The Devil Knight Planetman is a space-themed Choujin, with his body being composed of the 9 planets of the solar system (since Planetman debuted in the 80s, Pluto was decidedly still a planet). Initially, his head appears to be a facsimile of the planet Earth, but this would turn out to be nothing more than a mask; his true face is actually that of the 12th celestial body, the (hypothesized) planet Vulcan. As one would expect from his overall design, Planetman fights with strange, space-themed wrestling techniques, with attacks involving throwing the Saturn ring around his waist or splitting into his component planets. When this fails, Planeman can employ a rather unique underhanded tactic: using his Planet Face technique, he can manifest his opponent's comrades as faces all over his body, making it so they would be unable to attack Planetman without also hurting their allies in the process. | The Devil Knight Planetman is a space-themed Choujin, with his body being composed of the 9 planets of the solar system (since Planetman debuted in the 80s, Pluto was decidedly still a planet).

This is not a technique he has access to in any capacity in MGP2. | ||

On paper, Planetman's moveset | On paper, Planetman's moveset points to him being designed as a zoner of sorts; he has access to no less than 3 projectile specials, each covering different areas of the screen, and some even allowing him to situationally convert off of the fireball. In practice however, MGP2's universal mechanics in sidestepping and parrying makes playing neutral with these specials less viable, and the specials' meter cost further reduces their viability that centering Planetman's primary gameplan on these projectiles is not feasible. This leaves Planetman in not the best of spots, as with this unique feature stripped away, Planetman is largely a subpar character, with low damage and poor frame data. Granted, Planetman is still a functional character, largely still having access to the universal mechanics of MGP2, and Planetman offers a unique and stylish combo game quite unlike any other character; even if his projectiles are not-as-great in neutral, they have great combo utility. Unfortunately, Planetman's low damage rating means these combos do below-average damage, even with the meter spent on his specials. Aside from this, Planetman boasts a few other useful specials, including some very fast 3-bar special throws. | ||

Story
The Devil Knight Planetman is a space-themed Choujin, with his body being composed of the 9 planets of the solar system (since Planetman debuted in the 80s, Pluto was decidedly still a planet). Initially, his head appears to be a facsimile of the planet Earth, but this would turn out to be nothing more than a mask; his true face is actually that of the mythical 12th celestial body, the (hypothesized) planet Vulcan. As one would expect from his overall design, Planetman fights with strange, space-themed wrestling techniques, with attacks involving throwing the Saturn ring around his waist or splitting into his component planets. When this fails, Planeman can employ a rather unique underhanded tactic: using his Planet Face technique, he can manifest his opponent's comrades as faces all over his body, making it so they would be unable to attack Planetman without also hurting their allies in the process. This is not a technique he has access to in any capacity in MGP2.
Gameplay
On paper, Planetman's moveset points to him being designed as a zoner of sorts; he has access to no less than 3 projectile specials, each covering different areas of the screen, and some even allowing him to situationally convert off of the fireball. In practice however, MGP2's universal mechanics in sidestepping and parrying makes playing neutral with these specials less viable, and the specials' meter cost further reduces their viability that centering Planetman's primary gameplan on these projectiles is not feasible. This leaves Planetman in not the best of spots, as with this unique feature stripped away, Planetman is largely a subpar character, with low damage and poor frame data. Granted, Planetman is still a functional character, largely still having access to the universal mechanics of MGP2, and Planetman offers a unique and stylish combo game quite unlike any other character; even if his projectiles are not-as-great in neutral, they have great combo utility. Unfortunately, Planetman's low damage rating means these combos do below-average damage, even with the meter spent on his specials. Aside from this, Planetman boasts a few other useful specials, including some very fast 3-bar special throws.
