History
Otomo (Japanese: 大友, Hepburn: Ōtomo) were a series of human-like androids that were constructed by the Kanemitsu Zaibatsu. One unit was dispatched by the Japanese corporation to Detroit in order to destroy RoboCop after it went rogue from Omni Consumer Products. It hunted down and killed a group of rebels, stealing an overlay for a map in the process and then stole a map from a gas station and placed the overlay map over it. Having discovered the location of the rebel base, it arrived to find that McDaggett and his team had already cleared it out, but the android decided to wait in case RoboCop showed up. RoboCop indeed arrived and was attacked by the Otomo. It flipped through the air, kicking and punching RoboCop, knocking him off his feet as he continued to try and arrest the Otomo. The android sliced his gun in half and as he raised his hand Otomo cut his fingers off, then his whole forearm and hand. As the Otomo prepared to strike again, RoboCop reached for his gunarm attachment and equipped it. The Otomo lifted its sword to strike as RoboCop fired a missile, taking the Otomo's head off. Its headless body swung its sword and fell to the ground. Later, RoboCop flew into the OCP tower with his flightpack to find McDaggett waiting for him. Two other Otomo androids confronted RoboCop and nearly managed to defeat him until Nikko Halloran succeeded in reprogramming them. Nikko set both to identify the other as an enemy, forcing them to destroy each other. This, however, triggered the self-destruct in both units. RoboCop reignited his flightpack and hit McDaggett's leg with the discharge, rendering him immobile. Robocop escaped with Nikko and Lazarus, while McDaggett perished in the blast from the downed androids.
