    You don't know that - He could have returned to Earth following the events of Predacons Rising and Not to mention if it were multiple humans it would Imply "Old Friend(s)" - The Synopsis of the episode reads as "Old Friend" therefore implying "One" - Not multiple beings as you suggest and who's to say it can't be possible for Ratchet to return - I think he deserves another appearance in The Aligned Continuity - It's been long overdue

    Yeah I'm 100% sure it's Ratchet at this point. "Old Friend" hints to Ratchet, there's a bunch of Ratchet toys coming up in the RID line and frankly is just makes the most sense.

    Granted they could throw us a curve ball but I highly doubt it. Anyways, looking forward to seeing Prime and Ratchet's reunion after all this time.

    For me it was always 8:30 so in the UK it must be UTC 7:30. 24min to go.

    nice, the livestream is offline

    My sentiments exactly (specially considering it's 3 in the morning here and I just wake up from a 3 hour nap)

    We have to create a better one for Fall 2016 and I feel with you. 3am.
    Your success in 2016: Have the motivation for waking up at 3am for RiD. :D  I wouldn't have that. I am always sleeping when The 100 airs at 4am for me. Sleep > everything else

    At least my perfect beginning of the day isn't failing again. "Misdirection" will air here in Germany. I am really exited to hear the voices of Glowstrike, Saberhorn and Skorpnok. Hope someone is uploading the ep. of the finale fast. Would be awesome.

    Waking up at 3am every day of the weekend is probably the only thing I've achieved this year so far tbh x')
    I used to be awake until 3~4am when the episodes first aired on Australia (so I could upload them) so it's an improvement at least. Dunno where my motivation comes from. I must really like robutts

    Ah well I can't say I'll be happy I'll probably catch spoilers until the re-run/someone uploads the episode, but at least I get to go back to sleep fast /shrugs

    Oh, is the German dub any good? I don't think I've ever heard it :0

    (I have some issues with the Brazilian dub bc some names like 'Steeljaw' are so weird for us to pronounce and bc sometimes the dubber doesn't really fit the character that well but it's all they have, tho comparing to tfp [it's the same company and same crew basically] it's improved a lot hmm)


    EDIT: hey look!! the stream is online!! i wonder what i miss-
    oh. it's only playing arabic music. okay. never mind then.

    Okay I got some glimpses of the episode (and recorded it, so expect some clips soon) and I gotta say that I wasn't expecting an actual explanation.

    Yas! At least one archievment! xDD

    For the first season it was pretty good! I was exited that they managed to translate all the jokes which sound good. And sometimes it's hard because you only can create those jokes only in the english language. And all these "Bee-fight-leamleader-phrases" (which failed all the time) are translated in a good way. I am exited about Saberhorn and Overloads voice in the season 2 because they two have accents or talk funny. For Thunderhoof I think the german voice is better than the english one. He has a more dark-boss voice with authority. In english it sounds so rough. For the names - they use the english ones as usual. They don't translate it like the japanese or chinese versions.
