Technical
and Historical Notes
|
The monstrous
JDG-00X Devil Gundam that lurked in the shadows of the 13th
Gundam Fight was originally intended for a more noble purpose.
As designed by the Kasshus, the Ultimate
Gundam was supposed to use its nanotechnology to restore
the battered Earth to its original condition. However, while
Kyoji Kasshu tried to keep it out of the hands of Ulube Ishikawa,
a system malfunction caused the Ultimate
Gundam to transform into the Devil Gundam. The Devil Gundam
seized Kyoji and used him as the core life unit to power its
own self-evolution. After arriving on Earth, the Devil Gundam
was found by Master Asia, the former King of Hearts and winner
of the 12th Gundam Fight. Angered at the damage done to Earth
by the Gundam Fight, Master Asia hoped to use the Devil Gundam
to destroy humanity and restore the Earth to its original condition.
The constantly
evolving Devil Gundam came with several armaments, including
head vulcans powerful enough to destroy a mobile fighter and
a beam cannon that could destroy many mobile suits at once.
However, it usually fought by creating the mass produced Death
Army mobile suit line, Gundam Head
weapon or the Gundams of the Four Heavenly Kings. This was accomplished
with the use of the nanotech DG cells, which had the power to
create weapons, resurrect corpses, control living humans and
repair the Devil Gundam. The Devil Gundam was secretly moved
to the Shinjuku area of Neo Japan's Tokyo, and this eventually
caught the attention of the Neo Japan space colony. Gundam Fighter
Domon Kasshu and his partner Rain Mikamura were sent to investigate
and eventually discovered that Master Asia had become a servant
of the Devil Gundam. After the Devil Gundam left Tokyo, it followed
Domon Kasshu to South America's Guyana Highlands, where he had
gone to train to fight Master Asia. After a fierce battle, Domon
destroyed the Devil Gundam with his GF13-017NJ
Shining Gundam.
However,
Master Asia and Neo Hong Kong's Wong Yun Fat were in league
and secretly transported the Devil Gundam's remains to Neo Hong
Kong. Wong himself wanted to restore the Devil Gundam so that
he could make himself the ruler of the universe. There was one
problem: Domon's attack had injured Kyoji's body so severely
that he was virtually worthless as a core life unit. Wong's
research revealed that as a giver of life a woman was the best
choice as a core life unit, and he planned to use Neo Sweden's
Allenby Beardsley. On the other hand, Master Asia was convinced
that Domon was the right choice as a core life unit. As the
Battle Royale began on Lantao Island, the Devil Gundam was resurrected.
Domon again destroyed the Devil Gundam, this time with his GF13-017NJII
God Gundam. After the Gundam Fight ended with Domon as the
winner, Ulube transported the Devil Gundam back to space for
his own ambition. Following Wong's notes, he used Rain Mikamura
as the core life unit and resurrected the Devil Gundam, making
it more powerful than ever before. In its new form, the Devil
Gundam merged with the Neo Japan space colony to form the Colony
Devil Gundam. With the power of the space colony, the Devil
Gundam began to attack Earth and destroy entire cities. Domon
penetrated the interior of the colony with his God
Gundam and rescued Rain by admitting his love for her. Without
a core life unit, Domon was able to finally destroy the Devil
Gundam completely.
