User:TornadoMan.EXE

Hi! I am TornadoMan.EXE! You may have known me as Zalbaag before my name change. I’m an avid fan of MegaMan and love the entire franchise, though I’d have to say my least favorite series is Mega Man Zero because the games kicked my ass something fierce. :(

I am an admin here on MMKB, so if you have any questions, please let me know!

EXE
EXE suffers from kid-friendly-anime-repetition. By what I mean is, they use the same attacks over and over and over (Mini Bomb! Mini Bomb! 10 Mini Bombs!) with very little threat going on. The first half of the season is Lan going up against the WWW and the N1 Grand Prix happening. Due to the above reason of repetition the N1 wasn’t very exciting, with Lan and MegaMan spending most of the time trying to master the Life Sword Program Advance and winning by lobbing Mini Bombs at his opponents. Just saying - in the game, that doesn’t fly.

The second half of the season picks up a bit, with MegaMan being deleted (and of course, is revived), and that was a cool arc, and Bass appears from the remains of that threat. The threat of Gospel is a bit more menacing than the WWW, but not by much. In fact it’s kind of hard to say that Gospel was a “mafia” like it was in the games so much as it was a mess of characters who attacked random things. The fight with Gospel and Bub Style was a cool sequence.

Axess
This feels like a missed opportunity. You had Dr. Regal, which is a menacing SOB, Dark Chips, which are basically the equivalent of cocaine for NetNavis, and a nice selection of Darkloids ranging from funny to straight up threatening. But with a limited cast that doesn’t seem to fit right and long story arcs that go nowhere until the end (Dark ProtoMan), Axess to me fell short. We also start the ongoing trend of MegaMan gaining powers (Double Soul) that he utilities once or twice and doesn’t even acknowledge again. I can understand why in 25 episodes, Style Changes weren’t used as much in EXE, but with 51 episodes and 12 Souls, some could have been used more than the one appearance it had. Number Soul comes from the top of my head: It appears randomly, stops a very minor incident with AquaMan, Lan is so happy he gets it, and it’s never seen again. Cross Fusion being in its early stages throughout a grand majority of the anime holds it back quite a bit, though it’s part of the story, so you can’t fault it too bad.

Stream
Stream is solid, but again, misses many opportunities. There are a whopping three sets of antagonist groups in this season, and a jam-packed cast on top of it.
