MegaMan NT Warrior ("Network Transmission Warrior"[2][3]), also stylized as MegaMan: NT Warrior[4] and Mega Man NT Warrior [5], known as Rockman EXE (ロックマンエグゼ Rokkuman Eguze) in Japan, is the first season of the Japanese animated series based on the Mega Man Battle Network video game series. It loosely covers the events of Mega Man Battle Network 1 and 2 and uses story concepts from 3.
Synopsis[]
This is the official English series description.[6]
In the year 200X… humanity has entered a new age― the Network Age ―due to the advancement of the Internet. Each person carries his or her own PET, short for Personal Terminal, and each PET contains an artificial intelligence program called a NetNavi (or NetNavigator). While the invention of the PET and NetNavis has brought great benefits to the lives of humans around the world, computer hacking, virus spreading, and other high-tech crimes are becoming a major problem.
Lan Hikari is a boy who lives in DenTech City. Lan’s father programs a personal NetNavi for him as a present for graduating to the fifth grade. Lan’s new NetNavi’s name is MegaMan.
Lan and his friends Dex, Maylu, and Yai at DenTech Academy, team up with their respective NetNavis, MegaMan, GutsMan, Roll, and Glide, to solve problems on the Net that are causing chaos in DenTech City. In doing so, they discover that the instigator of these mysterious crimes is an evil syndicate known as World Three.
In one battle after another, MegaMan confronts the sinister NetNavis and computer viruses of World Three. Sometimes assisted by the secret Net Agents, or by the genius NetBattler Chaud, Lan and MegaMan courageously fight evil in the cyberworld and gradually uncover World Three’s true objective….
Who could be this mysterious, ultimate NetNavi that Mr.Wily, the head of World Three, seeks relentlessly? What are MegaMan’s hidden powers? Will the friendship and teamwork of NetOps and their NetNavis conquer the evil ambitions of World Three? In his quest to become the best NetBattler ever, Lan’s cry will echo again today in DenTech City and throughout the world.
History[]
The series is the second animated series in the Mega Man franchise after the 1994 series, and is the longest running Mega Man TV show to date, having spawned four more seasons totaling 209 episodes and a film. The first of the next seasons, Axess, was dubbed in English while Stream, Beast, and Beast+, and the movie, Hikari to Yami no Program, set during Stream, only aired in Japan.
It would later be succeeded by Mega Man Star Force, set 200 years in the future, which spawned a second season that only aired in Japan, Shooting Star Rockman Tribe.
The WonderSwan Color video game Rockman EXE WS features an rough retelling of the first season of the anime as its plot.
In Japan, the series aired on TV Tokyo's evening time slot at 7:30 PM.[7]
In the United States, Kids' WB premiered it on their Saturday morning time slot but the show's schedule continually swapped it between that time and the weekday afternoon time slots. Due to the block, Lan and MegaMan guest star in Kids' WB ads with other characters such as in the "Way Outta the Way Road Trip" series. The series also had a 2-hour long one-time stint on Cartoon Network's Saturday Block Party on October 2004.[8] MegaMan NT Warrior was also treated as 2 seasons, with the first season being 14 episodes, and the second season starts with "Evil Empress Roll! (Part 1)"[9].
For a limited time, Capcom USA made the anime available to watch to commemorate the Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection in 2023. For this release, all episodes of MegaMan NT Warrior is considered as Season 1[10]. Also, the skipped episodes that were put at the end of the original release's second season have been re-ordered into their original Japanese episode count.
Plot[]
For characters in the anime, see List of MegaMan NT Warrior characters. |
The season is split into two parts, known as "First Area” and "Second Area" in Japan. While some stories were influenced by the games, it heavily diverges from the source material in terms of how events are played out and when they happen.
The "First Area" consists of episodes 1 to 26 and contains story elements of the original Mega Man Battle Network. It details the adventures of Lan Hikari and his new NetNavi MegaMan as they battle against Mr. Wily and his criminal organization World Three. Lan and MegaMan meet many new friends and learn about the Program Advance while preparing to face off against their rivals Chaud Blaze and ProtoMan during the N1 Grand Prix. The First Area's reaches a climax with the revival of the dangerous PharaohMan and the deletion of MegaMan. With the help from Lan's father and the Net Agents, MegaMan is brought back to life to finally stopping PharaohMan's threat.
The "Second Area" starts with episode 27 to 56 and contains a loose adaptation of Mega Man Battle Network 2. It follows Lan and MegaMan’s trip around the world as a prize for winning second place in the N1 Grand Prix. Lan, MegaMan, and the rest of their friends then battle against the NetMafia Grave and learn about Bass. MegaMan gains the power of Style Change and new technology sets the background for Axess. Second Area reaches a climax with the Grave Virus Beast devastating the entire internet, with MegaMan being the only one who can stop it all. The remainder of the episodes cover more lighthearted stories, ending with the Life Virus acts as the final battle of the season in episode 56, mirroring the finale of the original Battle Network.
As a way to promote the newest game at the time of the anime's airing, Mega Man Battle Network 3, certain aspects from it are mixed in. This includes the N1 Grand Prix tournament and introducing the new characters from that game: Tora, KingMan, Chisao, and DrillMan. As well as MegaMan's brand new form, Bug Style.
List of episodes[]
In the MegaMan NT Warrior English dub, certain episodes were omitted or aired out of date. Also, the original English broadcast created two episodes that were edited down from multiple episodes: There's No "I" In Team (Part 1)/There's No "I" In Team (Part 2) and DenTech City's Deep Freeze!/Crimson Flash!. Episodes 18 and 30 are absent on the anime's English official site, leaving it with 50 episodes, causing the numbering of the episodes from episode 18 onward to be wrong.
Episodes are denoted as EXE for the Japanese episode count, and NTW for the MegaMan NT Warrior episode count. Some NT Warrior episodes also did not air in the United States, but did air in other countries such as Canada. They were later available in the US through the DVD.
Staff Notes:
- Storyboardist Dojag-a-gen[11] is Episode Director Naoyoshi Kusaka[12] under a different name.

NT Warrior English Dub[]
- "It is the year 200X, and it is almost like living in a video game. I'm Lan Hikari, welcome to DenTech City, where the whole city is linked together through a cyber matrix that connects everything. My friends and I have these powerful handhelds called PET that lets us battle in a virtual world with our cyber-warriors. They are called NetNavis; and my NetNavi is MegaMan. There's also an evil force, World Three, which wreaks havoc in the City by infecting the cyber matrix with computer viruses! Along with our friends and their personal net-warriors, MegaMan and I are gonna delete these viruses, and rinse society of all chaos and crime. Jack In! MegaMan! Power Up!"
- —Lan Hikari's introduction from the English dub
MegaMan NT Warrior is the English dub produced by ShoPro Entertainment and recorded at Ocean Studios, with home releases by Viz Media. The dub contains many notorious traits by other dubbed kids anime at the time. These include straying away from the Japanese script, adding dialogue and sound effects that weren't there, changing names from the English video game, giving characters random accents, completely replacing the background music, cutting out scenes for time, skipping several episodes, and heavy censorship.
The initial broadcast also suffers from reorganized episode airings, skipping entire stories to get to the N1 Grand Prix faster, then later skipping to get to the introduction of Net City faster. The initial American broadcast also had 2 episodes that were edited down version of multiple episodes. The entirety of this season's dub came out in DVD and are censored like the broadcast. Dubs of many non-Asian countries are based on the MegaMan NT Warrior English dub, keeping the music changes, censorship, and dialogue alterations.
The English dub has an "announcer" for events that happen on the internet, such as a NetNavi being deleted or logged out (i.e., the announcer saying "MegaMan logging out" when MegaMan returns to his PET) where as there was none in the original Japanese dub. More drastic changes such as tonal changes were made such as in Crimson Flash! regarding Mr. Match’s reaction to TorchMan’s near deletion injuries from a Grave Navi. In the Japanese version, Match revered TorchMan and the time he’s had with him, accepting the end of their time together. In the English dub it was changed so Match is in denial and doesn’t accept TorchMan’s defeat, claiming that they’ll get revenge on Grave.
The episodes Ice Ice Baby!, Hot Tempers!, and Game Off!, which featured Maddy, Mr. Match, and Count Zap's rematches with Lan and MegaMan respectively, were all shown towards the end of the season rather than at the beginning of the season like the original Japanese version, advertised as never-before-seen episodes in the United States broadcast[15]. It also made it seem as if the World Three had become active again after Grave was defeated. In the original Japanese version, the World Three stayed disbanded and its members had become more like allies to Lan and MegaMan at that point. This is reinforced in the dub of Axess, where Mr. Match vows the defeated the two one day, whereas in the Japanese version he was simply happy to help them defeat PlantMan.
Alternate English dub[]
An alternate Asian English dub of the first season, done by Voiceovers Unlimited, was made for the South-East Asian markets with a script that faithfully followed the original’s with no episodes cut out. The show also kept the Japanese names, terms, and the original Japanese soundtrack. However like MegaMan NT Warrior, some characters were given random accents.
It aired in Singapore on Kids Central[16] from 2005 to 2007. All 56 episodes were released in two VCD sets with the Chinese dub with Ep. 1-27 on the first set and Ep. 28-56 on the second, mirroring the First and Second Area split of the Japanese version. While it's lost to time as to how the show aired on TV, this release, unlike the NT Warrior DVDs, is uncensored.
Kids Station Broadcast[]
In Japan, the channel Kids Station started broadcasting the Rockman EXE series on July 1, 2017[17]. This rebroadcast is an upscale of the original standard definition video but had some unique additions: The removal of TV Tokyo and other Production in the credits, clean sponsor card animation, the original broadcast end cards, and a warning at the start of every episode. The warning talks about how the program may include some inappropriate presentation due to the time period of the show's production, but airs the content as intended by the original creators.

Reception[]
In Japan, Rockman EXE achieved popularity among viewing audiences. According to a viewership sample conducted in the Kantō region by Video Research, the anime drew in an average of 4.5% and a maximum of 5.9% of households during the last year of its original run.[21]
In the United States, the first season of MegaMan NT Warrior was reported by Kids' WB to be resonating with its audience and outperforming all competitors in their core demographics [22]. The second season was also said to be a breakout hit and continues to outperform its broadcast time period competition in their core demographics, they announced the third season, MegaMan NT Warrior: Axess in the same report[23].
Home media[]
In Japan, the series was released across 65 DVD volumes containing all five seasons as well as a separate DVD release for the film. The first season was also released on VHS. Rental stores had different DVD art than retail DVDs to differentiate them.
The DVD release contains animation corrections of errors in the original TV airing (but does not correct all errors). As an example, the TV airing of the episode Virus Busters! reused Lan scenes from The End of the End! with lighting colors not matching the scene. The animations were recolored in the DVD version so now the lighting matches with episode.
In America, only the first season of MegaMan NT Warrior was released across 13 volumes. The DVDs include only the censored English dub and the Latin America Spanish dub.
In Asian countries, the series was released under the name "Rockman EXE" on multiple VCDs.
Scholastic books[]
In 2006, Scholastic published English books based on the anime.
