Powers And Abilities
Strengths:
[/justify]Standing at the height of 55 meters (180 feet), Impact is called the jack of all trades whenever it comes to the many ways in which he uses his skills to fight. He was allegedly 'created' by Monoshiri Ojisan solely for Goemon, only to be used as means-- usually whenever the time came necessary-- to fend off opponents that Goemon cannot fight off by himself. His systems were programmed with a fighting style that is described as stand-up combat. More specifically, Japanese kick-boxing mixed with the occasional usage of his weapons.
Listed below are a few of the many attacks that he can perform. He is capable of performing a few of them usually when costume change gem decides to change his form into that of a human being.
- Hyakuretsu Panchi: Impact winds up his fist to throw a powerful punch at his opponent.
- Hoyoyon Kikku: Impact performs a powerful kick.
- Rapid-Fire Punch: Similar to Hyakuretsu Panchi, instead the punches are thrown in such a ferocious, rapid pace to the point where they turn into a blur.
- Hammer Punch: A powerful punch that is aimed upwards in an attempt to knock the enemy straight into midair.
- Hammer Throw: Grappling onto a point on the opponent's body, Impact can use his strength to spin them around and hurl them at an astounding distance.
- Impact Beam: Accessible only when full-sized. After charging a great deal of energy, Impact can fire a catastrophic beam of powerful energy that explodes once it collides with the target.
- Oil: Also only accessible in the form of a robot, whether big or small. He can discharge and spit out a slick, oily substance as means of defense. This ability is seldom used since engine oil is a precious liquid that his system needs in order to properly run.
Other abilities also include...
- Being able to eat food and drink liquids in order to stockpile on energy to fuel his system, albeit it be a temporary solution if he were to be running low. While it is strange for a robot to consume edible substances, it is otherwise very natural to him.
- Using his skates to quickly maneuver around his opponents.
- Although only seen twice in the anime, he is apparently capable of shifting his size through complete will, but only from full-sized to doll-sized. It appears to be done strictly for emergency situations (such as plummeting into the earth's atmosphere). And once he makes that shift, he cannot go back to normal.
- He possesses the miraculously ability to feel the same sensations that humans experience, despite his status as a clockwork robot. This means that he recognizes sensations such as pain as well for changes in temperature. How and why he can remains unexplained.
Weaknesses:
- In order to be summoned to his full height, Impact would first need Goemon to blow the Triton Horn. To achieve the required stamina and energy to blow the Triton Horn, Goemon would have to first eat what you would call ‘power-up food’, which in his case is the Ohagi that his girlfriend, Omitsu, makes for him on a daily basis. The reason why the Ohagi gives him power is that it is made with the power of love. It has been shown several times in the anime that Goemon has failed to summon Impact to his full size before due to not eating the Ohagi or having it get stolen from him. So in other words, Impact is completely useless when he is stuck as the size of a doll, even more so without Goemon by his side.
- As the size of a doll, Impact’s damage threshold is very weak. He is prone to receiving damage that can potentially mess up his main system. When his main system is damaged, he completely shuts down until it is repaired.
- His fighting style relies on him being able to get in range with his opponents in order to land his hits. This means that he fails at long range as well for those who specialize in long-range combat.
- While he has no trouble breathing underwater, his body is such a solid weight that if he were to be dropped in a body of water, he would sink like a rock.
- Shown in the anime; if Impact were to be dropped from a dangerous height, both his body and his computer systems would be rendered completely useless from the inevitable damage he would receive from the collision with the ground.
- Highly affected by the elements. Fire and overwhelming amounts of electricity inflict more damage to him than anything else.
- Electromagnetic waves can mess with his computer systems, thus render him useless and unable to fight. He would not be able to control himself what so ever until the current is blocked.
- He relies on food as well for engine oil as a source for energy, as previously stated. If Impact does not get the required energy to power his system, he would simply get weaker and weaker until he shuts down.

Weapons And Equipment:
- Golden Kiseru: A mighty golden pipe that is very similar to the very one his master wields.
Since it is a part of him, the pipe is capable of disassembling and converting into a powerful bazooka that can fire off a powerful explosive once connected to his shoulder.
A section of the pipe can also extend into that of a chain from the base of the neck, acting like a whip. He can use the whip-like section smack the bowl into an opponent to inflict damage. Upon that he can even wrap the chain around an opponent if his aim is right.- Ryo: When full-sized, Impact can fire Ryo-- which is a type of currency-- from his nose like that of a Gatling gun. The Ryo explode on contact with the enemy.
Personal Information
Personality:
Impact is a sentient clockwork robot whom is described to be very affable, righteous, eccentric, and most of all, loyal. He is also naive and has the tendency to be child-like, which is well paired up with the inevitable spice of curiosity. He shares the very same sense of justice that Goemon has and is able to perceive his morals in the right sense where if the situation calls for him to make his own decisions, he knows when the time is right to make one.[/justify]
That is because while Impact is used as a powerful weapon against monstrous opponents that Goemon cannot fight against, he is also donned with the badge of leadership. He possesses the proper skills in order to be a good leader, as he is implied to be the sole leader of Planet Impact. He is also very easy to get along with once you see past his odd nature, as well for his tendency to be a very large and boisterous ham.
Aside from his good-nature, he can be surprisingly serious once the switch is clicked. With Goemon by his side, his determination has the potential to be set to ridiculous levels. Goemon is the only person that he deeply trusts. If he is told to do something by him, he will listen to him, and has never questioned him or any of his decisions.
History:
[/justify]Ganbare Goemon 2 - Resting in the Ryukyu Resort, Goemon and Ebisumaru's vacation is cut short by the Wise Man of Iga's creation, Sasuke. He informs the two of the evil 'Western' General, Magginesu, who has set his sights on Japan. Having already taken over Oedo, he works on the rest of the land. Being on the other side of the island, the three set out to make it back to Oedo, and encounter Magginesu's hench-Bunny-men along the way. First they run into the Wise Men of Iga again, and he informs them of his latest invention, and gives Goemon the Triton Shell, which will summon his new creation Goemon-Impact, but warns him not to use it until necessary.
After penetrating the first fortress of Magginesu, his Bunny Man General gets away, and Goemon uses the Triton Shell. To his surprise, a giant robot breaks through the wall, and places Goemon and the others in his control seat. Giant robot Goemon-Impact chases after Magginesu's General, and eventually faces off with a Giant Sumo Robot. Disposing of it, the cast head on their way once more. Along the way, they run into Yae once again, and as well, while they are occupied, Magginesu kidnaps both the Lord and Princess Yuki, and as well the Coffee Shop girl of Oedo, Omitsu, whom has a secret relationship with Goemon. Eventually, Magginesu kidnaps Yae as well. Finally, after Goemon-Impact defeats the third giant robot in Magginesu's army, the Sky Castle takes off. Impact quickly flies after it, and the trio storm Magginesu's stronghold. Finally they reach the end of his domain and confront him. In a Dr.Wily-esque battle, Magginesu attacks them, but quickly loses, so it seemed. It was really a robot double, a decoy.
Then the panel in the back of the room opens up, and Magginesu tells them of his plans, and that he not only has all their friends captured, but he also somehow got his hands on the Triton Shell, which they must have dropped along the way. Now Magginesu, with Omitsu in an embarressing bunny costume in tow, summons Goemon-Impact and forces him to fight Goemon and the others in the final battle. His one mistake, though, was ordering his troops to attack them as well, throwing bombs at them from above while he tries to crush them with Impact's fists. Goemon knocks the bombs back at Impact, and eventually damage him enough, and Magginesu is ejected.
Magginesu begins apologizing profusely for trying to take over, and westernize Japan, and promises to leave the country alone. Along the way he must have said something to insult Omitsu, because she (still in the cockpit of Impact) fires at him. Quite agitated at the whole situation, she powers Impact up and blasts both Magginesu and the good guys sky high, and goes on a bit of a rampage in Impact, before he finally falls apart. Magginesu dissappears, and everyone is safe. All's well that ends well.
Ganbare Goemon 3 - Sometime after the battle with Magginesu, the Wise Man of Iga has restore Impact, and finished his latest invention, a Time Machine. He quickly disappears into the future, leaving behind a monitor for Goemon, Ebisumaru and Omitsu to see what the future is like. However he doesn't waste time, and quickly begins chasing the ladies from the future. Suddenly, Omitsu screams at the monitor, as the Wise Man is captured, by Ebisumaru's evil french catholic descendent, Sister Bismaru, who plans to use the Wise Man's inventions to take over both the past and the future.. The Wise Man barely manages to tell them to get Sasuke's help, and Goemon and Ebisumaru get ready for adventure again.
They set out for the Wise Man's temple, along the way they run into Kurobei, whom they haven't seen since the first game/quest, and further ahead find Impact, buried in the ground, Sister Bismaru is already at work. Reaching the Wise Man's temple, it is infested with Sister Bismaru's robots, and finally they meet Sasuke, who attacks them. After knocking some sense into him, the three escape from the Wise Man's temple, riding three mecha, being chased by Bismaru's vessel. Eventually, the three meet up with Yae, and recover Impact's Triton Shell. Returning to Oedo, they find most of the town demolished, and Sister Bismaru gloating. After a brief skirmish, she kidnaps Omitsu, and runs. Furious, Goemon summons Impact to give chase.
Soon they face off with her robot, Bismaru-Elegant. After clobbering it, she escapes in her pod to the future, and Impact follows. Sasuke and Yae wake up, separate from Goemon and Ebisumaru. Eventually they are captured by Bismaru's men, but are soon rescued by Goemon and Ebisumaru. In the future, Neo-Oedo, they eventually learn of who is behind the plot, Bismaru's leader, Jurokubei. After going the length of Neo-Oedo, taking out Jurokubei's strongholds and fortresses, they eventually face off with him, and Bismaru in their combined, transforming robot. They defeat it, but the evil duo escape to their HQ. With Impact, they break in, and eventually find the Wise Man, who is being controled by a doohicky on his head. After a quick battle, they snap the Wise Man out of it, and Sasuke and Yae take him out of there, while Goemon and Ebisumaru go ahead to confront Jurokubei and rescue Omitsu. In a rooftop confrontation, Jurokubei finally confronts them face to face.
He makes a deal, the Triton Shell for Omitsu. Being cornered, Goemon had no choice but to give it up and save Omitsu. Jurokubei laughs, and flies off. However they really didn't save Omitsu, it was just Bisumaru in a mask. Punting her off the roof, they hear Jurokubei calling out. He has the real Omitsu in his clutches, and the Triton Shell, which he says he will use to gain the power of the legendary soldier. He uses the Triton Shell, but doesn't take control of Impact, as Sasuke and Yae arrive in him, and pick Goemon and Ebisumaru up. What Jurokubei was really up to, was using the Shell to apparently call the Impact of the future, Dark Impact. Impact faces off against his twin, and as Jurokubei attacks, something seems to go wrong, as the two robots are hurled through time once more.
Back in the past, Princess Yuki, the Lord, and Kurobei are commenting on how peaceful it's been lately, when Impact appears out of nowhere, landing on the castle, crushing half of it. Dark Impact then appears, and Jurokubei wonders what went wrong, and how he ended up in the past. Deciding not to waste time, he begins his attack for real. Impact vs Dark Impact. Darky is able to do everything that the real Impact can do, but eventually the real Impact lasts, and Dark Impact is destroyed. Relentless, Jurokubei flies out of the wreckage of Dark Impact and lands in front of Impact's cockpit. He says if he can't have Dark Impact, he'll take the real thing. But he must spend too much time talking, as in the middle of his winded speech, Impact blasts him off his face.
Soon after, Goemon, Ebisumar, Sasuke and Yae, find Omitsu and a defeated Jurokubei. By the looks of it, Jurokubei cries out that 'that hurt', and they get into a bit of an argument. Apparently, he realizes he must be a descendent of Goemon (at least, that's what I believe the text is saying, from my limited knowledge of Japanese) He was willing to give up, but Sister Bismaru runs in out of nowhere and apparently tries to convince him to keep being evil, but Jurokubei becomes annoyed, and punts her into the stratosphere, stranding her in the past. Jurokubei takes her pod, and prepares to depart, but compliments Omitsu one last time, and she briefly becomes quite smitten with him. Goemon mutters about letting that jerk go, but them Omitsu realizes one last thing, and asks them where the Wise Man is. And they all realize, they forgot him in the future. That's the end of the game, at some point they must have gone to fetch him before Goemon 4.
Ganbare Goemon 4 - Some time passes after the last events, and Impact disappears. Goemon, Ebisumaru, Yae, and Omitsu visit the Wise Man to celebrate his 98th birthday. After surprising him (and Sasuke who was.... dressed up for the occasion) the doorbell rings. The Wise Man answers, and looks up to see Impact kneeling over, greeting him. He informs the lot that for the past while, he was on 'Planet Impact', a place where everyone seems to look like him, only human sized, and they seemed to greet Impact as their ruler.
His reign as a king was cut short, when the planet was invaded and overthrown by a 'Seppukumaru' and his forces, who took over the four moons around Planet Impact and set up a barrier around it, and threw Impact out. Thus, Impact has returned, and asks the Goemon crew for help, to defeat Seppukumaru and free 'his people'. Ready for adventure once more, the four of them naturally accept. Pleased and grateful to them, Impact stands and turns around, but his leg slams into the Wise Man's temple, and topples it over by accident. Apologizing, he takes off into space with Goemon, Ebisumaru, Sasuke and Yae, leaving the Wise Man to rebuild his home. Arriving at the planet, Impact drops the four off, each on one of the moons, Goemon on the Desert Moon, Ebisumaru on the Forest Moon, Sasuke on the Ice Moon, and Yae on the Water Moon.
The four soon find that Seppukumaru is obsessed with all kinds of sports, as his compounds and fortress are littered with various sports themes. Along the way, Goemon meets up with a Tanuki who impersonates Omitsu, Ebisumaru runs into his eternal rival, Obisumaru, Sasuke goes on an errand to deliver medication to some patients, and Yae goes shopping for an odd clan of executioners. Eventually, they all meet up with his four, egg-shaped, henchmen, and to destroy each Moon's barrier, they defeat them all one by one, in 'combat'.
One challenges Impact to a sort bungee jumping match, the second presents him with an odd guessing game, the third races Impact across a track, and the fourth forces them to play an odd sort of puzzle/tetris game. After toppling the barrier, they all arrive in Planet Impact. The four then run into Seppukumaru's four hencheggs again, who yell at them, and seem to tell them how to find their master, then disappear. Finally reaching his domain, they fight through revised versions of the various sports fortresses they toppled before, and finally, face Seppukumaru in a showdown.
It isn't a traditional battle, however, as the four and Impact are on the planet's surface, while Seppukumaru is high above on the deck of his spaceship. Seppukumaru hefts a gigantic black sphere and hurls it at Impact (and I mean gigantic, it's like he threw the Death Star at him) and the fate of Planet Impact was decided by a game of catch. Impact barely manages to catch the sphere, and tosses it back at Seppukumaru, who catches it, but his spaceship is damaged each time it happens. Eventually, the ship can't handle it, and breaks apart. In a final 'sports play' Seppukumaru threatens to commit... seppuku, plummeting towards Planet Impact, and potentially destroying it when he dies.
Not allowing the planet to be destroyed, Impact leaves the Goemon crew behind, and flies up to catch the evil sportslord. He succeeds in catching him, but he knows that as long as Seppukumaru lives, Planet Impact, and the rest of the Universe would be in danger, so while he has him in his clutches, Impact flies towards the sun, to kill the both of them. Along the way, Impact sadly remembers all the good times he had with Goemon and the others, but is adamant to kill himself and his enemy for the good of all.
Seppukumaru criticizes Impact that that is not the proper way to play the seppuku sports game. Impact then foolishly reveals to him that seppuku isn't a sport, angered by that (for some reason) Seppukumaru breaks free, and punches Impact away, and flies off. Impact failed to kill Seppukumaru, though he realizes he is still alive. The others start laughing at Impact, because being so close to the sun frazzled his hair, so it looks more afro-y than usual, and they say he looks like a 'Dancer'. So then, Impact.... boogies, for the rest of the credits sequence. The end.>>References<<In the Ganbare Goemon anime, the events in which occur in the series are... quite interesting. It is roughly based upon the fourth game, the only additions being the fact that the demon lord, Makuamuuge, aims to take over the human world and thus acts as the sealed evil in a can. For the first half of the Anime, he sends off Seppukumaru and the four Tsujigiri to do his bidding, whom wreak chaos with the goal to open up a portal wide enough to summon Makuamuuge.
Though attempt after desperate attempt, Seppukumaru is thwarted off by Goemon and the gang up to the point where Makuamuuge is frustrated with him, and ultimately seals Seppukumaru away into the Muuge Hole for the rest of his life. Seppukumaru’s role is replaced by Dr. Mudanashi and his android companion Mr. Protein, who then take over for the second half of the anime.
Sample Post
It was an unexpected sight for his curious eyes to behold. The so-called trouble maker that he had pictured in his mind turned out to be the exact opposite. Instead, there stood the form of an... oddly placed woman, clad in a white cybernetic suit that hugged her body, tracing her graceful curves from head to toe. Blue waves of hair rained over her face and over her shoulders, curling just past her lower waist. Impact definitely hesitated, those skates well planted into the concrete beneath him, fingers curling around the handle of his pipe, as if to never let go.
He expected something from her-- a sort of preparation to attack-- and ah, there it was. He flinched when a flash of light exploded from her hand, only to lay his eyes upon a blade-like weapon that manifested upon her arm. She meant serious business. Treading lightly would be a wise path for him to take, especially with his words. He knew better to ask first, and to only strike back when the opposition made their move first. Upon that, the whole notion of how unexpectedly... off she felt prevented him from taking a single step further.
He stared her down, face completely hazed in a serious expression, teeth clenched, posture locked in a defensive stance. His mind was running around in circles, thinking, thinking, thinking. Serious was an odd one to see on a jubilant fellow as him. An odd, odd woman... Well, no, odd was simply too poor of a word for him to use to describe her. And to hear her talk. Mistrusting, bitter-- all of those tones rung in her voice.
“I am far from a thug." He quickly stated. “Huu, and I only investigated because I heard noises-- gun shots. It is my duty to protect the lives of innocent human beings, differences set aside, as well as for the world. But I see that something completely has happened here... I am not certain what to make of it.” Here, he lowered his weapon... but still keeping his fingers clenched around it.
The word echoed in his head again. Strange, odd, misplaced... was this pity? Sadness? Alien emotions. He was not used to feeling this, nor recognizing this. His muscles begun to quiver ever so slight, but he swallowed such things right down. Now, the woman was staring up at the sky. Statements of how tired she was... tired of fighting, and tired of being a... machine of violence? Curious. At this point, he saw no further reason for him to have his weapon still out. The big fellow took in a deep breath, exhaling it out as a long sigh... and collapsed his weapon away with a short gesture of his arm. His shoulders then sunk, lowering his head. So many thoughts flooded his skull... too much for him to process.
“Young woman. To prove you wrong, you are not alone.” He answered with a soft murmur. He then lifted up his head, peering into those strange eyes. “If I offered you help, would you be mindful to accept it?”
