Jin and his Variant armor in Marvel vs. Capcom.

Jin Saotome is a Capcom character from the mecha fighting game Cyberbots: Fullmetal Madness.

Overview

Jin's father was a war hero, who lead a team of Variant Armor pilots against an alien invasion, saving the world. However, he was killed shortly after. Jin took on his father's Variant Armor Blodia BX-02 and continues the fight against the alien warlord Shadow. Jin feels the only way he can live up to his father's legacy is to become not only the best VA pilot ever, but also to develop his mind and body to its limits. His mood swings from stoic and introspective to raging fury with little warning as his rage over his father's death takes over.

Wikibooks has a manual, textbook or guide to this subject:

He is also a character in the videogame Marvel vs. Capcom, and its sequel, where he implements Blodia in several of his special moves. In both games, he plays relatively the same, utilizing simplistic but effective short-range tactics to dispatch his opponent.

Interestingly enough, Jin appears as an unlockable hidden character in another Capcom mecha fighting game, Tech Romancer. In that game, he pilots Blodia, pitting it against several of the original robots featured. Much like his character in Marvel vs. Capcom, Jin's Variant Armor has a very sparse selection of special moves, but does an extremely heavy amount of damage. Being a hidden character, he is unplayable in story mode, which is unfortunate considering the game's rich storyline.
