[Transformers] When it comes to Decepticons, Megatron and Starscream are famous, but who’s the third most recognizable?

3: Japan Otaku Reviews

Triptychon

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx35

It’s Soundwave, isn’t it?

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I think it’s either Soundwave or Laserwave, but I sometimes mix them up, so I’m not qualified to answer.

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

I have the perception that there’s nothing but Soundwave, but the fact that a thread like this exists means it’s probably different.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not about status, but about popularity…

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

Isn’t that Destron, not Decepticon?

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

Hmm, isn’t it a condor?

10: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If you can ignore character duplication, then it’s Galvatron, right?

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

Who would that be in terms of status?

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it’s Cybertron, I wonder if it will be Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Rodimus.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it Bluticas?

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

Let’s ask an American.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

Aren’t the three staff officers famous?

18: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Even if they have never properly watched Transformers, it seems they know about the Condor going to blow up Commander Convoy.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a cycle.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think Soundwave is strong, especially with the vehicle mode included.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have the image that Shockwave is acting separately…

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

It should be Straxus or Brazeon.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

Let’s think about the G1 characters that appear in live action.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

Skywarp and Thundercracker are often confused because of their colors, so that’s not good.

29: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

Ugh! Even the condor!

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we’re talking about the first generation, it would be Soundwave, and overall it would be Galvatron (the more decent one).

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

Laser Wave is famous, but it probably doesn’t get as much time in the spotlight as Devastator does.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

Astrotrain is more of a lackey than an executive…

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

Jetfire!

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder why Laserwave has such a lack of appearances in the original series, as if it’s treated like it comes in a set with Soundwave.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

In Asuspada, both Soundwave and Laser appeared, but Soundwave probably had more appearances.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

Blitzwing!

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

Grimlock seems to be doing quite well too.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

The sound wave of the Asustor was incredibly cool.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

Mr./Ms. Frenzy

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if it’s Soundwave.

You’re smart too.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

Soundwave has transformed into something quite cool compared to the original, which could transform into a lamp and a digital cassette.

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Soundwave is memorable because he’s paired with Cassetticon, isn’t he?

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it has been a while since Onpa returned from GF, there are probably quite a few people who didn’t know.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

I understand the Autobots up to Optimus and Bumblebee, but I don’t know beyond that…

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s surprising that there are people who mention anyone other than the three from the original Mega-sama Stas-K Sound Wave.

I understand that the next part divides into Laser Wave, Devastator, and Condor.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like Soundwave has become extremely strong since Prime.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

When it comes to mechanics, it’s Wheeljack.

I haven’t had much of a chance to appear lately.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

I see Laser Wave every time on ED…

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

Soundwave is relatively less prominent in Japan, right?

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it a debuster?

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

Astrotrain

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we think about each one individually, there may be times when they are different.

If you think about the whole series, it’s definitely Soundwave.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

Jetron is hard to remember in the first generation due to animation errors.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

Unusually, the GF Thundercracker had a different design from Starscream.

I was overshadowed by Speedia’s combination…

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

Many people will probably remember Thundercracker and Skywarp from the Jetrons, but I think very few can name the three new Jetrons.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

On the contrary, is there a Decepticon that comes out third after Soundwave is defeated?

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

In live-action, Onpa is thoroughly neglected.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that there wouldn’t be any in Destron, but the story might change with Decepticon.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

Stusk

Astrotrain

Blitzwing

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

Shock waves are sometimes exaggerated significantly depending on the medium.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

The busty one-eyed uncle isn’t popular, but he has a character that’s easy to handle.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

Speaking of Decepticons, it’s the three strategists!

I wonder when that kind of vibe became established.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

It is indeed Soundwave.

If I had to mention another, it would be the Debuster?

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

A busty strategist whose strength is unclear.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel that the ramjet is the most well-known among the new Jettrons.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a condor, right?

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

Laser wave = shock wave

Destron = Decepticon

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

What was Thundercracker (Skywarp) even about?

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

Sentinel Prime!

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

Don’t omit the jaguar.

100: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The monocle is said to be due to illegal modifications, or that they were originally a kind-hearted politician, or that they were actually one of the original 13, which is often exaggerated in American comics about Shockwave.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

Until halfway through Frenzy, I had the image of him being like Decepticon’s Bumblebee.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

I really love Beast Megatron, but I wonder if he has any recognition.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

Dargun!

Slathole!

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the previous work, Sparrin, who was completely different, ended up using Shockwave on the admiral, which surprisingly led to the adoption of Laser Wave.

I wonder what the schedule for thinking about character settings was like.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

Someone who believes they are Megatron is a bit unusual…

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Micron trilogy has quite different names here and in the US version, so there are quite a few people who go, “Wait, are you ○○!?”

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are quite a few people whose brains are completely fried because of Beast in a certain generation…

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

Basically, the ramjet doesn’t really oppose and uses its sturdy body to charge in, so it is quite trusted by Mega.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well then, the most inconspicuous guy among the Decepticons.

I am Buzzsaw.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

Reflector

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ironhide (Bulkhead)

Armored Hide (Ironhide)

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

At that time, I couldn’t watch TF anime in the countryside, so I followed Beast Wars in Comic BonBon.

121: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I can’t remember the individual names of the combined warriors.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews

I love that the local Convoys from GF have nostalgic names like Scourge and Metroplex in the English version.

It’s complicated.

129: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I learned the breakdown at Asuspah.

134: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m the most famous in Combatron!

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

A breakdown also leaves a strong impression due to excessive self-consciousness.

137: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I like how the Ragunats feel like they’ve blended in, even though they appeared suddenly.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like Beast Megatron, so I’m interested in Captain Volca because they have a similar vibe.

140: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

There are many traitors, but it’s the first time I’ve seen someone physically sell out their comrades, Sindel.

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

Why is Cliff going through such a tragic experience?

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even if Sai Baba wasn’t discontinued, I wonder what they’ll do about the latter half being so serious with that dubbing style.

145: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Sometimes you get really important roles, right? Breakdown.

148: Japan Otaku Reviews

Motor Master is quite well-known, right?

He’s a loyal vassal and looks cool too.

149: Japan Otaku Reviews

Aren’t the other two characters pretty overshadowed in the live-action version?

“Shockwave is just a line, I just said it in one word…”

Every time Soundwave shows up, his personality is different…

150: Japan Otaku Reviews

Actually, I’m the only one who likes Stuntron the most.

151: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think the original was heavily circulated online just before the live-action adaptation, which significantly increased its popularity.

When the first Mega or Stask’s ghost appeared in Beast, most viewers were like, “Who?”

152: Japan Otaku Reviews

Due to a certain episode with a makeshift setting in the first installment, Scourge went from being a low-ranking character to an important one.

155: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the live-action version, everyone except Optimus, Megatron, and Starscream is like a background character that gets easily swept away…

156: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought it was crazy that the live-action has more scenes for the pet than for the shock wave.

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are many wave tribes, but does it really mean anything that their names are similar?

159: Japan Otaku Reviews

Someone else with a wave!

161: Japan Otaku Reviews

The live-action sound wave has a relatively high contribution level, but it’s not so prominent that if you watch without knowing, you might wonder if that was what it was like now.

162: Japan Otaku Reviews

Seacons (MF)

Seacons (BW II)

163: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the dubbed version, it’s only Optimus… but in the original version, it seems he talks a lot more, like in the live-action big-bust strategist.

166: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have the impression that Stasuke seems to lose its cuteness every time it appears.

170: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m glad that Bumblebee has a design that is closer to G1.

173: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, it feels like I’m glad I didn’t have to go to the front lines, but if I didn’t, I wouldn’t be shown on screen…

178: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it’s a G1 anime, the only choice for the third one would be Soundwave.

180: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not Destron but Destronger, and it’s surprisingly popular over there, it seems.

182: Japan Otaku Reviews

Hey, Commander.

I’m more curious about who the third most popular Autobot is.

183: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you only watch episodes 1 to 3, you’ll think it’s either Hound or Rije.
