President Haltmann

President Max Profitt Haltmann is the main antagonist of the game Kirby Planet Robobot"President Haltmann" on Kirby Wiki and was one of the main characters of The SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis.
== Rips ==
The first reference to Haltmann actually predates his formal introduction into the lore, in the description of "Gourmet Race (Beta Mix) - Kirby Super Star Ultra" which related to his love of profit. "The Noble Haltmann" is his leitmotif, and has been used in rips since his relevance on the channel.
In Season 1 he only appears physically in one rip, "VANESSA - beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD", and is cited by name in "Freedom to Decide (Alpha Mix) - Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty".
He also explains some aspects of the channel's lore through the series of rips.
=== In The SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis ===
President Haltmann was working under the orders of The Voice Inside Your Head, who materialized him into the real world through SiIvaGunner's computer in "Prologue", constructing robots for him such as the Patrol-Bots, the Spherics and the Stringbots. He is first mentioned in the episode "Seasonal Return" (although he doesn't speak or appear on-screen) in which he follows The Voice's command and executes the Cinderella Girls.
Knowing the character, it would seem strange that he would accept to work under the supervision of someone else, but it is revealed in "No Place To Hide" that he is apparently doing this to save his daughter Susie (it is yet unknown why she is in trouble) as The Voice promised him to help her in exchange for the robotic engineering provided by the Haltmann Works Company. If their relationship seems cordial at first, The Voice makes regularly clear that he is at the top of the hierarchy. In the episode "Haltmann", he begins to show his doubts before The Voice's ambitions and wonders if even saving his daughter is worth such chaos.
In "Loves the Ladies", he seems to have some memory troubles while listing all the "anime weeaboo bullshit" he executed. The Voice then tries to trick him into thinking he managed to bring his daughter back while it actually is a poorly disguised Haruka Amami singing "The Noble Haltmann"; he hoped he wouldn't recognized her like back in Planet Robobot. Though touched by the beauty of her performance, he clearly didn't fall for it and left the room furious at The Voice's treachery, despite his claims that he will soon really be able to do it. The Voice later noticed that he spent all his time working on a secret mecha project in his workshop, but assumed he was just "planning ahead".SiIvaGunner's Twitter - May 3, 2017 It appeared in "An announcement from your new leader" that this project actually was Inspector Gadget, overthrowing The Voice and taking over the channel. Gadget was eventually killed by a DCMA claim. Afterwards, Haltmann became the new host of the channel. Rather than following along with The Voice's plan of anime genocide, he intends to create high quality rips so that he can sell the channel off and profit immensely.
In "One Last Chance", Haltmann reveals to Meta Knight, Nozomi and Santa Claus, that his intentions were not for profit, but rather to bring back his daughter Susie, by manifesting her as a Figment through The SiIva A.I., a recreation of the original SiIvaGunner which shares his power to create Figments. Haltmann then commands the A.I. to engage the heroes in a battle. The A.I. summons various Figments and humans from the channel's history, using them as weapons to kill the protagonists. Nozomi distracts Haltmann and hijacks his vessel, causing the A.I. to malfunction and commencing shutdown, deactivating the laboratory and leaving behind it's own core, a a pitch-black sphere. Haltmann is on the ground, with all of his motivation lost. Though Santa tries embracing it and giving Haltmann a new chance. However, as Haltmann accepts Santa's embrace, he is suddenly killed by electrocution at the hands of The Voice Inside Your Head. Due to Haltmann's nature as a Figment, the heroes lose all memories of him, and The Voice challenges them to come to his office.

== Albums ==
Haltmann is the first takeover host to release multiple albums, which he does through the Haltmann Works Company.
This is explained by him having the legal rights to SiIvaGunner (in-universe)Going by "An AWESOME Announcement!": "The [SiIvaGunner] IP is owned by four individuals with a 5th person joining ownership by the end of the year." (Additionally, The Voice is not one of them.) and presumably attempting to use the albums as a way to profit from it. However, in a similar manner to the running gag where SiIvaGunner would mention how the album titles were "corrupted", each album released by Haltmann will have a reason why he doesn't profit off of Bandcamp purchases (this is necessary as, out-of-universe, SiIvaGunner is non-profit).
In "FILE 12 of Haltmann's Archives", it is explained that Haltmann's albums are in fact fabrications of the albums put out by SiIvaGunner during his time.
He released the following albums during his takeover:
* Inspector Gunner
* The Voice's Highest Quality Video Game Rips
* A HOT ONE
* Haltmann's Highest Quality Video Game Rips
* wood man's very nice album ...feat. mega man, i guess – "monetized" by Haltmann Works

* Ripmas
* Rips of Christmas Past – stated on TwitterTweet by @GiIvaSunner - Dec 26, 2017.
* Rips of Christmas Future – stated on Twitter (same as above)
These albums released during his takeover seem to have no relation:
* .@GiIvaSunner Whips & Nae Naes on Ellen the Generous
* DAMN.
* The SiIvaGunner YTPMV Collab (Eek!).veg
* Your Onii-Chan's Favorite Rips!
