Appearance in Japan

After a fancy little intro involving Mega Man beating the asses of the Mega Man 5 Robot Masters, as well as getting his own beat, we then see the two kids who'll be dominating this series: Yuuta Kobayashi, your typical little Japanese boy, complete with hair and a forehead that look like they were stripped from a Dragon Ball Z character, as well as Akane, his little sister. Yuuta's a big Mega Man fag, plays the latest game every single day, and is about to beat Star Man when
SHIIIIIIT

Yuuta's mother tells him to do his homework before he goes to bed, and he reluctantly obliges. He finishes almost two hours later, and ignores going to bed to continue his game, what with the fact he didn't turn it off. He manages to get up to the final Wily fortress, but falls asleep before he can finish him.

We then travel to INSIDE THE GAME where Wily vents his rage at an immobile Mega
Man (despite falling asleep, he had the foresight to pause first, apparently),
and complains that even if he did use this opportunity to escape, he'd just be
caught. So that's why he enters the real world via the television screen, and
makes an escape through the window before Mega Man can give chase, who has now
summoned Rush despite still being paused. Morning comes, and the first thing
Yuuta does is continue playing.

Our two game heroes leap through the TV and promptly crash into a wall, and the three of them (yeah, even Rush) have an awkward conversation of what happened. Akane wakes up and is quite happy about seeing her obsessive brother's heroes in reality, while the parents walk in and seem to take the fact that characters came out of a video game in stride. Mega Man explains all about Dr. Wily and his crazy schemes, claiming he's out there getting materials for his robots, while Yuuta states he wants to tag along, what with him being the one who caused Wily's escape. His parents don't allow him, and let the dad show Mega Man about Tokyo via the trains.
EDUCATION: Despite being a small country, Japan's big businesses are
located in the cities, so trains are required to reach there from all over the
world.

Mega Man just uses Rush Jet instead, where we're informed about the differences
in where the driver's side of a car is located, they
watch people eating hamburgers, and then hear a news report about "an amusement
park" being taken over by robots. Since the news report was too vague to
actually tell them the park's name or where it was, they ask a police man, who
provides no assistance at all, and they magically know where it is because of
that.

|
We finally get to see some action, where Mega Man destroys a bunch of robots
with absolutely no struggle or sense of danger at all. Wily, who's sitting in a
ferris wheel, moves to the next plan: Getting all of his robots to stand on each
other until they fuse into a giant Samurai Man. Mega Man uses Power Stone and
Star Crush, and both abilities do a total of jack shit, resulting in him using
all his weapon energy, so he makes an exit back to the school, which he somehow
knows the location to.

|
Yuuta is in class and therefore can't get some energy for him from the game world, so our heroes resort to sitting on the building and taking note that soccer and baseball are the popular sports. A world of difference from the United States! Samurai Man shows up again, where Mega Man shoos away the kids and defeats Wily with a football, of all things, as it punctures his robot and causes all the robots to fall out. A minor setback, Wily claims, as he dons a ninja suit and escapes with the assistance of a smoke bomb, which causes Mega Man to faint.

The
kids at school try to give him their lunch to wake him up, where we learn all
Japanese kids eat the same lunch at the same time at the same place. Silly kids,
Mega Man needs an Energy Can. After we learn about Cram school, they get back
and summon Eddie to provide some energy refills, who also rambles a
frigging book about whatever he's on
about. Mega Man, Rush and Yuuta then go in search of Wily, and plan to search
all of Japan for him.

And now there's a four minute segment where absolutely nothing exciting happens at all:
They say hi to the other kids in Cram school.
Say hi to Mr. and Mrs. Kobayashi.
Learn about certain places being vertically high and thus resulting in different seasons.
Harass some skiers.
Learn that there being lots of lakes in Japan.
Learn about temples.
Wink at some kimono girls.
Learn that samurais don't exist anymore.
Hang out with some windsurfers and jet skiers.
Learn about volcanos, and that if one were to erupt, there would be a disaster.
And
they then realise Wily is in Mt. Fuji, so while they fly over there, we hear of
Wily's plan for Japan to be conquered by his robots and blah blah blah.

A hole explodes from the mountain, spraying lava and Magma Men, as well as
knocking Mega Man and Yuuta into a forest. Mega uses Water Wave to fight the
robots, but he doesn't seem to have the intelligence to quench the ring of fire
that surrounds them shortly afterwards, so Akane summons
Proto Man and Beat to help them out. They take care of the robots and allow
Mega Man to blast through the fire and climb the mountain.
|
|
|
He barges in, defeats all four incarnations of Dark Man, and then upon finding Wily and with the assistance of Proto Man and Beat, fights all of the Mega Man 5 Robot Masters, who all share the same tactic: Run at them without using any attacks at all and hope for the best. Wily tries to make an exit with a rocket, only for Yuuta, Rush and Akane to show up with the NES and attempt to get him back into the game world.

They're too late, and Wily has got away. Not too late for Proto Man, though, as he jumps on the rocket and turns it back into Mt. Fuji, sending all on the rocket back into the game world. They all return home and have dinner, where we get a cheap gag out of Mega Man's inability to use chopsticks, and they have a brief conversation about working together and Japan is great and yadda yadda before he returns to the game world.
Mega Man can't even call the country Japan in his speech about Dr. Wily at the beginning, but "this place called Japan".
What kinda fire needs a plasma cannon to put it out?
