The Genki Manapult, also known as Professor Genki's Super Ballistic Manapult,^[1][2] is a vehicle in the Funtime! Pack DLC for Saints Row: The Third.

"This little beauty is Professor Genki's Super Ballistic Manapult, capable of vacuuming up pesky pedestrians and firing them as human cannonballs across the city."

— Drew Holmes^[1]

Not to be confused with the Genkimobile.

Description Edit

The vehicle is a white Betsy^[3][4], with Professor Genki's large grinning face attached to the front, and a mounted cannon on its back. Adorned to the side of the vehicle is the same grinning face, this time appearing simply as a logo, with the words "SUCK IT UP" written on the side door. It is a very fragile vehicle and it takes little damage to destroy it.

This vehicle was only available to those who pre-ordered Saints Row: The Third, as part of Professor Genki's Hyper Ordinary Pre-Order Pack, .^[5] This DLC was later released as a standalone DLC named Funtime! Pack.

The Super Ballistic Manapult also appears in Genkibowl VII during the Sad Panda Skyblazing activity where it is used to blast the player back into the sky after they clear all the mascots off of the rooftop. In this incarnation the Manapult resembles more of a carriage rather than a truck.

Genki CannonEdit

This vehicle possesses a unique weapon called the Genki Cannon, which can suck up and fire any pedestrian, but not corpses. It can hold a maximum of six people.^[6] These can be used as projectiles, however they do almost no damage and are difficult to aim.

The Protagonist can be sucked up, and the player can aim and fire the cannon, which can be useful for accessing rooftops, where collectibles may be found. When The Protagonist is inside the cannon, pressing the Action button will exit the vehicle.

HornEdit

Similar to the Gat Mobile horn, the horn on this vehicle may play a quote, from Professor Genki:

• "Fire it up!"
• "Ethical!"
• "Murder Time Fun Time!"
• "Ethical climax!"
• "Whore!"

Trivia Edit

• There is no Cheat Code for this vehicle.

• PC Gamer's preview on Saints Row: The Third referred to the vehicle as both a "manipult" ^[sic] and "Professor Genki's Super Ethical Reality Climax cat-faced pick-up truck".^[7]
• The word "manapult" is a portmanteau of "man" and "catapult"; referring to its ability to fire people into the air.
• A real life Super Ballistic Manapult was shown by Volition, Inc. at San Diego Comic-Con International 2011.
• The default Radio Station is 102.4 Klassic FM and will always play Sousa-The Stars and Stripes Forever. It will even play it if the Station is disabled.
• The rim cover of the vehicle reads "Genki Mobile", despite there being another vehicle of that name.^{[screenshot?]}
• The Genki Manapult resembles the black semi in the movie "Maximum Overdrive", based on a short story by Stephen King
• When The Protagonist is inside the cannon, anyone walking past the vehicle may also be sucked in, but The Protagonist will be fired first.
• If there is a Homie present after The Protagonist is fired from the cannon, they will get in and drive to The Protagonist.
• Despite their sheer size, the Genki Manapult is capable of sucking up Brutes and shooting them just as high as regular pedestrians.
• The cannon can be used to fire The Protagonist inside otherwise inaccessible structures, such as cargo containers or through the closed doors of the Syndicate Tower.
