Mega Man: Fully Charged Now Available on Tubi, YouTube

Over the last couple months, WildBrain has been steadily uploading full, free episodes of Mega Man: Fully Charged to its official YouTube channel, finally giving the show a home beyond Amazon’s digital storefront. Now, the series is even easier to watch: all 52 episodes are available to stream for free on Tubi in the United States.

As with the YouTube uploads, Tubi presents Fully Charged in its paired-episode format. That means the original 52 11-minute episodes are bundled into 26 half-hour slots, each running roughly 22 minutes.

Why the sudden push to make Fully Charged easier to watch after all these years? Your guess is as good as mine. But it may be one more small piece of Capcom’s broader effort to expand Mega Man’s reach and strengthen the brand as a core IP.

Ruby-Spears Mega Man Now Available to Stream in Japan for the Very First Time

 

Thirty years after debuting in the U.S, the indelible Ruby-Spears Mega Man cartoon has been released in Japan for the very first time. Rebranded as Rockman USA, all 13 episodes of the show's first season are now available for purchase on Amazon Japan, Video Market, Fuji TV, and other streaming platforms. The second season will probably follow in no time at all.

Although a single episode was previously included in a 2003 promotional DVD set for corporate investors, this marks the first time the entire series has been officially accessible in Japan. Capcom is marketing it as “A Rockman that no one knows about!” The release includes Japanese subtitles, though character names remain consistent with the U.S. version.

While this news might not be particularly groundbreaking for longtime English-speaking fans (although I've got some news for you about the show to share in 2025 that I think you'll like), it’s a pleasant surprise for our friends overseas. No doubt, they'll be joining us in the affectionate ribbing we’ve all come to enjoy about the show.
