Alogo-Potamo is one of the Mythos Cyborgs in Tsuguo Okazaki's Cyborg 009 BGOOParts Delete. He is, in a sense, a continuation of Hippo Man from the original manga, but now given more of a name along with other details.
Appearance[]
As with before, Alogo-Potamo is a large, bipedal hippo man with gray skin and wearing a red tutu and a neck ruff.
Personality[]
Though he looks quite comical and comes off rather simple-minded, Alogo-Potamo is deadly in his own right all while being such "comic relief" of the Mythos team. He re-introduces himself to 007 with a song-and-dance number to inform of his true name, that he is no mere "hippo man" despite his looks.
Relationships[]
007/Great Britain[]
It is this 00 Cyborg that Alogo-Potamo faces off against, in a sense a "rematch" of the time they battled on Magma and 007 killed him in order to take his form as disguise. This time around, Alogo-Potamo proves to be more of a challenge.
004/Albert Heinrich[]
Alogo-Potamo winds up with his "nose poop" ability interrupted by 004, who fires off his knee cannon and frightens him. The two proceed to wind up in a battle of gunfire, before Hippos interrupts 004 for a time.
Alogo-Potamo winds up defeated by 004's gunfire, having been shot full of holes.
Abilities[]
Like before, Alogo-Potamo relies on his strong breath ability, which extends to a sonic weapon inside his throat that he attempts to destabilize 007 with in their battle.
He also refers to his "nose poop" (boogers), which in fact are those deadly bullets he can fire out of his nostrils with great force.
History[]
The man that would become Alogo-Potamo was among a number of Greek citizens who willingly accepted the offer to become the cyborg "Gods" of Black Ghost, at the cost of their more human personalities and memories. Now, this man was a strange hippo creature and would be entirely dedicated to this sort of role on the team.
He would encounter 007 on Magma and the two would fight, only for him to die and 007 to take on his form to blend in. When the island sunk, his body was teleported away by Hera along with all of the other dead or injured Mythos Cyborgs, to store them away in Gaia's secret laboratory.
50 years later, Alogo-Potamo and his teammates would wake up from their stasis, but learn that some version of the 00 Cyborgs from another world had arrived with the aim to wipe them out as an unresolved and lingering trace of Black Ghost. Alogo-Potamo would mainly fight against 007, although he would also be generally fighting against the team, up until his death at the hands of Gaia's robots Athena and Ares.
