- "Do your worst, but I find it hard to believe that such a low-voltage robot like you can defeat me."
- ―Elec Man, Mega Man: Powered Up
Elec Man (エレキマン Erekiman?) is a Robot Master from the classic Mega Man series. He was built by Dr. Light to control electrical operations. Elec Man manages nuclear power plants and is capable of generating electricity. He can expel over 500,000 volts from his fingertips. Elec Man is very fast and his powerful Thunder Beam can destroy Mega Man in three hits. This was changed in later titles, but his speed and attacking power, along with new lightning-based attacks, still make him a force to be reckoned with, and is still one of the most feared opponents in the original game.
Elec Man becomes a playable character in Mega Man Powered Up, if he's beaten using only the Mega Buster. In that same game, his personality gets a serious makeover since Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters, as he is now very calm and noble, albeit arrogant and somewhat overdramatic. At the time of his creation, Elec Man was often hailed as Dr. Light's greatest creation and boasts superhuman calculation speed and razor-sharp judgment, as well as a physical agility that would not be matched for some time. He is very conceited and egotistical, but is otherwise very responsible and competent.

Elec Man appeared in episodes 1, 17, 18 and 24 from Ruby-Spears' Mega Man animated series, where he is much weaker than his video game counterpart (often being defeated by Roll's vacuum arm) and has a brief appearance in the third episode of Mega Man: Upon a Star. He has also appeared in several manga series, such as Mega Man Megamix, Rockman, Rockman World, Rockman: Blues' Resurrection and Rockman 4Koma Great March. He also plays a role in the Archie Comics Mega Man series.

Trivia
Edit
- Elec Man has a cameo appearance in Mega Man 10 as data of the Weapons Archive.
- Elec Man is Keiji Inafune's favorite Robot Master from the first game, because he was the first robot he ever designed.[1]
- Elec Man is incorrectly called "Electric Man" in the instruction manual from Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge.
- Elec Man is one of the few Robot Masters in the series with the distinction of having the same color and thickness of forearms as the upper arms.
- In Mega Man Megamix, he is slashed in the chest twice. First by Mega Man in "The Birth of Mega Man" with a Rolling Cutter, and again by Quick Man's Quick Boomerang sword in "R Destruction Order".
- Elec Man shouts "Thunder Bolt!" in Mega Man Powered Up just before unleashing his special attack. However, his special attack is more similar to the Lightning Bolt. To make it even more confusing his Thunder Beam looks more like a Thunder Bolt in Powered Up.
- Elec Man's level theme sounds very similar to "Faithfully" by Journey.
- In Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters Elec Man uses an attack he calls Force Field which is similar to the Force Field weapon Mega Man gets off Volt Man in Mega Man 3 for the PC.
- Interestingly, Elec Man can be defeated easily with no damage simply by shooting him in his underarms with correct timing. Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FMCwvh60tM&feature=related.
