Background
Yamato Man is a combat Robot Master from Mega Man 6 who was modeled after a samurai warrior. Although his armor appears to be heavy, it was made thin and as light as possible to improve his mobility, but at the cost of reducing his defense. Yamato Man's Special Weapon is the Yamato Spear, which he uses to throw armor-piercing spear heads at enemies. However, he has a short supply of ammo, and has to manually pick them up after use so he can throw them again. As a backup means of attack, Yamato Man is a skilled martial artist, and always carries a spear with him for both defensive and close combat purposes.

Mega Man 6
If not for his short stock of spear heads, Yamato Man would be a much more difficult enemy to defeat. He uses two different attacks: one on which he spins his spear and throws its main tip, then runs to retrieve it. The player has to jump over the spear head, then again when Yamato Man approximates to avoid being tackled by him. His other attack consists of jumping very high while spinning his spear and shooting a barrage of heads that spread out. This has to be avoided by moving through an opening between the spear heads. Caution must be taken when sliding to avoid them, especially if the player is trying to dodge the center head - the first or third one will land directly on them when they complete the slide. If he does the same attack twice, he will perform the other attack. Yamato Man is vulnerable at every moment of the fight. His weakness is Silver Tomahawk, and can hit him when he is jumping if aimed properly, but one must get close in order to hit him when he is on the ground as the weapon has an upward arc. He is defeated by seven hits of this weapon. He is also weak to the Rush Power Adaptor, although proper timing is required to use the Adaptor properly. The player must be careful to avoid any of Yamato Man's attacks (made all the more difficult by the fact they cannot slide with the Adaptor and its bounding box is larger than that of the regular Mega Man) as any hit will cancel the charged shot and the Adaptor's fully-charged shot has a very short range.

Striking Strength: At most Multi-Continent Class, 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 (Can move this fast compared to Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo, who can travel around the earth destroying evil energy around this timeframe), Speed of 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)

Powers and Abilities
Standard Equipment
- Yamato Spear: His spear that he uses as his main form of combat, it can shoot out energy projectiles from its tip, though it does not carry much ammo.
Notable Techniques
- Yamato Spear: Yamato Spear is Yamato Man's special weapon from Mega Man 6. It allows Yamato Man to fire small spearheads forward at a high speed. When tapping the "shoot" button, they are shot at two slightly different heights. The spearheads are able to pierce through the shields of Shield Attacker GTR and Knight Man.
Other
Standard Tactics: Yamato Man jumps around shooting out energy projectiles from his spear.
Weaknesses: Has a weakness to Tomahawk Man's silver tomahawk. If his data is corrupted, he will be incapable of coming back.
Trivia
- Yamato Man is heavily implied to be of Japanese origin.
- The word Yamato (大和) means "great sum", "great harmony", or "great peace" and is the name used for ancient Japan and the peoples of Japan as a whole.
- The Yamato is also one of the oldest hereditary monarchies still in existence.
- It is also the ancient name corresponding to the modern-day Nara prefecture.
- Yamato Man's quote from his CD data, "Nippon Banzai!", means "Long live Japan!" Nippon (日本) means Japan, and banzai (ばんざい) is an exclamation that literally means "ten thousand years" and is typically translated as "long live" in English.
- The word Yamato (大和) means "great sum", "great harmony", or "great peace" and is the name used for ancient Japan and the peoples of Japan as a whole.
- Yamato Man's appreciation of katanas (referred to as "Japanese sword" in his CD data) is a reference to the fact that samurai usually fought with katanas instead of spears.
- Yamato Man's head is based off the kabuto-style samurai helmets that often sport ornate crests (which were unique signatures to distinguish certain individuals/families/clans from each other).
- Yamato Man is purple in most of his artwork, while in his Mega Man 6 mugshot, he is blue, with most of his yellow highlights white. The only highlight that remains its original color is the crest on his kabuto. In addition, the green button on his chest is yellow on his in-game sprite.
- Yamato Man is the only boss in the game to have two weaknesses, the Silver Tomahawk and Rush Power Adaptor (he is semi-weak to the uncharged shot and the charged shot does as much damage as his weakness).
- In the first episode of Mega Man: Upon a Star, the giant samurai robot, Samurai Man, bears a striking resemblance to Yamato Man.

- ↑ PEACE HAS COME TO THE WORLD.
Dr. Wily has reformed, and he and Dr. Right have joined forces, working together to develop a giant peace-keeping robot named “GAMMA”.
“GAMMA”…… It was the life-long dream of Dr. Right, a giant robot to protect and serve world peace.
Their research almost complete, all that remained was to combine 8 energy elements that were scattered about the uncharted planets, and bestow them to “GAMMA”…
–However, each planet met with an unexpected incident. The robots who were mining the energy elements suddenly began going berserk!!

A. Well… Actually, Rockman’s body is powered by “Solar Energy.” Therefore, he doesn’t really eat, but there are some things that are okay for his consumption… Around the lab, he enjoys drinking “Energy Juice.” As responsibly as he behaves, he’s still a kid after all. - ↑ Q. The shots that the Rockbuster fires from the hand, what are those exactly?
A. The Rockbuster on the arm fires something called a “Solar Bullet”, essentially emitting a compressed form of solar energy that’s very powerful. - ↑ Weapon: Transforming Rockbuster, fires a solar bullet
- ↑ Q. Do robots like those made by Dr. Wily or Dr. Cossack have self-awareness, and can they talk? And do they run on solar energy like Rockman does?
A. I take it you’d like to know if Wily and Cossack’s robots possess “sentience”? Naturally, they each have a “consciousness”, although the level of every “cognitive circuit” embedded inside each one of them varies, producing as many different “personality” types as found in people… Just like you or I, they can speak, and have emotional responses like shyness, or anger, just as we do.
Regarding their energy systems, many of them do utilize “solar energy” in some way. - ↑ PEACE HAS COME TO THE WORLD.
