo Divine Crusaders, being chased by "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Bartolls]]" and the mysterious "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsMX Space Flounders]]" until she is saved by the crew of the ''Hiryu Custom'' battleship (fortunately, no Ibis in sight).
76
77	By the ''Second Original Generation'', upon hearing news of her brother's Altairlion legacy being bequeathed to Ibis, Sleigh takes the completed Vegalion (courtesy of "Isurugi Industries"). Although similarly summoned to La Gias, the Vegalion is spotted by Ibis and Tsugumi, but Sleigh does not reveal her identity as its pilot right away. Following the Langran Civil War, Sleigh is under the employ of the Gaia Sabers, and plans to defeat Ibis and take away the Altairlion. However, Ibis' continuous increase in skills and the fact the Gaia Sabers reveal themselves to be a less favorable faction, Sleigh becomes disillusioned and defects from them, yet wants to settle the score with Ibis once and for all. Ibis not only proves she is the better pilot, it convinces Sleigh to join her and the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Steel Dragon Battle Group]]" to fight the Gaia Sabers and otherworldly invaders.
78
79	In the ''Alpha'' series, she uses the Vegalion, and later as one of two co-pilots for the Hyperion; in ''Original Generation'', Sleigh begins with the Calion before using the Vegalion.
80	----
81	[[hardline]]
82	* TheAce: Is the top pilot with Project TD, and she makes sure everyone remembers this.
83	* BigBrotherWorship: It gets to a point in ''Original Generation'' where it seems Sleigh believes her brother can do no wrong. It's also {{Deconstructed}} - [[spoiler:the death of Filio becomes the climax of her irritation towards Ibis, whom he favored over his sister, forcing her FaceHeelTurn until she's knocked some sense into her]].
84	* CharacterDevelopment: Though not as much as Ibis, Sleigh goes from a haughty, brother-worshipping, easily jealous borderline-AlphaBitch into a level-headed AcePilot who considers Ibis a real friend instead of an "inferior rival".
85	* GreenEyedMonster: Loads of this for her ''Original Generation'' counterpart in regards to Ibis; she gets over it.
86	* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Especially in ''Original Generation'' - she goes from Divine Crusaders -> Project TD -> Neo Divine Crusaders -> Mercenary work -> "[[Characters/MasouKishin Shutendonias Army]]" (unofficially) -> Gaia Sabers -> Steel Dragon Battle Group
87	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Sleigh is very confrontational and easy to anger, but for the most part, she means to give good criticisms for others to improve. This trope becomes a PlotPoint when Sleigh can't bring herself to kill Ibis even when she has plenty of opportunities to do it. This finally enables her to listen to reason and rejoin her.
88	* TheLancer: Not only for Ibis post-HeelFaceTurn, but also Selena in her ''Alpha 3'' route.

92	[[folder:Arado Balanga]]
93	[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arado.png]]
94	-> '''Voiced by:''' Kazuya Kaichi
95	-->'''Seolla''': ''"Do you know how big I was worried back then?!"''
96	-->'''Arado''': ''"... [[BuxomBeautyStandard As big as your breasts maybe?]]" (SLAP!) "Ow!"''
97
98	The male hero of the RealRobot route of ''Alpha 2'', Arado Balanaga looks less like an AcePilot since he mostly [[IdiotHero acts like a complete moron]], which pisses off his {{Tsundere}} partner Seolla Schweizer, but [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass pushing the right buttons and he turns into a complete badass]]. Oh, and [[BornLucky the "God of Luck" smiles upon him like no other]] (except maybe [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Kyosuke Nanbu]] and [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Tasuku Shinguji]]). His story in ''Alpha'' starts out with him as a member of the "[[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Titans]]" along with Seolla, but due to circumstances, he ends up with the Alpha Numbers, realizing the folly of continuing to support the faction, even convincing Seolla to abandon the Titans. Along the way, he befriends Irui and is entangled in the "Sealing War" with the guardian of the Earth. By ''Alpha 3'', he and Seolla tag along exclusively with the enigmatic [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha3 Cobray Gordon]], helping him recover his lost memories.
99
100	In ''Original Generation'', Arado is one of the "Boosted Children", an alumna of an ex-[[TheFederation Earth Federation]] facility called "The School", designed to train children and teenagers into pilots through harsh mental exercises and physical training. Designated as "Bronzo-27", he, Seolla and [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Ouka Nagisa]] are drafted into the Neo Divine Crusaders with their "instructors". Arado is intent on finding any Boosted Children survivors of the program, particularly "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Latooni-11]]", and following a crazy stunt to protect Seolla that gets his mech shot down, he narrowly survives, but is taken by the crew of the ''Hagane''. To his surprise, Latooni-11, now going by "Latooni Subbota", is among the battleship's pilots. After being convinced The School and Neo Divine Crusaders are manipulating him, Arado [[HeelFaceTurn defects]] to the "Earth Federation Army", now intent on getting Seolla and Ouka out from their clutches. Like ''Alpha 2'', he manages to bring Seolla back, despite heavy MindManipulation. In the end of ''Original Generation 2'', [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Kai Kitamura]] drafts him into the reformed "Aggressors".
101
102	For ''Original Generation Gaiden'', Arado is captured by the Bartolls during the ODE Incident and though saved, he witnesses new comrade [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Lamia Loveless]] destroyed in a surprise attack by Wilheim von Juergen. Arado resolves to fight harder to honor Lamia, even stopping new ally [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Kouta Azuma]] from going on a lone, suicidal mission to save his younger sister [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Shouko Azuma]]. He continues to serve the Aggressors in the ''Second Original Generation'' when old faces from The School appear among the Gaia Sabers, except they're decidedly [[{{Jerkass}} less pleasant]] than Ouka, Seolla or Latooni and antagonize the Boosted Children.
103
104	In ''Alpha'' and ''Original Generation'', no one knows what kind of machine best suits Arado, since all he does is employ blitz-based tactics, hoping for a successful DeathOfAThousandCuts. Fortunately, he settles with the Wild Würger.
105	----
106	[[hardline]]
107	* AdaptationExpansion: At the end of his story in ''Alpha 2'', Arado states to Seolla he wishes to find the missing members of their training regiment during their time in the Titans. ''Original Generation'' takes this ending and implements it into The School sub-plot with Latooni and Ouka.
108	* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Since in the ''Original Generations'' series he got a whole bunch of new relations with the School children (Latooni and Ouka, especially), Arado no longer interacted that heavily with Irui in ''2nd Original Generations'' unlike in ''Alpha 2'', he had considerably less interaction times with her compared to the other protagonists in ''Alpha 2'' (Kusuha, Sanger, Ibis).
109	* BigEater: Can eat three helpings in one sitting. He's also one of the few people to say [[GargleBlaster health drink]] concocted by [[Characters/SuperRobotwarsAlpha Kusuha Mizuha]] is...* shudder* ...''delicious''. Hilariously implied he can stand the drink because he lacks taste buds.
110	* BerserkButton
111	** Seolla's well-being - harm and/or insult her in any form and Arado will make the instigator(s) regret hurting the partner he's been trained since birth to work alongside.
112	** [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Archibald Grims]] trips a smaller one briefly in ''Original Generation 2'' when he calls Arado by his School designation.
113	* BornLucky: He carries the innate "Lucky" pilot skill in ''Original Generation''; it's also part of some of his plot-driven events.
114	* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Pretty much Banpresto's poster boy of this trope. InUniverse, his statistics are relatively sub-par, but motivate him enough or if his fellow School friends are in danger, his skills accelerate to near-AcePilot levels. {{Lampshaded}} in ''Original Generation 2'' by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Yuuki Jaggar]] after he sees Arado rushing to help Seolla in a "[[MechaMook Lion F]]" during live combat, noting Arado never did anything like this during a simulator.
115	* DeathOfAThousandCuts: Wild Würger's "Victim Beak" (localized as "Raptor Wings"); {{Retool}}ed post-ContinuityReboot in ''Original Generation'' where the attack is not done by the wings, but through the Würger's "Cold Metal Sword" as it flies at extreme speeds and dices up its target.
116	* EpicFlail: [[spoiler:During the escape from Mao Industries on the moon in ''Original Generation 2'', he's given a Boost Hammer to hold off the Inspectors. It's the best weapon to come by when all Arado ever does is DeathOfAThousandCuts]].
117	* GenerationXerox: The Würger in ''Original Generation'' to the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Alt Eisen]] - both machines are suited for melee combat, with a similar left-hand machine gun cannon, a unique right-hand mounted weapon and can execute an exclusive CombinationAttack ("Twin Bird Strike") with a long-ranged, bombardment-based unit. {{Lampshaded}} InUniverse as the Alt's combat data is the basis for the Würger's design. Unlike the Alt, it uses the Huckebein chassis instead of a Gespenst's, and is a FragileSpeedster instead of a tanker.
118	* GlassCannon: Arado has the stats of a SuperRobot pilot rather than a RealRobot pilot, meaning he can't evade well, but does exceptional damage and carries a good defense stat. Unfortunately, the Wild Würger has poor armor compared to other reals (even ''with'' the Würger's unique "Full Upgrade Bonus" and armor-enhancing parts). Most players will compensate by putting evasion-increasing parts on the Würger, instead.
119	* {{Leitmotif}}: "Ace Attacker Ver. W"; upon receiving the Wild Würger, "Wild Flug"
120	* MeaningfulName: {{Subverted}}; "Würger" means "shrike" in German, a bird of prey that feeds on insects by impaling them on thorns. In ''Original Generation'', [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationOthersAndWalkingSpoilers Doctor Marion Radom]] decides a PileBunker like the "Revolving Stake" from the Alt Eisen on the Würger is ineffective for Arado to use, so replaces it with the scissors-like "[[ShearMenace Stag Beetle Crusher]]".
121	* MidSeasonUpgrade: In ''Alpha 2'', Arado begins with a [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Zaku II]], then moves on to a powered-down Huckebein MK III, then upgrades to the Wild Würger; in ''Original Generation'', Arado starts with the R-Blade before moving onto the Würger.
122	* NoOneCouldSurviveThat: Some of the things that happen to this kid are just plain crazy, like [[spoiler:surviving an exploding Lion simply because his ejector seat malfunctioned, preventing him from being incinerated by the blast]].
123	* ThePowerOfLove: Despite the BelligerentSexualTension between the two, he and Seolla are the only other couple aside from [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Kyosuke and Excellen]] to have a mutual rank 3 love bonus in ''Moon Dwellers''.
124	* ShedArmorGainSpeed: By default, the Wild Würger's excess "Jacket Armor" is [[ArmorIsUseless useless]]. However, it can be purged, expanding its wings during Victim Beak for a sudden burst increase in mobility and speed.
125	* SuperSoldier: Implied throughout ''Original Generation'' - due to his conditioning and enhancements from The School, Arado's so outrageously strong he could've overpowered anyone on the ''Hagane'' when he is captured. It's more of an InformedAbility, however, as either dumb or exceptional luck's usually the reason why he survives multiple shot downs.
126	* StockShonenHero: Arado is basically this trope's take when it comes to ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' (as a reminder, he used to be the main protagonist of one route [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha in a game]]). He's an IdiotHero with [[AnimeHair spiky hair (if combed a bit low)]], he's a definitive BigEater, a {{Determinator}} to a great degree to protect his friends (with some doses of [[BornLucky unnatural luck]]) and he looked like a SuperRobotGenre protagonist who's told to be a RealRobotGenre protagonist: his BookDumb-ness translates into being poor in shooting-based combat (especially long range) which requires tons of calculations and his preference to 'go by instinct' means he works better with close/mid-range weapons, usually melee weapons found in many Super Robot shows.
127	* ThemeNaming: Each of the Boosted Children's "classes" are named after metals. Arado's part of the Bronzo-class, to which "bronzo" means "bronze" in Italian.
128	* TrainingFromHell: Before his peers can settle on what proper mech to give him, Arado is forced to go through with this in ''Original Generation''.

134	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/YumiKakazu
135
136	Another AcePilot of the Titans in ''Alpha 2'', Seolla is Arado's partner. When Arado defects and joins the Alpha Numbers, Seolla becomes his [[TheRival combat rival]] for the duration of the game, treating him as the enemy and goes out of her way to kill him. Unfortunately, when the Titans leave her behind, with morals catching up to her, her view of the world starts crashing down on her, delving into HeroicBSOD before Arado convinces her to turn from the Titans and join him. By ''Alpha 3'', along with Arado, Seolla meets Cobray and assists exclusively in his story.
137
138	In ''Original Generation'', Seolla is designated "Bronzo-28" of The School and joins Arado, Ouka and their instructors with the Neo Divine Crusaders. One such instructor named [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Agilla Setme]], in an attempt to boost her fighting skill after Arado's stunt which leaves Seolla believing he's KilledOffForReal, subjects her into BrainwashedAndCrazy via loads of FakeMemories and MindManipulation, thinking Arado is completely an enemy. Fortunately, Arado proves Agilla's mind-wiping methods don't work, and manages to snap her out of her stupor. She assists him and his allies in retaking the Earth Cradle. At the end of ''Original Generation 2'', she joins Arado as part of the reformed Aggressors and is always seen with him, including getting captured by and rescued from the ODE Incident in ''Original Generation Gaiden''. By the ''Second Original Generation'', she also gets to face against the nastier Boosted Children of the "Argent-class" of The School from the Gaia Sabers.

140	For a girl her age, Seolla has notably large cleavage, thus is very sensitive about it, but Arado will frequently find a way to make fun of them, which leads to one form of pummeling. In ''Alpha'' and ''Original Generation'', to counterbalance Arado's crazed, melee tendencies, Seolla uses long-range mecha. Eventually, the Wild Würger's counterpart Wild Falken is handed to her.
141	----
142	[[hardline]]
143	* BeamSpam: Wild Falken's "Ochstan Rifle W Mode" is a rapid-fire variant.
144	* BuxomBeautyStandard: Has an impressive bust, which is frequently pointed out by Arado, which she's usually embarrassed by. This becomes a PlotPoint in ''Original Generation 2'' - by sheer reflex, Seolla tells Arado to stop talking about her breasts, then immediately wonders what she just said, proving Agilla's use of FakeMemories aren't working.
145	* CantLiveWithThemCantLiveWithoutThem: Justified in ''Original Generation'' - Bronzo-class students work in pairs and are more combat effective when both partners are with one another. When Arado is thought to be KilledOffForReal, Seolla automatically enters HeroicBSOD, forcing The School instructors to sedate and reprogram her for single combat.
146	* GenerationXerox: The Falken in ''Original Generation'' to the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Weiss Ritter]] - both machines are suited for long-ranged combat, uses a SwissArmyGun firing beam- and solid-based rounds and can perform an exclusive CombinationAttack with a melee-based unit.
147	* GoofyPrintUnderwear: Teddy bear panties, as revealed in ''The Inspector''
148	* HeelFaceTurn: Particularly PlayedForDrama in ''Original Generation'' compared to her ''Alpha'' counterpart
149	* HeroicBSOD: Several times throughout ''Original Generation'' - when Arado takes a hit and she believes he's dead, she physically shuts down (though considering she was in the Neo Divine Crusaders, this is more of a VillainousBSOD). Upon re-encountered members of the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists "Argent"-class Boosted Children]] in the ''Second Original Generation'', their HannibalLecture turns effective until [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Michiru Hanaten]] [[ShutUpHannibal tells them off]].
150	* LargeHam: Although not as much as Arado, she does have her moments. Check out her Gespenst Kick quote, which combines this with her {{Tsundere}} tendency towards him.
151	-->'''Seolla''': "A-ra-do you... '''IDIOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!'''"
152	* {{Leitmotif}}: "Ace Attacker Ver. W"; once she receives the Wild Falken, "Wild Flug".
153	* ThePowerOfLove: Despite the BelligerentSexualTension between the two, she and Arado are the only other couple aside from [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Kyosuke and Excellen]] to have a mutual rank 3 love bonus in ''Moon Dwellers''.
154	* MsFanservice: Slightly trumped by Excellen, but induces enough that Banpresto endorsed her image to be used on Japanese hug pillows.
155	* ShipTease: The games don't explicitly confirm they're a couple, even if the two are together all the time. Regardless, [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther Arado makes it clear to Seolla he can't be anywhere without her]].
156	* SwissArmyGun: Wild Falken's "Ochstan Rifle" (localized as "Oxtongue Rifle")
157	* {{Tsundere}}: Type A - goes "tsun" on Arado, but enters "dere" mode whenever she's alone

165	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/YojiUeda
166
167	Sleigh's older brother and fiance to Tsugumi, Filio Presty is a talented researcher at the Tesla-Leicht Institute. Credited as the innovator behind the flight-capable "Tesla Drive", Filio is also the head of "Project Terrestrial Dream", a personal venture of his intended for deep-space exploration, but due to budget concerns, the project is rendered as part of the military. Filio's work with Project TD results in the creation of the Altairlion and Vegalion. Unfortunately, he does not live to see the fruition of his dreams.
168
169	In ''Original Generation'', urged by his close friend [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Elzam von Branstein]], Filio joins [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Bian Zoldark]] and the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Divine Crusaders]]", developing the "Lion" series and its multiple variants. Following the "L5 Campaign" against the Aerogaters, Filio moves Project TD to Isurugi Industries, the only company willing to take them in due to his previous ties with the Divine Crusaders, but is forced to relocate back to Tesla-Leicht when the Neo Divine Crusaders pose a threat to his work. In this {{Continuity}}, Filio completes the Calion and Astelion prototypes as the first units of Project TD before the succeeding Altairlion; additionally, he develops a pair of "Fairlions" commissioned by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Princess Shine Hausen]]. At the end of ''Original Generation Gaiden'', Filio unveils the completed Altairlion, ready for its first phase of testing.
170	----
171	[[hardline]]
172	* BeyondTheImpossible: In ''Original Generation 2'' and ''The Inspector'', during the Dygenguard's debut, the machine fails to use the default "Tactical-Cybernetic Operating System", thus Filio reboots and reprograms the actual "JINKI-1" operating system ''in a matter of seconds'', just before Vigagi can get a bead on Sanger. [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationOthersAndWalkingSpoilers Jonathan Kazahara]] {{Lampshades}} how it shouldn't be possible to do what Filio just did.
173	* JustInTime: Sanger may be the one who defeats Vigagi, but without Filio reprogramming the Dygenguard to even move, the former would have been killed.
174	* InSpiteOfANail: [[spoiler:In the OG continuity, the testing accident that claims Filio's life in the Alpha continuity does not occur. Despite this, Filio still succumbs to an incurable illness he had contracted long ago and kept secret from everyone.]]
175	* {{Otaku}}: Supposedly, Filio got the inspiration for the Fairlions because he is an idol otaku. In fact, the "[[CombinationAttack Royal Heart Breaker]]" is based on [[RealMenWearPink a special dance he came up with Jonathan]].
176	* PosthumousCharacter: [[spoiler:In ''Alpha 2'', Filio is tragically killed in an accident by Ibis during the first test flight of the Altairlion; for ''Original Generation'', Filio succumbs to illness shortly before the start of the ''Second Original Generation'']].
177	* ThemeNaming: Each Project TD HumongousMecha is named after a heavenly body - "Asterion", "Altair" and "Vega" are stars, while "Hyperion" is one of Saturn's moons.

187	[[hardline]]
188	* DCupDistress: Distress is probably pushing it, but she does not look happy when Ibis tells talks about how her nutrition goes straight to her chest. Ibis knows she's mad when she counters by pointing out how it's a condition Ibis would [[ACupAngst never understand]].
189	* TheFashionista: Tsugumi loves to dress people up, despite their objections.
190	* HiddenBuxom: According to Ibis in ''Original Generation 2'', everything she eats goes to her bust (in contrast to [[Characters/MasouKishin Lune]], where it becomes muscle), something her very conservative attire hides fairly well.

200
201	TheRival to Sanger in ''Alpha 2'', Kukuru is an unwilling servant of the "[[Anime/KotetsuJeeg Jamatai Kingdom]]" and appears exclusively in his route. On orders from her masters, she attacks the Earth Cradle and kills nearly everyone there except Sanger and [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlphaGaiden Sophia Nate]], capturing the latter, but makes it look like she is KilledOffForReal, sending Sanger into a RoaringRampageOfRevenge after he awakens. After fighting him several times, Sanger begins seeing her plight, but Kukuru refuses any form of pity, culminating in a final battle where Sanger spares her. Unfortunately, she is attacked by interlopers and in her dying breath, Kukuru reveals Sophia is alive and well.
202
203	Kukuru reappears in the ''Second Original Generation'' in another subservient role, this time to the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Garden of Baral]]. This {{Continuity}} provides an origin for her: Kukuru was a princess of an ancient Japanese empire until it was attacked and destroyed by Baral centuries ago. With her kingdom in ruins, Kukuru is promised by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha3 Son Ganlong]] of her parents' resurrection if she fulfills their new duties by working for Baral. She retains most of her rivalry with Sanger in the ''Second Original Generation'', but her consistent failings forces Ganlong to send the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists TouTetsuOu]] after her. until Sanger drives it away. No longer bound to the chains of Baral, Kukuru [[HeelFaceTurn aligns with the]] Steel Dragon Battle Group.

208	* AntiVillain: Crosses Type I and IV. She's confident and merciless as a villainess, but beneath that lies a tortured individual (see [[spoiler:ForcedIntoEvil]]), [[spoiler:as well as feeling disgusted at some of her Jamatai masters' questionable acts. However, [[DontYouDarePityMe she completely refuses to be pitied in any form by her enemies]], no matter how much she's forced to do their bidding]].

211	* ForcedIntoEvil: Every incarnation of her - [[spoiler:she's fighting because her old kingdom was destroyed by her current masters (Jamatai Kingdom or Baral) and promised something dear to her would return (her honor or her parents, respectively) if she continued to serve them, not to mention her life was threatened when they demanded her service (in the ''Second Original Generation'', Kukuru recalls she was on the verge of being consumed by the [=TouTetsuOu=] when she made the choice)]].

234	[[caption-width-right:225:Top to bottom: Nashim Gan Eden, Kanaf, Keren and Zanav]]
235	-> '''Voiced by:''' MAYA (Nashim Gan Eden)
236
237	Originally a pair of planetary defense systems powered by a pair of incredibly potent "[[PsychicPowers Psychodrivers]]", the "Gan Eden" were created by "[[{{Precursors}} The First People]]" to protect the world against "[[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt Apocalypses]]". However, they only barely saved The First People from a massive meteor shower and the "[[Anime/{{Gunbuster}} STMC]]" (Space Terrible Monster Crowd), thus The First People tasked the Gan Eden with a new mission: seed life on another habitable planet.
238
239	After wandering around the galaxy and settling on a world later named "Balmar", the Psychodriver "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha3 Augustus]]" belonging to the "Gebel Gan Eden" remained to protect Balmar while the "Nashim Gan Eden" and its user returned to their homeworld, better known as Earth, having felt homesick for their ancient residence. The returning priestess of the Nashim Gan Eden discovered most of the remaining First People had left the planet in her absence, but the bloodline of her creators had mixed with the budding, younger race of humanity. Nevertheless, the priestess and the Nashim stayed to protect their homeworld and its current inhabitants, who consider the Nashim a supreme deity.
240
241	The Gan Eden were devoted to their duties as worldly protectors: with Augustus, he created twelve artifical moons called ''Neviim'' to help him defend Balmar, while the priestess and the Nashim Gan Eden created twelve mechanical gods called ''Choukijin'' ("Super Mechanical Gods") and blessed a further four man-made ''Choukijin'' to help her protect the Earth. Unfortunately, Nashim suffered badly while repelling an invasion of the "Hundred Evils", forcing her to hibernate for thousands of years, while losing most of the original ''Choukijin''. Back on Balmar, Augustus was still active until he sensed how The First People perished, becoming part of the "[[Anime/SpaceRunawayIdeon Ide]]". Realizing the hopelessness of fighting against the calamity of fate, he attempts to seize power equal to the Ide. Choosing a Balmarian boy named [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha3 Ruach]] to become his proxy, Augustus departed from Balmar, eventually becoming the entity known as "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha3 Keisar Ephes]]".
242
243	To assist the Gan Eden, the Nashim and Gebel are accompanied by the "Kanaf", "Keren" and "Zanav", a trio of "Custos" taking on the appearance of a bird, fish and tiger, respectively.
244	----
245	[[hardline]]
246	* LightEmUp: All of their attacks involve blasting their foes with divine energy.
247	* {{Leitmotif}}: "Twin Icon" for the Nashim Gan Eden, "Custos" for the uhh... Custos.
248	* ScaledUp: Like in Irui's entry below, the Gebel Gan Eden also transforms into a huge (pink) dragon for its strongest attack, "Catch the Sun". Oddly though, the ''entire'' machine transforms into the beast, instead of just the pilot as in Irui's case.[[note]]The most likely reason for this discrepancy is that Gebel Gan Eden has more than one main pilot over the course of the story.[[/note]]
249	* ShoutOut: Gebel's and Nashim's strongest attacks, "Catch the Sun" and "Follow the Sun", respectively, are possibly references to the tokusatsu series ''Series/TaiyouSentaiSunVulcan'' - Both names are lines from the series' theme song. Additionally, the three heroes were codenamed "Eagle", "Shark" and "Panther", which happen to be the animals the Custos are based on.
250	* DeityOfMortalCreation: The Gan Eden were built by the First People in their own image.

256
257	A young girl whom the chosen protagonist of ''Alpha 2'' encounters in the middle of a battlefield, Irui is taken under his/her care in the Alpha Numbers. However, her prescence triggers the strange entities called Custos to appear sporadically near the Alpha Numbers, whether it's attacking them or assisting them against their enemies. Day by day, Irui, while [[{{Moe}} adorable]] and kind-hearted, starts falling ill which culminates in her disappearance. When she reappears, Irui takes on the figure of an adult woman, claiming herself as "Irui Gan Eden", the priestess to the "Guardian of the Earth", none other than the titanic mobile weapon Nashim Gan Eden.
258
259	With the Garden of Baral, Irui triggers the "Sealing War" in an attempt to protect the Earth permanently from extra-terrestrial invaders to prevent the world from being placed in danger like it was in the ancient past. [[MultipleEndings Depending on the chosen protagonist]], the younger Irui may be rescued (Arado or Kusuha's endings) or destroyed (Ibis or Sanger's endings) along with the Nashim Gan Eden. Fortunately, ''Alpha 3'' {{Retcon}}s all ''Alpha 2'' endings by bringing Irui back, who is NotQuiteDead, appearing in the final scenario of the game with the Nashim Gan Eden in tow to help defeat Keisar Ephes.
260
261	Irui appears in the ''Second Original Generation'' and the same events from ''Alpha 2'' occur, except all of the ''Alpha 2'' protagonists get to collectively interact with her. While she is the FinalBoss in the normal route of the game, triggering the hard route reveals Irui and the Nashim were anticipated by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Euzeth Gozzo]]: following the Nashim's defeat, Euzeth (as [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationOthersAndWalkingSpoilers Arteil Steinbeck]]) takes the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsMX AI-1]]" and absorbs the Nashim Gan Eden, transforming it into the "Adamatron" for his use, [[HijackedByGanon displacing Irui]] as the TrueFinalBoss. Fortunately, Irui's power holds the Adamatron at bay long enough for the Steel Dragon Battle Group to destroy it and Euzeth. Despite the destruction of the Nashim Gan Eden, Irui is rescued from the mobile weapon by Garden of Baral member [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Hou]]. The ''Second Original Generation'' ends with Irui hopeful she can meet her friends in the Battle Group again someday.
262	----
263	[[hardline]]
264	%%* AmnesiacDissonance
265	* BreakTheCutie, {{Brainwashed}}: Done lots of times by various villains in ''Alpha 2'', but she always recovers. This is absent in the ''Second Original Generation''.
266	* ElegantGothicLolita: A textbook example.
267	* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: In the ''Second Original Generation'', when the Steel Dragon Battle Group is brought to its knees by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsDestiny Perfectio]], Irui communicates with them via her psychic abilities to not give into despair.
268	* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Especially when she's around Sanger.%%; taken to a point where fans assume Sanger's become a paedophile when he adopts her at the end of ''Alpha 3''.%%
269	* ScaledUp: The Nashim Gan Eden's strongest attack, "Follow the Sun", doesn't actually involve it at all - Irui exits the machine and [[OurDragonsAreDifferent transforms herself into a white dragon]] that towers over the already immense Gan Eden.
270	* PsychicPowers: The most powerful Psychodriver on Earth; at one point in ''Alpha 3'', Irui teleports the Alpha Numbers from a crumbling dimension after [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Ryusei Date]] fails to do it, and she does this while weakened, still suffering from her BreakTheCutie process.
271	* RedemptionDemotion: Averted - provided the requirements for the TrueEnding are met, when she rejoins in the final fight against Keisar Ephes in ''Alpha 3'', she comes in the Nashim Gan Eden with the same FinalBoss statistics from ''Alpha 2'' alongside its six digits of {{Hit Point}}s.
272	%%* ShrinkingViolet
273	* SpannerInTheWorks: Euzeth doesn't count on Irui gaining such affection for the Steel Dragon Battle Group, nor her abilities being potent enough to prevent the Adamatron in the ''Second Original Generation'' from achieving its full power when she frees Ing from the Adamatron with a HeroicSacrifice.
274	* SpellMyNameWithAnS Is it "Gan Eden" or "Gun Eden" or "Ganeden"? At the very least, it's ''not'' "Gun Eden"; "Gan Eden" is Hebrew for "Garden of Eden", while "Nashim" means "women" (plural). The phrase "Nashim gan Eden" makes no sense in Hebrew, but presumably the developers meant to say something akin to the "woman of/from the Garden of Eden".
275	* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: In ''[=OG2nd=]'', the animation for "Follow the Sun" shows the now-colossal dragon-form Irui standing on the surface of the [[FloatingContinent Garden of Baral]], roaring triumphantly as she looms over her opponents... before her [[SquareCubeLaw immense weight]] causes the ground beneath her to collapse and she [[{{Bathos}} comically falls into a sinkhole]]. This does not prevent her from using her tail and claws to drag you into the pit with her.
276	* TykeBomb: If it wasn't for the Alpha Numbers/Steel Dragon Battle Group, she would have caused the coming of Armageddon.
277	* WellIntentionedExtremist: The Alpha Numbers and Steel Dragon Battle Group don't buy into Irui's attempt at sealing the Earth from external forces as they believe such an act will lead to the halt and stagnation of human evolution, which depends on mankind heading away from the Earth; simultaneously, it would leave the space colonies defenseless against hostile extraterrestrials.
