Metal Blade (メタルブレード, Metaruburēdo) is Mega Man's neutral special move. This move involves Mega Man throwing a circular saw blade towards his opponent. The blade can be thrown in 8 different directions, including backwards. Metal Blade can also be caught by the opponent as a throwable item. The blade appears to travel straight until it hits something.
Origin
The Metal Blade was first introduced in Mega Man 2. This move belonged to the Robot Master Metal Man. Metal Man is a red and yellow robot that throws its blades in reaction to where Mega Man is on the battlefield. After defeating Metal Man, Mega Man receives the Metal Blade as a power up. Ironically, when fighting Metal Man again in Dr. Wily's Castle, the Metal Blade functions as a weakness of his, as it will only take one or two shots with the Metal Blade to defeat him.
