    Default ttrpg 90s cartoon

    I have a feeling I've seen this before, but can't quite remember. Is there a ttrpg that's supposed to emulate super 80s/90s action cartoons like He-Man/She-Ra, Thundercats,Transformers, DragonBall, etc.?


    I like to create builds and see them as optimized as powerful. I also have an annoying habit of having gratuitous character ideas and used to regularly ask to switch them out, or ask for small, against-the-rules, caveats to see a character come to completion without being hopelessly useless.
    While I have kicked a few of these habits, or at least slowed them, I try to keep all of my builds/ideas across as few, as official, and as popular rulebooks as possible as to avoid annoying everyone else.

    Not really, those are all different things, both genre-wise and setting-wise.

    I've seen roleplay games based on She-ra/He-man, I've seen mecha rolepalying games, and I have one roleplaying game that can be used to play shonen anime like Dragon Ball, but they're all different things.
    I'm also on discord as "raziere".

    Was it 'Cartoon Action Hour' from the early 2000s or 'Teenagers from Outer Space' from the 80s?

    I don't think it was exactly Cartoon Action Hour, but for all intents and purposes its exactly what I'm looking for, thanks!

    There's also Freedom Squadron, for Savage Worlds.
