We need a new Megaman cartoon (MADE BY INAFUNE AND NOT ON 4KIDSTV) with the voices from MegaMan Powered Up.

Wikipedia says:

"Prior to the show's premiere a short animated promo was released which utilized a graphic-style more similar to the graphic design of the games. When the show was being produced, the designs of characters were changed, most likely to better appeal to American audiences"

Is this video that "promo" episode?

As I recall this movie is called "Megaman Upon A Star", and am under the impression that the "promo" episode for Megaman cartoon is different than this. If I'm wrong correctme

@Jesterclown17 Anime wasn't popular in America at this point, and while the openings are action-y, for lack of a better term, the rest of the OVA was more educational, focusing on teaching America about Japanese culture.

@BankaiIchigo12345 The OVAs were pilots for a Megaman cartoon, but this was before anime became popular in America, so the creators decided to make the show look more American, resulting in Megaman looking the way he did in the cartoon.

@BankaiIchigo12345 This is Megaman: Upon A Star, an OVA(Episodic anime movie if you don't know what it is) released in 1994 by ADV Films to teach Japanese culture, it has little to do with the American cartoon series.

[BankaiIchigo12345]

When was this released. Who released it? And is this the "promo reel" for the Megaman cartoon series? I heard the promo reel for that looked a lot more anime like than the final design of the Megaman cartoon. So I suspect that this is that promo reel? Or at least the Japanese taking the the promo reel and doing what the Americans didn't do with it, actually making a show that was in the same graphical style as the promo?

@demoghist;

Sounds plentily the same as Care Bears' cloud car in the original 80's cartoon :)

[Jesterclown17]

This never got a full series... Why?

[SonicPAJ]

If this is the 2nd...what's the first?

@MegaMan8778 I'm not sure the powered up voices are the best choice.
