" we nee a simple fight for the finale of the episode" "Should we....Do another cutman fight where his blade cuts a random item that falls on top of him regardless of location?" - Writers probably.
The one time Cutman would have been perfect, cutting the hose around the robo dino, he gloats and says it can't stop the dinobot. Really Cutman. YOUR ONE USE IS TO CUT THINGS AND YOU HAD THE PERFECT CHANCE.
I love how Cutman's scissors bounce off everything and have horrible accuracy, but when Megaman uses it, it cuts through a stone brick wall, a metal door, and a FUCKING AIRPLANE, all while having precise homing technology.
Man, Cutman has the worst luck ever, like how does his rolling cutter miss megaman and hits somthing else like metal man when he was holding the ropes. And megamans rolling cutter is so very accurate IT CAN CUT AN AIRPLANE IN HALF
what makes me sad is Cutman was supposed to be the main hero of the Mega man games since the creator of Megaman Akira Kitamura made Cutman as the hero but they had to change it for some reason and now even in the artwork and the TV shows they're all making fun of cutman
Cutman uses rolling cutter, it's useless. Megaman uses rolling cutter, it plows through a brick wall, tears a hole through a 12-inch thick steel door, then proceeds to slice through the fusilage of an airplane, removing the entire nose and cockpit, and still has enough momentum to follow Cutman into Wily's skull copter, where it does still more damage!! For originally being one of Dr. Light's Robot Master series bots, Cutman really is pathetic in this cartoon. Ahh, the memories! LOL
Props to Dr. Wily for not shutting him down. Cutman literally ruined everything he was involved with, and Wily still felt like he was more useful than harmful. He was wrong, but still.
Which is pretty weird, since there were several "villain of the week" Robot Masters (Crystal Man, Pharaoh Man, and Dark Man come to mind) who came across are far more competent than Cut Man.
that joke was so great.... did you think of it yourself? honestly. That joke was sitting infront of my face the entire time! why didn't I think of that!
You know your incompetence is legendary when: 1. A 5+ minute compilation can be made of your worst moments 2. A guy, who has absolutely no experience using your weapon of choice, steals it and uses it more effectively than you ever have in your entire life.
At some point the incompetence reaches a level where you wonder- is Cutman secretly a double agent? I mean, he screws his own team enough he's gotta have mad skills at talking his way out of trouble, which implies a certain social cunning. Which is the foremost skill any double agent should have. Then you have how potent his weapon is in MegaMan's hands- why is it so nerfed in the hands of the original owner? I don't care how much smarter MM is, Cutman has been practicing with that weapon for years, and it's reasonably unique. The difference should be like a decathlete who goes bowling for the first time vs. the schmuck who has been in a neighborhood league for a decade- the schmuck should still win the first game, or at least nor embarrass himself horribly. In fact, the Cutman weapon in the hands of MegaMan is so strong, that the obvious winning strategy is to target Cutman first, (since Cutman is so easily defeated anyways) grab his weapon, and shred Wiley's base in seconds. So why doesn't he? Because to do so more than once or twice risks getting Cutman expelled from Wiley's team, the same reason in WW2 that the Brits and Americans didn't overuse intelligence gained from cracking Germany's Enigma codes. In conclusion, I give you the wisdom of Mr T.- "It takes a smart guy to play dumb."
It might be that given cutmans original purpose, there may be dozens of safeguards in his programming preventing him from harming others that Wily cannot remove thus preventing Curran from realistically harming people. I mean, given his purpose as a commercial bot, it would have been crucial to ensure some mad mechanic didn't just unleash him in town with a flip of a switch
Pumpkin Row Cutman fails so much that it makes his weapon actually stupid. It should be a homing device of terror, but Cutface has such bad luck that the shots go friendly fire.
I like how the strength of cut man’s cutters are so inconsistent. In one scene they cut a phone pole in half with no signs of stopping, but then in the next scene, they get stopped by slightly high water pressure.
The "Rock beat Scissors" actually it's a recurring joke in Rockman Megamix. Sadly that joke didn't translated into Archie because of character's rename.
I absolutely love that when Megaman uses Cutman's weapon, it's nigh unstoppable. this show was weird yes, but it was smart with its comedy in certain places.
He said it again because he thought nobody heard it the first time and he was really proud of that line. Yes, we heard you the first time and it wasnt that good. Sorry if that cuts a bit deep, but you're not that sharp.
Cutman: Scissors only go one direction and can't cut through any hard object. Megaman using Cutmans power: Scissors chase the target and cuts through an entire airplane.
According to cannon sources, the Rolling Cutter is a weapon with the ability to cut through pretty much anything. It’s made of the same thing as Metal Man’s blades (literally one of the most lethal weapons in gaming history due to its number of uses without refilling it, it’s firing speed and near constantly immense damage output). That material being Ceratanium. This is also what Megaman’s armor is Made of, and as the classic series’ core games have shown, is so durable and strong that it enables him to survive the gravity of Jupiter, the heat of Atomic Fire, (which is hotter then the surface of the sun), the crushing depths of the ocean basin, and the weight exerted by Wily’s castle in MM9 I believe it was. Most airplanes are made of an Aluminum alloy to both reduce weight and cost to manufacture and this makes it far far more malleable and soft than the Ceratanium that the Rolling Cutter is made of. The hulls of most commercial planes is also relatively thin so...
Let me get this straight when cutman uses his weapon it get deflected off or dodged easy as hell (it was litterally deflected by shooting screws at it) but when megaman copies the EXACT same weapon it cuts through anything and homes in on it's target to ensure it never misses. Megaman's best feature was the build in Game Genie Dr. Light installed into him apparently...
No see, Cut Man is incompetent. He can't even use the weapon he was programmed to use right, apparently. When Mega Man uses it he uses it to its fullest and turns it into a homing blade of death, only rubbing it into him further.
I love that when Rock has it, the useless guy’s weapon becomes a seeker missile from hell. It means Cutman’s weapon isn’t bad, the guy really is just that incompetent
1:50 could be seen as a perfect example of how much Wily loves his robots. Instead of leaving Cut Man behind to deal with the blade alone, he calls for him and risks getting hurt by the blade himself.
Sounds like bullshit. Cutman was from Megaman 1, and Woodman from 2. Maybe I'm in the wrong here, and it's possible to fight Cutman with the Leaf Shield in Wily Wars, the fighting games, or Megaman 8 Saturn?
The instant megs gets ahold of cutman's weapon it goes from a terribly aimed wet piece of spaghetti to an actual lightsaber in terms of cuttin capability
2:47 I love it when heroes have had enough of a villain’s shit and just interrupt them with a takedown. Cut man “Come on, he can’t take-“ Mega man *Bang*
The smart Robot Masters in this show do that too. Pharaoh Man's reaction to Mega Man acquiring his weapon is to punch him in the mouth while he says "now I've got your power!" because it's a vulnerability that no one else seems to recognize.
For some reason, I love that they pronounce it "Cutm'n" like a last name instead of "Cut-Man." "Howdy, the name's Hezekiah Cutman. Say yer prayers, Megaman."
4:22 I did not expect to see this level of realistic robot brutality on a children's cartoon. I mean that is a look of genuine fear on his face as he's crushed to pieces by a lamppost.
That happened *ALL THE TIME* in this show. Robot Masters get smashed to outright pieces in almost every episode (hell, Snake Man's weapon directly attacks the joints of whichever poor bot-bastard it hits), and that's not even counting things like Crystal Man getting his arm blown off or that time Roll vacuums off another robot's face.
Corey's got a good point now that he mentions it. After hearing that, I'm wondering how it would've sounded if Robin Williams played Cutman, judging from his own impersonation of Peter Lorre from one part in Aladdin where the genie is telling him how he can't bring people back from the dead.
2:53 As someone who has never seen this show, the way Proto runs in out of nowhere and grabs the girl with that creepy change in music feels like a WHOLE different situation than it actually is 😅 Made worse by the dialogue 😂
It would work if he were addressing Paper Mario, but seeing as the lumberjack robot is addressing a metal man and not a paper one, that threat just doesn't work.
It makes sense when you realize that Cut Man is voiced by Terry Klassen, the original voice of Krillin, and Mega Man is voiced by Ian Corlett, the original voice of Goku. You can practically see the "Cut Man Owned" counter rise...
Alex BlueCyndaquil Before you cut me off and move on, hear me out. It’s more likely the same case as Metal Sonic’s data scan ability from sonic heroes. Mega’s Variable Weapon System scans the data from enemies and enables him to Utilize their skill/power to the same extent as if he had it his whole life.
A good theory I heard. Cutman wasn't designed by Willy. He was taken by him, Cutman himself is a commercial robot designed to cut trees. Megaman was designed to fight. Who would win, a Medieval Knight who never used an a wood cutting axe, but armed with one. Or a Lumberjack armed with the same wood cutting axe?
It's because at the time, and probably even today, American publishers thought that a childish design in video games won't appeal to an American audience, and instead, made the designs have more superhero-like designs like Superman. Hence why the boxart for a lot of the Mega Man games in the U.S are bad.
Yes, I laughed at this, Cutman is more incompetent than Commander Cobra, how is that possible? The worst of this is that he was created to help humanity.
Well, technically, he's the most competent person in this show. He always did what he was made for: *_Helping Humanity._* How many times did Cutman single-handily defeat all of his "allies?" He's always been helping Megaman from the other side.
I mean, OG Megaman is supposed to be a ten year-old boy, so him sounding like a young adult would be weird. X has no such excuse because he's supposed to be a grown man.
