Not that piece of garbage

>>14784003
That felt like it had all the elements to be something good but it was such a mistake failure.

Favorite for me is Rockman.exe

>>14784003
Battle Network and Legends. Battle Network has some of my favorite gameplay in any video game ever, and I love the "ruins explorer" post-apocalyptic theme of Legends, as well as the characters and enemies.

I wish Starforce had a proper boss battle against Megaman.exe though.

This will never be a thing

Battle Network and X

I acknowledge all the X series flaws but still I enjoyed the gameplay better than I did on Zero or ZX, too much focus on the Z-Saber and not much weapon variety.

Also, for all the shit that gets thrown on X5, it gave me the hypest shit of my childhood.

BN is great, 2 and 3 are usually the fan favorites but BN6 had the perfect folder building and battle balance overall, too bad they nailed it just the final game, kinda the same that happened with Starforce 3.

>>14784003
>Rockman

It's Mega Man you Goddamn weeb

My favorite adaptation is probably the Shooting Star anime. It wasn't great, but I loved the visual style with the subdued colors and I like the general set up of Star Force in the first place.

As for games, ZX or Battle Network overall, though Star Force 3 is my single favorite Mega Man game.

>>14784003
I actually like starforce gameplaywise, can't really commentate on the anime but I didn't find the shift in perspective between be and starforce to be terrible

Because all three games are terrible.

Hitoshi Ariga's Megamix and Gigamix are cool. Second place goes to Koji Izuki's take on Mega Man & Bass (shame that the rest of that manga's chapters will never get scanlated though).

>>14784063

It was always a thing in the 90's, take a look at those power rangers toys for example.

Anyway, the tv show was goofy as fuck but it's kinda enjoyable. I liked that episode where X appears and he's a shit wrecker powerhouse

Speaking about it, I haven't hear more news about that new MegaMan show but probably will be just meme humor and won't have good action at all.

>>14784484
Yeah, the show had an odd kind of charm to it (depending on the episode), that I'll agree with. Plus they sneaked in little nods to the games whenever they could.

Sadly, the Man of Action one seems like it'll be the equivalent of someone adapting Mega Man after they just heard of the games yesterday (seriously, look at the interview in here: http://www.rockman-corner.com/2016/08/new-mega-man-cartoon-to-air-on-disney.html).

>>14784003
The one you posted is not even /m/ related. In fact, fuck the Battle Network universe in general, the whole setting is completely nonsensical, their whole concept of internet is stupid, and it's barely connected with Mega Man anyway so you can safely ignore it.

>What is your favorite Rockman adaptation?
I have only read a little bit of the Archie Comics Mega Man but it seemed to be good enough, better than the cartoon at least.

Sure, Starforce 1 and 2 are bad, nobody deny that but Starforce 3 really stepped up the game also:
The protagonist man up in the end of Starforce 1 and in Starforce 3 he's a brave space cop, he doesn't even need to hide his identity anymore.

The battle system in 3 is way better than SF1 and 2, a lot of different transformations that can be combined to get more abilities from both and a lot more cards making up a good variety of folders (you also get to pick the cards from the first 2 starforce games).

Starforce 3 is pretty much like Battle Network 6 with 3 times more content.

Probably Ariga's Megamix and Gigamix books. They were cool interpretations of events and I can't get enough of his art style and designs.

As far as shows go I loved the .EXE anime as a kid (Dubbed NT Warrior down here). Battle Network was how I was first introduced to the Mega Man series so I'm always a little biased when it comes to it. Plus cyber/digital space themed things are rad.

>>14784026

Starforce 1 was a decent intro and could have been improved, but they figured they'd hook the BN crowd and therefore didn't even try with 2, then they actually did try with 3 but it was too late, the damage was done.

The anime though, never had a prayer because thanks to .exe losing half its timeslot, they never had enough time to do anything. It didn't help that the entire second half was basically just killing time until SF2 was about to come out so they could do the finale.

It was just a mess. It could have been great but poor decisions and deperation to reverse the decline since BN4 ended up killing Starforce, and Megaman in general.

>>14784970
The first two are still decent I think, but SF3 blows both way out of the water.

I read on TVTropes that Geo's mom is quite fanservicey in the anime?

Zero is my absolute favorite, the designs, the setting, the bad guys, the allies, absolutely everything is gold.

Dash its my second one.

Although I also enjoyed quite a bit the X series, specially X5, I loved the bosses of that one together with X3 bosses are still my favorite batch of bosses ever.

Probably the X series when it comes to adaptations, I'm also a diehard fan of the Classic series. It's been a long while since touched BN but I remember liking it and the ZX series looks fun. How's the ZX series?
And technically not MM but because it's gonna get brought up eventually, I liked MN9 fuck you ;_;

Only one game? Give me Legends 3 then, as it has been waiting for a resolution to it's cliffhanger the longest. More than one game? Give me annual classic Mega Man games in the style of 9 and 10, as those are my favorite games in the series, must not be that expensive to make, and I would love to have more of it. Alternatively, make a Classic game as a 3D platformer like Ratchet & Clank.

Definitely skip 2, but I'm not sure why that anon recommends skipping the first game. It's surprisingly well-written and the gameplay isn't bad enough to warrant a skip.

If you really want to know what happens in the second game, check this LP: http://lparchive.org/Mega-Man-Star-Force-2-Zerker-x-Saurian/

The LPer completely snaps the game's difficulty in half and shittalks the awful writing nonstop. That is the only proper mindset to that garbage.

I'm currently watching the show, the short haired idol girl gets entire service episodes. Her scenes playing/lazing on the beach have more animation that the rest of the series alltogether
