Someone should really add the term 'Chirico' in the urban dictionary as a measurement of mecha longevity.

Chirico

A unit of measurement used to determine the longevity of a mecha. The unit comes from the Character Chirico in Armored Trooper Votoms who is said to have piloted (and practically have been made unusable) 23 ATs. The current measurement is 1.8 episodes per mecha.

"You sure your math is right? I keep getting 0.3 Chiricos for a Leo...." Bright Noa


In reality we would have to add all the ATs Chirico has used for his entire life. That would include The Roots of Ambition, Pailsen Files, The last Red Shoulder, Big Battle, and Heretic Saint.

Yeah, I got my math wrong. So sue me :P . And I'm already the first vote for adding it to the dictionary.

Ironically the Rabidydog was/is still the only customized AT that Chirico will ever use cause I believe in the ova sequel Shining Heresy he's still using a scopedog variant. Correct me if I'm wrong about this.
You're correct sir (Hercules reference). It's called the Burglary Dog.

Sorry to double-post, but I have this to say:

You forgot the ZZ with a Zaku II's head, and the Zaku Tank, which is Zaku II + Magella.

Wow, was it really necessary to resurrect a six year old thread to add virtually nothing to it AND double post? Don't do this again. Locked.
