Okay, before I go all three year old (MOMMY I WANT ONE PLEASEEEEEE) over this thing, we need an important piece of information. Yuna called it/him/the Reaverbot something, but I didn't catch what it was. Does anyone know? And does anyone know of any way I can get the model for this amazing piece of machinery? This guy appears to be a fully sentient Reaverbot, which if you think about it is quite unusual. It/him/the Reaverbot even made a mistake and apologized, which usually qualifies as getting at least a minor character qualification, but he doesn't even say anything after the beginning of the game. Overall, what are your thoughts on this amazing Reaverbot?

His name's Gatz (sometimes spelled Gatts), and he's a Servitor unit. He isn't actually a full-on Reaverbot. He's a System unit who transforms into a Reaverbot. Both of the Mother Units have a Servitor that can transform in the event that they need to attack something or transport their respective Mother Unit or whatever. Sera's Servitor is Geetz, and he turns into the gold Reaverbot that you fight at the end of the game. I wish Gatz had gotten a little more characterization. It's understandable that Geetz wouldn't, since he'd been stuck in hibernation with Sera until Mega Man opened the crystal up, but Gatz was hanging around with Yuna all this time, and Yuna's pretty cool. I wonder if he has any opinions on Yuna taking over Matilda's body.

I wonder what would happen if the Ancients were stuck with the Servbots. That would be interesting.

He actually says plenty of lines after the beginning of the game, you just don't quite know it's him. Some lines include but aren't limited to "Initiating countermeasures!" When he's extracting Geetz from the Sulphur Bottom's system. The short conversation he has when he's in a head-on clash with Geetz just before losing the clash and getting blown off-screen [before you actually battle Geetz] Conversations in text that he has when he's merged with the Shuttle-pod in Elysium after your initial arrival. Conversations just before initiating the battle with Sera when he's in the library's system. Servitor Units are definitely a step up from reaverbots, although they can take the form of one that looks like a Dragoon. Being able to merge with systems at will is undoubtedly a majorly interesting skill. I definitely agree that Gatz deserved more screen-time / dialogue / backstory among a plethora of other things.

I should add, Yuna affectonally calls him Gacchan/Ga-chan in the Japanese version, implying close relation or just her 'playful' nature in contrast to Sera.
