TRANSFORMERS VICTORY Opening 「HIGH QUALITY」

The opening of TRANSFORMERS VICTORY in high quality, the show that was the "anime meets transformers" never broadcasted in the US but aired in latin america.

[@yungshuro9556]

tfw feeling nostalgic for an era I didn't grow up in

[@demi-fiendoftime3825]

Dito

[@colinmasterson666]

Amen to that!

[@ZetaVec]

I didn’t grow up during the era either but it’s nostalgic for me since my dad showed this show to me at a very young age

[@acatisfinetoo6921]

I did grow in that era, shit was awesome, it was mostly Sci Fi, mecha anime, cause the 2000 was near and everyone was expecting a HUGE leap on technology.

[@FreemanFDC]

grew up on those shows, was so hyped back then, G1 series and others, masterforce, beastwars and so on

[@OptimusPrime-xk7vo]

OK THIS IS THE BEST JAPANESE TRANSFORMERS SHOW

[@ElyeMaimo-q1c]

Yes fucking sir

[@RomulusProffitt]

Agreed

[@MonsieurMaouji]

Easily. And I like a lot of the other ones too.

[@TheSynthPunk]

Would really love to see Star Saber anywhere, he's such an awesome design. Too bad they seem to be giving him the shaft even in IDW-verse.

[@Dynaman21]

IDW is done as a company, and their Transformers comics turning into really bad fanfic continuations seem to have hurt it. Of course Dreamwave wasn’t much better but it seemed to want to do takes on the Japanese shows before Pat Lee ran off with all the money. Seeing them trying to reconcile Optimus Prime proper with Masterforce would have been a lot preferable to Revolution.

[@BryonYoungblood]

Yeah. Star Saber and Deathsaurus/Deszaras would be fun to see done well in other Transformers media. I know I've had a Transformers idea where the two of them are prominent commanders in the Autobot and Decepticon militaries, and naturally keeping them as rivals.

[@satrianugraha3987]

IDW turned star saber into a religious fanatic

[@shako4907]

@@ZackarySchejbalCODBO2RGM2 Raiden has the problem of having its members having Japanese names, although they could give them good and new names I guess

[@fivenightsatmimikus7508]

Fun Fact: this is one of the best songs in transformers history. It goes on the shelf with the Beast Wars theme, Prime theme, and Animated japanese theme. Fun Fact 2: Death Saurus (heck yeah) has a gun THAT EATS METAL. And he actually fires it at someone. He also commited homicide on the Autobots. Also HELL YEAH

[@StrikeFreedomEd]

what makes this song awesome 1:it show the most awesomest non-optimus prime autobot leader 2:it was a great series 3:it 'splain awesome

[@robbykurogane7657]

i agree.. , until now it gives me spine chilling moments when i hear 6 Combiner team .. in japanese " Gattai !! LIO-KAIZAH !! "

[@cyberman1880]

4: It has awesome animation 5: It has a great theme song

[@CeltyOfficial]

Used to watch Transformers and Voltron as a kid and this particular song from the Victory OPening stuck in my head ever since. Absolute killer of an earworm! The Nostalgia is just...legendary!

[@turkeygrump]

I love Victory. I have fond memories of watching the series on an import DVD in the summer of 2008.

[@mosthated.e.2422]

This been stuck in my head for a while

[@chheinrich8486]

the sadest diffrence between the g1 american cartoon and anime is that the anime never used the classic transforming soundeffect

[@ImaanTheHeavenly]

But s4 opening and this can't decide which is better

[@alchemolozano176]

Best opening theme ever!!! I get pump up every time they play Star Saber's theme every time he fights the Decepticons.

[@Navek15]

I would love to watch a show were Star Saber is Optimus Prime's apprentice.

[@themarvelfan3227]

That would be great

Not yet 40, but almost there

[@Henry.P]

I remember living in the Dominican Republic in 1992 as a kid and this was the version I remember watching in spanish. This intro brought back so many memories. The kids would sing this exact song.

[@djdeka]

me as well 😁 best TF series ever

[@UltraGalaxyify]

More than 20 years later, and I still love this series.

[@kluangh1tam]

Best OP of Transformer series. So catchy my brother and I sing along with it when we were kids every Sunday morning it went on air.

[@fahmiamri]

Bring back memories. Japan is levels when it comes to anime. Crazy good

If Haslab gets funded, Star Saber will FINALLY have a new toy!

Update: Star Saber is coming to the west!

[@gabrielchee8470]

Lets say go

[@chrishill9197]

I can't believe how many bad reviews there are of this series on IMDB! I really like this Transformers series! They have described this series as being "the very first series that seriously managed to put me asleep", "just plain boring" and the "worst transformers series ever made...so far", which is ABSOLUTELY BLOODY HARSH, SUCH AN OVERSTATEMENT and it describes exactly how I feel about Disney's The Little Mermaid because it's such a s*** film!!!! If you think that this a bad show, then you are an idiot and I totally DISAGREE WITH YOU!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST TRANSFORMERS SERIES EVER MADE!!!!!! Btw, the only reason why I am comparing this fantastic series to The Little Mermaid is because they both came out in 1989!!

[@besnikzogaj9887]

Chris Hill true!

[@cliff1634]

Why you gotta trash Little Mermaid

[@TheTrueBro]

This series (Victory) gets a bad rep because, unlike most of Transformers series, it's very unidimensional, linear and Starsaber is a Gary Stu (too damn perfect, he almost never struggles, dull personality). Sure, the animation is good but it's hard to follow a series when the main char has very little growth and the rest of the cast is too dependent on him.

[@GlitchanBlack]

@@TheTrueBro I mean, Star Saber's gotta set a good example to his kid, what can I say? Also, if you want unidimensional and linear, Transformers: Cybertron exists.

[@StarSaber-dh1wb]

Came here after the funding success!!! 🎊🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳

[@kevsil616]

Season 2-4 will always be my favorite of the American openings, but this one has them beat throwing nostalgia out the door

[@RhetoricalGamer]

Here after Victory Saber got fully back AND all 3 tiers!

[@officialFredDurstfanclub]

The horn section for mecha anime openings need a serious raise

[@PhantomDusclops92]

Fun thing: for some reason, the Galaxy Shuttle toy was released in Italy, even if the series didn't.

[@thedragonslayer7294]

“Let’s Say Go!”

[@badpope]

Japanese openings are so much better than their US counterparts. Way more personality, not just generic rock music.

[@iamxeracon]

For the most part that is true. However, there are a small handful of good English openings. Personally, I prefer the English version of "We Are" over the Japanese version.

[@zengram]

+iamxeracon the opening of yugioh is much better in terms of music over the japanese

[@iamxeracon]

henry geronimo Agreed. The only Japanese Yugioh ops I like are the "Season 0" one and the 1st GX one.

[@TokyoXtreme]

This series’ music is as generic as it gets though. The American theme is hundreds of times better and is absolutely iconic. Another instance in which an international version of an anime theme song is superior is “Mysterious Cities of Gold”, which has the most incredible electronic synth score, whereas the Japanese version is generic rock guitar that is immediately forgettable. Like John Williams vs. a junior high school student in first-year music.

[@dakotakidd79]

What about the original G1 season 1 intro

[@David315842]

In the Japanese continuity, it is part of G1. G1 didn't officially end, until the release of the Operation Combination toyline in 1992.

[@LudwinZarza]

I saw this anime about 30 years ago and today I still love it and the opening seems magnificent to me. One day I will have to starsaber in my collection.

[@Ikari2030]

[@ZZtheDark]

@@jumbogremlin9869 Gaogaigar has robots who can think on their own and I think Virtua-On does appear in SRW too. Iron Leaguer as well so its all game for SRW if they wanna add TF Victory in SRW. Rayearth was voiced by Star Saber in Magic Knight Rayearth and the Rayearth characters recently appeared in SRW T. Anything can happen. Optimus Prime's G1 seiyuu voiced Selece in Rayearth. Yeah,Optimus Prime as a blue dragon. I'll let that sink in.

[@11vag]

I grew up watching this series. It had an amazing dub in (albeit a bit weird) Latin American Spanish (it mixed American Spanish with European mannerisms). The animation and music was superb.

[@rookierook99]

It was dubbed. As far as I know, links to the dubs are non-existent, and you probably wouldn't want it anyway as the dubs are like the ones you'd find in a typical 70's Kung-Fu Movie. Furthermore, the names of the characters were different from the original Japanese audio (Jinrai for example, was addressed as Optimus Prime, despite the fact that it's not exactly the same Autobot).

[@haydenreviewscustomcombos]

So, in the series the Decepticons return. It’s kind of interesting that they’re both called Destron in the series as well as the Japanese dub of G1.

[@gabrielchee8470]

Not really. The only time they were absent was beast era IMO outside of G1 megs

[@haydenreviewscustomcombos]

Gabriel Chee technically that was G2 Megs, renamed it to Megastorm.

[@Arthus850]

Also there was the fact that Ginrai was a huma using a transector, and yet in the dub, even as a human, they called him Optimus Prime.

[@Progearspec]

Such a high energy transformers show with a catchy theme to boot.Last year i pick it up on dvd and watched it finally.Out of the three japanese transformers i've watched,i think victory is the best one.Such a shame it never aired in the u.s. Plus,now i wished i backed that crowd funding hasbro had last year for a star saber toy.

[@seminolePP]

shit this song even comes with a chorus....pretty hotblooded song

[@thediscipleswell1767]

Sure is gundam in here 😏

[@haydenreviewscustomcombos]

If the 2021 rider season had actually been Kamen Rider Victory, and also a sequel to V3, then you could basically just use this opening and swap out “transformers” for “Kamen Rider”.

[@十万色]

no

[@十万色]

every rider shows after drive sucks

Este opening resono en mi memoria por mas de una decada hasta que lo volvi a escuchar aqui

[@Highstar25]

not really, its a combination of 'tron' and 'destroy', i worked it out anyway, its because the japanese say it as 'de-su-tu-ro-n' so the lipsync wouldn't match up if they were destrons here, so the name had to be made longer

[@ZhekaTrololo]

snukastyle yeah

[@RXOBANSH33]

God Ginrai and Optimus Prime are not the same character.

[@namaewanein3630]

Star Saber is friend of God Ginrai, in case u don't know.

[@adamxue6096]

Victory Saber is half ginrai, since victory Leo is made from God Ginrai. Star Saber and Ginrai is a comrade, friend type relationship. God Ginrai took a direct hit for Star Saber, and he was deactivated, later according to his own wish, to be made into a warrior that can fight against destrons(Japan decepticons), and Wheeljack and Perceptor was appointed to the job and got him into Victory Leo. Ginrai however, serves as a vague connection to "Convoy" aka Japan Optimus prime. He uses a transtector, that was built for Optimus to be revived on. But even after the separation, it seems that their plan of reviving optimus failed, what they get is only God Ginrai. A bit sad, but... Can't be helped. Until all are one.

[@notimportant493]

I had a bootleg VHS of this show which had made its way from Japan some how and I ended up watching it as a 7 year old and being super confused about what was going on and why I couldnt understand a word they said but I loved the opening

[@David315842]

@pikminguy55 You must be refering to the Special Edition VHS release by Sony Wonder/Maverick which includes the first dubbed episode of the Headmasters anime. The asian english dubbed show had used the Victory opening sequence for all the episodes from Headsmasters to Super God Masterforce to Victory. :D
