Glad I could help with this! Very excited to see the next parts!
I couldn't have done it without you, man. Thanks again for all your help! I'll try to have at least Part 2 out some time mid-June. Probably taking a short break before returning to work on this behemoth.

I actually despise Video Man now
12:01 "Ever get tired of your navi customizer programs taking up too much space?"
This feels like an ad placement, and I love it!
I never understood the food change thing in localization. Its food, a universal thing we can all relate to, so why the need to change what they are? The whole "American children wouldn't understand what a rice ball is because rice balls aren't as common in America as they are in Japan" thing is such a stupid concept to me, because I doubt a child would hear "rice ball" and be like "what is a rice ball? I don't understand. I hate this show now cuz I don't know what a rice ball is." No, they'd hear rice ball either before or after they see a character eat it and would IMMEADIETLY know it's a type of food, just because the kid has never tried one doesn't mean anything, if anything it would make the child curious and want to try it because they see the character eat it and see how much they enjoy it. Kinda like the concept of when a kid sees a commercial for a toy and the kids in the commercial are having fun, so the kid wants to have that fun too.
This. Exactly this.
I think the reason this is so widespread is because it *started* during an extremely xenophobic part of American history. It’s less “children won’t understand and they’ll hate it” and more “we can’t have our CHILDREN becoming more interested in JAPANESE culture than OURS,” and it’s…not great, but it stuck around as just “we do this because it’s what we do” for a long time after that period wore off.
Hence the famous Pokémon “These jelly doughnuts are delicious!”
Yeah, it was always strange. The only company I understand was 4kids, and the inly reason was because they said it was there goal to Americanized anime.
I happened the early 2000 the practice die out overtime
that and there isnt a reason to think kids never ate or had of any kind of rice before. so the name would just be literal to kids even if they might wonder why they are triangles and not round. its like you said there is no justifiable reason for the change it wont make them hate it. really kids wouldnt care about it a passing thought at most.
Not going to lie it's nice to hear someone talk about battle network and not hate 4
It's definitely got its rough moments, but I really think that there's more pros than cons.
Double Souls, several great boss designs like Laserman, Burnerman.EXE, and Videoman, not to mention the Boktai Crossover, and one thing the other games lacked: New Game Plus. One thing I don't like about so many RPGs is that if you wanna start over, you start ALL over. BN4, you can replay the story as much as you want and keep all your goodies. It wasn't perfect, because missing some chips will put you behind in PA Memo completion, and of course the localization was atrocious, but still, BN4 gets way, WAY too much hate.
I'm glad the spelling and grammar mistakes were mentioned for bn4. My brother and I had a lot of laughs with those.
IceMan's "Freeze Boomer!" feels like it has the same connotation as MegaMan 7's "Freeze Cracker!"
Neither can rival the sheer power of the N bomb from Megaman 5
Considering the school that Mr Match ends up working for has both a teacher and the principal of the school both working for the revived WWW, it's really not surprising that he managed to get a job.
It seems more surprising that he wasnt involved with any of the villains in said game tbh xD
I seriously thought he was the one behind blastman at the first time
Isn't www known for going after traders? I'll be honest, I always throught he just happen to be caught up in their scheme in that game lol
Also kinda interesting that the only 2 times hes not being evil (BN2 and BN6), is when hes using HeatMan.
Split purrsonality purrhaps?
@@masterdarklink1 or maybe heatman brings out the best of him
Something to point out, Legends and Battle Network absolutely do not take place in the same universe. There's two main timelines in the Megaman franchise, you could say this is the "good" and "bad" timelines. With one timeline ending with the destruction of humanity, and another with humanity prospering. The "bad" timeline goes as so: Classic Megaman -> Megaman X -> Fairy Wars -> Megaman Zero -> Megaman ZX -> Megaman Legends. The "good" timeline is Megaman Battle Network and Megaman Star Force.
"Fairy Wars"
Even the diverging timeline theory could be wrong too. Since beyond the implication the evil energy in both series are one and the same, and there being a Doctor Wily and Doctor Light, there is not much tying the two timelines. They could be related obviously but the divergence is by no means Light choosing to be a programmer instead of a roboticist.
The megaman classic onward storyline is derived from the belief in the 80s that robots and the like would become the dominant technology in the world. The battle network and starforce storyline is based on the internet and communications becoming the dominant technology in reality.
@@thomasalvarenga2839 The divergence is whether or not Dr. Light gets laid.
/j
Humanity isn't destroyed, though. They evolve with the help of technology. Carbons are no less human than Doctor Light.
About Crashman.EXE, the fan MMBN continuation project called MMBN Chrono X are planning to feature him in their story! I think they already showed off his design as well :)
The irony about the change between Footman and Gridman was that THERE is a Tokusatsu/ anime character call Gridman and that character is also from the digital world.
Anyone else just now finding this after the reveal for the Legacy Collection?
I've been getting a ton of MMBN content for the past few days lol
52:37 Honestly it's actually amazing how hard 4kids went with censoring Barrel Dragon (mind, this redesign was actually Upper Deck's doing, a lot of cards got censored (or given dumb and sometimes horribly inconsistent renames like with Diamond Dragon being renamed Hyozanryu for some reason, even though Sapphire and Emerald were named Luster Dragon and Luster Dragon #2 respectively) before they hit the anime). I mean, they could have just made it laser shooting and called it a day but nope, they went _all out_ with the glowy special effects.
Why does this have so lil views and likes?! this is awesome!
its so nice that theres still content being made for the exe series. it is my favourite megaman
You might call this an iceberg, but for a good portion of my life, it was the air I breathed
Patch is also an internet pun
He's named for a Network Patch
Now I'm ready for Battle Network Legacy Collection
Great work on this iceberg!
If I had to adopt MMBN 5 I would have two teams of Net saviors. One brought together by Lan and Chad made out of there friends. And Baryl forms the other out of professionals.
Yeah, that made Team Protoman feel like a more genuine experience.
Searchman "Am I a joke to you?"
Yes yes you are
no no you not and yes this is me but from a different account
We can't wait to see the future part and more obscure and possibly unknown facts of the Battle Network series
1:02:24 The manga can reference Mu because it's an old idea that comes from the real world. It's the name of a hypothetical lost continent just like Atlantis. It was first mentioned in the 19th century by a man named Augustus Le Plongeon and has gone on to become basically a second Atlantis in pop culture.
I imagine it's along the same veins as Laputa, which has often been described as a giant floating city in other various works, like Gulliver's Travels, and Castle in the Sky.
@@FlashingBladesProductions Also commonly identified with Lemuria, yet another lost continent. Lemuria was first a scientific hypothesis that there was a continent linking India and Madagascar (because Lemur fossils are found in both places, but not in the Middle East or mainland Africa), and was later appropriated by occultists and mystics, drawn into their fanciful myths about ancient civilisation and human origins.
I have an idea about those 3D models that are in Starforce. The developers may have toyed with the idea of making Starforce completely 3D. Then they made models of some things from Battle Network to see if it would work. For whatever reason it didn't and they went with the classic 2D overhead.
Either that or, depending on when they were developed, they were testing for that Rockman EXE that's kinda a platformer and fake 3D, the one with Zero.
On the Duel Masters crossover: from what I know, Duel Masters is still very popular and very much played in Japan, even though it died completely everywhere else in the world, and it has a large number of other crossovers with other franchises.
As I play a lot of Magic the Gathering, I know there are actually a rather large number of Duel Masters versions of MtG characters and cards, and there has even been an (illegal to play) Duel Masters card made in MtG named Nira, Hellkite Duelist (I say illegal to play because it was a one-of-a-kind promotional card made specifically as an employee reward and given to that one employee, known as a "Heroes of the Realm" card, with a different card back)
In a way duel masters took over Magic’s popularity in Japan. In comparison Magic is probably on the bottom ten in popular card games in Japan, with duel monsters, Yugioh and Pokémon fighting for the top
Personal headcanon: Synchro Chips are made of biometal (or this universe’s equivalent) to allow for cross fusion, since the chips have a similar design on it to unrefined Model W pieces, and cross fusion is very similar to R.O.C.K On/ Megamerging, requiring a special synergy to utilize it, with Biometals requiring a biolink to a user.
I know this is a headcanon but I’ll put in my thoughts on this compared to canon. Model W is made from pieces of Ragnarok fused with Dr Weil’s data since his brain was digitized so he wouldn’t forget his crimes which was later modified by Master Albert and spread around the world to absorb anguish and suffering caused by maverick raids and suffering while Biometals are reverse engineered from this thus have the same drawback of needing a user who could use model W thus the users have the capacity to be malicious or benevolent. Synchro chips as far as we know are not made from the spirit of a person infused in metal… however with the netnavis being there we have a person to fuse their abilities with. The differences between the 2 are that there’s no biological data needs for the Synchro chip users and Biometals don’t need a dimensional area.
I personally had a headcanon once upon a time that the amount of technology fused with nature formed a sort of permeated dimensional area around the world to allow Biometals to work but that’s just an old headcanon
I'm really happy to contribute in the Iceberg!
Thanks for the credit and wow.
That's an extensive iceberg and the facts are well explained.
Take your time on the next videos and have a nice day/night!
PD: Great, Now I want to draw Lord Gospel as a V-Tuber due to that manga fact. That realization/idea is blursed and I like it.
Sean had to do something for money after Gospel was dissolved, hahaha.
@@FlashingBladesProductions Good point! Haha!
To be honest, his Lord Gospel outfit is really cool. So better take advantage of that.
I am sincerely happy for helping! Can't wait for the next parts!
Thank YOU for your previous contributions! I'm glad that the Battle Network community can be this tight-knit.
18:11 - Side note, Bass XX is actually canon to 4.5. Just retroactively. In the Rockman EXE 15th Arrange (aka, a greatest hits of Battle Network remixes to celebrate the franchise’s fifteenth year) there’s a medley of the three boss themes in 4.5: Real Operation, the songs are bridged by an announcer narrating over an ongoing Net Battle tourney (presumably the Under Tournament from the post-game for reasons that will be soon apparent). Most prominently, the announcer declares that the finals opponent is Bass XX. No ambiguity, name dropped the XX and everything.
This was a great video and I'm super happy a collection of these games is coming to the Switch. Gotta love when your childhood games get brought back into the limelight in a good way.
Great work! Can't wait to see the next two parts!
Also, there at the bottom... "LOL Network Rockman Bastard EXE"? Do I even WANT to know?
All in due time, friendo.
I came across your channel when I found some Iceberg videos on videogames.
I have long since departed with my time with videogames, moving on with voiceover talents, making sure that my voice becomes THE Event Horizon.
However, out of all of the dozens of videogames that I have played, throughout my life, it all began with Megaman Battle Network 3 Blue Version, which was given to me by my one cousin, as he already had another copy of MMBN 3 Blue Version.
After playing through all of the games, becoming a huge fan of this series, as well as my first real experience with Megaman, your Iceberg and Megaman Battle Network videos have become a graceful time of reprieve in my current life, while I tirelessly work hand over first to make sure that my talents are recognized, through all corners and aspects of our observable universe.
Thank you so much for your time, FlashingBlades, you have earned yourself a new subscriber, have a super duper week!
By the way, I really like how you mentioned "Rate," comment, and subscribe, like how when RUclips used to have an actual rating system out of 5 stars, years ago.
Always The Best,
Eric Bezuhly
This is an amazing video. I can tell you worked so hard to collect all this data
In the manga, although they don't mention Hub, Miyu identifies MegaMan as a Navi with a human soul. So that story detail is definitely still supposed to be canon.
Glad to see people talking about these videogame series, good work.
one piece of trivia i can say is that possibly, Gow was originally intended to appear in Battle Network 1, since his art was shown in japanese magazines, but unlike the other characters, his name was listed as "? ? ? ?". presumably just saying his name would have been spoileriffic in nature, though i kind of wonder if his original name was supposed to be Rush?
I have a source of the image. also SPOILERS for battle network 1+
i could honestly see them digging out any old remnants of BN's plots that never got used before 4, since that game was arguably made when the BN story as a whole were resolved after 3, maybe they'd use what was left for 5/6?.
i'd only say that his name would be Rush, since revealing a Dog to be robotic or cloned memories from a real dog placed inside a mobile machine would be more of a progressive reveal of Megaman actually being Hub be far more believable, instead of being a unexpected info dump near the end of 1. it'd certainly be more believable that an animal's mind would be more comprehensible than a Human's, which give Yuichiro the idea to turn Hub into a netnavi. Dr Wily even had chairs to send human minds into the internet, so it doesn't seem that far of a stretch, might even make more sense since Bass is chronologically as old as Alpha, possibly when Tadashi was still alive. (since he'd have to implant the room inside Alpha's coding).
also, unless the names were directly mentioned within the context of the games, technically Rush (the Mole-like virus) technically got named in Battle Network 2? (as that was when enemy names were displayed, during chip selection). unsure if his design originally being scrapped from Legends 2 was common knowledge, or if it was only stated as such when the Mega Man Battle Network Complete Works book came out.
Despite me not knowing much about the Battle network series. The iceberg was really interesting and got me hooked around the later entries. Can’t wait for part two.
How did I miss the upload of this video. It's fun to see all the entries that made it in overall. Very nice project!
Not sure, friendo. Thanks for your contributions! Gonna resume working on part 2 this week. Needed to take a small break after part 1.
32:42 I believe the joke was "yeah I already knew" because that seemed to be a theme for this era and kind of anime. The one time where one of these shows actually focused on the joke was the Metabots anime
53:49 You're right about 4kids being an improvement. All of the Shredders in TMNT 2003 except for the 80s and Mirage Comics versions were not human (possibly to appease network censors for what I am about to say) and had on-screen deaths, with Cyber Shredder's death being particularly brutal.
2003 is lit my only gripe with it is that 2012 and 2003 never got a crossouver
@27:35
In regards to Legends references, the sound made when shooting viruses/Navis with your basic Buster is the same sound that is made in Legends when shooting foes with the Buster. I guess this too could be attributed due to the Legends dev team also working on Battle Network
Keep up with the good work
I will always love the Battle Network Series and the NT Warrior Series
Oh hey. I was planning on making a big informative Let's Play of this series, so this information is handy to know!
I'd love to see it!
Great video. Makes me extra hype for the Battle Network Legacy Collection
I'm gonna watch this when I have the time in a bit, but I just want you to know how ecstatic it makes me to see people acknowledge the Boktai Crossover content. Both series easily place in my top 5, but I seldom find other people that know Boktai even exists.
And a bit of a fun pre-emptive fact: the Crossover content in Boktai 2 is where arguably the most powerful armor comes from. The Protoman armor increased attack speed by a relatively absurd degree and it's only real competition was the armor that prevented weapon durability from dropping. Since dodging attacks to avoid hitstun is normal, it usually comes down to convenience vs speed.
Of course! I love Boktai. I've always wanted to do some videos on it, but haven't really made time to yet. Too many other projects. Like most Americans, I found out about Boktai BECAUSE of Battle Network, so the Crossover has a special place in my heart.
Never thought I'd see MMBN iceberg soo detailed. Great job on that! All that's left is mmsf iceberg
Thank the viewers of this channel. This chart wouldn't exist without them.
And thank YOU for your kind words. :)
This was a real joy to watch and I'm really looking forwards to the next parts. One thing that I was hoping to potentially see on here that might get answered would be how Bass knows Zero. In Network Transmission with Bass dialog he calls Megaman a scum for defeating Zero. It made me wonder if Bass and Zero had some sort of rivalry against each other off screen. I always just assumed they met before, fought and it ended in a draw between the two, or maybe they had some sort of respect for each other? When I read Bass dialog from that scene I felt it was directed at Megaman as some sort of hatred for defeating Zero. I think I might've been looking into it to deep. Regardless of that, keep up the great work, I'm learning bits and pieces I didn't know about the series.
Thanks so much. Can't wait for part 2.
As a Battle Network fan I am so damn happy to see a battle network collection done and coming next year
14:49 *Maylu with Roll using the Rush Synchro Chip, which bypasses the synchronicity level requirement and dimensional area requirement without using a Dark Synchro Chip and the user gains Rush's Rush Hole ability which can summon or send viruses and enemies to or from the Cyber World.
Not exactly sure why this came up on my feed since I haven't seen anything megaman related in a few years but, I'm glad I came across this, real good watch.
Found it a shame Higsby doesn’t Cross Fuse in the anime.
Great video, can't wait to the next parts, and I wonder if there is a mention in the iceberg to Shanghai.EXE game, it is really great (even if you not into Touhou) and it even has some interesting trivia that nobody asked for in the main games.
not gonna lie, Moltanic Chaos actually sounds pretty badass
Nice!, i will be waiting the rest of the series
Thanks for watching! See you tomorrow.
The legacy collection that just got announced got me excited and watching videos for the series, and now I’m here. Dreams coming true! One step closer to a series reboot?
1:02:26 to be fair, Mu is a real myth just like Atlantis, hence why it's referenced in that panel with it, not a MegaMan invention.
It's just a bit more obscure.
38:40 It's probably been pointed out but shouldn't that be HeatMan and not ToadMan, who's from MM4?
You are correct. I didn't even realize that until now. You are also the first to point it out. Not sure how that happened. I have the image files for Heatman, so I'm not sure why I showed Toadman. Maybe because Toadman is in Battle Network 2?
Can't wait for part 2 & 3
Amazing videos
It's so cool to hear that TREZ has some of the main hackers still around finding new things about the series.
Man I miss those guys.
interesting video. good job on this
Glad to have made it!
This is awesome I love this
Keep the good work
Awesome video!
Seriously, I crack up every time I hear Japanman
about the server growing, in BN2, I'll go and call upon retroactive compatibility of concept, or more immediatelly, it was an early version of Straforce's Noise
the strong radiation of the original server causing a cascade of Noise, which progressivelly accelerated and created more and more servers to be slowly "copy&pasted" as the system required more and more energy to create the copy of bass (and as a side effect, created the portal in the cyberworld that spawned navis and once offscreen bass copies)
54:50 The jelly filled donuts are great!
Yeah... I think Brock would like a word with Lan
27:01 I once spotted a navi strongly resembling either a Servbot or a Lego minifig in the background of the Beast+ portion of the anime chatting it up with a Navi resembling Gym Leader Sabrina from Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green (which is funny because her Pokemon Yellow official art makes her look like a reploid). The same scene also had a navi resembling a RX-75 Guntank from Mobile Suit Gundam. Couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.
I would like a comic series about Battle Network. People like manga, but comics flesh out things better.
I think this have nothing to do with manga or comics but instead it depends on the writer
If you are saying this because of the megaman Archie comics that's because the mad lad Ian flyn is an expert on megaman lore and a fantastic writer
Funny you mention that about "fleshing out". Ryo Takamisaki DID mention in an interview that at least once or twice, he had to change his script or write a new ending to a chapter because Capcom had revealed the plot of the next game, so he had to connect them somehow, like how Megaman gaining Gregar's power kinda comes out of nowhere at the end of the fight with Nebula Grey.
the manga artstyle is nice, before this i hadnt seen much that wasnt on the wiki, which i suppose is the point of stuff like this
The child kidnapping deal happens in other Japanese series as well
Such as a lot of Tokusatsu
Super Sentai and even Kamen Rider
Well thanks. As someone who's pretty deep into the MM/MMX/Z/ZX/Legends timeline and lore, every single attempt I've made to learn about BN just sounded like people speaking gibberish to me lol.
im so glad this video appeared to me after the legacy collection be anounced
55:00 I mean curry is actually an Indian dish, it was introduced to me as such. I never even knew how popular it was in Japan until I was much older.
It’s still dumb especially when most British kids will know what curry is
We need a collection or new game.
I’d like a remake or a remaster with the way the internet of today is. Maybe a direct sequel with Patch and MM Jr?
@@Alex-mo1ib How would it look different?
Same
Same here, but they have to figure out how to do the PVP properly.
Collection incoming! Can’t fcking wait
Glorious Battle Network content. I can never get enough! Keep the legacy collection in your prayers, netbattlers!
Edit: so uh, the legacy collection was announced just a few days ago. Huh. Y'all prayed too hard.
Buy a lotto ticket
I just realized that this series uses the same overworld angle and sprite style as rollercoaster tycoon.
I'm pretty sure Dr. Froid is supposed to be the French prononciation not like Freud (Froid means cold in French)
EXE 4 has a demo mode with the 4.5 system, providing you have the Japanese Gate. I have it myself and performed the Dream Sword (Beta Sword). in combat. It was a hellish ordeal to perform.
With the recent announcement of the MMBN collection on switch next year, I wonder how some add ons will be handled
24:45 Well, Bass was literally the "Auto-Navi" so _of course_ he functions better on his own.
45:04 WHAT THE WHOLE TIME SINCE 2004. There was a loto code the whole time. (poped up Redsun and Bluemoon) It works!!! .
Expectations: Mega man buster right hand cuz its more common.
Reality: only one in internet use right hand lol.
7:52
Yooooo I've typeseted this 🔥🔥🔥
Alright, I'm gonna need that Forte card
BN4 was my introduction to this series.
Amazing video, the iceberg had so much information I’d never know. Although @55:00 I’m sure American kids could handle the inclusion of curry lol. Many different cultures incorporate curry’s.
Yeah, and as for rice balls, who DOESN'T know what rice is? Heck, even Pokemon and Digimon actually called Riceballs by their proper name at LEAST once.
crashman couldnt be a navi because crashing is when a computer stops functioning so he would either be too overpowered or just wouldnt work properly
Do you think you're funny?
Because you are. That was hilarious.
Amazing
Gonna be commenting as I watch. This time around, I’m just bummed we didn’t get much coverage on Battle Story for the Gospel entry. After a big opening attack pulled by AirMan, CutMan, and QuickMan that involved putting Mayl through a deadly gas leak (in lieu of Yai for once), the actually important members of the net mafia went about posing as friendly good samaritans by getting on the good side of Lan and friends as well as being very crucial to helping stop the schemes of a returning (and stronger than ever) WWW/World Three.
As for the Gospel supervirus, it had three encounters with MegaMan where it grew stronger and more adaptable with each subsequent bout before finally perishing in the latter skirmish. In the first encounter, it went on a city rampage but was quickly driven off by the teamwork of MegaMan, GutsMan, Roll, and Glyde. In the second battle, it is aided by MagnetMan and KnightMan against MegaMan and ProtoMan as they run an attack on SciLab (I think…) as Gauss and Pride play their hand and out themselves as bad guys. Pride and KnightMan’s ultimate hesitation to serve the Gospel syndicate’s ends respectively earn them a swift backhand and swift deletion however, which enraged Lan and MegaMan enough to rapidly overwhelm the supervirus with HeatGuts Style. Unfortunately, the desperate efforts of Gauss and MagnetMan stall MegaMan and ProtoMan out, enabling Gospel to evolve into a stronger second form and get away. Gospel is dealt with for good when it launches another attack on SciLab, now demonstrating the abilities to mass produce copies of the Gospel syndicate’s Navis and rapidly corrupt its immediate surroundings. Gospel immediately proves too much for HeatGuts MegaMan (which mopped the floor with its initial form previously) while ProtoMan has to tear through the mass produced Navis on his own. The tide turns when MegaMan achieves the even stronger ElecTeam Style and ProtoMan gets a helping hand from ShadowMan in the final stretch of the endless clone fighting.
Well, that’s the best summary I can give without any Japanese fluency. There’s also the matter of Bass GS, who in this canon is a malicious parasite who lingered within Bass until it assimilated all of his power without detection, pulled a chest-burst routine to escape Bass’ body in his image, and then served as Wily’s top enforcer (sans the also present Alpha) for the Battle Network 3 leg of the manga’s plot. Again, I can’t really tell if Bass GS has any actual affiliation with Gospel like in the games without Japanese fluency but I figured I should bring him up while I was at it.
What the hell is going on in the thumbnail under "anime censorship"??
That's Yai waking up after passing out from Airman gassing her. Unlike in the games, she wasn't actually IN the bath, so she had a gown on.
43:57 Uh not just FireMan and PharaohMan... Aside from GutsMan, ProtoMan and Bass who didn't have their own stages, _all_ the boss navis with classic counterparts got remixes of their stage themes in Network Transmission, though how close they are to the originals seems to vary at times like with for example ElecMan and GravityMan having stage themes that sound more like homages than remixes. They even remixed the Zero Virus Stage 1-3 theme from X5.
43:28 Nice touch and attention to detail by the smash developers
Also, in regards to computer name references, I feel like "Yai" is probably a play on "A.I.".
Thanks to this video, I have now learned that Dark Chips are essentially Navi Narcotics.
WE GOT A COLLECTION COMING BOYS!!!
In the case of Battle Network 4 each tournament would only need a 16 contestant bracket to include all participants which boils down to four fights which also happens to be the number of Navy's that would give you cross soles
50:53 It seems like references to angels and heaven are okay but demons and hell are not. Like in Gravity Falls when Soos' grandmother tells Soos that his grandfather is not in heaven, with a tone of voice that implied he's in hell instead "No... He is not there". Think it's worth noting that most of the demon digimon have their names abbreviated but both Lilithmon and Baalmon had their names censored in the English dub of Xros Wars, Digimon Fusion. The name of Baalmon's reformatted form, Beelzemon remained uncensored as was the case with the one in Tamers.
Course Digimon Fusion also had a lot of other changes of questionable quality. Not least of which was blue laser-shooting Dephutymon as opposed to the one from Adventure and Adventure 02 who went entirely uncensored and this is also dumb because him dropping some of his ammo was actually a plot point. There's also a few poorly localized name changes that ignored the official Bandai localizations (including Lilithmon herself) such as Bastemon to Beastemon instead of Persiamon, the names of Lucemon's Mode Changes being Wild 1st/2nd Mode instead of Chaos Mode (Falldown Mode) and Shadowlord Mode (Satan Mode) and... SlushAngemon... Instead of GuardiAngemon... *_SLUSHAGEMON! IT IS LITERALLY MADE OF SWORDS! SURRASHU WAS CLEARLY SLASH, NOT SLUSH!_*
I have a small theory on "sealed off his moves".
In the anime "Ruroni Kenshin" (Samurai X), the MC breaks the thumbs of an abusive kendo teacher so he can no longer hold a sword and force him to practice a more passive way of fighting.
With mr famous using kendo, maybe he did that, broke off the guy thumbs

The z-saber chip data in exe6 is not a chip, but an attack animation. To activate it, u have to install the megaman zero kaizou (modification) card. It replaces the megaman normal attack into sword, and charge shot into Z-saber.
