![]() If you’re into 2000s superhero cartoons, this show is for you. So, if you enjoy it, there are two more series that stem off of this one you should watch. This is also the first series in the Transformers Unicron Trilogy. I may also be a little biased because this was the first Transformers show I ever saw. Personally, I believe it has a good story and has a great bunch of characters, but it’s definitely made for kids like many of the Transformers cartoons are. It’s full of action and redemption arcs, but the voice acting can be a bit cheesy and the sound effects are lacking. ![]() Although it came out in 2002, it is visually reminiscent of some 90s cartoon and anime styles. Like Transformers: Victory, if you’re a 90s kid you’ll probably appreciate this one. There are some dubbed episodes out there but the official English dub is hilariously bad and there is a much better fan dub but it doesn’t cover all the episodes. You’ll also want to watch this subbed if you don’t understand Japanese. You also don’t need to watch the other cartoons in the G1 series to understand this one. This cartoon also reminds me of the original Gundam series so if you enjoyed that anime you’ll probably enjoy this cartoon. If you’re into 90s action cartoons or anime, you’ll enjoy this show. Transformers: Victory, created in 1989, is the third Japanese-exclusive Transformers series and is the final cartoon that completes the G1 series. Not to worry though, if you don’t want to watch a cartoon, there’s also the Transformers: Generation 1 comic series which will be listed later in this article. If you’re interested in starting from the beginning and want to see where Transformers came from, this is where you should start. With its continuity errors and logic gymnastics, it’s hard to take this show seriously sometimes but that’s where the fun is at. You may also find this cartoon entertaining for its simplicity but also its highlight in meme culture. If you’re into 80s cartoons, this should be easy going for you. This series focuses on the civil war between the Autobot and Decepticon factions on Earth. This is where it all started in 1984 after the line of Hasbro toys. Transformers TV Shows Transformers: Generation 1įirst and foremost is Transformers: Generation 1 (G1). There are other forms of media, such as books and video games, but my personal knowledge doesn’t extend to these areas so I can’t really recommend them. As such, this article is split into two main sections: television shows/movies and then comics. However, if you’re interested in more complexity, and find the tv shows too childish, the comics are much more satisfying. ![]() The comics aren’t as simple as this and can be rather confusing if you jump into them at a random point. Usually, the tv shows constitute their own continuity, so episode one starts you off fresh and new and doesn’t expect you to have much knowledge of previous events. The television shows and movies are a bit easier to get into because they often don’t require you to know much of what has happened in the rest of the Transformers universe. Wherever you’re starting, if you’re interested in traveling further down the rabbit hole that is the Transformers universe, you’re in luck because with so much content, there’s something out there for everyone. ![]() You may be entirely new to the Transformers world or have some experience with it through the more popular big-screen media such as the Transformers movies from Michael Bay. So, where does one start in this long and complex franchise? ![]() Even worse, many of these continuities overlap and/or contradict each other but are all still considered canon despite this. With about 20 continuities to contend with, it can certainly be hard to figure out where to start for new fans. Beginning with the Transformers: Generation 1 television show in 1984 and evolved into a plethora of media including movies, comics, and books, Transformers has expanded into a complex universe that can be quite intimidating to approach. Transformers has been around for 35 years. ![]()
