Letz Kobayashi is a character from Mobile Suit Gundam.
History[]
One Year War[]
Born Letz Cofan, he is one of three orphans brought on board the White Base during the One Year War, along with Katz and Kikka. The three orphans become fast friends and a combination of mascots and troublemakers for the ship. While aboard, they are present for several major events, including Ramba Ral's last ditch attack on the ship, as well as Char's infiltration of Jaburo, where they helped to dispose of the bombs. While there had been talk of transferring the orphans off the ship, their help in the latter incident lead to their being allowed to stay on the ship, even when she left Earth to return to space for the final offensives at Solomon and A Baoa Qu . After the battle ended, the three kids showed their Newtype abilities, reaching out to allow Amuro to find the lifeboat on which the White Base crew had escaped the ship.
Gryps Conflict[]
Following the One Year War, Letz was adopted by Hayato Kobayashi and his wife Fraw Bow, along with Katz and Kikka. The three visited Amuro Ray's home in Cheyenne, Wyoming before continuing on to Japan. He stays close to his adopted mother, helping her with the unborn child Fraw is carrying.
U.C. 0094[]
Unlike Kikka, who goes to space to pursue her studies as a journalist, Letz would remain with Fraw and her daughter at the Kobayashi home at Shizuoka. A year after Amuro's supposed death at the Second Neo Zeon War, Letz would greet Kikka as she arrived on her Christmas break. Like Kikka, he would be surprised when Fraw turned down the opportunity to join the Federation memorial of those that fell in the war against Zeon, including Amuro.
