Personality & Character[]
Gundam Build Divers[]
A kindly Diver who volunteers as a navigator, helping beginner Divers who have just started GBN to enjoy playing the game. Matching the impression given by his appearance, Magee instantly brings people together and catches them up in his own pace.[1] Besides being a sanctioned GBN navigator, he is also currently ranked 23rd for best GBN Diver in the world.[2] He is a member of the Adam's Apple force.
Gundam Build Divers Re:RISE[]
One of GBN's veteran Divers, although he hates being referred to that way. Magee operates his own bar within GBN, where he exchanges information with anyone, whether beginners or higher-ranked players. In particular, he seems to have a special relationship with May.[3]
In real life, he operates a bar in Tokyo where Queen Bee works as a barista and which Nanami Nanase frequents. His bar has a small house for May on the premises.[4]
Skills & Abilities[]
Magee has achieved the following awards and rankings.
- 5th Gundam Fight Event Rank 3
- Battle of A Baoa Qu Event Rank 30
- Diver Fashion Contest Special Jury Award
- Fair Play Award
History[]
Magee was a spectator at the 14th Gunpla Force Tournament Finals match between Avalon and the 7th Panzer Division. He was at a concession stand when Avalon's victory was announced [5].
Some time later, Magee meets new GBN players, Riku Mikami and Yukio Hidaka. After introducing himself, Magee gave the pair a tour of GBN and helped navigate them through their first mission. Subsequently, the boys received an SOS that led them to a girl named Sarah in the middle of an icy wasteland. As Magee instructed them to use Guest Mode to bring her back in their Gunpla, suddenly, another Diver, Do-ji appeared behind them, claiming a stomach ache. As Riku impulsively fell for his ploy, Magee and Yukki realized too late that he was being tricked into choosing Free Battle Mode. He immediately identified Do-ji as the Diver targeting beginners. Magee urged the boys to Battle Out, vowing to avenge them, but Riku refused to back down. Through their teamwork, the boys emerged victory, and Magee hugged them in a tearful embrace upon their return to the Lobby Tower.[2]

Notes & Trivia[]
- While Magee is usually referred to with masculine terms, he does not seem to mind being referred as a woman or a lady. This is notably demonstrated when Sarah calls him a 'pretty lady', which he seems to love. He also referred to himself as "onee-san" (literally "older sister" but also a way for a child to refer to an older woman) when introducing himself to Riku and Yukki, which could mean that Magee is actually a transgender woman or genderfluid.
- An article on the English Gundam Info website referred to Magee using the gender-neutral "they/them" pronouns.[6]
- His Japanese voice actor, Taishi Murata also voiced Norba Shino in Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS. Interestingly, both characters pilot a pink-colored Gundam.
- His English voice actor, Doug Erholtz also appeared in IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS, voicing Akihiro Altland.
