Mo-Shogun

Mo-Shogun is styled after a classical Japanese samurai, its frame echoing the armor and bearing of an ancient warrior. The machine belongs to the core Gunman lineup that Team Dai-Gurren fields, and Makken sits in its cockpit. A large blade defines both its silhouette and its fighting style.

The Gunman's primary armament is an oversized katana, and it can also bring the Kamina Sword into a fight. A heavier configuration known as the Space Mo-Shogun wears thicker plating and trades the single blade for a matched pair of katana, better suited to combat beyond the atmosphere. When Makken and Leite restored the machine, they equipped it with weaponry powered by Spiral energy.

Makken serves as the pilot throughout the machine's service. After the human military switched over to Grapearls, the older Gunmen were assumed lost, yet Makken and Leite had quietly recovered several and kept them running. When the Mugann first threatened the group, Makken was the first to answer in his freshly rebuilt unit. His final act came when he drove the Gunman straight into an Anti-Spiral missile, sacrificing himself to shield the Super Galaxy Dai-Gurren.
