List of MegaMan NT Warrior episodes (Beast and Beast+)

This article covers the fourth and fifth series of the "MegaMan NT Warrior" anime series, known in Japan as nihongo|"Rockman EXE Beast"|ロックマンエグゼビースト|Rokkuman Eguze Bīsuto and nihongo|"Rockman EXE Beast+"|ロックマンエグゼビースト+|Rokkuman Eguze Bīsuto Purasu. Though there are many similarities, the two series are separate. "Beast" consists of 25 episodes whereas "Beast+" consists of 26, bringing the total episodes to 51, the same amount held by both "Axess" and "Stream".

"Beast" premiered in Japan on October 1, 2005, directly one week after "Stream" concluded. It ran until April 1, 2006, and "Beast+" took its spot directly afterwards on April 8, running through until September 30, 2006, which would also mark the final episode of the entire "Rockman EXE" anime series.

"Beast" was presented in much the same fashion as "Axess" and "Stream" with an entirely original storyline that borrowed characters and concepts primarily from the sixth "Mega Man Battle Network" video game. However, "Beast+" episodes were shortened to only 10 minutes in length, airing in a 30-minute morning segment called "Oha Coliseum" alongside the "Saru Getchu" anime series. "Beast+" progresses through a variety of story arcs that uses some remaining elements from "Battle Network 6" as well as the more obscure side-games like "Transmission" and "Phantom of Network".

While "Beast" is often praised for its originality and unique storyline, "Beast+" is often considered somewhat nonsensical by presenting various minor and unconnected conflicts with no clear purpose or resolution.
