==Character Description==
==Origin==
{{cleanup}}
MegaMan.EXE is a character from the ''Mega Man Battle Network'' series of games, an alternate continuity to the "classic" ''Mega Man'' games. In this universe, revered scientist Tadashi Hikari creates several breakthroughs in the world of computer science, and his efforts posthumously create a functioning net society. This causes friction with his former friend and rival [[Dr. Wily]], as his efforts in robotics were ignored in favor of Hikari. Tadashi's grandson, Lan Hikari, is now living in the fruits of this labor. This includes his personal NetNavi, named Mega Man. This is actually Lan's twin brother Hub, who was put on to the data of a NetNavi. Their father, Yuichiro Hikari, was already experimenting with downloading humans directly into the net when Hub contracted a terminal illness known as HBD and died shortly after birth. Literally transporting his soul into a digital file was the only way to save him, which is exactly what happened. Lan and MegaMan look exactly alike, except for their eye color, though this feature later became identical to save MegaMan's life. The two make an amazing duo, seeing as they almost never lose a NetBattle. The two have saved humanity on multiple occasions; they have defeated Dr. Wily, who has come out of hiding to destroy the net society and now calls himself Lord Wily, as well as his son, Dr. Regal, time and time again.

This causes friction with his former friend and rival Dr. Wily, as his efforts in robotics were ignored in favor of Hikari. Tadashi's grandson, Lan Hikari, is now living in the fruits of this labor. This includes his personal NetNavi, named Mega Man. This is actually Lan's twin brother Hub, who was put on to the data of a NetNavi. Their father, Yuichiro Hikari, was already experimenting with downloading humans directly into the net when Hub contracted a terminal illness known as HBD and died shortly after birth. Literally transporting his soul into a digital file was the only way to save him, which is exactly what happened. Lan and MegaMan look exactly alike, except for their eye color, though this feature later became identical to save MegaMan's life. The two make an amazing duo, seeing as they almost never lose a NetBattle.
