Mikazuki Augus/Gundam Barbatos IBO AMV "Wake the White Wolf"

[@WarbossR0kt00fSant0s]

Fights like a wolf even when he's dying, has a variety of weapons, appears stoic and near-emotionless, angered when people he cares about gets hurt, loses mobility to half his body but still fights anyways, has two girls falling for him and he fights to the death even against an overwhelming force. Also prefers close combat fighting despite having ranged weaponry. This boy is Gundam's Geralt of Rivia. I can see why now.

[@liamtheheroicgundamwarrior9752]

The title of this song is very fitting actually! The reason I say that is because Gundam Barbatos’s “Lupus” part of it’s close combat style upgraded versions’s names is Latin for “Wolf”. Also as one of the characters said in the show “the word “Rex” means “King”.” In conclusion: the full name of “Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex” (the final version of Gundam Barbatos) is translated to English as “Gundam Barbatos Wolf King”! So yeah. THAT is why I find the name of this song fitting for this AMV about Gundam Barbatos!

[@jeremycocciolone9223]

Barbatos translates to "Bearded Demon". Which fits his title as Devil of Tekkedan. So in short, Barbatos Lupus Rex is the Bearded Demon Wolf King

I think Gundam Barbatos is probably the most powerful Mobile Suit in all of Gundam if your looking at just physical performance.

[@AceTheBirb]

I think Barbatos has it going more in ferocity if anything. Kira would dodge, Setsuna would use Trans Am... the Barbatos is severely underpowered compared to most other gundams weaponry wise. Sure the nanolaminate armor would protect from beams, but could it protect from physical blades like the GN Sword series? It certainly doesn't protect from heat, so if the ZZ landed a shot with the Hi Mega Cannon, Mika would cook alive.

[@arcalphastudios]

all the Gundams in Iron Blooded Orphans are named after demon kings in the Ars Goetia, which is a book about them. Barbatos (or Barbados-many of the demon kings have alternate spellings) is one of the prominent ones. Bael is the king of kings, which makes sense since it was the first Gundam frame ever built. Similarly, I think the mobile armors like Hashmal are named after angels, since the Gundam frames were built specifically to combat the mobile armors directly.
