    It popped up shortly after the producers teased that a 'major player' was going to die by halfway through season 2. There's really no basis for why so many people have narrowed in on Arcee, people are crazy like that. That said, /Co/ thinks its because we've been reading too much Furman :p 

    If it makes you feel any better, to the best of my knowledge, the 'Arcee dies' bandwagon is largely confined to the TFW Prime board. I haven't seen the mentality anywhere else.

    It's such a bizarre one too, because, looking at it from a writers standpoint, it'd be like killing Hamlet halfway through the play, leaving all his issues and revenge unresolved, and even worse, rushing them out of nowhere. From a creative viewpoint, I don't see any gain to killing her at all, at least for the foreseeable future, particularly when, from the same angle, there are characters who - though I don't want them to die - are much better placed plot-wise to actually do it.

    True, but Optimus was alive for two full seasons and Dinobot was alive for almost two seasons as well. Killing Arcee in the first season would be stupid because she is the most developed character in the show at the moment and is the best female Transformer EVER, so it would be dumb to kill her now.

    Are you implying that BW Dinobot is not the best male character EVER?

    Or although I don't agree, G1 Optimus was not the best Male character EVER?

    He won't be making the same mistakes this time around, so I don't expect to see him any time soon, for a while any way. He needs to prepare.

    Fowler, Silas could also be the "major character" going to bite the dust between now and season 2.

    No. This episode came from user-edited sites, so it's most likely fake. Plus, other sites that have TV schedules for the next two weeks haven't mentioned this episode anywhere.

    Guys, while i enjoy reading rumours and stuff, please stop saying Arcee will die. T.T She is one of the best characters of the series and my favourite- ^////^ If she dies then...would suck with capital S. ^^'

    That comparison is not even in the same league. G1 ran for 2 seasons before they made the movie. They had made so many of the toys hasbro was looking for a little bit of a new direction to expand so the movie came out as basically a reboot and in order to make it bigger than life MANY main characters were killed off. They even went as far as to allow Spike to say the word shit for extra shock value. At that time, I was completely surprising to hear Spike say shit on a cartoon. That movie was purely made to shake up the entire TF universe on purpose. And it was full of win because of it.

    Killing Arcee right now is nothing at all like that. I just don't see Arcee dieing. I won't believe she will die until I see it with my own eyes.

    How do we know it isn't one of the kids who dies?

    If Hasbro knows how Popular she is they won't kill her off. Hey Waspinator was so popular they kept him alive just so he could be the universe's b*tch.

    I think him being the chew toy was what made him so popular rather than the other way around.

    I think Animated Waspinator could have made the universe his bitch if he hadn't exploded.

    In fairness, the episode title could be correct, but the episode synopsis; not so much.

    People think Arcee is going to die, but maybe they want to be dangerous, and they're going to kill off Bumblebee!

    They already promised he has the first arc of season 2 devoted to him. Bulkhead is the one that's dying. He's the one whose death can affect the status quo the most without really changing anything in the long run.
