Rockman.EXE: The College Years
by Anime Master ZERO » Sun Dec 10, 2006 5:11 pm
I thought that since there was a fanfic section here, I should put up my longest (and most popular) piece of written work. And that piece of written work is none other than Rockman.EXE: The College Years.
History of the Fic
I began writing Rockman.EXE: The College Years in December 2003. It was originally intended for me to chronicle my college experiences. But as things progressed, it began to move away from the original plan until it finally became what it is today. I have used dub names for the most part, but I use the Japanese names depending on whether or not the English ones suck. This fanfic has a total of four seasons, one for each year of university.
Fic Summary
Season 1:
In season 1, we are introduced to the entire EXE cast as teenagers. Lan, Maylu, Dex, and Tory are all 18, Yai is 16 but she's at the same level as the rest of them, Chaud is 19 and in his second year. And also, Sean Obihiro (former Gospel leader) at age 17, joins them with Axl.EXE as his NetNavi. Together, they endure the long process of college at Den University. All the while, everyone experiences various things throughout the year, such as taking part in the university's annual tournament between departments, the Den 500, and Tory even joins a fraternity. Things seem to go smoothly until an evil NetTerrorist organization known as the Dark Nation starts to cause trouble. Lan and MegaMan and all their friends fight valiantly against these menaces, but there is a greater force even stronger than the Dark Nation lurking in the shadows.
Season 2:
Dr. Hikari has created a new robot body for MegaMan, allowing him to finally live life as Lan's twin brother, Hub Hikari. However, a new evil organization known as VILE has appeared. Not relying on operators and NetNavis like all previous organizations, they operate soley on the use of viruses. Commanding these viral forces are three superviruses known as Interface, Venus, and Terabyte, and the mysterious leader of VILE known only as Lord Viron. Trying to keep his identity as MegaMan a secret, Hub finds himself having an even more hectic time than Lan did in freshman year as he fights against evil while trying to attend his classes.
Season 3:
Another threat endangers the net. The Crest of Arcadia grants great power to those who use it, but at a terrible price. Only four individuals have the capabilities to wield its power without danger. They are Waya World Three, Greg Gospel, Nicol Nebula, and Diana Dark Nation; four fanatics of previous evil organizations and their NetNavis: Harpuia, Phantom, Fefnir, and Leviathan. In addition, their leader is a Lan lookalike named Saiba Yami. But that's not all. A great NetBattle tournament is held, gathering NetBattlers from far and wide to DenTech City. It is the great Battle Network Tournament! And what better chance for Saiba and his crew to spread the influence of the Creat of Arcadia than an event that gathers all NetBattlers to one place? Lan and MegaMan find themselves facing another challenge. But unlike their previous enemies, these use the power of light from the Crest of Arcadia.
Season 4: (In Progress)
Season 4 takes on a darker theme. A new organization has appeared, its members representing each of the Seven Deadly Sins. At present, it is only known that they desire to obtain the Seven Heavenly Virtue programs to unlock The Gate. Their plans for the future have yet to be revealed....
I should also warn you that some of the content in season 4 may not be suitable for younger audiences (considering at least that there's a character representing lust).

Take a moment from your day to give your local angst-ridden orphan boy a hug. Preferably before he goes power-hungry and psychotic.
