Gundham Tanaka

Gundham Tanaka is a contestant on the show Video Game All-Stars. He believes he is in touch with darkness, and although other people find it a little odd, he means well, and is rather kind. He appeared in the third season of the show.

Season 3
Before the season starts Gundham arrives with his dark devas aka hamsters. They are said to be dark beasts but were pretty peaceful on the show. On the bus to the season Gundham bonds with Hiro Akiba forming a close friendship throughout his time on the show.

He is placed on Team Cosmic Commanders, which he is content with, as he connects with many of his teammates. In Mercury Madness, Gundham goes in the first round against King Dedede and takes him out pretty fast. Later on he ends up going up against Mario. Mario ends up shooting the dark devas and killing them however they get revived later on. He doesn't know this and starts continuously punching Mario. Due to this distraction Mario is able to win and takes him out of the challenge.

He stays with his team in Joker and the 300 Spooky Monsters, thanking Lucina for finding a food supply to help them get through the night. He helps put the tent back after it blows away in the sandstorm, and makes it to the point in time, helping the Cosmic Commanders score their second win. In Mario's Big Bomb Blowout, he helps a lot, as he knows how to play. He passes the first bomb to Mario at the right time, putting him down to two lives. He is deemed a threat by Team Star Strikers after this, however, and is quickly eliminated from the challenge when Mario gets revenge.

Gundham doesn't make much note of the team swap, and continues to try his best in Netting In The Win, although the now more powerful Star Strikers manage to score more points. When the Cosmic Commanders have to eliminate two people, he suggests voting for Sonic and Viggo, as they weren't as close as the rest of the team. He doesn't do much of note in Kazooie's Torture Chamber, although his team is still safe in the end.

When the teams merge in Twinkies, Twonkies, Twonkos, Gundham is put in danger, as the voting between the ten remaining contestants puts him in a tie with Spyro and Luigi. However, after another vote to break the tie, he is safe, and Luigi is eliminated. He tries his best in Saturn Road Rage, but is knocked off the track by Captain Falcon when he gets a star. The following vote comes down to him and Joker, and it is revealed that Gundham is eliminated. He isn't upset by the result, saying goodbye to Lucina and saying the game won't matter in the long run.
