Guts Man

Guts Man, also known as Gutsman, is a character from the Mega Man series.
== Charactah Account ==
Guts Man is a Robot Master designed for land reclamation, Guts Man is immensely strong, able to effortlessly lift over two tons and throw it with his Super Arm. Though he can be short-tempered, he has a big heart and cares for his colleagues (and, incidentally, enjoys karaoke). While he appears often in the series, there are several other robots bearing a likeness to him that appear to fight Mega Man.
Guts Man possesses great physical strength, being capable of lifting and transporting heavy objects, including rocks of over two tons, with little effort. In battle, he can use his Super Arm to throw heavy objects, such as boulders and blocks, at his enemies. Guts Man can also use his strength to hit his enemies with a powerful tackle, and make the ground shake with his jumps.

== Trivia ==
* Guts Man (along with Bomb Man) was one of the only Robot Masters from the first Mega Man game that didn't appear in its Game Boy equivalent.
* The top bit of Guts Man's head resembles a Met helmet, identifying both as construction robots. The similarity was played with in the Rockman 8 manga, where fake Guts Mans are controlled by Mets. A fake Guts Man was also planned to appear as an enemy in Mega Man 10, where a Met would drop from him after the body's destruction, but the idea was scrapped.
* Guts Man and Splash Woman have the same interest: karaoke.
* Guts Man's original pose from Mega Man: Battle & Chase has him flexing one arm, but as it resembles the offensive gesture "Bras d'honneur", it was considered unacceptable in regions outside of Japan and an alternate art of Guts Man with both arms up was done. However, the instruction booklet from the European version used the original art, the alternate version's usage being unknown.
* In the third volume of the Mega Man Megamix series, in the story "The Greatest Enemy in History", Guts Man can be seen riding his "Wild Arms" car from Battle & Chase, whereas Cut Man is riding Rush Jet.
* In Mega Man Powered Up, Guts Man can easily defeat any of the other robot masters (including the false Mega Man) by trapping them in blocks. At maximum, Guts Man can have 4 blocks on screen. The player can use just 3 to trap them (although this can be difficult for some), then repeatedly summon a fourth and smash it against the prison-wall. Some of the small chunks will penetrate the wall and damage the boss, making an easy win.
** One of the most egregious examples is Elec Man, who, once Guts Man runs into a block, will continue running into the block, and will not turn around, allowing the player to easily use Super Arm repeatedly against him.
* An early sketch from the cover art of Mega Man's Soccer shows that Guts Man was once planned for the game, but he was scrapped and replaced by Proto Man.
* Guts Man's weakness to Time Slow is a possible reference to where slowing time holds advantage to the Earth making the Earth almost immobile as Guts Man was meant to be an Earth-mover robot.
* Guts Man's overworld model in Rockman Strategy has normal eyes, but his battle model has green spheres as eyes.
* In Mega Man Powered Up, when Guts Man heads through his stage, Guts Man's theme will be warped to major to show that something isn't right.
