Nastasha Zabigov (Наташа Забигов) (ナスターシャ・ザビコフ) is a character that appears in the TV anime Mobile Fighter G Gundam.
Personality[]
Nastasha is an iron woman with a no-nonsense personality. A competent and able commander, she is ruthless, intimidating and fearless. Not one to tolerate failure, she is willing to use whatever methods necessary to achieve her goals and her county's victory.
However, she also has strong moral values and a sense of honor. She was perfectly willing to put aside nationality and work with her fighter's rivals if faced with a greater threat (mainly the Devil Gundam). Nastasha is also highly intelligent and a great leader. An excellent strategist and tactician, her strategic plans have given Domon and the others a fighting chance on more than one occasion.
History[]
A military officer of Neo Russia, she participated in the 13th Gundam Fight as a coach of the Neo Russian team. She treated Argo Gulskii (a Gundam Fighter with a history of being a space pirate) as a prisoner and used him to lure in other Gundam Fighters who would then be imprisoned. After learning of the Devil Gundam, she was quick to change her priorities and tried to get her superiors to acknowledge the threat. At the Guiana Highlands, she worked together with the Shuffle Alliance and helped formulate a plan to break out of Master Asia's trap. She also looked after Rain Mikamura on the way to Neo Hong Kong after she fell ill.
However, as Argo awakened his martial spirit through battle, she came to reveal her compassionate side, and gradually came to share her heart with Argo. In the great battle to recover the colony of Neo Japan from the Devil Gundam, she took the initiative in sending the newborn Shuffle Alliance into space and commanded the battle against the Devil Gundam. She even supported Argo in the battle. Incidentally, a small bomb was placed in Argo's chest to prevent his escape, and the detonator was left to Nastasha, but before the decisive battle, Nastasha disarmed the bomb on her own initiative. This is a symbol of the deep trust between the two of them.
After setting Argo and his friends free, she commands the space transport ship Gorby II and the Shuffle Alliance, including their supporters. Following the Devil Gundam Incident, she leaves the military and becomes a space pirate in Argo's crew. In addition, it seems that she kissed him on the cheek in the ending.
Relationships[]
Argo Gulskii[]
She is Argo's support and watchdog. Though strict with him in the beginning, she gradually develops feelings for Argo. Eventually, she starts to disagree with the methods her superiors use to control Argo, and over time Nastasha opened up to Argo's fights, and they became so close that she said, "One victory belongs to both of us".
