Dang it, why did I already use "The Monkey Shocks You" as a title during my Yoshi's Island LP? What a waste. I'm also glad that I had a few of these recorded in advance, because my throat is probably too sore for much commentary right now. Anyway, for stage number 6, we head off to Spark Mandrill's domain, which is a power plant because pretty much every electric boss in Mega Man games is in a power plant. There actually aren't many electric-themed enemies in the stage, but it does have our first sub-boss. Spark Mandrill himself is one of those bosses that is doable but will gladly chew you up and spit you out if you give him half a chance. Often, by the time you can tell which attack he's using, it's too late to escape it, or you'll get away from one only to be caught by the next before you get a chance to dodge. Upon defeat, he gives us the Electric Spark, which is a fairly straightforward weapon. Oh, and one thing I forgot to mention during the playthrough is that you actually can get the heart tank in this one without the boomerangs; it just takes some very precisely-timed wall-jumping.
