Trying to promote the Engine, he enlists him and his team to the Nahel Argama or Nadesico, but at one point meets the enigmatic Duminuss, who wants the Engine for its own purposes. Attacking Raul and his team, the Engine gets damaged that it opens a wormhole, transporting them to a MUCH brighter past. After doubting to make changes that will preserve the future, Raul declares that MAYBE a Temporal Paradox won't hurt, if it's to fix the Bad Future. Duminuss continues to target him and the Engine, but its death throws Raul and his company back to their time...now brighter and sunnier because of his efforts to fix the past.

| - In Reversal, he originates in a Crapsack World where bad events like Chars Counterattack or Prince of Darkness is on the air. Trying to promote the Engine, he enlists him and his team to the Nahel Argama or Nadesico, but at one point meets the enigmatic Duminuss, who wants the Engine for its own purposes. Attacking Raul and his team, the Engine gets damaged that it opens a wormhole, transporting them to a MUCH brighter past. After doubting to make changes that will preserve the future, Raul declares that MAYBE a Temporal Paradox won't hurt, if it's to fix the Bad Future. Duminuss continues to target him and the Engine, but its death throws Raul and his company back to their time...now brighter and sunnier because of his efforts to fix the past. In Super Robot Wars Original Generations, he comes from the same world as the Shadow-Mirror and has a younger twin sister named Fiona. In the prologue to Original Generation 2, the team's sought by the Shadow-Mirror, but continues to elude them, until Lemon Browning sends Axel Almer to retrieve the Time Flow Engine. He proceeds to disable Fiona's Excellence when Duminuss pops out and sends an attack at Raul. Fiona takes the shot, but the shock of the attack causes the Engine in her unit to go haywire and open a dimensional gate, sucking the siblings in (fortunately for Axel, he eludes it). Raul, Raji and Mizuho wind up transported to the Original Generation universe, and ally with the Earth Federation Army (with some help from Gilliam Yeager) at the height of the war with the Inspectors and the Einst. Following the war, Raul, Raji and Mizuho join the Kurogane crew, with hopes that they might find Fiona. Six months later during Original Generation Gaiden, during a clash between Kouta Azuma and his Brainwashed and Crazy sister Shouko, the energies from the Compatible Kaiser and G Thundergate pop open a wormhole with Fiona and her Excellence coming out from it. While Raul catches up Fiona with current events, Duminuss' kidnaps Raji and Mizuho. In response, he and Fiona take their machines to battle the creature and rescue them both, alongside saving Duminuss' surviving Homunculi Despinis. Raul's story ends with him dismantling his Excellence, citing the Time Flow Engine is too dangerous and something like Duminuss will come again with hopes to seize the Engine and misuse it. Opting to open a junkyard/mechanic shop called "L&E Corporation" and taking in Despinis as a family member, Raul continues to become a test pilot for Mizuho's new rescue-oriented robotics. Which machine does he ride? The Excellence, of course, with a full set of frames, changeable to adapt to any situation/terrain. He later gets the Super Robot Genre Excellence "Lightning" as a final upgrade. Raul embodies these tropes:
* Call Back (In Scenario 27 for Original Generation Gaiden, Raul notes the environment is the same when they were attacked by Axel and Duminuss back in their world. Original Generation Gaiden reused the same map from Original Generations)
* Chest Blaster (Excellence Lightning's Black Sun)
* Cool Sword (Excellence Lightning's Dimension Slasher)
* Guns Akimbo (Cosmodiver frame)
* Leitmotif ("Over The Time Flow")
* Mecha Expansion Pack, Swiss Army Weapon (Excellence's multiple frames)
* Multicolored Hair (Black-red hair)
* Screw The Already Bleak Future
* She Is Not My Girlfriend (His standard reaction whenever people try to ship him with Mizuho)
* Spear Counterpart
* Half-Identical Twins (Original Generation only)
* Temporal Paradox, Time Travel (Reversal only; of note is he doesn't necessarily care that he might alter the future to be more of a crapsack than before)
* Transforming Mecha (Excellence is basically this; in Original Generation, it can change frames on the fly, as opposed to Reversal, where it can only change during the intermission or docked with an allied battleship)
