Guts Man

"I got it covered!"

- Guts Man, when selected in

Guts Man (ガッツマン) is a civil engineer Robot Master from the Mega Man classic series created by Dr. Light for wilderness reclamation to help with constructions, along with Bomb Man. Guts Man has deep feelings and likes karaoke, but is impatient and doesn't like reasoning. Guts Man and Stone Man are good friends.

Guts Man possesses great physical strength, being capable of lifting and transporting heavy objects like a rock of two tons. In battle, he can use his Super Arm to throw heavy objects, such as boulders and blocks, at his enemies. He can also use his strength to hit enemies with a powerful tackle, and can make the ground shake with his jumps.

Guts Man, alongside Cut Man, are the bosses with most appearances in the series. Guts Man and Cut Man also appeared in all episodes of Ruby-Spears' Mega Man animated series, and his GutsMan.EXE counterpart is a major character in the MegaMan Battle Network series. There is also a huge tank with his form in Mega Man 2, Guts-Dozer, a modified version of him in Mega Man 7, Guts Man G, and other robots that bear a resemblance to his design, like Guts Hover, Gamma, Concrete Man and Gorisly.

In Mega Man Powered Up, he is shown to have average intelligence, and usually tells his enemies to go home, because "little boys don't belong here", being the construction site. When he is a boss, his entrance is simply rising from the ground. After losing half his life, if it is Normal or Hard mode, he will ocassionally burrow into the ground and try to jump out below the player with a Guts block. On Hard mode, he throws the block upon rising then burrows into the ground again twice. As a playable character, he is able to create blocks from thin air and then throw them using the Super Arm. He can also use them as platforms, but only five could be used at a time, and he can't make them on conveyor belts. Also, this ability has been critisized by fans to be "slow", as you have to create the block, pick it up, then throw it, and it cannot hit smaller enemies on the ground.

Mega Man
Guts Man is in every episode of the Mega Man cartoon series along with Cut Man. In the cartoon, all brawn and no brain would be the best way to describe Guts Man (often referred to also as "Gutsy" on the show). While Guts Man is a very strong and deadly opponent, he usually finds himself on the losing side thanks to his stupidity. This Guts Man has a very square blue jaw, where the video game Guts Man had a more round beige jaw, and this Guts Man also has grey feet with blue lines while his video game counterpart has red feet. Other than that, there's not much difference.

Guts Man had his own action figure.

Captain N: The Game Master
Guts Man appears in the fifth episode of the cartoon Captain N: The Game Master.

Mega Man Megamix
In the manga Mega Man Megamix, Guts Man is taller than his video game counterpart, and his alloy is the most resistant of Dr. Light's robots. He's the last of Dr. Light's robots that Mega Man faces. As the Mega Buster doesn't work against him, Mega Man used the Hyper Bomb to damage the inner components of Guts Man, deactivating him. He is later fixed by Dr. Light to help in deactivating Wily's base. After this, the government decides to dispose all six of Dr. Light's robots for their criminal actions, but Wood Man rescues them, asking them to join Wily again. Guts Man refuses, and helps Mega Man to fight against Air Man and other Wily robots. After this event, the government forgave the six robots.

Other appearances
Guts Man appeared in the manga Rockman and Rockman 4Koma Great March, and in the Brazilian comic Novas Aventuras de Megaman. In the latter, he is named Killer and bears a resemblance to the way he appears in the cartoon.
