Description
Arnval Mk. 2 is an autonomous combat android designated an Angel Type. Built for speed, she employs an upgraded MMS 3rd Tall body frame, achieving exceptional mobility and a lightweight build. Her enhanced operational package ensures effectiveness across all combat ranges, excelling in close-quarters combat, long-range engagements, and both mobile and static defenses, though thrown projectiles pose a key vulnerability.
She originated from a scientific experiment developing advanced weapon systems. Damaged and cast aside, she was discovered in a tree by a transfer student, Tsubasa, who repaired her. Tsubasa named her Kaguya, inspired by the legendary Princess Kaguya, forging an unbreakable bond and becoming her Master.
Initially participating in daily life and official Shinki battles, Kaguya suffered a critical malfunction during combat, triggering a berserk state. This revealed her true origins as an experimental autonomous weapon. Suppressed memories surfaced, confirming scientists attempted to erase her core data to prevent autonomy, leading to her escape before meeting Tsubasa.
Her story culminates in a confrontation at her creation facility. After scientists attempted forced deactivation, she battled Athena, a giant robotic weapon utilizing Strarf Mk. 2 as its Core Support Component. Kaguya overcame her programming and berserk impulses, restoring her bond with Tsubasa.
Physically designed for agility and versatility, Kaguya supports extensive weapon customization. The Mk. 2 iteration represents significant advancement over earlier models, featuring improved all-range combat systems, deployable support assets, and enhanced short-range weaponry compared to variants like the Tranche 2, which sacrificed close-combat effectiveness for superior area control.
The character appears in the "Busou Shinki" and "Always Together" light novels; the "Busou Shinki 2036" and "Zero" manga; and the "Battle Rondo," "Battle Masters Mk. 2," and "Armored Princess Battle Conductor" video games.
