Episode 9 summary:

Spoiler

The group are going a few hurdles in order to awaken the Titan Ioconus. But they realise they need a city speaker, so they try to get Windblade. Using a signal disruptor and a cortical psychic patch, Hot Rod and Clobber go to free her. Perceptor’s device allows Windblade to see the real world. The plan fails after the Quintessons find them; Whirl is hit, but frees Soundwave. Hot Rod is taken away.

Soundwave is acting wide. Hot Rod is then taken to see “the judge” with five faces. Quintessons apparent visit multiple universes, and if found guilty, they are then destroyed. Hot Rod stalls the judge, but is found guilty; he makes way however, and eventually escapes thanks to Whirl.

Back at Maccadams, Soundwave finally awakens, and when the idea of deactivation is mentioned, he is mad. However, when Hot Rod and Whirl return, he now wants to destroy the Autobots.

Episode 10 summary:

Spoiler

The five faces judge have the Sharkticons and Quintessons go on a man hunt for Hot Rod.

Back at Maccadams, the Autobots are on one side, while the Decepticons are on another. Maccadams offers energon, as a peace offering. Soundwave try’s to take a leaders role, but glitches, because he was not properly removed from the dream. It is revealed Hound never recovered from being removed from the loop. Soundwave leaves, and gets a prosecutors, which he failed to properly deactivate, but Clobber does the job. They go to see a bail lift.

Soundwave sets the plan in motion. Clobber is ordered to take Hot Rod out, on Soundwave’s orders, but stops when Soundwave is glitching. Soundwave and Dammex fail to take the bail lift, but Hot Rod and Clobber succeed. Eventually, they all make it back to Maccadams, and Soundwave is interrogating the bail lift by using a high frequency, and says his signature line; a fight between and Hot Rod results in the former being victorious, and finding out, from the bail lift, they need to find the scientist.

Episode 11 summary:

Spoiler

Laser Beak’s origin is shown.

Bit by bit, bot’s sparks are being fully drained. The group go down a floor in the tower, and find the scientist’s room. Soundwave use his noise to open the door, but only he and Hot Rod make it to the other side, and meet the scientist. It’s revealed the scientist has been collecting multiple Soundwaves, and wants this “blue” one. The scientist fixes Soundwave; he and Hot Rod manages to defeat one scientist, only to find out the control room is not where they are at the moment, but they find the source code, and a another scientist appears.

They find out they are in a laboratory, and multiple scientist appears and died overtime. The scientist eventually captures the two bots, but Laserbeak escapes, and opens the door, to give Perceptor the source code for the loop.

The scientist is creating a new judge, and it’s revealed the quintessons are draining the all spark.

Using the cortical psychic patch, Perceptor and Clobber manipulates reality from the parade, and manages to free the Autobots and Decepticons. Hot Rod and Soundwave escape, and do a fist bump. The tower now has its shield activated.

Episode 12 summary:

Spoiler

The Judge scolds at the Scientist, but the latter assures the new judge’s creation is not at risk.

Megatron refuses to be involved in a coalition, and Hot Rod and Soundwave are trying to make the two sides work together, by putting them in the simulation. Strika, Dirge, Kup and Grimlock are failing to work together in one group. There are multiple groups sent in a simulation room. Hot Rod says “hope you got...the touch!” Which is followed by music from Soundwave. One by one, we see the group eventually work well together.

Windblade is taken by Hot Rod and Soundwave to awake the Titan, but fails. Maccadam says it’s not the best idea to awaken them.

Optimus Prime and several Autobot and Decepticon groups work together to deliver a middle, but the Sharkticons, and their leader, Lord Norg overwhelm the team. Lord Norg detonates the missile, and Windblade goes to try an awaken the Titan Ioconus again. This causes the Sharkticons to escape, but Maccadam frees Windblade, as he says he’s “lost too many cities this way.”

Quite a lot has happened within these four episodes, and Hot Rod is, so far, taking spotlight for this season. We’re being to see the scale of this battle. Tomorrow is another four part storyline, so it’ll be interesting to see what happens next in this series. You definitely don’t want to miss it.

 

Thank you for sharing Issy543. Cyberverse season 3 seems really attractive. Can't wait to see.

 

Hound? Where does Hound factor into this?

 

Spoiler

Just a name drop of a bot who apparently didn't survive or recover from the process of leaving the dream.

 

Much oof.

I hope you can get these to the Torrents, since I am looking forward to this. Also, I'm glad they are going that route when they have generics.

 

I don't have the means to torrent them, but I'm sure walruslaw will have all of season 3 up in no time, especially since season 3 will concluded by next week.

I'll agree as well, in regards to the fact they are using names for existing bots, instead of generics.

I'm surprised that Jazz hasn't made an appearance yet...

 

Well, can you DM me a full list of named characters who have shown up? From S3 onwards, not returning.

 

I'm glad we're getting so many new people

 

These are great to watch. So nice to have Transformers as an ensemble show again after all these years.
The seemingly random group of Autobots and Decepticons over the last eight episodes has been do refreshing.

 

So far Dead End, Whirl, Perceptor, and Clobber are my new favorites.

 

Episode 13 Summary:

Spoiler

Jetfire and Skybyte are circling the tower, and lure the hunters towards the Titan Icronus to see if the cloaking device works; it does, and they retrieve Perceptor’s magnifying glass.

Wheel jack reveals their tower aka their ship has a multiverse drive; hacking it will destroy it. Dammex, who I think is actually called Dead End, goes to see Megatron, to see a plan. Maccadam reveals that if they turn the cloaking device of, the Quintessons’ ship will be defenceless.

Megatron, Optimus Prime, Dead End, Wheeljack and Bumblebee are going into the ship; other groups are set up to combat the Quintessons, and the judge is leading the attack.

A fight ensures, and Optimus Prime’s group enter the ship, unaware of the Scientist; they are at the multiverse room, and find the gateway. Multiple scientists appear, and Megatron and Dead End betray the team, as they plan to take over other universes and steal the multiverse drive. The judge finds out, and begins to deactivate everyone. The judge eventually os overwhelmed, and destroys the ship by accident.

The battle is over...not. The judge reappears, and it has a new face; Starscream, who declares Cybertron as guilty.

Spoiler

Kup is giving a talk about how the battle between the judge and Cybertron ended. Also, now is when they use the Bumblebee: Cyberverse Adventure banner.

Starscream was holding onto a titan, following his escape in season 2, which passes a sun and then captured by the Quintessons’ ship. He’s the one who told the judge about the all spark. He was promised something big, but ended up being part of a judge because of the scientist.

He puts down robots, one by one, and managed to round up everyone. He is taught how to destroy a universe, but refuses to do so, until Megatron and Optimus Prime a dealt with for his humiliation. Soundwave use his low frequency noise to lead an escape team but it is not very successful; Windblade manages to escape however. Starscream has Hot Rod and Soundwave under his control, and put them in a loop where they are stuck in a room with a rust plague. Perceptor reveals that Optimus Prime and Megatron are going, as they left with the all spark.

Arcee stalls Starscream; eventually, everyone gives Starscream false information to stop his monologue. Starscream is about to torture Arcee, but then Iocronus’ presence disrupts everything.

Episode 16 Summary

Spoiler

Meanwhile, Optimus Prime and Bumblebee are struggling to reunit with Wheeljack, but then, with the use of a grappling hook, the latter is reunited. They return to Cybertron, and face the scientist.

The titans keep on fighting, and Iocronus seems to be winning. Maccadam transforms intro his “monster form” and then beings to free to captures; Hot Rod and Soundwave are free; Maccadam says his time has come; and sacrifice himself to save Hot Rod.

Wheeljack finds the actual Scientist, and defeats him. However, the other Soundwaves are activated.

Starscream destroys Iocronous’ head, thus causing him to be a city again. Cronaton and Starscream seem victorious at the moment.

There’s quite a lot of twist and turns in this season, and a lot of unexpected surprises in these four episodes. It’ll be interesting to see how this four part story concludes tomorrow. It definitely rewards you, if you have watched season 2.

Can’t wait to see how the last ten episodes conclude this spectacular season.

 

Wow it's so soon for Starscream being the main villain again. Quite unexpected.

 

Sorry to bother. Does it means that Starscream doesn't want to ruin the world at the beginning but then is willing to do so because he gets irritated by Megatron and Optimus Prime when they humiliate him?
Just want to be clear. After all it's rare for Optimus to humiliate somebody.

 

The way I interpret it, being humiliated by Megatron, as shown in Season 2 episode 2, and with Optimus Prime and the Autobots defeating him multiple time, he doesn't care about Cybertron anymore.

Spoiler

He wants it destroyed, hence why he sold the planet out to the Quintessions.

He also wants Optimus Prime and Megatron to witness it's destruction, and see the power he currently has.

 

I see. Thank you！

 

Episode 17 Summary:

Spoiler

Laserbeak awakens Windblade. Optimus Prime gives a short speech, saying the fight is not over.

Starscream orders Croaton to destroy bots. While the fight is happening, Windblade tries to communicate with Croaton, and with the help of Laserbeak, gets inside him.

Starscream is about to kill Optimus Prime, but then Megatron, who is already injured. He has a force field from his trip in the multiverse, and decides to share his power with everyone.

Soundwave eventually manages to defeat the alternative Soundwave. Starscream releases a portal that releases a substance that instantly kills bots. Dead End and Astrotrain, both who hate each other, are captured by Croaton, but Windblade eventually frees him from the Quintessons. However, Starscream is still too powerful, and Megatron, acknowledging that he mistreated Starscream, realise he must destroy him.

Turns out Megatron has the matrix of leadership, and, along with Optimus Prime’s matrix of leadership, Starscream is defeated. The portal is closed.

Cybertron is now split into two. One Autobot, and one Decepticon. Optimus Prime also says he is in Megatron’s debt.

Episode 18 Summary:

Spoiler

Clobber is now an Autobot, and is on boarder portal. Bumblebee has a new flying form.

Jetfire keeps interrupting Optimus Prime’s speech.

Bumblebee is in proton city, which is within Decepticon’s territory. Megatron has a secret plan. Optimus Prime is finding it difficult to make decisions.

Bumblebee was trying to find Windblade, hence why he is in Proton City. Shadow Striker saved her from the battle, and allows Bumblebee to take her away, before the alarm is sounded. After fighting the Insecticons, and only escaping because of Whirl, it all looks good...until Ramjet, and then Megatron arrive.

Optimus Prime intervenes, and manages to save them. Windblade is still in a comma, but Chromia has a solution apparently.

Episode 19 Summary:

Spoiler

In the past, a few bots are running away from a wolf.

Bumblebee and Chromia travelling to an Forrest, where they are trying to find pieces of Windblade’s mind, which has shattered. Using a contraption, they find Crystal City, which is a hidden city...that also manages to replicate Bumblebee and Chromia; splitting up ends up not working out for them.

Autobots units saves them, but it also frees the wolf... who also saves them. The wolf’s name is Thunder Howl, a knight of the prime. He assist them.

Bumblebee brings Thunder Howl up to speed, with vague detail. They find a labyrinth, and using Autobots unite, they eventually make through. They find the Crystal Iron King, who creates multiple Windblades to defend him. Bumblebee uses Autobots unit to become victorious, and capture a piece of her mind. They escape the city.

Episode 20 Summary:

Spoiler

A cowboy is looking for Optimus Prime in Maccadams.

The cowboy transports to a desert, and heads into Decepticon territory. A fight between him the the Insecticons occurs, and the cowboy is eventually successful. He meets Megatron, and he is told were Optimus Prime is; he is suddenly interested in recruiting him.

After going to Maccadam, he he finds out where Optimus Prime is, who is restoring Colbort Spring. A large number of bulls start running throughout the town, and Optimus Prime goes to save the civilians. The town is partly damaged.

Wild Wheel, the cowboy, was in the ark, and when it crashed into Earth, the crashed into Earth, and was abandoned. He eventually became an outlaw to get home on Cybertron. Wild Wheel kills a civilian, and a duel occurs, in which Optimus Prime wins. Wild Wheel leaves Optimus Prime.

I was wondering what the remaining nine episodes would consist of. Now I know. It’s not a bad idea, as it’s better to tell the story in this season, rather than trying to wrap things up in season 4. We’re shown the consequence of war, and the new storyline has a lot of potential. It’ll be interesting top see how everything wraps up.

It’s worth mentioning the last six episodes are airing at a later time slot, at 18:30 - 19:00. Also, the season wraps up on Wednesday, because now they are showing two episodes per day, instead of four. Makes sense that they want a consistent schedule. I look forward to watching them.

 

Does

Spoiler

Astrotrain

really show up?

 

Yes. In episodes 17 and 18, you get to see him in robot mode and vehicle mode.

 

Episode 11 is literally
