"Hmph! Lousy meddler. But you do live up to your name as a legendary Maverick Hunter."

―Wild Jango, Mega Man X: Command Mission

Wild Jango (ワイルドジャンゴー, Wairudo Jangō) is a boss in Mega Man X: Command Mission. Jango was a pitiless and sly Rebellion agent that employed Spider to attack X when he tried to infiltrate Central Tower.

Characteristics

Wild Jango was a Reploid with the appearance of a bobcat. He had a feline head and orange armor with dark spots, resembling the pattern of a bobcat's coat. He also possessed large blades all around his body, such as on his back-mounted booster and his claws. He had a somewhat hunchbacked stature.

Wild Jango was a hot-headed and cunning individual. He was enraged when Spider betrayed him, sending Preons to punish him and later defeating him himself. He also planned to detonate the entire Central Tower when R refused to join the Rebellion, showing his callous disregard for life. He was very confident in his abilities, believing he could easily take on both X and Spider at once. He also had an odd tendency to say "nyar" as a reaction or at the ends of sentences, likely a translation of the Japanese cat vocalization "nyan."

History

Background

Wild Jango participated in the Force Metal experiments in the lab at Lagrano Ruins, labeled as the "Ultra Mobile Bobcat Reploid". He later joined the Rebellion Army.

Mega Man X: Command Mission

Wild Jango is first seen in the Central Tower's Command Room, where he watches X's approach over surveillance cameras. He is approached by Spider, and the two strike a deal: Spider will eliminate X and receive a blank check from the Rebellion in return. However, once Spider betrays him to work with X instead, Jango furiously sends guards after him.

Later, it is revealed that Spider went to fight Jango alone, but was defeated. Jango then makes one last attempt to sway Chief R to the Rebellion, but when it fails, he activates a time bomb to bring Central Tower to the ground. X manages to defuse the bomb and catches up to him before he can escape on the helipad. However, Jango knocks X down with ease, causing him to drop Aile's ID. When he picks it up to inspect it, Spider strikes him with a card, revealing he has come to help X despite his injuries. Jango then fights X and Spider, but is defeated.

Wild Jango is later the first of the Rebellion Reploids to reappear in the Far East HQ. After his defeat, Axl theorizes that it was merely another Reploid using a copy ability.

Stats and abilities

He is extremely swift and fast, his speed being aided by a thruster-like booster on his back, which he takes advantage of in wielding his electrified claws. Jango is also capable of curling up and somersaulting through the air, striking his enemy with electricity and stunning them through his Rolling Assault attack.
