Description Well everyone, here we are! The moment we've been waiting for, Phase 3 of the Capcom Cinematic Universe, is finally here! From the title of this new phase, you could tell what this saga is going to be about. That's right...ABYSS!

So let's not waste anymore time and commence the badassery!

CAPTAIN COMMANDO; CLASH OF SUPER HEROES

From what you have seen in Arcadians: Rise of Sigma, the Commandos and Maverick Hunters had a bit of bad blood against each other. And now we have this first entry of phase 3 that culminates those events. So after Sigma and his army of Mavericks were taken down for good as well as Ingrid, D.D. and Luke attending their own vacation, the Abel City council proposes a law that will place the Arcadians under the watchful eye of the mandate, forcing the members to register to court. X, as the Commander of the Maverick Hunters, agrees with this law, believing that this law will decrease destruction, but Captain Commando is against the law, believing that it is unjust for their team to be controlled by others outside of their group, thus causing the Arcadians to be divided. Anyone who has watched me long enough will remember I did my own take of what Civil War would look like if Capcom made it (right here, actually ), but now the roster will be completely different. Some characters remain, but the others will be replaced to correspond with the ongoing plot of the story (which I will post later).

In addition, there is a new character that will assume a more neutral role. This character is Don the Rabbit, who appeared Don't Pull, one of the three games included in an arcade compilation known as Three Wonders (the same game where Lou of Midnight Wanderers originates). Here, he is the secretary of the Arcadians who is supposed to fill in for the three Core Holders. However, later it is revealed that he is actually an agent of the late Sigma, carrying any trace of the remaining Sigma virus, which was capable of infecting even organic life. This infected version of Don will attack Captain Commando and X, as well as their team members, due to the violent nature of the organic Sigma virus.

And yes, the title is based on the first Marvel vs. Capcom game.

PLOT: Following the events of The Rise of Sigma, the Abel City council passes a law stating that the Arcadians are to register under their courts and fall under mandate. With the Maverick Hunters supporting the law and Captain Commando opposing it, the battle-lines are drawn and sides have been taken. But a new member of the Arcadians, Don the Rabbit, is suddenly caught in the crossfire of the war and attempts to try and get the team back together or risk being divided.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: After the events of the final battle, Captain Commando is at the forests of Japan, saying farewell to Ryu as he attempts to return to his master's home. After an apology for being involved in their battle, he takes off to his home, leaving Ryu to make his journey back to his home. Elsewhere, Jin returns to his own time, standing in front of the Blodia, the Variable Armor left behind by his father. With a look of determination, he approaches it and jumps into the cockpit.

MEGA MAN 4: SUPER ADVENTURE

Meanwhile, what has the classic Blue Bomber been up to while that madness was going on? Well, at the end of Rise of Sigma, he got a call from Doctor Light about his adversary's disappearance. But it turns out that Doctor Wily has activated Ra Moon, buried under the ruins of the Amazon, which caused the machinery around the world to shut down. Luckily, Mega Man was able to survive thanks to Dr. Cossack, and now with the help of his brothers, sets out to the Amazon to defeat Wily's Robot Masters, which were rebuilt by Ra Moon. If you haven't figured it out already, the plot of this entry, as well as the title, are based on Super Adventure Rockman, an interactive spinoff of the Mega Man/Rockman series that never left Japan. However, we were lucky enough to see it adapted in the Archie comic series, on which the plot of this film is also based. There will also be elements from Mega Man 4.

PLOT: As Mega Man returned to Dr. Light's lab, he was informed about Dr. Wily's mysterious disappearance. He was about to search for some clues about him being missing, but a surge of electricity has shut down all of the machinery around the world, including robots such as him. Two weeks later, he was successfully reactivated by Dr. Light's colleague, Russian scientist Dr. Cossack. And not only him, the other Light Robot Masters were reactivated after the surge, except for his sister Roll. Willing to save his sister, Mega Man teams up with his brothers and ventures to the Amazon, where the source of the surge called "Ra Moon" is hidden.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: Deep in the confines of Dr. Wily's lab, a number of screens started to switch on. Monitors whirred, lights flashed and the lab control panel booted up. Suddenly four hidden robots emerged. With eyes full of revenge the robots menacingly walk out of the lab in search for their master.

CYBERBOTS: FULLMETAL MADNESS

When we first saw Jin, he was aiding Captain Commando in the fight against the Abel City Accords. And here he is now, piloting his Blodia in order to defeat a threatening evil that could end the galaxy. A little backstory here: the post-credits scene of Armored Warriors revealed a capsule floating in space. This capsule, the Ganglions of Omniscient Disrupter (a.k.a G.O.D), made its way to Earth and began to colonize the planet. Not even the Red Shield Unit was strong enough to handle this threat, thus they were perished. Because of Earth being overpopulated, plans were made for most to evacuate Earth and instead reside in manmade colonies. Meanwhile, some of the humans stayed behind, likely to face G.O.D. Jin is one of these humans, piloting the Variable Armors that were left behind by the Earth Force. The actions that will follow rest within the metallic hands of these futuristic knights.

PLOT: After the death of his father during the events of Clash of Super Heroes, Jin Saotome seeks to become the best VA pilot alive and wants to prove his worth through the VA battle circuit. But his encounter with a man named “SHADE” makes him question about his father’s death. Meanwhile, a giant space capsule has landed on Earth and begins to eradicate half of the population that remained there by spreading an organic virus. With only a few days until the Earth's destruction, Jin and a group of other VA pilots sought to destroy the space capsule before it is too late.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: The audience is treated to a shot of a red biplane, sitting neatly atop of a green plain. We then hear some punching sounds before the scene transitions to an Englishman in an aviator suit practicing some "shadow-boxing." After he is done with his personal training session, the Englishman hops aboard the biplane and takes off while saying, "Well, now...time I got to see the world for myself."

POWER STONE

"WELCOME TO POWER STONE WORLD!" That's rights, everyone! Here is another newcomer that will debut in Phase 3, as well as another franchise I was looking forward to add! Power Stone takes place during the 1800s, where dreams of fortune are on the rise. The titular Power Stone is a rare gem that will grant the wish of any person who obtains it. However, little does anyone know that there are actually seven of these sacred stones and, if together, will usher a new breed of miracles. Edward Falcon, an English boxer who is the son of a pilot, was intrigued by the mythical Power Stone only to end up with one in his hands. After witnessing the awesome power of this mysterious gem, Edward is motivated to seacch for the others, unaware that others are doing exactly that, likely to fulfill a lifelong wish they have. So this film's plot does take a few elements from the anime (yes, it existed), but instead of teaming up in the beginning, the characters pretty much compete for the search of all of the Power Stones.

PLOT: In the 19th century, strong believers of legends, myths and superstition search for fame, fortune and glory. When a legend of mystical gems known as Power Stones were murmured across the world, eventually the believers from all over the world set out to search for this treasure. The life of Edward Falcon, a rookie boxer who is actually the son of a missing aviator, changes when he finds one of the fabled Power Stones and, when encountered by a gang of pirates, is granted immense power from the gem. Curious about the other Power Stones that could grant holders the same power, Falcon goes on a journey to search for them, preparing himself for some rivals with the same goal in mind.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: In a dark and cryptic room, we are treated to a shot of a blue-furred demon eating some food being served by a yellow demonic butler. As the butler was leaving the carnivorous demon be, he was encountered by a shadowy figure, who kills the demon offscreen. The blue demon was alarmed by the screams of his servant before being encountered by the demon who was resurrected by Nomidas, who offers him a deal.

DARKSTALKERS 3: JEDAH'S DAMNATION

Last time we saw Morrigan and Hsien-Ko, they were forced to fight each other over the passing of the Abel City Accords. But now they will come to a compromise when they and the other Darkstalkers must fight against Jedah Dohma. In the post-credits scene of Darkstalkers 2, Jedah was resurrected by the late Nomidas' mages. In his eyes, he saw the modern world as corrupt and lacking a true leader to aid its people. He plans to resolve this by creating the Majigen out of the souls of several demons and using it to control all of the Demon Realms and Earth. Many of the Darkstalkers have witnessed the birth of the Majigen, as well as the creation of the Fetus of God, and decide to team up once more to stop Jedah or die trying.

PLOT: Jedah, one of the high nobles of Makai, is resurrected by Nomidas' mages. Seeing the state of the demon world, he decides that the only way to save the world is to recreate it. In order to do this, he sacrifices the demon Ozom to create the Majigen, fit to contain only the strongest of souls for the creation of his new world. Luckily, these strong souls belong to the Darkstalkers, who were summoned to this dimension by Jedah, and they all begin to fight their way to put an end to the demon lord's ambitions.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: 
Back at the Castle of Maximoff, Demitri retreats to his quarters, maddened about what Jedah told him about him being the predecessor of one of the "Carriers of Blood." After one of his servants question what is wrong, he quietly says "None of your concern" before telling him to return to his post as he leaves. Outside of the castle, a flying ship passes by the full moon, with the silhouette of a woman in pirate garb.

GHOULS N' GHOSTS

The last time we saw Sir Arthur, he was defeating Sigma and his Maverick army in The Rise of Sigma. Thanks to Ingrid's magic, he was able to return to his medieval home, only to realize it is not as welcoming as he had hoped. Many demons from the Demon Realms have arrived in the human world and claimed the souls of the humans, including Princess Priscilla. Arthur once again dons the armor and must stop the demon king Lucifer from regaining any more power to rule the demon realms.  The entire plot of this movie is based on the game of the same name, where Arthur is tasked to save everyone's souls from the demons. However, he is not alone this time around. Debuting in this third phase of the CCU are Lancelot and Perceval, two knights who appeared in Ghosts n' Goblins: Gold Knights, which was a mobile game (of all things) and the last in the series. Before her soul was taken away, Priscilla was able to gather the three knights to deal with this threat.

PLOT: Sir Arthur finally returns to his medieval home after the final battle in The Rise of Sigma. However, the sight he encountered was not what he expected: the demons and monsters from the Demon Realms have invaded the human world and robbed the humans of their souls in his absence. The more dreaded news is that Princess Priscilla was one of the victims of this invasion. As he was about to re-enter the Demon Realms to save the humans once again, he is encountered by knights Lancelot and Perceval, who tried and failed to defeat the demons. All three of them prepared to go on a new demonic (and, once again, humorous) journey to defeat the demons' leader, Lucifer.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: In a small town at midnight, we are treated to a shot of the red moon. Seconds later, a red light flashes from the moon, revealing a woman with a sword. She lands successfully onto the outskirts of town and looks towards the shop named "Devil May Cry."

DEVIL MAY CRY 2

After his alliance with X in Captain Commando: Clash of Super Heroes, Dante makes his stylish return in this sequel to the Devil May Cry movie. Going by the official timeline again, the plot of thie movie is based on the very first Devil May Cry video game, where Dante meets with Trish and attempts to fight Mundus. This is also where he gains the sword Alastor and encounters Nelo Angelo, who happens to resemble a certain somebody. Anyone who played the game would know who he is, so I ain't gonna spoil anything. So now, without further ado, LET'S ROCK, BABY!

PLOT: After the battle in Clash of Super Heroes, Dante returns to tending to his newly-christened store, Devil May Cry, before being attacked by a mysterious woman named Trish. She says the attack was a test, and that the demon emperor Mundus, whom Dante holds responsible for the deaths of his family, is making a return to conquer the human world. Soon after, the two arrive at a grand castle where Mundus could be scheming his plans for domination. Now with the powerful sword Alastor, Dante sieges through the castle and fights his way through several demons to reach Mundus, including Nelo Angelo, whose appearance appears to be familiar to the demon hunter.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: Back at Dante's shop, he is joined by Trish, who has redeemed herself after betraying him for Mundus. After he reminded Trish that she is human and that "devils never cry," it served as motivation for him to change the name of his store to "Devil Never Cry." They receive a report that several demons are attacking an area, and the two rush out to kill them.

STAR GLADIATOR: FINAL CRUSADE

Our third newcomer in this third phase is an overlooked video game often comparable to Soul Calibur and Star Wars. That's right, we're talkin' Star Gladiator! I honestly had no plans for making a movie idea based on this game this soon. But because Hayato appeared in MvC2, I decided "Eh, why the hell not?" Set in the far future, even further than Mega Man X's time, humans have explored into the deeper reaches of space and settled in several alien colonies. But some alien civilizations objected to these acts, so the Earth Federation developed a weapon containing "Plasma" power to protect Earth from evil forces. Thanks to the genius of Dr. Edward Bilstein, the Plasma weapon has gained success. But it has been revealed that Bilstein has experimented on live humans for his Plasma weapon, and the Earth Federation banished him to the deep ends of space. Many peaceful years passed and the Earth Federation is attacked by a rebel army known as the "Fourth Empire," and as a response, the federation gathers fighters from around the galaxy for their Project: Star Gladiator.

PLOT: In the year 2348, the discovery of newer colonies in space have led to expansive civilizations and the discovery of a new energy source originating from the sixth human sense, "Plasma" power. But Dr. Edward Bilstein, a genius physicist who has invented the Plasma weapon, was exposed to have been experimenting on actual human bodies and was banished into a floating prison capsule in space while the Plasma weapon's development was cancelled. Four peaceful years later, the Earth Federation was attacked by the Fourth Empire led by Bilstein, who has freed himself from his prison. Upon this revelation, the Earth Federation aims to gather fighters from across the galaxy capable of wielding Plasma power in order to defeat the Fourth Empire.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: After the defeat of Bilstein, the futuristic city appears to be more peaceful without the presence of the Fourth Empire. Meanwhile, in a dark alley, a light glows from between two buildings. After the light fades, a girl with wrapped ponytails walked out of the alleyway, quietly saying "Mom, Dad...I'm coming for you."

RESIDENT EVIL 3: NEMESIS

"You want S.T.A.R.S.? i'll give you S.T.A.R.S.!" God, that was a badass quote...Anyway, when we last saw Jill, she quit the Arcadians after the battle against Sigma and his army of Mavericks. But as she returned to Raccoon City, she noticed that it had already went into chaos after the outbreak. As she was searching for some survivors, she encounters the big bad of this film, NEMESIS. So with him running around in Raccoon City searching for the S.T.A.R.S. members, Jill must avoid the bioweapon and search for help to evacuate the remaining victims of the incident out of the city before things turn out for the worst. Resident Evil 3: Nemesis takes place nearly a day after the events of Arcadians: Rise of Sigma, with Jill leaving the team in order to check on Raccoon City, only to see that things are taken for the worse for Jill in this film. On top of that, I plan on having a TV spinoff series that takes place during the events of this film, based entirely on Resident Evil Outbreak, an incredible entry to the series that a lot of people missed out on for some reason. But enough of my rambling, let's get the show on the road.

PLOT: After departing from the Arcadians yesterday ago, Jill Valentine finds herself back on Raccoon City, where she discovered that a majority of the population has become zombies due to an outbreak from the events of Resident Evil 2. As she attempts to escape from her home, she runs into fellow team member Brad Vickers, who is killed by a new bio-weapon named Nemesis, who is after the members of S.T.A.R.S. Jill, with the help of three surviving members of the Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service (U.B.C.S.), Carlos Oliveira, Mikhail Victor and Nikolai Zinoviev, must try to avoid Nemesis while also searching for a way to leave Raccoon City before it suffers its fate.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: 
Jill is now on the helicopter piloted by Barry Burton after a nuclear missile completely wiped Raccoon City off the maps. She questioned where she could go from here now that her old life was taken away. Suddenly, Jill notices a black-and-green orb in the place of the moon before disappearing from sight.

BREATH OF FIRE II

The last time we saw Ryu in this universe, he and his friends have dealt with the goddess Tyr and went their separate ways. But this time a new threat has left the residents of Aspiria in fear. With all of the races about to suffer from this villain, Ryu searches for his former teammates to defeat him. However, throughout his journey he keeps seeing visions of his old family, likely serving as an important plot point for the climax of the movie. The basis for this film is the game Breath of Fire II, which had an almost identical premise. I figured it'd make sense since, as I mentioned earlier, the universe of the Breath of Fire series is a culmination of all of the game titles...except BoF6, of course.

PLOT: Two years after their victory against the vengeful goddess Tyr, Ryu and the other heroes of Aspiria have gone their separate ways and adjust to their new peaceful lives. One night, Ryu has had dreams of his true family, who were said to have ties to the late Dragon Clan. After waking up, Ryu begins to search for answes about these dreams and what connection his family had with the Dragon Clan. But as he was doing exactly that, several races began starting wars against each other over a mysterious cause. Ryu gathers his allies once more in order to find the mastermind behind these unknown attacks, while also searching for clues about his parents.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: Ryu appears in front of the Dragon Temples, where the Dragon Clan of old used to perform rituals at. Joined with him is Patty (who was revealed to be his long-lost sister Yue), who asks what he is doing here. He tells her that during the final battle, he sensed an unholy presence that almost felt like an earthquake, so he felt like turning to the Dragon Temples for answers. As the two reached deep inside the temples, the "unholy presence" Ryu mentioned begin to cause another earthquake, causing him and Patty to escape the temples as they all collapsed with the earth. Horrified by this sight, the two decide to warn the rest of their friends.

STREET FIGHTER IV

With that Ryu having done his adventure, it's time we got back to the more well-known Ryu, if you know what I mean. Anyways, if you look back at Captain Commando: Clash of Super Heroes's post-credits scene, Ryu was being dropped off at his home by Captain Commando himself. He then proceeds to go through his medidation in order to begin his training. In case you guys weren't aware in Stage 2, Street Fighter III actually covered the events of (Ultra) Street Fighter 4, which means this entry will cover the next chronological title, Street Fighter V. Now I know all of you are gonna say "Bruh, SFV's story mode was complete horses**t, and I can't believe you're adapting it into this film idea! How in the world are you going to fix that mess?!" And I was expecting you to say that because instead of the whole shitshow of a story Capcom did, I'm going to take a few cues from this neat retelling by The4thSnake. Check it out for yourself . So anyway, here's how the plot of this film go down compared to the actuality of the original version: The overall main plot is about Shadaloo's final stand by using the body of the ancient warrior Necalli as a new vessel for Bison before his potential downfall. Meanwhile, Karin Kanzuki hosts a tournament, of which most of the characters (including those included in the game's updates) would participate in. Some time later in the film, Ryu will train and seek guidance in order to defeat Necalli.

PLOT: After regaining control over Shadaloo from Seth in Street Fighter III, M. Bison feels his body about to fall apart, so he orders his troops to create a new vessel for him. The spare, named Necalli, was complete, but it suddenly became possessed by an ancient warrior spirit, causing it to escape Shadaloo's clutches and go on a rampage. Ryu encounters the ancient fighter and loses to him because of his incredible strength, so he seeks out various opponents that grant him wisdom and strength to challenge him once again. Meanwhile, Karin Kanzuki hosts a tournament that attracts sveral fighters, including Chun-Li and Guile, who both plan on infiltrating the Shadaloo Base later. Elsewhere, in the shadows, the Illuminati is at the rise ans they revive Nash, who has snapped out of his Shadow persona after his death in Rise of Sigma and is now trying to regain his memories. However, will most of the world warriors prepare for the time when their souls are in danger of being potentially devoured? 

POST-CREDITS SCENE: There is none, but there is a teaser trailer for Arcadians: Abyss War, as well as its date of release.

VIEWTIFUL JOE

Only one more film idea before reaching the big event, everyone! Now as for this movie adaption of Viewtiful Joe, the audience witnessed the CCU debut of Joe himself on the big screen in Clash of Super Heroes, where he was recruited by X to fight alongside him. And now here he is in his own solo film, where Joe is about to wow the fans with his Viewtiful fourth newcomer of the Capcom Cinematic Universe. The events of this film take place a week before Captain Commando: Clash of Super Heroes as Joe and his girlfriend Silvia are whisked away into Movieland, an alternate world where films are made. Now with the power of the V-Watch bestowed from his idol Captain Blue, Joe must fight his way through several villains and rescue Sylvia from the clutches of the Jadow. Since the series itself parodies lots of films, expect some fourth-wall breaks here and there.

And while I'm well aware that Dante was a secret character in the original game...he won't be in this movie for a long-shot.

PLOT: While watching the latest Captain Blue film, Joe and his girlfriend Silvia were surprised to see the movie's main antagonist reach his hand over the theater and kidnap Silvia into Movieland, the world of movies. Joe is also transported into it by Captain Blue's mech, the Six Majin, and gains the ability to transform using the V-Watch from Captain Blue himself. Now Joe must fight his way through the baddies of Movieland and rescue his girlfriend before not only Movieland, but also the real world come to an end.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: The audience is shown to an interdimensional temple, as we see several monitors showing clips from previous CCU films up to this point (including Viewtiful Joe) with certain dialogues being spoken in some of the films. The scene slowly transitions to Death and his subordinates that appeared in the post-credits scene of Rise of Sigma. One of his allies, Markon, says "Every story...every player of said stories...so full of life..." as he watches all of the screenings of each clip. With a cybernetic hand reaching out towards a screen that features the Arcadians at their starting formation, Death sternly claims "It's about time we take it all away from them!" before ordering his followers to revive the dreaded Abyss!

ARCADIANS: ABYSS WAR

HERE WE ARE, AT LONG LAST!!! The event that was preceeded by 37 movies in the making has now led to this big moment! The first part of the big event story, the Abyss War has begun! As you can tell, Abyss War would be a biggest and historic moment in all of video game movie history as it has come a very long way up until this big CCI crossover event. This movie will not only be one massive Arcadians movie than the previous two films, but every character and franchise that was previously introduced (in order; Mega Man, Street Fighter, Final Fight, Ghosts n' Goblins, Darkstalkers, Strider, Resident Evil, Captain Commando, Mega Man X, Battle Circuit, Devil May Cry, Ace Attorney, Rival Schools, Breath of Fire, Cyberbots, Power Stone, Star Gladiator and Viewtiful Joe) will all be in this gigantic story, making this the biggest crossover in video game movie history! Of course, since we're following the theme here, this movie will be an adaption of Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes, which means the big bad of thie film is Abyss. According to some Capcom sources, Abyss was an ancient weapon that was built during an age of magic, but it was sealed underground due to its unrivaled power. I decided to give him more of a personality, in which he used to be a human named Urick who actually built Abyss, as well as the core necessary for activating it. However, during an attack on his home Urick activated Abyss to deal with the incoming enemies, but lost his body in the process of controlling it, causing Abyss to fall into an eternal hibernation while the core was lost through time. Death and his cronies, who we all just saw in Viewtiful Joe's post-credits scene, sought out to reawaken Abyss to carry out their revenge against the heroes that bested them. They did this by using the very core that contained Urick's soul to reactivate it. Now inside the giant suit of armor, Abyss plots his revenge against the world for taking everything away from him. I will not spoil the ending of the film before I reach the post-credits scene, but the ending to this will be a total jaw-dropper for the audience and it will pull the emotional heartstrings of everyone who watches the end of this. But I believe it's time we got to the plot-line of this film.

PLOT: In the first part of this epic two-parter, The Arcadians and their allies have continued to protect their worlds from threats too large for a single hero to handle, but now, standing in their way is a threat unlike any other: Abyss, the fabled weapon of destruction. Resurrected by Death and his men, he plans to rob every world of it’s life and use them all to create the Chaos Realm. Everything the Arcadians have fought for has officially reached to this very climatic moment, the fate of all worlds and existence is all in their very hands and it is all up to them to put an end to Abyss and his forces before they lose the very things they hold valuable more than anything else.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: In a very barren wasteland after (SPOILER WARNING) Abyss' victory, some of the heroes that survived Abyss' Life Absorption ended up unconscious and on a pirate ship. As soon as some of them regained consciousness, they all encounter a pirate woman who claims that she was able to rescue them before they lost their lives to Abyss. The pirate introduces herself as Ruby Heart and has planned on having the heroes bide their time before the appropriate moment to fight Abyss again. After she left, X saw this as a chance to reconnect with Captain Commando after their previous confrontation. After some silence, Commando smirks and says to the Reploid, "About time you turned around, X." Then, a message appears as it thanks the audience for being a part of this long journey of the CCU up to this movie and then the final text fades in by saying "The Arcadians will return for one final battle..."

THE MISADVENTURES OF TRON BONNE

"Really nigguh? You're setting this film after something serious like Abyss War? What could Tron Bonne offer to the CCU?" is what I expect a lot of you to say. But in all seriousness, the following three stories do take place during and before Abyss War, much like this. Now, the story that takes place here introduces the future of Mega Man Legends to the CCU canon. I figured that since we've already seen Classic Mega Man and Mega Man X, isn't it about time we witnessed what happened centuries after the Mega Man X universe? So what's the plot of this film, you may ask? Well, since it is a prequel to the Mega Man Legends games, set some time before the first game, it focuses on Tron Bonne herself and her family of air pirates known as the Bonnes as they search for a very rare treasure while bashing heads with Glyde.

You guys still don't understand why this takes place after Abyss War, do you? Alright, then allow me to answer that question...once I reach the post-credits scene.

PLOT: In the year 800X, a majority of the world's landscapes have been sunken by a flood from years ago. A family of sky pirates known as the Bonnes are in search of treasure worthy enough for them to earn a high fortune. The family's leader, Teisel Bonne, seeks an ancient ruin to try and uncover a gigantic and highly valuable Refractor known as Diana's Tear. He has a short rendezvous with the younger Bon Bonne, but the two are quickly subdued and captured by Glyde, a rival air pirate serving Lex Loath. The sole female of the group, Tron discovers the money used to build the Bonnes' flying fortress, the Gesellschaft, was being funded by Mr. Loath. After discovering that Teisel defaulted on his million zenny loan, she realises that she has no choice but to pay off the loan herself or she won't see the other Bonnes. So Tron suits up in a custom Gustaff mecha and, along with her army of 40 Servbots, begins her quest to pay the ransom through any means possible, even through theft.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: The Bonnes are reunited after Tron defeated Glyde and Mr. Loath and sent them to prison. As they traveled through the skies, one of the Servbots enters the main base of the Gesellschaft and warns them about a giant green-and-black hole in the middle of the sky. We then cut to the shot of the island Tron was in as the Bonnes see multiple green-and-black voids sucking everyone and the buildings into it. This scares the Tron and then Tiesel, Bon, and some of the Servbots are suddenly sucked into one of the voids, prompting her to try and save them, but to no avail, scaring her even more. Despite that she doesn’t even know what to do, Tron decides to quickly escape the Gesellschaft until she accidentally runs into a black-and-green void that suddenly popped up and she gets absorbed into it, screaming for help as the scene quickly cuts to black as we hear Tron's scream echoed out.

MONSTER HUNTER

So with Tron Bonne out of the way, it's time we transitioned to another franchise of Capcom's which recently became a top hit of theirs. That's right, we're about to witness Monster Hunter enter the CCU canon. So for a movie based on a hack-and-slash game series where you hunt monsters and gain food, armor, and weapons out of them, what'll the plot for this one be? You see, I expect this one to be based on the story of Monster Hunter World, especially with how successful that game i for everyone. Here, humans and several other species have their eyes set on the New World, where they will be encountering several powerful monsters and hidden discoveries for research. The film focuses on the huntress Morose as she experiences the many monsters that reside in the New World and battles them to support the settlers that will reside here.

...What's that? A Monster Hunter movie is actually in development? Let's not even go that far...

PLOT: Bumans and other sentient races are heading to the New World, a separate continent from the populated Old World. The New World is an untamed wilderness abundant with very strong monsters, and where researchers have been drawn to uncover new mysteries. Morose the huntress is a part of the Fifth Fleet which has been summoned by the Research Commission to provide more support to the New World, where they are to search for Elder Dragons. While traveling to the New World, the Fifth Fleet encounters Zorah Magdaros, an enormous Elder Dragon the size of a mountain. After being rescued and arriving at the base camp, known as Astera, Morose and her Handler undertake various tasks to explore the area and study Zorah Magdaros at the behest of the Commander of the Expedition. 

POST-CREDITS SCENE:
Since the defeat of Xeno'jiiva, Morose has went back to the Research Commission to turn in her report. After successfully turning it in, she encounters Gawain, who has transported to her timeline to tell her that a new group is being formed to fill in for the Arcadians and is looking for more recruits. Morose agrees and is teleported to a futuristic base. There the audience notices the likes of Mega Man, B.B. Hood, two newcomers (Shiba and Simone) and Cammy White. Cammy smiles and says "Welcome to the World Union for Peace!"

CANNON SPIKE

Yep, you heard Cammy right there. She just teased the third and last story before the the finale which will mark the end of Stage 3. So quick question: who here has heard of the game Cannon Spike? You know, that one shooter game that featured Cammy, Mega Man, B.B. Hood, and even Nash? The one that was on the Dreamcast? Yeah, the game wasn't too well known to the public audience, but for what it's worth, it's a pretty fun game. Anyway, the original plot for the game was basically the World Union for Peace stopping terrorism. But here we see that the World Union for Peace was formed by Cammy, who was inspired by Chun-Li's exploits with the Arcadians, to deal with the uprising chaos being caused by Abyss. 

PLOT: The World Union for Peace, formed by Cammy White prior to the events of Abyss War, was formed to tackle any threats related to Abyss. After receiving news that a number of Arcadians were annihilated by Abyss's Life Absorption ability, Cammy gathers her troops, which include Mega Man, B.B. Hood, Gawain, a resident from Capcom World named Shiba, a cyborg named Simone, and their latest recruit Morose the huntress. They all set off to defeat any of Abyss's forces to weaken the titan before the final battle can truly begin.

POST-CREDITS SCENE: The World Union for Peace have gathered once more after defeating Abyss's followers and recovering some of the fallen Arcadians. They knew that their job is not done yet, so Cammy suggests that they wait until further instruction is given. However, Mega Man sensed that the sky is being engulfed by a giant green-and-black orb. Just as Cammy was questioning what went wrong with their rescue plan, Ryu appears inside of their base, where a confused B.B. Hood asks what is going on. Ryu could only answer with, "We have reached...a cataclysm!" 

ARCADIANS: CATACLYSM

"This is the final! This is where the men are separated from the boys and the fate of all worlds will be decided! Are you ready to witness history in the making? Let's get it on!"

Well, everyone, here we are! As Ryu has already stated, we have reached the Cataclysm! In other words, we have officially reached the finale of Stage 3 after all this time! So for this second and final part of the greatest two-parter saga, the Arcadians, now being led by Ruby Heart, are preparing for their final battle against Abyss, who has created the Chaos Realm out of all of the worlds he has destroyed, and now, our heroes from various franchises that were introduced in the previous three phases are joining together to defeat Abyss for the very last and final time in order to reclaim thei homes that were taken by him. This film is based entirely on Marvel vs. Capcom 2, much like Abyss War, as well as Avengers: Endgame (which RECENTLY CAME OUT, AND JUST IN TIME TO POST THIS). And I hope you have packs of tissues somewhere, because this movie is sure to take you for a wild AND emotional ride (heh, see what I did there?). So as I've said earlier, this will be the second biggest video game crossover of all time as our Capcom heroes will all stand up against Abyss, especially with X and Captain Commando compromising in this movie to re-gather the Arcadians once more, including their new allies, Tron Bonne (who was saved, luckily) and the World Union for Peace and they will all begin their final battle against Abyss and save the entire universe before all hope is lost!

PLOT: In the second part of the epic finale, the Arcadians that were rescued by air pirate Ruby Heart are in the midst of preparing for their revenge and to save all of the worlds he has destroyed. Their only goal: stop Abyss and destroy the Chaos Realm before any more worlds can suffer the same fate. After X and Captain Commando finally reached a compromise since the events of Clash of Super Heroes, as well as some new recruits joined the team, the Arcadians are finally ready to put an end to Abyss once and for all and save all of their homes for the final time. But can they prepare themselves for what Abyss has in store for our heroes, or will it all boil down to the completion of the Chaos Realm?

POST-CREDITS SCENE: The Arcadians are celebrating their victory over Abyss in Capcom World. Elsewhere, Ruby Heart is speaking with X and Captain Commando, who tells them that she sensed more powerful threats than the likes of Abyss. X simply claims that everyone will be facing the fate of the universe several times and it is up to the Arcadians to save them. The scene transitions to a scaling from a bamboo forest to an ancient shrine. The scene then stops on a statue of a certain wolf before cutting to black.

And like that, after some months in development hell, Stage 3 of the Capcom Cinematic Universe is complete! Hot damn, can you believe we came this far? I think I deserve a break after coming up with these film ideas that I'm sure most of you will enjoy. Luckily, I decided to post this on the day Avengers: Endgame is released where I am, so I believe I'll treat me and my parents to that after so much effort put onto this. So don’t forget to fave and/or comment to let me know what you guys think. If you have any more suggestions, please tell me in the comments below.

When I first made the post-credits for Abyss War, I somehow considered that some of the heroes' fates would be anonymous. Meaning you can decide who lived or who dies.
