Guts Man (ガッツマン) is a Robot Master who first appeared in the original Mega Man. He is an industrial robot who was built by Dr. Light to work in construction, but he was stolen by Dr. Wily and reprogrammed for evil. Guts Man has since had many appearances throughout the Classic era, as both a villain and a friend to Mega Man.

In the Games

Mega Man

Sprites in Mega Man
and The Wily Wars.

In Mega Man, and its port in The Wily Wars, Guts Man is one of the six Robot Masters on the Stage Select screen. He is fought in Guts Man Stage. He was created by Dr. Light for construction and land development, before being kidnapped and reprogrammed by Dr. Wily. His serial number is DLN-004.[2]

Guts Man fights by first jumping to cause tremors. This also causes a boulder to fall from the ceiling, which he then lifts and throws, making it to burst into chunks of rock on impact. Defeating him unlocks his Special Weapon, the Super Arm. His weakness is the Hyper Bomb. A boss attack rematch with Guts Man later occurs in Wily Stage 4.

Mega Man 7

By the time of Mega Man 7, Guts Man has been deactivated and is stored in a Robot Museum. Dr. Wily attacks the facility and steals him with his Wily Capsule, just before Mega Man can stop him. In Wily Castle 2, an upgraded form called Guts Man G is fought as a boss.

Guts Man also makes a cameo appearance alongside Cut Man on a newspaper in the game's opening.

Mega Man: The Power Battle & The Power Fighters

Sprites in The Power Battle
and Battle & Fighters.

In Mega Man: The Power Battle, Guts Man is one of the six Robot Masters on the Stage Select screen of the "Mega Man 1~2" course. He was rebuilt by Dr. Wily to take over the world again.[3] He fights by throwing boulders, like in his original appearance, and also has a new dash attack. His Special Weapon is Super Arm, and his weakness is Crash Bomber instead of Hyper Bomb.

In Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters, Cut Man is one of the six Robot Masters on the Stage Select screen of the "Search for Wily" story. He was again rebuilt by Dr. Wily to fight Mega Man.[3] He fights the same as in the previous title, though he can also summon Metalls to fight with him. His Special Weapon is still Super Arm, and this time his weakness is Napalm Bomb.

Mega Man: Battle & Chase

Render in Battle & Chase.

In Mega Man: Battle & Chase, Guts Man is a playable racer. He enters the Battle & Chase competition with his vehicle, the Wild Arms, planning to use the prize money to buy an endless supply of Energy Tanks. In his ending, he commemorates his victory with a passionate karaoke song, but no one enjoys his singing, so he comically falls into his pile of Energy Tanks.

Super Adventure Rockman

In Super Adventure Rockman, Guts Man has reformed as an ally and now works for Dr. Light. He and the other five DLN robots follow Mega Man to assist his mission in the Lanfront Ruins.

Guts Man is the second to rendezvous with Mega Man, giving him a Data Card with a Special Weapon before splitting up again. From this point on, Guts Man can appear to save Mega Man and give the player another chance if they lose during the battles with Bubble Man or Heat Man. He and the other DLN also appear in the game's ending.

Mega Man Powered Up

Render from Powered Up.

In the remake Mega Man Powered Up, Guts Man plays largely the same role as in the original Mega Man. He was created for land development, using his massive strength to move heavy things around. Rock witnesses his kidnapping by Dr. Wily, alongside the other bosses, before setting out to stop him.

When faced in Guts Man Stage, Guts Man is a stubborn and hard-working robot who has been reprogrammed to believe that he is the boss of everyone else. He fights the same as in the original game, though in New Style he is weak to Time Slow instead of Hyper Bomb. He yields Super Arm upon his defeat.

If the player defeats him using the Mega Buster in New Style, Guts Man is unlocked as a playable character. He uses the Super Arm as his main attack, with the added bonus that he can spawn blocks to throw from anywhere, and he also has the unique ability to break certain blocks by jumping into or onto them.
