Yes those are also excellent examples of timing the music and animation into something that really stands out. The music stands out enough to easily it pick it out quickly from other opening themes.

 

THIS! Yes please!

 

Excellent explanation. That's what I was trying to get at. Appealing both visually and audibly, melding together in harmony.

 

+1

 

It reminds me of the opening of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles when they freeze frame and name the Autobot in the picture. I wouldn't be surprised if Optimus gets named at the end when he returns

 

Horrible, easily forgettable theme "song". I'll try to watch a couple episodes online to give it a chance but I'm not a fan of the designs or the animation. Credit where credit is due though, at least they're try something different.

I'm with Kickback though, I miss the days where the mainline was strong enough to appeal to both kids and collectors alike. As maligned as the Unicron Trilogy is, there was plenty for us adults to like amidst the toys' gimmicks and shows nonsense.

 

Yeah I've found myself missing Armada in particular. If nothing else the animation wasn't stylized and we got a wide variety of interesting figures. Back then I swore off the idea of wanting an anime Transformers again due to the horrible dubs. Now I'd love to see one again.

 

Totally.

A legit Transformers anime that's properly dubbed would be amazing.

 

I'll give it a few episodes, but nothing about the show is impressing me so far

 

My kids dont like it. It is on the middle of prime and animated, which makes it neither.

 

Ditto. I'd like an anime style cartoon made in the US

 

Wow. Looks really bad. Transformers Prime will be missed.

FFS.

 

I have faith this will be much better. Look at how good animated turned out to be
