Rockman 8 (manga)



A manga based on the 8th game in the Classic Series drawed by Izuki Koji. Volume 1 has five chapters. The first includes Forte interrupting Rock's soccer game, followed by a trip to the intro stage island and a battle against the crab boss. In Chapter 2, Grenademan attacks the mall where Roll is shopping, nearly ruining the chocolaty gift she has for Rock.

In chapter 3, Dr. Light tries to fix Duo, while Dr. Wily and Dr. Cossack (who is helping in order to get Kalinka back once again) study the newly discovered evil energy. When Duo awakens, Rock follows, only to run into Tenguman. Chapter 4 concludes the Tenguman fight and reunites Cossack with Kalinka.

In the final chapter, Rock visits an amusement park, only to be shocked by the high-flying trapeze antics of Clownman.

Volume 2 has five chapters. The initial chapter starts with a really hot Wily (no, not in that way), while our heroes enjoy a day at the beach. A child who dresses up as Rockman is mistaken for the genuine article when Wily and Frostman try to put the big freeze on the summer activities. Rock rescues the young man, who is more important than he appears.

Chapter 2 is a Wild West shootout between Rock and Cutman, until Forte decides to eliminate Cut from the picture. But the interruptions aren't complete, as Duo bursts onto the scene to start Chapter 3. Along with that battle, Duo and Rock also head to Wily's underground base, where Blues makes his first appearance.

Chapter 4 gets back to some Robot Master action when Aquaman and his watery showgirls kick into action. But not before Righttot has to navigate through an underwater maze.

Finally, the last chapter has Searchman ordering his troops to eliminate Rock in the forest. It includes a very, very short cameo by Woodman. Remember kids, only Rock can prevent Searchy from causing forest fires.
