Description
Dekao Ohyama, known in some English adaptations as Dex Ogreon, is a character from the anime MegaMan NT Warrior. He is a classmate of Lan Hikari, Maylu Sakurai, and Yai Ayanokoji, and serves as the human operator of the powerful NetNavi GutsMan.EXE.
Physically, Dekao is a heavyset young boy with brown, fin-shaped hair and brown lips. He typically wears a green shirt with yellow trims paired with blue shorts, and his clothing features GutsMan's Navi mark on the upper right corner. His Japanese name carries meaning related to his size, with "Dekao" deriving from the word "dekai" meaning huge, while his surname "Oyama" translates to "big mountain".
In terms of personality, Dekao initially believes himself to be a superior NetBattler to his peers. Despite his large stature giving an impression of a bully, he is generally good-natured and kind-hearted at his core. He is the older brother of a younger boy named Chisao, who idolizes Dekao and believes him to be the best NetOperator in the world, a reputation Dekao works hard to maintain.
Dekao's primary motivation throughout much of the early series is to prove himself as a top-tier NetBattler. After Lan receives MegaMan and defeats GutsMan, Dekao becomes Lan's rival, harboring a desire to eventually overcome him in battle. Beyond his competitive nature, he also competes for Maylu Sakurai's affection alongside Lan, though Lan often remains unaware of Maylu's feelings toward him.
As the series progresses, Dekao undergoes notable character development. He gradually shifts his focus away from NetBattling rivalry and pursues a new passion, becoming a curry chef for Number 1 Curry under the tutelage of Yahoot. Despite this career change, he remains part of the main cast, though his prominence decreases after the first season before he becomes more active again in later installments such as the Beast and Beast+ seasons.
Dekao's key relationship is with his NetNavi, GutsMan.EXE, a large and powerful Navi that, while not matching MegaMan's capabilities, is still formidable in battle. Together, they form a strong partnership typical of human-Navi operators in the series. Dekao also maintains friendships with Lan, Maylu, Yai, and Tory Froid, serving as part of the core group of characters throughout the anime's run.
