Chrotojil (クロトジル) is a rhino beetle-type Medarot that first appeared in Medarot 5. It is the player's starting Medarot in the Kabuto version, and is owned by the player's rival in the Kuwagata version.
Description[edit]
Based on a rhinoceros beetle (or "kabuto-mushi"), Chrotojil is the mascot of the Kabuto version of Medarot 5. Its all-around design is slightly different from Metabee's, with the most notable differences being its orange coloring, larger missile-firing "horns", and feet with multiple toe-like segments to provide better stability. There's arugument about the left arm's barrel. It's a Gatling attack, either the staff's miss or it's similar to the Taurus Judge.
The name Chrotojil comes from the Japanese word for "brown sugar jelly" (黒糖汁, kurotojiru) a popular bait used as a trap food when collecting beetles.
In the games[edit]
In Medarot 5[edit]
In the Kabuto version, Koishimaru finds Chrotojil disassembled along with a Medarotch and Kabuto Medal inside a large tree at the Shijimi shrine. He takes the Medarot and Medarotch with the intention of returning them to their original owner, but is forced to activate it in a battle with Hiko's Shinzan shortly after, due to his own Medarotch being broken. Later, it is revealed that Chrotojil and the Medarotch were new models stolen from a nearby laboratory, but Koishimaru is given permission to keep them due to Chrotojil's attachment to him.
After a hard battle with Hardness Ten, Omeda was upgraded, and alongside Koishimaru, they competed in the Densuke Land Tournament.
Like other KBT Medarots, Chrotojil has a quick Rifle attack on its right arm, a heavy Gatling attack on its left, and a powerful Missile attack on its head. Its parts all have the Speed attribute. Its missile has only 3 uses, so use them wisely.
Chrotojil's Stats and part functions in Medarot 5 are:
| Part | Name | Armor | Attribute | Combo Type / Leg Type | Skill | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Head | Gunpowder | 50 | Speed | Rock | Shoot | Missile |
| R. Arm | Armhole | 30 | Speed | Paper | Shoot | Rifle |
| L. Arm | Entreat | 30 | Speed | Paper | Snipe | Gatling |
| Legs | Plastered | 65 | Speed | Biped type |
Personality in Medarot 5[edit]
Personality wise, Chrotojil is very unlike Metabee, as he is more honest with his feelings, and is good natured.
In the Kuwagata version, the roles of Chrotojil and Shinzan are reversed, and Chrotojil serves as Hiko's Medarot. The two have distinct personalities when they speak in the story, which they keep regardless of which side they are on.
Chrotojil has an child-like, obedient and honest personality, going as far as to call Koishimaru "Master". He can be seen as a little bit stubborn as he repeatedly asks this question to Koishimaru. At that point, Koishimaru tries to tell Chrotojil that he isn't his master, prompting Chrotojil to call Koishimaru an idiot, thinking the boy needs convincing. Later at Koishimaru's home, Koishimaru admits that he wanted to be with him.
In Medarot 8[edit]
Chrotojil makes a reappearance in Medarot 8 as a DLC-exclusive Medarot. It appears along with Shinzan and Magentacat in the seventh DLC mission, which can be downloaded for 300 yen.
Its model number in the new format is KBT0C-M.
In the manga[edit]
In Medarot 5[edit]
In this manga series, Koishimaru finds Chrotojil inside the tree at the Shijimi shrine, but without a Medal. Instead he uses his own Kabuto Medal named Omeda (オメダ), which was given to him by his father along with a Medarotch so that he would have a friend to talk to. Having only been used in a Medarotch, Omeda has no battle experience and has to fight for the first time against Hiko's Shinzan. His model in the manga is KBT-0, much like Metabee in Medarot 1
The name "Omeda" may come from an anagram of the Japanese word "dameo", meaning "a useless guy".
