An animated adaptation of one of Capcom's beloved mascots...more specifically, the classic version. Created by Ruby-Spears Productions with Ashi Productions of Japan, this series ran from 1994 to 1995.The overall plot of the cartoon is pretty much like the video games it was based on, with Mega Man having to foil the schemes of Mad Scientist Dr. Wily, who wants nothing more than to Take Over the World. It is somewhat like the American Street Fighter cartoon in that the plots of the individual episodes would tend to get kinda screwy, but was nonetheless good for a usually unintentional laugh. The voice work was provided by The Ocean Group, who would later dub Mega Man Powered Up. The show ran for 2 seasons of 27 episodes.An interview with Joe Ruby has shed light on production of the show.Not to be confused with the 2018 cartoon by Man of Action Studios, Mega Man: Fully Charged. | |

Dream Weaver: The basic principle of behind Wily's dream machine in "Mega Dreams". It lets Wily's robots appear in the dreams of important people (such as the mayor or police chief), which turns them into sleepwalkers who obey his commands. His plan in the episode is to send the machine into space, where he'd be able to control the dreams of anyone on Earth. Dr. Light also builds one of his own, and Mega Man manages to defeat the robots in the astronauts' dreams before commanding them to destroy Wily's machine. | |

Heroic BSoD: Mega Man gets two during his time in the cartoon. Mega loses it after switching bodies with Snake Man; he gets it together just long enough to distract the police chasing him. He suffers a more protracted one in "Mega-Pinocchio". He feels so bad about messing up the battle against Wily that he begins to think that he's a mistake. | |

| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: So this cosmetics bot is under Dr. Wily's control, and straps Roll to a chair. Roll tells the robot to let her go, but Wily gives her a creepy look and goes "Not before I give you the beauty treatment!" Then the robot produces an oversized powderpuff from her chest area (really) and tries to smush it in Roll's face. Roll acts like this is the worst thing in the world that could happen to her. | |

The Worf Effect: Mega Man is easily one of the strongest robots in the world and he gets completely trashed by Vile and Spark Mandrill. He couldn't even dent them. In "Red Gulch", after Wily enhances his robots using pieces of a meteorite, Mega Man can't hurt any of the Robot Masters. Heck, he can't even hurt a Battonton. | |

Adaptational Villainy: Although Proto Man first appears in the games working for Wily, he has a Heel–Face Turn and becomes a frequent ally to Mega Man, if still aloof at times. In the series he is a straight up villain with little to no redeeming qualities and an obsession with defeating Mega Man himself. Essentially with his new persona, the character's playing Bass, a character who wouldn't appear in the games until near the very end of the show's run. | |

Conveyor Belt o' Doom | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_235289d | comment |
Despite Wily and his robots being somewhat savvy, they missed several opportunities to outright kill Mega Man. In "Campus Commandos" the Robot Masters had Mega Man at their mercy, twice. The first time they locked him in a closet and the second time they tied him to gears in a clock and left him alone. In "Brain Bot" they handcuffed Mega Man to the floor and was going to crush him, but they again left him alone instead of staying to make sure he died. In "Showdown at Red Gulch" they had Mega Man completely at their mercy after they knocked him out, but instead of finishing him they tied him to a horse and sent him off into the desert. "Curse of The Lion Men" sees them trap Mega Man in a blast-proof net, before taking him to a cannery some distance away and placing him on the belt leading to the meat grinder, then just leaving the scene, giving him plenty of time to find a way out of the net. | |

Unwanted Assistance: Brain Bot's "help" ranges from merely annoying (trying to give Rush wheels, elaborately stating the obvious) to life-threatening (trying to adjust a jet's gyro-stabilizer in mid flight so that it could operate at peak efficiency). About the third time he tries to "help", Mega Man briefly snaps and yells at him to not touch anything. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Despite playing a bit loose with the source (likely due to the lack of supplementary material at the time), the series does reference the original games from time to time. Annie does the Mega Man hand thing in "Future Shock". Ruby-Spears clearly paid great attention to the artwork, at the very least. Dr. Wily also does the hand thing in "The Strange Island of Dr. Wily" when commanding the giant Stone Bots. Wily refers to the bat enemies he periodically uses throughout the series by their original Japanese names (Battontons). Before he became Mega Man, his name was Rock. Mega Man uses a holographic projector in "The Day the Moon Fell" that looks similar to the Wily alien holographic projector in Mega Man 2. The writers watched the subbed Mega Man: Upon a Star OVAs to get a feel for Wily's vocal characterizations, citing that in the raw footage Wily spoke Japanese with a German accent. At one point, Wily's Skulker is destroyed, and to escape, he uses a smaller, UFO-like ship to escape. Aside from the fact it looks like a UFO, This is functionally identical to his Wily capsules, which he used to escape deadly scenarios after Mega Man 3. | |

Humans Are Flawed | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_32e279c4 | comment |
The pilot episode plays with this a bit. During the flashback, Wily appears to be bitter that Dr. Light seemed to be blaming him for the failure of his robot prototype (which may or may not be an unfinished Proto Man) and believed that Light sabotaged his computer guidance system to take credit for all of the work. Later we see him completing Proto Man while spouting off a Humans Are Flawed Motive Rant complete with Freudian Excuse. All of this is dropped after this episode, however, and is never brought up again in the series. A later episode even shows that Wily had double-crossed Light as far back as when they were in college, so indeed For the Evulz seems to be the more likely motive here. | |

Kick the Dog | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: Wily yelling at his own robots. Among other things, he's called them "nothing but heaps of useless chips!" And Proto Man was one of the 'bots he was yelling at. In "Mega-Pinocchio", his plan was to con Mega into believing he was human so he could plant a chip in him, controlling his mind. However, rather than act on it right away, he spent time toying with Mega Man's mind and gives him existential crises before exerting full control. To make it worse, once he has exerted full control he has Mega Man reprogram all of Dr. Light's robots and has him nearly kill his own family by crushing them when they were trapped in the dumpster. Then, when she comes back to free her brother, Wily orders Mega Man to vaporize Roll. Ice Man does this literally in "Ice Age", kicking Rush and breaking him into pieces. (Rush manages to fix his own body when he regains consciousness, however.) Guts Man also kicks Rush away from him in "Bad Day at Peril Park" when he kidnaps Bobby. And again in "Terror of the Seven Seas", this time getting a pummeling by Mega for his efforts. In "Robo-Spider," Dr. Wily's Robo-Spider kicks both Mega Man and Rush into a building. Rush went to pieces again in "Mega X". Mega, Roll and Rush head out to confront "two weird bots" - and run straight into a blast from Vile's shoulder cannon. Mega and Roll are perfectly fine, Rush is in many pieces and inoperative. | |

In the episode "Bot Transfer", Mega Man has a "Freaky Friday" Flip with Snake Man. For almost the rest of the episode, Mega Man has a major freakout and can barely think straight. He actually tries to run to the police for help, forgetting that he is in the body of one of Wily's Robot Masters. | |

Emergency Temporal Shift | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_36842094 | comment |
Emergency Temporal Shift: The plot of "Future Shock" is kicked off by Mega Man attempting to save Dr. Light from an attack by Dr. Wily in this method using Dr. Light's experimental time machine. When the machine returned without him, Mega Man believed he trapped Dr. Light in the future and set off with Rush to find him, unaware Dr. Light had just been blown out of the machine just before it left. | |

Batman Gambit | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: Ice Man and Air Man spent the bulk of "Ice Age" arguing over who will be Wily's Number Two. The good guys use this to their advantage by making Ice Man think Wily is favoring Air Man and would replace him, leading to him rebelling and stalling Wily long enough for Mega Man to take them all down. | |

Psycho Prototype: Proto Man. He's almost always smirking, and isn't happy unless he's destroying things or fighting Mega Man. In fact, in "Future Shock", he didn't want Wily to finish conquering the world because it would mean less opportunities to kill people. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In the episode "Bot Transfer", Mega Man has a "Freaky Friday" Flip with Snake Man. For almost the rest of the episode, Mega Man has a major freakout and can barely think straight. He actually tries to run to the police for help, forgetting that he is in the body of one of Wily's Robot Masters. The episode "The Day the Moon Fell" gives a realistic look of what will happen to the world if the moon is moved closer to Earth's orbit. The results are not pretty. Mega Man seems to run out of energy a lot, especially since no other Robot Master has this problem, not even his brother Proto Man. Although, considering all the fighting he does (he is often fighting five to seven Robot Masters at once), it does make sense he would drain his energy fairly fast. Some episodes have addressed the fact that Dr. Wily doesn't have Offscreen Villain Dark Matter and needs money to fund his operations. The robots are programmed to think and act like humans, having unique personalities. Some episodes have shown that this ability and the resultant personalities, such as Proto Man's ego, have ruined Wily's plans. Ice Man's jealousy of Air Man also ruined Wily's plan. This has even caused trouble for Mega Man since he's often confused about what is his personality and what is his programming, which leaves him open to Wily's manipulation in "Mega-Pinocchio". While Dr. Light is quick to console Mega when said manipulation results in a building collapsing, he later finds Dr. Light watching the video of his rebuild, musing that he shouldn't have programmed Mega to have self-determination. Even the Big Good has his limits. | |

"I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight: Not said by words, but Roll invokes this trope when she is trying to get through to Mega Man, who is under the influence of Wily's mind-control chip. Mega Man doesn't really listens to her until Dr. Light interferes and interrupts Wily's control, allowing Roll's words to free him. | |

Stock Footage: Mega Man's Power Copying sequence, which begins with a close-up of Mega's face while a wire frame of the ability's chip appears for a few seconds, and ends with Mega feeling rather satisfied as he looks at his Arm Cannon. There's another bit of stock footage where Mega Man jumps back and fires a weapon. If you see Speed Stripes instead of a proper background behind Mega Man as he looks at his Arm Cannon during his Power Copying sequence, you'll know this particular one is about to occur. | |

Proto Man is equally as strong and as smart as Mega Man on top of being a Combat Pragmatist. He has taking Mega Man out several time when he's distracted. | |

Big Good | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_4a852458 | comment |
While Dr. Light is quick to console Mega when said manipulation results in a building collapsing, he later finds Dr. Light watching the video of his rebuild, musing that he shouldn't have programmed Mega to have self-determination. Even the Big Good has his limits. | |

Long-Range Fighter | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_4b248941 | comment |
Long-Range Fighter: Mega Man and most of the Robot Masters fight with blasters or weapons that can be shot long-range. Only Robot Masters like Guts Man and Hard Man specialize in close-range combat, although Mega Man does know karate moves when he's fighting in close quarters. | |

Plot-Driven Breakdown | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_4c455537 | comment |
Plot-Driven Breakdown: Quite a few episodes have these. In "Bro Bots", Proto Man implants a chip on Mega Man that causes him to suffer these in a form of painful shocks. In "Campus Commandos", Proto Man shot Mega's arm cannon, leaving it broken for about half the episode. If the episode takes place near or in water, expect Mega Man to suddenly run out of power at a critical moment. | |

Become a Real Boy: The plot of "Mega-Pinocchio," where an eccentric scientist named Dr. Petto offers to turn Mega into a human, which Mega for some reason wants to become. Unsurprisingly, Petto is actually a robot created by Wily, and instead of turning Mega human, he instead implants a mind-controlling device to make Mega do his bidding. | |

He also stands there as Dr. Wily welded a door shut, and once he left, trying to punch his way out. One-shot character Brain Bot counts as well; he tampers with everything tamperable, oblivious as to whether or not it actually needs to be "fixed" (such as the jet). Despite this, he created some useful inventions. | |

"Second Law" My Ass!: How Three Laws-Compliant the robots are is questionable, but Proto Man has absolutely no problem disobeying the Second Law given how many times he disobeys Wily or even undermines his orders, something no other robot built by Wily can do. (This situation is somewhat mirrored by Bass and Wily's relationship in the games, so there is fandom speculation Protoman might have an overriding perogative in his programming that provides a loophole away from complete obedience.) | |

| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: The decision to change Proto Man from Mega Man's Aloof Big Brother Mysterious Ally to his Worthy Opponent on Wily's side. Given that Dark Man, Proto's impersonator from the fifth game, shows up in the series, it's more likely this was a conscious decision in order to give Mega Man an appropriate rival (Bass from the seventh game didn't exist yet). While some Megaman fans blamed the change on a tonedeaf adaptation, according to an interview the change was requested by Capcom itself. | |

Dream Sequence | |

Dream Sequence: The flashback in the very first episode appears to be this rather than Dr. Light's actual first-hand account of the past, as he thinks Mega Man's electrical brain must be shorting in and out...otherwise, how did either of them know about the parts they weren't there for? | |

Heel–Face Turn | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_617f0563 | comment |
The episode "Bro Bots". In it, Proto Man fakes going straight to implant an inhibitor chip into Mega to keep him from stopping Wily's scheme of the week. Even though he is faking it, he is genuinely surprised when Mega says that he "always wanted a real brother relationship" with him. Later on when his ruse is revealed, Proto Man tries to invoke We Can Rule Together with his brother in exchange for removing the inhibitor chip. Mega Man obviously refuses, causing Wily to point out just how disappointed Proto Man looks about this. | |

Big Brother Instinct: Proto Man can also be this at times. He occasionally helps Mega during his battles, unintentionally or not. Mega Man is this towards his sister Roll to the point that in the pilot episode he is crushed by a monorail train protecting her. In the same episode he tells a lie, something that robots are supposedly incapable of doing, to save Roll from being reprogrammed. | |

Tina McIntyre stowed away on a space shuttle to see her astronaut dad.

Adaptational Badass | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: Roll was originally a mere house robot, but here, she can fight foes off on her own; sometimes with just her cleaning tools. Retroactively subverted however, as after this series aired Capcom started making games not only where you played as Roll, but had her holding her own with the likes of Zero, Ryu, Spider-Man, and Tekkaman Blade. Pharoah Man and Crystal Man have their powers taken away, but they still attempt to fight. Downplayed because Mega Man still manages to defeat them. Ice Man ends up being one of the most vicious Robot Masters thanks to creative use of his ice powers and clever tactics. He manages to defeat Rush, almost defeat Mega Man in a one-on-one fight, and almost takes over Wily's gang with an army of ice bots he has Dr. Light build for him. He even manages to survive until the last two minutes of the episode, outdoing several other Robot Masters in that regard. | |

There's another bit of stock footage where Mega Man jumps back and fires a weapon. If you see Speed Stripes instead of a proper background behind Mega Man as he looks at his Arm Cannon during his Power Copying sequence, you'll know this particular one is about to occur. | |

Bond Villain Stupidity | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_7570a10c | comment |
Bond Villain Stupidity: Dr. Wily had his moments. One that comes to mind was in "20,000 Leaks Under the Sea". After pulling off a clever plan, he managed to trap our heroes in a fake laboratory building that was in fact an enormous robot which then took them underwater. We later find out that he had a self-destruct for the building that he could've just used right at the start and kill them all before they even realized anything was wrong. Instead, he trapped them in an Agony Beam while gloating about his plan, eventually leaving them to their fate, enabling them to make their escape. Not only that, but he apparently left some tools behind that Dr. Light was able to use to help them escape. Despite Wily and his robots being somewhat savvy, they missed several opportunities to outright kill Mega Man. In "Campus Commandos" the Robot Masters had Mega Man at their mercy, twice. The first time they locked him in a closet and the second time they tied him to gears in a clock and left him alone. In "Brain Bot" they handcuffed Mega Man to the floor and was going to crush him, but they again left him alone instead of staying to make sure he died. In "Showdown at Red Gulch" they had Mega Man completely at their mercy after they knocked him out, but instead of finishing him they tied him to a horse and sent him off into the desert. "Curse of The Lion Men" sees them trap Mega Man in a blast-proof net, before taking him to a cannery some distance away and placing him on the belt leading to the meat grinder, then just leaving the scene, giving him plenty of time to find a way out of the net. | |

Cultural Translation | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_7d49d74a | comment |
Cultural Translation: Generally what people tend to think about this series. As this show was mostly a western production, the character designers would go with the style what was the it thing in other western cartoons of its time: muscles. This had the side effect of making Mega Man/Rock and his "sister" Roll look more like teenagers, as opposed to their child-esque appearances in the games. Other than that, most of the characters resembled their video game counterparts, only on 'roids, with the exception being a completely redesigned Roll. The action was also firmly grounded in the United States (most of the time), with one episode featuring Mega Man taking a plasma shot from Proto Man to protect the statue of President Lincoln at the Lincoln Memorial. In another episode, Wily proclaims that New York City is his, presumably talking about "the city" that most episodes take place in. | |

Story-Breaker Power | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_8712e4c9 | comment |
Story-Breaker Power: The games will limit you to one power at a time, but "Cold Steel" shows, near the end, that Mega Man can stack his abilities and use two at the same time. He can also disable the Robot Master's power once he has copied their weapons, leaving them defenseless. Mega Man X, Vile, and Spark Mandrill are immensely overpowered compared to the main cast, as they're from the future. Spark Mandrill nearly kills Mega Man and Roll with only one attack. | |

Token Competent Minion: Of Dr. Wily's many Robot Masters, Proto Man acts as Mega Man's top rival and is the only one able to consistently fight him on even footing; while Cut Man and Guts Man are good at threatening humans, they're much less effective against Mega. Other top lackeys include Dark Man, who only appeared twice but with a good track record, and oneshot baddies like Crystal Man, Top Man, and Pharaoh Man, the latter of whom became famous in the fandom for punching Mega Man after his power is copied. | |

Just a Machine | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_9075ac17 | comment |
Just a Machine: Wily seems to hold this view of robots, except for Proto Man. He treats his robots like tools, rather than machines with feelings. At the beginning of "Ice Age", the kids that Mega Man is tasked with supervising says that he can't help them, since all of his actions are pre-programmed (except they're not). Mega Man, interestingly, seems to have this view of himself at times. When congratulated for his good work, he often brushes it off as something he was just program to do. And in "Mega-Pinocchio", he's confused about why he cared about a statue since he's only a robot. | |

Evil Counterpart: Proto Man to Mega Man. They are both built from the same plans and are the most powerful robots in the world with the ability to copy other Robot Masters' powers. While Mega Man fights for the common good and justice, Proto Man is an Ax-Crazy Blood Knight, who takes delight causing pain and chaos. Dr. Wily to Dr. Light. They are brilliance scientists who have mastered robotics and other fields of studies. Dr. Light uses his brilliance to help others, uplift mankind, and treats his robots like his children. Wily, on the other hand, wants to conquer the world, uses his talents to terrorized mankind, and treats his robots, except Proto Man, like tools. | |

The Only One Allowed to Defeat You | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_9b73b497 | comment |
The Only One Allowed to Defeat You: Only Proto Man is allowed to defeat Mega Man, and he'll gladly remind you of this fact if you try to simply shoot Mega. In a meta example, nobody but Mega Man could defeat Proto Man—when Roll encountered him, she was always defeated. Proto Man seems to have gone back and forth on this, ultimately straying from this over time. In the first season he would often directly disobey Wily playing this trope straight. By the second season he didn't do this as often, and was more willing to go along with Wily's plots, whether Mega Man dies by his hand or not. | |

Fridge Logic | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_9dfd7154 | comment |
Dr. Light has his moments, such as when he wonders aloud "why anyone would bar the outside of a bathroom door" before realizing something bad is brewing. He also stands there as Dr. Wily welded a door shut, and once he left, trying to punch his way out. | |

One-Man Army: Like his game counterpart, Mega Man can take down a horde of Robot Masters. In fact, he's pretty much is the army against Wily since no one literally can stop him as seen in "Future Shock". | |

Merchandise-Driven | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_a19cce82 | comment |
Merchandise-Driven: This series had a respectable amount of merchandising for a syndicated children's cartoon, such as a soundtrack album (featuring songs that were crammed into the end credits, but none of the score) and a potential deal with Marvel to adapt the cartoon into a comic (which fell through), but at the center of the merch was the toyline from Bandai. As a nod to his mimicry ability, the Mega Man figure's Mega Buster could be switched with other weapons. Bandai apparently had some creative input on the series, such as by having the producers introduce a vehicle for Mega (the Land Blazer) so they could make a toy out of it. But with sales below expectations, Bandai cancelled several toy lines and got fussy with Capcom, and as a result, Capcom canceled both the toyline and the series. Of the action figures, the Bomb Man figure is the rarest as it was pulled out of stores shortly after the Oklahoma City bombing. Due to its rarity, you can expect it to be very expensive if you find it anywhere. | |

The Butler Did It: Played straight in "Electric Nightmare". When Mega Man is busy cleaning up after a battle with Dr. Wily, the Butler robot welds the door shut, puts a hole in it and sends a pump full of acid into the bathroom and floods it with acid in an attempt to kill him. Even Mega Man himself lampshades this. The maid and the nanny were also trying to sabotage him in the same episode. The butler, maid, and nanny were under Dr. Wily's influence. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: "Mega-Pinocchio", odd premise aside, was one of the most serious episodes of the show, involving Wily besmirching Dr. Light's name, Mega Man having existential crises, him nearly killing his own family twice, and an attack on the White House. It ends with Rush doing something silly. "Bro Bots" ends likewise, though it could be argued that it was to cheer Mega (and the audience) up. In the episode, Mega Man is tortured by a scramble chip, used and betrayed by his own brother, his family and a top government official are nearly murdered, and Mega Man is forced to fight his treasonous brother, who returns to Wily's side. | |

You Don't Look Like You | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_a4e3759e | comment |
You Don't Look Like You: The cartoon changed some Robot Master designs. Roll looks much older, loses her dress and instead tends to wear a jumpsuit. Eddie is green rather than red. From the first game's Robot Masters: Cut Man now has a puppet-like mouth. Guts Man has a blue lower jaw. Ice Man has C-3PO's oral design, though his mouth flashes as he speaks. Downplayed Example: Bomb Man has a more defined beak, much like a Hammer Bro. Downplayed Example: Fire Man has fire drawn on his blasters. From Mega Man 2's Robot Masters: Metal Man seems to have red shades covering (or being) his eyes and can wield his sawblades like swords. Air Man now averts the Cephalothorax trope and has a defined head. His eyes also appear to be red glasses, which makes him look slightly more menacing than his game counterpart, and he has four blades in his chest fan. Wood Man now looks like a man who wears a log as a helmet and has logs as cuffs. From the Mega Man 3 Robot Masters: Gemini Man and Hard Man have noses on their faces. Snake Man has a puppet mouth. Spark Man has mouth cover. From the Mega Man 4 Robot Masters: Bright Man has a solar panel on his chest that charges his Flash Stopper, and has a yellow face. Toad Man, while he is still a Cephalothorax like Air Man used to be, has a mouth. Downplayed Example: Drill Man has more pronounced elbows. Pharoah Man had his colour scheme changed. Ring Man has only one hand, with his left one now an Arm Cannon that he uses to fire his ring boomerangs. Dust Man has a puppet-like mouth plate, with his vacuum being moved back. Dive Man has propellers in his feet, but no longer has a keel-shaped chest, nor does he fire Dive Missiles from it, instead firing them from a cannon on his left arm. From the Mega Man 5 Robot Masters: Gravity Man has a G on his feet. Stone Man has a blue tube on each shoulder and his hand can become a blaster, which is how he uses his Power Stone. Napalm Man was given a head in the animated series, although his only appearance was in the opening. Crystal Man has a teal body to match his artwork, rather than green. His Crystal Eye comes from his hands. | |

Ascended Extra: Dark Man, the robot posing as Proto Man in 5, gets two major parts in two episodes, a pretty cool voice, an awesome power, and he's even competent to boot! Snake Man was pretty much the fourth member of Wily's personal Robot Master team, considering how many episodes and how much screen time he had. He would also alternate this role with Bomb Man and Bright Man, depending on the episode. | |

For the Evulz | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_adfd3165 | comment |
For the Evulz: Wily's motivation seems to be this: The pilot episode plays with this a bit. During the flashback, Wily appears to be bitter that Dr. Light seemed to be blaming him for the failure of his robot prototype (which may or may not be an unfinished Proto Man) and believed that Light sabotaged his computer guidance system to take credit for all of the work. Later we see him completing Proto Man while spouting off a Humans Are Flawed Motive Rant complete with Freudian Excuse. All of this is dropped after this episode, however, and is never brought up again in the series. A later episode even shows that Wily had double-crossed Light as far back as when they were in college, so indeed For the Evulz seems to be the more likely motive here. In "Bot Transfer" he goes out of his way to antagonize Mega Man when he could just steal the money he wants from banks while Mega Man's in Geneva. | |

Artistic Age: Mega Man looks 21 and (for the most part) acts like it, but a good deal of promotional material gives the impression that he's a teenager. And all of that despite the fact he's a robot who was built, at most, a handful years before the series starts. | |

Colony Drop | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_b3eecaae | comment |
Colony Drop: One of Wily's ingenious schemes involved using a contraption to pull the moon out of orbit and bring the Moon close enough to the Earth that the resulting gravitational shift would send the Earth's climate into chaos. The human race would still be wiped out, save for maybe a few survivors — who, Wily hoped, would submit to his power after that. Even his Robot Masters thinks this plan is crazy. | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live: Mega Man leaping in front of a shot meant for... the Lincoln Memorial. The best part is that Mega Man himself knows it was crazy and asks Dr. Light why the heck he took a shot to protect a statue. The answer is more-or-less that Mega Man's humanity wouldn't allow Lincoln to be destroyed. Otto Raptor from "Robosaur Park" believes mankind should've gone extinct, not the dinosaurs. Otto's a human. And dinosaurs went extinct 61 millions years before the first ancestor of humans even appeared. Tina McIntyre stowed away on a space shuttle to see her astronaut dad. While that was silly at best, she crosses into this when seeing her father threatened by Wily and the Robot Masters for a password...and she runs out and is promptly held hostage. What really brings this scene into Idiot Ball territory was the fact that Mega Man was winning against Wily's robots when she ran out and became a hostage. Evelyn Ray, who had no idea Dr. Wily was bad news until she was hypnotized. She even met with him willingly, despite him trying to take over the world about 17 times by then. Frankenbot was so dumb he blew himself up with his own turret, despite there being only one that Mega fixed to point straight down. Brain Bot, despite his name, somehow thought it was a good idea to adjust the efficiency of a jet plane while he was flying in it. | |

No-Nonsense Nemesis | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_b99bed67 | comment |
No-Nonsense Nemesis: In "The Big Shake", Wily discovered Light and Mega Man were working on a device to stop his earthquake machine. His response was to direct a maximum-powered earthquake directly at Light's lab in an attempt to kill them all, or at the very least wreck the machine. In "Future Shock", Wily is aware that if Mega Man makes it to the time machine, his conquest of the future will end. So he orders Proto Man to rig it to explode. Catch phrases may be a free action, but Power Copying is not, as Pharaoh Man will happily demonstrate by punching Mega Man in the face. A couple of Wily's death traps were fairly savvy; the robots have attempted to kill Mega while he's weakened or unconscious, and in "Brain Bots" Mega Man was handcuffed to the floor as a spiked ceiling descended on him. This occurrence in "Robo-Spider": Upon discovering Dr. Light made an antidote to his retrograde virus in "Robosaur Park", Wily immediately decides to destroy it. After Mega intervenes and they play keep-away with the antidote, it ends up back in Wily's hands. Wily then hops in the Skullker to fly away from the heroes and destroy the antidote someplace where they can't interfere. | |

Improbable Aiming Skills | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_bcd27e37 | comment |
Improbable Aiming Skills: Mega Man is often called a hot shot by both his foes and allies. He takes out Metal Man by ricocheting his blast through an air vent. | |

Mind Screw: The ending of "Night of the Living Monster Bots" implies that the entire episode was one of Evelyn's movies. There's also the possibility that the heroes recovered the battle footage Wily intended to release as a movie, and they released it instead. Also, in Electric Nightmare, Mega Man is seemingly killed and Doctor Wily uses this as his chance to take over all electrical appliances. However, when Mega Man cheats death, Wily still has not started! | |

Shout-Out | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In 'Future Shock', Roll calls enemy robots Blaster Masters. Rush is a robotic expy of Scooby Doo. The mobile prison in "20,000 Leaks Under the Sea" bears a resemblance to an AT-AT Walker. In "Cold Steel", Mega called Spark Man Sparkster. In "Mega Dreams", Roll walks out of a theater advertising The Last Dragon, which is an actual movie. She even comments how she loves kung-fu movies, which it is. Doris the robot maid says "Hasta la vista, Mega Man!" The revival of the classic series have their own shout-outs to the animated series: 9 references the plot of "Mega Pinocchio", with Wily reprogramming Dr. Light's robots in an effort to tarnish his name. Also, the design of Fakeman was clearly influenced by the police-bots that are common in the series. 10 makes a clear reference to "Robosaur Park". Specifically, Mega Man and Roll are both infected with The Virus, Roll is offered the (experimental) vaccine first, but she declines, saying that Mega Man is the only one who can stop Wily, so he should take it instead. | |

Outside-Context Problem | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_cc7fae30 | comment |
Outside-Context Problem: The appearance of Vile and Spark Mandrill, given they're from the future. Their armor is literally centuries ahead of any present-day weapons, and they are able to shrug off attacks from Mega Man and Dr. Wily alike. Just as Vile and Spark Mandrill in "Mega X" are completely out of context for Mega Man, X himself is an out of context foe to Wily and his robots. When they did try to fight him, he catches Cut Man's weapon and crushes it like it was made of tinfoil. He later copies Snake Man's weapon and uses a supercharged version of the search snake to tear apart Wily's giant doomsday cannon in a matter of seconds. The Lion Men, who invaded the world and turned other people into Lion Men with eye beams. This goes both was as the Lion Men are completely baffled by the existence of robots who now live alongside humanity and are immune to the hypnotic effects of their curse. They later get around this by having an enslaved Wily build a device to control the robots as well. | |

The Chessmaster | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_d62dd556 | comment |
The Chessmaster: Wily took this role in "The Big Shake" thanks to a microtransmitter; Dr. Light noted how he was always one step ahead of them. He takes this role again in "Mega X", coming up with the plan to flood the plasma plant and have the Mavericks do the work, and getting to use the lightanium rods before Vile and Spark Mandrill try to bring them to the future. | |

Reset Button: In "Future Shock", the reason the future turned out badly is because Mega Man wasn't around to stop Dr. Wily in the past. Both he and Wily are aware that if he makes it to the time machine, Wily's conquest of the future will end. Sure enough, Mega Man makes it and the Bad Future is erased. | |

Animesque | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_db08a39d | comment |
Animesque: The series was co-animated by a Japanese company and thus, has moments of this. Some of the Wild Takes the characters (mostly the Robot Masters) sometimes do◊. Sometimes the characters' eyes, particularly Roll's, take on an anime look. In "Crime of the Century", the rich women at the party look very animesque. More than one publication has even mistaken the show for an anime. This included the PlayStation 2 version of Mega Man Anniversary Collection and the Fox Family Channel, which aired the show as part of their "Anime Hour" block. | |

Manchurian Agent: In "Mega-Pinocchio", Mega Man is himself as long as Wily gives him no commands though his mind helmet. As soon as Wily does, however, Mega Man would unquestionably obey any order. Mega Man seems to remember the order as an emotion or a part of his human thinking so he thinks nothing of it. Although, part of that is caused by how Wily phrases his commands: like telling Mega Man that he's feeling fear, making him drop bombs on a building, or him feeling pity toward Guts Man, letting him escape. | |

Standard Female Grab Area: Averted with Roll. When she was captured, she was usually grabbed by her waist. In one instance when the 'bots were on the moon, she was bodily lifted by her shoulder due to the reduced gravity. Played straight with Proto Man. While he wasn't rendered helpless, Wily's hand on his upper arm was enough to stop him from going after Mega Man. | |

The mind-control chip he plants on Mega Man along with the helmet he uses to give Mega Man commands. Dr. Light creates his own version of the mind helmet to help free Mega Man from Wily's control.

Ridiculously Human Robots | |
| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_e4900915 | comment |
Ridiculously Human Robots: Just about every robot on the show. They have human personalities and feelings to the point that they might as well be humans. What separates the humans from robots is free will. The Robot Masters can't disobey Wily no matter how crazy his schemes become. Whether or not Protoman and Megaman have free will is left more ambigious; while they seem to act with it, Megaman occasionally mentions his programming as a limitation and Dr. Light tends to treat them like his children rather than give them direct orders. | |

Evil Feels Good: What Proto Man firmly believes and tries to get Mega Man to feel the same. Wily might as well believe this too since he thinks near the end of "Mega-Pinocchio" that Mega Man willingly turns on his family because the power of evil is stronger than good. | |

No Waterproofing in the Future: In the games, Mega Man sank in water (except for 8, where he could swim for some reason), but had no problem staying under, being a robot. In the series, Mega Man experiences rapid loss of energy when underwater. Bonus ouch points: It's mostly limited to him. | |

Trash Landing: In one episode, Mega Man is being overwhelmed by Wily's bots and needs to make a getaway off a bridge. He spends a superblast on Guts Man, knocking him into the other bots, and while they're picking themselves up from that, Mega Man and Rush jump off the bridge onto a garbage barge to get away. Surfacing from it with a banana peel on his head, he wonders aloud whether Wily's bots or himself have the worse end of the deal. | |

| Mega Man (Ruby-Spears) / int_fccd06b6 | comment |
Beware the Nice Ones: Mega Man qualifies as this. He is polite, kind to everyone he meets, and is always willing to help, but he's merciless towards Wily's robots. He blows them up and destroys them in some times amusing ways. One time Guts Man kicked Rush into the ocean, so Mega shot him about 6 times in a row. Normally in the show it only takes 1 or 2 shots to down a Robot Master. Roll is this too. She is sweet and kind, although a little temperamental. She is also just as merciless as her brother when it comes to fighting Wily, especially when she finds out that Top Man was just using her and pretended to like her. | |

Pet the Dog: The episode "Bro Bots". In it, Proto Man fakes going straight to implant an inhibitor chip into Mega to keep him from stopping Wily's scheme of the week. Even though he is faking it, he is genuinely surprised when Mega says that he "always wanted a real brother relationship" with him. Later on when his ruse is revealed, Proto Man tries to invoke We Can Rule Together with his brother in exchange for removing the inhibitor chip. Mega Man obviously refuses, causing Wily to point out just how disappointed Proto Man looks about this. In "Brain Bots", he compliments Mega's shooting skills even as Wily's vehicle goes down. | |
