Star Force (スターフォース, Star Force), also known as Star Break (スターブレイク, Star Break) in the anime, is a transformation introduced in Mega Man Star Force. This transformation is granted by the Satellite Admins: Pegasus Magic, Leo Kingdom, or Dragon Sky, depending on the version played. All three can be obtained in one game by having Brothers from all three versions.

In the Games

After a certain point in the plot, the game's Star Force transformation is treated as a Brother card, and can be invoked once it appears in the custom screen. Invoking the Star Force allows for Mega Man to select cards in the same row, and also countering an enemy will result in Mega Man drawing his Star Force Big Bang (SFB), a Giga card that can deal impressive damage.

Each Star Force has its own element, and using the Star Force will change Mega Man's Charge Shot and properties. Getting hit by the Star Force's weakness will knock MegaMan out of the Star Force transformation. Brother cards from real-life Brothers playing other versions can also invoke the Star Force of that version.

In the Anime

In the anime, Geo Stelar is given the Star Break ability in the form of three Battle Cards given to him by the Satellite Admins. Throughout the first season, he often picks Star Break forms best suited to certain situations or cycles through all three transformations in the same battle.

The cards are lost when the Satellite Admins use the cards to combat Andromeda, and are killed in the process.

Trivia

• In the anime, Geo's Transer is blue and has Pegasus' logo on it, signifying that he belongs to the Pegasus satellite. However, the shade of blue matches Omega-Xis more than it does Pegasus.
• In the English version of Mega Man Star Force 3, the team that was assembled to stop Meteor G was called “Star Force” by Dr. Goodall .
  • In the Japanese version, this wasn’t the case. It was “Shooting Star” instead, named after Mega Man’s Japanese Transcode name, Shooting Star Rockman .
• The Star Forces have the least ability differences between forms in the entire series, with Dragon being the only one to have an ability the other two do not.
  • In Rockman Magazine vol.10, Pegasus was listed to have Auto Lock, Fire Leo was to boost Fire elemental and non-elemental Battle Cards with +50, and only Dragon was going to have Side Select (Status Guard was not listed). Capcom acknowledged this as a mistake on their website .
• In the Japanese version, by connecting the Wave Scanner toy, Mega Man can gain boosts and start battles in a Star Force form. The form he starts with depends on the satellite that the Wave Scanner is assigned to.
• Green Dragon's Elemental Cyclone is the only single elemental Wood attack that Mega Man can perform in the entire series that causes flashing frames. In Mega Man Star Force 3, Elemental Cyclone no longer causing flashing.
• Shinsuke Komaki states that some special Star Force art ended up being unpublished due to him missing the submission deadline . The art was eventually used years later in Rockman Xover as Battle Memory art.
