Time Man

Time Man (タイムマン) is one of the two new Robot Masters from the remake of the original Mega Man from NES to the PSP: Mega Man Powered Up.

It is mentioned by Dr. Wily in Powered Up that Time Man is a prototype. Wily may have later perfected the design with his own robot, Flash Man. Further evidence can be found in the fact that Time Man can only slow time down while Flash Man can freeze it completely. Coincidentally, some enemies found in Flash Man's stage are also in Time Man's stage, which are Crazy Cannons, the enemies that resemble stopwatches.

Time Man is known to be irritable - somewhat conceited - and completely obsessed with time and his schedules. He also keeps large track of time, stating Mega Man is 0.3 seconds early when they fight.

As a playable character, his primary attack is shooting two clock arrows at the same time at angles, one going upwards, one going downwards, making Timeman an awkward character to control attacks. He is also known to be the second robot master - other than Megaman - to charge, and when he is fully charged, he can release the attack button to use Time Slow, which slows down time more than Mega Man's. He is able to charge again to the fullest while time is slowed, but if he releases it during the time, nothing will happen, and he must charge again for when the Time Slow wears off.
