Allright guys, I will be honest. My mega man is a little short these days. I really am not sure where the "story arc" of this franchise/series is at so feel free to update me in this thread. However, regardless of arc I am curious as to whats up with this situation and am interested in hearing various opinions on this subject. With that being said....

So, what if mega man got a girlfriend? To say and I mean not a boyfriend (if you have interest in that subject which I will openly say I do but, really this is a girlfriend topic so please stick with that) but, a girlfriend.

I believe if mega man got a girlfriend it would be most interesting to the entirety of the mega man series. I mean I'm sure there is much debate on the whole, robot feelings thing. While mega man is a robot, mind you, obviously he is intelligent, artificially, and perhaps more. I have long believed in the capabilities of where our friends who live a more machine life could go. Could the introduction of feelings really make a difference here for them? In mega mans case he has fought to save the "world" I shall say many times and has come a long way in his life. Now if for some reason love came into play, whether it be a new introduction of programming from dr. light or somehow an evolution of mega man himself, if somehow mega man began to "have feelings" shall we say and this lead to love, why not let him or allow for the story to open up to this? It could be a real girl or even a robot one created by whomever. I believe this would be really awesome and would really be happy to see even a progression, from "mega handshake" to "mega hug" to "mega kiss"! To say the very least, everyone deserves to be with someone...

So, this all being said now, do express what you think about this, anyone who had perhaps thought of it or sees this and totally is like "WOW!" I can say I know boys very well. There is that "oh, gross, a GIRL!" but, really on the inside you get all nutty buddy over it (those are delightful treats btw...nutty buddies...chocolate peanut butter wafers). So, I wanna see you guys be brave and say what you wanna say about this. Do keep in mind Viz rules though please and remember this really isn't a debate just a curiosity for other opinions. If you wanna debate about this, there is a debate forum for that. Anyways, feel free to post here and share, you know you want to. Thanks.

oldschoolboyz : Which Mega Man series are you talking about? Also, Mega Man IS capable of making his own decisions and has emotions, because in Mega Man 7, after beating Dr. Wily, he points his buster at Wily, charges it up and says, "I should have done this long ago."

oldschoolboyz : well depends what series your talking about. In classic series, megaman doesnt have a girl friend but a sister. In X series, X likes alea, Zero likes Iris and Layer, and Axl likes pallet, plus since X is also dr.light robot, like megaman, does that mean Roll is X sister too? in the Zero series, Zero liked ceil. in battle network, Lan likes Mailu, Megaman likes roll, Chaud likes yai (In the anime) and Lika likes the princess (i forgot her name but her net navi is nightman.) In the Starforce series, Geo likes the rock girl (I forgot her name too.) and i'm not listing the ZX series...but please let me know if i missed anything

RMJEtheReploid :  Actually, Alia MAY like Mega Man X. Zero likes Iris, true, but he doesn't like Layer. Layer likes Zero, not the other way around. Same with Ceil, Ceil likes Zero,(probably because Zero SAVED her life) not the other way around. Besides, Zero is a reploid, and Ceil is a human. It wouldn't work. For the others, I don't play the games that much. I think he's talking about classic Mega Man.

oldschoolboyz : To answer your question, I don't think Mega Man WILL get a girlfriend. I'm talking about classic here. He's a bit young, and the world needs saving! There isn't that much room for love relationships when the world is in danger.

oldschoolboyz : I think he already does (he just doesn't know it yet) It's roll! (Course it depends on what series you watch or play. If it's megaman star force...there is no roll. Besides, that technically would not be possible for megaman to have a girlfriend in this series because...megaman is a combination of two beings Omegaxis and Gio. So I'm not sure that really would work anyway. But for the main and Network transmission/battle network series. It's roll.

miystery : that is an interesting fact you have presented. also i was talking of the entirety of the megaman series..being all of them though i did not realize there were seperate story arcs for particular series area. that leads me to an interesting thought.

RMJEtheReploid : please see ^ . also i was not aware megaman had a sister. im sure that provided some interesting fun to the classic series story. i shall have to read up on that.

ZeroTails : ah yes, the ever present battle that somehow allegedly seperates love when there is war and i will say this again...allegedly. while yes, when the world needs saving there is little room for emotional components although contextually speaking adding "love" to the pot could make for the development of increasing plot elements, resolutions, and fun! thank you for bringing that up.

FaithFighter : so then roll? i shall have to read about this as im sure it is good. thank you for the input.

and everyone thanks for participating. to make a note i plan on going over the various stories in megaman that are currently in existence. i had a thought that perhaps it would be interesting if they were all connected somehow. the alleged information i received in regards to the final fantasy series is that they have done this for their particular area which to say the least most interesting when considering how this could be elementally played in other gaming series..my current thought being megaman. interesting food for thought.

Interesting concept, but there's things that need to be considered, what if Megaman's soulrobot was built by Wily? Is Megaman REALLY going to put his trust in one of his Arch-Nemesis's robots despite any affection Megaman might show for this female robot? There's a lot of factors you could put into this. Which leads to things you need to consider. Yes, Megaman has human emotion and yes, he has free will. But he still is a robot. He also has his duties of saving the world. There are factors you need to consider before this concept can see some potential canonical light. What if there was no more threats? I could definitely see it happening in that case. But there are factors that do stand in the way a bit.
