Cartoon Network has premiered the first ten episodes of the Mega Man: Fully Charged series ahead of time. These appear to be unlocked for all viewers (in the U.S., anyway), without the need of a subscription.
Here are the quick descriptions for each of the episodes, so you have a good idea of which ones will likely be favorites. (Mild spoilers ahead.)
Throwing Shade Pt. 1- Sgt. Night publicly criticizes Dr. Light’s views on human & robot unity during a school assembly, invoking the ire of Fire Man and forcing Silicon City’s newly minted hero, Mega Man, to intervene.
Throwing Shade Pt. 2- Mega Man stops Fire Man by replicating his powers and fighting fire with fire. Unfortunately, Mega Man also learns that he can replicate a robot’s mental state as well, and must get his own anger under control to win. Defeated, Fire Man reports back to his secret master, Sgt. Night!
Drilling Deep- At school, Aki struggles with the side effects of his newly replicated Drill Man schematics; later, as Mega Man, he learns to control his FIre Powers in thwarting Drill Man’s assault on Skyraisers Inc.
Videodrone- Mega Man must stop Hypno Woman from turning the students and teachers at Silicon Central into her mindless drones.
Please Rush Home- A misunderstanding between Mega Man and Rush ends in the robo-pop running away from home, only to be reunited and reconciled during a confrontation with Wave Man.
Blaze of Glory- Mega Man and Suna must overcome a sibling dispute over what to do on their day off in order to stop Fire Man from overheating the city.
Nice On Ice- An “unscheduled” TV appearance not only lands Aki in hot water for missing class, but sets Ice Man on a misguided mission to “unite” (i.e. freeze together) every human and robot couple in the city!
Hard Times- Mega Man must stop Blasto Woman from plundering the Museum of the Hard Age and its cache of military grade weaponry.
Tripping the Light Fantastic- Mega Man tries to save Dr. Light from a date with “Mari,” who’s actually Hypno Woman in disguise!
Running Wild- Student elections get blown out of proportion (literally) when Air Man lends his support to Aki’s rival for class president, Peter Punk.
