Star Man

Star Man (スターマン) is a Robot Master created by Doctor Albert Wily for space combat. He is a romanticist that likes watching opera and musicals, and dreams to travel deep into the space with a lover. In Mega Man 5 he took over a abandoned space station orbiting Earth. After Mega Man 5 he works as the supervisor of the construction from some of Wily's bases, becoming very busy and unhappy. His weapon is Star Crash, which creates a star-shaped barrier around him for defense and can be throw at enemies.

Strategy
Star Man only jumps through the screen trying to hit Mega Man with his Star Crash, sometimes throwing it. The Water Wave can pass through the Star Crash. After defeating him, Mega Man gets his weapon and the Super Arrow.

His stage makes Mega Man jump higher because of the low gravity. The second M from the Mega Man V Plate is in his stage.
