How Gunvolt lost its muse, literally and figuratively

So, if you're a Mega Man fan, you've probably at least heard of the Azure Striker: Gunvolt series, which is a spiritual successor to Mega Man Zero by the developer of those games, Inti Creates. The gameplay is fairly well-received, as a score attack focused side scroller with a speed running mode. The narrative, on the other hand, has often been decried as a rehash of Mega Man Zero, except replace "androids" with "psychics".

This take, I feel, is at least partly based on those who had played the game when it first come out and no longer cared about it, because if you had played the initial release you absolutely would have left with that impression. The thing is, that's because the original localization bastardized the whole thing. It was a very unfaithful translation which also cut out a lot of dialogue, namely the stage chatter and, most importantly, the slice of life snippets that could be accessed from the stage select menu. This meant that the primary theme of the game was lost.

In the original localization, the fact that you had to collect jewels for Joule in order to get the true ending seemed like a silly pun, but it's not just that. The game starts with Gunvolt rescuing and adopting her for a reason. She is the spiritual center of the game, not merely a gameplay mechanic to justify how Gunvolt can come back back to life powered up on defeat. Those slice of life snippets helped build up Gunvolt's relationship with Joule. The jewels you collected for her were used to create a necklace that blocked a bullet, allowing Joule to bring Gunvolt back when all seemed lost. This is because everything Gunvolt does is to protect Joule. She is his muse. The "humans vs. Adepts" plot is ultimately just a framework for this very relationship-focused narrative, which is quite different from Mega Man Zero. Zero had relationships, true, but the narrative was very much about the human-Reploid conflict and the role Zero played in it.

The sequel continued this. Joule is now just a ghost, and Gunvolt is hung up on this, but still inspired by her to keep pushing forward. Of course, the sequel also made Gunvolt's rival Copen playable. Copen actually has a muse of his own: his biological sister, Mytyl. In the ending, it's revealed that Mytyl was the original muse whose Joule's powers come from. Joule merges with her, so Gunvolt and Copen's final battle is over the Muse, as a singular entity. Regardless of who wins, they ultimately decide to let her have what she always wanted: a normal life. This devastates them, but it does mean that rather than Gunvolt or Copen getting a happy ending, the Muse does. This is because the Muse is the main character, not merely a damsel in distress to be stuffed in the fridge.

So, in that case, how do future games follow up on that? In Copen's case, his spinoff games are part of an alternate timeline. Additionally, the first spinoff game of his really is about the human-Adept conflict, and rightly so given that Copen's fatal flaw is his bigotry towards Adepts. For these reasons, I won't dwell on it. That said, they do manage to incorporate the idea of the Muse into the plot by revealing that Mytyl has been transformed into a monster, forcing Copen to put her down. The second spinoff takes place in an entirely different setting, weirdly enough, and has very little to do with the human-Adept conflict or the Muse.

As for the third mainline game, Gunvolt 2 ended on a cliffhanger. Gunvolt's mission control was revealed to have plans involving Mytyl. I was admittedly a little nervous about how they might follow up on that. Gunvolt 2 was effectively the end of the Muse's arc. Why take away their happy ending? So, I was hoping that Gunvolt 3 would find a way to make those plans not end Mytyl's normal life, or else do something different.

Gunvolt 3 actually did nothing with this cliffhanger. Instead, it's revealed at the beginning of the game that Gunvolt's powers spiraled out of control, causing him to almost kill the character that was set up as his future love interest in the previous game, Quinn. Out of fear, he turned himself into the evil mega corporation from the first game, Sumeragi Group, whose goal is to control Adepts, and was sealed away for several decades until his power grew to the point that a shrine maiden with purification powers was forced to step in. Now Gunvolt helps the shrine maiden purify other Adepts whose powers are driving them mad.

"Great!" You say. "That's something different!" Except... no, they actually just brought in a counterpart to the Maverick virus from the Mega Man franchise, the one thing from that series Gunvolt was lacking. Gunvolt's narrative actually became even more of a Mega Man rehash. The Muse technically returns as a sort of program that achieves sentience as a result of Gunvolt's influence, but here she plays almost no narrative role and is just there for the returning gameplay mechanic. Additionally, the bad guys have a muse, of sorts, but she's not really all that important, and instead just the MacGuffin that the bad guys are using to try and brainwash everyone like they wanted to with Joule in the first game.

In essence, while I would disagree that the first two games were just a Mega Man Zero rehash narratively, the third game is and it makes me sad.

Joules didn't get his suit, his Stylist tried to explain that jewels glowed in the dark and the different colors were supposed to represent the different sources of power, solar, wind, and hydroelectric. At least it wasn't that ugly, and it actually covered him up, unlike his chariot outfit. He had just wrapped up his interview and was now standing by Neptune watching the rest go on behind stage. Then the lights flickered, ever so subtly. To the tributes who didn't know anything about power, it probably meant nothing, but to Joules who had been raised on listening to his dad rant about his fears of power outages and how it would have looked on Five, he knew exactly what it meant. He was whispering to Neptune,

"We're about to lose powe-" And then down went the lights, before they came back after a moment or two. "That's not supposed to happen in the Capitol. All of our best dams run twenty-four hours a day to power the Capitol."

So, I'm embarassed I didn't realize this until now but Tera Jewels (the little gem 'hats' that terastalized pokemon wear) is probably a play on terajoule, which is a unit of measurement for energy (and is pronounced the same way). Specifically a terajoule (TJ) is one trillion joules. That's because the prefix tera- means trillion. But it's derived from the Greek teras, which means "monster" or "monstrous."

The friiiiiickkkkk, that's so cool. Also I am so late to realize this even though terajoule was a term bouncing round the back of my head, I knew I'd heard it before

I always assumed the "tera" in Terastalize was from the Latin for land/earth, but it could be from the Greek for monster that's SO cool aaaaaa

Anyway, the Nemona/Juliana ship name Terajules got even cooler to me

taking a bath

I resolved to take a bath

my aching body does the math

to maneuver my legs into the steaming tub

welcoming my shivering skin to the polar covalent club

where the positive and negative coexist

and jokes on me, the alchemist

who thought these charges lived in harmony

when in reality, the electrons lack autonomy

constantly repelling each other per the rules

of how different transformations translate to so many joules

matter is an illusion, a mirage, a ghoul

and each unpaired electron, a pleasure, a jewel

A secretary is a creature to me.

Janet Jennings, a mingler; Jewel Joules, a loan shark; Judy Judkins, a needlenose; Jason Jinkins, a… hm. Well he’s experimental; and Jennifer Jackson, a micromanager (janet and Jewel are my interpretations idk how they'll look in game or in the content)

Heheh part of the lore I have w/ my friend includes the terms “Designer Brat” and “Experimental” are insults. Designer brat is an insult that means “you’re only valuable because you’re pretty.” Basically an insult about how their only worth is their looks.

Experimental means “the only reason you exist is because someone wanted to break rules” aka you’re not supposed to exist but someone decided to let you exist anyways.

🎭 Welcome to our system blog 🎭

Quick view: plural blog | diagnosed traumagenic DID system but very pro all system origins as well as self dx | no DNI

Follows from: @tennisthemedhatesex

✂️ More about us under the cut ✂️

Collective Names: Crow, Hal, Joule / Joulean, and Howl. For this blog, Twenty is also fine.

Fun fact: the only names out of these that were not chosen by me are also the weirdest. My mom almost named us Joule (double pun because she's a jeweler, and my dad is a physicist and chemist, so it's the name Jewel but spelled like the unit of energy) but my dad vetoed it. I'll die mad about that. Howl has a WHOLE TON of lore behind it, but in short: because my ex-girlfriend tried really hard to assign kin Howl Pendragon to me and because I was mostly raised by a wolf.

Collective Pronouns: fi/fien/fiend/fiends/fiendself, they/them, any neos our alters use

Ok, I decided on her name: Jule or Jules.

The backstory: While Tech and Phee agreed on the name, they disagreed on the spelling. Tech wanted Joule, and Phee wanted Jewel. A predicament they didn't realize until her birth, because they hadn't actually needed to write it down before that. After much discussion, they agreed to let the child decide when she was old enough. Here's how that conversation went when Jules was old enough:

Phee: You know, if you preferred his spelling, you could just say so.

Jules: I don't. This is different.

Tech: This represents no unit of measure of which I am aware.

Jules: See? Completely different.

Phee: uh huh.

*She takes after her dad a bit.

Daughter of Tech and Phee

[eremitical]

joules is such a hilarious name for a unit of measurement. nice temperature you got there. now tell me it in JEWELS

[veirsewrites]

Really enjoying Water to Blood so far, just thought i could share some errors, when describing the style of clothes it says "buisiness but hot" instead of business, and i think you meant warm/cool jewel tones instead of joule. But so far, it's really good

Ah, thanks for catching those. I wish twine caught misspellings so I didn't have to look for them lol. I may need help again in Ch 2 ;)

[asexualhiccup2]

I feel bad for my anthropomorphic lamp OCs. Name-wise, I mean.

Like Fluorine is bad enough, but poor Joule(pronounced like 'Jewel') would 100% get bullied if she went to public school.
