Rockman.EXE Stream

Here is my review of this anime in 2023!

Story (10)
The story is about Netto and RockMan's cross-fusion where they can merge together in the real-world (Netto World). Not only that, but you will see a lot of new enemies and friend navies. It's the continuation from the last season, but this time they must face with a comet called Duo. Duo has a Navi called asteroid Navi. Netto and his friend will battle with old enemy Navi's and you will see a lot of new characters and cross-fusion.

Art (9)
The art of this anime is very good. It's still the same as the original. I like ... this animation even though watch it in 2023.

Sound (9)
All the sounds they used are very good and adjusted to the animation.

Character (10)
The main and supporter character is very memorable, especially the main character (Netto and Rockman). I really love Dark RockMan in this series.

Enjoyment (9)
It's very enjoyable to watch this movie in 2023.

Overall (9)
Recommended for those who love action, comedy, adventure, and RockMan Series.

Rockman.EXE Stream is just a major disappointment. If you enjoyed the first 2 seasons like I did, you'll see what I mean. The animation and story both took a major dive in quality.

The characters also take a dive in quality. While most of them are ok, Netto is one I found horribly mean-spirited and out of character in this season. He's always treating his childhood friend Meiru like she's not worth anything to him and that she's weak, all so he can ditch her for Jasmine, some random girl he just met.. He is also too stupid to tell the difference between Rockman and ... a sadistic clone of him.

Jasmine and Medi were the worst part of this anime, as they are incredibly boring characters who only exist to force in a cliche anime love triangle. They feel like some self insert OCs rather than actual characters and basically exist only to make Meiru and Roll jealous. Another character I hated from this anime was Slur. She wasn't even interesting as a villain, and has no sense of morals. (She actually thinks some little kid is "evil" and on the same level as a criminal...with basically no justification as to why she feels this way.) Don't even get me started on Dr. Regal...what were they even THINKING with the way they changed him? Or Baryl, who's suddenly a time traveler despite not being one in the games?

There were some things I liked about this anime though. As you can expect from Rockman.EXE, the music is awesome. Many side characters are given a bigger role, and Napalmman.EXE's arc was really heartwarming. The ending, while confusing, did have a very nice message overall. Narcy and Dark Rockman.EXE were also great villains, albeit for completely different reasons. Even if there are positives about this anime, overall it's a major disappointment to me as a Rockman.EXE fan.
