It's both a good and a bad thing when your work feels dated the moment you upload it.
Bad that you know it's not your best anymore; good that you know you can blow it out the water.
This piece was a beast to work on. I wanted to give up on it many, many times, but dug in, learned a few new tricks and finished. There are plenty of mistakes left in the aftermath, but they aren't deep enough to ruin the experience, I feel.
Please download and enjoy. Hopefully the Blue Bomber has been done a little justice.
Oh, and I arranged and sequenced the music, so you can blame me for the guitars.

Truly amazing in the detail of the animation. The end with all the character references are truly engaging at the end. The music adds a great twist to the original classic sound. I may not be familiar with the whole Mega Man franchise, but I do love the fact that I can still get the reference to know that this is an astonishing piece of animation.
The colors chosen are perfect, and even the motion to the lines of animation were great. The animation flowed to create a realistic impact to the final process. The picture itself in reference is great as well, as I go back to see the masterpiece of the final picture and to re-play the video over again. Great job on the animation and the final picture: Rock and the 2 Crew.

Oh god, what to say about this...
You've made me want to relive my childhood. This is like a teaser to an upcoming Saturday morning cartoon show. The detail you put into each motion and brushstroke, the coloring and shading, the final cast shot... I almost cried tears of joy. I want to see more work like this in the future, because this is beautiful beyond words.
I'm a die-hard Megaman fanboy, I'll tell you that right now... But the skill and technique with which you animated this practically blew my mind. It's things like this that make me love the classic video games so much, because so much can be done with them.
Keep animating, and Rock On, Blue Bomber!

It is a great animation!
I had to admit, to my shame, that I thought Capcoms Fakeman in Street Fighter X Tekken was a nice touch of nostalgia. The I realized what they have done to the franchise as well as many other games series.
Turns out they're testing the fanbase to see what shit they can get away with.
No. No. NO! Give us either the original Megman or Megaman X (which would fit in the roster since his name ends with an X) or at least give us a decent redesign that still pays homage and respect to the character.
Anyways, your critique is fair and I'll see you in the Empire.

I don't think I've ever given anyone's artwork a perfect rating before, I'm not a fan of Megaman either, but it's truly hard to say anything bad about this piece. The animation is beautiful and crisp, definitely some of the best I've seen on Deviantart. You've captured the characters very well and everything looks smoother than humanly possible. I can easily say this is definitely a good animation to present your artwork, it encouraged me to look to at the rest of your gallery and I can see that you are very professional at what you do. Overall, great animation that you can clearly see all the work that was put into making it look good and a good representation of the series.

First things first, this is an exceptional piece of animation.
It is well thought out and faithful to the world of Megaman whilst bringing something new to the table.
The art style also fits perfectly. Characters are well animated and all of the artwork used is of the same high standard, I particularly like the nights sky and the costume transition effects.
The music used fits the piece well and offers a unique take on the familiar Megaman theme whislt keeping it fresh.
To be honest I can't find anything that needs fixing or improving, I would love to see a Megaman animation done in this style.

While this is an absolutely amazing wonderful fantastic piece of animation... really max rating for originality? It's based on a property!

Yeah, everyone seems to leave 5/5 ratings in all categories on DDs. It seems like people have forgotten how to give actual critiques...

Thank you! I'm a bit lost for words on what to say...
You even said something positive about the music.
Again, thanks for taking the time to write this out. It really makes me want to continue moving forward and give my best.

this makes me wish for an open world mega man game were players can replay it for so much worth and re-customization and character interactions besides robot grinding
who says that a cartoon style like this can be immersive and expansive
(legends 1 and 2.... le sigh. )

It took about a month to pull together from scratch. Had to do some learning to bring it to that state.
I do plan on sharing some of what I know. Will just need the time to do so.

This is marvelous! Β The style is perfect, if they were to even create a more modern Megaman anime / cartoon it needs to look like this!
