Mamoru Urakawa

Mamoru is a child from Mega Man Battle Network 3 who, like Hub Hikari, has the heart condition "HBD". He has been hospitalized since he was three years old, and remarkably survives what most people wouldn't.

When Lan Hikari meets him on the beach for a second time, he has an HBD attack, which Lan witnessed. Lan re-enters the Seaside Hospital and finds his doctor, taking him and a nurse to assist him. This attack landed Mamoru in the emergency room, but he didn't want to have surgery. His nurse tells Lan that he has undergone surgery three times, but those were all unsuccessful. Mamoru has no hope that a fourth surgery would solve his problem, even though it is a new kind of surgery for HBD, but Lan encourages him and gives him a IceBall M Battle Chip.

Three days later, Mamoru's condition got worse and he was sent to the emergency room for his fourth surgery, but it was interrupted three hours later by Anetta, who was disguised as a nurse and used her NetNavi PlantMan to make the growth function of the Tree of Life, a large tree in the middle of the hospital, malfunction and create vines throughout the hospital to destroy the place and find a TetraCode for Wily. After MegaMan defeats PlantMan, the Tree of Life returns to normal and Mamoru's surgery is successful. He returns to his house after this, but it is unknown if he was cured or just feels better. No information is revealed regarding Mamoru's future, though a scene in the end credits show Lan giving Mamoru a PET, suggesting that he was well enough to NetBattle. He appears again later in the game to help Lan.
