btw in the third image, after Megatron says "Bah. Associating with worms. What can you do?", then he says "Perhaps you should so me, Optimus Prime". I don't know about anyone else but that doesn't make any sense to me. What's it supposed to say? Aside from that nice translation  .

Megatron is asking Prime to show him what Prime can accomplish by working with the fleshlings. I couldn't really get the total Japanese nuance into that one since the verb used means "hang out" in slang whereas the literally meaning is to "copulate (for animals)." Actually, "slumming" might be a better fit, really. Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and change it. I like "slumming around" better.
The "What can you do?" is not a rhetorical question so much as it is a direct one.
It's a very Japanese thing, really. Kind of like Street Fighter Alpha 3 when the fight with Bison starts with saying "Show me an enjoyable fight" (loosely translated). Megatron basically says the same thing, but it references the previous statement regarding Prime's dubious associates.
Hope that made it clearer. |

or are you just changing them to make it easier on the people not familiar with the Japanese terms? http://www.tfwiki.net - I'm a pepper! Wouldn't you like to be a pepper, too?

You mean that after he tells Prime to show him what he can do, that they cut to an entirely different scene and never show Prime doing anything?
And yeah, I changed Destron, Cybertron, and Convoy to match their English counterparts.
No sense translating them into weird Japanese names - although I am more partial to "Micron" than I am "Minicon." |

EDIT: N/M, I totally overlooked that.
God, how did I screw that up?
