Klimton Nicchini (クリムトン・ニッキーニ Kurimuton Nikkīni?), also known as Klim Nick (クリム・ニック Kurimu Nikku?), is an iconic character from the Gundam Reconguista in G anime series. He is originally a Lieutenant on the Megafauna, then he later becomes a captain on the Salamandra.
Personality & Character[]
Klim Nick is a confident individual that often calling himself a genius. He does this so frequently, makes the other members of the Megafauna crew mockingly refer to him as "Genius Lieutenant." He does also respects the skills of other talented pilots such as Mick Jack, who often pokes funny at his slow and uncritical thinking ability implicitly, and Bellri Zenam but refuses to let them outshine him.
Klim is ambitious, wanting to take control of Earth's government. He can also be quite manipulative, as seen when he used Mick to excite the pilots of the Salamandra or when he tricked Raraiya Monday into piloting the G-Self.[1] He does care about his allies though, always aiding Mick Jack when she is in danger.
Skills & Abilities[]
Although other characters mock him for not living up to his self-proclaimed title, he is actually competent. He prides himself on his piloting skill, good looks and tactical skills. In his first run of the Dahack, he was able to take down eight enemy Wuxia and defeat an ace pilot from the Venus Globe who knew about the specs of his suit and was amongst the people who created it.
History[]
After returning from the mainland, Klim reached Megafauna but decided to follow up on the failed mission in the Capital Territory after hearing the news about Captain Cahill's death. Ignoring Captain Donyell's advice, he heads out in his Montero and engages in battle against Dellensen Samatar and the Capital Guard. During the battle, Aida escapes in the G-Self, bringing Bellri, Noredo Nug and Raraiya Monday with her. The pair reunite and head back to Megafauna.[2] Klim is unable to accept that Bellri and Raraiya could pilot the G-Self besides Aida, while he was unable to, and forces Bellri to pilot it. In the meantime, the newly formed Capital Army attacks and Klim faces them alongside Bellri. Although the duo win, Klim acknowledges Dellensen's skill as a commander and tells Bellri that he will need to grow stronger.[3]
Klim attempts to convince Bellri to join the Pirate Corps, but refuses to accept his condition of joining only if he is made a lieutenant as that would make them the same rank. He faces Mask and his new Elf Bullock in battle, but is overpowered.[4] Klim goes to space alongside the rest of the Megafauna crew where he helps Bellri defeat Dellensen.[5] After returning to Earth, he decides to test Raraiya and manipulates her into piloting the G-Self, but the Capital Army soon attacks and Klim faces them in battle. Though Bellri and Aida come to his aid, they are still pushed into a corner, but are rescued by the Armorzagan.[6] Klim leaves the crew with Mick under orders from Ameria, leaving his Montero behind.[7]
As the Amerian Army begins its advance on the Capital Tower, Klim is given command over the Salamandra. He is joined by Mick, and he pilot his custom Space Jahannam into battle against the Capital Army.[8] They later attempt to take over Sankt Porto, a plan that almost goes awry when Mask and his men target the Salamandra in their absence. They are joined by Gusion Surugan as they try to get Gel Trimedestus Nug and the others to give them the resources to acquire photon batteries, but their conversation is interrupted after the Towasanga fleet destroys an Amerian ship as a warning.[9]
Klim decides to take the enemy leader in order to make the fleet withdraw, and agrees to a common front against the new enemy with the Capital Army. His plan is to draw closer while pretending to surrender, then take out the leader which would cause the rest of the fleet to scatter. The plan fails and they were attacked, forcing them to withdraw back to Sankt Port. Klim and the others join in the negotiations, where he gets into a fight with Rockpie Getty.[10] Using the Garanden and Megafauna as decoys, Klim and the Salamandra head for the moon.[11]
They travel alongside the Megafauna and aid them in battle. When they reach Cyrano-5, the Salamandra is docked at a different wharf from the Megafauna. Klim and the others enter Towasanga in their mobile suits, but are ambushed by the Dorette Fleet and captured.[12] Once they found out that Klim was the son of the president, they started to treat the crew like VIP's. Klim decided to try and make them into his allies, and though the Garanden soon reached Cyrano-5 he confidently thought he could do it before the Capital Army.[13] When the Capital Army once again goes after the G-Self, he and Mick head out to back up the Megafauna. Rockpie and his crew soon arrive and stop the conflict, as the Crescent Ship is on the way. All the combatants instead focus on clearing the space debris in order to clear the way for the ship before it arrives.[14] They get into another battle against the Capital Army when they attack the Megafauna, but when two opposing Towasanga forces join the fray, the battle becomes more complicated and Klim is ultimately defeated by Rockpie's Gaitrash.[15]
Klim eventually returns to the Earth Sphere, where Noutu Dorette takes Gel Timedestus Nug as a hostage and boards the Kashiba Mikoshi. Mask captures the Kashiba Mikoshi and gets Gel back, chasing off Noutu,[16] then leaves the ship behind in order to get their hands on the Full Moon Ship's firepower after it enters the Earth Sphere. Klim assesses that they need to take down Mask before the Capital Army make contact with the new group, and Mick complains about how both the Capital Army and Towasanga are aiming for the Salamandra even though the Crescent Ship and Megafauna have entered the picture. When the Capital Army attack with their Wuxia, he supports Mick as she defends the Salamandra from their attacks. He intercepts Rockpie when the Dorette Fleet joins the battle, once again battling his Gaitrash. Klim soon decides to withdraw and let their enemies destroy each other.[17]
After reuniting with the Pirate Corps, Klim is given the Dharma and Dahack. He and Mick then take their new mobile suits to the Rattle-Python and complain to Gusion about the alliance with the Dorette Fleet, but he indirectly tells them that they will finish them off when they are further weakened. When their fleet attempts to meet with the Dorette Fleet, they are unable to communicate due to Minovsky Particles and anticipate a battle against the Capital Army. They defend themselves when the Yggdrasil attacks.[18] After the Yggdrasil is destroyed, they head towards the Full Moon Ship. Noticing the Knossos is also heading there, Klim decides to speed up. He soon faces the Capital Army and G-IT Corps alliance, and they struggle against the enemy's advanced weaponry. They return to the Salamandra as the combatants are caught by Earth's gravitational field and pulled in. After descending, Klim abandons the Dharma and uses the Dahack hidden inside of it for the remainder of the battle.[19]
Klim attacks
They head for Bellri who is being attacked by Mask, but instead opt to face Kun Soon and Chickara Dual who also attempt to intervene in the battle. As the Capital Army unleash their mobile suits on the Amerian Army, Klim and Mick head back to support their comrades and wreak havoc upon the enemy. They run into Kun and Chickara again, but Mick is caught by the Mazraster's beam whip and electrocuted. She apologizes to Klim for not being strong enough, but he breaks the beam whip and proceeds to kill Chickara. Kun is shocked at the death of her friend, and Mick uses the opportunity to cut off the Mazraster's arm. Kun retreats and although Mick tries to follow her, Klim stops her and tells her to withdraw. She objects as his mobile suit is also injured, but Klim tells her that she would only get in the way when he tries to get revenge for her against the black mobile suit.[20]
After the war, Klim returns home to Ameria in the Crescent Ship as it travels around the world. He is angered that his father, the President, would send his own son to die in order to further his own agenda and tells Steer to land the ship on his father. She complies and his father is presumable killed. He later leaves the Crescent Ship on a glider together with Mick.[20] They intend to travel the world on a yacht after having their child.[21]
Relationships[]
Bellri Zenam[]
Klim was initially sceptical about Bellri being able to pilot the G-Self even though he was unable to and felt the need to test him. After battling alongside Bellri, Klim grew to acknowledge and respect his skills.
Mick Jack[]
The pair are often seen together. Klim respects her skills in battle and trusts her to watch his back, and takes her advice seriously. They share a romantic relationship.
