  • this transformers anime was just flat out boring

  • @mrfeelgoodful true but awesome theme

  • This makes me think of some morning cartoon block on....G4 maybe? It was on weekday mornings, and it had G.I. Joe, Transformers Energon...Kaiju big Battle maybe? Does anyone remember this?

  • Gotta admit, compared to Armada, this kinda . . . well, sucked really. I apologize to all those who like it, if you do, fair enough. This is just my personal opinion. The combination of 2D and 3D CGI animation, kind of an epic fail. They improved it greatly in cybertron, but that series sucked due to the american dubbers trying to turn it into an Armada/Energon sequel when it was only intended to be it's own stand alone series. XD

  • @cloflo217 thats fair armada was the best of the 3. cybertron wasn't that bad but hate this one.. the episodes were boring in the beginning and that Kid was annoying as fuck

  • @VideosNoOne True dat! :3

  • @cloflo217 what does CGI mean?

  • @megasaiyan3 Computer Generated Imagery.

    Type "define:CGI" into Google.

  • @megasaiyan3 Computer Generated Image

  • why the fuck i`m watching this awesome video,lol i search random vids on youtube XD fuck i think i smoked too much ,,thing,,

  • opening songs a bit..meh. they got lazy with it

  • 0:05 why does it look like hot shot's head disappeared

  • OPTMUS PRIME SUPERMODE!!!!!

  • I think the intro voice guy thought he was in the navy or something.

  • Okay we all get it Energon is bad.....but let's be honest we would ALL rather have it on TV than half the shit on CN (destroy build destroy and dude what would happen comes to mind)

  • @jucyma along with secret mountain fort awesome,johnny test,adventure time,i agree i would rather have transformers energon or even the robots in disguise series compared to the crap they air on CN.

  • Armada is still the best of the three.

  • TF energon had the worse toys ever, i preferred the Armada toys when i was a kid. 

  • Its a great series I have seen every episode.

  • An opening that tells us NOTHING about the series itself, just the toys your should be buying? Yeah, this is a Transformers opening alright...

  • TRANSFORMER ENERGON IS AWESOME LOVE THE OPENING.

  • Energon (like all transformers should be) was made for kids. The haters need to get a life, my kids loved it. They also found it funnier than the other series (in particular snow cat). The worst Transformers (in my opinion) has to be the films, as they are not age appropriate for the fans (kids) and toy range. That said, as an adult I didn't think the first 2 movies were that bad as audio-visual experiences,and had some entertaining moments.

  • @renngretsch the only non-age appropriate one was transformers:revenge of the fallen,whikle the first movie and DOTM aren't that bad.

  • I like Energon and Armada. Cybertron is WTF!!!!!

  • I don't know why everyone hates Transformers Energon?it wasn't that bad.

  • @UltraGamemaster Because compared to Armada and Cybertron, it sucked!

  • i used to have hot shot and inferno. and they combined!!! then my mom threw them away when we were moving. i miss those toys!!

  • This was probably....actually, scratch the probably, this was the ONLY good thing about Energon.

  • At 0:16 how was the jet drifting on the road like a car? I checked it didnt have wheels

  • @ricemazter It's TF Energon. Full of weird stuff.

  • I take it im the only one here who likes energon :)

  • It sounded weird

  • I loved the armada series. I made more sense then the transformers we have today

  • I liked energon series mainly cuz it was a continuation of armada =)

  • well lets face it, energon wasnt THAT good, but if you ask me it was still a FAR better series than cybertron

  • epic failed

  • is dis anime?

    

  • Haters gonna hate but I think that Optimus Prime is cool =O

  • God I hated transformers Energon. This was the worst transformers series ever.

  • starscream

  • I grew up with Energon...or was it Armada?

  • Energon is the sole reason why japanese should stay away from making transformers cartoons. 

  • i seriously think they shouldve never dubbed it and left it as a subbed jap version instead

  • At about 0:05 Hot Shot's head comes off and completely leaves the screen, only for another one to appear when he forms the top half of a linked Autobot.

  • energon was alright, but not the best tf series.

  • first time i saw this on cartoon, i was like bullshit. now im looking back at it, and its really cool. its kinda sad i didn watch it.

  • The theme is the best part of this series. Honestly, I hardly remember watching it and I now I know why......because it sucked! Animated is way better than this and so Cybertron actually mad up for this sad excuse of a series (where they hardly transformed!!!!!)

  • I have to ask the Energon fans.... what is it about Energon that you like? Because I made great sport (and a drinking game) of highlighting its problems in a series of posts called "Fun With Energon" (search my channel), and I can't help but wonder what it is that Energon's fans actually see in it that I'm apparently missing.

    BTW, that's an actual question, not just me ragging on it.

  • @AeonMagnus My answer is Kicker =)!

  • @Gohhaomeng Ah. Humor.

  • @AeonMagnus My Favourite Part? The intro. That's about it.

  • @Gohhaomeng ya if u whant him to say good job u better ecspect a kick

  • @AeonMagnus The graphics and the music

  • @AeonMagnus

    I only liked the first few episodes I mainly just liked it for the toys and comics

  • @AeonMagnus i think it's cool

  • @AeonMagnus I guess that kids are more naive. They don't care about writing, acting, editing, or logic, they just want entertainment. I've read the TFWiki page a couple of times and just about every part of Energon was inferior, even when I compare it to Robots in Disguise or Transformers: Generation 2. But to be fair, Energon's production was too rushed. But Transformers: Cybertron is where the franchise really hits its stride (At least that's how I see it, anyway.)

  • @AeonMagnus I have to say, what I like about Energon, is the story-line, the characters, especially Kicker, but I do have to say that I don't care for the fact that EVERY Autobot can combine, but other than that one thing, I love Energon.

  • @omegaprim See, that's what I don't get. The storyline was all over the place. Kicker hates TFs, then he leads Autobots, Rodimus doesn't agree with Optimus, then he works for him, saving Unicron, destroying Unicron, repeating everything from the cities on the planets, Inferno's story just stops, Demolishor stops pondering good and evil and becomes a monkey... the dialogue rarely describing events or intentions didn't help either. Kicker regularly tops most-hated lists along with the Armada kids.

  • @AeonMagnus my brain now hurts from that...

  • Energon had a strong beginning, some good characterization, especially with Starscream or Demolishor... then threw it all away for nothing. Every character thrown into Energon had first a pretty neat background, be it Shockblast, Wing Dagger, the Maximuses or even Rodimus, then the makers go all like "screw this shit, robots don't need personnalities". Shockblast was by my opinion one of the most accomplished characters of this show though.

  • @CultistRayqui So true. Almost every character had something interesting about them when they first started. Not one actually lived up to that potential, as it was tossed away 5 mins later. I'd add Scorponok to that list; he had an intriguing origin, but got mind-wiped into a lackey and spent the rest of the series with his visor down. They all ended up "Yes sir!"-ing and grunting (whether it be that fire-weapon-grunt thing, run-grunting, or just the classic "huh?") their way through the series.

  • @AeonMagnus And thus Shockblast and Six Shot were the most interesting 'Cons. And that's not saying much. Not to mention the dub scrapped the already flawed storyline...

  • @AeonMagnus *Snicker* Suddenly I have this image of Demolishor jumping around screeching like a monkey while scratching his head and asking for lugnuts.

  • @Nanya As I recall, on at least one occasion he was literally thumping his chest and doing monkey backflips. Although I couldn't actually tell you what episode it was. Someone who watched Energon _not_ on 1.3x regular speed might be able to confirm/clarify.

    Such a waste of an interesting character trying to find his place in the universe. Was he an Autobot? Did he believe in the Decepticon cause any more? What about his human and Autobot friends? What does Megatron's return mean?

    Mind-wiped.

  • @AeonMagnus Yeah. Energon really was horrible. Which is too bad, considering that they had an excellent dub cast for it too.

    I just like to think of Energon as filler between Armada and Cybertron. You could ignore Energon and not lose anything.

    Really, the only thing that Energon had going for it was the opening music.

  • @AeonMagnus energon sucks and it's boring. I only like it because it's a squeal to Armada. Armada was my first experience of the awesomness of the Transformers

  • @AeonMagnus KICKER AND ROADBUSTER make Transformers Superlink/Energon awesome!!!!!!! (I don't call him Ironhide; to me, Ironhide is a weapon specialist, not a kid rookie.) I don't care how much hate Kicker or Roadbuster get. Those 2 are a memorable duo and I'm always anxious to find out what'll happen to them. They also make me laugh and cry.

  • @AeonMagnus nothing its like power rangers it just a long running comcerial aimed at pushing merchandise off on impresionable children.

  • @flippinburger777 Transformers, including G1 and many other post-80s cartoons, was always thus. However, some versions, such as Prime, Animated and Beast Wars, have done so more gracefully, less bluntly and with greater creativity than others.

  • @AeonMagnus Really, I think most energon fans just grew up with it. And that is a very valid reason for liking a show.

  • @AeonMagnus it's better than what Micheal bay produced.

  • @digirockmon327 With the Bay films, you knew what to expect based solely on his filmography. They were never going to be Merchant Ivory films; they were action blockbusters, big explosions, with only enough plot to prop the thing up.

    Energon (and Super Link) undid and negated not only Armada threads and characterizations, but those it started to set up itself. So the finger-puppets just wound up grunting and "Yes Sir!!"-ing through a plot that kept circling a destination it didn't seem to know.

  • Personally, I have more respect for the film line. Put somewhat bluntly, they didn't aim too high or try to be something they were never going to be, and they (mostly) succeeded at being exactly that. They're a perfect example of the thing that they are.

    Energon seemed to wanted to be a grand, galactic drama, an epic tale. Not surprising with Unicron at the center and characters with a variety of backstories mixed through the cast. Instead, we got "Battlefield Earth".

  • @AeonMagnus simple optimus

  • @AeonMagnus I like it because A. the kid in me is like "OMG COMBINING ROBOTS IS SO FUCKING AWESOME!" then mecha fan in me is like "HOLY FUCK YES COMBINING ROBOTS!"

    Seriously the plot was decent, lots of things wrong but hey it's a fun ride.

  • @AeonMagnus it had a pretty good opening, i was also gonna say that its better than Robots In Disguise, but pretty much all the other TF series are better than that one too

  • @AeonMagnus I liked it, and still do, because it was the first Transformers series that I watched. ^w^

  • @AeonMagnus GIANT FUCKING ROBOTS THAT TRANSFORM. I can't believe you missed it

  • @immajusticeleague All Transformers are like that. If only that was enough.

  • i really like this version and another newer version call cyberton as i think and i really like them more than the movie

  • FATIMUS PRIME!!!

  • Energon,Cybertron,Armada=Beast

    Armadas My Fave Tho

  • Armada was better imo

  • energon and cybetron are the best seasons

  • @Gogeta5SSJ ARMADA!!!!!!!!

  • @irondeth2 Your right about Armada being a Awesome seasons!!

  • @SoulSilverGirl1 yeah, its my fav season, fuck the animated series lol

  • @irondeth2 Same here!!! Armada has been my fav season by fare!!!!!!

  • @SoulSilverGirl1 yeah, its my fav season, fuck the animated series lol

  • Comment removed

  • @souljjah1234 Please don't engage in name-calling or make it personal.

  • this is just GREAT!!

  • this theme is gay and cool at the same time

  • This gave me life when I was four

  • this intro of tf is better then any other i have seen

  • *sniff* I really miss this series, you don't wanna know how long it took me to find this opening (I forgot which of the series it was TwT) but damn I really wanna watch it now!

  • さっすが海外!!かっこいいです!!

  • 15 YouTube users don't know there's more than meets the eye.

  • The bit at 0:13 sounds like something from Ape Escape.

  • im so mad. i used to have hot shot and inferno and i lost them when i moved one time. i still have my optimus prime tho!

  • anyone know where i can find the full version

  • @kan0556 Full version of what?

  • full version of the theme (over 0:33 seconds)/ I search all over the internet but the result was 0

  • @kan0556 This is the full version. TV themes aren't very long.

  • @AeonMagnus This is not exactly right. The Animated Series has a longer one. But you are right, too. I mean TV-themes are not long and often there is not an longer version of them. ^^

  • @AlphaofEltar Do you mean TF: Animated? I have the 60 sec unused one of that (via TFW2005), cut back to 30 for the series. AFAIK, this is the only/longest opening for Energon. If anyone knows otherwise, LMK and I'll try and track it down.

    I get this question all the time, along with "what's the name of this song?" as if it's an actual 3-4 min song/single. Sort of like asking what album "Two All Beef Patties" can be found on. Maybe a TV themes compilation cassette from a gas station?

  • @AlphaofEltar It's true though. Used to be that opening themes could run 60, even as much as 90 seconds in extreme cases. But then the rules changed, and they allowed a higher ratio of ad-time vs program-time, so the networks cut show running times to fit in more $-earning ads, and producers trimmed down openings to get back some time for the show itself that had been lost to the ads. 30 seconds became typical, but some shows don't even do that, just a title card like TF: Prime.

  • WOW Cool!

  • Energon = Best Transformers series.

  • This tune is good, but I think Cybertron theme tune is better.

  • Yeah, I remember this. I was the only girl who wanted to watch this XD

  • @Hasegawaa You weren't the only girl xD! At least I wan't the only girl that watched these awesome cartoons :3!

  • @autobee23 I meant 'round here is was only girl who watched this but whatever :-D

    Nowdays when you say Tranformers, people can only think of those newest movies D:

  • @Hasegawaa  i know D:! Its such a shmae :|!

  • @autobee23 It is D:

  • wowo thats real anime ROCK!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POST IT**-**

    5*****

  • First time I ever seens a car do a powerlink with a fire engine. No seriously I've seen the theme song a million times, but now it accures to me that that's not even possible.

  • 0:12 this tune is awesome

  • optimusprime23able:

    I used to like this show,but now I realize that it sucks because of so many things.

    1.Ironhide isn`t tough and he doesn`t sound tough

    2.Prime`s super mode is lame

    3.We get Cyclonus back and he`s even more annoying.

    4.Kicker is the worst human character in TF history

  • @optimusprime23able i'll counter that with

    1 its not g1 ironhide

    2 wich super mode he had 3

    3 he does get reformatted

    4 atleast kicker actualy did something

  • It isn't horrible like TFWiki says.

  • these transformers remind me of those power ranger zords that can ''combine'' together lmao

  • awesome

  • There's no disguising it, this is fucking shit.

  • God I hated the unicron trilogy. Still, the theme songs were pretty good.

  • kickass

  • ENERGON WAS THE BEST!

  • G1,G2 and Armada were dbest series because they actualy put emotion in many charachters, Cybertron and Energon sucks and Energon theme fails to Armada theme.

  • THE NOSTALGIA!

  • this is my favourite and my best transformer serie i ever watch.

  • Epic... I love Inferno sooo much in this series, made me feel sad when he turned bad/died

  • This is better than the Japanese version.

  • I would like to see G1 like this.

  • Probably the worst Transformers show made so far but it at least gave us some pretty awesome toys.

  • Sounds like disco music

  • i love the autobots especially hotshot hes been my favorite ever since i was growing up.

  • i wish that they would start showing G1 again on tv ´´sigh´´

  • @justmymage THEY DO!!! (well kida!) they show it on kiks (of what ever it is) at about 10 o'clock! (why so late i do not know! 0_o)

  • omg had this on at full blast on my headphones jesus it nearley bloo my head off

  • one of my favorite series

  • what an awsome dialog!

    transformers,more than meets the eye

    transformers,more than meets the eye

    robits in discuise!

    end...

  • @ElitaOne100 The armada theme was so much better. Transformers *Epic guitar solo* Transformers *Epic guitar solo again* Transformers *Awesome guitar solo* end.

  • @ElitaOne100 G1's dialogue is better, you should go check it out unless you're being sarcastic.

    Autobots wage their battles to destroy the evil forces of....the Decepticons!

  • armada was awesome especially the mini-cons energon just made it better because along with the mini-cons you can use energon stars beast wars wasnt that great but cybertron fixed that with vector prime and the cyber planet keys and now we have a modern version transformers animated though i admit the voices are off (like in all the other seasons optimus sounded the same) but transformers animated is the best yet! (next 2 the movies) so for all that hate energon season realize that this is great!

  • @omegaprim First off I respect your opinion but Energon was a terrible series With a hopeful strong beginning Energon simply lost it's spark after 20 episodes and then melting into a molten scrap pile. The characters were weak and the plotting were just as lame. First off D's bring back Unicron ok then the A's destroy him, then Unicron reforms A's destroy him again this becomes a reoccurring theme throughout the series yawn boring. Also why transform when the cars fly,

  • nothing agsinst fans of energon btu it was one the wrost for me like best machines i could never get into energon ironhides voice annoyed me and cyclonus laughing everyd amns econd annoyed me(dont get me on snowcat) for em the bets series was G1(seasons and 2 didnt like it after the movie)beast wars and animated not that the unicron trilogy was all bad but it wasnt as good as the others in my opinion im sure other people have different opinions too

  • Beast wars and Machines suck. Armada is my fave. Good story, well constructed charcters. I never saw g1 but i've heard even veterans love Armada

  • i like armada its great ill say that much but energon ruined it in my opinion hot shot for instance easily my fave in armada energon ruined him i liek the mini-con power up gimmick int he aramda franchise and such megs and starscream ina rmada look awesoem ina rmada the porgram just doesnt catch ema s good btu as a franchise i liekd most of it

  • did anyone catch the drifting plane lol

  • @frostyalex89

    what r u talknig about?

  • Jetfire drifted around the corner.

  • @RathalosAvenger4Ever there is vectorprime drifting how can u not miss that little thing

  • Jetfire.

  • @frostyalex89 Jetfire

  • @frostyalex89

    besides, wut in the world wou;d Vector Prime being doing here, in the energon anime? o_O

  • @MMZ4321 i really dont know sometimes i get my transformers mix up

  • you need grammar it should be "Did you know of an invention called grammar''LOL

  • I was talking to the idiot with the smart-alec comment.

  • This Theme sounds Like a remix.

  • This remix is damn good too. Not as good as the original though.

  • @Sonicandcalvinfan20 ...of G1

  • the opening is great,,,awesome music

    and i agree with you energon is the best transformes versions ever.

  • lol, in another video comments, I just saw someone said, transformers victory is the best.

  • @angelsmoonful yeah but the cg ruined the show itself.

  • @angelsmoonful G1 Still has and will kick EVERY version of Transformers period! Including those Micheal Bay pieces fo crap they call movies...

  • @angelsmoonful its so good i bought the whole box set! the new one SUCKS ASS!!!

  • @angelsmoonful COMMENT VOTED DOWN. How dare you say this weird series is better than Transformers G1, RID AND Beast Wars?? Are you blind? Don't disrespect the classics.

  • Armada was way better but Energon was better then Cybertron buuuuut G1 was better then any of them.... =-P

  • energon is my favorite

  • mine too

  • same here

  • It's good to see the Armada folks again, but the Armada story was handled better. (And Cybertron needs more love. Red Alert returns, there's Override and Vector Prime, Starscream practically becomes a god and sticks it to Autobots *and* Decepticons as G1 and TFA Screamer could only dream of doing. And of course another season of David Kaye as Megs, yesssss.)

  • i like how they've tried to take the old names from g1 yh and i agree the armada decepticons episode was good tidal wave is awesome

  • Yeah but cyclonus' laugh was freaking annoying like every five seconds. Come on

  • this one was alryt armanda is bettter the ending was epic i like this op and next sits on the last one? cybertron...

  • this was the first transformers i saw but i remember nothing. Cybertron i saw next and it had sooo many flaws

  • Years ago this was the first serie that I knew so this serie made place in my heart,I know it's 3D animated,but Transformers:Cyrbertron is "too 3D"

  • This is good, but Armada is soooo better!
