It doubles as a Chekhov's Skill since he actually used this technique against Gato in the second episode as well, against the GP02's shield.
Nice Guy: Even when Nina backstabs him in order to stop him and Gato from killing one another, he doesn't have the guts to shoot her.When that one's destroyed, the crew of the Albion is forced to hijack the GP03 Dendrobium for Kou to use against Gato's Neue Ziel. First, when the GP01 is trashed by Cima's Gelgoog Marine after he takes it into a space battle that it's not designed for, it's subsequently turned into the space-use GP01Fb. Mid-Season Upgrade: He gets this twice.
I Let You Win: Even Gato starts to speculate that even with Kou and the Albion's constant attempts to stop him, it seems too easy.He did it because of pride and trying to prove himself. Idiot Hero: Kou, mostly for trashing Unit 1 for little reason, as it hadn't been modified for space combat yet and in the end he had to be saved himself.Grand Theft Prototype: He hijacks the GP03 Dendrobium when the station it's in testing at won't let it go to continue the hunt for the Delaz fleet.And unlike the Newtype pilots, he has some difficulty adjusting with the machine at first. He's already a trained MS pilot when he's forced to use the GP01 Gundam the first time. Hell, he doesn't even manage to kill Gato, and in fact the only named character he kills in the climax is him turning on an ostensible ally. Failure Hero: While he kills a lot of mooks over the course of the series, he ultimately fails to complete any of his actual mission objectives - Gato gets the GP02 off planet, succeeds in the nuclear assault on the fleet review, and performs a Colony Drop on North America.
While he is a newly-graduated officer with the rank of Ensign at the start of the series, it's the higher-ranking Lieutenants like Burning and later Monsha who are put in charge of Mobile Suit operations on board the Albion. Determinator: For all the bad things that happen to him through the course of the series, he still manages to keep going and prove his badassery further.Butt-Monkey: Even after taking a level in badass, he still suffers this.Badass Normal: Unlike most UC Gundam protagonists, he's not a Newtype, but racks up an impressive amount of kills.Awesomeness by Analysis: He's quite good at improvising on the spot.He quickly ends up Falling into the Cockpit of the GP01 in an attempt to stop the hijacking of the GP02 by Zeon remnants, and begins chasing Anavel Gato across the entire Earth Sphere and beyond. Voiced by: Ryo Horikawa (JP), Paul Stephen (EN)Īn Earth Federation pilot who joined up after the One Year War, beginning the series as an aggressor pilot used in testing and training.
