YMMV / Transformers: Go!

Go To

  • Complete Monster: Dragotron is the leader of the Predacons who seeks to Take Over the World. After the Predacons split apart from the Decepitcons, Dragotron and his troops destroyed countless worlds before arriving to Earth. Posing a threat to both factions, the Autobots and Decepticons teamed up to seal them away in Mount Fuji. Upon being freed and restored to full power by his followers, Dragotron absorbed two children so he can use the power of their Legendiscs to cyberform the entire planet, wiping out all organic life in the process. When that failed, Dragotron then absorbed his fellow Predacons so he can become invincible and defeat the Autobots once and for all.
  • End of an Era: This is the final Transformers series created in Japan, with all future Japanese Transformers media being either dubbed Western cartoons or exclusively official manga pages.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Kenzan and Ganoh is not the only Police Car and Fire Truck in this universe.
  • Uncertain Audience: While Prime was subjected to a Gag Dub that made it Lighter and Softer, it'd still be a tough sell to believe this is a continuation with the radically different aesthetic and themes. What's more, the series's conception came from recouping losses from how hard Prime bombed in Japan, which means Takara made a sequel series to a failed project with a very radical visual shift and made it exclusive to direct-to-video, which aimed to a niche inside a niche. The result is that Go! is an oddball in the franchise's history mostly known as "the anime where Optimus turns into a bullet train and a dragon".
