TJ Omega/YMMV

• Crowning Music of Awesome: "Juggernaut", the theme for TJ TV.
• Love It or Hate It: He says at the start of the review for the Mega Man cartoon that the show has this reaction with the fanbase, adding that it has the secondary effect of "making you throw rocks at whoever disagrees with you". He also says he's generally okay with the redesigns, showing that Captain N did a far lousier job than this show, a few personal oddities aside. He also acknowledges that, unlike the Darkstalker cartoon, the cartoon brought in actual story elements from the games.
• Video Game Adaptations Suck: Most of the video game cartoons he reviewed got negative opinions from him:
  • Mortal Kombat: Defenders of Earth Relam: Criticizes the idea of making an M rated game into a kids show. The toned down nature drove away fans, and the the violent source material drove away children. He also criticizes the unneeded drama, the idiotic writing, and the lazy animation (but praises episode 13). Not to mention Sub Zero being voiced by Luke Perry.
  • Darkstalkers: Criticizes the fact that the plot has nothing to do with the game, and that it's non-existent. The Character Derailment, like Morrigan being a stereotypical villain instead of the protagionst. He also dislikes the fact that the show gets things explained in the game wrong (like calling Donovan's sword the Spellsword, when it's actually Dylac).
  • Double Dragon: TJ Omega criticizes the lousy writing. The fact that it's a super hero show and has almost nothing to do with the games besides characters. This also includes the fact that episode 1 is all filler and the real show starts at episode 2 (using different openings that spoil each episodes events in them).
  • Donkey Kong Country: While TJ Omega praises the voice acting, he criticizes the animation. He notes that 3D animation was new at the time, but indicates that ReBoot was airing at the same time and did it better. He also criticizes the insert songs in each episode, noting that exposition is occasionally inserted into the songs, forcing the viewers to listen to them. He also criticizes the fact that the plot contradicts itself in the first episode.
