Saburou and NoodleMan.EXE

Kotohiro Saburou and his NetNavi NoodleMan (Sanukiman in Japan) are two characters that appeared in episode 54 of the anime MegaMan NT Warrior.

Saburou is the owner of a noodle (sanuki udon in Japan) restaurant called The Slick Noodle (へらこい亭), and NoodleMan is the restaurant's mascot, appearing in popular commercials that end with him saying "noodles" ("Udon") while making a pose. The Slick Noodle is next door to Yahoot's #1 Curry, and they are rivals that don't get along as they think their food is superior.

To get rid of the competition, Saburou spies #1 Curry and gives NoodleMan to Chisao, tricking him to believe that the NetNavis from #1 Curry are evil aliens. To please Chisao and avoid being identified, NoodleMan takes GutsMan's form and goes by the name NuggetsMan (KutsMan in Japan) and they manage to defeat the WWW NetNavis, causing chaos in #1 Curry. When Lan and Dex were searching for Chisao, they see smoke coming out from #1 Curry and use MegaMan and GutsMan to fight against NuggetsMan. During the battle NoodleMan gives himself away by saying "noodles" and making a pose like his commercials, and Chisao is found in the Slick Noodle. Saburou assumes command and NoodleMan is defeated by MegaMan and GutsMan. Afterwards the WWW members think how to punish their rival, but Lan asks them to forgive Saburou, reminding them that there is a plate called spicy noodle curry (curry udon) that uses both noodle and curry. Saburou and the WWW members got emotional by remembering of the delicious plate, and they stop arguing.
