Kasumi's Granbeetle
Granbeetle (グランビートル), Model KBT-0NF / KBT08-M, is the primary Medarot belonging to Kasumi Asano in Medarot Navi's Kabuto version. He appears in the Manga version of Navi as Metabee though.
His Kuwagata version counterpart is Sonic Stag
in the games[edit]
[edit]
Granbeetle is met by Kasumi when Kasumi finds a Kabuto Medal in the abandoned school after losing Far East. He isn't used until Kasumi is locked into a vault by the arrogant and twisted Shiden, who has two Duckbill attack Kasumi. Granbeetle easily defeats the security bots and activates the Medaforce to bust down the doors.
He is called out again when Kasumi talks to Fubuki after defeating her and is instrumental to getting Kasumi's East Medal back from Mizore and Goutetsu. After that, the player can alternate between him and Far East in Robattles. Later he accidentally awakens the prototype Kaiser Beetle, due to his Kabuto and Kaiser Beetle's B Kabuto Medals's resonating.
After Kaiser Beetle's defeat, Granbeetle can be upgraded to Kaiser Beetle if one wishes
Realizing the Medarot does not truly belong to him, Kasumi leaves a note on the laboratory doors apologizing for the trouble.
He doesn't have a characterization here and has no dialogue.
in the Manga[edit]
[edit]
Kasumi found and loaded a new Kabuto Medal inside his old Metabee, but the new Metabee has a stubborn, childlike and reckless personality, which Kasumi doesn't initially like. However, these two become friends and had gone on adventures after being invited to Cluster, with Metabee later using Granbeetle parts on Cluster. That Metabee took part in a fight with Shiden and his Metabee, but Shiden loses due to his poor strategy, and Kasumi's words get Shiden to think later on about his choices.
Its explained his head part, Projector can attach different weapons, but a normal rifle attack is the base weapon.
