OK, one of my main beefs with Megaman NT Warrior, the new craptastical WB show, is that the original Japanese version wasn't craptastical. I've been viewing fansubs of it for some time, and the series is funny, goofy, and witty. Unfortunately, the WB version has tried to make it serious and "Matrix-like", removing all the good music with shitty techno music and editting out alot of the funny stuff.
But Rockman.EXE refuses to be serious. If Masa's (er... Commander Beef) antics weren't enough; if Netto, Dekao, Tohru dressing in drag wasn't silly; if all of that wasn't enough... we get to see this:
Behold! The Wily Toilet! Yes, that is straight from the show. As the series goes on it, becomes all the more goofy. I fail to see how WB can attempt to make that techno-badass (note the word attempt).
WB can never suck the fun out of Rockman.
