* Borr
* Buster Borr

## Portrayal

**Borr** (ボラー, *Borā*), is the short member of the Neon Genesis Junior High Students, a covert group of Hyper Agents accessed as Gridman's Assist Weapons in the SSSS.GRIDMAN series.

While posing as human, Calibur usually sticks arounds Sho Utsumi as his bodyguard. In emergency situations, Borr accesses himself into his Assist Weapon form, the **Buster Borr** twin drill tank.

## Appearance

Despite looking younger and shorter than the rest of his NGJHS companions, Borr's human form appears androgynous from his orange hair tied in two medium low ponytails that he can be mistaken as a girl on the first glance. Above his short eyebrows, his eyes are mostly blue, but have the hint of another color in them like Rikka.

He wears a gray shirt with a black tie under a black button vest. Over it, he has a black jacket with a gold marking on its left side. He has black pants and shoes.

## Personality

Borr is more sassy and outspoken, like when he calls Utsumi a brat or says Rikka is going to be a handful. Being the youngest of the group, he is shown to be snarky and brash, often annoyed by Utsumi's mumbling due to comparing the combat situation to that in Ultra series, but nonetheless observant since he quick to notice Akane's suspicious behavior.

## Abilities

Like his fellow NGJHS members, Borr displays superhuman attributes and exceptional combat abilities in regular human form.

* **Scrap Maker Dagger**: Borr possesses a jagged survival knife.

## Access Mode

In times of need, Borr shouts his Assist Weapon name, "**Buster Borr**" as his morphing Access Code through the Junk. He becomes a futuristic yellow and white drill tank equipped with multiple missile launchers.

Depending on the battle situation, Borr becomes a combination unit to become Powered Zenon's thighs and the artillery launchpad-like configuration for Buster Gridman.

* **Normal Missiles**: Yellow missile that inflicts moderate damage on durable hide of a kaiju on its own, but proved much destructive if fired in numbers.
* **Forest Extinguisher Missiles**: Missile with blue, white, and black coloration that explode into a burst of water on the air to douse fires. This type is solely to minimize collateral damage in the battlefield such as forest fire.
* **Sydney Super Adhesive Missiles**: White missile which releases pink adhesive substance upon impact to keep the enemy locked in place. The substance turned white as it hardens, and strong enough to restrain Anti long enough to combine into Buster Gridman.
