The ZGMF-1017 Un'no's GINN is a custom variation of the ZGMF-1017 GINN introduced in the manga Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Astray R and is piloted by Un'no.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
A modified version of a GINN that was discarded during the Battle of Yggdrasil, it was used by Un'no to protect the abandoned colony "Graveyard" from looters and intruders. Emergency repairs were made to the GINN's damaged body due to a lack of parts. Un'no himself is a skilled swordsman, and his GINN's armament includes two Japanese swords, a "Gerbera Straight" Katana and a "Tiger Pierce" Wakizashi. The "Gerbera Straight" was later given to Lowe Guele, and Un'no then relied on the "Tiger Pierce" as his GINN's only armament. As a Natural, Un'no was hardly able to pilot the GINN as it was designed for Coordinators, and fought only with simple movements such as swinging down his sword. However, with his skills, he was able to defeat several of the newly developed ZGMF-600 GuAIZ with his GINN.
Armaments[]
- "Gerbera Straight" Katana
- A mobile suit-sized katana and the main weapon of Un'no's GINN before it was damaged. Unlike the MA-M3 Heavy Blade used by the standard GINN, the Gerbera Straight is extremely sharp, and does not rely on the kinetic energy of a high-speed swing to cut through its targets.
- "Tiger Pierce" Wakizashi
- A blade that is shorter than a katana but just as sharp, serve as the main weapon for the repaired GINN.
History[]
This machine was used by Un'no to protect the Graveyard. Six months before Lowe Guele and his comrades arrived at the colony, Un'no's GINN and its Gerbera Straight was damaged when fighting with raiders. The GINN was later patched up but the MS was damaged again in another raid, this time by ZAFT soldiers who were sent to retrieve the rare metal found earlier by Lowe.[1]

Notes & Trivia[]
- Although the "Tiger Pierce" is originally shown to be shorter than "Gerbera Straight", subsequent appearances of it show it to be as long as the latter.
- Despite Un'no's first appearance in SRW W he never uses his custom Ginn rather uses a regular Ginn with its standard broad sword. This is due too Un'no not being a playable character.
