The Story of Shigeto Ikehara's Mega Man 3 Manga

Gaijillionare is back with another retrospective on Shigeto Ikehara's charming Mega Man manga adaptation. This time, GTV takes us through the entire Mega Man 3 storyline, which greatly expands on the game's plot. Ikehara's penchant for detail and colorful characterizations make for a truly enjoyable read -- err, summary video.

It's a shame Ikehara's works remain largely relegated to Japan. Few if any publishers have expressed an interest in translating and distributing his manga in English territories. We're very fortunate to have fans who are more than happy to fill the void, though. Be it full-on scanlations or GTV's tributes, Ikehara's Mega Man books live on. 

Don't forget to check out GTV's Mega Man 1 and Mega Man 2 videos too!

  2. This is a mistake. That's "Blues' Resurrection", it's a stroy that happen between "5" and "6". It's a original story, and Ikehara use many boss unadapted like "3" bosses and Enker. It's no a "Mega Man 3" manga.
