This level was metal as hell, and something I would have expected to see out of Contra, not Mega Man. Jumping between fighters to get inside a carrier and defuse the nuclear bomb it intends to drop on your headquarters was incredibly cool.
There are three things about this level that really grinds my gears... Passing through those bug like platforms without being hit, going through a secret path without being electrocuted, and last but not least... protecting Ciel. I don't... want... to go... to this... goddamn stage... again... ever.
Sendy Lie It's really really hard to get an S-Rank in this stage. Each shot Ciel gets makes you lose 2 points on mission, the bug like platforms costs retry points, and doing it in good time without being hit it's almost impossible! OMG xDDDDD, I just managed to barely get an A-Rank xP
I see people complaining about the part where you protect Ciel. Just get the Shield Boomerang and plop your butt down in front of her, slicing any Pantheon Hoppers that come too close with the Z-Saber. ...Granted those Jiang-Shi buggers are hard to hit when they jump...
@@awesomehazimex7410 Erase form Destroys any bullets if you use a weapon, Like if you hit any bullets with the Boomerang Shield it will remove the Bullet.
Funny enough, protecting Ciel was the easiest part of the stage for me. I just used the shield boomerang to block the projectiles while throwing it at the enemies that don't shoot. Other than that, this stage was annoying to me.
Yo, This level may have been filled with extreme amounts of Bullshit, ESPECIALLY that section with electrical beams where the battery placement can actually softlock you/force you to die if you don't have more than half your default health bar to tank the beams, but at least they made the theme for it an absolute banger so that you had something nice to listen to through all the inevitable deaths and retries.
I always tried to tie in the mission start prompt to the break just before the main beat of the music kicked in because I LOVED the timing of it all. Still an annoying as hell mission to get through now.
THIS MUSIC AND STAGE.......it greatly proves why Zero has earned the name: "The Red Swordsman" and why he's THE MOST BADASS MAVERICK HUNTER IN BOTH THE MEGAMAN X SERIES AND THE MEGAMAN ZERO SERIES!!!!!!!! POINT BLANK!!!!!!!🗡️👍
Is this the stage where you fight against two bosses at the same time? And the stage ends with them clashing against each other while you jump? This one was DOPE!
I love this tune! My favorite in the entire game. This is probably strange but I had an adrenaline rush during this stage. I actually shown some sign of skill and did pretty well for a casual player.
My 8 y.o brain thought this was the final stage of the game back then. And even if it was, i would be fine with it. The presentation of this stage was 🔥🔥🔥
What is about airship fleet that give them such rockin’ tunes with Megaman of course being the stand out. Power Bom and ZX’s Onslaught and Through Lightning are just full of hype.
Nah, the Shield Boomerang is hella easy to use IMO, not to mention really handy when dealing with the smaller enemy bullets (which is exactly why you have to master it if you want to not let Ciel get damaged in this stage) The Chain Rod tho... fuck that thing, I haven't been able to properly master it even after playing this game (along with the whole series) 4-5 times, especially in the Forest of Dysis/Notus where you _really_ need it to go through both stages properly, it's a major pain in the ass lol
Protip: If you're talking about when you have to protect Ciel, you MUST use Erase Form and slash any and all bullets and enemies that come near. Otherwise, you'll either always lose points for taking too much damage or you'll lose points for letting Ciel take damage. Usually both. (I usually get Erase Form from the Phoenix stage every time I play through).
That's incredibly accurate, considering I would get points deducted for taking too long. Of all the stages, I can't believe you can't revisit this stage.
Actually, I found the defensive mission harder, I never have gotten a perfect mission score here... The music, well, there's TH-cam for that, I figured.
For fuck sake this mission is very goddamn hard ass fuck. Instead of protecting Ciel,i let those phanteons jumping into Ciel & just relax listening the music
Since I had to go through the hell of protecting Ciel, the bug platforms and all that shit I then had to fight that pain in the ass Kuwagust with 4 units of health left....thats right...4. And Kuwagust was such a pain in the ass that I just said fuck it and kept restarting the mission til eventually I beat that prick.
I'd recommend more just using the shield boomerang, most of the shots will end up deflecting and killing most of the aerial enemies and maybe some hopper pantheons. I thought Erase Form was great until I saw a comment of Boomerang Shield being better.
Is he brothers with Boomer Kuwanger? And also the stage is similar to wind crowrang stage from X7. But I'd rather play this stage over the shittyass crowrang's stage! Goddamn! Whoever put the heart tank in that stage, neck yourself!
But why does this go so well with the fact that some times passed after the first four people and the Neo Arcadia trip I believe (haven’t played this in a while)

Have fun getting that S rank with this stage.
(especially when you try to not get hit from this stage and attempt to take the alternate route without getting electrocuted)
Those JUMPS...why?
Welp.
I was fortunate enough to get an A rank on my Second proper playthrough alongside all Ex skills
Not too shabby at all.
🥲
Only getting a A rank is a Pain in the ass, getting a S Rank is nearly Impossible to me
The stormy background, jumping from aircraft to aircraft, THIS MUSIC....this stage blew my mind back then, holy moly
At least it wasn't timed like the bomb mission in Zero 1
And the boss is a giant blue jet stag beetle robot, everything about this stage is badass
Nostalgic
now imagine if they remade it
the one thing that sucked about this stage was how badly it suffered from screen crush
This level was metal as hell, and something I would have expected to see out of Contra, not Mega Man. Jumping between fighters to get inside a carrier and defuse the nuclear bomb it intends to drop on your headquarters was incredibly cool.
hell yes
And it gets even more badass with this music
But *THAT* part inside of the aircraft tho, was hard af
@@liviekumori yes
Zero games are full of badass shit like this and i love it
I don't understand why would Mavericks use nuclear bombs, they are useless against advanced machines, EMPs are more useful lmao
why is everyone complaining about the part where you protect ciel? that was the easiest, just use the shield boomerang.
Fr just Z saber if theyre behind you
I wouldn't mind it if it was like 30 seconds, but 90 seconds? idk what they were thinking
Only hard part of this mission...
...was trying to convince yourself to stop listening to the BGM and actually press "right" on the D-pad 0__o
You never just press right in a Zero game.
You *_D A S H_*
There are three things about this level that really grinds my gears...
Passing through those bug like platforms without being hit, going through a secret path without being electrocuted, and last but not least... protecting Ciel.
I don't... want... to go... to this... goddamn stage... again... ever.
God these games are nuts
Hard as hell
Sendy Lie It's really really hard to get an S-Rank in this stage. Each shot Ciel gets makes you lose 2 points on mission, the bug like platforms costs retry points, and doing it in good time without being hit it's almost impossible! OMG xDDDDD, I just managed to barely get an A-Rank xP
***** at some point I did get an s rank at this one...
Sendy Lie Waaaaah I suppose I should keep trying xD
0:40 this part gives me chills
man when this series gets good.... holy crap does it get good.
This stage is hard but nothing compares to the absolute stress inducing headache that is Fenfir's second stage
The Temple of Flame is the worst
yeah that stage is so irritating because of the fact that you have to manipulate bombs over instant kill lava in a tight enclosed space
Getting a 96 for the S-Rank on this mission took so long, but I did it!
It's the hardest mission, ever.
Right on! 🤘
Rockin' on, dude!
Not bad, mate.
When the song is really good but it gives you ptsd
LMFAO
XD XD playing through zero 2 right now I can assure that the number that I abused save states on that were over the roof
@@Andy-sj4ip I used them in places where a game like shovel Knight would put checkpoints
*starts headbanging to song while having a mental breakdown*
The Game : There's a lot of Bullets in that stage, use the Shield
Me : Only use the Z Saber ? Ok !
Well of course you'd do that. You're Zero
you'd only have the eraser form if you used the shield earlier
This stage is pretty hard.... Protecting Ciel is easy with Shield Boomerang, but the part with electric beams..... Goddam
Don't forget the accurate jumps that you gotta do to keep going
I love this boss's look. The beetle antlers made me think of a Metroid Fusion boss
I see people complaining about the part where you protect Ciel. Just get the Shield Boomerang and plop your butt down in front of her, slicing any Pantheon Hoppers that come too close with the Z-Saber. ...Granted those Jiang-Shi buggers are hard to hit when they jump...
13gamerbullet
I hate the beginning because if a neo arcadian hits you off the ship you're dead
It's super easy with the shield boomerang. You could also use the armor that reflect bullets with saber slashes
Exactly what I do.
Note to self. Never Use the Boomerang Shield with the erase form.
Wait what does it do
@@awesomehazimex7410 Erase form Destroys any bullets if you use a weapon, Like if you hit any bullets with the Boomerang Shield it will remove the Bullet.

Aircraft Parkour before it was cool

Ah hell nah its that stage
I’M ON THE HIIIIIIIIIIGHWAAAAAAAAAY TO HE- *falls off an aircraft*
when ur trying to make a sick rank S clip and fall off the first platform 😂😂😂
😂
I only played this game once years ago, but this one track still lives rent free in my head
pretty easy stage...just whip out your trusty boomerang shield and use it like its supposed to be used.
Roman Dass Just restart every death... It will take a while. But it isn't impossible.
Just let the Capitain America Spirit on you and go on whit the shield
Never thought about that. Always tried to muscle through with Z saber
yeah to block shots from hitting ciel
and when the lil green fuckers start hopping even when the bullets don’t stop coming?
00:40-01:05 pretty much makes the song.
I always tried to tie in the mission start prompt to the break just before the main beat of the music kicked in because I LOVED the timing of it all.
Still an annoying as hell mission to get through now.
What I Love A Lot About The Zero Saga Are Their Music That Are Like Rock or Metal And Obviously The Character
Why Are You Typing Like This
Hello This Looks Fun So I Am Joining In
Yeah, not being able to revist this stage sucked, cause I always thought to myself "...crap, I REALLY hope I didn't miss any items.."
THIS MUSIC AND STAGE.......it greatly proves why Zero has earned the name: "The Red Swordsman" and why he's THE MOST BADASS MAVERICK HUNTER IN BOTH THE MEGAMAN X SERIES AND THE MEGAMAN ZERO SERIES!!!!!!!! POINT BLANK!!!!!!!🗡️👍
Is this the stage where you fight against two bosses at the same time? And the stage ends with them clashing against each other while you jump? This one was DOPE!
No, this is the stage where you jump from ship to ship and fight a giant beetle
That’s in the boss rush rematch. You do, however, fight against one of the two bosses in the end.
I love this tune! My favorite in the entire game. This is probably strange but I had an adrenaline rush during this stage. I actually shown some sign of skill and did pretty well for a casual player.
My favorite stage theme, and my favorite stage in the game.
For me, this was Wind Crowrang's stage done right
Is Wind Crowrang's stage bad? I haven't tried it yet.
@@bezoticallyyours83 it's horrible, but then 95% of megaman x7 is horrible
@@bezoticallyyours83 YES
Even though this came out before that lol.
@@bezoticallyyours83yes. In fact, spare yourself and don't play X7
I can't count how many times i damage boosted in this stage, fuck these eletric barriers
I've literally just sat there the entire time and let Ciel get hit, but if never failed the defensive part...
You can't fail it, but you lose 2 points off of your end-of-mission rank (to a max of 20 lost) for every time she gets hit.
I honestly don't care about rank, but thanks for the info.
I actually aced that part with the shield boomerang and the saber
Ah memories
flashbacks of Vietnam
This level can die.....
Well, at least good music!
I love the difficulty
Seth Xeider It wasn't even that hard...
When you're 8 years old it is. also, still one of the hardest stages in the series.
***** Really? Show me your footage that you obtained by spying on me, creep.
You know, has the Resistance have interceptor aircraft or missiles, none of this mission would had happened.
My 8 y.o brain thought this was the final stage of the game back then.
And even if it was, i would be fine with it. The presentation of this stage was 🔥🔥🔥
Erase form? Pfft, I prefer to catch the bullets with my face. Perfect score maybe not, but hey at least Ciel is fine
Best theme in the whole dang series, hands down.
Everyone else: This level is hard af
Me: .....Kuwagust is neat
I agree, his design is sick.
Megaman our traditional blue bomber.
Megaman x, zero and axl, the squad group.
MMZ zero *IS THAT GUY ON A MISSION*
What is about airship fleet that give them such rockin’ tunes with Megaman of course being the stand out. Power Bom and ZX’s Onslaught and Through Lightning are just full of hype.
Second best song in the game, in my opinion.
Second worst level in the game, in my opinion.
Funny how that works.
I always mistimed my jumps, but worth it if I can jam out to this sick beat.
"Ooooh yeeaaahh!"
If the Active and Ultimate form only had Double Jump capabilities, as well having the rolling slash damage formula of Z3 and 4...
One of my favs.
my favorite part 0:39
野獣先輩はロックマンXだった⁉︎
Let's do it together, brother!
melodic hardcore punk
Best stage, best song!
Ace of spades-Motorhead
i seriously cant use the boomerang shield. its too weird
It is a bit different compared to how Zero plays in just about every game he is playable. But it's nice to have something defensive to fall back on.
best weapon ever run up to an enemy with shield up then slash them to pieces
You just use it for defense
Nah, the Shield Boomerang is hella easy to use IMO, not to mention really handy when dealing with the smaller enemy bullets (which is exactly why you have to master it if you want to not let Ciel get damaged in this stage)
The Chain Rod tho... fuck that thing, I haven't been able to properly master it even after playing this game (along with the whole series) 4-5 times, especially in the Forest of Dysis/Notus where you _really_ need it to go through both stages properly, it's a major pain in the ass lol
@@DixieChix did you play classic or DS collection version?
The Platforms in this level look like Kamen Rider RX O_O
Easter Eggs all the way.
HENSHIN!
The last part of Mild high club- Homage is similar to the initial part of this OST
Holy shit
Sair! This is Ram It Down from Judas Priest
Say what you want about how shitty the stage is,but you must admit that this is a damn good soundtrack
this track is so cool honestly

Otherwise, you'll either always lose points for taking too much damage or you'll lose points for letting Ciel take damage. Usually both.

InfiniteJexulus I can never get erase form.
OR USE THE FREAKIN' SHIELD BOOMERANG AS A 2ND OPTION 😂
Who like this stage? No one? *Good.*
I do like it
I like this stage
¡el mejor!
*insert cod me and the boys meme*
Power Bom?
Isn't it supposed to be Power B O R N?
It was supposed to be power bomb
But because of copyright things they changed, power born would be a lot better tho
It's short for *Power Bombardment.*
This is one of my favorite tunes. But holy shit this level is insane! Kudos to those who never take a hit.
I also sucked at this level, but i don’t play on normal either, so I got used to it
That's incredibly accurate, considering I would get points deducted for taking too long. Of all the stages, I can't believe you can't revisit this stage.
You actually (sorta) can, but you have to discover it's crash site while you're doing the Crystal Mine stage to do so.
Actually, I found the defensive mission harder, I never have gotten a perfect mission score here...
The music, well, there's TH-cam for that, I figured.
Creaking Skull
For fuck sake this mission is very goddamn hard ass fuck. Instead of protecting Ciel,i let those phanteons jumping into Ciel & just relax listening the music

And Kuwagust was such a pain in the ass that I just said fuck it and kept restarting the mission til eventually I beat that prick.
Why did I miss so many jumps😭😭😭
bruhhhhh, fuck this stage
I think I played too much RPG & Super smash
and don't do a Finger on my face :) yeah it's a stage, but a mission at the same time
I'd recommend more just using the shield boomerang, most of the shots will end up deflecting and killing most of the aerial enemies and maybe some hopper pantheons.
I thought Erase Form was great until I saw a comment of Boomerang Shield being better.
Bender vs. Mei-Fang
Wind Crowrangs level 2.0 (and waaaaaaaaaaay better)
this music reminds me of Crash Bandicoot
For some reason this reminds me of Armored Armadillo's stage theme
I can't tell whats worse, the bugs, the bullet spam or Ceil...
USE THE DAMN SHIELD
Nah! Ciel was the easy part. Everything else in this level was designed to kick your ass hard.
Warr555 when harpuia
Stage is cool but I prefer even the fuckin factory from the first game.
What a pain

Just don't.
Ever.
GBA 049 Sorry! Did you read my comment in this video?
I die like over 9000 in this map :/ I hate this map seriously.
I hate this stage with a passion but the music made it at least bearable
