Mega Man X

Rocman X centers on a robotic protagonist built with the capacity for autonomous decision making. This capability becomes significant when a new line of robots, modeled after him, begins to malfunction due to a corruptive program.

The core conflict involves containing this widespread malfunction. He is aided in this task by a capable associate, despite the associate's name suggesting otherwise. The narrative foundation is the discovery of the advanced robot by a scientist, which leads directly to the replication and subsequent crisis.
