Mega Man: Upon a Star

Mega Man: Upon a Star is a 3-episode set anime that Capcom made in 1993, but it was only released in 2002 in Japan. The episodes are "Appearance in Japan", "Wish Upon a Star," and "Future Beware". In 2005 it was imported by ADV Films. The characters are similar to the Mega Man cartoon series, but they are from the "game world".

Episodes

 * Episode 1: Appearance in Japan
 * Episode 2: Wish Upon a Star
 * Episode 3: Future Beware

Fun Facts
These shows were produced in 1993, a year before the American episodes were aired.
 * While the well-known American Mega Man cartoon series is considered to be the first Mega Man series, these episodes were technically first.

While Dr. Light sounds the same, Dr. Wily's voice is different. He does not have the German sound to his accent. Scott Also voiced Beat, who now sounds like Eddie does on the american series. Terry Klassen (who voiced Cut Man on the American series) actually voices Rush in the first episode (more on that on the first episode page, coming soon). Kathleen Barr (who voiced Roll on the American series) does not return as Roll, because Roll is much younger here. However, Kathleen did supply the voice of Yuuta and Akane's Mom on the first episode.
 * Scott McNeil and Jim Byrnes (who voiced Dr. Wily and Dr. Light on the American series) also provide their voices here also.


 * These three shows may have been pseudo pilots for what would become the 1994 Mega Man series. There are similarities between the American series and the third episode.


 * The producers of the American series also served as the U.S. production consultants on these episodes, which would certainly add more credibility to the above fact.
