Recap / Captain N The Game Master S 3 E 6 A Tale Of Two Dogs

Go To

While Dr. Wright and Dr. Wily collaborate on a giant unstoppable robot to promote peace, Kevin and Mega Man dispute who has the cooler dog: Duke, or Mega Man's new robo-dog Rush.

Based on Mega Man 3.


Tropes:

  • Animal Jingoism: Duke chases off Top Man's robot cat because of the usual cartoon dynamic.
  • Bee Afraid: Dr. Wily's defeated when a beehive falls into the cockpit of his stolen robot. And not just bees, robo bees!
  • Cats Are Mean: Mega Man and Captain N get attacked by Top Man's giant robot cat from the game.
  • Curb-Stomp Battle: Top Man gets beaten in one shot. In fact, it's unclear if Top Man knew Mega Man and Captain N were even there, since all he does is spin in one place until he gets killed.
  • Humongous Mecha: The peackeeping robot.
  • In Medias Res: The episode begins with Kevin and Mega Man having already defeated all the Robot Masters except Top Man.
  • Living Structure Monster: Skull Castle appears to be one, with how it sneezes out the N Team.
  • Power Copying: Somewhat incredibly, despite being the original Trope Namer, this is the only episode of the show where Mega Man uses weapons he got from beating boss robots. Granted, because the episodes in this season are so short, he isn't shown beating those enemies and you have to have played Mega Man 3 yourself to know that's the case.
  • Robot Dog: Rush.
  • Rocket Punch: Mega Man uses Hard Man's weapon to launch his fist and knock out Top Man.
  • You Don't Look Like You: It's still a Humongous Mecha, but Gamma's design was simplified significantly to something the animation team for this season could actually handle.
