Shinzan (シンザン) is a stag beetle-type Medarot that first appeared in Medarot 5. It is the player's starting Medarot in the Kuwagata version, and is owned by the player's rival in the Kabuto version.
Description
Based on a stag beetle (or "kuwagata-mushi"), Shinzan is the mascot of the Kuwagata version of Medarot 5. Its design is more sleek and angular compared to previous KWG Medarots, and its left arm features a "pile bunker" weapon in the form of a long pole on its arm that it can fire forward at high speed to strike its enemies.
The name "Shinzan" comes from an alternate reading of the characters for "deep mountain" (深山, miyama), in reference to a species of stag beetle called the miyama stag beetle.
In the games
In Medarot 5
In the Kuwagata version, Koishimaru finds Shinzan disassembled along with a Medarotch and Kuwagata 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 Chrotojil shortly after, due to his own Medarotch being broken. Later, it is revealed that Shinzan and the Medarotch were new models stolen from a nearby laboratory, but Koishimaru is given permission to keep them due to Shinzan's attachment to him.
In the Kabuto version, the roles of Shinzan and Chrotojil are reversed, and Shinzan 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.
Like other KWG Medarots, Shinzan has a Sword attack on its right arm, a Hammer attack on its left, and a Scan action on its head. Its parts all have the Speed attribute.
In Medarot 8
Shinzan makes a reappearance in Medarot 8 as a DLC-exclusive Medarot. It appears along with Chrotojil and Magentacat in the seventh DLC mission, which can be downloaded for 300 yen ($2.40).
Its model number is now KWG0C.
In the manga
In Medarot 5
In this manga series, Shinzan takes on the same role as in the Kabuto version of the games and appears as Hiko's partner Medarot with the name Nekuu (ネクウ).
