Summary[]
Segata Sanshiro was the Japanese mascot for the Sega Saturn. He is commonly credited with saving the Saturn in Japan. He did this by fiercely attacking anybody who didn't play a Sega Saturn or otherwise devote their life to a task. In his final commercial, Segata saved Sega of Japan HQ from a missile fired from an unknown company. While he seemingly died, multiple cameos proved he was alive and well. Segata truly returned in Project X Zone 2, where he helped the heroes stop Ouma's plans to unite all worlds in to one chaotic universe. He also is implied to be the human martial artist that appeared in the Chaos Emerald Championship arc of the Sonic the Hedgehog comic, where he fought and lost to Sonic by TKO
