Kamujin Kuravushera:
The ruffian who embodies the blood of the Zentrādi.

Personal Data - Zentrādi:
Attached to: Zentrādi Forces
Gender: male
Birthplace: under investigation

The Division Commander of the Bodoru Main Fleet 109th Branch Fleet 7th Space Armoured Division. Although his combat skills are high as he has an especially wild and impulsive personality even among the Zentrādi, he also calmly sacrifices friendly forces. In addition, he is loose toward discipline. Also, he drinks alcohol and acts violently, and has a career history of causing the deaths and injuries of a fleet's officers and men. (Although he acquired the nickname "Ally Killer" from that personal history, Kamujin personally is rather pleased with it.) As that can also be said about "Kamujin's Family" -the entire fleet that was under Kamujin-, that Fleet was in a state similar to having been demoted until Commander Buritai Kuridaniku invited Kamujin to be under Buritai's control in the pursuit of the Macross.
Kamujin harboured dissatisfaction toward the tactics of Buritai and Rapu Ramizu that concentrated on intimidation and diversion in the pursuit of the Macross, and many times he arbitrarily carried out extermination operations. In the decisive battle with the Bodoru Main Fleet, Kamujin opposed becoming allied with the Macross, and although he was temporarily estranged by them, he eventually turned around and backed them in the battle. However, after the war, he conspired with Rapu Ramizu, and plotted a plan of rebellion against the New Unified Government.

Caption: Kamujin, who has great combat abilities because he is belligerent, constantly battles on the front line. Despite being a high grade officer, he also undertakes such things as hand-to-hand combat on his own initiative, and there's even a record of him mounting a Destroid Monster like it was a horse.

Caption: It is Kamujin who thought of Miria Farīna as the virtuoso pilot needed to go into the Macross. This led to the meeting of Miria and Maximilian Jīnasu.

Character Episode 01: Called By Buritai
Kamujin, who had been deprived of any chance of appearing the battlefield, didn't intend to waste the chance where he could go to war, and responded to Buritai's invitation. Thereupon, although he followed instructions and planned to capture the Macross by setting a trap in the Mars Base, the ship escaped when the base was blown up and the trap was destroyed.

Caption: Ekisedoru became anxious as Kamujin's outrageousness wasn't different from the rumours, such as amusing himself by betting on the number of ships that they collided with when they Defolded right in front of the allied forces.*

* Translator's note: originally was: "~ that they collided with when they Defolded near allied forces."

Character Episode 02: Stubbornness Toward The Macross
Kamujin couldn't comprehend the tactics of Buritai -who prohibited the sinking of the Macross-, disregarded the order, and repeatedly aimed at the Macross. However, he was obstructed by Buritai and Rapu Ramizu, couldn't freely fight, and his resentment toward the Macross became stronger.

Caption: Kamujin, who had it in for the Macross, was deeply impressed by Lynn Minmei's songs during the battle with the Bodoru Main Fleet, and allied with the Macross.

Character Episode 03: Kamujin's Uprising
Even though Kamujin jointly struggled with the Macross in the decisive battle with the Bodoru Main Fleet, he couldn't get used to the peaceful Earth lifestyle. Seeking battle, he plotted a rebellion plan against the New Unified Government. Also, riots -by Zentrādi who couldn't get used to peaceful life, in the same way as Kamujin- frequently occurred at that time, and Kamujin's rebellion plan also became a suitable receptacle for such dissatisfied elements. Additionally, Rapu Ramizu also assisted him - her calculated strategies and Kamujin's impulsive tactics functioned well, and his plan steadily progressed. The New Unified Government also couldn't grasp the whole picture, and as a result permitted Kamujin to make a surprise attack on Macross City with a Medium Gunship. In that battle, Kamujin and Rapu Ramizu shared the fate of their ship.

Caption: Even though Kamujin repudiated Earth's cultures, by dealing in the threat of taking hostages, repair skills, and so on, he assertively used "Earthling-like" methodology.

Caption: Kamujin making a suicide attack on the Macross with the repaired Medium Gunship. It's said that he had promised to make "culture" with Rapu Ramizu if the battle ended.

Left: Quick-tempered and impulsive Kamujin doesn't like tactics that attack in the enemy's rear. Even in the operation where a trap and ambush were set up for the Macross on Mars, he wasn't very enthusiastic about it.

Up: Division Commander Kamujin wore a military uniform that differs from that of the general soldiers. Also, despite those clothes becoming worn-out during the First Interstellar War, he kept wearing them.

Left/Up: Kamujin wore an Armoured Suit, which is a pilot suit. While the belligerent Kamujin was a division commander, he rode in a dedicated Gurāji Battle Pod, and fought on the front line.

Extra Report: Kamujin And Rapu Ramizu
Even though Rapu Ramizu agreed with Kamujin and participated in the uprising, she didn't know what to do with him disobeying orders in the First Interstellar War, and the pair came together with a rather hostile relationship. However, after the great war, they acted together as they had something in common. They feigned "making culture" and kissed, and were seen like a pair of lovers, so to speak. Additionally, there is also a rumour that the pair also had a child that survived them.

Right: Rapu Ramizu
She was the commander of the Bodoruzā Direct Defence Fleet. After the First Interstellar War, she acted together with the Kamujin Family, and appears to have cleverly controlled the important points of the uprising plan.

Extra Report: [F] The Giant's Nature That Was Inherited
Even 50 years after the First Interstellar War, there are Zentrādi who don't accept the culture of the Earth, like Kamujin. For them, who are descended from a fighting race*, they felt that their combat desires were suppressed by Earth's lifestyle, and they induced such things as uprisings.

* Translator's note: originally was: "For them, who receive the blood impulses as a fighting race, ~."

Caption: Temujin, who was denied Earth's culture, led his subordinates and caused a rebellion in the attached forces.

Right: Temujin
Temujin was the Combat Commanding Officer of the Zentrādi force that was stationed on the planet Gaul 4. He is observed as having a genetic resemblance to Kamujin, and had a belligerent personality.
