## History

### **Before F-Zero X**

Super Arrow had been the defender of Earth and an upholder of justice as a superhero. At some point, he had encountered an evil villain named Zoda, and the two became each other's nemesis.

Sometime after, Super Arrow had met a woman who would eventually become his wife and partner, Mrs. Arrow.

Although Super Arrow had a driver's license, he had actually never driven before. When he heard that Zoda would be entering the F-Zero X Grand Prix, he hastily signed up for an F-Zero license to enter as well. As a new F-Zero pilot, he received extra help from his wife, Mrs. Arrow, who also joined the F-Zero X Grand Prix after she couldn't bear to watch her novice husband practice. Unlike Super Arrow, Mrs. Arrow had previous experience as an F-Zero pilot herself.

### **F-Zero X**

The Arrows entered the F-Zero X Grand Prix in matching machines designed by Professor Hollow, who also designed their reinforced suits and gadgets. Although, the King Meteor was modeled after the Queen Meteor, which was based on an old machine that Mrs. Arrow used in F-Zero races prior to her marriage.

Although they did not win, Super Arrow had performed fairly well in the Grand Prix thanks to his superpowers.

Super Arrow’s job is to protect the Earth. When Super Arrow discovered that Zoda, his sworn enemy, had entered the Grand Prix, he entered as well.

***Note: See the JP Manual bio below for what was excluded from the US Manual.***

 **(English Translation by Sidier):** His employment is that of a superhero to protect peace on Earth. He heard that his arch nemesis, Zoda, was suddenly joining the "F-Zero X" race. In order to expose his plot, Super Arrow decided to join the race himself and quickly got a pilot license. His only weakness is that he can't argue back to his wife.

### **F-Zero GX**

When it came to the F-Zero GX Grand Prix the following year, Super Arrow and his wife entered once more to stop Zoda. It is also suggested, in Captain Falcon's Master Pilot video, that the Arrows may have had a baby possibly sometime between F-Zero X and F-Zero GX.

Super Arrow is a superhero who defends peace on Earth. He entered the last F-ZERO race to chase his old enemy, Zoda. At the time, Super Arrow had never even driven before, so he had to hurriedly register for an F-ZERO license just so that he could enter the race. Even so, he managed to race competitively by utilizing his superpowers.
Zoda has entered the race again, and Super Arrow must do all he can to stop him and end his reign of terror.
He is known for his relentlessly unforgiving attitude towards criminals, but when it comes to his wife, Mrs. Arrow, he’s as docile as a puppy.

 **DeepL Translation:** A superhero of justice who protects the peace of Earth. Since his nemesis Zoda participated in F-ZERO last time, he got his F-ZERO pilot's license in a hurry, as he had been a *paper driver.* And even though it was his first time participating in the event, he used his inhuman superpower to achieve good results. Zoda is in the race again this time, and Super Arrow continues to participate in order to crush his nemesis’ ambitions. Super Arrow is very strong against bad people, but he is scared of his own wife and can’t oppose her.

*Note:* A paper driver refers to someone who has their driver's license, but have either never driven even after acquiring it or lack experience. In Super Arrow's case, he was explicitly stated to have never driven before.

***A Fighter For Justice Night And Day.***
Super Arrow is a hero who defends peace on Earth. He entered the last F-ZERO race to chase after Zoda, but had to register his F-ZERO license on the spot. Zoda has entered again, and Super Arrow must do all he can to stop him and end his reign of terror.

#### **F-Zero GX Story Mode**

Super Arrow appears along with his wife in the Bet & Race Dollars bar in Chapter 3, fighting with Zoda for only a few moments before settling down for drinks. The Arrows, along with Zoda, are later seen at the F-Zero GX Grand Prix in Chapter 7.

#### **Magnificent Guitar Hero Super Arrow**

Upon beating any Grand Prix on Master mode with the King Meteor, it will unlock a special video for Super Arrow, which also features his theme song.

Super Arrow is seen giving a guitar performance for what appears to be a music video. Noticeably, the guitar seems to have Super Arrow's suit pattern, in inverted colors. The backdrop of the stage lights up as the extra guitar kicks in. The camera footage also changes to show Super Arrow running with a blue sky above him, shortly before he leaps and is then seen flying through the sky. Whether or not this is an actual superpower or special effect, is not known. He also lip-syncs to his theme song, waving his finger to what is assumed to be an off-screen audience, before flexing his muscle as the video ends.

## Trivia

* Super Arrow's true identity is not known.
* The F-Zero X Nintendo of America website content heavily contradicts the actual information provided in the F-Zero X JP manual. Super Arrow could not have ever been a pilot prior to F-Zero X, and the F-Zero X Academy could never be canon.
* It is not known when exactly Super Arrow and Mrs Arrow met, dated, and got married. Considering Mrs. Arrow was a former F-Zero circuit model and F-Zero pilot before marriage and before F-Zero X, the Arrows getting together could have occurred during the three year suspension.
* The extent of his superpowers are not spoken of in detail, but his GX pilot video shows that he can apparently fly. He can also play the guitar.
* While he does not appear in Captain Falcon's F-Zero GX Master Pilot video, the appearance of Mrs. Arrow and a blonde baby in the video could imply that the Arrows had a child at some point.
* Super Arrow's owl does not have a name, unlike its Animeverse counterpart, in which the latter's name is Zuck/Zukku.
