Soft Vinyl Rockman Toy Announced


Japanese toy maker Electric Toys announced a new addition to their SOFVIPS lineup... Rockman

SOFVIPS is a brand launched in 2020 by Electric Toys that mostly focuses on soft vinyl products based on different characters. So far they have released soft vinyl toys from Chibi Maruko-chan, Tokyo Tribe 2Crayon Shin-chan and the Sonic series.

Beyond the prototype image above, no other details are available at this time. Based on past toys, it's safe to assume a price tag between 6.000 Yen and 8.000 Yen for sizes that go from 10cm to 16cm. There's been some exceptions for over-sized toys too. We'll see.

We can expect images of the painted figure, price and release date to be announced at a later date. In the meantime, you can take a look at their other toys to get a better idea of what to expect from Rockman here!

Capcom Cafe and Rockman EXE Collab Announced

From March 24 to April 27, Capcom Cafe in Ikebukuro and Umeda will be hosting a collaboration event with the Rockman EXE series featuring special themed menus and goods. 

The main visual, which you can see above, was drawn by official Capcom Japan staff. Additional announcements regarding the kind of goods and menu items are forthcoming. 

Judging by the products released in 2018 when Capcom Cafe collaborated with the Rockman series prior to the launch of Mega Man 11, we can probably expect clear files, coasters, stickers and other miscellaneous knick-nacks. 

If you happen to be around Tokyo or Osaka during event, you can reserve your seat(s) at the Capcom Cafe by following the instructions here.

Before the Final Showdown, Rockman X DiVE's ViA Reveals His True Form

ViA has been a mystery since day one; scheming from the shadows and preparing "the player" for a final confrontation. And now, that time is almost upon us.

In a scene from the latest story mode chapters (Chapter 20-4 and 20-5), RiCO and "the player" managed to extract the Robot Destroy Program from ViA. This led to a battle against the "Last Irregular Data", i.e the Sigma Virus. ViA appears before them sporting a brand-new armor and a clearly visible face. He is battle-ready for the final confrontation...

... It remains to be seen if the release of 20-6 will mark the end of the current story arc or the story mode altogether. 

The development team hasn't made an announcement yet when we can expect to go toe to toe with ViA one more time. However, considering there will be no maintenance next week and the current DiVE Armor Iris capsule ends on February 1st, it's safe to assume the last Story Mode chapter (and most likely a playable version of the new ViA) will drop on February 1st.

Let us now what you think of this new revelation in the comments!

Rockman-san Chapters 13 to 19 English Translation Now Available


Since their debut more than a year and a half ago, Rockman-San and Rockman-Chan continue to be among the most read manga in Young Ace UP. And despite that, no publisher has expressed any interest in distributing the comics outside Japan. At least not yet.

But lucky us, our friend Midori has been working hard to translate another batch of chapters in English. This time it's chapter 13 to chapter 19. You can download them here. Chapters 1 to 12 can be found from that link as well if you need to play catch-up.
