You Got GUTS Power.

I dig the the Gainaxish/Yoshinori Kanada vibes I get from this. Like Megaman's silver ribcage.

This Mega Man is not as a cute as his other, more cherished and popular incarnation, but he is finely detailed.

This style, that depicts our beloved blue bomber as a sleeker, thinner, grittier, and mechanical, rather than cute and cuddly does seem to fit with that one mode of thinking that was perpetuated in an issue of Game Informer under the "Top 10 assassins list".

That theory being about how Megaman, when you look at him realistically, is actually a steel hearted, cold and detached assassin android, that just follows orders from his seemingly benevolent creator Dr. Light.

Evidence supporting this being that:

1. Megaman/Rock is a robot, and a robot that was created before the X series where robots gained truly human characteristics like the ability the make decisions for themselves, a sense of right and wrong, a personality etc. Rock is a simple robot that just follows commands not unlike an advance dos program. Megaman's percieved persona is just whatever junk Dr. Light programs into him, Megaman only fights Wily, because Dr. Light told him to do so. Like Bioshock's Andrew Ryan said, a "man chooses a slave obeys"

and

2. From early on up to Megaman 7(or maybe 6...) We never saw Wily's robots attack cities in game like it says in the instruction manual. In game, Megaman is always invading enemy territory. Not defending his hometown, or anyone else's hometown from the robot masters. It's always Megaman teleporting into his target's lair, blasting through target's defenses, killing the target, and teleporting out without a trace. Picture this, Dr. Light would walking up to his shiny blue robot and saying, "Would you kindly invade that construction site and terminate my rival's construction bot please."
