History Characters / GaoGaiGar

* CatchPhrase - "Waha!"
* KidHero - He's nine years old when the series start.
* HairColors - He is usually brown-haired, but his hair turns green when his powers activate.

* HolyHandGrenade: Although his purification abilities are mainly used to revert Zonderised humans to normal, they can be used as a weapon, as seen in FINAL [[spoiler: when he vapourised Pei Le Cain]].

* [[spoiler:RogueProtagonist - In FINAL, although it turns out to be a subversion since it was actually an EvilCounterpart, and the real Mamoru was far, far away from Earth at the time]].
* TookALevelInBadass - In spades
* ToyShip - There is tons official material suggesting a love relationship between him and Hana.
* VeronicaTaylor - English voice actress

* HardGay - Possible subversion, as his sexual orientation is never even remotely hinted at.
* HotBlooded - Perhaps even rivaling Guy's. However, he's also 3G's mission planner and keeps a cool analytical mind in this capacity.
* TheBigGuy - Barring Guy and perhaps Mamoru, he is the only major human(oid) member of 3G that does any form of direct fighting. Justified, in that he has a a military background; 3G seems to consist of civilians.
* TedBaxter

* ChristmasCake - Her age isn't given, but she considers the 20-year-old Guy as too young to go after.
* DumbBlonde - Subverted, she is actually rather competent.
* ForeignFanservice
* MissionControl

!Kosuke Entouji

* HeterosexualLifePartners - Tends to act this way towards Volfogg.
* MissionControl
* [[UglyGuyHotWife Ugly Guy Hot Girl]] - Just ''how'' did he get Papillon?

* MissionControl

Mamoru's adoptive parents. Isamu actually works at the Aerospace Corporation (GGG's front)

* MuggleFosterParents

Mamoru's classmate who seems to have a long-standing crush on him. Tends to get caught up in [[{{Robeast}} Zonder Robo]] attacks more times than is probably healthy.

* DogWalksYou
* ToyShip
* WeirdnessMagnet

!Sueo "Ushi" Ushiyama

* SmugSnake (shows signs of growing into this. That is, if Reiko hasn't humbled him out of it by then)

Somewhat stuck-up classmate of Mamoru and Hana. Her family is even richer than the Takayasus, and she takes great delight in one-upping Sunou or otherwise deflating him whenever he starts bragging.

* TheLibby (Just a little bit, and usually directed at Sunou).
* TheNicknamer / FunWithAcronyms- Comes up with acronyms for just about anybody. Especially attractive males.

* AttackReflector / CatchAndReturn: [=EnRyu's=] Mirror Shield.

** Also, [[spoiler:SUPER NOVA!!]]
* CombiningMecha: "Symmetrical Docking!"

* HeroicSacrifice: [=ChouRyuJin's=] primary objective is saving lives - if his life is all it takes to save a few lives, he'll deflect meteorites with his body.

* RedOniBlueOni - [=HyoRyu=] being the blue one and [=EnRyu=] being the red one

* [[spoiler: TheSlowPath: How they come back from a HeroicSacrifice]]

* {{Ninja}} - Justified, as he actually belongs to GGG's intelligence department and was designed around intelligence gathering and recon. (Interestingly, Volfogg is closer to RealLife ninja while Big Volfogg resembles a fictional one.)

!Goldymarg
Part of a system designed to protect Gao Gai Gar from the effects of the Goldion Hammer. Goldymarg was built to carry the Hammer, which is incorporated into his construction, into battle. As he's built specifically to withstand the power of the Goldion Hammer, Goldymarg is the toughest and strongest of the GGG robots. Given the short time of his creation, his AI was based on Geki Hyuuma rather than being developed from scratch like the others.

* TheBigGuy - Has no weapons other than his fists and his nigh-indestructible body in mechanoid form. Knows how to use them.

* ChaoticGood - He even lampshades this when he flat-out admits that he never really was good at following orders, and it did help the others out a lot. (Of all the GGG mecha corps, he's probably best qualified to decide which orders to follow...)
* DropTheHammer - Hell, he ''is'' the Hammer!
* GeniusBruiser - It doesn't come up much (Goldy's very much aware that he's the FinishingMove), but he IS based on GGG's mission planner. He does exactly the right thing when the 31 Primevals attack Orbit Base, for example.
* HotBlooded - Well, his personality IS based on Geki Hyuuma, so...
* SwissArmyWeapon - The handle of the Goldion Hammer is the barrel of his tank form's gun. The tires of his tank form produce (Mirror particle?) 'nails' in hand form.
* TankGoodness - His vehicle form is that of a tank.

![=FuRyu=] & [=RaiRyu=] / [=GekiRyuJin=]
Brother machines to [=HyoRyu=] and [=EnRyu=] developed by GGG China (Chinese Scientific Aeronautics Division). Their vehicle forms are a Cement Mixer and Dump Truck respectively. When enhanced by '''[[color:orange: THE POWER]]''', they can do a cross-Symmetrical Dock with their brothers to form [=GenRyuJin=] [[=HyoRyu/RaiRyu=] and [=GouRyuJin=] [=FuRyu/EnRyu=].

* ArmCannon - [=FuRyu's=] mixer barrel cover's [=GekiRyuJin=] (and [=GouRyuJin=])'s arm.
* BlowYouAway - [=FuRyu=]
* CombiningMecha
* HotWings - Shan Tou Long / Maximum Tou Long
* RunningGag - [=EnRyu's=] problem carries over to [=RaiRyu=].
* ShockAndAwe - [=RaiRyu=]
* SkySurfing - [=RaiRyu=] rides his dumper to fly.

* WindIsGreen - [=FuRyu=], natch.

* OrcusOnHisThrone: Doesn't take direct action against the GGG, until episode 30.

* AIIsACrapshoot - He IS a zonderized computer, after all.

* NightmareFuel [[supersecretspoiler: at least before his purification]]

* ChestBlaster Chest Thriller/Warmer
* CombiningMecha

* RunningGag: [=EnRyu=] never seems to be able to land properly.
* [[spoiler: TheSlowPath: How they come back from a HeroicSacrifice]]

* CombiningMecha: Big Volfogg
* HelicopterBlender: Big Volfogg's Murasame Sword
* KatsuyukiKonishi: His seiyuu (it was his first role).
* {{Ninja}}
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot - Almost literally even, since he is a ninja police robot.

* LethalJokeCharacter - Contrary to show tradition, he is introduced as pretty goofy and completely harmless in his introduction episode, but he gets his own first CrowningMomentOfAwesome by the next episode after his first System Change.

As he's built specifically to withstand the power of the Goldion Hammer, Goldymarg is the toughest and strongest of the GGG robots. Given the short time of his creation, his AI was based on Geki Hyuumam rather than being developed from scratch like the others.

* ChaoticGood - He even lampshades this when he flat-out admits that he never really was good at following orders, and it did help the others out a lot.

* SwissArmyWeapon - The handle of the Goldion Hammer is the barrel of his tank form's gun.
* TankGoodness - His vehicle form is that of a tank
* TedBaxter

* AGlassInTheHand: A RunningGag involves him crushing his communicators.

* HotBlooded - Perhaps even rivaling Guy's
* TheBigGuy - Barring Guy and perhaps Mamoru, he is the only major humanoid member of 3G that does any form of direct fighting as part of his job.

* BigBrotherInstinct: Go ahead, hurt Mamoru in his presence. See what happens. Him pulling out his Will knife and cutting you to ribbions is a BEST case scenario. Worst case scenario? GOLDIOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNN CRUUUUUUUSHEEEEEEERRRRRRR!!!!

* TheWoobie: after TheReveal in the TV series, Mamoru wasn't sure of his powers as he was earlier in the show, especially since Mamoru was unable to help out his friends for a time because he was unable to detect Primevals nor purify Zonder Crystals. once TheReveal happens Mamoru [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman has problems coming to grips with not being a real human boy]]. but after a CrowningMomentofHeartwarming first with his parents, both with accepting him to go off and do what he needs to do and explaining his MeaningfulName, and another when Hana accepts him for what he is, things get somewhat better for him...until FINAL. where after failing to reason with the 11 Planetary Lords of Sol, he had to [[spoiler: prepare Galeon and the G-Crystal for 3G to defeat the Sol Lords, he also needed to keep the Pas-Q Machine out of their hands, Mamoru created a replicant of himself so he could get the Q-Parts to earth, and also evade capture from the Sol Lords, both Soldat J and his replicant copy were captured. especially gut-wrenching is his replicant was chained up and given a PsychoSerum by [[http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/8793/vlcsnap2010121204h28m09.png Palparepa]] who then goes to retrieve the Q-Parts on earth, attacking Orbit Base and killing Pappilon in the process. this leads to Replicant Mamoru fusing with Replicant Galeon and making the older Star GaoGaiGar to fight Guy in GaoFighGar.]] and later, real Mamoru must [[spoiler: fight his own father, Cain, whom he vaporises after finding out Pei la Cain was just a copy in the restoration program.]] then we get to the ending with Mamoru and Kaidou are [[spoiler: sent back via THE POWER and the last ES Missiles back to Jupiter's orbit, while Guy and the rest of 3G are stranded in subspace.]]

* TheWoobie: He shares this status with Mamoru, due in part to FINAL's BittersweetEnding, but there are other examples too. Most notably in FINAL, Kaidou was captured by Palus Abel, whom used him as a power source for Pia Decem Pit. not only was he [[spoiler: used to send an OverrideCommand to Soldat J's J-Jewel,]] but in a twisted strategy by [[{{Smug Snake}} Palus Abel,]] whenever King J-Der [[spoiler: does damage to Pia Decem Pit, the [[{{HumanShield}} damage will be inflicted directly upon Arma/Kaidou.]] ]] his cries of pain are very gut-wrenching. but after a while, [[spoiler: J says [[{{CrowningMomentofHeartwarming}} "Arma is a Warrior as well! He won't long survive me if we're defeated!"]] ]]

* Expy - Of [[{{Cyborg009}} Cyborg 002]].

* EvilGenins

* OrcusOnHisThrone: Doesn't take direct action against the GGG, himself until episode 30.

* CompleteMonster: as a master of chemical warfare, it comes with the territory. if the Paras Particles and using the Chemical Bolts on Guy wasn't enough. the reason Mamoru's decoy is [[BewareTheNiceOnes doing what he does in Episode 2]], is because Palparepa very evilly used a syringe full of PsychoSerum on poor Mamoru. (just imagine if Mamoru hadn't used a decoy...) [[http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/8793/vlcsnap2010121204h28m09.png]]
