Share some thoughts on heavy iron please he make me confuse
Hello anon! Sure, let’s talk! Just a quick heads up: this was originally written in Korean, so I’ve rewritten the whole thing in English and hope it all makes sense! Grab a drink or some snacks and read slowly, because it’s a lot. I know heavy paragraphs aren't everyone's thing, but I really wanted to take this opportunity to share some deep dives about him. Enjoy~^^
힘 없는 자는 희망조차 잡을 수 없는 법이지. 힘을 다루는 법을 모르는 자도 마찬가지다! The weak don't even have the right to grasp at hope. And those who don't know how to wield power are no different!
Fan Nicknames for Heavy Iron 헵아 (Hep-Ah): This is a short combination of his full name, Hebi Aieon (헤비아이언). 헵떱 (Hep-Ddeob): it is a shortened combination of Hebi Aieon + W (pronounced "Ddeob-eul-yu" in Korean). It specifically refers to his upgraded form, Heavy Iron W.
Heavy Iron calling Mega Ambler "The Doctor", and Flame Nova "The Hero"
The first time in the series that a mythical creature was used as a motif, which contrasts with Tyrant Zero who is based on an Eastern dragon
By Season 3, S hadow X started calling Heavy Iron nicknames like “The Worst uncle”
However, despite preaching the survival of the fittest his behavior is highly contradictory: instead of revering a powerhouse like Tyrant Zero, he goes to ridiculous lengths just to fight against him. From an ideological standpoint, even if he doesn't fully trust Jun, he did promise him they would shape the future of the Metal Cardbots together. He also likely knows that while Tyrant Zero is incredibly powerful, he is absolutely not the type to keep subordinates around. Because of this, Heavy Iron is most likely fighting to protect Earth in his own unique way
Heavy Iron only started acting on his own to take down the final boss, Tyrant Zero. Because of this, he can't really be viewed as a villain like he was in Season 1. The real issue was that his methods for achieving that goal were so extreme and aggressive that he inevitably clashed with Jun's team
Heavy Iron preferred to handle things on his own using his own power. If Jun had truly wanted to understand him, he shouldn't have treated him like the other Metal Cardbots. Instead , he should have handed him his Weapon Cards and let him go all out in duels against powerful opponents. Because Jun never gave him the chance to fight at full strength on his own terms, Heavy Iron ultimately ended up turning his back on him
Things might have turned out differently if Jun had truly understood Heavy Iron’s personality, but it is a massive stretch to say Heavy Iron turned his back because Jun did something wrong. We shouldn't overlook the fact that the real issue lay with Heavy Iron, not Jun. Because Heavy Iron abruptly went rogue without ever sharing his true feelings or plans, Jun never even had a chance to realize what was happening or address it. Even if Jun had known what Heavy Iron wanted, the general consensus likely would have been that they couldn't just give in to the demands of an outlaw. Ultimately, their ways of achieving their goals were just too radically different, making their split completely inevitable
Known as the universe's strongest and most notorious outlaw, his infamy echoed across Planet Machina. He possesses a notoriously ruthless personality, causing other Metal Cardbots to avoid him at all costs though he couldn't care less. Driven by an unyielding pride, he loathes being taken lightly and operates entirely as a lone wolf. The director revealed on Twitter that Heavy Iron's unique pupil less eyes were designed to honor traditional Brave series robot aesthetics while emphasizing his villainous role. Even after switching to the good side, his pupils disappear whenever he loses his temper, now that he’s upgraded to his W form and left Jun's team, his eyes stay completely blank during normal times
In fact, Heavy Iron had been so desperate for power that he actually hated his past self for being weak. This intense obsession combined with the fact that Jun often neglected him is what caused his fixation to boil over like this. And it makes sense…even though he and Black Hook had double teamed Flame Nova in Episode 26 of Season 2, they still struggled against him. For someone as proud as Heavy Iron, it must have been deeply humiliating that he couldn't handle opponent on his own. This is exactly why he couldn't hide his blatant lack of interest during their rematch with solidhorn.
Some fans even speculate that after Heavy Iron was sealed, he actively resisted it because he felt Jun simply wasn't capable of utilizing his power properly. Of course, once sealed it didn't really matter whether he liked Jun or not, since he could no longer harm Jun or his friends. Ultimately, Heavy Iron likely agreed to team up because his goals aligned somewhat with Jun's minus the part about protecting humans.
When you look at his track record with the group, you can see why he was so frustrated. After finally joining them, he was immediately humiliated by being forced to stand in the corner like a misbehaving outlaw. Then, because Jun couldn't keep track of the Metal Breath, Heavy Iron ended up trapped inside it for an entire season. To top it off, he wasn't even allowed to fight at full strength or use his weapon cards against Flame Nova, and was later told to hold back during the mission to capture solidhorn. Anyone would have been completely disillusioned after dealing with all that
Jun has lived a completely normal human life, so he doesn't understand the grim reality of actual combat. But Heavy Iron has been through life or death battles, dealt with all kinds of shady characters, and knows just how brutal the real world can be. Because of this, he simply couldn't bring himself to leave everything in the hands of someone as naive and powerless as Jun. On top of that, besides not understanding each other’s personalities, their fighting styles were a mismatch from the start: Jun relies heavily on team coordination, while Heavy Iron prefers to charge straight ahead on his own
True to his outlaw nature, his default solution to any problem is brute force, and he possesses a fierce aggressiveness that easily rivals the Wild cardbots. Because of this, he is highly uncooperative and aggressively individualistic to the point where most Metal cardbots didn't just avoid him, they dreaded any association with him. Consequently, he had absolutely no social ties, save for outlaws like Black Hook. When left alone, he prefers to keep a low profile, usually reacting with blatant annoyance whenever anyone disturbs his peace. He holds no real malice toward humans, rather since they are beneath his notice, he simply couldn't care less about them.
As Planet Machina's most notorious outlaw, he possesses a fiercely individualistic streak and a blatant disregard for human life. His isolated, authoritarian nature makes him incredibly difficult to cooperate with, meaning he rarely if ever mingles with others. Furthermore, his plan to use the Star Crown to resurrect his species would have guaranteed the total extinction of the human race. Had he not been stopped, it would have meant an absolute global catastrophe a high stakes threat that secured his position as the undisputed final boss of Season 1, even as the narrative focused heavily on the Cardbots plight as refugees.
In Episode 11 of W, he delivered a shocking twist by not only willingly infecting himself with the Beast Virus but flatly refusing to rejoin Jun's group. However, when solidhorn questioned his defection, Heavy iron simply replied, "I just wanted to know the limits of my strength" suggesting his betrayal wasn't out of malice toward Jun, but a pure craving for power. When clashing with Black Hook again, he defended himself by stating "I didn't betray anyone. You just don't understand the meaning of this power!" As it turned out, Heavy Iron already knew about Tyrant Zero and intended to crush him personally, all while asserting his core philosophy that the weak are destined to be ruled by the strong. While he mentioned that the Beast Virus held a "special significance" what exactly he meant remains a mystery. Still, it remains highly questionable whether he can ever be forgiven, considering he unleashed an attack that would have literally slaughtered Jun's team had it hit its mark.
As revealed later in episode 15 of MCB W, he firmly believes the universe is governed strictly by the law of the jungle, viewing a peaceful life shared with comrades as a form of weakness. While he honors his promise to Jun and no longer harbors ambitions of global conquest, his methods contrast sharply with those of Jun and Blue Cop. While Jun seek to unite everyone to face a greater evil, Heavy Iron believes in rallying under a strong, ruthless leader and using any means necessary to confront an overwhelming power. In short, despite a streak of madness, he possesses absolute, unyielding personal doctrine and if that line is crossed, he reacts with decisive action and harsh condemnation. Driven by an unyielding will and a relentless pursuit of strength, he is a character willing to cast aside his own humanity if it means defeating a greater evil and protecting his people.
Solidhorn and Savannard were the only Wild/Metal Cardbots capable of even holding their own against Heavy Iron W. However, the two found themselves overpowered and defeated.
In fact, once Heavy Iron was freed from his seal, he gained the ability to wield Weapon Cards completely at will. Similarly with Bloodwing whom he formed a temporary alliance possessed the power to temporarily break the seals on other Metal Cardbots using the Beast Virus variant, allowing them to freely use their Weapon Cards as well. From this, it can be inferred that Heavy Iron’s ultimate goal is a world where everyone can freely utilize Weapon Cards, unlocking their full potential to stand against a overwhelming threat
While his original Iron Sword didn't showcase his destructive output well, his new Heavy Gunsword left an undeniable impact impaling Mega Ambler through the abdomen and inflicting injuries so severe he had to be placed in the Speranza’s life support system. Because the blade itself is incredibly sharp, Black Hook was left crippled and unable to stand properly upon reverting to robot mode after being stabbed, even though he managed to avoid contracting the Beast Virus. His new finishing move, Heavy dragon breath, boasts enough raw power to conjure literal mushroom clouds whenever fired at maximum output. However, unlike the highly stable Heavy buster cannon, this attack was shown to severely overheat his systems after a single blast, forcing him to undergo an energy recharge. Recognizing this flaw, he deliberately dialed back the output in subsequent uses to prevent an overload.
Later in Episode 20, he successfully landed a maximum power blast on Savannard. Despite having just run a brutal five match gauntlet against the Wild Cardbots including solidhorn and tachy without showing a hint of exhaustion, Savannard was instantly knocked unconscious as his Weapon Card forcefully detached, and the three vengeful spirits of the Wild Cardbots residing within him were entirely exorcised.
In Episode 21, when those infected by the Beast Virus began writhing in agony under Tyrant Zero’s influence, Heavy Iron W merely let out a low groan, enduring the pain while silently staring up at the moon. It was a stark, firsthand reminder that the sheer and terrifying presence of the Season 1 final boss hadn't faded in the slightest. in the new opening theme for W Part 2, his vehicle mode's eyes turn purple, but only in the very first scene. In robot mode, his eyes just have a faint purple tint, and later in the highlight reel, his vehicle mode is shown transforming with its usual yellow eyes again, leaving the true meaning behind this unclear.
To sum it up, he functions as a villain and final boss in Season 1, a defected ally in S, and an antagonist and anti hero in W. The common thread across his journey is his relentless pursuit of power. He respects anyone who can achieve and prove strength, regardless of its source, but desires his own supremacy above all else. If he sees an opportunity to grow stronger, he takes it without hesitation. While he has avoided inciting outright slaughter or war likely out of respect for his bond with Jun his history of triggering major catastrophes has permanently ruined his reputation, and the narrative makes absolutely no effort to sugarcoat his actions. Yet, there is a clear purpose behind his madness. Ever since his defeat by Jun, his ultimate goals have remained unchanged: his own strength and the future of the Machina race. He’s just a stubborn lone wolf who insists on doing things his own way, though Jun isn't entirely blameless for how things turned out.
