That's a lot better than what you were typing before!

Corrections:
孫コンボイ氏、トランスフォーム！ぼくのすきなトランスフォーマーはサウンドウェーブです。
グリムロックは素晴らしいですね！

Oh yeah, forgot. *stupid, stupid stupid*

In the jap G1, do the dinobots speak in third person, like this:
グリムロックくんのすきなたべものは金属デス。　or is it like normal:
ぼくのすきなたべものは金属です。

More like: 「俺グリムロック、好きな食べ物は金属だ」

What madness is this?!

It's called post Transformers The Movie where the Dinobots were portrayed as raging 'tard monkey comic relief caricatures. *sigh* It was just as bad in the English language version too. *sighs.again* ...this is why I prefer the Dinobots from Seasons 1-2 and the Marvel Comics.

Exactly, as Grimlock's my fave character, (along with Soundwave) it really puts me off when he's not as lovable. Grim's new brain was alright, kind of went into Grimlock's troubles. It wasn't great, but IMHO, it was his best season 3 episode. The earlier comics featuring Grimlock were really good, IMO. I kinda didn't like what they were portrayed as in the movies, but the 'Me Grimlock kick butt' was... alright. Anyway, back to Japanese. He was really badass in seasons 1-2 though.

I was in Parramatta on Friday to pick up my Transformers comics, and drove past the streets where they were shooting for the upcoming Wolverine movie. One of the Japanese signs on a building was a billboard for some (presumably fictitious) digital printing company, and it was called 文雄 (Fumio) which is a Japanese male given name, but 文 ("Fumi" or "bun") means "literature" or "text" and 雄 ("o" or "yuu") is used in the word 英雄 ("eiyuu") which means "HERO"... literary hero! I see watchoo did thar, Wolverine!

ROFLMAO!!!


There's an English version here, but it's not as extensive as the Japanese version -- and at least one of the jokes in the JP version isn't translatable in English. Aww man... best laugh in ages. *wipes.tear.from.eye*
