Mega Man: Upon a Star

Mega Man: Upon a Star, known in Japan as Rockman: Hoshi ni Negai o (ロックマン 星に願いを; lit. "Rockman: Wishing Upon a Star"), is a Japanese anime original video animation (OVA) series based on the Capcom video game franchise Mega Man. Produced by Universal Multimedia Entertainment, Capcom, and Ashi Productions, who also worked on the 1994 American Mega Man cartoon, and presented by the Japan Center for Intercultural Communications, it serves as a series of educational shorts about the culture of Japan. Produced around 1993 to 1994, the OVA was not released to home media until a Japanese DVD release by Capcom on September 20, 2002. This was followed by a North American release by ADV Films on January 4, 2005, which switched the order of episodes 1 and 2 from the Japanese release. It loosely adapts the events of Mega Man 5 along with original story elements.
