AK966 (エーケーナインダブルシックス Ee Kee Nain Daburu Shikkusu, pronounced as "AK9 Double 6"), known as Akibot 966 in the Funimation dub, and called Autumn H (オータムH Ootamu Eichi, Aki Hellraiser in the Funimation dub) by Aki Hinata, is a robot based on Aki, made by Kururu. Its name comes from the first two letters of Aki's name and Kururu's wordplay name, since Ku can mean nine, while ru can mean six in Japanese (In the Funimation dub, the number stands for the number of planets Kururu intends to destroy).

History

In Episode 44 B, after Kururu distracted Keroro Platoons and the Hinata siblings, he challenged a newly arrived Aki from her office in a battle in their mechas to determine the strongest lifeforms. Witnessing her robot, Aki rode her motorcycle and entered into it's ponytail which placed her inside a docking bay. With Kururu in his Kururu Robo, both of them battled each others. However, since AK966 is still in the prototype stage, it started to move on its own and attack Kururu Robo. In the end, she managed to locate the shutdown button and shut the robot, resulting both her and Kururu Robo damaged. Nonetheless, an escape pod was released from AK966's head which brought Aki and Kururu home.

In Episode 103, AK966 was one of the five robots autopiloted by Kururu in an assault against Tororo's hideout during Garuru Platoon's invasion.

Trivia

  • This robot is heavily based on Mazinger Z as well as its female support robots from the Mazinger franchise
    • Its attacks also take heavy influence from Mazinger Z such as its signature Rocket Punch, even returning to the robot in the same way
    • Its Autumn Hurricane is lifted from the Rust Hurricane used by Mazinger, even deploying a mouth grill to use it
    • Its Autumn Beam is lifted from Mazinger's Photon Beam
    • Its Autumn Crusher is lifted from Mazinger's Drill Missiles also fired from behind the forearm
    • Its Autumn Arrow comes from Mazinger's Reitou Beam, both involve ice in some way
    • Its Autumn Dynamite may be in reference to Mazinger's Missile Punch where missiles are fired from its navel but more likely it is meant to reference the Breast Missiles many of Mazinger's female support robots are known to use
    • Its flight pack is similar to a later addition to Mazinger's arsenal:the Jet Scrander
    • The way Aki docks into the machine is referencing the original idea of how Mazinger would be piloted through a motorcycle driving into place which was later reused as the docking method for the prototype of Mazinger Z:Energer Z
    • The way Aki and Kululu leave the machine is similar to the Pilder which docks in the top of Mazinger's head to pilot it
