The CVP-014A Karura is a Zogilian Coupling Valiancer in the Buddy Complex anime. It is piloted by Hina Yumihara.
Overview[]
The Karura is a pink Valiancer that bears a resemblance to the Fortuna. It is piloted by Hina Yumihara. After the Fortuna was destroyed, the Zogilia Republic stole the Free Pact Alliance's Coupling Valiancers, XV-7001 Luxon and XV-7002 Bradyon, and outfitted their cockpits onto the Karura and CVP-015A Nergal. The Karura was made as Hina's replacement Valiancer, whilst having the ability to perform Coupling with other Coupling Valiancers, such as the Nergal and XV-7101 Luxon NEXT.
Armaments[]
First appearance.
Karura's rifle.
- Gun/Scythe
- The Karura carries a standard gun, and also has a mortar launcher attached onto it. The mortar launcher is used for bombardment, while the standard gun is used for mid to long-range combat. The Karura also has a scythe on the opposite end of the gun to use as a melee weapon. It is very powerful, being able to cut multiple Valiancers in half in a single slice.
- Nector Rifle
- During the final battle with Evgeni Kedar's forces, the Karura was equipped with a Nector Rifle similar to the ones used by Luxon NEXT and Bradyon NEXT
System Features[]
Karura during Coupling.
- Coupling System
- During coupling the Karura gains two pink V-shaped wings that spread larger than the Valiancer, which enable it to fly greater distances and at much greater speeds (to the point were it appears they are teleporting). The pilots also share experiences, abilities and skills while increasing the abilities and the output of the Valiancers. While Coupling with Bizon, it caused intense pain to Hina, as the Coupling was forced and did not have her consent. When Hina coupled with Aoba however the forced coupling protocol was flushed out of the system and allowed both of them to enter a kind of void where Hina and Aoba talked with each other, where she wore the school uniform that Aoba remembered her wearing. After placing her sincerest trust to Aoba their valiancers became enveloped in energy and creating a similar effect like the T2-rise protocol albeit a stronger one and creating the most powerful coupling ever seen.
