Yamato Man

Yamato Man (ヤマトマン) is a combat Robot Master modeled after a samurai warrior. Although his armor appears to be heavy, it was made thin and as light as possible to improve his mobility, but reducing his defense. He has the Japanese spirit, and has great respect for Knight Man due to his valor and honor. Yamato Man's weapon is the Yamato Spear, which he uses to throw spear tips at enemies. However, he has a short stock of spear tips, and has to pick them up after use.

In the First Annual Robot Tournament, he was stolen and reprogrammed by Mr. X to help him conquer the world. His weakness is the Silver Tomahawk.

Trivia

 * The word Yamato (大和) means "ancient Japan".
 * The Yamato is also one of the oldest hereditary monarchy still in existence.


 * Yamato Man's quote from his CD data, "Nippon Banzai!", means "Long live to Japan!". Nippon (日本) means Japan and banzai (ばんざい) is an exclamation that literally means "ten thousand years" and is typically translated as "long live" in English.


 * Yamato Man's head is based off the kabuto-style samurai helmets that often sport ornate crests (which were unique signatures to distinguish certain individuals/families/clans from each other).


 * Yamato Man is purple in most of his artwork, while in his Mega Man 6 mugshot, he is blue.
