The RX-零 RX-Zeromaru was a custom Gunpla built by the Diver Ayame (aka Aya Fujisawa) of the forces Le Chat Noir and later Build Divers. It was based on the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam from the 2010-14 anime OVA series Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn. The RX-Zeromaru combined the source material with SD elements and a ninja aesthetic. The RX-Zeromaru’s normal combat mode was its Shinobi form, which resembled the Unicorn Gundam’s Destroy Mode. Its stealth operations Kakure form was modeled after the Unicorn Gundam’s Unicorn Mode. Ayame also created the Armed Armor Hattori, a bird-like support unit that could be used for both reconnaissance and offense. The RX-Zeromaru’s greatest secret was the NinTo-Do System, which allowed it to combine with the Armed Armor Hattori and transform into its full size Real form. The RX-Zeromaru’s armaments included a Tanegashima rifle, the Magunashiki Tanegashima gun, a ninjato, two kunais, a beam Zanbato, a shield shuriken and a pair of Tekkokagi. Ayame joined the Build Divers while secretly being blackmailed by Break Decal mastermind Tsukasa Shiba. After Tsukasa’s defeat, Ayame rejoined the Build Divers and remodels the RX-Zeromaru. Ayame later created the upgraded RX-零/覚醒 RX-Zeromaru (Shinki Kessho), which was inspired by the RX-0 Full Armor Unicorn Gundam. Two years later, Ayame participated in a restaging of the Lotus Challenge as a rehearsal battle to help Force BUILD DiVERS prepare for their final mission on Eldora. When that final mission resulted in Alus invading GBN from Eldora, Ayame joined the fight to protect GBN.
