Is this actually from the new series or just some fan art?

Whatever. Being a Mega Man fan sort of leaves you numb to disappointment after awhile.

>Aimed at kids 6 to 9, as well as parents who grew up playing the video games, the series will follow Mega Man’s newly-introduced alter-ego, Aki Light, a normal, upbeat, schoolboy robot who, when activated, re-forms into a suit of impenetrable armor. Other characters from the games and new characters, including Mega Mini, will also be featured.

Best case scenario: we get some good Mega Man vidya and this show could be about a young robot controlling his power, kinda have a old Powerpuff Girls-esque tone/humor.

Worst case scenario: badly animated and ends up being the new, main canon for Mega Man.

Look on the bright side. Adults won't buy the toys because of the new design, and kids won't because kids don't give a shit about MM, so the series will be canceled in about a month.

So they decide to make a new Mega Man animated series,but rather than base it on an already existing Mega Man franchise, they do their own take on it.

As a kid I enjoyed the DiC cartoon,although MegaMan and Roll suffered from that 90's bullshit design,Wily,Light,Rush and all of the robot masters stayed pretty true.

Not to mention the fact that the sequences where he absorbs a robot masters power were pretty special as a kid.Playing the games I had always imagined it looking something like that

I stopped playing after X3 and focused on girls,sports,comics,and other shit.

although my memories are few,they are great.To see Rock like this is just heartbreaking.

You guys are pricks. You act like your series was cancelled while being in its prime, while it was sucking on nostalgia for the last two games. You act like you are the most abused series from Capcom (not even close). People turned on Flynn the moment he stopped writing.

I had hopes and dreams for the new Mega Man series and all of them were fucking crushed the second I saw this shit.

Look at this garbage. It just screams "American reboot" the second you fucking look at it. Weird ass neon, fucking smarmy ass face, you can just see the SUPER SRS BSNS writing oozing out of the damn picture. This one piece of art overall looks like something shat out of DA.
Likely there's no need for conjecture on plot, which will completely ignore the actual games and will instead go do its own thing, whatever the hell that is.

Fucking kill me. Some way to celebrate a 30th anniversary.

When'll this shit end? Reboots and remakes out the fucking ass of the same shit every time, and half of that fucking reboots and remakes of localizations. Astro Boy, Voltron, Power Rangers, it never fucking stops. Even American IPs like Robocop and Total Recall weren't spared and the remakes keep coming.

Ariga's Mega and Giga Mix were far better.

Archie's comic suffered from trying to do the boss fights in the traditional manner one-after-another, which just meant they were getting killed every other panel which was just a slog to go through. Admittedly the first Mega Mix story by Ariga had that too, but he got better after that. On top of that, it took them forever to get Mega Man 3 going because they kept fooling around with other stuff like Quake Woman. Hell, the Sonic crossovers were probably the worst offenders in how they outright said "oops, you ran outta time mega man! Here's an unrelated crossover!"

Also whoever that Emerald Spears leader was was the worst original character they could've come up as the villain.

Went a little over there, but you still see my point, don't you? That and >>83185716 says it all.

Why do you think games like Wonderful 101 and Supercharged Robot Vulkaiser are considered classics? Because they harken back to the silly colorful sentai days, before everything needed a grumpy white man violently murdering everyone in brown environments.
>>
>>83186101

Classics according to what retarded standard? Nerds on the internet? Shit Wonderful 101 is from like 4 years ago and barely anyone bought it, how is that in any way considered a classic? Get your head out of your own assumptions man.

This show might very well be shit, but there is no sign here that it'll be serious or try-hard, he's only dark blue because the tron-lights would otherwise not stand out.

>Classics according to what retarded standard? Nerds on the internet?
I'm basing it on the fact that neither game mentioned wanted to follow the tired out trends of modern gaming. It didn't want to be another post-ironic meta pixel RPG with furries and tumblr agendas, and it didn't want to be another Call of Duty clone with shooting and brown. Even if neither game sold very much, they went against the grain and dared to celebrate what made old power ranger-like shows so good, and why people fondly remember them. Even if I don't like several things from W101, can you honestly say that it didn't try to bring back that feeling of watching an old episode of Power Rangers, but in a good way?

>This show might very well be shit, but there is no sign here that it'll be serious or try-hard,
That's what they said about Sonic's comic debut. And Sonic 06. And pretty much every piece of media made after that. At best, we'll end up with a Sonic Boom-tier cartoon which has its occasional funny moments. At worst we'll be drudging down dark and gritty reboot central or another high school comedy about feelings and prom dates and garbage and the occasional "educational episode" and according to the info we have so far, the latter is more likely.

Can't have a product be fun and entertaining any more. now it's gotta carry a message, like it's freaking Steven Universe or something. No thank you.

This nigga is correct.
You could plot the series exactly the same but have the game adaptations carry an ACTUAL PLOT instead of segregated boss encounters and it would be so much better.

The writer was working at the big picture instead of telling a satisfactory story.
>>
>>83186347

It did aim for old sentai shows, but I don't find that anything amazing nor deserving of a CLASSIC badge. There's still a good number of lighthearted franchises, even among indie gaming communities.

Shit Shovel Knight is a better Megaman game than Mighty No 9 will probably be and that is so light-hearted it'll make you smile for hours playing it.

I just think it's too early to make the call that this show will be like that, we literally have one picture and the information that he's a school kid.

>There's still a good number of lighthearted franchises, even among indie gaming communities.
True, true. But still, the latest tide of modern gaming has convinced people that games need to be dark and mature, or not have gameplay at all and should instead be "cinematic". Look at pic related, for example, and tell me if you think it's satire, or a real article.

>Shit Shovel Knight is a better Megaman game than Mighty No 9 will probably be and that is so light-hearted it'll make you smile for hours playing it.
Also true. No arguments there.

>I just think it's too early to make the call that this show will be like that, we literally have one picture and the information that he's a school kid.
Normally I'd agree, but considering Capcom and Comcept's recent ventures into monetizing their respective blue boys, it's hard to show optimism or even a pang of hope for them doing anything right.

We do have a Zero game by Platinum, though.
They gave him white short hair for some reason though. And Sigma was a senator or something. But Rush was in it so I guess he's still around in the future so that's good.

Let's be real here, a Mega Man cartoon would be doomed to fail no matter what in this day and age. Even if used the original designs and was competently written, it would get shoved into a terrible timeslot, and be canceled when the merch didn't sell or it attracted an audience the execs didn't want it to.

I would take a Viewtiful Joe game being made by Platinum first, since that series never got its third main adventure, so it ends on a cliffhanger. The creator behind VJ works for them as well.
