Machine Robo Rescue (出撃!マシンロボレスキュー) was a Japanese anime television series and toyline from Bandai.

In the future, age is not a factor to determine whether someone can perform a certain task, but special talent and training. An organization, Machine Robo Rescue (MRR), was established for robots and children to become partners and rescue people from danger. Then 12 children with various abilities were selected and introduced as part of the program: Robo Rescue!

Life as one of the children chosen as part of MRR has started for Taiyo Ozora. Bumpy and difficult training is just ahead for the MRR team in order to protect many people's lives.

Characters

The 12 Kids were divided into 3 teams depicting their field of rescue:

-Red Wings

  • Taiyo Ozora (大空 太陽 Ōzora Taiyō) - Master of Jet Robo & Shuttle Robo; aerial rescue specialist. Taiyo is a "survival natural", which grants him the ability to sense danger.
  • Arias "Ace" Honoo (エリアス 炎 Ariasu Honō) - Master of Fire Robo; fire fighting and prevention specialist
  • Kai Kitazawa (北沢 海 Kitazawa Kai) - co-pilot of the Red Wings' Wing-Liner transport
  • Rin Haruka (遥 鈴 Haruka Rin) - main pilot of Wing-Liner; proxy Red Wings Robo-Master; mountain rescue specialist

-Blue Sirens

  • Makoto Aikawa (愛川 誠 Aikawa Makoto) - Master of Police Robo; law and traffic enforcement specialist from a family of police officers
  • Susumu Utada (歌田 進 Utada Susumu) - Co-Master of Gyro Robo along with twin brother Tsuyoshi, mechanic and engineering specialist. Being a twin with Tsuyoshi, Susumu knows exactly what his brother is thinking and doing at all times.
  • Tsuyoshi Utada (歌田 強 Utada Tsuyoshi) - Co-Master of Gyro Robo along with twin brother Susumu, mechanic and engineering specialist. Being a twin with Susumu, Tsuyoshi knows exactly what his brother is thinking and doing at all times.
  • Alice Beckham (アリス・ベッカム Arisu Bekkamu) - main pilot of the Blue Sirens' Siren-Galley transport; former child actress and now MRR public relations liaison

-Yellow Gears

  • Daichi Hayami (速水 大地 Haiyami Daichi) - Master of Drill Robo; building construction and demolition specialist. Has advanced spatial awareness that allows him to accurately estimate distance and dimension by just looking at a scene or item.
  • Sho Ashigawa (芦川ショウ Ashigawa Shō) - Master of Submarine Robo; sea and underwater rescue specialist
  • Sayuri Suizenji (水前寺 小百合 Suizenji Sayuri) - main pilot of the Yellow Gears' Gear-Dump transport; medical specialist. Is a "healing natural", which gives her the ability to instil calm to anyone she talks to; this ability isn't mentioned until episode 41.
  • Ken Minami (美波ケン Minami Ken) - co-pilot of the Gear Dump; proxy Yellow Gears Robo-Master

Others were accepted but started independently:

-MRR Stealth

  • Jay (ジェイ Jei) - Master of V Stealth Robo; formerly an agent of Disaster for Kaiser-G until reformed and accepted into the MRR; combat specialist, also is a "survivor natural" similar to Taiyou.

These Machine Robos together with their Robo Masters can unite with various Support Robos BUT only with the permission of their RMs which can be transmitted through their K-Boy cellphone communicators.

Trivia

In what some fans call an under-handed tactic, Hasbro slapped the name Machine Robot Rescue on some recolored Transformers: Robots in Disguise toys and tried to trademark the term in an attempt to legally prevent Bandai from bringing the Machine Robo Rescue franchise to the western world. [1] [2]
