time, either side can submit a "callsign", indicating their surrender. Because of these measures, there have been no casualties in the war. HIMC (pronounced Himiko) Zinv's opposite, HIMC carved a swath of ruin across D's world before she escaped. It seems as though only people with negative emotions in their hearts can control HIMC, as evidenced by its initial rejection of Mitsuki Rara, and its violent reaction to Mitsuki Sanada's jealousy. HIMC has some connection to the alien lifeform Kumu. HIMC is completely and totally destroyed at the hands of Zinv, compressed down to nothing to prevent it from regenerating. Kumu The alien that advises Ayuko Rara. It has some relationship to D, and hates men with a passion. Kumu resembles a floating, glowing bell and garland.

Because of his overwhelming negative Life Sympathy, Kazuki's robot is capable of feats beyond most other models. Rara Army Formed by Hiroshi Rara, it intends to unite the world under its banner.

Rara's robots are also remotely operated, unlike the Earth Defense Force's cockpit-equipped models. Rara prefers to operate outlandishly, broadcasting attack trailers and boasting of his army's God-given power (often through his mascot, Miss Ra). However, despite General Rara's highly visible status within the organization, another person wields the real authority. The Original A mech under the control of the Rara army, it has the power to control the atmosphere as well as some electromagnetic capabilities. It captures Kazuki along with Hartzenen and brings them to Rara's base where it falls off a large cliff, supposedly destroying it beyond repair. The Original and Zinv are
