Description
Count Brocken is a decorated soldier turned air commander for Dr. Hell. After an unspecified incident separated his head from his torso, Dr. Hell preserved him using biotechnology, enabling his detached head to survive independently. His head is typically carried under his arm or floats autonomously. His appearance features a uniform echoing Nazi military influences, with his disembodied head being his defining trait.
Personality-wise, Brocken exhibits unwavering loyalty to Dr. Hell, executing orders ruthlessly with cunning cruelty toward enemies. His overconfidence creates vulnerabilities, such as others seizing his head, and he often serves as comic relief in these moments, lamenting his "tragic" status. He harbors a fierce rivalry with Baron Ashura, interfering with Ashura's plans to sabotage him.
Brocken possesses strategic acumen from his military background. His floating head can control multiple mechanical bodies simultaneously, allowing him to overpower large opponents like Archduke Gorgon. He also demonstrates exceptional disguise skills, convincingly impersonating Kenzo Kabuto to pilot the Energer Z robot.
Throughout Dr. Hell's operations, Brocken participates in key assaults. He deploys the Groizer X-10 mechanical beast against Mazinger Z and bombs Ashura's Saluud submarine fortress to sabotage his rival. During the conflict with Archduke Gorgon, his multiple bodies overwhelm the Mycenae soldier after Gorgon slices his primary body. In a scheme to secure Zeus's arm and Japanium ore, his Kenzo Kabuto disguise pilots the Energer Z against Mazinger Z, gaining temporary advantage before the plan fails. His final assault commands the flying fortress Gool and mechanical beasts against the Mazinger Army. Though presumed dead when Gool crashes into Ashura's Bood, he survives to take Venus A hostage. He meets his end incinerated by a photon energy blast from the Photon Power Fortress.
A distinct incarnation appears in *Robot Girls Z*, reimagined as a young woman. Her headless body is not her original form, and she is a gullible aspiring teacher rather than loyal to Dr. Hell. Easily tricked by characters like Archduke Gorgon and Baron Ashura, she is hired by Ashura. Her strict teaching methods face rejection by Mechanical Beast Girls, and her contract inadvertently bankrupts the Underground Empire.
