Earthspark Spoilers - Blog Posts

Saw the earthspark trailer and I'm curious if they're gonna make a redemption with starscream and hashtag since they made it seem like they had a connection or at she's wants to see the good

Or if she'd be shocked, like she's trying to see the good but his being STARSCREAM and we know that goes and then the poor girl doesn't know what to do and UIUGGG

That be so sad and I kinda want that to see the direction that could go, if trying to do peace WITH deceptions is possible that they can try to at least like humanity, like they're trying as well

this megatron is just so sweet and gentle with the kids it absolutely. DESTROYS ME.

Am I the only one who can't physically fathom and very disappointed with the season 2 of earthsparks?

I hate it, and hate is a strong word, it literally just deleted the whole point of season 1 like what the heck?? Season 1 was good, amazing even! The animation was good, the writing, the storyline! And then they give us season 2 and it all falls down the drain.

The fighting scenes aren't as good as season one and the writing—god the writing is horribly done. It's like nobody in their writing team watched the season 1 and it's disappointing. I quite like earthspark and the messages it gives, especially in todays world. But season 2 was not it, they literally just did a 180 on what could gave been the best redemption arc we'll get and the possible dynamics that the viewer seems to love.

They turned the entire show into another black and white bs when it all started as gray. Have someone else be a villain this time like Tarn or the Quintossons. I was excited for the season 2 and waited very patiently for it cause I expected it will be as amazing as season 1. I was proven wrong and I'm very much disappointed.

In my eyes, season 2 is not cannon and I hope they get their crap together before they lose people who actually liked how the show started.

Binged the new Earthspark eps today!! I'm sobbing up a storm

hashtag believing starscream about how megatron abused him hashtag telling starscream it wasn't his fault that he was abused hashtag defending starscream from megatron starscream trying to pull hashtag free from the dweller starscream leading the dweller away from hashtag and telling her to get away (and doing these things after a whole scene earlier where he didn't try to help the other seekers get free from the dweller bc it would've endangered himself) starscream pulling hashtag up from the cave water starscream telling hashtag to remember to take care of herself literally how the fuck am I supposed to function

EARTHSPARK SPOILERS EYYYYY

I dunno why but like I'm so interested and a bit bugged out by episode 16 "Warzone",

I don't mean in a bad way but PLEASE HEAR ME OUT.

The flashback with the fight on the spacebridge felt like a bit lackluster to me. There are only so few bots and cons there that are fighting and those bots are the ones we have already seen on screen. I'm pretty sure there might be more to the story than meets the eye. If it's also because of budget then I guess it's fine as well.

Second the thing about Thrash saying stuff like how they are going to clean up the mess that Megatron and the others have done and the pressure of it,

I really love that though I wish they explore a bit more. I would like to see more of them hating to be put in a position like that. Additionally, it reminded me a bit of Steven Universe and her relationship with Rose Quartz/Pink Diamond.

Then there's Megatron calling Shockwave old friend👀👀👀. I am now very curious about their past or backstory. Like did he just call him old friend because they fought alongside each other for a long time or they were close friends before the war.

He sounded so sad when he said 'I am sorry old friend.'

Then this...

Hey, wait a minute...

This scene wasn't there on the first flashback. 🤔🤔🤔

At the start of the episode there is a flashback of the battle then a second flashback now being narrated by Megatron minutes later after the first flashback. Everything is the same but now with added scenes of Shockwave and that scene of Starscream jumping to get the Allspark into the spacebridge. Like they can't just put it there without being important to the overarching plot.

I dunno it just feels so suspicious to me. But maybe I'm wrong.

Also Shockwave seeing the memories of Thrash with being happy with his family is just like "Eww, LoWEr CLasS bEIngS😖😑" is just so funny to me. Like he's being an emo HAHAAHAH. That's not very logical of you Shockwave.

Overall I like it. I dunno why it felt lacking to me but I still like it. It's just that it feels like it has lose ends in the story but like I said maybe it's important in the later overarching plot.

All right guys, time for me to over-analyze Earthspark.

Okay I kept seeing people point out in Earthspark where Bumblebee making a joke about Soundwave being energon deprived and accidentally makes a cassette explode inside of him and they are just shocked that it's either so out of character or its dark humor is somewhat bad.

I get it but I think it's understandable why he would act this way. Bee is very likely born in the middle of the war and we all know that raising a kid in a damn war is not a good place for them. They are forced to be able to fight, adapt and mature immediately because their lives depend on it, not every time an older bot is around to help them. But the bots likely try their best to have a nice environment for them(especially that it was Optimus who mentored Bumblebee).

This would have an effect on them and one of them is they are likely to be more alert, serious, have problems socializing and maybe form a different kind of personality like, I dunno, dark humor perhaps.

In episode 3 when they are playing charades Bee said it was an 'injured deception' How do you proceed in this situation?' when clearly it was a chicken. It's obvious that he is using game night as a way to teach or train the Terrans or get closer to them(and I face-plamed at some of those scenes but still laughing) and we can see how that went through.

But what if Bee only acted this way because, again his entire life is focused in the war, he is under pressure. The Bots need to teach and prepare him for everything and now that there's no war it's hard for them to adjust just like Megatron said that 'the war is clearly over for everyone'.

That line hit me so hard.

Because it does not only apply to the Decepticons who willingly refuse to surrender but to everyone because it's not easy to just adjust in a new and more relaxed life when the entirety of your life is about fighting for your life and taking risks.

Not to mention the possible scars you've got along the way whether it's physical, mental or emotional scars. The habits and mindsets formed to survive in their war.

It's impossible for them to just, I dunno, settle down or throw that away.

I doubt that Bee is the only one affected by this.

In short

.

The war just screwed them all up.

Also we aren't even sure if the cassetticon lived or not. All it said was that it exploded when Soundwave tried to eject it. I know it must damn hurt (hungry and wounded that hurts💔) but who knows maybe they lived and Bee just didn't get the chance to finish his story because it's the wrong the time to tell that joke infront of kids too who are worried for Twitch and Thrash whom are likely energon deprived.

He probably tries to lighten the mood with some humor but we know he failed.

That's all I got and I think I might got some of it wrong but I can't remember. Feel free to correct me.

Edit: I forgot to put some things here like the assumed cassette who exploded is Rumble and like how some cope by making humor and such because I'm not good at English so thanks for the ones who commented in this.

This sounds like a stupid fic idea but I dunno also possible Earthspark spoilers(maybe?)

For some odd reason, my brain seemed to really like the idea of what if in Earthspark the backstory of like Megatron, Soundwave and Starscream is that they used to be really close friends before the war and during the war the friendship slowly breaks and completely shatters when the war ended or when Megatron decided to team-up with the Autobots.

Also like it would be cool like the Decepticons(just like TFP or IDW) were just victims of the caste system and had started out as an act of hope and freedom for a better life and became friends because of this but relationships crash and burn as the war started and in the end became divided and scattered. Meanwhile the Autobots just wanted to the Decepticons to, you know, keep them inline or minimize damage and in the end the Autobots changed their morals and became united in the end.

This could be the reason why Megatron doesn't want to see his Decepticons stuck in a jail or being mistreated. These are his comrades, his people. He knew their reasons for their actions.

Also I think in the episode where Megatron and Soundwave fought, he looks kind of a bit shocked that Soundwave considered him a traitor. And the fact that Sounders is just so feral to him, you know there's more ✨ drama ✨ to this and them being very close friends waaaaaaay before the war is definitely going to hurt soooo bad. Maybe it's because of this too perhaps Megatron has some hope that Soundwave could join him trying to make peace.

Now for Starscream... we don't know anything about him in Earthspark other than he cackled like mad for 5 seconds probably implying that he is still the scheming seeker that we know. Heck, I was kinda hoping that just like Megatron and Soundwave his personality is somewhat altered in this universe. (You know like Megs being close with a human and Sounds being feral and looks like having issues with his casseticons)

Who knows, for all we know Earthspark could shock us by making Starscream, just like Soundwave, wanted revenge to Megatron although with a lot more personal grudge that had brewed over the years they had together (these grudges probably formed during the war).

But honestly, anything works for me... BUT PLEASE I DON'T WANT STARSCREAM TO BE A PUNCHING BAG AGAIN. I mean they could use it as a plot device (?) like he would get so sick of it and proves to them that he is more than that and becomes the town's ✨ local menace ✨ just because he can.

Anyway that's about it. I know it sounds so far fetched but I want to get this out of my brain

i’m rewatching the mandroid fight and after the base goes howl’s moving castle these three arachnamechs find each other and fall together and the last thing they do before the camera cuts is grab hold of each other and i’m not ok???
