Latune Subbota

14-year-old Latune Subbota is one of the youngest Banpresto original pilots to exist. Her last name, Subbota, means Saturday in several Slavic languages. Close friend Giado Venerdi chose it for her because Venerdi is Friday in Italian, and his girlfriend Garnet's surname is Sunday.

Prior to joining the crew of the Hagane, she is extremely withdrawn, and suffers from androphobia and depression, rarely talking to anyone. In some cases, a request would have to be made to her through Giado or Garnet before she would respond. However, she makes up for her lack of communication with her intelligence and battle tactics. After she develops a crush on SRX Team member Ryusei Date, she finds herself becoming more open with other people. In the subsequent Original Generation Gaiden, Ryusei's influence makes itself obvious in Latune's newfound tendency to shout grandiose attack names, whenever she pilots different machines.
