CyberbotsJin2 — *Jin Saotome* by Kinu Nishimura

Jin Saotome is the main character from the fighting game Cyberbots: Fullmetal Madness.

Biography

Jin is 21 years old, always dressed in pure white, likening him to Street Fighter character Ryu in appearance, but with his trademark white scarf billowing behind him.

Jin's mood goes from calm to rage within seconds, but he remains a good guy. He is also friends with Gawaine Murdock.

Story

Jin's father (Ken Saotome) belonged to a unit that was killed in what was thought to be an accident one year before the start of Cyberbots. To honor his memory, he seeks to become the best Variant Armor pilot alive and wants to prove his worth through the VA battle circuit. He begins to question his father's death after meeting Shade for the first time, who, it turns out, was the one responsible.

His main mech is the BX-02 BLODIA, a reworked model once piloted by Jeff Perkins.

Other appearances

Jin is an unlockable character (piloting BLODIA) in Tech Romancer, and is a playable character in Marvel vs. Capcom and Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

Trivia

Jin's fighting techniques were taught to him by his father.
His birthdate has been listed as April 11, 2078, somewhere in Japan.
Jin makes a small cameo in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, as shown on a poster in the background of a stage with other veterans from the previous games. It is said he is 'slain', which could be a reference to his ending in the first Marvel vs. Capcom. He also makes a small cameo in Hawkeye's ending and both Jin and Blodia appears in UMvC3's Heroes and Heralds mode as a support card.
