Unused elements suggest the game would have been darker, have maps fully-rendered in 3D, and feature customization options not present in the final game. Contents.Unused Text Removed Chat ModeIn the game's 10th message file in the local folder, there is the text used in the Wireless Network mode. The dialog mentions a chat mode. Apparently, the game had a feature where you could chat with other players locally.
Nominate for Retro Game of the Day: If you'd like to nominate MegaMan Star Force - Pegasus (U)(XenoPhobia) for Retro Game of the Day, please submit a screenshot and description for it. The moment they are approved (we approve submissions twice a day.), you will be able to nominate this title as. Mega Man Star Force, known as Shooting Star Rockman (流星のロックマン Ryuusei no Rokkuman) in Japan, is a Mega Man series created by Capcom in 2006. The series is set in the same parallel universe as the Mega Man Battle Network series, about two-hundred years after it, in the 220X time period.
This feature is not present in the final version of the game. However, checking the font table for the game, characters that appear to represent smileys are in the table. This is the only evidence of this chat mode since menu selections and graphics don't appear for this mode. This feature was probably removed since they figured out that local-only chat was really, really, unnecessary.
Full Weapon Name ListIn the game's local 101th message file is a list of equipable weapons. However, this list is different from the list the game actually uses for the weapons. All the weapon names are spelled out much more completely and there are no real descriptions.
It's possible that names in the game would have been able to fit more characters than the 11 allowed in the game.Pointed FangsSlashing ClawsPorcuNeedlesBear RingCobra FangsBlinding EyeThief's ArmbandPower RingDemon's EyeRapid-Fire ClawParalyzerSteel FistHammer GloveZenny FinderCard FinderSweet MirageKaiser KnuckleMagic BreathFM BraceletStarForce PowerB.Net BlasterAll the weapons have the generic description of '(Weapon name written in the game's shortened version) Desc.' Debug TextLike Battle Network, Star Force has a list of debug commands used by the developers. There are similar commands on the list and not all of them have been tested. It is interesting to see dev talk on the Andromeda debug. It mentions how simply getting it isn't the same as getting it through wireless.See Bros.

In a prototype of the game, Geo Stelar had a different, dorkier-looking portrait. The portrait was quickly redone and the game no longer uses it. However, the game had a special connection with: Lunar Knights featured a Mega Man Star Force cameo where Geo appeared after connecting with the Mega Man Star Force game. A very similar portrait appeared in Lunar Knights, clearly based on the Geo's early portrait.
There is also a Mega Man portrait in Lunar Knights, but it's based more on the final portrait than the early one. Also in the game's subscreen archive is this graphic of Mega Man. This graphic is unusual because not only is it unused, it seems incomplete.
It looks like a sketched out placeholder graphic for Mega Man, probably on some status screen because it's screen-sized. The format is also different from the other graphics. All other illustrations in the game are 8bpp with a simple tilemap to arrange it. This graphic is 4bpp and uses a tilemap to use slightly more colors.
There also isn't any black outline. The format suggest the image is really old, probably related to the parts customization feature for which there isn't any graphical connection to.
There is also an image of Geo in a similar style (screen sized and low-quality) but the tilemap data is corrupted and the palette is incomplete, making it impossible to rip. The blue tip on his hair is from bad texture.Inside the game ROM, there are contents seemingly 'leftover' from Battle Network, which include 3D models of MegaMan.EXE, Lan Hikari (Netto in Japan), a boy, and a generic NetNavi. They also include animations.When they were first discovered in 2010, they were glitchy due to the software they were being viewed in.
However, by opening them through a third-party editor 'MKDS Course Modifier,' we can see the models and their animations work (mostly). Animations include running, walking, shooting (the models also include a MegaBuster for MegaMan as well as a boot, which strangely enough would seem to fit Star Force MegaMan's proportions.) and flinching (albeit glitchy) from getting hit.The models are quite distorted and disproportionate. For example, MegaMan has square rings for the cuffs of his gloves and boots, an enlarged emblem, and no backpack. Also, it is not based off his model from Battle Network 5: Double Team, which came with a far more accurate model that's used throughout the entire game, as well as some complete animations which were never used.Lan's model has a disproportionate head, plus his torso is rather small, which results in his arms flailing around during his run cycle. Also, he runs! He has no roller skates like in every other game he has appeared in.The boy has quite complicated textures.
Whoever worked on these models took the head model for Lan and placed the texture from the sprite of the boy character onto the model, which results in him having poor-quality eye textures.The generic Net Navi character is so generic that there is nothing to say about him. He has the exact same animations as the other characters which is what makes him so generic. Also found were models for a couple of stages, including full models for ACDC Town, Lan's room (complete with a closet, which has boxes of battle chips similar to those from Higsby's Chip Shop), a Net Area, and finally a Battle Stage. ACDC Town is pretty complete.
Interestingly, it has 2 relics from long-lost sponsorship deals with Honda and 7/11. Strangely, everything visible is connected to the center of the map, except the Honda letters, which are connected to boxes directly in front of them.Lan's Room has nothing special except that there's an object obscuring the view to his computer monitor, as well as the door to the closet being far too small, which brings us to something later discussed. Net Area is a very accurate rendition from one in the first game.Since the proportions of the areas and the models aren't quite right, this seems to have merely been a test by Capcom to try out the hardware capabilities of the Nintendo DS.Unused Enemies Test EnemiesThe video on the right shows two test enemies present in the game's data. The first one (called 'Mettenna' during battle) does not appear on the field until the battle begins, after which it will appear as a 1HP Dragon Sky which can neither harm nor be harmed by Mega Man (expect with the DrknesHole Giga Card) and just stays in place. Oddly enough, while the TestVirus can be 'deleted' with the DrknesHole card, only the HP number underneath it disappears and the battle doesn't end. The second one (called 'TaurusFire' during battle) appears as a 500HP Fire Leo Mega Man, most likely used to test boss fights, which does nothing but continuously uses AntiSword. Unlike the first virus however, this one can be damaged and can damage Mega Man if a sword-type Battle Card is used against it.
The Test Mega Man always gives a GrndWave card upon defeat. Unused VersionsEvery boss has six slots, but only three of them are used (Except Gemini Spark, who uses all six slots for Gemini Spark White and Black). The rest of the slots contain placeholders labeled with numbers (For example, Taurus Fire's fourth slot is labeled TaurusFire4) that have the same stats as the SP version of the boss. Andromeda, the final boss, has four unused slots, with Andromeda Infinity being used in the third slot. Andromeda2 has the same stats as Andromeda, while Andromeda4-6 have the same stats as Andromeda Infinity.Regional Differences.
This needs some investigation.Discuss ideas and findings on the.Specifically: How exactly does the anti-piracy check work?If the game detects it is a pirated copy, the game will repeatedly display the message 'Hey, hurry up and touch the train, kid!' (in the English version) during a scene shortly before the first battle. After dismissing it, pressing any button will cause it to display again.
The main character of the series. A 12-year old boy who lost his father Kelvin three years prior the start of the story. Because of this, he becomes a social outcast that spends his entire day at home messing with gadgets and studying instead of going to school.
His dream is to one day become an astronaut, so he can go to space to find his father, who he believes is still alive.After encountering Omega-Xis, he is able to fuse with him to form Mega Man. But as Omega-Xis cannot control him like the other FM-ians do with their hosts, Geo is forced to learn how to fight himself and to work with Omega-Xis, so he can tell him about his father's whereabouts.: An interesting variant; instead of the straight-up cannon, the first two games had Geo's arm swallowed by Omega-Xis'.: Not so much in the first game, but he grows into it by the 3rd game.:.: Ohhhhhh, yes. He takes absolutely no measures in adjusting his voice and he's the only person with that particular hairstyle in all three games, so this banks almost entirely on a personality-disconnect between his lives.: At, Geo's this by default, but he's especially cute when we see his little little kid appearance in Black and Red flashbacks.: A moment occurs, here and there. For example: At the end of the Noise Wave, Geo and Mega wonder if they've found Dealer's Base.
They then see the giant King Card Matter Wave. An alien that (literally) fell from the sky on Geo's head. A loud-mouthed FM-ian that seems to know what happened to Geo's father but refuses to tell him. He is the one who fuses with Geo in order to form the Mega Man of this continuity. Unlike the other FM-ians, Omega-Xis cannot control Geo's mind while they are fused, and so he has to depend on the kid's ability to fight.It is later revealed that he was one of the aliens who attacked Kelvin's space station, and turned him into an EM-being in order to save his life.
Not only that, but Omega-Xis is also an AM-ian, and not a FM-ian like he first claimed to be. This is the reason he is able to recieve the powers of the Star Force. Aside from that, he is also carrying the Andromeda Key, the key for activating Andromeda, a deadly weapon of the Planet FM.Gradually over the time, Omega-Xis (that everyone calls 'Mega' to short) gradually becomes more friendly and becomes a genuine friend of Geo, instead of only using him because he needs to fight and cannot do it alone.: Type III. A 12-year old girl who is also a famous singer and actress. Like Geo, Sonia also has an alien partner named Lyra, and can fuse with her in order to form Harp Note (called Lyra Note in the English dub of the anime.)Sonia became a singer in order to make her mother happy, but after her mother died, her manager began using her success for his own financial gain. Her depression is what called Lyra to her, and after being defeated they both become allies. Like Geo, Sonia can't have her mind controlled by Lyra and so relies in her own fighting strength during battles.
She is the first person Geo forms a brotherband with.: She shows signs of this while on a date with Geo in the second game. And in the third game if you save 's or 's stuff.: Joins forces with Vega and company towards the end of the second game, under the impression that they would leave Geo alone if she helped them find the location of the superweapon Mu.
They attacked him anyways, however, as.: In the first game, she leads you on a chase towards to Amaken when you attempt to fight her, pausing to attack you from afar.: She is one of these in the first game, but quits under her manager after meeting Geo, by the beginning of the second game, she began singing again.: She starts off as a —her perpetually happy mood was really a mask, but a good deal of Geo's character development is kicked off. After that, she's pretty much non-stop buoyant and perky.: Harp Note—her and Lyra's combined form.: Her last name in the Japanese version (Hibiki) means echo and you first witness her form in Echo Ridge. Of Geo's class, Luna aims to the next ellection and her main goal is to get Geo back at school in order to raise her status by making 'the bad apple' going back to class. Luna is a very heavy and one of the members of the Sonia-Geo-Luna love triangle. Despite being quite popular in Japan,Later on the game, her parents plan to transfer her from her current school because of the strange incidents she gets into.
The alien Ophiuca takes advantage on this and controls her to get revenge on her parents. After the incident, she makes up with her parents and they give up on transfering her.: Is the richest and most fashionable out of all of Geo's associates. She has one in the anime (complete with —wait, a ). In the games she only lives in a condominium with her parents, who do own a whole department store, mind you.: In the anime.: And she's absolutely hell-bent on being elected to the student body presidency. Winning the election is her primary motivation for doing anything for the first half of both the first and third games, and is the reason she goes after Geo at the start of the series (it would look very good for her she could demonstrate she was responsible for making sure all of her class was present, including a certain ).: You'll be surprised how many times she gets in danger in all three games. And how many times she gets kidnapped in the second.:. Luna is the of Dread Lazer attack, which is given a 'Hit' animation that's highly evocative of the original defeat sequences.
However, while Geo is at first stunned enough to let the villains escape, he later refuses to acknowledge even the possibility of Luna being gone, despite Sonia's, Bud's, and Zack's grief. Later on, it turns out Geo was right, and part of the game is spent reclaiming her fragmented pieces, and hoping against hope that WAXA (which estimates a 30% success chance with their current technology) can put her back together again.: After seeing the boys getting to know Amy (and assuming Geo has romantic interests in her), she orders Geo to sleep on the couch in the suite. Interestingly, there are only three beds in the suite for the four guests, so one wonders what the arrangement would've been if Geo hadn't been exiled.: To, not Geo, in the anime.: The anime focuses too much on her tsun side.: She tries, she really does.
But do not put her in charge of anything that requires creative talent. Three famous instances: The Mega Man costume in the first game, which Geo actually ends up able to walk around in without being recognized; naming her team in 3 'Luna 4 Prez', and naming Zack's dog 'Catnip'. Interestingly, this doesn't particularly affect what appears to be some impressive talents at both the piano and fencing.
She has a case full of trophies set into the wall of her room.: Has a frog 'stuffie' in the games, and an assorted collection of large plush in the anime.: After she and Geo start getting along.: Tries this on in the third game. It doesn't work—the alien half of the monster tells her that.: Ophiuchus Queen takes the cake and eats it before you even knew it was there.: In the anime, Ophiuca initially subjugates Luna, but RockMan's presence is enough to pull out a chunk of Luna's personality. Which leads us to a scene in which Queen Ophiuca becomes rather obsessive with RockMan's attention.: Try sexy monster girl.: Luna as Ophiuchus Queen is wearing a. And frankly.: There are so many implications about. Apparently the outfit also grants her (but only in the first game; the mindless monster that returns in the second has no such invulnerability).: Not in battle, though her attack will paralyze you.
In battle with her, she has no posionous or HP Draining attacks. However, her Mega Card has her attack leave poison panels in its wake. Also, she sics a snake on Sonia, putting her out of the fight.: It gets a at points, as she maintains she has feelings only for MegaMan whenever she has an awkward moment with Geo.: Her trademark hairstyle, and at the very least the in any media.
In the anime, she is shown with at least once. The Megaman Wiki claims her supercurls are meant to evoke rabbit ears. Combining that and with her Wizard, Mode, begins to suggest the myth.: During the attack at, things get bad enough that Luna comes to find MegaMan for advice on what to do. The act of deferring her judgment to another sets Joker off.: She lets one out when she's given the designation of honor at the village of Nansca's ceremony.: In the anime her stockings are straight up baby blue.
In the games, they're a darker blue with a light yellow spiral pattern.: This is 's basic design.: Most notably in the first game. Luna is the focal point of Geo's getting a handle on both the Star Force and Tribe power-ups; in the first case, he grows determined to protect her; in the second, she deliberately remains with an uncontrollable Geo in an, and it is their developed relationship (and the resulting jump in their shared ) that allows him to conquer the OOPArt.: When it's loose.: The blue to Sonia's red, and slight subversion, maybe. She's more down-to-earth practical-minded than Sonia (except in the rare cases you manage to upset her - thus the subversion); so really, she's the Tsundere to Sonia's. Need further proof? Luna's is most often seen in blue, and Sonia in pink.: To many of the, she comes across like.
She's not in the slightest, in fact, she really, but fears that she'll get hurt if she opens up to people.: Her outfit has all the trappings of a school uniform, but she's the only one who wears anything of the like.: She pursues Geo initially to score major student body politic points for the upcoming election. She wins and becomes one in the third game.: The end of her introductory scene in the second game sees her fussing over Geo's, Bud's, and Zack's health and welfare. Judging from their responses, it would seem this is pretty routine.: Late in the first season of the anime, she spends her portion of a shared learning how to cook—for RockMan, from Akane, and. Her job in the post-game of BerShiDin is an attempt to try and cooking a pastry. Geo, cheerfully gathers ingredients from around the world for her—actually going so far as to invert their usual dynamic and making her demand he.: The anime incident was spurred on by a weekly televised poll for 'Most Desirable Women'.
The next time she catches it, the results indicate a 'Woman Who Can Clean House', so Luna ends up trying to kick Subaru out of his own room so she can clean it. Akane apparently likes it when there's more noise in the house.: Her early efforts do not bode well for our hero.: She joined with Ophiuchus briefly, and traces of that power are left in her body, though she does not use the power in Ace and Joker.: With Geo and Sonia.: Big time, but only once you get to really know her. And we mean really, REALLY know her. It's better in the 3rd game, where we see she's a Type A almost right off the bat. One of Geo's friends and a. Follower of Luna alongside Zack.
He seems to be a tough guy, but the just really wants friends. He gets possessed by Taurus very early in the first game, and in the third becomes a team with him.: You better darn sure you be respectful around Luna, or Bud will get very, very upset with you.: A fairly major portion of his character, and one of his chief distinguishing characteristics when compared to, whose niche he otherwise fulfills. One of Geo's friends and a. Follower of Luna alongside Bud. He is small and smart, and the only one of Geo's close circle of friends to never get possessed by an EM-being. He does have a Wizard names Pedia in the third game, but is unable to EM Wave Change (altough a Mr.Hertz in his room says that he often train poses for EM Wave Change in front of his mirror).: His first name is a shortened form of the Hebrew language (southwest asia) name Zechariah, which means God has remembered.
Zack can also be an adaptation of Zachary, or, frankly, just plain Zack. It's not that uncommon.: Poor, poor Zack. He's the one part of a group of friends that hasn't been, but it's only in private that this shows: in the third game, one of the Mr.
Hertzes in his house will reveal that Zack and Pedia have been practicing the E-M Wave Change pose in front of a mirror.: Both he and Bud are extremely loyal to Luna. (This causes them some trouble every once in a while).: See above.
Also, he laments his inability to do anything useful for Geo/Mega Man at the end of the first game.: So, so much.: In the anime.: To Bud's. His Wizard, Pedia (as in Encyclopedia) is either the admin, holder, or the embodiment of the Zackpedia, which is Zack's information database,.: His last name (Temple) may come from the antomical term temporal cortex as the temple is the name of the head directly in front of there.: with Bud, until Bud gets a promotion. See.: Averted, as he is the only one of the five kids that does not meet up with an alien partner. Though he does get a wizard like the other four. Geo's mother.
Unlike her son, she has more-or-less moved on after her husband's disappearance, altough she still hopes for him to come back.She plays a very minor role in the first two games, but in the third not only she discovers that her son is Mega Man, but she is also an old friend of Heartless.: In the first season of the anime, MegaMan spends a day as a delivery boy to make up for a post office mess-up caused by his fight with a virus, which involves him visiting his own home and delivering a mail-order pan to his mother. Come the end of the second season, where Harp Note has no idea why Akane is addressing her as 'Ms. Delivery Girl'.: To his credit, Geo did manage to get through almost three whole games without raising anything more than suspicions.
It wasn't until Heartless dropped by to confirm it that she properly understood, though.: She and Luna have a solid rapport with each other in the anime, starting when she teaches Luna how to cook. She also has a strong sense of mischief and isn't above letting life be difficult for her son.
She stops short of outright antics, however.: Phantom Black kidnaps her and.: Not much of one, though she certainly approves of Geo's return to school. One thing to consider is how, for Geo, going back to school is more of a reflection of his emotional state.: Akane has a couple of cooking moments in the anime, primarily receiving her mail-order saucepan and teaching Luna how to cook.: She has some elements of this, though it manifests in her quirkiness rather than her general demeanor.: Near the end of the Tribe anime, Phantom Black kidnaps Akane, tossing her over his shoulder and ditching. The following chase scene, while simply just a full frontal shot of Phantom Black running from RockMan and Harp Note, allows him the remarkable opportunity to aim Akane's ass square at the camera. And it stays there for a while, even as she begs him to let her go.: During the moment illustrated in, Akane muses about Subaru still being a little boy for all his supposed maturity, but makes a during the statement, which is not helped in coming directly after. The fandom does not seem to want to let this go, naturally.: In the anime. To her, Rockman will always be the delivery boy.: While she has small flashes of insight into Geo's secret life, she still comes across as a smidgeon selfish when she tries to insist Geo stay out of harm's way.
In the third game after a final flash of insight.: In the anime, Akane will tease Subaru about the girls in his life. At one point in the first season, Akane asks Subaru if he likes. He denies this quite strongly. She then has a flash of inspiration, she asks if he likes, which steams him up enough to make him leave, suffering both teasing from Akane and War Rock.: In the anime, Subaru is. While she's not shown to be crying, you can hear her voice quavering and you can see her holding a handkerchief.: Oh, yes. Bursting out laughing when your son of is not the best way to earn Mommy Points, no. An associate and former of Kelvin's, Aaron may be the one man left on earth still trying to find his old friend.
The head of the space research institute, 'AMAKEN', Aaron proves to be one of Geo's greater allies during his adventures, even going so far as to get things started by presenting Geo with the Visualizer, which he found among Kelvin's old things. Cheerful and outgoing, he tries hard to make friends with people, going out of his way to make friends with one of his workers, the reclusive Tom Dubius.After the first game, Aaron becomes something of a specialist in, often working with Geo and WAXA as trouble arises.:, but he's happy to invite Tom to a round of drinks after a hard day's work.: In the anime and the first game, he and become good buddies. Tom is nowhere to be found in the second game, and when he does return in Ace and Joker, they're rarely seen speaking to or about one another.: A sign that Tom has grown better with people is that he's willing to tease Aaron about his eating habits.: Aaron the cheerful, perhaps rather stocky extrovert, and Tom, the reclusive, slinking introvert.: AMAKEN in the anime. Fares better overall than.: Provides support to Rockman and Harp Note during the second half of the first season, especially during the final arc. Mamoru will often show up (usually with ) in the midst of the action while Tom oversees from the main lab.: The AMA part of AMAKEN is actually short for Amachi in the original japanese. Basically put, Aaron runs a rocket design and space research center he named after himself.: Mamoru means 'defender'. Amachi means 'Heaven and Earth.'
And one meaning of Aaron is 'high mountain'.: While not quite a surrogate father to Geo, Aaron nonetheless provides welcome support. Besides Hope, he's the second voice encouraging Geo's return to school.: When Omega-Xis just won't do.: He tries restoring Strong and Luna, but it's not quite as easy as Geo hopes it is.: In the anime, he provides Geo with a substitute while he plans on fixing his broken Transer, when jumps in and seizes the opportunity to create what we will come to know as the. AMAKEN also develops Wave Rifles for the Satella Police.: Technically, Aaron is an actual rocket scientist, though he ends up being used as the for the of the Wave World and its inhabitants. His relationship with WAXA is. Unclear.: A kohai of Kelvin's, and a friend of the family. An agent working for Satella Police, he gets only minor appearances on all three games, but recieves a bigger role in the anime.: Copper comes very, very close to connecting Geo to the weird activities going on in town in the first game (not least because Geo's house is ).: Takes a baseball to the head in the games. Gets fried by fireworks and regularly messed with in the anime.: In the anime, he tends to make loud pronouncements of 'You're all under arrest!'
- in English. His Japanese equivalent is to fire off a series of 'Goyouda's, which mean pretty much the same thing.: He drops his chase of Rockman during the Final arc of the first anime and starts working with AMAKEN; this partnership continues throughout the Tribe anime.: He's loaded to the gills with stuff designed to work with Z-Waves, or the waves the FMs give off, which have been around for all of maybe two weeks - he outright frightens Omega-Xis when he pulls out his self-created Rejecter, which is tech that humans SHOULDN'T HAVE YET.: 'This light has called us to defeat this evil!'
Proclaimed in the face of the Andromeda.: In the anime Copper has some truly insane driving skills, being able balance his car at a forty-five degree angle on a railguard and still be able to drive forward. Omega-Xis was most impressed.: Generally finds himself involved in cases that deal with superhuman activities. He doesn't succeed, but he gets pretty darn close.: See.: This was the fan response to the release of.: Well, extraterrestrial detective, maybe.: Copper is actually quite competent, he's just utterly out of his league. Even in the anime, which gives him more screen time, MegaMan evades his clutches only through the virtue of his superhuman abilities. Again, Geo and Mega probably aren't helping things with their of the badge.: Copper generally remains one throughout the series; he would be more of one if Geo and Mega didn't keep making him suspicious.: Geo and Mega work hard to keep ahead of Copper. They manage to turn him into a when they try to slow his investigation, an effort which involves knocking him out with a, and cracking his computer to delete his entire report. Mega, who dragged Geo into it, apparently that explaining the situation to a potential ally was an all around better option than behaving like a criminal and ratcheting up the policeman's suspicion.: Is an instrumental distraction in the Tribe anime finale, without which the bad guys would've won.: An of.
One of Doctor Vega's henchmen in the second game. He wants to be a film director, always refering to his schemes as 'scripts', and tends to get a little carried away with them. He only serves Vega in the games, while in the anime he is a. His EM-partner is called Phantom, and they fuse together to form Dark Phantom.He appears again in the third game and attempts to steal Mega Man's Ace/Joker Program (depending in the version you're playing. He later battles Mega Man and is defeated, commiting suicide after realizing he'll never win. Went from being an unoriginal stooge in the games to being his own standout character in the anime.
Also gave us 'The OOPArts are NOPArts.' . Has some shades of this.: Kidnaps Luna twice in 2, and his presence and actions in 3 first threaten Geo's friends and then WAXA's main computer which is needed to restore Luna to physical form. In the anime, he takes over every viewscreen in town and demonstrates his captivity of Subaru's mother (who's really waiting to have her picture painted); he claims her safety depends on MegaMan returning the.
An early script in the 3rd game ends up inadvertently triggering the. While not actually involved in the production of any known films, he treats all scenarios that involve him as 'scripts'. And he expects the 'actors' to follow them to the letter.: With each failed script, his grasp of the world around him slips a little. His last failure in 3 sees him give way to a and fall over the edge of a cyber-world platform.
Geo and Omega expect he'll be back. Especially in the anime. /: In the anime, he possesses a fascination with the grotesque and the distorted—he's simply not content unless a piece of art has something. Off about it (His painting 'A Girl Playing with Her Dog' depicts the split second between the leaping of a rabid little dog and its teeth sinking into the eponymous girl's flesh). He is honestly convinced that he is world-class artist, but the fact that people are repulsed by his taste in art leads him to believe that he's one of the great artists whose work won't be appreciated until centuries after his death. And then he is visited by a who offers him immortality.
Notably creates an Anime-based milieu with the even further Gori Monjirou, even though they technically work against each other as much as they work with each other. Bonus points for the element.
The last alive member of the Murian race, Solo is one of Doctor Vega's henchmen a guy that works by himself. Being the, he hates the world and will slash down anyone who uses technology of his lost race for evil. He wants to bring back his lost civilization to its greatness, and works with Vega in the second game because they have the same goal and so 'would be more efficient'.He appears again the third game, in which he is fighting agaisnt Dealer because they are using Murican technology on their experiments.: A variation. Many of his travels require him to visit places of antiquity, and if he is ever known to recline anywhere, it will be in the presence of historic architecture.: First scene in Ace and Joker? An attempt on Jack Corvus' life.: Laplace can become the Laplace Blade whether or not Solo is running around as Rogue. Solo generally prefers to be in Wave Form, as it would naturally allow him to take greater advantages of the Laplace Blade's abilities.: The quintessential example for the series.: Originally.
Then he picked up a sword and fell in love.: You know, with the number of things that sets him off, perhaps its best just to not speak of at all.: Back in his first appearance.: he's a chip and enemy summon in.: Rogue's X-shaped mask allows him to see how his opponent concentrates his EM energy. How much this helps is debatable, since his attacks are designed to prevent those opponents from having the opportunity to strike at all.: Take a gander down at.: Uses Laplace to blow open a hole in the floor after Geo and Sonia discover the door to the hallway to the elevator is locked.:. Solo is determined to stick out his loner ways.: Sort of. More like a Heel-Neutral turn, but he's coming around.: The ending of the second game, in which Solo declares that Geo's body was in his way. Unless you want to go for full completion. Then you get the not-so. /: Much of his power requires this to work, and it becomes a matter of whenever Mega Man's around.
Solo is almost constantly haranguing Geo about his reliance on the bonds he gets from others. Geo calls him out on it in the postgame of Ace and Joker and accuses him of being loyal to the.: Mmmmaybe. If his business there is concluded, Rogue has been known to begrudgingly allow for hitch-hikers on his way out of the.: Ace wanted him for the.
Solo.: Solo is the last Murian human, and generally over-protective of their culture. Laplace is likely the last Murian EM Being.: Hahaha, no. MegaMan's and Rogue's postgame fights are always the most brutal, knockdown matches of the game.: The games never explore what he would do if he ever actually restored Mu or how he would do it at all; most of the time, he's dedicated to preventing its misuse.: Takes to a sword like a duck to water.: He worked alone before joining with Laplace.: Possibly.
One would think that the gate on the Outer Space Wave Road sealed by Rogue Z has some kind of powerful ability, right? Hahaha, you wish. He leaves a cat's meow sound effect for the RockBuster.: He's here explicitly to take revenge on those who abuse Murian technology.
That Geo happens to be there and that Solo's actions happen to benefit him is beside the point. If Geo approaches Solo where he's relaxing near Alohaha Castle, he'll try and recruit Solo to work together against Dealer, only to be. This steams Geo up so much he actually loses his ability to speak coherently for a moment and instead settles for an exasperated shout.: Knows less about them than he would like.: To Geo, and originally to Eos,.: Solo brings Geo along to make it easier for him to kill several giant Noise monsters, since the last time he encountered them, he nearly died. A quiet, cheerful and very mysterious student that Geo meets after Luna finally manages to get him back to school. While he and Geo almost immediately hit it off, we learn late in the first game that all is not well with Geo's new best friend. And, guess what, it's a two-fer: first, there's the matter of his murderous alter-ego, Rey, but that's nothing compared to learning that he is human host - and willingly at that. Gemini himself is Cepheus', and in fact has been since before the plot begins.In the anime, Pat is in a different class than Geo.
Here, Rey doesn't exist, so Gemini himself becomes Spark Black. Aaron's research assistant in the first game. A former co-worker formed a Brother Band with him for the sake of stealing his inventions; since then, he was unable to trust anyone. After he gets his job with Aaron, Cygnus appears, who inquires about his past, and then tricks him into thinking that Aaron had stolen his latest invention. This drives Tom to fuse with Cygnus and trap Aaron (as well as Geo and others) in a space simulator with the intent to kill him. After discovering that he can, in fact, trust Aaron, he defuses from Cygnus and returns to his job.He comes back in the third game working for WAZA, with Cygnus as his Wizard.
He can be fought as an optional boss.: In the sense that he finds people trying to befriend him dubious.: The Sensitive Guy to Aaron's Manly Man. Vega is a brillaint scientist that pioneered technology.
She is also the of the second game, with designs on the powers of the dormant Le Mu. The Matter Waves she's credited for were actually the commercial fallout from her attempts to resurrect Altair, her deceased lover. Altair's death also spawned a hatred of the sense of entitlement she found in otherwise worthless people, and so she vows to create a world in which only those she deems worthy may live.Doctor Orihime appears in the Tribe anime, where she recruits Rockman's help to find the OOPArts. Most of the episodes of Tribe involve her sending Rockman to various locations around the world to do some digging for information. While her role is undoubtedly expanded in the adaptation, she remains ultimately villainous, and has a direct hand in the last arc of the plot.: Averted.
She plans to use Le Mu's power for her own devices, true, but understands that the power remains Le Mu's.: In the second game.: Motivations aside, Mega finds her ultimate goals to be rather laughable. In the anime, where her motivations are never discussed, she comes off poorly for it.
'Well, maybe you shouldn't trust bad adults!' .: She disappears after the second game. This is mildly disconcerting, considering how the epilogue saw her intimate that there was going to be.: The anime runs itself out of juice before it gets a chance to explore her origins. So her reveal as the villain is sapped of most of its weight, though people who know her game story will be able to pick up on why she has that over Empty's death.: Oh, man.
She is not a happy lady.: Her lover, actually.: She seeks to establish herself as lord and master of the new world using Le Mu's power.: How many of you figured something was up when you saw the Butterfly Rings?.: In the anime, she normally uses the single ring in the back that was shown in her backstory. (An ethnic variation on, perhaps)?.: The cause of all her troubles. The war Altair never came back from was caused in large part due to a vain Prime Minister.: For a good part of the second game, her mugshot is a vaguely lit silhouette, as she is reclining behind some curtains.
She reveals herself to Hyde as a sign of honor and gratitude when he brings her the. Averted in the anime.: Her sprite doesn't particularly suggest anything Fanservice-worthy about her, but when we meet her in the anime,.: Halfway through the final episode of the anime. Magnificent in its brevity.
She's heavily implied to have gone through one in her back story, as well. She had little interest in villainous ways before Altair died.: She is responsible for the development of Matter Wave technology. In the anime, she is also famous for the development of a little machine called a Radio Composer, which was used by Cygnus Wing to complete his Denpa Henkan machine, though this was all back in season one.: Matter Wave technology was only accidental; her main goal was to try and resurrect Altair. Using technology she stole from around the world, at that.: The depth of her motivations aren't remotely apparent in either version of the story.: Between her and credentials, she's this. Her comes with an, too.: Possibly. She does research and conducts her role as at Kodama University.: Honestly believes she is making a better world.: Is when she steps out of her car at the beginning of the final arc. This carries through until the end of the series.: Vega's lover, Altair, was killed during a war.: Altair's death led her to vow to.: Orihime and Hiko(boshi) are the characters of the East Asian legend of.
Their English names, Vega and Altair, are derived from the names of the stars that figure in the myth.: Her role in the anime is to provide Geo with his mission for the current arc.: She doesn't wear the dress from her image until she begins to take direct action in reviving Le Mu. Otherwise she wears a relatively simple robelike garment.: In the anime, she has little to no interest in explaining why her assistant is wearing such heavy robes. Or moves as though he's gliding. Or is so damn tall.: Is decidedly of this opinion.: Her initial idea in the anime is to have Rockman gather the OOPArts for her. When they end up being gathered by Yeti Blizzard and Phantom Black, she waits until everyone is exhausted from fighting over them and then has Empty retrieve them for her. Vega's heavily robed. Found mostly either at her side or delivering her dispatches to Hyde and Solo.
Underneath the robe is the glowing image of Vega's war-slain lover, Altair (Hiko in Japan), whom she tried to recreate with the technology of Mu, pioneering technology along the way., but refuses to admit this to herself, repeatedly asking him if he remembers anything before finally recognizing him as unique. The leader of the organization Dealer. King's public persona is that of a kind millionaire that donates money to charity and is the owner of the King Foundation.: Is quite pleased to style his relationship with Queen Tia and Jack as familial. He's still a bastard to both of them.: The inevitable fallout.: In the third game.: King belongs to the first sphere and has many of the mannerisms.
Just about everything he does onscreen is negative, ranging from being vaguely unpleasant to downright vile. Doesn't diminish his presence as a character one notch.: In keeping with his Games motif: What does he need? How does he get it? By making it grow. How does that happen?
By infecting every Wizard he can get his hands on. What about the police?
They're too busy dealing with the thousands and thousands of out-of-control Wizards to stop him.: Averted, in comparison with his and his proteges' plans. He uses Meteor G as a instead.: Part hovercar, part desk, part card table, part computer, part laser turret.
It's such a Cool Chair he keeps it on him after he turns himself to an EM Being.: Bit of a bad habit, really.: A curious kind of chortle that, at its strongest, makes him have to hold onto his Chair for balance.: A side of him only seen in the functionality. He will encourage MegaMan to aspire to take advantage of Noise Cards and create hands at the highest levels he can. He may even muse over offering MegaMan a seat at Dealer's table.: Early concept art draws deliberate connections between him. The two are remarkably similar, down to the natures of their plots, though King's is a bit more fleshed out this time around.: Like Vega, his face is hidden in shadow for the first few chapters. It's much less dramatic when he emerges this time, however.: Has strange blue stylings down the sides of his face. No real reason is ever given for these.: The very first time in any Battle Network or Star Force game where the main villain IS the final boss. Given, it's a.: Ohhhhh, yes.
His basic is grounded in cards, and Dealer's hideout has all the trappings of a casino. Don't expect him, though.: A villainous variant. And he announces it by making a personal appearance in the main office of his enemies' stronghold.: With a running start. Several times. Jack's upset about his sister, who is in jail? No, there will not be a rescue. Joker at long last reveals his desire to live?.: After some early lines of dialogue about how Mr.
King is a major public philanthropist, the game makes absolutely no attempt to hide his private life from the audience.: King does not take kindly to anyone who slights him. The first act he takes after revealing he survived Heartless' betrayal is to try to kill her. Unfortunately for him, he gives into his unfortunate habit of giving a small speech, which grants Geo the opportunity to get over his shock and spring into action.: The final boss is the Crimson Dragon, a giant beast of Noise that is possessed by King.: Not a single member of Dealer was loyal to him.
Not even Joker, who was really out to fulfill his desire to act without limitation.: The one who came up with it all.: Not a case of. Forced himself to become an EM Being that could survive in Meteor G. This in no way bodes well for anyone.: You know how the guy funds orphanages?
He cultivates with them.: The masses think he's the best thing since sliced bread. He funds and runs everything from orphanages to shopping centers dedicated to children having a good time. King's personal assistant, with all the stylings of a secretary. She handles most of his personal affairs and has even been known to distribute his orders to the membership of Dealer.
King trusts her the most of all his subordinates, and has even been known to banter playfully with her. The woman who goes by 'Heartless' actually works for WAXA and is actively working to bring her old friend Kelvin Stelar back to Earth.: Mr. King's personal assistant. this with Joker later on.: Walks hand-in-hand with her.
Bonus points for occurring at the beginning of the final chapter. King has just disabled Jack's and Queen Tia's Wave Change, bringing a screeching halt to their plans of revenge. He demands Heartless dispose of them, only for her to turn her back on him then and there, spend a moment detailing precisely how utterly wrong he's been, and then she dumps him through a portal into the heart of Meteor G.: The fourth and final underling member of Dealer's. Also, the last suite of playing cards after Spade, Diamond, and Club. Sucks to be you, King.:.: Part of the same Dealer spiel.: A couple of things to point out.
One, she's named for the last remaining card suite. Secondly, the name suggests she's distinguished by certain characteristics she lacks. How fitting that King gave her the name.: And you know who shares that little bit?!. I was the only one that you thought would never turn on you, wasn't I? Joker was the last of your loyal subordinates. Actually, he was only your Wizard so he could fulfill his own Purpose. You have been surrounded by traitors from the very beginning.
There was Jack, Queen Tia, and of course, myself.' .King starts to react when she's turned away.
'Don't bother.' .Portal opens. 'Goodbye, Mr. You will pay for your sins in the bowels of your own Noise.' .King disappears, portal closes.: Retains a carefully guarded expression at all times. Doesn't even bother with being emotional when she dispatches King.: There are enough subtleties to her outfit to keep this from being a straight example, but the same principle applies.
Especially where most of the problems with the hair of the characters is the style (lookin' at you, Luna Platz). The Wizard that controls the environmental system at Alohaha Castle.
He gets mutated by a Noise card and transforms into Club Strong. He is the first victim of the Dread Lazer, but is later restored by Aaron Boreal, who tells Geo he was unable to find and re-integrate all of the original data, and that the current incarnation is a. Later, however, if Geo returns and continues to talk to Strong afterwards, that he is slowly getting better.: After Joker destroyed him, Aaron was capable of rebuilding him from the parts scarred in Alohaha, but he hasn't his old memories, because that part couldn't be recovered. He is heavily implied to be naturally restoring himself over time, if one looks closely.: While he was victimized by the Dread Lazer, the application of this trope is. While Strong was originally held to be deleted, Geo's refusal to accept Luna as having been killed (one that he backs up vehemently), plus the discussions almost immediately after, raise certain questions about the Dread Laser that keep this from becoming unambiguously the Death Scene That Wasn't. That said, however, the restoration process is shown to require a lot of work - see.: As the one that controls the Environment Center, he has the power to control the nature, but as Club Strong, we see the next powers from him:.: Before he gets upgraded (see above).
Acid AceA high ranking member of the Satella Police in the third game. Former member of Dealer.:. /: Joker causes Acid to go berserk towards the end of the third game by overloading the immediate area with. He gains enough self-control to pull off a, though.: He was part of Dealer, but ditched the group prior to the events of the game proper.: Ace sacrifices himself by evading the self-destructive power of Joker.: It's shown at the end of the game that he was recovering in a hospital, and Queen Tia and Dr. Goddall were with him.: He isn't capable of maintain a EM Wave Change by a long period of time, because Acid was an EM being made by humans, and making an EM Wave Change with Acid needs a great effort from him.: has not said, but there has been speculation that the 'C' stands for Christopher.: Acid is one for Omega-Xis, due to finishing off an evil wizard, and Eos was originally supposed to be a second rival to Solo-Rogue. /: Mega Snacks. The chief example of this occurs at the beginning of the third game, where he buys the school out and they fail to restock.
If you check her Transer, there's a comment about not letting 6th graders get in her way. The defeated character explodes into fragments of light. which is more backstory than anything. Part of his full combo involves a gratuitous backflip. Not that the opponent will be able to dodge that well after he landed the first blows. The Laplace Blade is designed to gore the opponent rather than just cleave them into pieces. One of Rogue's attacks with it is a large, direct slash that causes multiple lesser wounds.
