>>1672>Wanting to give revenge for somebody who joined in the eradication of human kind?Honestly a fascinating motivation, regardless of relationship status. Normally you tell family to fuck off after they do something demonstrably wrong. There is definitely a strong bond here, don't ship them but it's an interesting angle.
>Sorry for the unrelated image, fanart of those two is rareI only have one pic of them :(

>>1673What a cute image! (Beetle is drawn a bit wrong here, but a lot of people get him wrong when they portray him).
>Normally you tell family to fuck off after they do something demonstrably wrong. There is definitely a strong bond here, don't ship them but it's an interesting angle.Honestly I ship them, but this is the first time I've stated it because I'm worried people will think I'm weird for pairing such minor characters haha. Well atleast I don't have to worry about it here in fujochan.

>>1126>Nona have u heard the song Ring A Bell by Bonnie Pink? I think it fits ZeroX pretty well.Not the anon you've replied to, but after listening to the song I can see a resemblance to their relationship.
As we talk about music works that reminds us of Mega Man stuff have you heard the song " Pap Smear " by Crystal Castles? It really reminds me of the situation the Robot Masters are in -
" You never got to bloom
They cut you from the stem
You're innocent at birth
Untill you understand. "
…
" They put you to use
Or they put you to sleep "
Much from the text reminds me of them and how they're treated in their world - starting from the 3 Laws Of Robotics to the new laws about how long a Robot's life must be in MM9.
" Celestica " (again by Crystal Castles) makes me think more of MMX than MM.
No.1707
>>1672I'm glad you brought that up, I always liked both Gravity Beetle and Boomer Kuwanger and wondered what their relationship was like. Maybe I should read the manga one of these days.
Also, Volt Kraken and Launch Octopus had a somewhat similar relationship. Not brothers but close friends, and unlike Gravity Beetle Kraken didn't snap and just left the Hunters to pursue researching instead. He seems to understand that Octopus had to be terminated after joining Sigma, but despite his acceptance he's still deeply resentful towards X because his feelings for Octopus were that strong. He's always been one of my favorite Mavericks (and one of my favorite fights in the series)

>>1709It's in the X3 manga. Things can get a bit over the top at times, but it's not a bad read I suppose.

>>1707>Also, Volt Kraken and Launch Octopus had a somewhat similar relationship. Not brothers but close friendsYes, I also see them like that. It makes me very happy seeing such relationships in media, not lovers, not brothers, but very close friends with a good relationship.
>He seems to understand that Octopus had to be terminated after joining Sigma, but despite his acceptance he's still deeply resentful towards X because his feelings for Octopus were that strong.I've always seen him as the type who first follows his brain then his feelings.
>He's always been one of my favorite Mavericks (and one of my favorite fights in the series)You've played the games? I've played mostly the classic series (only 5, 8 and World 5), and played Mega Man & Bass. From the X series I could get only X3 and X6.
Tried Legends by pirating it on my computer but it was too hard for me haha.

>>1764I have also saved some art from the same artist. It's fun how in the start they were doing only innocent MM fanart and then started with the roboabuse all of a sudden. Love them for it.
>>1759That's the case with a lot of artists. I once found someone who made really good art of Tengu Man, Pirate Man and Burner Man, but they haven't posted anything in a long time.
Plus there is a very good korean artist who used to make drawings of Duo, but they stopped.
No.1781
>>1780Robot Masters. They're just so cute. But honestly I preffer the Mavericks over them but I wished they gave those more characterisation. In X2, X3 and X8 they're just kind of there to be killed off (
that doesn't make them any less cool though)
I also like the NetNavis but some of the designs really don't look appealing.
No.1783
>>1780Robot masters are pretty cute and the highlight of the classic series. With the X series i mostly like the MCs and some side characters like Gate.
Also I just found this thing and it's so cute

>>1786why not a little mix of both? i love when characters have these little layers of behaviour to them but not too volatile so they don't feel too inconsistent.
It's one of the reasons why i appreciate Zero so much despite many ppl claiming he's overrated. (and if he was i wouldn't care about that anyway)

>>1788>why not a little mix of both? i love when characters have these little layers of behaviour to them but not too volatile so they don't feel too inconsistent.I agree with you and I didn't elaborate enough in my post. Even though I lean towards him having more serious attitude that doesn't mean that I don't like him being upbeat and sunny. Like you said, everything needs balance.
It's just that many people make him way too goofy.
No.1810
>>1800honestly the presence of muscle is one of the few things I appreciate about the MMZ designs.
I realized recently that I really love armours with visible typography in them as if they were cars with sponsors, like Mythos Zero and the Truforce figures. It's such a silly little detail that i find adorable, makes me want to see art of the robot masters with similar details.

>>1871Nona thank you so much I've been searching for fanart of him for so long but it was impossible to find, he's one of my most favourite Reploids.
The style is cute, who's the artist??
No.1938
I was replaying the Zero games, finally beat them all and, oh dear, they're full with homo-tension. Especially Harpuia and Fighting Fefnir. So far my favourites are Zero 2 and 3, and not to mention that even the stage's bosses are shippable and pretty fun (mainly the beetle brothers Kuwagust and Herculious - they're so cute when they die by bumping into one another, and the Eight Gentle Judges have pretty cool designs and nobody can tell me they don't fuck each other). I wanted to post some images of some pretty homo texts and other things, but honestly I prefer to wait.
Nonas, no matter if you have played the games (Classic, X, Zero, BN, SF, it doesn't matter) or not, do you have rarepairs? I'll be very curious to hear them!
No.2013
It's time.
>>1938>rarepairsI like the idea of shipping bosses even though they have no apparent relationship (X Challenge made it easier) but I've never taken it too seriously. Would love to read some opinions though.
Oh right and there's Dynamo x Gate, I still don't fully get where that came from but I support it.
