Idk what´s going on with Mexico's Prime video, Earthspark episode 17-18 is listed but is stil not available to watch, the last batch of episodes are all available now, but that one is still unwatchable. Also every episode from the last batch is listed twice with only one available to watch.

Anyway, from 2 ep, translation is still awkward, with many words lacking agreement with the noun or subject they're referring to, and there's cases of being too literal like Robby calling the Dinobots the "biggest and baddest" being translated as "los más grandes y malos", but here malo (bad) doesn't mean baddass and comes across as meaning evil.

They still call Jawbreaker "JB" but instead of pronouncing the letters with their Spanish name, they pronounce them in English (jota be > yei bi), which does sound better as, again, calling someone by their initials is not something we do much in Spanish.

Optimus pronounces his old name Orion with Spanish phonetics, (he says it like Orion not Orión), which Iike because that's how I read it and I dislike the English pronounciation, which TFP did use (orayon).

Mandroid and Croft speak to each other in usted. Also ngl, I already thought Croft was hot but even more so in Spanish, she sounds so mean <3

Earthspark rambles part 2

I mean, on one hand, I really love what they're doing with Megatron's character. On the other, I feel like for being the backstory episode. They didn't give us enough backstory. "Good intentions can turn bad" but how????? "I get why [the war] started" well I don't. Like yeah it was a freedom fight kind of thing, but not explaining how it got to this kinda missed the point of pointing that Megatron fucked up. At least the line "once it became Decepticons vs Autobots" implies that it didn't start this way and we can avoid only the Decepticons being revolutionaries, but how hard it is to say that?

I feel like the show doesn't want to be too direct and tell-y on the exposition, but Megs is literally exposing the children to the past. How hard is it to go "Yeah, I wanted to rise against opression and the Decepticons and Autobots used to be one, but I kinda went mad with power and decided tyranny was good if I did it. Also, I was all for killing other races for our gain, which Optimus didn't like". Or anything. What actually happened. It's annoying because the audience-surrogate characters do apparently know what happened, so I don't have hopes we'll get more detail. And honestly given how the fandom gets, I would like a clear backstory

I do really like Megatron's realization that his war is only getting his people killed and that if he cared about them, he would try to stop it. Would love to know more on how it actually went down, but the implication that Do showed compassion to Decepticons making Megatron realize that he's being ruthless and using them as cannon fodder is good. Especially when the other key trait in this Megatron is that he actually sees humans as people. So a human reminding him of the value of his Decepticon's lives explains why he would suddenly start valuing human life as well. And it's also nice to see that he apparently overestimated the control he had over his Decepticons.

Also, I'm still not sure if destroying the space bridge was a good idea. I get they wanted to avoid the army razing Earth, but the implication that it risked getting everyone on Cybertron killed uuuuuh, Optimus wtf? Am I understanding this right?

Thrash was fantastic on this episode tho.

Shockwave.... good....

Bee fighting at the beginning of ep 17 was hot, ok? Don't @ me

A freaking underground battle ring where Cybertronians battle for energon?? Okay. That's extremely dark.

I love that Nightsade "Protector of the weak" Malto immediately became a vigilante. God, this nerd <3

I liked that Bee almost dies. He looked very pretty during the whole thing.

He isn't Tarantulas, but Mandroid is all fucked up and needs energon to live and that's good enough for me.

GHOST lady (what was her name?) controlling him with food is messed up. I talked about how OP is in a very thigh position where he needs to keep his people fed, but he can't go all alien colonizer and take it by force, so he needs to work with humans, who hate and fear them for bringing their war here, so yeah if GHOST is the only ally he has...... but yeah, that scene showcases the balance of power pretty well.

Followed by the Maltos showing a lot of symphaty for the Cons. I mean, I'm not surpised by this direction. We knew GHOST was the reall villian here and that neither Optimus nor Megatron consider putting all the Cons in jail an ideal solution and are trying to look for something better. But it seems to be going pretty smoothly, and they really aren't holding back with GHOST being evil. Which I think is great.

WHERE IS OPTIMUS??? I WANT TO SEE MY BLORBO

Um, I had more to say, but I'm tired and can't remember. Anyway, Earthspark good.
