The episode where Ratchet and Optimus go on a mission together then end up fighting a huge horde of dark energon decepticons with their swords was PEAK.
The only reason they killed off breakdown, is because his voice actor was demanding a huge percentage of the shows budget for his pay. They killed off his character because they simply didn’t have enough budget to keep him in and weren’t entirely sure if the show would continue long enough for there to be a need for a replacement voice actor
Apparently Dreadwing, Arachnid, and Breakdown were all cut earlier than intended because the voice actors were becoming too expensive. That's why their stories, especially Breakdown, felt wasted.
I’ve been a Fan of Transformers for like 8 months, and Prime is what started that rabbit hole. A month before i started watching it, I saw a clip from the show on RUclips. it was the one from the episode where bumblebee gets in Megatrons head, and Megatrons just like “What are you doing inside my head!?” And I was just like “Huh, this show looks cool, I’ll have to watch it sometime” then a month later I got bored and decided to watch it, and that’s what kicked off my Transformers hyperfixation. I love this show so much, it’s definitely one of my absolute favorites.
In-terms of writing, Animated and Beast Wars take the cake, but overall, Transformers Prime in PEAK!! Fun factthe first season of Prime was made in only 9 Months.
The Vehicons being a threat in the first episode but weaker later is the conservation of ninjutsu,one thug is a threat but an army of them are cannon fodder. The same thing happens with the insecticons TFP is the best version of Megatron, he seems like a combination of G1 and Bayverse. This is Frank Welker's best performance as Megatron as I couldn't take G1 Megatron seriously 😂😂😂
You're not far off. In nerdom, it's been commonly called 'The Inverse Ninja Rule'. One is always on par with the hero, but when 20 are involved, it's like the power of that one is split among them all. The whole idea of it is lame in general and I hope more franchises take note.
I love the original G1 series, and I thought the story telling in Beast Wars was great. Animated had some decent fights, and Cyberspace actually surprised me. However, it was the Prime series that restarted my love for the franchise again. Everything about it reignited my desire for lore, games, comics, cartoons and even toys. Prime is THE Transformers series for me.
I guess I'd recommend Armada, which has one of my favorite Starscream iterations. It's a bit generic mission-of-the-day show at the beginning, but steps up down the line. If you watch it, you're kinda obligated to watch Energon next, which is its sequel. The CGI is rough, but not unbearable. The cartoony shading does make it hold up in the long term.
@@TreeGUYYYY I'm looking forward to your thoughts on RWBY. I like to form my own independent opinion on something by watching it myself and not let the opinions of others influence it. That way, if I like or hate the show, it's because of the show itself and not because of the bandwagon or hate train effect.
They revived him twice, but it didn’t ruin the story for some reason. Probably the first time they slowly showed the audience that he was gonna come back, and the second time they just had a good excuse
Arcee is the best character in the show and she's hot just like her latest iteration in Rise of the beasts last year and then aside from Megatron and Soundwave, Shockwave really wasn't forgettable imo him and Dreadwing are tied for my favorite Decpticons closely followed by Knockout also Predaking is the goat plus the whole thing with Unicron being the Earth is what the Last Knight tried and failed at sticking the landing
G1 is pretty good, especially in the third season where the stakes feel a little higher and the story is more serious due to Optimus's death in the movie. Also, the Japanese sequel series are good, besides headmasters, which has all the problems season 3 had and a horrible English dub. Transformers Victory is the best of the sequel series in my opinion because of how quickly we get into the action, and the characters are good.
Great review. I myself made a video about the whole TFP series several months ago, and it’s been getting a lot of views lately. Transformers: Prime: Post-10 Year Retrospective ruclips.net/video/UV3EI6VZLMM/видео.html I also did a video a few months before that one where I talked about Dreadwing, and I definitely agree he and other characters like Breakdown, Airachnid, and Smokescreen had missed potential. Despite knowing a lot about the lore of the original 80s Transformers and the movies, TFP grew to be my favorite. Also, I’d recommend watching Beast Wars next.
That episode where Ratchet makes robo-meth and then goes on a bender is absolutely incredible. One of the absolute best episodes.
Green Energon is one hell of a drug
I thought the show was making a steroid joke but this is way funnier 💀
"man this energon aint shi-"
*fucking becomes bayverse optimus in ratchets body*
That moment where bulkhead ignores his own weight and physical limitations and just goes full fuckn sonic 😂

I remember loving this show as a kid i think i might need to rewatch it

0:30 i will forever be an Animated lover. Prime is my second favorite.
I can't believe he got cancer
Transformers: Prime was the show that made me into a Transformers fan after I officially quit being a My Little Pony fan in 2019.
I guess I'd recommend Armada, which has one of my favorite Starscream iterations. It's a bit generic mission-of-the-day show at the beginning, but steps up down the line.

I was about 10 when prime came out so little me holding his cybertron optimus prime was THRIVING. You HAVE to watch animated. It's peak.
he said he watched it
@@pacstermhI put this comment when I finished the video and he said that at the start so I forgot
I heard RWBY music and now subbed.
lol I’m literally writing the script for my RWBY blind review rn
@@TreeGUYYYY I wish you good luck.

I always like to view transformers prime as the beast wars of its time.
Great story,well written characters and overall a good time.
0:16 lmao i watched that too but i watched prime and rescue bots too
Prime by far has my favorite Megatron
They revived him twice, but it didn’t ruin the story for some reason. Probably the first time they slowly showed the audience that he was gonna come back, and the second time they just had a good excuse
Watch armada next

Two words Beast Wars
The superior Transformers show
@@jimmyrobot3170 Except from the blinding visuals.
Yeah, beast wars is pretty good too.
@@spiderman-2416the cgi ain’t bad, the rendering is just dated
