Mega Man (animation)/Nightmare Fuel


 * The image of Rock/Mega on a lab table as a Terminator-esque endoskeleton in the intro is a little unnerving, even though it only shows up for a few seconds before dissolving into an image of Mega from that same position but with his "skin."
 * And there's the first nightmare in "Mega Dreams"; while the idea of Gutsman and Cutman pretending to be a couple may amuse you, that moment comes after a shot of a stuffed dino with what looks like blood on its muzzle.
 * In the first episode, "The Beginning". In a flashback detailing Rock and Roll's creation, Dr. Wily had them strapped to an operating table, ready to reprogram them. This involved him taking a drill to their heads. While they were still conscious.
 * One small detail in "Curse of the Lion Men" that can be Fridge Horror is that later—Protoman, who quite values his free will, is the one to flatly announce that Tar is their leader now after the latter brainwashes his group and Roll.
 * Also in "The Beginning", Wily warned Light not to follow him after he kidnapped Rock and Roll. If he did, Iceman would freeze him. And Cutman would slice him up.
 * In "Brain Bots", Wily places Megaman in a Death Trap. The trap consists of a Descending Ceiling with spikes. Unlike some death traps, Mega was bound to the floor as it descended. What pushes this into Nightmare Fuel is what Wily said about it; he uses it to recycle robots he no longer needs into scrap metal. Meaning he's done this to HIS OWN ROBOTS. What makes it worse is that some robots, like Fire Man and Star Man, were only in one episode and never seen or mentioned again...
 * While the episode involving Megaman and other robots "devolving" may be ludicrous (robots don't turn into caveman-like robots), it was still freaky seeing their gradual transformation.
