Romario Monini is a character that appears in the TV anime Mobile Fighter G Gundam.
History[]
He is the Gundam Fighter representing Neo Portugal in the 13th Gundam Fight International Tournament. His appearance is that of a rotund clown, and fittingly, he also entertains spectators in a traveling circus. However, despite his clownish appearance, Romario is a deceptive, calculating pilot, researching opponents to gain a mental edge over them, while using his clown facade to cause them to underestimate his skills. He uses honorific but condescending language and has an eerie smile. Romario can copy any person's ability, no matter the complexity, which in turn extends to his own Gundam, mimicking other Gundams' weapons. Upon copying others' moves and abilities, he would use them as his attacks to catch his opponents off guard. This mimic's ability is not without its flaws, as both his Jester Gundam and himself don't have the same physical abilities as their opponents, but are incredibly dangerous under his command. Combined with his research to gain a mental edge over his opponents, this becomes his main tactic.
Aside from mimicry, he does have his trademark moves focused on his surprising agility and speed. He at one point defeated George de Sand in a Gundam Fight by mimicking his rose bits. In another encounter, he had a fistfight of sorts against Domon Kasshu whom he easily irritates and nearly catches off guard. He later fought Chibodee Crocket and his Gundam Maxter, but not before causing severe psychological stress, causing mental defeatism due to Crocket's history and fear of clowns. However, he would be defeated by Chibodee, who overcomes his fears with the aid of the Chibodee Gals. Romario would later return to cause trouble for the new Shuffle Alliance during the Battle Royale on Lantau Island, only to be ruthlessly killed by DG-cell infested Marcelot Cronos' Zeus Gundam.
