Hey, /jp/

Who is/was your childhood hero? Add a comment or reason if you can. This is also a experiment.

Not limited to /jp/ content only.


For me it is Zero from the Megaman X series that I played when I was 10. He is just too cool and when his story started to be properly developed on Megaman X4 I couldn't help but be fascinated and in awe of his awesomeness.

What about you?

Also he was pretty badass.

Didn't really have one. I played MMX aswell but I didn't find Zero to be a badass until he got his saber in the later series. Best secrets of the games had to be the Hadoken in #1 and X gaining the Z-Saber in #3.

Nice. We can use Youmu or Tenshi as Zero and maybe Reimu as X.
