Ask Ruby-Spears Dr.Light 3

I'm Thomas Light from an Alternate Rockman Universe. Your questions are important to me,no matter how silly or trivial. I will answer them to the best of my ability. Dragon Ball questions are extremely welcome.
----------------------------------------------------------------
I was reading online about things that were cut from Super Street Fighter II and I came across the name 'Sarah'. Who was she?

RS Dr.Light: Well there are 2 explinations to this. During production of the game,there were originally supposed to be 8 new fighters,which included 2 females. However,before any of the new challengers could be part of the game,SNK bought out some of the staff. Because of this, Capcom was forced to cut 4 characters for time. One of which was a woman named Sarah.

The other explination,of course, is that Sarah was just the prototype name for Cammy.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who and what is Chibi-Chibi? Really?

Ah,my first Sailor Moon related question. Well Chibi-Chibi has 2 alternate origins. In the Manga (and likely the crystal anime),Chibi-Chibi was Sailor Cosmos,A Future Sailor Moon,who was sick,tired and confused of a great war being waged in her time. She ran away to the past as Chibi-Chibi to make sure the war never happens by convincing Sailor Moon to destroy the Cauldron(read the manga to find out what that is).  However,after seeing Sailor Moon save everyone with love,Chibi-chibi realised that prehaps Sailor Moon not destroying the Cauldron was the correct choice. She became Cosmos once again,once she regained her self-courage.

Now in the '92 Anime,Chibi-Chibi was Sailor Galaxia's star seed,who left her body once Chaos took it over. That should explain things quite nicely.
------------------------------------------------------------
Could Robot Masters be considered Advanced Androids as well?

RS Dr.Light: No. While they may seem similar,Robot Masters have limited A.I. and memory capacity. They also have pre-programmed personalities and attitudes that can easily be changed either manually or via Protocol Disruptor (that wily invention). Advanced Androids do not have these limitations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
What happens to the Robot Masters (and evil advanced androids) after they are destroyed by Mega Man and Co.?

RS Dr.Light: To be honest,not even I fully know the answer to that. I know that sometimes Robot Masters get recycled into newer Robots. While others get rebuilt. I don't know what happens to Advanced Androids though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hear Protoman was built by You. This true?

RS Dr.Light: Yes,Yes,Yes,and Yes. It's extremely important to know that Protoman was My creation and son,not Dr.Wily's. Albert Wily only helped with programming nothing more. When he went insane,Albert stole Blues (protoman) and redesigned him into a super fighting robot called Protoman. Thankfully,Protoman came back to us.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You mentioned that Your Universe is a rebooted one. Explain please?

RS Dr.Light: The original version of our universe was what you saw in the 90's Animated Series. But a chain of events caused it to be erased and replaced with this one. Now,It is said that if a timeline or universe is wiped clean,it will instantly be replaced with a fresh one. I found this out quite recently.

How these events happened is unknown to me.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What are the differences between Protoman's Plasma Buster and Mega Man's?

RS Dr.Light: Not much. Protoman can charge up his shots and Master Weapons with his,while Mega can only rapid fire with his.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Compared to other Rockmen,how powerful is Your Mega Man?

RS Dr.Light: Um...how to explain in a simple term.....Oh,How about this? Rockman is a 5,Rockman X is a 10, Irregular Hunter Zero is a 9,Rockman Zero is a 14 or 15,All 4 Rockman ZX heroes are a 12,Rockman Trigger/Voulnut is an 8,and My Mega is an 11.

I hope that was a clear answer for you.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If Sailor Moon and your Roll fought,who would win?

RS Dr.Light: While my Roll is the strongest Advanced Android (for the moment,at least), Sailor Moon has all of those attacks. Sure they may look weak,but I can assure everyone that they are anything but.

Roll would have to rely on her superior fighting skill and power to win. The Utility Arm will also be handy. While Sailor Moon will have to rely on her special attacks. I say Roll has the advantage in this fight. Why the two would do battle is beyond me.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
What's the official language of The Dragon Universe (the universe of dragon ball)?

RS Dr.Light: Japanese (and sometimes okinawan). Everyone speaks this language. Even the American-esque characters,lime the Brief family speaks Japanese. Hell,even the Saiyans,Namekians,Frieza People,and the Kai's speak Japanese. Yes,the Gods too.

A little English is used every now and again too.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quickly Hadouken vs Kamehameha,which is better?

RS Dr.Light: Why the Kamehameha,of course. Goku's energy wave would completely obliterate Ryu's energy blast.

Well,that's all for now. I look forward to answering more of your questions.

Ask Ruby-Spears Dr.Light 2

It's once again time for another Ask RS Dr.Light.

RS Dr.Light: I am Dr. Thomas Light,well not the same one you know of,but an alternative universe version. Ask me anything and I will answer it to the best of my abilities
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Do Advanced Android's Eat Food?

RS Dr.Light: Not human food no. They drink specialized liquid energy for "nourishment". It's the same kind that's in Eddie's energy cans.  They Can drink water however,and I'm working on a new generation android that can handle human beverages. Oh,don't tell a soul about that last part.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
How many female Robot Masters are there in your Universe?

RS Dr.Light: Quite a few actually. There's Splash Woman,Torch Woman,Sunflower Woman,and Officer Woman (pepper). Those are the ones I know,there could be hundreds. I know other female robots,but they aren't Robot Masters.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is Mega Man's Plasma Cannon A buyable item in your Universe?

RS Dr.Light: Yes. By Patton Inc,a military weapons manufacture. I made the plans for the Cannon with Dr.Wily many many years ago and sold them to the highest bidder,which was Patton Inc. Plasma Cannons come in many different varieties.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
How do both You and Dr.Wily earn your income? Robot building isn't very cheap,no matter what Universe you live in.

RS Dr.Light: I knew we were coming to this point. I sell my ideas and blueprints to various companies who are interested. I also get commissioned by various organizations,companies,and people (good ones) to create things for them. My income is quite healthy at the moment.

Dr.Wily,on the otherhand,has had lady luck play footsie with him with her bare feet. Wily has won many many lotteries,including the Global Lottery. And he continues to win lotteries,though nowadays I think he rigs them in his favor. Yes,That's how he is able to afford his various schemes and robots.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
What was Albert Wily like in the early years,when you 2 were friends?

RS Dr.Light: He was a loner and a serious hard worker,but a nice guy overall. He was my best friend. He and his work were always looked down upon by our peers and superiors in both high school and collage. I guess that's what drove him to madness. *sighs* Maybe if I hadn't told him that his programming was flawed,he might've still been sane...and still my friend.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why Plasma Power?

RS Dr.Light: I wanted a very powerful and stable power input/output for my creations. And yes Plasma Is stronger than Solar.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it true that Android 17 was supposed to be female,making both artificial humans ladies?

RS Dr.Light: Well According to what I have read and heard,Android 17 and Android 18 were going to both have the same voice. And the voice would sound female. This is just a rumor and it may or may not be true,only Akira Toriyama knows for sure. However,I can assure you that in all official material,Android 17 is 100% Male.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
How do the Son Family pay for living expenses?

RS Dr.Light: Well,at first The Ox King was supporting them. Goku,supported his family with the prize money he won at the 23rd Tenkaichi Budoukai Tournament. Later on,Hercule Satan Supported them for a bit,as a reward for keeping his weakness a secret. Chi-Chi then forced Goku to find work. He couldn't,so he became a vegetable farmer,selling quality veggies at a reasonable price. Goku is not too crazy about the work though,he'd rather train instead.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
What's up with Tien Shinhan's 3rd eye? Is He some sort of Alien or something?

RS Dr.Light: There are 2 likely reasons for that 3rd eye. The first is that he achieved it through extreme meditation and mental training. He be came so enlightened,he grew a 3rd eye. The second reason is that he really is an alien and was born with said eye. Well,either that or he's a special breed of Earth human.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who's the greater inventor,You or Bulma Brief?

RS Dr.Light: I say we are both the greatest at our own individual fields. Bulma's capsule creations are amazing and I'm sure she'd find my Robot Masters and Advanced Androids astonishing as well. I would love to meet her and exchange ideas.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Did you play any Arcade games when you were younger?

RS Dr.Light: Sometimes. Though,I'd usually go for the pure challenge. Take on other gamers,who would provide a great challenge. I do love competition. My favorite games were fighting titles like Street Fighter Alpha 3.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do You think Capcom will make another title in their Mega Man "Power" Arcade series?

RS Dr.Light: Oh,I Wish. A 3rd entry would be a perfect way to say "I Love You" to the Mega Man fans.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can Legends and EXE make a comeback?

RS Dr.Light: Oh,I believe that they can. They have too much fan support to just die off.

Well that's all for now. Keep sending those questions.

Ask Ruby-Spears Dr.Light

In an Alternate Universe,in the year 20XX The brilliant roboticist Dr.Thomas Light began answering fan questions in his spare time. He'll answer any question,no matter how trivial or silly. He especially loves Dragon Ball related questions.

RS Dr.Light: I am Dr. Thomas Light,well not the same one you know of,but an alternative universe version. Ask me anything and I will answer it to the best of my abilities.
----------------------------------------------------
I hear that Eddie is not the only one of his kind. Is that true?

RS Dr.Light: Oh,it is. Eddie is a member of my Fliptop Series. Eddie is an S model (s for small),used for carrying drinks and snacks,and sometimes sandwiches. Very Ideal for picknicking. Eddie's serial number is FT-S1. I also made other sized models besides the S model. I created 3 more models for this line. The M models (n for medium size) used for carrying lugague and bigger objects. The L models (l for large),which are used to carry bigger and heavier objects. And The Giant XL models,used to carry furnature. The XL models were all bought by the various moving companies throught the world.
--------------------------------------------
What were the original personalities of the 1st 6 Robot Masters? 

RS Dr.Light: Ah,the original personalities of Wily's 1 Unit. Let's see....Cutman was supposed to be humorist with maturity and intellect. When Wily reprogramed Cutman,he turned him into a baffoon with a fetish for bad puns. Gutsman was supposed to be a hardworking tough guy with a heart of silver and gold. After the reprogramming,Gutsman became a nasty,and dull-witted,bully.

Iceman was supposed to be opinionated,but respected the opinions of others,and nevertheless worked with others when needed. But after Wily,Iceman was a loudmouthed egotistical jerk,who hates working with others.

Bombman was supposed to be a funloving,but respectful guy. Who only used his bombs for demolition only. After Wily though,he became a bombing fiend,who shows great delight in blowing anything up. Fireman's supposed original personality was mostly the same as his current one. Only he talked more and was a good robot.

Finally we come to Elecman. He was supposed to have a more serious personality,with intellegence and an awesome sense of duty. Wily made him into a loud nut who likes to zap things. *sigh* I hate Albert for what he's done to my robots.
------------------------------------------------------------
I just bought some Dragon Ball music CD's and one artist that appeared a lot. His name is Hironobu Kageyama. What's makes him so special,besides his talent?

RS Dr.Light: Hironobu Kageyama is a very special man,indeed. He is a very famous artist who often times worked with Toei. Besides Dragon Ball,Kageyama also preformed Super Sentai theme songs. He can also sing in english. What an amazing man. If any of you have a chance to listen to him,by all means do so. He's a living legend in Japanese Music.
---------------------------------------
What's up with those marks on Krillin's head?

RS Dr.Light: Those? Those are called Moxibustion Burns,something Shoalin Monks do as a ritual. I am no expert in the Shaolin practices,but I Do know that Shaolin Monks always shave their heads. What?! Don't tell me you thought Krillin was naturally bald. Ha Ha Ha.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does Capcom Have Contempt For Your Universe?

RS Dr.Light: *sighs* It would seem so. None of our characters seem to get invited to the Capcom' VS Games. Our series is being ignored. I would blame this Universes previous existence for the hate,however that would be the cheap and easy way. Yes,the Universe I'm currently inhabiting Is infact a Rebooted Universe. I'll speak more about it some other time.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Why did you name Mega's canine buddy Rush? What Significance does that name have anyway?

RS Dr.Light: The name Rush,in reality,is an acronim. It stands for: Robotic Utility Support Hound. Even though,I have developed other robotic dogs (as well as other pets),Rush is one of a kind.....in more ways than one.
-------------------------------------------------------
Out of all the names you could've named Rock's "Hero Identity",Why did you choose Mega Man?

RS Dr.Light: I am ashamed to admit,I named him Mega Man out of spite and pettiness. As a kid I hated Superman and the irritating Anti-hero that he had become. I also hated how lame the Ultraman series was becoming (if you don't know who ultraman is,look him up please). So I wanted to give Rock a name that was superior to theirs. I chose Mega Man. Rock liked the name,so we stuck with it.
--------------------------------------------------------
Which Mega Man fan sites do you like visiting? If you Do visit those kinds of sites.

RS Dr.Light: Of course I visit. The Reploid Research Lavatory is always a favorite. #20 is a great guy and an amazing webmaster. I'm also a longtime fan of Mandy Paugh's Mega Man Homepage,the Oldest Mega Man fanpage out there.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Where can I get my hands on the Various Rockman Soundtracks?

RS Dr.Light: There are 2 ways you can get these. The first being Capcom's official store. Only trouble with that is,it's in Japanese and unless you are extremely proficient in the language,you will be out of luck. The 2nd method is to perchace them on Amazon or EBay. Yes,I'm sure those sites have them in stock.
-----------------------------------------------------------
What is your honest opinion of Mighty no.9?

RS Dr.Light: I honestly think the game has potential to become a classic. As for Beck himself,he will make a fine hero oneday.

That's all the time I have right now. Keep sending those questions.
