Mega Man: Upon a Star, known in Japan as Rockman: Hoshi ni Negai o , is a Japanese anime original video animation (OVA) series produced by Ashi Productions and based on the popular Capcom video game franchise Mega Man. Created in 1994, the series was presented by the Japan Center for Intercultural Communications. The OVA is viewed as a series of educational shorts on the culture of Japan. The first episode was intended to be a special episode of the Mega Man cartoon in production at the time, and used the voice actors they had cast for the cartoon at that time, but the cartoon's artstyle changed due to a big budget and the episode was shown as an after school special on select stations and in Japan on TV Tokyo. The rest was made in 1995 and didn't get dubbed until 2002, when it was released on DVD with an English language audio track, and never was available to the American public until 2005, when it finally saw a VHS and DVD release in North America by ADV Films. This OVA is the first appearance of Yuuta and Akane. Though most sources claim the release was in 1993, this is somewhat debatable as the first episode clearly shows the re-designed Famicom AV on which Yuuta is playing Rockman 5: Blues no Wana, and the Famicom AV was not released until December 1993, and it was intended to be a part of the 1994 Mega Man cartoon as was noted above
