    Why have them say Transform to transform. It literally makes no sense as Bumblebee doesn't do it. Its like they are saying Transform for the hell of it.

    Arcee saying 'saiyaku' all the time sounds funny as hell.

    I think they did that in the English dub of Armada, too. Transform! Transform!

    Ok... no subtitles? Has anyone created a Japanese transcript? With that I can make my own translation.

    I mute the audio and played it with Beast Wars Metal's Tamashi No Evolution, Sennen no Soldier, Car Robot's Overdrive, Galaxy Force's Ignition and TFA's Transformers Evo.

    All of them are better fitting, hell for shits and giggles i played War War Stop It! and it fits even better with the show than Feeling.

    Officially the worst Japanese opening yet, doesn;t help when half he song is English.

    Well, I never thought that when we heard Vector Sigma speak, it'd be to tell an idol group about the TF franchise. lol

    Since Miko didn't mention her host parents, I'm figuring they're going to unsurprisingly drop the whole aspect of her being an exchange student.

    And just to nitpick, it's actually "saiaku," not "saiyaku." :wink:  There's a pretty big difference in meaning. (最悪 vs. 災厄)

    Re: StarYoshi14--if you think BigBang's English is bad, God forbid you hear some recent Japanese rock music. XD

    That opening is the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my entire life.

    10/10 would laugh hysterically again

    I was annoyed when they did it too lol However Bumblebee being a mute in this makes it impossible to be a necessity to transforming.

    The Japanese opening and ending are both ridiculously, ludicrously, laughably stupid, IMO.

    My only question is why is anyone surprised with how bad this is? It's like BigBang was trying too hard to be hip.

    The Japanese opening was pretty bad. Looked like something fan made. the music didn't even sync well with what was being shown. It's like shopping mall music

    The opening is terrible. I mean what in the world were they thinking? The ending is more tolerable. The whole episode as a whole wasn't that bad, but what is up with Starscream's voice?

    I got bored at about 5 mins in, oh well. I'll listen to the ending though.
