Few ones know Ota's giant mecha isn't really a mecha, and less ones know part of the design comes form the "SRT OG" mecha "DaiRaiOh". Well as DaiRaiOh, since the first Aperion designs i thought to make a "faceoff" thing, or still some kind of mode overdriving and making it overpowered and with some different lookin.

About the design, except a complete redesign of the shoulders, involving mainshape and details, anything else was already planned since first, the forearms and ankles boost-pods in this mode open up and are emitting aura costantly (of course, the aura gets more intense when attacking, giving a real boosting to the bodypart making even more damage); the face as sayd before "opens apart" revealing Aperion's real face and eyes, and hairs grow from behind his back and behind his head too (like a SSJ3, i haven't taken the idea from that, but...). Aperion's colors change too, from light blue to dark blue, and silver parts becoming white (an aura effect).

For some details like the hairs i taken the idea from another "SRT OG" machine, "Aphoteosized Ialdabaoth", still i wanted to do a my own version of those making some colors and shapes edits, just wanted to inform about this...

As last thing, Ota like this makes me think about "Char Aznable", dunnow why XDXDXD... I was trying to use "Folka Aldbark" as model for him this time, but wasn't good for the purpouse, so i tryed with "Masaki Andou" and this is how he came up, still i don't get why makes me think about Char XDXDXD... Also i know Aperion is that kind of mecha "replicationg" the movements his own pilot does in the cockpit, and here Ota and Aperion are in different poses, but for this time i preferred something more "representative" than realistic ^^
