28[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/optimusg1.jpg]]
29 [[caption-width-right:350:"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings"]]
30
31Optimus Prime is the leader of the Autobots. He is wise, intelligent, and willing to give his life to save those in need of help. After finally being unthawed from being frozen for centuries, he resumes his fight against the Decepticons and Megatron's tyranny. Optimus has also become a mentor to the students, especially Izuku.
32----
33* ActorAllusion: Unsurprisingly his holomatter avatar is based on a younger Creator/PeterCullen.
34* AllLovingHero: It wouldn't be Optimus Prime if he wasn't this. He tries to talk and reason with his enemies before attacking them and only decides to kill Shatter and Dropkick as leaving them alive would result in Earth being attacked by a Decepticon invasion.
35* ArchEnemy: To Megatron.
36* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Optimus is very observant.
37** He was able to notice the similarities between Izuku and All Might's Quirks and correctly deduced that they were the same.
38** During Kaida's match against Bakugo, he was also able to tell that the girl was jolted out of her stupor after re-experiencing a past memory.
39* BaritoneOfStrength: Optimus possesses a deep voice that shows his leadership of the Autobots; even through his holoform, the students of 1-A were left in awe of his voice.
40* BigBadassRig: As always, his alt mode is a trailer truck, in this case, a flat-nosed Freightliner.
41* BigDamnHeroes:
42** When Bumblebee and Windblade are having trouble with Shatter and Dropkick, Optimus shows up via Groundbridge to give his fellow Autobots a helping hand.
43** He does this again when the Nomus are attacking Hosu City.
44* BigGood: He's the leader of the Autobots and fights for the freedom of all sentient beings.
45* BladeBelowTheShoulder: Optimus's signature weapon is his energon axe which comes out of his hand.
46* CompositeCharacter: This version of Optimus Prime has his design from G1, and is a former friend of Megatron like he was in the [[WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime Aligned continuity]] due to their differing views of overcoming the Functionism caste system in the ''[[ComicBook/TheTransformersIDW Transformers IDW comics]]''. He also has a more casual sense of humor from the early seasons of the Sunbow cartoon.
47* EasilyForgiven:
48** He immediately forgives the agents of Sector Seven when they reveal they were manipulated by the Decepticons into helping them.
49** He easily forgives Mina when she confesses to being reckless.
50* AFatherToHisMen: Optimus is shown to treat all his comrades fairly and has become a father figure to them as well as the students.
51* {{Foil}}: To All Might. Both Optimus and All Might are TheParagon in their worlds (Cybertron and Earth, respectively) and share the same red and blue color scheme. They are also a mentor to Izuku and have a power that can be passed down (One For All for All Might and the Matrix of Leadership for Optimus). However, while All Might is a boisterous hero; Optimus is more of TheStoic. Also, All Might is close to retiring due to an injury while Optimus is still in his '''''Prime''''', pun intended.
52* GoodCounterpart: To Megatron. Both are the leaders of opposing Cybertronian factions (Autobots and Decepticons, respectively) who wish to remove Cybertron's caste system. However, while Optimus wants to create a peaceful future where Cybertronians can live with their freedom; Megatron's idea of a peaceful future is through his tyranny.
53* HeterosexualLifePartners: With his Mini-Con partner, Roller.
54* HumbleHero: For all his great deeds and accomplishments, Optimus is a very humble bot who doesn't care about fame and only wishes to protect the innocent.
55* LargeAndInCharge: He's acknowledged as the tallest Autobot seen so far (before Jetfire) and clearly the leader.
56* LegacyHero: He wields the Matrix of Leadership, an ancient Cybertronian relic passed down from the previous leaders of the Autobots.
57* TheMentor: To Izuku.
58* NotSoAboveItAll: He was seen cheering wildly for Izuku during the early portion of the Sports Festival.
59* NotSoDifferentRemark: He notes how One For All's mechanisms are similar to the Matrix of Leadership.
60* PapaWolf: Optimus cares deeply about his Autobots and comrades which made him angry when the Decepticons [[spoiler:kidnapped Bumblebee and Midnight]].
61* PrimaryColorChampion: His signature red, blue, and white paint job, which is even described as looking patriotic.
62* RealNameAsAnAlias: When using his holomatter projection he goes by his original name of "Orion Pax".
63* SecretKeeper:
64** He finds out about the truth of One For All and reluctantly keeps it a secret on behalf of Izuku's insistence.
65** He learns about Shoto's [[AbusiveParents abusive]] and [[TrainingFromHell tragic upbringing]] when he overhears him talking about it to Izuku and keeps it a secret for Shoto's sake and to avoid any further troubles with Endeavor.
66* SpottingTheThread: He is able to pick up on the similarities between Izuku and All Might's Quirk after witnessing it in action just once. He also had insight from the Matrix of Leadership.
67* TheStoic: Optimus is always focused and rarely loses his cool. [[NotSoAboveItAll Unless, of course, it involves Izuku]].
68* WeaponSpecialization: Optimus' signature Ion Cannon and his energon battle axe.

662* BlueIsHeroic: She's mostly colored blue and she's a pretty nice and heroic person.

664* FreezeRay: She has a freezing cannon in order to trap and preserve organic beings.
665* HarmlessFreezing: Which is why Brainstorm chose her in order to capture the bug creature that stowed inside Kimia.

677* BloodKnight: He's a bot who's always pretty eager for a fight, even against a dangerous and unknown enemy.

692* AliensSpeakingEnglish: She speaks with an Indian accent.
693* {{Expy}}: She's clearly an analogue of Symmetra from ''Overwatch''.
694* HoverMecha: Since she doesn't have legs, she moves around with a hovering platform, although she turns to her alt mode for fast travel.
695* ThePerfectionist: She's openly called one, and she doesn't deny it, saying she tries her hardest to achieve perfection in her research.

723* LeaderFormsTheHead: Railspike is the leader and he makes up the arms, head and upper torso of Rail Racer.

847* AlwaysSecondBest: Despite how strong he was as a gladiator, he was never able to best Megatron in combat.
848* BewareTheNiceOnes: It's mentioned outside of combat Grimlock is surprisingly nice, but on the battlefield, he's an utter beast.
