Well, it won't take much for it to be awful but I hope it's actually faithful to the series for once.

It'll be really cool if Capcom gets off their asses and makes a game to launch with this, is what I'm thinking.

I'm surprised I'm not surprised.

Man Of Action is working on it, and they have a pretty good track record with animated series, so there's a good chance it won't be garbage. I hope they explore some of the deeper underlying themes of the Mega Man world like the Archie comics do (but without the comic book pacing).

As long as he's super fighting to save the world.

If it's anime it's an instant win but if it's like...y'know, his other iterations, then it's a fail.

If we get a game then that would be cool. I wanna see Mega Man VS Mighty No. 9.

I'm so down. I'm over the decades hiatus of having no cartoons based on video games. Where's my 2015 Super Mario Bros. Super Show? I NEED MY 2015 SUPER MARIO BROS. SUPER SHOW.

This and Sonic Boom will do in the meantime. God bless.

So it's not anime from what I hear (it's the same dudes as Ben 10). Zero interest.

Eh man, times like these I wonder why on earth Capcom couldn't keep their relationship with Disney alive.

Wait it's the Ben 10 guys?

This won't be my new Super Mario Bros Super Show. Lame.

At least there's still always sonic boom
