[edit] Characters

Janperson : The title character, a purple, android robot who works as a detective. He was once a killing machine known as the MX-A1, that was deactived but was later rebuilt with human emotions. Like Robo Cop, he upholds the law but he is purely mechanical. He is seen to be the kind who never gives up that easily.

Gun Gibson : Janperson's gruff-rougish android partner who appears later in the series, grey, heavily-armed. He had a girlfriend named Kai who was brutally killed by the Gang Guards. Originally a renegade, he switched sides to become Janperson's sidekick. Armed with two guns- one with aiming bullet, the other the dumb bullet. He later had a powerful bazooka he used in battle. Although thought to be killed by Billgoldy in the near finale, he was still alive and well and joined for the final battle.

[edit] Villains

Bill Goldy - Evil cyborg duplicate of Janperson. He is actually human who later became a cyborg via an operation. He usually executes silly plans at first but later on got serious with his schemes. He tried to frame Janperson by impersonating his identity through his alter ego as Billy Goldy and using his name in vain but ingeniously failed. In the end, Janperson and Gun Gibson killed him once and for all as the only means to save the world as he was already far too dangerous.

Jimpak - Head of the renegade robot organization the New Gang Guards. He is actually a human who has some cyborg parts but Janperson thought he was a robot. He is a cyborg who vowed to mechanize the world after he and his older brother Ben lost their first android assistant. When his older brother died, he reformed the Gang Guards into a stronger organization vowing to destroy Janperson and rule the planet. Near the end of the series, he was revealed to be a human with cyborg implants. Rather than submit to death, he chose to commit suicide.

Madame Reiko - Diabolical head of Supertech, a biological underworld organization. She turns out to actually have plans to restore the Earth to beauty, more of an anti-hero than a real villain. She became a monster near the end of the series and tried to turn all of humanity into fertilizers, hoping to restart the Earth as she saw fit. She eventually died after receiving heavy injury from Janperson's Flash Cannon.
