are Gundam units modelled after samurai, ninja, or other forms of feudal Japanese warriors. Inheriting the base SD Gundam design, typical design element include changing beam sabre into katana, sheath that act as a gun, removable armour suits. Although the concept began with more typical Gundam proportions, the idea is most famous for inspiring a long-running SD Gundam franchise. ==Outline== The Musha Gundam series is the longest running SD Gundam series, lasting over 15 years. Since the series is set in the Warring States period, use of katakana is avoided and kanji is used heavily. With exception of Musha Senki and Musha Generation, names of characters, items, and places usually makes no literal sense unless you read it, similar to Mondegreen. For example, '頑駄無' is pronounced 'Gan Da Mu', or 'Gundam'. Apart from Musha Generation and the Tekki Musha(鉄機武者), all the Mushas from Musha Gundam series are not viewed as mechanical robots. They portrayed as living beings that grow and mature similar to humans. Furthering this, often relationships between mecha in the main series are turned into family ties. For example, the Musha versions of Psyco and Pscyco Mk II are rendered as brothers. Themes of heritage, duty and honor run strongly through Musha Gundam. Many motifs are frequently revisited, such as a central hero aided by four others. These heroes will often receive powers, armours and ranks handed down by predecessor similar teams. Later Musha Gundam works would also introduce characters passed over for the ranks of the central heroes. These characters would ultimately come to respect the heroes as superior candidates or destroy themselves through their own ambition. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Musha Gundam」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
