Since I've been binging any transformer show I can find, I want to share some of my thoughts to the people!! This is too long for a discord message to I'm just word vomiting on Tumblr instead :)

Spoilers for Transformers: Animated below

PROWL JUST DIES????? HE JUST DIES. WHAT. So anyways I wasn't a huge fan of the ending, my mate mentioned how it looked like the budget got cut twords the end so without much more context I'd assume that too cause wow that was anticlimactic to me. It kinda felt like there wasn't a lot of care put into it and just had to do something quick to get it to air on time. Blackarachnia JUST KEEPS GETTING BANISHED, IT'S SO FUNNY TO ME, like yes she's in prehistoric Dino age (shout out to the maximals nod, teehee). I cannot remember how Beast Wars ends so I'm hoping third times the charm (rip queen). I was so relieved they made Sentinel fucking give Optimus some damn credit, it was pissing me off sm he was getting insufferable, and sure I can see people saying it was rushed maybe but BOY was it satisfying so I'm happy with that outcome.

This version of Soundwave is by far my favorite, hopefully not the only Soundwave I'll love but HRGRGGRHR HIS CASSETTES ACTUALLY BEING INSTRUMENTS MADE ME SO FERAL. I JUST, SOMETHING CLICKED AND MONEY BRAIN WENT "BEST THING EVERRRR!!!" And I hope there's other iterations where this is a thing cause I NEED MORE OF IT. I need this mfer shredding it all the time, plz. If I get to drawing something like my own continuity (which for Goldbreak I'll probably have to) im MOSTLY basing it off of this one.

I was so happy when Jazz wanted to stick with the Autobots on Earth, Great joy!! than I realize there's 2 episodes left and I explodeeee like NAAAUURR. At least leading up to that we got to see him a lot, the most screentime I've seen Jazz get (from the media I have watched) by far. But more thoughts on my favorite transformer, I dont like they took way his lil horns, it's not quite him without them, so it gets a lot of points taken for that alone. Otherwise I enjoyed him a lot, very funny, smart, witty, just a very likeable character overall. Also the fact he ditched Sentinal already is great news lol.

I'M NOT OVER HOW THEY KILLED BLURR, I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT UNTIL SEVERAL EPISODES LATER. I thought he would get uh, uncubed, and come back! NO. HE DIDN'T. It genuinely upsets me a lot, he was taken too soon from us and it was fucking brutal too, I was shocked. He's not my favorite but something about him getting killed in such an awful way and not coming back just broke my heart.

Prowl being gold and black threw me off the whole time. It probably helps him look visually different from Ratchet and in this iteration it helped him look more like a "Cyber Ninja" (I hate that sm xjejjdjdjdj) but I didn't like it still.

The human designs I don't love, but I cope with thinking that this was a simulation created by Soundwave so a lot of his influence was apart of those designs probably. They did kinda fit for them, but doesn't mean I loved them.

I can't forget that one post of "worst polycule ever" and it's sentinal, prime, and blackarachnia. Tbh I couldn't agree more and it's so funny to me to think about. It's silly :)

OH MY GODS I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT BLITZWING. HANDS DOWN MY FAVORITE CHARACTER IN THE SHOW. I didn't really think about if he was good plural representation or not, I just really had a lot of fun watching them and GRRR THE ALT MODES GOING TO DIFFERENT ALTERS IS SO BIG BRAIN, and a huge reason as to why Goldbreak/Siegebreak are the way they are. I saw them and went "oh shit I've gotta make my own" so I did that :3. I don't really have deeper thoughts on him than he was such a fun character and I'm upset that this is the only version of Blitzwing like this.

after seeing all the SV leaks I'm actually tempted to reconsider my choice and switch to scarlet 🤔
