Japanese TFA opening

Gets you hyped and for some reason there's some hope in me there will be season 4+. I know I'm dreaming. Now that's how to do an exciting and promotional intro. No Wreck Gar in it tho.

Hell with that intro, its how I wanted Animated to be! Awesome sauce!

It absolutely s**ts on the US opening IMO

I personally don't like how every US Transformers opening theme is some variation of the G1 "More Than Meets The Eye" song. (-_-) Lack of originality much? :/

Too bad it looks like its gonna be a dub. Heard rumours that it was going to pick up where s3 left off, but thats highly doubtful considering what i've read.

Well they do need to start from the beginning considering that the Japanese audience hasn't been exposed to Animated yet.

*shrug* Remember that back in G1 the Japanese did continue well after the US cartoon was cancelled. Powermasters (Godmasters), Seacons, Firecons, Pretenders, Micromasters etc. all appeared in the JP cartoon. I guess it depends on how successful Animated is and whether or not it will justify the Japanese to commission sequels.

But even if the Japanese only stick with dubbing the US series -- how awesome would it be if TakaraTOMY started making toys for characters that Hasbro have given up on?
e.g.: Omega Supreme, the Constructicons, Wasp (with retooled head), Perceptor... and I'd personally like to see toys for some of the human characters. A Sari action figure would rock (even if it's just a retooled/repainted Microman figure; hey, they did it for Kicker and Gamede!). Even if they just released some non-poseable PVC figurines of Sari, Isaac, Fanzone etc., I'd totally get them. Hell, I'd even consider getting Professor Princess (if it were cheap enough )

Yeah, it's not completely implausible that they could continue Animated beyond season 3. They did it for Beast Wars as well. And obviously they've found a studio that can capture Animated's style.

I'm curious to see if they chop out any of the human villains, or change the tone of the show like Beast Wars did.

I wouldn't mind that at all. For me, the low point of TFA was the human villain storylines. I guess that's why I liked season 3 so much - there weren't any.
