The official Netflix Japan YouTube account have uploaded a new War For Cybertron promotional clip for the Japanese audience.
The new video shows some new scenes and character portraits and it let us appreciate the Japanese dub of the series. A different approach compared to the English dub for sure, but we are sure many fans will like the epic and strong voices chosen for the show.
Talking about the Japanese dub, The River website have revealed the main voice actors (or seiyuus) cast for the series. Some famous professionals involved:
- Optimus Prime – Tessho Genda – The original G1 Convoy/Optimus Prime voice in Japan.
- Bumblebee – Ryohei Kimura – Well-known for Japanese Transformers fans as Bumblebee’s voice in Transformers Adventures (RID 2015) and the Bumblebee movie.
- Elita 1 – Kikuko Inoue – Veteran and famous voice actress. The original voice of Kasumi Tendo from Ranma 1/2 and Belldandy from Oh! My Goddess. She dubbed Zizza in Transformers Adventure (RID2015).
- Megatron – Houchou Otsuka – Another veteran seiyuu and the memorable voice of Jiraiya in Naruto. He has voiced many Transformers characters in the Japanese G1 shows like Ultra Magnus, Ranger (Masterforce) and Guyhawk (Victory) among others.
- Shockwave – Chafurin – Voice of Cicadacon in Beast Wars and Octopunch in Transformers Adventure.
- Jetfire -Kenji Nomura – Jetfire’s voice in Revenge Of The Fallen is coming back for War For Cybertron.
- Ultra Magnus – Kazuhiko Inoue – The voice of Micronus in Transformers Adventure (RID 2015) now comes as the big and tall Autobot warrior.
- Starscream – Setsuji Satou – He voiced several characters from the live-action movies (like Mohawk) and Transformers adventures.

Megatron is pretty good, while Optimus Prime and Bumblebee are alright, in my opinion.
If you haven't tried Netflix before, you could sign up for a free 1 week trail, and then watch all six episodes. It only takes roughly 2 hours to watch the entire show.

For those who watched it, how are the Prime, Bumblebee and Megatron Voices? I don't have Netflix so I can't watch it. Wondering if it's worth a month sub.

I barely went on TFW today, but still received a minor spoiler. I really wanted to spend the whole day watching it but it's only 2 hours long. still, a binge is a binge.
Do we have any news on Netflix ER release date?

And here I though a journalists job was to inform the public without prejudice.
Fenrys
Agreed, think I'm gonna unwatch all the show threads till thursday, can't wait to binge it
xd Accrocate
man, barely anybody has watched it but spoilers are flying everywhere. you guys might want to stay off any Siege related discussions
Fenrys
Personally, I can't wait to watch it. I've said all along that I think it'll at least be decent/watchable and that all of peoples criticisms were jumping the gun without first seeing a finished product. It's part of why I wish companies would stop putting out trailers and teases, they are rarely representative of a finished product
Rob
Agreed, I think a better way to look at is on average is it getting good reviews and (at least so far) it is.
Fenrys
And lots of passable content gets bad reviews
Rob
Outstanding. I was getting worried about that, but to see first reviews being positive I am excited.
One review I would agree with you, but a collection of reviews begins to indicate a level of good quality in what is arguably a subjective thing.
Let’s keep the chewing at the edges “agenda” talk as a stand in for politics to a zero. Lest this forum becomes a unwanted hotbed of political discussion as opposed to a refuge from such things .
Robbot
Youre my hero lol.
