Evil Coop: "You KNOW you can't win."
Good Coop: "I DON'T KNOW NOTHIN!"

[Fancysaurus]

Coop was the epitome of "You may be able to outsmart me but you can never outstupid me"

[rangerwill]

One of the things I loved about this cartoon was it showed you didn't need to have muscles, or money or even the greatest intelligence to be a hero. Once you have some mechanical aptitude and happen to luck your way into finding a 30 ft tall war mech, you can save the world.

[slashbash]

One of my happiest memories is getting Steve Blum to say "chicks dig giant robots." He was far more excited than I expected that someone asked him. Then, he said, "Thank you for watching Megas."

[Megatron-mj]

This show was incredible. It didn't have an overly complicated premise. And it knew what it was. A giant robot beating the crap out of the villain of the week.

[tetzujin]

Making the Megas' cockpit a car was such an inspired decision. The gods of rawness and swag blessed whoever made that call.

[jintarokensei]

When I saw this show first fire an 8-ball hadoken, I was sold.

[sebs-shenanigans]

I watched Megas three times in my life
Once as a child
Then as a Teen
Third as an Adult

and every time I found some new subtexts, Jokes and references.
To me, this gem aged like the finest wine.

>just learned that CN wrote Megas XLR off as a tax loss so now it's owned by the IRS...
worst timeline.

the quintesential definition of an "american anime"

[TheAuron]

"IM THE GOOD GUY, IM THE GOOD GUY, !!!"

proceeds to accidently nuke the other good guys :)

[oiwithyou]

I havent heard this in years. Maybe even a decade. It came back to me in an instant. Fuck, I dig giant robots.

[ShamanMcLamie]

You couldn't make a better show for a preadolescent boy. I don't remember getting more hyped for a show as a kid than I did Megas XLR. It had everything epic action, fun humor, great animation, blood pumping music, one of the most relatable main characters ever, Xtra Large Robots. Shame it got cancelled and a tragedy it was sent to tax hell.

[LClearNote]

How much does a giant robot cost?
*2 Dollars*

[TheTruestZero]

*pick a CD, put on my CD played on my car and start playing Chicks Dig Giant Robots*
Something is missing from this intro...
*Play it back, but now revying my car engine*
Nice!

[JohnDoexx]

This show had everything I adored
Giant Robots 🤖
Badass Chicks 🐥,
Cars 🚘 and Aliens 👽


What a masterpiece.

[TheMagicRobot]

I had a dream that CN made a feature length TV movie to wrap up the story, very upset when I woke up.

[shred]

The moment when the chest of Megas opened up and the bow of Space Battleship Yamato popped out and fired the Wave Motion Gun was the moment I fell in love with this show. All the references and jokes to various bits of pop-culture just made it that much better.

[blacksmithx]

All these years later and this show STILL has such a loyal fan base. This show was just amazing.

[kurauxs]

In a crazy world where Megas XLR could appear in Super Robot Wars...

Coop having Boss Conversations with more philosophical villains would be an absolute comedy goldmine!

Like, for example. When facing Rau Le Crauset from Gundam Seed. And his nihilistic "HUMANITY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL!!!" mentality. I can imagine Coop just simply telling him something like... "Buddy! The JRPG villain reject section is that way!"
