JMF1336R Rising Gundam is a mobile fighter from Mobile Fighter G Gundam. Intended for Ulube Ishikawa's use, it was piloted only once by Rain Mikamura.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
Originally created during the development of Neo Japan's Shining Gundam, the Rising Gundam is sent to Earth not to compete in the Gundam Fight, but to battle the sinister Devil Gundam. Redesigned for real warfare instead of dueling, this mobile fighter is equipped with practical weapons like a long-range beam bow and a polearm-style heat naginata. The beam bow was used for one of the Rising Gundam's ultimate attacks, the Rising Arrow. Another ultimate attack included the Rising Finger, which shot out a ball of energy similar to the Bakunetsu God Finger used by the God Gundam. The Rising Gundam can also be converted to an aggressive Mobility Mode, in which its shoulder armor becomes a protective shield.
Armaments[]
- Vulcan Gun
- A pair of shell-firing armaments built into the head. They have low offensive power, and are only used to restrict enemy movement and lay down a wall of suppressive fire due to their rapid-fire capability.
- Machine Cannon
- Clavicle-mounted, rapid firing projectile weapons.
- Heat Naginata
- The Heat Naginata is a long pole with a blade attached to the end, and is used as a slashing weapon in close to mid-range combat. It can also be used as a defensive shield by rapidly spinning the weapon in a circle.
- Beam Bow
- A blue bow mounted on the left arm of the Gundam, it is only used when performing the Rising Gundam's ultimate attack, the Rising Arrow.
- Rising Shield
- When not in battle, it serves as the shoulder armor on the Rising Gundam. When a defensive position is needed in battle, the Rising Gundam's shoulder armor will release itself and form a long shield placed over the beam bow. However, the shoulder shield cannot be used when performing the Rising Arrow.
Ultimate Attacks[]
- Ultimate Bullseye Rising Arrow
- The Ultimate Bulls' Eye Rising Arrow is the Rising Gundam's ultimate attack. The beam bow will extend from its fixed position and form a guard around the left hand. The two limbs of the bow then extend and charge beam energy. Once enough energy is charged into the bow, a beam arrow will form in the barrel. If the Rising Gundam's shoulder armor is removed or damaged in battle, gold plated armor underneath is revealed similar to the Shining Gundam.
- Rising Finger
- Unlike the Shining Finger, which covers the entire hand of the suit with energy, allowing it to disable an enemy unit, the Rising Finger allows the fighter to shoot out a ball of energy.
- Sekiha Love Love Tenkyoken (石破ラブラブ天驚拳; "Rock-Breaking LOVE-LOVE Sky-Shocking Fist")
- Although not used by the Rising Gundam during the course of the show, many video games allow it to perform this variation on the Sekiha Tenkyoken by working together with Domon's GF13-017NJII God Gundam.
History[]
As the Battle Royale began, the Rising Gundam saw action when it was piloted by Rain Mikamura to assist Domon, her partner and Neo-Japan's Gundam Fighter, who was under attack by the mind-controlled Allenby Beardsley's Nobel Gundam. However, what she ended up facing was the Walter Gundam, one of the JDG-00X Devil Gundam's 'Four Heavenly Kings', that had disguised itself as the Nobel Gundam. In the end, the Walter Gundam was defeated by the Rising Gundam's Ultimate Bulls' Eye Rising Arrow. However, this battle left the Rising Gundam badly damaged.
