R20: Rockman & Rockman X Official Complete Works (released in the west by UDON as separate volumes) is easily one of the best and most definitive art books for the Mega Man series.

Today marks the birthday of Mr. Hitoshi Ariga, and we just wanted to wish him the happiest one he could possibly have (and maybe a job working for Capcom heading up the Mega Man brand). For those who have been living under one of Guts Man’s rocks, or are simply fresh off the assembly line, […]

Last year, Hitoshi Ariga mentioned that he was working on a new Mega Man project, but has been pretty silent about it since of course. That’s no reason to think nothing is progressing, though. Granted, I know a lot of you are eager and have been pestering at him about it. As a result, Ariga […]

A little something different today… Did You Know: Many manga creators, or “mangaka,” often use pseudonyms in their work? And as it so happens, one such creator who does so is none other than fan favorite Hitoshi Ariga, creator of the Mega Man Megamix and Mega Man Gigamix manga available from UDON Entertainment.

And no, […]

Now here’s a little news which should hopefully brighten up some days! Hitoshi Ariga, the writer and artist behind the ever-popular Mega Man Megamix, Mega Man Gigamix, Rockman Remix (with MegaMission), and Rockman 9 manga (among others– Big O, anyone?), has joined the many vast and varied artists who make up the deviantART community! Just […]
