Plot Synopsis
A meteorite strikes the Earth and some scientists
go out to explore it, but Wily gets there first and imprisons all of them while harvesting the ore for himself. The meteorite ore for some reason super powers all of his robots and when Mega Man finally gets there, his plasma shots can't touch em.Lucky for him, Roll's stupid vacuum buster power can still take out one of the Battontons and they manage to get a piece of the ore off of it. Yeah, so apparently the ore can stand up to plasma, but not a vacuum? Mega Man uses the ore to damage Wily's bots, but unfortunately the piece of ore he has is flawed, and it causes him to short circuit. He's lying at Wily's mercy, so what does Wily do? He ties him to a horse and sends the horse running off. Do I even need to point out that a titanium robot wouldn't exactly suffer much from that? Not surprisingly Mega Man gets out of that jam (although the way he is rescued is pretty dumb) so he heads back to Dr. Light.
Roll finds some meteorite residue in Mega Man's circuit boards so Dr. Light thinks he can use it to overload the rest of the ore that Wily's bots are using. Mega Man lures Wily's bots back to town where he messed up their ore's this way and then chases them down as they lead him back to Wily. He destroys the meteorite ore but Wily escapes. Also there is a sub-plot about gold and a train robbery, but whatever.
Critique
Not bad, not great, but not bad. Mega Man actually has a funny line or two in this one and the western setting obviously inspires most of the scenarios. Not the strongest episode certianly, but entertaining.
Rating: Thumbs Up!
