Villain Overview

Stupid little fool, didn't your sweet darling mommy warn you? If you run into a scary man, protect your wallet AND your a** or you get it in the end...
~ Gates rambling, right before killing the Balic's militia.

Gates, also known as Mr. Kalium through Amalgam, is a major antagonist in the third season of the anime Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid. One of the few known Amalgam's principal and most brutal agents. He took over the role of Gauron short after his apparent demise. Like Gauron, Gates clashed against the pilot of Mithril's ARX-7/ Arbalest, until the same Arm Slave leaded him to his demise in Hong Kong.

Gates was the commander of Amalgam's Execution Squad, whose job was to terminate targets that compromise or impair the organization in any way. When Gates is sent into action, his erratic and disrespectful behavior often causes fatal casualties for both sides in the process.

Gates didn't have an active antagonistic role and only confronted Sosuke twice. He was almost all the time showed off-action doing his own deeds and hobbies such as extorting, swimming, mistreating his squad members or even worse.

When it comes to work, Gates was always girded by his squad, normally their number varies from seven to five members, Gates always operated with his Plan-1058 Codarl-i.

Appearance and Capabilities[]

Gates was extravagant concerning his looks. He wears turtleneck shirt and a fine suit, carried over a white long coat, and wears a necklace in form of a golden tear. One of his most characteristic traits were his exaggerated, long sideburns, which ended on point, inwards.

By the time he began piloting his Venom in the anime, there was little difference with Gauron's, aside from using a personal monomolecular cutter and a pair of machine guns instead of one Gatling machine.

Being the user of Amalgam's most powerful and advanced weapon model by then, Gates was a dangerous foe, able to defeat other Lambda Driver users and other arm slave types such as the Plan-1059 Codarl-m, although his full capacity is still a mystery, as his fights where highly unbalanced, but he was experienced enough to take out the Arbalest with sheer lambda driver force. It was specified by an Amalgam executive that Gates was far inferior than Gauron in hability, however they gave him the rank of commander because compared to Gauron he was much more reliable. Although Gauron was the most capable fighter, Gates stands out as a ruthless strategist.

Another regardful traits of his was his incredibly predictive analytical skills, which used on the battlefield as a way to reach the enemy in the most shorted time, and for preparing traps and escape ways, and his supernatural level in shooting, capable of hitting a target far away, and needed few time to aim, without missing.

Personality[]

Gates could be best described as the madman type of guy in a mercenary organization, he was known for being too scandalous and bloodthirsty that even Gauron recognized he was "A very scary bastard".

Maintaining a hammy and energetic attitude that differed him from the other antagonists of the series, he couldn't speak with common sense and his manner of speech weirded out comrades and foes alike, the few times someone bothered asking him the sense of his words, he simply said that it was meaningless. His extremely warped mind proved to be sexually depraved and immoral: showing perhaps too interest in the young Xia Yu twins and small mammals.

Gates was arrogant, disrespectful and cruel towards everyone around him and found enjoyment in mocking, beating and killing people who couldn't fight back at him and tended to display a flare for the drama for long, despite being a considerable A.S pilot and an expert in terms of practical shooting, Gates never fought equivalently and always had his squad near him. A lunatic that had no regards about the life of others beneath him but was loyal to Amalgam, hence the reason why he got his post as a commander.

Another trait of his was that he was extremely confident and arrogant, believing himself to be always the strongest and most skillful player around, something that proved to be his weak point since his stubbornness and arrogance didn't let him recognize when he had lost. Gates seemed to covet the Arbalest, and view it as a "gleaming jewel" .

Gates showed symptoms of disorders caused by the A-21 experimental drug, "TI-971",a drug that can create neuronal environment especially to control the Lambda Driver, such as episodes of violent outbursts, loss of memory and manic depression. Those characteristics made Gates even more unpredictable and unreliable.

Relationships[]

Doz[]

Ce32c57b

His second in command and personal attendant, Doz constantly assists Gates in teams of non combat. With the obnoxious and unstable personality of Gates, Doz is always the first one to get hurt, despite that, he seems to simply ignore the erratic behavior of his boss and carries his duty professionally, whether he hates Gates or just doesn't mind him.

Xia Yu Lan/Fan[]

1337493522358

Gates treated the twins as his personal playthings, bullying and mocking the girls was part of the routine for him, and personally showed interest in Xia Yu Lan, the little one, which probably knew it too well. For the slightest irritation or offense, he would quickly show retaliations, taunting both of them or going as far as hurting and abusing them.

  • Xia Yu Lan, being the younger of the twins, was not as cold blooded as his sister, an sometimes he let it slide what he thought about Gates: He hated him and only held disgust for him.
  • Xia Yu Fan rarely showed any emotion, and was capable of withstanding Gates's abuse, but even she wasn't able to control herself to Gates's monstrous display of evil at the last episode of the season.

Leonard Testarossa[]

Gatesencounter

Gates and Leonard briefly interacted with each other, but Gates presented no respect on him, despite his high rank, and possibly both of them were competitors in Amalgam. Leonard, being the prodigy he is obviously outsmarted Gates more than once. When Leonard offered his help tracking down the rogue agents, Gates warned him to stand aside and let him work. For Leonard, Gates relation was just professional, as usual, he professes an understanding and qualm attitude to everybody, even to Gates, but he hardly communicated with him for other things than duty.

Gauron[]

It is unclear what kind of relation had Gauron with Gates, as he changed sides constantly from organization to organization, Regardless of that it seems they knew each other as far as Gates recognizing the twins as the "apprentices" of Gauron, and Gauron recognize Gates for his reputation as ruthless and fierce monster.

In Super Robot Wars V, Gauron and Gates are still alive and they coincide once, Gauron and Gates seems to tolerate each other, for the exception when Gates mistreats Xia Yu twins, Gauron warns Gates about not touching them again.

Kaname Chidori[]

In the audio drama, where Gates is hired as a professor, shows a few interactions between the characters. While Gates is concerned about the class he has to do today (goes from the elevation of the genitals to the western adjustments from the Taika era to the Meiji without motives). With Kaname constantly reminding him of his ramblings, Gates interprets that Kaname is sexually attracted by him. Kaname acts with confusion and rage the whole audio drama about Gates and his manners, and was grossed out when he insinuated to her or when he killed a student for not shutting up while he was doing class. Obviously his relation towards Kaname is non-canon, as Gates never knew Kaname in any way and would never be accepted as a teacher.

Sousuke Sagara[]

Sousuke meets Gates on a more personal level in Super Robot Wars V. When Gates clashes against Sousuke he let slide the nickname "Kashim" to Sousuke for fueling his sadism, probably heard Gauron saying it or he told him. Sousuke highly dislikes Gates, viewing him as the depraved scum he was and refused to listen to none his constant nonsenses and cruelty.

  • The continuing relations are just seen in Super Robot Wars V, which are non canon.

Embryo[]

Embryo is the one who hires Gates in the first place in various missions, and seemed to be amused by his way to be, however he probably would hated him in time, as Embryo sees nothing in free bloodshed and havoc, something that is like bread and water for Gates.

Salia Tereshkova[]

Salia is diligent and serious, and was annoyed by Gates's attitude when she was forced to join her in combat.

Chris[]

Just like the twins, Chris was disgusted by Gates's commentaries, wondering why she was working with them.

Quotes[]

So, was it this mouth that said those things, huh? You called me an idiot, did you, little girl? How rude. You must unsay such nasty things, or I'll give you a spankin'!

Unbeilievable! Gates has broke it through the line of defense! His moves are pure art, And the audience is going freaking nuts! Will he make it? It's their final strike for the Nanking Grand Prix.

~ Gates when he first saw the Arbalest.
Hold still now. Or my bullets might just miss you!
~ Gates shooting Sousuke.
Uruz 7,huh? That machine's name is Arbalest, right? Quit your fighting, AND JUST COME TO DADDY!
~ Gates leaking Mithril's information.
YEAH, HAH, HAH, HAH! Yes, yes, yes! I'm getting closer! The only thing in front of me is one Arbalest at the verge of overheating! I'm gonna run you down and crush your little a**, You're trapped like a rat, boy!
~ Gates before carelesly walking into a trap.
GODAMNIT! YOU ARE NOT GONNA MAKE ME CRY! I DON'T HAVE FEELINGS SO YOU CAN'T HURT THEM, AND YOU REMEMBER THAT
~ Gates's tantrum before escaping.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE MISSION FAILED?(Begins chasing his underling in a swimming pool)-Godamnit, you stupid son of a-Don't you run away from me, you(both of them fall into the water.)-IT DOESN'T MATTER, BECAUSE THEY GOT BRUNO, YOU STUPID F*CK-UP!

~ Gates raging at Doz, later calming himself.
WHAAAT? My little kittens left me? What in the hell kind of problem did they ever had with me? Sure, they haven't my age, but I've never slacked off and I've always satisfied them!
~ Gates surprise about the Xia Yu twins going rogue.
You're not taking that thing to drop in for tea with our friends from Mithril now, are you?
~ Gates interrogating Yu Fan via ratio.
Balance is the key-Fine! But balance is still important for people and for countries! Lean too far and you end up falling off the beam like a drunken gymnast! And if you loose your balance...(swings an apple in the spine of his knife on the head of his underling, then shots the apple.) You might lose your head.
A beautifull young body like that? Oh, there's still plenty of uses for that body.
~ Gates, implicating that he will use Xia Yu Lan's dead body for personal affairs.
AH, Yu-ey Fan, this is your poor little sister! This man are so hairy and scary! Oh- don't do that, NO-no, let me go! Aaahhh, they caught me, and thei-thei-NOOOOO, oh please help me, aaaaah, oh they're killing me! No more, don't poke me there! AAA-
~ When Xia Yu Fan calls her sister with his mobile, Gates mocks her, imitating his now deceased sister.
Heh heh heh heh! Well it looks like we finally caught up with you, kitten! Going berserk in an unauthorized theater of operations! What am I going to do with you? Remember, terrorist activity without company approval is a no-no, and what that means...YOU, LITTLE GIRL, HAVE JUST PISSED DADDY OFF!
~ Gates to Xia Yu Fan in their encounter at Hong Kong.
Really? Your sister, you say? Oh yah, that's right, I forgot about our special guest! THERE-SHE-IS! (Shows Xia Yu Lan's corpse, catching here by the arms with his arm-slave) Direct from a rooftop, in the middle of "Who gives a damn.", Japan: Your little sister! Ooh, seems a little out of sorts to me. Hey Yu-ey Lan, are you okay? SAY SOMETHING!(shaking Yu Lan.). (Imitating Yu Lan's voice) Oh, that Big, Strong, Sexy Mr. Gates has caught me, Big Sis, it's so sad, but now I'm so happy, yes I'm so happy that we're finally together again! Gosh, all this brings a f*cking tear to my eye! *sniffle* Stop fighting, Big Sister, wound is the only thing that comes from war! (Shakes Yu Lan more violently.) And after all, Mr. Gates has wounded my heart! (Breaks her arm.) D'OH, oopsie, goddamn thing broke!
~ Gates taunting Yu Fan with the corpse of his sister in front of her.
Hah hah hah hah hah hah! Oh, this is fun! Hey, You over there, You're one of those Mithril's a*holes, aren't you? You know, I didn't plan on killing any of you today, but eeehh, sh*t happens!
~ Gates sighting an injured Clouseau, planning to kill him for fun.
BACK OFF, BACK OFF, BACK OFF, BACK THE F*CK OFF! I'll kill him with one little slice. Don't move! What the hell is going on here? I thought Mithril's Lambda Driver was unstable, so how can it be so strong? You little sh*t...WHO IN THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!?
~ Gates taking Clouseau as hostage, and his last moments before his death.
*sigh* You know, I could use a haircut.
~ Gates's last words.
Heroes are immortal, and so are my sideburns!
~ Gates's "explanation" for his apparent survival at Hong Kong.
Alrighty then, whatever you say, Mr. Gauron. But I'd rather fancy the White One than than those little kittens.
~ Gates's to Gauron.
Whoa hey now, missy. I'm not here for pesky biddies like you. No indeedy, I'm more in the mood for- Sweet, cutie Ange, right there!
Damn, you're really are not going to go easy on me, huh? That's fine. I will fight really hard now, just for you!
~ Gates's response to Salia for failing the mission.
Goddamn you're a meddler, Kashim. If it weren't for you, I'd be crashing the custrard truck with sweet A. by now! Pmh, you're so quiet. Couldn't it be that you're interested by any change? Daddy and lil' Ange woven together in a world of-
~ Gates's rambling about raping Ange to Sousuke.
Ah, would you look at that. How peacefully it looks. In times like this it feels great to have my hair been blowed by the summer breeze...
~ Gates's dying words in Super Robot Wars V.

Trivia[]

  • Gates debuted in the pilot episode of The Second Raid, crying the phrase "MY HONEY!" but he didn't say such thing in the series.
    • Gauron said that affectionate word towards Sousuke too, probably the studio decided to cutt it from the series in order to evade villain's similarities.
  • Despite being the main antagonist of the season, Gates didn't take the role of a personal antagonist since he didn't knew about Sousuke until the very end of his life.
  • His original Japanese voice actor, Hōchū Ōtsuka, also played Jiraiya, who was also a pervert. However Gates had far more disturbing sexual tendencies than Jiraiya had.
  • In Super Robot Wars V, his hair is depicted as lightly ginger in his animations, but remains blonde in the character ID.
  • Gates originally didn't appear much in the novels where the events of the anime takes place. His only appearance was in the middle of the battle in Hong Kong, when he taunted Xia Yu Fan and was killed by Sousuke within minutes. His scenes in the anime, as well as his personality and appearance were originally created by the anime producers.
  • Kalinin took over his codename in Amalgam after his death.
