Customer Reviews of Megaman - Battle for the Future (Vol. 2)

Excellent series
If you didn't know it, Megaman, the video game hero, was featured in an animated series from 1994-1996. However, the series was not just a retelling of the game storyline, it used many unique plots none of the games ever had. Several substantial differences between the games and cartoons are evident (robot masters are much taller, series takes place in America and not Japan, Roll is Megaman's sidekick, etc.)Differences between cartoons and games aside, this is a pretty good cartoon, with plenty of action. Believe it or not, for the most part I like the TV series plot BETTER than the game plot, despite a few blunders the TV series has made. This set contains the entire second season, which consists of nearly five hours worth of material (a steal of a deal if you ask me.) Read on for some episode summaries.

Campus Commandos - Dr. Light creates a school for robots, which Dr. Wily attempts to conquer so he can gain their knowledge for his own robots.

The Day the Moon Fell - Dr. Wily invents a tractor beam he uses to pull the moon close to earth, which causes extremely turbulent weather.

Showdown at Red Gulch - Dr. Wily gives his robots pieces of a meteor that recently fell. With these in hand, Wily's robots become seemingly invincible.

Terror of the Seven Seas - Dr. Wily creates a huge sea fortress. Megaman infiltrates it with hopes of destroying it before Wily can unleash it on the world.

Mega Dreams - Dr. Wily invents a device that allows his robots to enter people's dreams. They can hypnotize people this way. He hopes to use it on a space station's personnel so that he can look over every living being in the world.

Robo-Spider - Dr. Wily creates a huge robotic spider which seems to be unbeatable.

Master of Disaster - Dr. Wily finds a magic lamp, and orders the genie inside to destroy Megaman.

Night of the Living Monster Bots - Dr. Wily builds robots based on famous monsters. He decides to shoot a movie with them, which he will use to spread fear of his creations.

Curse of the Lion Men - A comet reawakens a series of humanoid lions, who hypnotize humans and robots alike into working for them, including both Dr. Light and Dr. Wily.

Brain Bot - Dr. Light creates a super smart robot. Dr. Wily will stop at nothing to obtain it.

Bro Bots - Protoman supposedly gives up being evil and fights alongside Megaman.

Bad Day at Peril Park - At a new amusement park, Dr. Wily hypnotizes people into thinking they are robots. He then orders them to destroy Megaman.

Mega X - Two extremely powerful robots from the future come to steal Dr. Light's titanium rods, which they can use to finance a war on humans in their own time. But another robot comes from the future as well, and this one is an ally.

Crime Of The Century - Dr. Wily develops a series of devices that allow toys to work for him. Oddly enough, this works well.

Like I said, this is an awesome cartoon. If you like the games, check it out. The lack of accuracies may derail the experience if you're a die hard fan of the games though, so you need to watch it with an open mind.

I love Mega Man
I'm not an Otaku. I liked the Robot designs though. I think the show had some good points, the only reason why I bought these DVDs in the first place. The voice acting and animation are of decent quality. Too bad the storyline is rather weak in some episodes and terrible in others. I watch the bad episodes for laughs. I've seen some decent episodes considering the many flaws this series has. It is worth a try considering the fact the Mega Man cartoon won't get a makeover.
