Just reserved Sunday passes for me and my big brother.
Hopefully I'll run into some fellow RPMers.
Pretty positive that Trigger was created with the Master's DNA.
No. As Zan said, he simply carries the Master's DNA as assurance that those of the Elysium System will not attempt to destroy him.
The means by which he carries it is unclear, but I think it's a safe bet that Trigger has his own DNA. Remember, he was returned to his "original configuration" (baby's body) even after carrying the Master's "genetic sample".
I know I don't have any proof, but I always had this feeling that the Master was Zero and X in a human form.
I recall some japanese interview unearthed which confirmed that previous characters such as X were not the Master, but would not comment as to whether or not they were among the Elders. Unfortunately I don't remember the specifics, but I think it's something that Marshmallow Man dug up...
Maybe Zan remembers that better than I do...?
Another bothersome issues is when i found out that his name was Rock Volnutt, and not Megaman Volnutt kinda made me mad. Because when your told "Your real name is Mega Man Trigger, a purifier unit, like other Mega Man." [seen towards the end of ZX, that the term 'mega man' was starting to shape into a 'class' of sorts]
"Mega Man" does not denote a Purifier Unit. Mega Man Juno is not a Purifier, he is a Bureaucratic Unit.
The name thing really has to do with the fact that we in the U.S. only know "Rock" from MM4 and the Ruby Spears cartoon show, so it is not as recognizable and doesn't tie the character directly to the game title. Further, in the context of the U.S., it would also denote the Classic MegaMan specifically, as opposed to using a name already shared across multiple series for a new character.
"Rock" finding out his real name is "Rockman" is a pretty bizarre coincidence anyway, if you ask me. And as awkward as "Mega Man" may sound for a name, "Mega" simply does
not work, as the badly trained monkeys who localized MMPU found out.
Aren't her and Trigger technically around the same age? (excluding Triggers past life- I mean from the moment Barrel found him.) and if he was reset to a baby, then wouldn't Roll be around a baby/toddler age? depending on whgat age- she would be too young to be even playing videogames. If a bit older though, Her grandfather is going to let her name a baby after a video game character... yeah, I never really bought the whole "named after her favorite Video game character" thing...
Roughly, yes, but Roll is slightly older (less than a year; they're both 14 as of L1). "Rock Volnutt" was named as a pun on Roll's name.
And well...just because one doesn't play games doesn't mean one doesn't hear of them. Who knows, Barrel may have named him anything, and Roll's name just wound up sticking. He
did say that he tried to get her to change her mind.
It is "canon" as much as the name Mega Man itself is, being an in-game quote. Different name mandates a different origin. But at least both tie to Roll, so they were kept as similar as was practical.
DISCLAIMER: Im not being a negative prick BTW, Im just pointing out how silly that was in hind sight, and how much more sense it would make if it was kept "Rock Vollnut". Please don't eat me.
I taste bad. Honest.
Yes, Yoshi confirms that you taste like a sweat-bag.
ZXA was fine in its localization, Its just that It was the X7 voice cast, which just didnt work. I cannot un hear Grey's X voice.
Grey actually worked fine, I think (which is a testament to how much blame I place on X7's script as opposed to its actor). Aile is the one that gets me. Vent, bizarrely, sounds great in cutscene (that's as passable as "Megamerge" will ever sound...) but horrid in in-game dialogue.
his Purifier name looses its specialty when it is almost the same as his adoptive name. Its simply a change in last name
You're criss-crossing your naming customs. Neither "Mega Man" nor "Rockman" are believed to have any speciality among Elysium's Units, since the name is shared with Juno (hence we popularly assume that it refers to a class of some sort). Among Carbons, Volnutt is the family name, and Mega Man is the individual name. But it is Trigger, not Mega Man, which addresses him as an individual among the Elysium people. The group/family and individual names are ordered differently between the two cultures.
