Murata is a fictional character in the Super Robot Wars series. He first appeared in the Super Robot Wars Dengeki manga has appeared as an enemy character in Super Robot Wars Original Generations.
A mercenary under the employ of Neo Divine Crusaders commander, Lorenzo Di Montegnacco, Murata was a former candidate for the elite Aggressors. His only desire is to slay and destroy any human or machine in battle with the Shishioh Blade he stole from his former master, Rishu Togo, head of the Jigen-Ryu school of swordsmanship. It is his belief that the sword is wielded not to protect, but only to kill. His Guarlion Custom machine is decorated to resemble a samurai, much like Sanger Zonvolt's Dygenguard appears as one.
Appearing in Original Generations, he and Lorenzo attacked and occupied an Earth Federation Army testing facility of the new mass-production Valsion Custom Type-CF. The ATX Team would quickly arrive at the location, but the rash Brooklyn Luckfield, pilot of the Huckebein MK II would attempt to intercept Murata, demanding to know why his Guarlion Custom carries the same Shishioh Blade as the one his master, Rishu Togo, created. Easily dodging Brookyln's attack, Murata moves in and destroys his MK II, while Lorenzo hijacks the Valsion Custom Type-CF, threatening the safety of the facility's hostages, including Kusuha Mizuha, who was sent to the testing site. However, Brooklyn, who escaped from the MK II, managed to get himself into the seat of Kusuha's Grungust Type-2 in the facility's hangar bay and engages Murata again. As their forces dwindled down from the assault by the ATX Team and the newly arrived Aggressors, Ryoto Hikawa and Rio Mei Long, Lorenzo and Murata fled the area.
