Revision as of 19:57, 23 July 2016
Sleggar Law (スレッガー・ロウ Sureggā Rōu?) is a supporting character from the Mobile Suit Gundam television series and the Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin manga.
History
One Year War
Sleggar was assigned to White Base as it was departing from Jaburo. He was an ace pilot and brilliant gunner, frequently spending his time operating either the G-Fighter or White Base's main cannon. He had a strong, cheerful, flirtatious and brutally honest personality. He repeatedly hit on the female crew members such as Mirai and Sayla, but also tried to defend Mirai from what he thought as mistreatment from her fiance Cameron Bloom.
He had a brief romance with White Base navigator Mirai Yashima which started during the battle of Solomon. Sleggar felt that Mirai was too wonderful and deserved better than someone like him, so he rejected further advancement. He gave her a ring that belonged to his mother before he headed out to battle. During the subsequent battle, Sleggar battled the Big Zam mobile armor along with Amuro and was killed when the cockpit to the G-Fighter was shattered.
Mobile Suit Gundam Gihren's Ambition
In the strategy game "Gihren's Greed", if Sleggar survives the One Year War, he will resurface in the second half of the game as a member of the AEUG alongside his former White Base compatriots, wearing a Zeta Gundam era pilot suit in blue (his personal color) and yet in conversing with some of his teammates (e.g. Amuro, Sayla) he is considered to not have changed much from his carefree personality seven years ago.
