Message: [QUOTE="Ikagura, post: 253916, member: 6930"] Considering how they got inspired by Atom/Astro Boy it may as well as it may not, knowing how far-fetched some japanese could be for naming or references. On the other hand I'd be curious to know where the "-man" naming came from for hero names. I know that Superman was one of the earlier exemples but I feel like it may be just a simple way to name characters (like Mario being known as Jumpman before simply because his main gimmick was jumping). [automerge]1751629776[/automerge] Gamefreaks ripped off Megaman for their game Pulseman? [ATTACH type="full" width="303px" size="640x893"]86886[/ATTACH] It would be a nice reference if they agreed to let Capcom borrow the character in a spinoff. But like Bombman not being allowed to be called Bomberman I can see that they wanna protect their character. [/QUOTE]
