The Martian (火星人?, Kasei Hito) is an alien from Mars that appears alongside with Translator Tom in First Contact in Rhythm Heaven Megamix and alongside with Farmer Bob in long version Second Contact.
History
Sometime before the events of First Contact, human astronauts landed on Mars, and left behind pork rice bowls. These became very popular with Martians, who plan open a restaurant serving them in the future.
Shortly before Translator Tom landed on Mars, the researchers of the mission decided to brainstorm ideas of what Martian life might look like. Some researchers suggest robotic or humanoid designs that intrigue the others, while another draws a jellyfish-like creature. The group laughs off this idea as unrealistic, and are later speechless to see that the real Martian closely resembled that design.[1]
During First Contact, Translator Tom helps the Martian deliver its friendly message to the people of Earth. After this, the Martian is welcomed to Earth. Sometime following this, Earth and Mars have established a culinary exchange program.
It is unknown whether the Martian in Second Contact is the same individual, as a Martian spacecraft is seen in the field, suggesting it may have recently landed.
