  • @CherriBlossomTV
    @CherriBlossomTV 4 года назад +4

    I have a theory, after multiple watches of seasons 1 and 2 of ascension, it's obvious that Black Shadow has some connection to the terminus blade, as well as the Circle. Yet, Wreckage say that Black Shadow went unnoticed by Megs, the Triumvarite, all of that. So what if he isn't serving Megatron at all? What if, he's a herald of Unicron? I mean, it sounds pretty far fetched but look at the evidence I have:
    It's obvious Black Shadow cares not for the winning of the war, he has his own agenda, as seen the prelude to breakout he went behind the Triumvarite's back to get some research, research we have yet to know what it's about.
    Black Shadow makes it clear that he has power over Megatron, as seen when Megatron threatens the bot and he just shrugs it off and makes Megatron forget about whatever happened.
    Black Shadow went unnoticed by the heads of the decepticons, while this may not be big, what if Black Shadow, in an attempt to gain recognition, searched the galaxy for power. Eventually, he found it in Unicron. Now, while this all seems far fetched, look at the lengths he went to to find Cyclonus and the other members, the other *shards* I doubt a simple decepticon seeker would ever be able to not only, and most likely, be able to take down an entire order with members as powerful as Cyclonus, and walk away unscathed or without any withdrawls. Think of if this was say.. Acidstorm, in his position. Without any outside help he'd be melted scrap with the power of the order and all that. Joe, I'd love to hear your opinion on this, even if I'm wrong it's an interesting thought ^^

    • @CrosshairsProductions
      @CrosshairsProductions  4 года назад +2

      some intelligent points, someone's paying attention!

    • @CherriBlossomTV
      @CherriBlossomTV 4 года назад +2

      Thank you! I have one more theory of which I'd be very interested to hear your opinion on, just because this one is much, much more far fetched than the last one:
      So, while I was re watching season 1 of Ascension, I noticed a detail that, while small, stuck out to me. In episode 1, when Megatron is being broken out he isn't acting very.. Megatron-like, he's just sitting there, accepting his fate after being captured. And only starts to act more like himself when he is given the shard. So this led me to believe a possible MTMTE Megatron redemption ark, if you will. Now, I do have more evidence to support this claim: When Black Shadow threatens Megatron, it was pretty interesting how he made Megs forget about the entire conversation, while this may be just so Black Shadow could hide his own agenda yet again, I believe it's the shard in a way, "losing control" of Megs, and back in season one, Megatron is looking at his hand, spaced out. While this may be a small, not important detail, it's something a stereotypical killer would do after murdering someone, look at the blood on their hands. And with the way the shot was taken, I believe Megatron was looking back on his past actions, almost with regret. And also to back up my claim of the shard almost being like a parasite, Megatron's response to Deadlock when he's talking about the mission, he doesn't remember it until just a few moments later and snaps back into command. Now, I know how far fetched this theory is so I don't expect it to be right at all, but these were just some things I noticed ^^

    I really like how you gave the chance for other Decepticons to shine, enough for me to hunt down a Wreckage, Lugnut and Dropshot for my own collection. I especially like seeing Lugnut reaching in to grab Cyclonus and then chuck him out the ship; I dunno why but just seeing that happen made me smile.
    So, just to keep track of the Terminus shards, the one that Black Shadow stole from Cyclonus is the same that he gave to Megatron, and this time-manipulating one is a completely different one? Either way, I just hope Dropshot and Wreckage don't foolishly bring up their suspicions to Megatron considering that he's Black Shadow's puppet at this point. And speaking of the manipulator, I can't wait for everything falls apart for him.
