Amnesia

Amnesia is a recurring theme in the Mega Man franchise. It is the loss of one's memory, and can be temporary or permanent depending on how and why the individual lost their memory. If the individual is aware of their amnesia, they will often seek to recover their lost memories.

Mega Man X

 * Mega Man X loses his memory in his “bad ending” of Mega Man X5. A week after the events of the game, X states that while he clearly remembers Sigma, he has lost all his memories of what had happened and all of his memories of Zero, and wonders if the one who repaired him deleted those memories. Alia notes that his programming now has protection that prevents X from accepting any input relating to Zero.


 * Axl seems to suffer amnesia of his past, and seeks to recover it.  In Mega Man X7 it is shown that while Axl is fully aware of how his Copy Shot works, he has no idea where or how he acquired this ability.  The most that Axl can remember of his past is that Red found him one day and made him a member of Red Alert.
