Kuwagust Anchus

Kuwagust Anchus (クワガスト・アンカトゥス) is one of the bosses of Mega Man Zero 2. In light of Elpizo's Operation Righteous Strike, Sage Harpuia sees this as reason for a counter-attack, and sends Kuwagust to commandeer an airship, armed with a bomb, on course for the Resistance Base. Kuwagust is a Reploid based on the stag beetle (Kuwagata in Japan; not to be confused with Boomer Kuwanger) and is a member of Harpuia's Rekku Army (Strong Air Squadron). As he was built with the same technology as Herculious Anchus, they are known as brother Reploids, and he mentions him during his battle against Zero. When the player faces him again in the final stage, Zero fights both him and Herculious together, who both die once they are tricked into colliding into each other, resulting in their simultaneous demise.

Trivia

 * The second name of Herculious and Kuwagust is the same in Japan, but had different translations: Anchortus and Anchus. This issue was fixed in the Mega Man Zero Collection.
 * The character may be a reference to Gravity Beetle, as both characters are based on bugs and had a brother who died at the hands of the protagonists and wanted to avenge them.
