one thing that i've always found kind of interesting about dr. light's design is his hair.
from original incarnations
to recent incarnations
to mega man x
the dude straight-up rocks a pomp. inafune said he based doctor light’s design off santa claus, which i can understand, but last i checked santa claus had a cool hat covering his hair, not a goddamn biker ‘do
and it's funny, because in-game he's generally pretty straight-laced and serious. he's the Dad. he's megaman's dad.
the kind of father figure he is depends on whether it's the archie comics (navigator/moral support), fully charged (invested in his son's life), ruby spears (addled), the classic games (non-existent), or the X games (not existent), but generally he acts as the caring father figure overseeing megaman and trying to cheer him along.
but what does capcom think of him?
ライト博士のコンセプトはひとことで言うと「父性」ですね. / Dr. Light's concept could be summed up in a single word as "father".
優しくて大らかで、でも時には厳しさも見せる、ロックマンの生みの親であリ、ロボツト社会の父です。 / He's the creator of both Megaman and modern roboticism, and is quite a kind and generous man, but he has a rougher side to him...
(My japanese is not professional, please take this translation with a grain of salt)
pardon?
that light has a rougher/harsher side is honestly surprising, considering you can count the amount of times he's been genuinely angry on-screen on a single hand.
he's one of the most successful and revolutionary men of 20XX and still manages to be chill a f, always coming up with an answer for even the most out-there situations.
but that would explain the delinquent hairstyle.
so, what do we actually know about light?
- he attended class with Wily and shot down Wily's double gear thing
- depending on the translation, they either worked together as a team (english) or were only colleagues (japanese) or were cooperative rivals (megamix)
- the dude's biggest school accomplishments are winning the LIT Manual Design contest four years in a row, and a World Engineer First Prize, both tasks focusing on technical prowess rather than strictly academic prowess
- that said, he has a Nobel Prize in physics so fuck me i guess
- nowadays he works as a professor at the Mecha-Chuchets Institute of Robology
- despite that, he likes keeping his hands busy, since he's got a side hustle as a contracted roboticist for O.D.A. Electronics
- it's something that he actively enjoys and wants to keep doing for the fun of it, since in exchange O.D.A. provides electronic parts to him, rather than silly things like "a paycheck"
- he REALLY likes keeping his hands busy, since he also provides technology to Nakaume Heavy Machinery and Tsubakuro Precision Machining
- the dude super-believes in peace and justice
- he hates fighting and hated giving rock a weapon to turn him into megaman
- despite this, he knows martial arts, since he teaches X the Hadouken and Shoryuken. this is questionable in canonicity but i'm going somewhere with this, trust me
- according to his diary, he likes playing fighting games to unwind.
- he likes to smoke (don't smoke, kids)
- he likes rock and roll, as in the music genre. though i guess he likes rock and roll the characters as well. i guess.
- generally he's kind of a music fan.
- he's an optimist and generally tries to believe the best in others, that people can change and evil can be redeemed
- he's transhumanist before capcom knew what that word meant, and worked towards a dream world where humans and sentient robots can live side by side in harmony
if there's a hard side to him, we've rarely seen it
so my brain decides to start taking several jumps, right?
what if the bitterness lies in his history? we don't actually know much about light's history.
the pompadour and love of rock bring to mind a very specific kind of image, that of the greaser from the 1950s. rebels without a cause, delinquent teenagers causing problems and getting into trouble. coincidentally enough, it's a style that the franchise has flirted before, with hideki ishikawa's art of roll and rock dressed up in old americana fashion, with rock sporting a greaser pomp.
but where would he have gotten that from?
let's delve completely into the realm of headcanon.
what if light wasn't the most upstanding youth?
the fact that he actively enjoys working with his hands and pursues mostly the physical aspects of engineering rather than the academic aspects seems to be the most telltale part of this angle. it's quite possible that he simply didn't do well at academic pursuits.
struggled at school. wore a leather jacket. smoked. hung around at arcades. listened to rock n' roll. played with hearts. probably broke some hearts, too.
given his extremely pained stance on violence now, it's possible he very much saw the effects of violence first-hand in his youth. got into brawls, started fights. probably got into real bad fights. maybe ended them too.
but Something Happened along the way. something that made him change course.
and so, light started cleaning up his life. started learning and practicing martial arts to focus, to become one with himself. went to a technical school to start working with his hands, and managed to pick things back up and get his life back on track.
he was in a dark place, but he managed to change, and so he knows first hand that people can change. that good lies in people. and that he knows even the most seedy of people have the potential to change and to become great.
and a good decade or two later, that throwaway good-for-nothing delinquent starts excelling in this new field. something that lets him get his hands filthy and to make things--make PHYSICAL things. things that have an impact.
and a good several decades after that, he's finally advanced enough in his skills that he wants to make someone he can be close to. someone he can love. someone he can call family.
i notice rock and roll aren't super-curious about their metaphorical grandparents.
probably not important, have a rough sketch i did instead:

StEx Appreciation Month Day Twenty-Five: National Engines
Favorite Actor: (Just for my faves, cause I don’t think about the Nationals as often)
Espresso: Gary Sheridan
Brexit: Kevin Kohler
Turnov: Luke Dowling
Ruhrgold: Cole Dunn
Favorite Song/Scene: Their introductions, them racing, and that lovely moment in the megamix now where they all wave their flags :)
Favorite Costume: I love Espresso’s update costume! Bobo being orange makes a lot more sense, the Japanese Engine looks the best and most accurate in the update as Manga as well. Ruhrgold being the white, red, and blue ICE design is perfection.
Favorite Ship: BoboxEspresso, Ruhrgold/Carrie or Joule
Headcanon: Exchanging phrases in their different languages is always something they have fun with every year at the championship races
Unpopular Opinion: Uhhh, not sure I have any? Other than I really prefer Ruhrgold over Weltschaft? For obvious reasons...also the only British engine I care about is Brexit, sorry
continuing my adventures in schlock horror, and happened across one regarding mega man, interestingly enough. i don't recall seeing one tackle this series before.
and for what it's worth? i enjoyed it.
with my admittedly little knowledge of the series, i think it wildly mischaracterizes rock... but i'll give it a pass as twisting the common exe(?) trope/motive from "GRAAHHHH IM GONNA JEFF THE KILL YOIU" to "father will be so happy to have a real, human son. he will be so happy." is pretty interesting.
just would have loved to see this be it's own... thing though, y'know?
oh, speaking of the game! the art is a cut above the rest when it comes to these kinds of projects! and it's oddly familiar too? the way the artist draws roll and her facial expressions is really familiar, just can't place why lol. plus, the fact the person's presumably using the megamix engine for that added authenticity really adds to it.
pretty good overall, a real pleasant surprise for my trash-diving ventures.
i get that fever's games were probably easier to port to megamix cuz they didn't have to make new assets and i'm pretty sure megamix uses basically the same engine as fever (since all the karate man games are based on fever karate man). but there's so many fever games. and yet they still excluded some of the best ones??? i just. what.

BEFORE USING AND FOR MORE DETAILS SEE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE PRODUCT OR CONTACT SIE CONSUMER SERVICES AT 1-80.ġ-2 players. CERTAIN PATTERNS MAY TRIGGER SEIZURES WITH NO PRIOR HISTORY. Even Yamauchi himself concedes that he turns off the music when he wants to concentrate on pure racing.WARNING: IF YOU HAVE A HISTORY OF EPILEPSY OR SEIZURES, CONSULT A DOCTOR BEFORE USE. The Music Replay feature feels like a slightly peculiar focus (one odd piece of footage we’ve seen marries a Subaru BRZ shredding around Tskuba to a 1980s classical disco megamix of George Gershwin music, and it is bafflingly incongruous), but the Music Rally mode is Polyphony Digital’s solution for what the team believes has been a long-time dilemma that GT players have juggled in the past regarding music: balancing a desire to hear the background music with the need to hear the engine and the tyres when trying to focus on serious racing. Yamauchi explains that the Polyphony Digital team is embracing this music more than ever, with a new Music Replay feature – a replay mode where the cameras are generated automatically and switch in time with the music – and a new mode called Music Rally.
#GRAN TURISMO 7 LOGO SERIES#
Music has always played a vital role in the GT series and GT7 is set to include the biggest library of music ever, with over 300 tracks from over 75 artists. While the Gran Turismo Café sounds very interesting, there are some slightly more idiosyncratic new features that have been extensively discussed relating to music. While clearing them all will apparently bring players to the campaign mode’s ending, Yamauchi stresses this is really just the beginning of what players will be able to do in GT7. We spotted former Mazda designer Tom Matano, known for his work on the iconic MX-5, and Freeman Thomas, designer of the Audi TT and the New Beetle.Īccording to Yamauchi there’ll be over 30 of these Menu Books in the café, which he likens to quests. In a respectful touch it’s noted that the original designers of some of these cars will even appear to reminisce over their memories of bringing them to life. Yamauchi explains that each time a Menu Book is completed we’ll be able to listen to the café owner explain the history and culture behind the cars highlighted in that Menu Book. The Gran Turismo Café is designed to deepen a player’s understanding of the enormous world of Gran Turismo, and the automotive culture to which it’s dedicated, via a series of driving challenges assigned by the café’s so-called Menu Books.

Regarding DLC packs of MM weapons from the previous games, this is usually why ppl enjoy Mega Maker or Megamix Engine. They incorporate reproductions of previous weapons and let you choose similar to Wily Tower. They also take the liberty of giving certain weapons needed buffs, i.e Hyper Bomb.
Fair. I guess sometime I should take a look at it. But also admittedly I'd just like to see what some of those alternate suits could look like for older weapons.
