Assuming You Have Cable, That Is
In case you’ve deafened yourself to the incoming tide of retro reboots, there’s a new Mega Man cartoon out! It’s most definitely for children, but maybe you have some of those? In any case, all you need is a cable subscription and you can stream them through Cartoon Network.
Even without the cable sub, you can still check out the first two episodes for free online. As I mentioned, they are very much children’s entertainment. But that’s totally fine! The perpetually immature among us (such as myself) have gotten pretty used to entertainment that somehow targets us anyway, and that’s not always going to be the case.
Also, I defy anyone to come up with concrete examples of Mega Man cartoons that somehow appeal to people of all ages. All I can remember is that godawful version of Mega Man from Captain N, the one who sounded like a chain-smoking child in ill-fitting cosplay. That wasn’t even for people who played the games. The first two episodes of Mega Man: Fully Charged have him facing off against Fire Man. You can check out a short clip of the action below. Apparently Mega Man also copies his opponent’s mental state? A curious development, indeed.
