Ohdarko was a GEATHJERK mecha seen in The Wonderful 101. It served as the personal flagship of Vijounne.
GEATHJERK File[]
An underwater warship intended for close-range combat with a highly pressure-resistant design.
Using high-tension polyhalcon throughout the ship's structure, its octopus form faces little underwater pressure resistance, achieving depths of 20,000 meters beneath the sea's surface. The axion turbine that serves as the ship's energy source is almost completely silent, contributing to the ship's stealth. As the ship is also capable of sailing speeds up to 300 knots, it rivals even the fastest of high-speed military craft.
Ohdarko has a total of six multijointed heavy manipulators, each with a different weapon attached to its end, readying the ship for a variety of tactical situations. Among these six, the two frontal manipulators were design specifically for hand-to-hand combat and can easily outpower Gah-Goojin's power manipulators when armed with the right close-range weapons.
While the propulsive power in its axion jets make even high-altitude flight a possibility, its engine power is relatively weak compared to other ships of the same size, and so flight is only an option in emergency situations, when nautical travel is impossible.
[The following is added after entering Operation 006-B]
Besides the red painted TA-CO1 version, there are many other variants of Ohdarko ships including a blue TA-CO2 version, designed for arctic conditions, as well as a white TA-CO3 version that has been upgraded to take part in armed fleet warfare.
Description[]
Gameplay[]
Described as a "Tentacules-Class Amphibious Mobile Fortress", Ohdarko first appears in Operation 004-C as part of Vijounne's attempt to destroy one of the Super Reactors providing the shield protecting the Earth from the Geathjerk's assault. It engaged the Virgin Victory in a tug-of-war for the statue, only to lose both when the Wonderful 100 damaged the tentacles it was using to hold the statue.
Quickly pursuing the fleeing humans, Ohdarko caught up to the Virgin Victory on the surface of the ocean, seizing the ship with its tentacles and engaging the Wonderful 100 with its full arsenal. However, the heroes managed to destroy the machine's tentacles, freeing their vessel and allowing them to retrieve Luka from within. Undeterred, Vijounne brought the Ohdarko back for another attack, but the Wonderful Ones jumped onto it, slowly destroying its remaining weapons and limbs before Wonder-Blue finished it off with his Unite Sword ability. Vijounne narrowly escaped her mecha's destruction, vowing revenge on CENTINEL.
A second Ohdarko appeared in the first two chapters of Operation 006, attempting to hinder the Wonderful 100 when they arrived on Gocken Island in search of the final Super Reactor. This version of the Ohdarko was colored blue as opposed to the orginal red machine. It destroyed several paths with its tentacles as Vijounne taunted the heroes before retreating underwater to lure Wonder-Blue into a trap. It eventually battled the Virgin Victory, only to be destroyed by Wonder-Blue and Immorta's customized Gah-Goojin. This time, Vijounne was unable to escape her mecha's destruction, perishing with the second Ohdarko.
Ohdarko was part of the Giga-Goojin's boss battle as it drags Mother Platinum into the water.

Trivia[]
- The name Ohdarko is derived from "大だこ (ōdako)", a Japanese word meaning giant octopus, usually used in the context of octopus kaiju.[1]
- Likewise, the name of Ohdarko's variants, TA-CO1, TA-CO2, and TA-CO3, are derived from "タコ (tako)", the Japanese word for octopus.[1]
The unused white TACO-3 variant, displayed in the Enemy Files using mods
- Although its GEATHJERK File describes a third, white-colored TA-CO3 variant designed for fleet warfare, no such variant of Ohdarko ever appears in the game. However, this variant of Ohdarko does actually exist in the game files as unused content, and it can be viewed using external means or game modifications.
- Apart from the ones piloted by Vijounne, the only other Ohdarko ever encountered in the game appears as part of an attack performed by Giga-Goojin during Operation 008-C, which is where things get even more interesting: during the cutscene of Giga-Goojin summoning space beasts for the second phase of the fight, the tentacle of a green Ohdarko variant is shown in the cutscene, only for Giga-Goojin's actual Ohdarko attack to just use the blue TA-CO2 variant instead. This green Ohdarko's color scheme is similar to Kaizor Ohrowchee and Kaizor Diejeah, suggesting the possibility that there may have been plans for a "Kaizor Ohdarko" that made it as far as recoloring the Ohdarko model, only for it to end up being scrapped and repurposed for this cutscene. As for why this green Ohdarko is only used in the cutscene and not the actual fight remains a mystery.
- It's possible that Giga-Goojin's attack may have been meant to use an actually white TA-CO3, or that TA-CO3 was at one point planned to be an enemy in Operation 009's various space flight missions before being cut.
