==Summary==
It has been over a century after the titular Gunvolt had fallen by the hands of Asimov (Bad Ending of Azure Striker Gunvolt). Copen Kamizono has built a cybernetic body for himself to continue his fight against Adepts, but for different reasons in Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX. Due to the actions of Asimov, Adepts have become the majority population in the world, with all humans being wiped out, save for the few known as "Minos". Throughout his journey saving Minos from the forces of the newly reformed "Sumeragi Institute of Human Evolution", he is known throughout the world as the Luminous Avenger- iX- savior of the Minos. His century long quest led him to meet a certain group of Minos kids hiding away in the city slums, where he would set up a new base of operations to protect them and end the Adept threat once and for all.
In Luminous Avenger iX2, due to his actions of slaying Demerzel, the world is slowly regaining peace, and Copen returns to his research hobbies. Throughout one of his adventures, he has stumbled across a certain "Blaster Rifle" that has an unknown origin. Repairing it, he accidentally triggers its ability to create a wormhole, sending him into a parallel world where only robots named "Workers" exist.

Powers and Abilities:
<tabber>
|-|Base=
|-|Lola=Improved Power Mimicry (Was able to copy the Falcons' and Blade's abilities seemingly without analyzing them in any way. He even copied Blade's ability without killing them), Flight, Hacking (has shown various hacking skills, as well as masking capabilities), Enhanced Senses (can detect Sumeragi unit motions and signatures), limited Telekinesis, Resurrection, Controls small orbs that can use Copen's EX weapons and become sharp called Bits, Berserk Mode via Darkness Trigger, Extrasensory Perception (able to detect other Septima) | Spammable Full Healing
|-|With Anthem= 
Unlimited Bullits for infinite Prevasion and Bullit Dashes, Possibly Regeneration (Mid-Godly, possibly comparable to Gunvolt's regeneration) and Immortality (Type 3)
|-|Resistances=
Resistance to Water Manipulation, Layered Hacking and Layered Technological Manipulation (Possibly 4D; Teseo and Milas are all completely unable to effect his gear with their Septima,Teseo and Milas's Dangeki Profiles though Gunvolt is capable of disabling his Prevasion subroutine), Absolute Zero (Copen can survive and break free of Tenjian's ice attacks, that are stated to be below absolute zero and can shatter a person's molecular structure), Life Manipulation (capable of fighting Gibril, despite the latter being able to drain away all organic life, and instantly kill organic beings as evidenced by his own Ferrous Fangs), Light Manipulation, Spatial Manipulation, Existence Erasure, Limited Heat Manipulation (while he can still be hit by fire attacks, should likely resist high temperatures like in Viper's Stage. In iX2 survives the heat of volcanic magma.), Layered Power Nullification and Layered Magnetism Manipulation, Petrification, Organic Manipulation and Limited Absorption, Metal Manipulation (him and his equipment is resistant to previously studied Septimal abilities in general, including the abilities of all of the Sumeragi Swordsmen and has shown to resist the effect of some of the Eden Seven's effects without said research)
 
|-|With Subroutines=
</tabber>
Attack Potency: At least Mountain level+ (Should be comparable to himself from Azure Striker Gunvolt 2, as they use the same exact base equipment. While he lost to base Blade at the beginning of the game, eventually caught up to her.), higher with Twin Shredder, Multi-Continent level Anthem and Darkness Trigger | Multi-Continent level (Able to fight Berserk Trigger Blade and Demerzel, who is much more powerful than Asimov, without the need of Anthem, though is ultimately still weaker than both of them), higher with Twin Shreder, Anthem, and Darkness Trigger | At least Multi-Continent level (Stated his armor to be upgrades to be stronger than ever. His Break Shift form is notably stronger than his Bullit Shift form, which is modeled after his original armor. Fought the Mother Computer and Kirin (Albeit without Image Pulses or Gunvolt)), higher with Anthem and CoLoSSAL Maelstrom
Speed: Relativistic+ travel speed with FTL+ combat speed and reactions (Fast enough to fight on equal terms with Gunvolt in the past, Some of his attacks utilize actual lasers- as his Divider is known as a "Photon Blaster" different from the ones that Sumeragi uses. The Photon Blaster's straight shots reflect off of various surfaces such as Blade and Dystine's defenses, as well as Bakto's attacks. He should be comparable to Viper, who was stated by Jota, the "Lightspeed" Septima wielding Adept he based his Divider on, to fight "as fast as light" according to his mannerisms. Kept up with and defeated Kirin in Luminous Avenger iX2.), much higher with Bullit Dashing (Bullit Dashes are much faster than Gunvolt’s Dash)
Lifting Strength: Class M, likely higher due to being a cyborg (Should be comparable to his ASG2 Self). Lola is at least Average Human with telekinesis (Capable of lifting Copen sky high into the air to reach the upper parts of a massive radio tower)
Striking Strength: At least Mountain level+, Multi-Continent level with Anthem and Darkness Trigger | Multi-Continent level | Multi-Continent level 
Durability: At least Mountain level+ (Can take hits from Blade), Multi-Continent level with Anthem and Darkness Trigger, Prevasion makes him very difficult to kill | Multi-Continent level (Can take hits from Berserk Trigger Blade and Demerzel), Prevasion makes him very difficult to kill | Multi-Continent level, higher with Anthem and Break-Shift Mode, Healing and Hyper Guard make him very difficult to kill (while the Bullit-Shift Mode is notably weaker, it should not be weaker than Copen's previous White Tiger Jacket, which is based on in design, when Copen takes a hit the armor changes back to Break-Shift mode just before impactGunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX2 Official Website)
Stamina: Superhuman (Likely far higher as a cyborg compared to his main counterpart, although still limited. He does not need to eat, and has been fighting for a century without a proper place to rest or repair)
Range: Hundreds of Meters with his gun and projectile-based attacks (Considering the futuristic setting, his Divider should at least be similar in range to firearms of today, if not far greater as a Photon Blaster) | Extended Melee Range with the Razor Wheel, a few meters with the Boomrazor subroute, retains previous range with EX-Weapons and a Tagged Razor Wheel, Interdimensional Dimensional Travel and Portal Creation (Copen used the Razor Wheel's ability to create a portal back to his home dimension, despite not knowing exactly where his home in his dimension would be in, and still made it back to the desired location)
Standard Equipment: Lola and her Bits, Divider, his White Tiger Jacket, Subroutines from LAiX | Lola, Razor Wheel, Break-Shift Form and Bullit-Shift Form, likely the advertised Hyper Guard subroutine, Subroutines from LAiX2
Intelligence: Above Average in combat, Extraordinary Genius in science and other aspects (At the age of 14, he is more than capable of constructing weapons that can emulate the Septimosome of adepts he's fought, as well as building them by himself outright. Stated to be a scientist on par with Sumeragi's best. Made a human-like self-teaching artificial intelligence with emotions over a century before corporations were able to create AI that had emotions. Able to effortlessly solve a Rubik's Cube in just a few seconds. In combat, is capable of fighting Adepts which physically overpower him, even though his equipment allows him to compete. Has been fighting for over a hundred years against Adepts with varying powers, constantly trying to find and destroy him along with the rest of humanity- leaving nearly no significant down time for Copen to have ever stopped him from accumulating combat experience from each battle. Defeated Crimm who consistently encloses himself in a shield to be impervious to all attacks. Defeated Rebellio who specializes in hit and run based tactics with large amounts of Area of Effect. Defeated Dystnine, who can constantly reflect his primary and only methods of meaningfully damaging attacks and can become invisible. Can fight Vespa and Autochrome at the same time, despite the two being designed to fight together. Can fight Dacite, Brigade, and Hail, Gravekeepers than have centuries of combat experience defending the Grave Pillar, the latter of which can Time Stop. Considers the nutritional information of tomatoes and the entire history of "pixel art" common knowledge.)
Weaknesses: If his camera eyes are damaged, they create minor static in his vision. Likely due to it most likely being artificially replicated rather than properly copied, Copen's Prevasion is bypassed by any electricity instead of only the electricity used by Azure Strikers. However, he is less cold-hearted than before and doesn't seem to have an active hatred of Adepts, and he now can load any number of subroutines without worrying about bugs. Lola, controlling the Bits and thus the EX Weapons becomes more difficult. | Same as before, Lacks the range and mobility of his previous gear
===Notable Attacks and Techniques:===
<tabber>
|-|Copen: Man of Science=
Unlike the Adepts he is destined to fight, Copen has no Septima of his own. Instead, using his extraordinary gift for science and technology, he had made many countless equipment and machines to even the playing field in one on one combat. This allows him to match and even surpass most Adepts, defeating one of the Sumeragi Swordsmen, Zonda, on his own, before proving himself to be a rival in fighting power to the Azure Striker himself, Gunvolt.
While capable of creating advanced AI, drones, and suits that enhance his physical capability, Copen's most impressive feat in terms of his aptitude with science is without a doubt, replicating Septimas from something as simple as a broken piece of a glaive, or even some blood of any dead Adept he comes across. While these creations are not on par with the real deal, Copen sometimes can make improvements or variants of the Septima that can even surpass the original's in terms of effectiveness.
|-|Equipment=
|-|Lola=
A combat pod with an advanced, self learning AI Copen created. She is effectively the replacement for Copen's EX Gear, only coming into action after the events of Azure Striker Gunvolt 1, with a personality to boot. Lola controls the bits, small orbs that let Copen use his EX Weapons and allow him access certain Skills. The EX Weapon System is implemented into her, much like the EX Gear before it- allowing her to analyze and copy the abilities of previously battled foes.
|-|Skills=
*Twin Shredder: A variation of Shred Storm, this time adding Copen and Lola in the mix to attack. (LAiX)
**Regenerator: As an optional upgrade, Copen regains all of his health back at the use of his Twin Shredder.
*CoLoSSAL Maelstrom: Temporarily changing Lola into her Darkness Mode, she and Copen clear the screen with a terrifying myriad of slashes. (LAiX2)
*Healing: Lola changes to her brand new healing mode. She instantly heals Copen back to full HP at practically no cost, aside from gained Kudoes points, though Kudos are not a requirement to heal at all. She can use this at any point during a battle (LAiX2)
|-|The Muse of Hope=
*Anthem: Similar to Gunvolt's, Lola comes out to take in place of Joule this time around to restore Copen's health to full when he is defeated. Copen's Bullits are now infinite, and the power boost is still apparent. Like with Gunvolt, Copen with infinite Bullits means infinite Bullit Dashes and Prevasion.

*Darkness Trigger: Lola's new form exclusive to the Luminous Avenger iX timeline taken from Blade's Berserk Trigger, upgrading all of Copen's EX Skills and using them automatically on enemies, giving him an infinite amount of EX Weapon Energy to utilize. However, the drawback of this is that it slowly drains Copen's health if he doesn't have an enemy actively tagged, but can't kill him. (LAiX)

Note: Prevasion is an ability available via default, and therefore is standard equipment. However, Copen with and without Prevasion fights exactly same, and aside from the intro stages of the games, the cast and Copen himself mostly ignore its existence in favor of other defensive options, such as the Bullit Dash- due to actively not relying on it in story. Since he fights effectively the same with or without Prevasion, it can be restricted or disabled for his Luminous Avenger iX keys. The same applies to Luminous Avenger iX2's Hyper Guard and the rest of Copen's Subroutines. Anthem is a similar story and is not integral to how Copen fights, and can also be restricted.
Note 2: It should also be noted that Copen in Azure Striker Gunvolt 2's Prevasion is only pierced by the lightning of Azure Strikers due to their control over Electrons, while in Luminous Avenger iX even the lightning used by basic enemies are able to bypass it.
Note 3: The True Ending of Luminous Avenger iX2 is locked behind the Hard Mode of the game. As it is a continuation of the story, and it is the only set of events that actually link back to the prologue's "Please Save" dialogue.
Note 4: While Copen does not have the Prevasion subroutine installed in his armor for Luminous Avenger iX2 (due to uninstalling it), should he return to his world, he can reinstall it into his new armor with presumably, not much Preparation Time.
Note 5: While their battle in Luminous Avenger iX 2's DLC is considered to be canon to both series, Copen is not scaled to Jason Frudnick. This is because even the lowest ends for Jason's Attack Potency and Speed are trillions of times higher than anything in the Gunvolt franchise, not to mention it's unlikely that Jason was battling Copen with the intent to kill.
Note 6: Technically, Copen does not need Lola to control the Bits and his EX Weapons or Flashfield as shown in the True Ending of Azure Striker Gunvolt 2, however- Lola is designed specifically to prevent the struggles of multitasking of controlling the Bits at the same time as fighting.Lola's Gunvolt 2 Nintendo Dengeki Profile
