comment
Natraps X is a series of Japanese Web Animations by Bash parodying the Famicom game Spartan X (known in the West as Kung Fu). While most of the series follows the game's protagonist Thomas, the core of the experience is a mash-up of dozens of different video games, as well as a handful of non-video game properties. After the first 15 seconds, Koopa Troopas and Castlevania zombies are crawling towards Thomas and he takes out a Mook with a Shoryuken. The off-the-wall action just escalates from there and doesn't let up, even when Thomas finds his captured girlfriend Sylvia, who is subsequently challenged by Rockman.This is the core "trilogy" of entries following the Spartan X gameplay format: Natraps X (2007) - The original Super Natraps X' Turbo (2007) - An Omake episode following other characters. Natraps X Final (2009) - The continuation of Natraps XWhile not part of the "series", Bash's Strange Collection 9 (2008) advances the story of Thomas in two of its segments, set between X and X Final: Sylvia ga Taosenai and Strange Collection 9's Ending.The story was then expanded on more properly with two prequels: Natraps XYZ (2011) - Chronologically first Natraps Zero (2013) - Set after XYZAnd then, two more sequels: Romantic X (2015) - A humorous video showing Thomas and X doing a choreography to the tune of "Romantic Love" from Parappa The Rapper Natraps X Revenge (2019) - Celebrating the 10th anniversary of "Final"The series can be seen as a Spiritual Successor of sorts to Michael Quest.

The Rival: Thomas and Mr. X, as in the original series. They started out as quite violent against each other (as shown in "XYZ"), but over the course of "Zero" and by the end of the trilogy they became friendly rivals, and "Revenge" shows they are still sparring buddies 10 years later.

Fusion Dance: Thomas and Mr. X perform one of the composite variety, seeing as it's an obvious Dragon Ball Z reference. Master Onion gives Thomas and Mr. X the solution to stop the enemy in "Revenge": they need to fuse with everyone, and so they ask Kirby to literally devour the entire Famicom catalogue of heroes to create a Super-Saiyan Blue version of Thomax.

Curb-Stomp Battle: Rockman's rivalry with Sylvia is utterly one-sided, to the point that he never lands any hits on her. At one point in "Sylvia ga Taosenai", he goes through Doraemon's Anywhere Door and blasts her in the back, but she reappears behind him and says he merely hit her afterimage, then Flash Kicks him.

comment
Spanner in the Works: Despite his ineffectuality, Rockman ends up being helpful to the heroes. Because he got frustrated enough to throw away an E-Tank that was then eaten by Pac-Man, Thomas had the opportunity to recover from his first defeat, escape Pac-Man, and challenge Sylvia again. Later (chronologically) in "Final", Rockman attacks Sylvia after her Curb-Stomp Battle with Thomas. Although he goes down in one hit as usual, this act distracts her just long enough for Mr. X to bring Thomas to safety and fuse with him.

Boss in Mook Clothing: In "X' Turbo", Mr. X starts the level and a Gripper approaches him. The instant Mr. X tries to attack, the Gripper destroys him with a rapid-fire combo of punches, kicks, and special moves.

Power-Up Letdown: In "Final", Arthur from Ghosts 'n Goblins attacks and Thomas tosses him a torch weapon, reducing Arthur's range so he's no longer a threat. In "X' Turbo", Gombe from Ikki is virtually unstoppable with his throwing sickles, but when he picks up the bamboo spear which only attacks straight up, he's utterly unable to defend himself against a gang of Grippers.

Let's You and Him Fight: The epilogue of "Zero" explains the events of the original movie: Mr X fights Thomas because Mr. Z (trapped in Sylvia's body) convinces Mr. X that Mr. Z has learned the error of his ways, but Thomas doesn't buy it. This gives Mr. Z enough time to break the seal on the chair, setting himself free.

Shout-Out
 Natraps X (Web Animation) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The concept is a reference to an Urban Legend of Zelda claiming that Thomas could fight Sylvia in the original game by finishing all of the stages enough times in a row. Countless references to the Dragon Ball series, including Shenron, the Fusion Dance, and the Mafuuba. Natraps X has Rockman fighting Bowser, who protects himself from Rockman's shots with an AT Field. Rockman eventually pulls out the Lance of Longinius to finish the job.

comment
Cerebus Syndrome: "Zero", while still being plenty humorous and referential (specially in its first half), is by far the most serious entry: it's the only video in the series with actual dialogue, battles play out almost entirely as dead-serious Dragon Ball Z matches and it explains pretty much the whole plot of the original trilogy, mainly why Sylvia is an evil super-martial artist and the reason she was "captured" at the Devil's Tower.

Big Damn Heroes: Rockman really tries to, but he invariably ends up blowing up for his efforts. The times he does this in "Final" and "Revenge", however, ends up giving Thomas and Mr. X a chance to retreat from certain defeat. In "Revenge", an entire fleet of Famicom spaceships and Space Invaders come to the rescue near the end. They only hold the big bad off for a short moment before they get obliterated entirely, but it gives Thomax enough time to get back up and finish the battle.

Attack Drone: The series features the Gradius Options a couple times: In the first video, Rockman enters the Konami Code and powers-up a wave of popcorn enemies (including giving them Options and Shields) which annihilate him. In "Final", Thomas defeats a wave of enemies and gains an Option that mimics his punches and kicks, then immediately loses it to a poorly-timed roulette.
