Haro (ハロ) is Gundam's mechanical mascot. The original Haro is a little robot companion built by the main character Amuro Ray. It is a cute testament to Amuro's exceptional talent for machines. Haro's features include a limited range of speech, built-in arms and legs which it only uses once in the first episode, and the ability to hover (in environments with atmosphere and low gravity) by flapping its appendage coverings. Haro can usually be found rolling behind Amuro's next door neighbor Fraw Bow. In Zeta Gundam, a mass-produced Mk-II version of Haro ends up in the hands of that series's main protagonist Camille Vidan. He repairs the robot, only to have it constantly address him as Amuro. During the events of Char's Counterattack, Amuro gives a "third-generation" Haro to Hathaway, the son of his captain Bright Noah, who keeps it all the way to his own story as told in the Gundam novel Hathaway's Flash. In Victory Gundam, the main character Usso has a Haro replica from his father. Haro continues to permeate in the Gundam frachise, having now appeared in Gundam Seed as Lacus Clyne's horde of multi-colored, simple-speech robot pets.
