Summary
Robert Robertson III is a dead man in the making.
Mechaman is not. The legacy will live on; even after Robert is lowered into the ground, a gravestone etched with a used name framing the soil drowning into him; Mechaman will live into oblivion.
Mechaman and Robert are two different people.
Are they? Maybe. Or maybe not. The legacy of Mecha Man hangs heavy on Robert, and the crushing weight of sacrificing everything he has for heroism 'kills' Mecha Man, so they're obviously the same person. Obviously.Series

Summary
“Special,” he echoes. It’s a cruel word, for one under the pretense of living privileged. There was no question of ‘living day-to-day’, no worry of money, where to rest his head at night, where to wash his clothes and what to eat. A singular problem stemming from a barely wilted root. A question of ‘when will you come home?’, ‘why don’t you talk to me anymore?’, ‘is it because I keep getting into trouble?’,
And ‘maybe you should’ve died during that last rescue of yours and really left me alone for good, if you still care”
- IN ESSENCE: A character study on Blue (Robert), and the onset split to this new, entirely different hero 'him', that's not Robert at all. Bringing to life a different person entirely.
