So, I want to watch a new transformers cartoon. Should I watch Prime or Animated?
>>
>>78347224
both are good, but I'm partial to animated
>>
>>78347224
Animated. Prime starts out decent but it turns to trash by the end of season 2 and you'll feel extremely underwhelmed by the end.
>>
Animated. I couldn't get into Prime, and most of the time I don't care for Transformers from a fictional standpoint, but Animated had a good balance. Also, I enjoyed the human villains as well as the Transformer based ones, made it feel like it was Detroit instead of 'what if Cybertron were actually just quarries'.
>>
>>78347224
Prime if you want more of a serious transformers
Animated if you want more of a fun transformers
>>
>>78347224
Watch Robots in Disguise 2015 you dummy.
>>
For the love of God man, watch Animated.
>>
>>78347224
Rescue Bots.

Fuck you for introducing me to this show /co/. I can't stop watching it.
>>
Animated, if only for Roadbuster.

In all seriousness though, of the 2 imo it has the better character development and story arcs.

Robots in disguise 2015 don't take place after Prime?
>>
I like Prime.
>>
>>78348043
Season 4 when?
>>
Animated.

Prime is terrible all around.
>>
Why not both?
>>
Animated. Better characters, overall better story and more fun (if you prefer a more comedic take over serious business).
>>
Prime. The action has never been better and the voices are godly.
>>
>>78347224
I never one felt bored while watching Animated, but yo should keep in mind the animation quality is very hit-and-miss after the pilot.

They clearly worked on a low-ass budget.
>>
>>78349190
But every episode's writing is really really bad for at least 18 of those 22 minutes.
>>
>>78354454
Honestly, the action isn't that great either. They always try to jam too much into one fight. First let's shoot at each other, now let's swordfight, now fisticuffs! Occasionally you get something creative like Optimus using his wheels on his legs to grind on Megatron's face, but those moments are far and few in between.
>>
>>78347224
Animated. Prime is nothing happening but the Asian girl being an annoying fuck.
>>
>>78347455
If by "serious" you mean "dull".

I'm all for drama and intensity, but Prime had none. It wasn't serious because it had anything Animated didn't; it just had less of the light stuff. No more weight or depth to compensate.

Strongarm was the only thing keeping me attached to the RID15 series...

Then I realized I could just buy the toy and fap to this.

This pretty much. I enjoy both shows, Animated (obviously) has a more fun vibe as far as TF shit goes, Prime is much more dramatic
>>
Both have their ups and downs, but they are lit'rully heads and tails above the dreck put out in the comics.
>>
>>78347317

But the movie finale was fucking great. By far the best Prime death since the original movie.

And then fucking RiD2k15 has to go and unmake his sacrifice because god fuck forbid a Prime ever stays dead in any continuity.
>>
>>78357314
Not that guy, but while I'll agree Prime's death is great, the movie as a whole not so much...third season IMO was a bit of a let down considering like it seemed like there was going to be some huge storyline with the Predacons and we didn't get that

Although I'm not as dramatic as some in this fandom who think it's so bad it's worth having a heart attack over
>>
skip animated, there's not enough porn of Sari you will be blueballed and angry.
>>
>>78357327

It wasn't that bad, just rushed and jumped from predacons to earth being cyberformed again without any break. But that's more of the fault of Hasbro or whoever pulling the plug on the show, as it was said the team behind it wanted to do at least 5 seasons and THEN a movie

Watch Robots In Disguise 2001

TF Prime is on right now, it's the zombie episode. This one was fun

Watch the both of them.

They both have things I love and hated about them.
>>
Watch Prime. Animated is fucking boring
>>
>>78358297
this is the only correct answer.

watch them both, and make your own decision on how you feel about them.
I personally don't like Animated that much, and would rather watch the Unicron Trilogy-series again than watching it again.

I will never understand you guys who enjoy the anime TF stuff

>I will never understand you guys who enjoy the anime TF stuff
I never said I enjoyed watching the Unicron Trilogy - it's awful, with only a small handful of good moments. I DID say I would rather watch THAT again instead of re-watching TF:Animated.

You follow me there, champ?
>>
>>78347224
i personally like both and i am more partial to prime but i think overall animated is much more popular.

Both are pretty good. Prime does have it's issues with writing after season 2, but it still great. Animated is fun as hell. Robots in Disguise is ok.
>>
>>78347224
Watch Animated, the other is just Prime.
>>
>>78348043
>>78348702
maybe next year?
it's been a while since they announced the fourth season
>it still amuses me that the other shows got cancelled but Rescue Bots which doesn't even have Decepticons still goes on
>>
Animated proved that it's somehow possible to have WORSE animation than the original
