Mega Man 2 - Boss Battle

Background

Heat Man (ヒートマン Hītoman) is a combat Robot Master from Mega Man 2 created by Dr. Wily based on Fire Man's design. Heat Man is also designed to be highly resistant to sources of heat. His Special Weapon is the Atomic Fire, a heat-based weapon powered by highly compressed nuclear energy, which can be charged to produce bursts of fire at temperatures of up to 21,632 degrees Fahrenheit. He can also spit fire from his mouth and project enormous fire blasts from his hands. Heat Man's favorite attack is to first surround himself in flames for protection, making him invulnerable for a short time, before charging at his opponents at high speed from across the arena, causing major damage to his foes by crashing into them.

Attack Potency: At most Multi-Continent level (Potency) (Can harm Mega Man who was able to fight on par with beings such as Duo, whose fight with Evil Robot caused a cloud explosion on Jupiter which was at this level), Higher with Rage Power (When Robot Masters are damaged to about half their health, they become invulnerable for a few seconds and perform more powerful attacks)

Durability: At most Multi-Continent level (Can take hits from Mega Man)

Striking Strength: At most Multi-Continent Class (Potency), Higher with Rage Power

Lifting Strength: Class G (The Robot Masters are normally made to be on par or superior to Mega Man, who was able to hold up Dr. Wily's fortress at end of Mega Man 5, with Robot Masters such as Guts Man being superior in strength and Robot Masters such as Splash Woman having comparable feats such as lifting entire ships from the ocean)

Travel Speed: Massively Hypersonic (Is comparable to Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo, who can travel around the earth destroying evil energy around this timeframe), Faster Than Light with Teleporters (Robot Masters teleporters should scale to Mega Man and Proto Man’s teleportation, where they are able to travel planets and solar systems in a short time frame^[1], reaching this levels of speed)

Attack Speed: Massively Hypersonic (Can keep up with Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo in combat who uses attacks that involve his travel speed)

Reaction Speed: Massively Hypersonic Can keep up with Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo in combat who uses attacks that involve his travel speed

Stamina: Essentially Limitless as long as they are powered by solar energy (All Robot Masters bodies are powered by solar energy, effectively giving them limitless stamina and ammo^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5])

Range: Standard Melee, Hundreds of Meters with attacks, Interplanetary with Teleporters (All robot masters naturally display teleportation through teleporters interplanetary distances^[6])

Intelligence: Gifted Intelligence (Can keep up with Mega Man in combat)

Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Self-Sustenance (Respiratory Self-Sustenance, Nutritional Self-Sustenance, & Restful Self-Sustenance; All Robot Masters can breathe in space just fine, with an entire game revolving around traveling through space^[7] and as robots do not require food^[8], sleep or sustenance), Inorganic Physiology (Non-Living Objects; Robot Masters are highly developed robots in the fields of robotics. Robot Masters have a "consciousness" though it is different from the standard humans consciousness as it's at the level of a "cognitive circuit" embedded inside each one of them^[9]), Rage Power (When Robot Masters are damaged to about half their health, they become invulnerable for a few seconds and perform more powerful attacks), Limited Invulnerability & Forcefield Creation (When robots in Mega Man are hit, they have periods of invulnerability where they cannot take damage for a few seconds. This is shown to exist in verse as there are chips that amplify this ability such as Double Barrier and Extend), Absorption (Robot Masters^[10]^[11]^[12] are built in with^[13] usages of solar energy to charge their bodies and use their weapons essentially limitlessly^[14]), pseudo-Teleportation, Transformation, Light Manipulation, Intangibility (Phasing/Elemental), Transmutation (Transformative Arsenal) & Battlefield Removal (Application Based; All robot masters naturally display teleportation through teleporters interplanetary distances^[15], they do this through transforming into a beam of light, they can use this in the middle of combat to turn intangible and phase through attacks. They can also transform others into a beam of light and send them to other places with the teleporter, essentially removing them from the battlefield), Consciousness Transferal (Robot Masters can transfer their consciousness into other bodies and machines, with characters like Doc Robots having the Robot Masters programs and data directly installed with them, essentially acting as a more powerful body^[16]^[17]), Divine Protection (After defeating ViA■ and destroying the Robot Destroy Program within him, The Player was able to fully correct the Deep Log in its entirety. However, Via says The Player's story isnt over and RiCO repeats this and says that there will be future program errors in the Deep Log for them to correct and it would be insecure for her alone to manage it alone. Therefore to solve this problem that can happen in the future, RiCO will summon The Player in order to correct any irregular data in the Deep Log as she did in the start of the game), Supernatural Resilience (Robot Masters can survive wounds such as being cut in half, with ones such as Proto Man calling it merely "just a scratch", being able to come back just fine after teleporting away to be repaired), Immortality (Immortal Metaphysical Aspect; All robots "true existences" exist in their data, thus as long as their data is stored they can be remade or come back if their data is specifically "SAVED". With data further being explored through here), Regeneration (Mid through Cartoon Physics; Can regenerate from being crushed by Mad Grinder. Should scale to all the other Robot Masters who all regenerate after being flattened in Mega Man Powered Up. Mid-Godly as their Data Forms; In Rockman & Forte: Mirai Kara no Chōsensha, Rockman Shadow's data comes out of his deceased body and regenerates a new body at the very end post-credits of the game. In Mega Man Xtreme, Sigma was trying to reproduce the past data of several mavericks in the mother computer to bring havoc to the world's peace and the only way the past data of previously defeated Mavericks from X1 and X2 could be stopped is if X goes inside as his data form. Inside the Mother Computer, X defeats Vile's data form along with the data forms of a bunch of mavericks he has previously defeated. However, despite defeating their data form, their data is still are able to come back for the rematches at the end of the game along with Vile being back in the hard mode's post game story. Despite destroying Vile's data twice, he was still able to come back and better then ever in Mega Man X8. In Mega Man ZX, Omega's soul data along with flashes of the past battle in Zero 3 are trapped in area O and even after defeat, he can come back without limit even after obtaining Model OX which contains his soul data. With data further being explored through here), Resurrection (Robots that are fought and defeated are able to be brought back as long as they still have their data, with this also extending to reploids being able to come back for rematches. With data further being explored through here), Non-Standard Interaction (Conceptual Interaction & Abstract Interaction; Can directly interact with, harm, and destroy a robots data, which all robots "true existences" rely on their data, thus as long as their data is stored they can be remade or come back if their data is specifically "SAVED". All data resides in the deep log of each game's data and information of the Mega Man Franchise and many other Capcom franchises, with it being stated that data makes up the characters' personality, memories are data pieces that can be used to materialize hunter programs and also have the feelings of the characters, their data is even what determines their own canonicity in reality, with all characters being considered data alongside all universes being made of data. With data further being explored through here), limited Invulnerability & Forcefield Creation (When robots in Mega Man are hit, they have periods of invulnerability where they cannot take damage for a few seconds. This is shown to exist in verse as there are chips that amplify this ability such as Double Barrier and Extend).

Fire Manipulation (With Atomic Fire), Elemental Transformation (Transformative Arsneal; Can transform into a fire ball to ram into opponents).

Resistance to Time Stop (All Robots Masters in Mega Man 2 have built in devices making them immune to time stop, however Quick Man's has an error and hurts him instead)

Equipment

None Notable

Notable Techniques

Atomic Fire: Atomic Fire is the Special Weapon obtained after Heat Man's defeat. It uses a compression type blaster that generates explosive energy.

Other

Standard Tactics: Heat Man shoots out fire and transforms into a fire ball to ram into his opponents

Weaknesses: Bubble Lead and Ice Slasher. If his data is corrupted, he will be incapable of coming back.

Note: Robot Masters/Reploids should scale to their teleportation as they have to react to the landing in order to land properly or do certain things like Cut Man did here. Otherwise, they will clumsily fall like Roll does here due to her clumsiness as she was not naturally prepared for adventures like Mega Man, and surprised Dr. Light and Dr. Wily with her natural power as well as Pallette keeping her balance here.

Trivia

Heat Man's unused sprites from Mega Man: The Power Battle

In Mega Man: The Power Battle, unused sprites show animations of Heat Man lighting and smoking a cigarette, Heat Man having his lid shut on him, and him being frozen solid (by the Ice Slasher).^[20] Also, the music that plays when fighting Heat Man in this game is a remix of Gyro Man's theme.
- The unused sprites may have been the cause of a gimmick in community images and fanart, where Heat Man is usually depicted with a cigarette.

The maximum temperature Heat Man can reach, 12000 degrees Celsius, is higher than the Earth's core and the Sun's surface. Also, fire doesn't reach this temperature in reality, this heat being closer to plasma.

Graf Michael Sepperin, a character the doujin soft series, Rosenkreuzstilette, uses a similar attack pattern to Heat Man.

Heat Man's stage makes an appearance in the music video "Air Man ga Taosenai" ("Air Man Can't Be Defeated"). The player is unable to cross the blocks that disappear in his stage. It is mentioned that with Item-2 it would be easy, but the player can't beat Air Man to get it.

In Mega Man Official Complete Works, Keiji Inafune stated that Heat Man was his favorite Robot Master from Mega Man 2, because he's such a "gimmicky" character.^[21]

If Crash Bomber is used on Heat Man during his flame tackle state, the A.I. will shift back and forth in the spot of the explosion and repeat the tackle again while regaining health.

It is actually possible to deal damage to Heat Man using the Crash Bomber; however, it has to be used at the exact time Heat Man launches his fire. The damage dealt by the weapon is rather minimal.

Like with Air Man, a glitch to teleport Mega Man to a glitchy Dr. Wily Stage can be performed by using a particular weapon while doing a certain action. With Heat Man, Mega Man, if he has the Bubble Lead and jumps against the boss gate while getting hit by the Atomic Fire, will be sent to a glitched version of Wily Stage 1. However, the "stage" can't be cleared, since Mega Man did not beat Heat Man to get the needed Item-1, forcing the player to reset the game.

Preview screenshot of *Mega Man's Soccer* with Heat Man.

Heat Man was planned to appear in Mega Man's Soccer, but was removed from the game before its release.^[22]

Ironically, in the Archie Comic's Mega Man series in issue 10, Heat Man is extremely heat-intolerant and Mega Man finds him complaining about being hot (as he's stationed in a geothermal plant filled with molten lava), stating that he doesn't even want to move.
- However, when he re-appears in issue 14, he discovers the dial on his back (Which he explains is a heat regulator), and it is implied that it is directly connected to how heat-tolerant (or intolerant) he becomes.

Though Heat Man is based off the design of Fire Man, he may also share some similar tactics to another Light Number, Ice Man. They both have the same body structure and face design, their stage outline is much similar and their design both share a reference, with Ice Man based on a parka and Heat Man based on a Zippo lighter.

 '''Heat Man''' (ヒートマン ''Hītoman'') is a combat Robot Master from ''Mega Man 2'' created by Dr. Wily based on Fire Man's design.  Heat Man is also designed to be highly resistant to sources of heat. His Special Weapon is the Atomic Fire, a heat-based weapon powered by highly compressed nuclear energy, which can be charged to produce bursts of fire at temperatures of up to 21,632 degrees Fahrenheit. He can also spit fire from his mouth and project enormous fire blasts from his hands. Heat Man's favorite attack is to first surround himself in flames for protection, making him invulnerable for a short time, before charging at his opponents at high speed from across the arena, causing major damage to his foes by crashing into them.

+==Trivia==
+[[File:MMPBmys-Heat.gif|thumb|250px|Heat Man's unused sprites from Mega Man: The Power Battle]]
+*In ''[[Mega Man: The Power Battle]]'', unused sprites show animations of Heat Man lighting and smoking a cigarette, Heat Man having his lid shut on him, and him being frozen solid (by the Ice Slasher).<ref>[http://www.sprites-inc.co.uk/files/Classic/PowerB/Unused/ Unused sprites from Mega Man: The Power Battle in Sprites INC]</ref> Also, the music that plays when fighting Heat Man in this game is a remix of [[Gyro Man]]'s theme.
+**The unused sprites may have been the cause of a gimmick in community images and fanart, where Heat Man is usually depicted with a cigarette.
+*The maximum temperature Heat Man can reach, 12000 degrees Celsius, is higher than the Earth's core and the Sun's surface. Also, fire doesn't reach this temperature in reality, this heat being closer to plasma.
+*[[w:c:rks:Graf Michael Sepperin|Graf Michael Sepperin]], a character the doujin soft series, ''Rosenkreuzstilette'', uses a similar attack pattern to Heat Man.
+*Heat Man's stage makes an appearance in the music video "''[[w:c:megaman:Air Man ga Taosenai|Air Man ga Taosenai]]''" ("''Air Man Can't Be Defeated''"). The player is unable to cross the blocks that disappear in his stage. It is mentioned that with [[w:c:megaman:Transport items#Item-2|Item-2]] it would be easy, but the player can't beat Air Man to get it.
+*In ''[[w:c:megaman:R20 Rockman & Rockman X Official Complete Works|Mega Man Official Complete Works]]'', Keiji Inafune stated that Heat Man was his favorite Robot Master from ''Mega Man 2'', because he's such a "gimmicky" character.<ref>"In '2', I think Heat Man is my favorite. He is such a 'gimmicky' character. (laughs) He's like a Zippo flipping open. None of the other robots really had a gimmick like Heat Man." -Keiji Inafune<br />[[w:c:megaman:R20 Rockman & Rockman X Official Complete Works|Mega Man Official Complete Works]], [[wikipedia:UDON|UDON Entertainment Corp.]] 2009. pg.13 Retrieved on March 14, 2011.</ref>
+*If Crash Bomber is used on Heat Man during his flame tackle state, the A.I. will shift back and forth in the spot of the explosion and repeat the tackle again while regaining health.
+*It is actually possible to deal damage to Heat Man using the Crash Bomber; however, it has to be used at the exact time Heat Man launches his fire. The damage dealt by the weapon is rather minimal.
+*Like with Air Man, a glitch to teleport Mega Man to a glitchy Dr. Wily Stage can be performed by using a particular weapon while doing a certain action. With Heat Man, Mega Man, if he has the Bubble Lead and jumps against the boss gate while getting hit by the Atomic Fire, will be sent to a glitched version of Wily Stage 1. However, the "stage" can't be cleared, since Mega Man did not beat Heat Man to get the needed Item-1, forcing the player to reset the game.
+[[File:MMSHeatMan.png|thumb|Preview screenshot of ''Mega Man's Soccer'' with Heat Man.]]
+*Heat Man was planned to appear in ''[[Mega Man's Soccer]]'', but was removed from the game before its release.<ref>''"I'm pretty sure I saw Guts Man and Heat Man in some preview screenshots... I wonder where they went? I asked people about that when I joined the company, and I was told they planned to include them in the sequel!"'' - Ryuji Higurashi, ''[[w:c:megaman:R20 Rockman & Rockman X Official Complete Works|Mega Man Official Complete Works]]'' page 83.</ref>
+*Ironically, in the Archie Comic's'' Mega Man ''series in issue 10, Heat Man is extremely heat-intolerant and Mega Man finds him complaining about being hot (as he's stationed in a geothermal plant filled with molten lava), stating that he doesn't even want to move.
+** However, when he re-appears in issue 14, he discovers the dial on his back (Which he explains is a heat regulator), and it is implied that it is directly connected to how heat-tolerant (or intolerant) he becomes.
+*Though Heat Man is based off the design of Fire Man, he may also share some similar tactics to another Light Number, [[Ice Man]]. They both have the same body structure and face design, their stage outline is much similar and their design both share a reference, with Ice Man based on a parka and Heat Man based on a Zippo lighter.
