Line 34:
* [[Goddamned Bats]]: The spiked wheel enemies. They are inordinately tough (two saber slashes when one will do in most anything else that moves), coming rolling from offscreen towards you (or occasionally from behind) with no warning, do a ridiculous amount of damage (more than virtually any other normal enemy), move just fast enough that it would take split-second reflexes to dodge them, spawn again if you move mere ''pixels'' backward from where they appeared, and are sometimes dropped in by lifter robots for added cheapness.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: In ''[[Mega Man X|Mega Man X4]]'', This exchange is made by Sigma and the General in regards to humanity's views on Reploids when the former was trying to recruit the latter:
{{quote| '''Sigma:''' It's about the Maverick Hunters, General. They are far too eager to please the humans and hunt down the Reploids! Do you believe they pose a significant threat?! <br />
'''General:''' Perhaps... <br />
'''Sigma:''' You already know the truth, General! Their sole mission has been to destroy any Reploids who fail to do as the humans order! }}
** As this series, and especially Dr. Weil's speech to Zero in ''Zero 3'' showed, Sigma actually turned out to be ''right.''
{{quote| '''Dr. Weil:''' Hehehehe... How pitiful. Of course, a Reploid like you would never understand. The joy of ruling all that you see... Only a human could possibly understand!<br />
'''Zero:''' A...human?<br />
'''Dr. Weil:''' That's right! I'm a bona fide human. The creator of Reploids... A human being!<br />
'''Zero:''' ...<br />
'''Dr. Weil:''' The desire for power. The joy of making everything work for you. You have no way of experiencing this without a human brain. It's the ultimate joy! No mere Reploid could ever understand! }}
** ''That being said,'' Sigma (and by proxy, Weil) was only ''partially'' right - there's obviously ''some'' humans who think like that, but in this series, considering all of Neo Arcadia's propaganda, who would blame them? To say that all [[Humans Are Bastards]] in this instance would be to use the same fallacy that Yggdrasil used in [[Digimon Savers]] (using evidence of the actions of one [[Complete Monster]]<ref>who, amusingly enough, was a ''lot'' like Weil</ref> to tar humanity with the same brush).
