Oh right, Wily's still a wanted man.

>>142288909
Why not? I gave Mega Man 2 a shot at the rental place despite this boxart, and I thought it was kinda cool and novel that Adventures of Lololo 3 and Paperboy 2 both had female characters to play as. Not to mention Princess in SMB2 had one of the best abilities. Why not try out Mega Woman? If it has the same addictive gameplay, I could see myself loving it all the same.

>>142289197
Yep, it's very strongly implied in the X series that the Maverick virus carries his consciousness, and that he uploads himself in robot bodies like Serges and Isoc to make the war worse to spite on Light's legacy.

This entire comic in a nutshell. It really plays up how despite Classic being a relatively optimistic and happy setting... well we all know where this is ultimately going.

>>142289272
Archie Mega Man is already basically Megaman X. The robots are basically indistinguishable from humans and there is a lot of angst.

>>142289323
In Mega Man X2 and 6, Serges and Isoc make very overt hint at being Wily in the japanese version that got screwed up in the localizations. He even accidentally call X 'Rock' and directly refers to Light. And in X5, Sigma talks about having been informed of Zero's origins and rebuilt by him.

>>142289336
I kinda love Pharoh Man being passive aggressive

>>142289353
Visit your fucking family, Blues! Why are you such an angsty retard?! Literally the opposite of "I can fix Hitler" Light.

>>142289353

Thats alot of asterisks.

And I want a pet Snakeman snake.

>>142289323
Sigma's dialogue in X5 during his final boss phase, but the Japanese version of X2 also heavily alludes to Serges being a Wilybot in SOME way (he even knows who Dr. Light is, which literally nobody else in the X series besides Dr. Cain does)

Rock would make for a good patrolling guard in a game.

>>142289450
Well aren’t enough female Robot masters but sure Snake man could make do also with human woman

>>142289413
Yeah, and it kinda makes any sign of remaining morality we see here kinda depressing, since we'll know how much like Ra Moon he'll end up becoming.

>>142289377
>Visit your fucking family, Blues! Why are you such an angsty retard?!
It is genuinely frustrating that Blues refuses to just go home. He does this shit in the games too. Granted, that does get a bit complicated when 4 and 5 happen, but still. Go home, Blues.

Sometimes I wonder if Flynn knows just how homoerotic he writes these comics

Seeing the 3 RMs palling around like this always reminds me of the Ruby Spears cartoon where they all lived in Wily's Castle.

I love how this is, word for word, right out of the X 1 manual.

Also, behold Dr Cain, the man who fucked over the world.

>>142289246
>>142289386
The last time that Capcom published anything about the Maverick Virus was a really confused footnote in the timeline in the DS Zero collection that said the virus was made after Wily first turned Zero on and he turned him off because he acted recklessly, and devised a program to fix him, which evolved into the virus when it came into contact with X's Suffering Circuit, or flawed copies of it that were in Cain's reploids.

Doesn't definitely mean that Zero wasn't meant to be the immortal brain download receptacle of Wily. But it feels like it was made up to further absolve Zero personally of blame from the maverick crisis. Also it convinced me totally that Capcom doesn't even have an outline of an idea they were holding back on.

>>142289681
Is there any significance to this reploid as a character or is he just nameless and not much of a person?

>>142289649
>Also it convinced me totally that Capcom doesn't even have an outline of an idea they were holding back on.
That's basically the problem with the X series summed up - a lot of good ideas, but desperately needed better storytelling execution

This is why I personally subscribe to Cataclysm Theory. Literally HOW is there no one left to carry on the work unless Zero destroyed everyone? Poor bastard probably remembers doing it too, and having no ability to resist his programming. Yeesh.

>>142289730
That medic bot's a cutie, claimed!

>>142289719
Capcom scientists aren't too swift. Umbrella for example.

So like what was the point of making these Reploids? They have feelings and shit but they go make them do dangerous jobs probably. why?

If reploids are limitless... can they reproduce... like humans?

>>142289781
>>142289776
He just has a beard and mustache combo and a butcher knife. That does make for a good design though.

>>142289781
Huh? I thought Mega Man fighting all the MM3 robot masters a few issues ago was basically supposed to be covering Mega Man 3.

>>142289785
He shoots blanks?

Alternately, you go with the "each sequel series is just a possible future, not set in stone" theory.

>>142289764
The comic shows none of that. The only thing reminding the reader that they are robots is that they can't harm humans.

>>142289798
Asking the real question. There's no way robots have been a thing for so long and none of them made for that purpose. Shit, that's been a thing in real life now.

>>142289781
>zero: NO!
lmao, Zero's way cuter than Roll

>>142289798

Not until the ZX era. Maaaaybe late Zero, but thats hardly a concern at the moment.

>>142289807

Oh Anon, you have no idea...

>>142289781
Does X have his own Roll like character thats like his sister?

It's hilariously fucked up to make robots that are basically just humans but then forcing them to do really menial jobs that you could've just given to some basic run-of-the-mill robot NetNavis are basically just Reploids but done more sensibly

>>142289807
Nope, this is a set-up for justifying MM3's... oddest plot pints.
>>142289797
Because Light wanted to make a truly revolutionary form of androids, and Cain is a retard.

>>142289764
Suppose, seems like the reploids were going maverick every other week honestly and if they were anthro then pretty much guaranteed to turn evil or be executed by hunters. Say what you want about the Robot Masters but they never went as off the handle as fight psycho’s like Magma Dragoon or Vile

>>142289649
The footnote also implied that the Maverick Virus was an off-shoot of Roboenza, itself a synthesis of the Evil Energy.

>>142289838
He's got Axl, but he's more of a mentee

>>142289846
You know with this Reploid talk and with all the betrayals(Omega, EVE, Crocbot, Shard, A.D.A.M) did Ivo make Reploids by mistake?

Why do people hate Cain

>>142289905
Today's word is fear. Everyone has it. Even you.

>>142289903

Because by mass producing Reploids without knowing how they really tick he set off a series of events that nearly wipes out humanity.

And he's a BOTANIST.

>>142289905
Robots getting PTSD?

>>142289768
Damn it, I'm mad we never got an X book. Because holy shit, how do they write Repliforce to not look like retards?

Crazy to think that eggman causually shits all over Light with making robots who can feel and act human if he really wanted to or sometimes by accident.

>>142289923
Blues is trying to be mysterious and Tempo doesn't really get it.

>>142289871
I mean, yeah, you can only be truly evil if you have the free will to choose being an asshole.

>>142289903
Cause he created ligma

>>142289785
It doesn't mean everyone was dead. It just means Dr Light is a shut-in or gained heaps of trust issues as the Classic series went on. His life-long friend Albert Wily betrayed him over and over again.
His Soviet counterpart Cossack showed his ethics in robotics was a secondary concern to his daughter.
The government instituted laws to basically fuck over the field of robotics to undercut Wily, in a way that obviously would only help him.
The general population was willing to take the word of Wily -globally recognized criminal- over his.
He couldn't entrust the process to the Robot Masters, because of how fallible they were and the concept was probably beyond them.

>>142289944
>That robot... is no more
Oh my god you giant fucking dork

>>142289944
Blues just randomly pops in and starts angrily asking questions. Like, go home dude.

>He discovers X
>more of less copies his prints to make reploids and makes them en mass
>this will lead to the deaths of countless humans

There's Alia, but she's a sort of love interest. She acts as mission control.

>>142289973
Real fatherless behavior right here

>>142289943
Yeah but since his coding is shit they betray his dumbass.

>>142289973
Younger Tempo... used to be so full of life.
>>142289943
On the flip side, Wily doesn't have as many betray him. His robots are... usually... very loyal.

>>142289943
Hell, even Wily arguably shits on Light on that angle - dude made a robot that was fully designed to kill Mega Man (even straight up part of a line called "Mega Man Killers") but he has the agency to turn a new leaf and sacrifice himself so Mega Man could live to fight another day (yet another example of how the line between Robot Masters and Reploids is honestly much blurrier than it should be)

>>142289944
>>142289973
Oh no. I ship them now!

>>142290003

She was so cute.

>>142289973
Jesus, seeing this issue right after an MMX issue feels even more jarring. Light telling Rock he's experiencing fear, a human emotion, and Blues asking Tempo why she doesn't create an identity for herself. These are all things that seem like they should be reploid things to deal with.

>>142290003
>stop turning this on me REEEEEEE

Blues!

>>142289973
Proto man's "Proto" must be short for "projection"

>>142289925
But with the countdown to releasing Zero going on, what did making reploids change? The virus would've just infected a bunch of standard robots who, if they are like Mega Man are already strong enough to carry a castle, and had their own wonky applicable to battle abilities.

If anything he actually saved the world from ending by releasing X.

>>142290024
>ra moon: bitch

>>142290004
Also, keep in mind that Zero's purpose was to be an ultimate killing machine, not to have a human mind. He's technically the last Robot Master instead of a Reploid, and yet his personaly is just as, if not more, developed as them.

>>142290024
Go home Daddy Issues Man

>>142290024
This stuff reminds of shit like if you're a different person every time you wake up thing people say or about getting new cells replaced

>>142289730
The contrast between the Reploids and Robot Masters is interesting.
Robot Masters are technically just property, yet were largely treated with respect, especially by their creators who personally hand-crafted them.
Reploids have complete free will and are the equals of humans, and they're rolled off assembly lines and put to work like consumer goods. Most don't even get the luxury of a unique appearance.

>>142290038
Based Pedro!
>>142290005
Welcome to the club!

>>142290037
If he never made Sigma, Zero would have never infected him and made the Sigma Virus, for one.

>>142290058
S

>>142290058
Seething!

>>142289939
It's still absurd that X4 has a plot at all. Like, literally all they wanted to do was go live on the moon or whatever. W-why didn't they just leave? There's literally no reason for all the terrorist attacks or the orbital laser. Just fucking leave!

>>142290021
I guess the big distinction is that Reploids are recognized as "people" despite the fact they could easily be "reprogrammed" they just kill them when they fuck up. Meanwhile the classic era here is more about, I dunno working within the limitations of having no real free will or something.

>>142290058
If light wasnt there to constantly comfort rock, he would go crazy at this point

>>142290097

>>142290024

>>142290097

>>142290120
MAKE OUT!

>>142290056
>>142290021
This doesn't jostle me in the slightest. But I've read Asimov, where the difference between a Robot and an Android is... pretty much the Classic robot vs X Reploid divide. But then not every robot is a rote if-then drone that reacts to all stimuli the same. The entire point of the Three Laws from a development/writing viewpoint was to show how any number of different reasoning minds could see the same thing differently.

This is one of the reason I was a fan of the English ending of MM7. Because a robot deciding it isn't a robot, actually is one of the published, explored ways to circumvent the Three Laws.

Though for the sake of avoiding confusion androids are still bound by the 3 laws, but they are clearly operating on far more of a a human analog level when it comes to reasoning. The very first android Asimov wrote about: R-Daneel was a detective.

In Tempo's case, it's not at all a Reploid problem. A Reploid can't have their personality shut off and reboot like that. No more than a human can.

These threads would know a thing or to about buzzword spewing eh

>>142290063
But the Zero Virus was far, far worse than the Sigma Virus. It did all the same things as the Mavrerick Virus did in creating Mavericks, it tore reality apart, somehow infected humans, and gave Zero the machine an infinitely growing energy source and a drive to destroy without reason. Sigma had to reverse engineer the Zero Virus proving it had been extinguished by Sigma in his first encounter with Sigma.

Again it turned out to be a phenomenal stroke of luck that had happened before it spread into the wider world. But the name of the Cain game is blaming him for the unintended consequences of his actions, so I'll give him the praise too.

>>142290257
Hey, look at that, Reploids already know how to protests!
>>142290285
I'm sure this organized army of Reploids is going to make everything more secure! Also, jeesh, Sigma always looked pretty scary.

That was also a problem with the crossover. Sonic and friends logically should wipe the floor with Mega Man’s cast. Smashing robots is nothing to them. They regularly take on Gods. The Sonic cast had to be nerfed so they could appear as equals.

>>142290285
I guess now's a good time to ask.
Who is the hottest Maverick?

>>142290326
Why the fuck not?

>>142290292
I don't know why there'd be a bunch of shock and surprise from people. Reploids are supposed to be as close to human as possible in terms of thinking.

>>142290328
I guess with Sigma it’s that he just won’t die which probably solves the issue of why they don’t just kill him and shuts up those hero’s should all be murderer nuts

>>142290285
You gotta love how Wily was so ahead of the curve that Zero completely kicked the shit out of Sigma despite the latter being made a century later

>>142290326
>I'd presume there'd be regulations, you can't simply get yourself an harem of fully sentient sexbots.
Yet again I curse the tyrannical hand of the government

>>142290375
>>142290358
Probably not an important character. I already forgot who he is.

>>142290328
Sigma, because they actually try to kill him and he wont' stay dead

>>142290321
I mean you're right but badniks are still deadly

>>142290385
Honestly, after a point, he's clearly less of a character and more of a convenient face worn by the virus itself.

Double blasting that Ra Mussy!

Imagine if the main mega man cast were transported in the X future. what would they think about it

>>142290321
I dunno about that. I think the Robot Masters are far more advanced and dangerous than anything we've seen from Eggman in the games. The only thing that comes close is Metal Sonic from Sonic 2 and 3, and that's just 1 VS 8+.

>>142290328
Sigma, because dudes like Gate demonstrated that there's a lot of stories that could be told with other villains and Sigma could've been killed for good after X3

This might be a bit sacrilegious but does anyone else find Zero a bit overhyped and overused at times? Like it feels like Inafune wished X wasn’t there and it was all about Zero considering the next Entry

>>142290413
Now let's see how "trustworthy" Wily really is!

>>142290358
B-but I claimed him as my husbando!

>>142290257
June and Hayato! Star Gladiator was the shit.

>>142290397
I mean I like Sigma as a villain, but yeah after a point him and the virus fused to such an extent whoever he once was stopped existing

>>142290386
X & Zero were so ahead of the curve it's not even funny. They both died under extreme circumstances and in X's case, he was incapacitated.

>>142290438
Blues, your brother is dying.

>>142290436
Didn't Inafune want Zero to stay dead after MMX?

>>142290417
Donno. We know jack shit about the day to day life there. Just that every 8-20 months 8 reploids start shit. So... the same as in 20xx?

>>142290285
It's bubble shoulder-era Zero.

>>142290461
>cut man making no puns
We sure Wily didn't reprogram them?

>>142290462

No, he wanted Zero to be the star. But someone (either Capcom or Inafune himself) decided he was too different from Rock, so Inafune made X and reduced Zero to sidekick status.

>>142290436
Zero was his original design for X so his favoritism makes sense

>>142290328
This man >>142290429 beat me to it while I was looking for the accompanying image.

Sigma, as the antagonist of the supposedly darker and more serious/mature series is at times less interesting and complex than Wily. This is bad for the franchise as a whole. Even though they have written the excuse for why he comes back into the franchise's DNA.

>>142290525
I can sympathize with having your crazy uncle live with you for a while.

Fun fact: Ace Attorney is set in the same universe as Dino Crisis.

Wily is so great, dude is such a cowardly, lying, scheming shithead. Such a fun cad and all around miscreant

>>142290545

Wily is right, pick a side already.

>>142290496

>>142290619
Light's actually right. If Wily does reform then it ends the cycle but if he never gives Wily a chance then it would only keep it going. So obviously Light should kill Wily right now.

>>142290715
I'm still not sold on the double head design.

>>142290426
He built an army of Shadow androids more powerful than any robot master and they are treated as cannon fodder. They also handle Gerald’s Artificial Chaos easily and Gerald dabs on Ivo and Albert’s intelligence.

Okay the history of Zero's "design intention" is a mess that has been telephone to hell and back for decades.
Let me tell you what the most direct interviews on the matter say is the case.

-Inafune while developing X1 wanted to use his design for Zero as the MC for Mega Man X. HOWEVER he wasn't rejected, Inafune was a scarred he'd lose face just by submitting a design that COULD be rejected. So he instead designed what we'd identify as a time-skip verison of Mega Man for X and submitted him, but also submitted Zero to be used as a supporting character.

Then Inafune basically started working on X2 with the concept that it would be a game about rescuing a rebuilt Zero from a new group of enemies. This

X3 was outsourced and Inafune had no direct involvement in its development. Which is the first game Zero was playable in and he was broken as fuck compared to X.

Inafune did lead the charge to make Zero the focus of X4 and X5. However he intended Zero to "Stay dead" in as far as he was cultivating to get a Zero spinoff made, where Zero is repaired 100 years in the future after being destroyed in X5. He was unaware of the development of X6 which brought Zero back into the X series. However claimed he never felt like it was a major faux pax since they baked in a huge buffer time that Zero can just have his heroic last stand before getting back up at another time in the next XX years.

All of this is according to Inafune himself.

>>142290692
lmao at the skull watch
>>142290693
Astro Boy looks so cool here!

>>142290721
The best artists are always the lolicons arent they? sigh

>>142290737
Oh no, it's those dastardly Wily boys!

>>142290715
>given a chance to be actually happy and peaceful
>throw it all away and doom the world for jealousy and petty resentment
He really is a sad little man.

>>142290756
Boys! Listen to Wily! Can't you see he's trying to go straight and you're breaking his heart?

>>142290642
See, this shit right here? We can see where Rock gets it from. Thomas is basically just Santa Claus who builds robots. Like, the framing here. Incredible.

>>142290715
It really saddens me how petty he is despite having the chance to turn around

>>142290771
I can't believe Hard Man fisted Rush in public like that.

>>142290693
>>142290652
They need to do a Mega Man crossover with Bandai in the vein of Super Robot Wars. Where Mega Man just fights robots from other IPs.

>>142290715
This single page really encapsulates Wily as a character and the cycle why he just can’t redeem himself even if he wanted to

>>142290797
Soon!

>>142290721
>thicc
I have never known anyone to say the Popeye style was a turnon.

>>142290756
Snake man in constant rape face mode huh

>>142290797
POOR ALBERT W. WILY

Eggman wouldnt have even thought about redeeming himself. He's evil and knows it and saves the world at times soley so he can conquer it

>>142290824
It's X! And he's gon' give it to ya! Once again, RIP DMX.

>>142290721
And that's why twink connoisseur Toru Nakayama is the superior character designer!

>>142290797
Oh Wily what a shit, he is a different flavour of evil scientist villain to Eggman but just as fun

>>142290756
>Not having on Top Man on Item 1
MM3/10

>>142290321
Eh, but some of the Robot Masters are tailored made to take him down. Especially if they get the jump on him. Flash Man, Gravity Man, Quick Man & Tengu Man would be the perfect combination.

>>142290844
>buff wily
>restrained by metal tentacles
Uh huh...

>>142290692
Again, Ian Flynn, sassy robot girls. Nicole and Roll would get along famously.

>This is what I want, isn't?
Dude. Albert. You can literally just stop. You got away clean. Just stop. Please.

>>142290664
They’ve had multiple. Nobody cared about any of them.

>>142290848
shotacon vs lolicon!

He's an evil and petty ham.

>Albert Chad Wily

>>142290867
TP gonna bust a nut

>>142290888
Now for the after credits pages. Here's the standard pleb one for the unwashed masses.

>>142290867
Sean's stuff goes so hard.

>>142290771
They're such cute delinquents!

>>142290844
Wait, there defaintly was a winner to that contest but I've never seen anyone share a photo with that statue

>>142290905
And here's the variant page. Blues still being a bitch boy.

Wily a shit but you think Light should have credited him a bit more

>>142290862
Bubble Man solos the whole Sonic crew.

>>142290905
>last panel
Are you fucking kidding?

>>142290915
And since the X stuff we already posted was part of the FCBD issue, I'll post the handful of other pages from it.

>>142290765
Who's more sad, Snivley or Wily?

>>142290905
Poor Rock

>>142290905
Rockbros...

>>142290935

I know right? What a blatant false tease.

>>142290797
>I can't believe Hard Man fisted Rush in public like that.
wew!
>>142290867
>buff wily
hawt!
>>142290885
Boo! They're too tall and too shapely to be anything but twinks!

>>142290905
Slightly unrelated, why does everyone think Zero killed all the classic robot characters and not that they were just decommissioned?

>>142288948
It's human Sally!

>>142290941
There's really nothing more to this. Just info and ads.

>>142290959

Its a popular theory, mixed with Bob and George using it.

Despite Inafune himself shooting it down.

I can see why Ian wanted to do X stuff. You can do a lore more serious stories

>>142290964
We've come a long way.

>>142290902
It's true!
>>142290941
Remember to read it upside down!

>>142290981
And look, his continuity wasn't lobotomized and frantically changed!

>>142290944
I'd say Snively, because Wily at least managed to accomplish his goal, as insane as they became, and ironically enough his final legacy got to be the hero his younger self wanted to make. Snively literaly got nothing to show for his treachery besides broken relationship.

>>142290941
Man it feels like we were so close, SO CLOSE to having an X book but I feel like Worlds Unite killed it.

>>142291002
And that's it! Tomorrow at 7pm we go back to Sonic's World and go to Sonic's favorite place... underwater!

>>142290619
>Dr Light: I don’t want to make weapons for the army! I want to make nonviolent machines to help mankind!
>Also Dr Light:

>>142291017

Well, it killed Archie's licensed comic side altogether, so yeah.

>>142291019
Thanks Konductor!

>>142291019
Thanks conductor!

>>142290798
One idea I had in a SRW thread on /m/ was Astro Boy & Mega Man storylines mesh
>Astro Boy would have 2003 & Omega Factor
>Mega Man would have Power Fighters, MMV Game Boy & Gigamix
>Thomas, Wily, Ochan & Tenma went to the same school.
>Tenma & Albert cannot stand each other
>World Strongest Robots vs. Stardroids
>Bass shit talks Atlas & Pluto
>Sunstar is their big bad with Death Mask

How would FemTails fare compared to Sally and Amy?

>>142291019
Thanks Conductor Man!

>>142291019
>we go back to Mobius and go to Sonic's favorite place... underwater!
Yes! I always look forward to Waves of Change. Love me some aquatic adventures with fish waifus.

Roll-chan!

>Between Archie and Maverick Hunter X, we lost TWO opportunities to see an X series with unfucked storytelling
Sad

Roll would hate B*co if she actually met him.

>>142290959
Because
-In the Super Fighting Robot series they expect everything of importance to occur with Super Robot Fighting.
-Your outline of just turning off everyone and scrapping them i is tantamount to Dr Light choosing to murder his children.
-Dr Wily reveals his designs for Zero to Bass and taunts Bass with the prospect of replacing him with Zero
-The backstory to the X series shows Dr Light's lab is lost and buried, so that a paleontologist has to find it.
-There is a licensed game Rockman & Forte 2 Challenger from the Future where the world is destroyed in the future of the Classic series... but a different robot does it.

>>142291093

Most people would, yes.

I mean, I do.

>>142290453
>One year has passed since the battle with the Fourth Empire. A new level of
peace and harmony has spread throughout the world. However, that battle was only a prelude. Now...The war begins.

Capcom loves to reference itself in various works. And yeah Star Gladiator was cool.

>>142291078
I really wanted to see how they were going to continue the Maverick Hunter X series, especially with the plot twist of killing off Cain.

>>142291119
More trivia: this started life as a licensed Star Wars game, but Lucasarts decided to make one themselves.

Ya know, Masters of Tera Kasi? Remember that?

>>142291141
That would explain why that poster immediately made me think of Star Wars.

>>142291068
RIP Pitroll

>>142291120

Its not like he did much after 2.

>>142291141
>In another universe, Capcom makes a good Star Wars fighting game
>Han Solo is BUSTED.
Holy Shit, that's hilarious.

>>142291159
He made Signas. Pointedly the last reploid Cain ever made, and winds up leading the most effective version of the Maverick Hunters.

>>142289846
>NetNavis are basically just Reploids but done more sensibly
Indeed!

>>142291017
>Worlds Unite
Can't wait till Virtua On teams up Tech Romancer!!

>>142291198

Really? Huh. I thought his last contribution was that blurb in X4's manual where he basically says "These Repliforce guys suck".

>>142291211
I'm sad Colonel.EXE never got an evil duplicate named Shell.

>>142291141
Heh. Also maybe it's me but did the composer of SG2/Plasma Sword work on Vampire Savior? Because it has that distinct sound/feel.

Master Mogul

all Sonic girls should go pantsless

>>142291293

Yes he did. Tetsuya Shibata.

FORGIVE WILY

>>142291351
Never, when I was 8 years old I wrote to him to make a Chocolate Man. A robot that makes chocolate and he never wrote back or made Chocolate Man.

>>142291324
Thanks. I thought so because alot of Capcom's output from 1994-2001 shared various composers and there's this similar sound. But they're all different enough and fucking amazing. They did some magic with that CPS2.

>>142291316
Based

>>142291118
You'd be spared a lot of vitriol if you'd stop tripfagging. You'd get a lot more positive responses too

>>142291441
That and the blatant shitposting for attention.

>>142291426
May as well post the boxing version.

>>142291301
Lanolin

thoughts on this ship?

>>142291183
I'm surprised that one Funger character the fandom lusts over isn't there as a twink.
The lack of evil wizards is also somewhat worrying.

>>142291498
>No SNES Super Punch-Out clone staring Sonic.

>>142291516
They have one interaction and they get along well as friends, but this goes the same for Sonic, and Sonic's other friends with Blaze.
I don't get the feeling Evan likes this as much as Scourge, but it's okay I guess.
For people that like neither Scourge of Sonamy, it's probably fine, but as I prefer Scourge I'm obliviously biased against it.
That is to say, I'm on the negative side of neutral regarding this paring.

>>142289323
X5 basically just straight up says it, there’s even the black devil that turns into a Wily machine and has his logo in the background.

>>142291200
>TFW we'll never see these three & Marxio Bros. engage in corporate warfare.

>>142291183

What upstanding business owners!
>>142291456
That too. Still, he'd at least get positive responses on his non-shitposts
>>142291478
So sweaty!
>>142291498
So many hotties!

>>142291665
This EVIL sheep demands her teammates, BEG and LICK HER BOOT HEEL, she is a CRIMINAL, a LIAR, a SECRET TRAITOR, and MIMIC's BITCH.

>>142289477
Iirc Blues is basically the only robot master that’s got like Reploids level free will, he doesn’t want to get fixed because he doesn’t want that taken from him

>>142289649
Dive pretty much explained what the Maverick virus was at the end of the game. Basically Zero had something installed called the robot destroy program and it got fucked up by evil energy or something and evolved into the Maverick virus, or something close to that.

>>142289520
Sucks when you remember that his starting point was “Any robot can be a hero”.

>>142289642
I feel like Zero is unironically above anything Eggman ever built.

>>142291800
Really?

>>142291700
Nope. Blues was and is Three Laws safe. In their only ingame interaction Dr Light takes care to not order him in a way he must obey, but offers him help that he refuses. Dr Light respects his son's capacity to make his own choices, even though he disagrees with them.

The whole thing between the robots acting human in classic is weird. Like they keep saying they're really now all that but write them like humans

>>142291811
A war machine that used the as-designed Zero as its power supply killed 99.9997% of the world. It was weaker than Zero, and its main funciton was to harness the energy it put out to power a derivative of the Virus to take control of every reploid in a nonspecific army-sized radius while giving control of it to another mad scientist.

>>142291860
WHAT?!?!

>>142291852
Mega Man Zero's backstory: Omega.

>>142291730
It's funny, I never played XDive but from the stuff I've watched, my favorite thing about it is how they recontextualized Omega into being a Metal Sonic-esque schizo in personality

>>142291313
Sally? A shit, my man.

>>142291910
Omega shows that Weil is a hack compared to Wily.

>>142291860
Sounds more like an issue with lack of effective resistance.

>>142291963
Hey I can't deny that everyone needs to spend every minute fellating Wily and Light for somehow being the founding fathers of robotics but also being the unalloyed best for unspecified centuries to come.

Still Weil's production worked as designed, and it's not like Wily ever turned down stolen resources, research, tech, or robots when he was amok.

>>142292004
I think inventing the Crane Kick of Warcrimes is a complement. After he ultimately lost he hacked his reploid judges at his trial so he got away with the crime scott by being "banished".

>>142292100
>Crane Kick of Warcrimes
No idea what this means.
Are you calling his plan impractical?

>>142291019
Thanks, Conductor!

>>142292126
I'm referencing the Karate Kid. Which, yes, makes the absurd claim that the crane stance, leading to a jump kick is a martial arts combo that is unattackable, and unblockable.

My beloved!

Giving Hard Man some soft love, too!

The TRUE Oil Man Archie does not want you to see!

Guts Man with the coolest line in Mega Man history
https://youtu.be/V1ltyedo454?si=2skEpjkbkYgGTsjV&t=365

I've been playing through Megaman ZX Advent recently and I've come to the realization that Surge and Kit are the Sonic equivalents of Prometheus and Pandora

>Two wayward youths abducted by a mad scientist and turned into weapons
>Play as pawns to said doctor in his scheme to bring about a new world order due to being sick of the world as it is
>Are put on tight leashes via both maintenance and mind control
>due to the resentment they feel towards the doctor they seek to destroy him given the chance and take their rage out on the world
>one quiet one one super bombastic one

>>142292049
Huh. Anon, you described in a way that was very fitting. Wily stole, made it "his" and Weil took his best and made it "his".

WITH MY FINAL WORDS I SWEAR AT WILY! I TRUSTED YOU AND YOU BETRAYED ME SEVERAL TIMES!
