BubbleMan.EXE (anime)

BubbleMan.EXE is character from the MegaMan NT Warrior anime, series, debuting in Axess. He is a Darkloid under ShadeMan.EXE, though he is incompetent and weak, and his plans often fail. Despite his allegiances and attempts to be evil, BubbleMan only yearns to be cared about by others and makes friends with IceMan.EXE and SpoutMan.EXE.

MegaMan NT Warrior Axess
BubbleMan is a Darkloid under the command of ShadeMan.EXE and fights for Nebula. He once went on a mission to destroy a water works factory to flood the city under the orders of Nebula and is attacked by Lan and MegaMan using Cross Fusion. However, they argue so much the Cross Fusion breaks. Lan tries to attack BubbleMan, but fails. However, MegaMan and Lan get their act together and manage to use Cross Fusion and defeat him.

He also reappears when Lan and MegaMan got to Yoka. BubbleMan tries to ambush him, but MegaMan and MetalMan drive him off. He also befriends SpoutMan and IceMan on a hot day after the other Darkloids bully him. They make water and ice structures in the Net and play until MegaMan, Roll, and NumberMan arrive. BubbleMan tricks the others into ambushing them by saying it was a game. The plan almost succeeds until Shuko and Tory order SpoutMan and IceMan to Jack Out. BubbleMan returns to the Darkloids in failure.

BubbleMan remains loyal to ShadeMan after LaserMan's coup and tries to revive him unsuccessfully and watches Bass.EXE free ShadeMan.

In episode 51, he was able to get the Rush frags used to make ShadeMan cross to the real world from the cyberworld, back to MegaMan and his friends after which he walks away somewhere.


 * BubbleMan was, admittingly, the weakest of all of the Darkloids. The most damage he ever inflicted upon MegaMan was kicking Cross Fusion MegaMan after he was knocked down by ShadeMan in episode 50.

Rockman.EXE Stream
Bubbleman made a brief appearance offering his services to the members of Neo-WWW, however Tesla said no. Before being cut off, BubbleMan tries to tell her the location of a legendary treasure. After being ingnored, BubbleMan enlists SpoutMan and IceMan to go find said treasure. However MagnetMan follows them with MegaMan and Roll right behind him. The treasure the three find is in fact a bug frag, which is shattered by MagnetMan in rage. The three work together and defeat MagnetMan, despite his elemental advantage. Sadden, BubbleMan leaves, however he does smile, thinking there will be another adventure. BubbleMan is next seen aiding the revived ShadeMan and gets stuck in the past.

Rockman.EXE Beast
It is revealed that Colonel.EXE trapped him with an Ice Seed Battle Chip so that he couldn't alter the past. However, when he wakes up he sees viruses from Beyondard and rescues Trill. After giving him to MegaMan he leaves.

His role is primary comic relief. Despite being a Darkloid, he has never used a Dark Chip even once. After vanishing in Episode 32 of Stream, he reappears in Beast with more antics, such as pretending to be a Cyberbeast. He also appears during the battle with Gregar Beast Rockman in hopes of exacting revenge against him. Unfortunately, his efforts only serve to free the trapped Gregar Beast Rockman who then continues his berserker rampage through Internet City. He also reappears at the end of Beast to help fend off the beast viruses. He prays and then retreats after Super Cybeast Grezar arrives.

Rockman.EXE Beast+
He resurfaces in Beast+ and works with Yuika and Captain Kurohige to cause terror in the real world via copyroids, of various sizes, in a Team Rocket-like fashion (the blast-offs even look similar). They use the remains of Onibi Island as their base of operations (Onibi Island was once utilized by the Falzars as a copyroid manufacturing plant and was later flattened from a volley of the Onibi ghost battleship controlled by Zoan FlameMan). First, he supplies Yuika and Kurohige with small copyroids which only give Netto and friends a good laugh. Then he supplies them with badly-repaired regular size copyroids which malfunction in battle with R-Rockman. They then produce a large abnormal copyroid, which combines DiveMan and CircusMan into one. The copyroid is taller than a 12-story building. The copyroid is immune to conventional attacks and is disabled when R-Protoman destroys the pipe, the weak point, in DiveMan's mouth. It is finally destroyed when R-Rockman throws a few bombs, which CircusMan consumes. During this time, BubbleMan occupies a small copyroid.
