  • Rattrap looks funny lol

  • Hironobu Kageyama makes ANYTHING infinitely more awesome.

  • wow what have they done to silverbolt?

  • Wait wait wait, Beast wars metals? What?! Why can't Japan call different seasons of things different seasons instead of making up crazy titles. Don't get me wrong we do this too *cough* Ben Ten Alien force *cough* but they do it to the extreme.

  • @yoshimickster It was called Metals, since this did not come immedeateily after season 1. In Japan it was in this order of production. Season 1, then II, then Neo and then Metals, they were waiting for 26 more CGI episodes so they could be dubbed all at once, however some of Season 2 did get used in the Beast Wars II movie.

  • I'm sorry, but don't you mean "Rattrap" doing the intro words?

  • Why do I get the feeling that this kind of music should've been in Mystical Ninjas?

  • Happy happy!?

  • KAGE-CHAN KICK ASS!

  • Translation of start.

    Happy? I'm Happy! I'm the wolf and eagle Fuzor warrior Silverbolt! PEACE! To protect the heroes, I will also try my best in the fight! Right, so now it's the start of Beast Wars Metals! Enjoy!

  • Motherfuckin' Hironobu Kageyama! :D

  • Besides the HAPPY, the song itself was rather nice to listen to.

  • seriously this is nice and all but japan needs to stop taking american transfomrers and narrating where there isn't narrating, and adding pointless sound effects.....its just gets old. enjoy it for what it is and don't botch it up by adding lyrics to an already epic theme

  • @Saberwind45871 WTF i thought that was rattrap -_-''

  • The epicness starts after 0:12

  • I think some of you have loose screws in your heads. This happen to be the best Japanese opening themes.. For ya information, the Japanese came up with this first. We dubbed off of them. Get the story right or don't tell it at all.

  • @The2009Ryuk wait...originally wern't the original transforers made from the minds of americans? yes they were based off of a japaneese toyline at the time but wasn't the series itself made in america? and wasn't beast wars also made by the same minds that created the original? but they hired animaters and artists to do the cgi work? and that the only true japanees beast wars out there is 2 and neo?

  • @Saberwind45871 Indeed. Infact, only four of the television Transformers series were made state side. Wish they were ALL made state-side then we wouldn't have *shivers* Kiss-players.

  • @Saberwind45871 also...for the love of God, please japan please...stop taking good theme songs and feeling you have to mess em up by adding narration and other sound effects....STOP!

  • ha ha japan we beat you this time but you beat us with armada ( season 2 is better ) superlink galaxy force and animated but we still beat you with beast wars

  • WTF?!? "Happy! Boku wa happy!"  what the hell is this?!?

  • oh snap! isnt that the same singer for dragon ball z?

  • @Jehuty989 yes., u're right...

  • this OP puts the North American one to shame

  • this is a cheap version of transformers

  • @keyblader32 because it has an actual story, and the episode plots don't include anything but stealing energon.

  • Wow, we make thier opening seem like baby food and thier dub version lol. I have to say a lot of work went into dubbing back then, not like nowadays tsk tsk.....

  • I still appreciate the actual Japanese dub of this show, just the same as I think the original Japanese version of the Dragonball series was good in it's own way...but they REALLY needed to add more seriousness into the show.

    I actually thought Ryoutarou Okiayu (also voiced Kuchiki Byakuya & Kunimitsu Tezuka) would've been perfect as the voice of Megatron...that guy is VERY good at sounding passionately evil & serious, and even fittingly insane for Rampage's voice!

  • The animation in this show and Reboot were ahead of their time and must have cost a fortune.

  • Lovin this Japanese rock opera going on.

  • that "last stand" scene with dinobot, cheetor and rattrap when its all wild west and they have big guns is awsome

  • Thats funny as hell, used to love that show!

  • ya gotta admit the japanese sure makes transformers look waaay cooler

  • @TheLoonatix

    And yet the actual Japanese dub of Beast Wars was horrendous. They literally took the show and made it into a comedy, taking any seriousness out of it.

    And yet then they had Hironobu-friggen'-Kageyama sing this song. And it makes me almost forgive them. Because this IS an awesome song.

  • @LEW2X I kinda though Beast Wars was way to serious for a Transformers series, though >.> They killed off almost half the cast in one episode if memory serves correctly.

  • @ShuHibiki Actually, they killed off Optimus Primal at the end of the first season, Terrorsaur and Scorponok within the first ten minutes of season two, Tigatron and Air Razor were captured by the Vok halfway through the season, Dinobot in "Code of Hero" (BEST. EPISODE. EVER.), Transmutate in the episode of the same name, and Ravage in the season finale. anyone else died in the last three episodes of the series, not counting Beast Machines. But you are righ season 2 was very serious and dark

  • I swear all Japanese opening theme songs, have to sound like some rock opera bullshit. American 90's kids weren't into J Pop dammit!

  • wait what??wasnt this series american??

  • @Destro4thewin Beast wars was made in Canada.

  • @Raynemeister american canada whats the difference???

  • @Destro4thewin don't say that to a Canadian, they take a lot of offense to that lol.

  • Hilarious

  • Wow...Seriously, Japan...

  • jesus christ does anyone know where the actually beast wars intro is, not all this dumb faggot shit that just reminds me of what gay is.

  • This opening is godawful, the singer sounds like he has a dead poodle shoved down his mouth hole.

  • Was that silverbolt?

  • Its so funny, yhe way they've cut the clips together u really would think the show was from japan, it has that kind of feel to it. Its amazing the effect that music can have on one's impression

  • Penguin's aquariumlike lair and Shreck's. See this movie free @ Movie Watcher [.] US

  • My vehicle alt mode for Silverbolt: a f-22 raptor.

  • Comment removed

  • This opening sounds way better than the first one.

  • @Dave102693

    But, it still sucks as a whole.

  • wow this is just bad. The american intro kicks the crap out this version by 10 million percent...

  • It was Canadian, not American!

  • Whoever it was that down graded my comment is a typical YouTube idiot who dosen't think and listen to FACT! Mainframe the company that produced the CGI Beast Wars series IS Canadian, even the voice cast IS Canadian, like it or not!

  • @v3teran Canadian. But yes, the western is always better.

  • this is pretty good, i like the gitar that plays.

  • 1:20 EPIC!

  • at the stard

    happy!bokua happy!(happy is the name of that cat from fairy tail LOL)

  • Well, that was way better than the first one, but the opening dialogue was really lame.

  • A freaking MEN!

  • who is DOING the dubbing now?

  • This intro's pretty good, but it ends about 20 seconds too late. If it finished at 1:20 it would have been more impressive.

  • i agree. but how come its only dinobot, ratrap, and cheetor in there and everyone else looks like they are ready to shoot them?

  • It's a scene from the end of the first episode. Optimus Primal had been blown up, and Rhinox was busy trying to bring him back. Airazor and Tigatron were trying to recapture Blackarachnia, leaving only Rattrap, Cheetor, and Dinobot to defend the base.

  • Comment removed

  • what have they done to my fave childhood cartoon!

  • If you hate that you're REALLY gonna hate what they did to Megatron in the Japanese beast wars....

  • オリジナルのダイノボットが最高に格好良い!

  • uy me encantaba mi favorito era el chita:D

  • I used to always collect the figurines they were the best toys ever

  • BW isn't shit fool, you are.

  • Exactly.

  • @vegeta353658 damn straight dude!

  • @vegeta353658 What about Beast Machines?

  • @Teddytheteddybear Dude my comment was 2 years ago.

  • fuck yeah mic sounders

  • CAN'T UNHEAR.

    Was Silverbolt's JP VA REALLY good ol' Mic the 13th?

    Because it really does sound like him.

    Also wow, compared to "War War! Stop it", this is awesome. Most likely due to Kageyama.

  • Agreed. Kageyama is awesome.

  • Not bad.

  • I'm sorry, but to me this proves that masocuring a dub isn't confined to this side of the world.... ugh....

    Still, thanks for posting it. It's... interresting, if nothing else.

  • wat are u talkin bout??? its right on the right side..beast wars II opening

  • I already know about BWII and BWNeo. I was asking if Beast Wars Metals was ever an original japanese show.

  • Heh. I have the mp3 for this

  • man how come japanese intro sounds and songs all sound liek one guy sang em all

  • They were sang by Hironobu Kageyama, who sang most of the songs in DBZ.

  • Holy crap! Really? I've been listening to Super Survivor/Finish 'em Off! and Fight It Out a lot lately, and I'm surprised I didn't recognize his voice. Thanks for telling me man.

  • You're welcome.^^ He also sang a song called "Destron [Decepticon] Song of Praise" for Transformers: The Headmasters.

  • i had cheator and megatron

  • every song sounds better in a difernt language that u dont understand

  • This themesong (when compared with the first) actually looks like for season 2/3 they actually dubbed it seriously...

    How deceiving...

  • Now this sounds like old-school anime, which I'm fine with.

  • WTF

  • "Happy! Boku wa happy!" Proving that Japanese dubs of American shows can be just as bad as the reverse. XD

  • yup especially with this particular dub, but personally I like both the BW Metals openings, the originals got boring after two slight remixes...

  • @SeanB2 I'd agree... except this show isn't American. It was made by Mainframe Entertainment, a Canadian company also responsible for producing Reboot.

  • Airrazor, always overlooked in the intro's.

  • This was Season 2's Japanese intro. Airrazor only appeared twice during this season!

  • 3 times, Aftermath, Coming of the Fuzors and the 1st of that two-part episode.

  • OK? I couldn't remember if Airazor made an apprence in that episode? I'm guessing you were meant to say Part 1, as it is a two part story and I defenatily knowe she dosen't appear in Part 2. The other two-parter you were thinking of was 'Other Visits' and she does appear with Tigertron in that in Part 1. Their final apprence until we see their sparkless bodies merge into Tigerhawk in season 3. But that's why there's hardily any footage of her in this opening.

  • Have to admit, the song is much better than the one for the first Japanese season. It sucks what they did to Silverbolt.

  • SHININ YOUR SOUL!!

  • "Happy! Boku wa happy!" ("Happy! I'm so happy!")

    Just the opening sequence and already Silverbolt acts out of character lol.

  • I thought that was cheetor when I heard him say how happy he was. That's a terrible voice for silverbolt.

  • Then you don't want to know about the others, especially with the females...

  • "Happy booger happy"

  • I think Japanese version is much better than US version as a Japanese.Hironobu Kageyama's dramatic voice is awesome!

  • Christ...amazing they were able to fit some show into that intro.

  • LOL. Such an Anime opening

  • This opening is wack. The American opening is much Better! Transformers and back guitaring don't match!

  • lol have you seen transformers the movie?

  • Best song ever existed!

  • do u want the fullsize mp3 of the opening song

  • i kinda like how this is seems like a new show this way lol but i seen this show over 300 times cuz its my fav

  • Mmmm sweet Pose 01:18-01:20.

  • silverbolt sounds like he's either on drugs or got his metal nuts squashed - or both...

  • I thought it was cheetor

  • Nah, that's SB. Silverbolt's character was changed quite a bit in the Japanese version. In the original American release he was just a guy who tried too hard to be chivalrous and heroic, often falling short of his own expectations. In the Japanese version, they made him overly nice and happy to the point where he sounds more like a child than a fighter, ending almost every sentence with "-desu" (no real translation, just a genuinely "cute" sound) which is usually reserved for little girls.

  • No、It is surely silvervolt.

    His voice in Japanese version is higher than US.

  • bestAAAAA waaaarssss !!

  • I wonder why the Japaneses opening songs are better than Americas

  • lol i know!

  • Why does Dinobot get so much time in this one... hm. No problem there. Dinobot rocked, i was just wondering...

  • He's Transformer's Wolverine ,duh.

  • I wana listen to Eng Ver. ^^)

    URL please.

  • you could type out um "beast wars intro season 2" without the quotes, on the search box. Unfortunately, if you want to hear a translated version of this song, or a dubbed version, then I'm sorry, I don't have a link.

  • I never seen the 80's Transformers and Beast wars II and Beast Wars Neo. Anyway, these are my favourite series: Beast wars season 1, Beast wars Metals, Transformers Armada, and Transformers Cybertron. Plus the new Transformers Movie (8.5/10)

  • i oved this when i was little,but cartoon network removed it and i was sad...

  • this starts with mic sounders the 13 XD

  • oo kurde! XD "Siruvaborutu deeeesu" XD cuuuuuuuuuute :D

    I love Kageyama Hironobu [especially for his openings to Dragon Ball] and japanese language... but i prefer english version of Beast Wars ^^

    Japanese seyiuu for my beloved Dinobot sucks XD [please don't get me worng ^^] and nothing is better than english ver. of "Why universe hate Wuuuzpinatorrr?!" :* XD

  • ugh i remeber i used to be in love with that white tiger beast war...i wanted that toy soo bad when i was younger...

  • mtooo foda

  • awesome!!!

  • That's better.

  • I like the transforming sequences they used. Much better then the English version.

  • they always seem to have a better opening then we do -_-

  • How, how, HOW is Silverbolt saying "DESU~" better than the USA Beast Wars opening theme?

    Granted, I can see where there might be lulz to be found in it, but still, the American theme is 100x better.

  • I said the japanese version is better, I dont know about the jap dub though

  • This is the best Beast Wars Japanese opening ever!

  • i liked season 1 of beast wars far better than trans metals.

  • Japan did a lousy job at dubbing Beast Wars. I liked the opening, but the VA's....WHERE'D THEY FIND MOST OF THESE CLOWNS? I only liked Depth Charge, Rhinox, Optimus, Megatron, Dinobot, Scorponok, Terrorsaur, Rampage, Inferno, Waspinator, and maybe Rattrap.

  • You realize that's more than 60 percent of the characters, right?

  • Still, they were very crappy.

  • You have a point. They did that to alot of characters! Like I said, when dubbing Transformers, Japan does a very shitty job.

  • U.S.A!!!U.S.A.!!!U.S.A.!!!

  • Amusing since Beast Wars was made in Canada

  • the commentator killed it, but great jap song version anyways.

  • song's actually decent. it's a HUGE improvement over the original BW theme (WAR WAR (some japanese stuff) STOP IT! WAR WAR (some more japanese words) STOP IT!) i hated the japanese BW1 theme, so this is a huge improvement

  • Normally I'm of the opinion that Japanese anime is better then most American series but Beast Wars was butchered in the dubs.

  • Man, the american version is so much cooler!

  • agreed a lot

  • I like it.

  • Does anyone remember a transformers series that was cel-shaded and they all became dinosuars? I remember Optimus being a T-rex.

  • I actually really like this song. I love these kinds of theme songs. They make me feel like a kid again.

  • yo thats the worst intro song ever

  • There could be much more soldiers (i.e. Air Hammer and Polar Claw).

  • ummm were beastwars and transformers both made in japan? or just transformers?

  • Neither. They are both American.

  • Beast Wars and Beast Machines were both animated in Canada, but since it was Takara Toys which gave Hasbro the idea for the orginal G1 Transformers, they also distributed the Beast Wars toys over in Japan and a Japanese dub of the show was also made. They even made 2 exclusive anime series about Beast Wars.

  • where can i view these online?

  • Ugh, i did not like the show when the Metals were introduced. Their forms looked plain hideous then <.<

  • chitor looks better in the other form the second form it look like a lion - phanter

  • those transformers llok cool did they ever look like that in the american show
