Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Transformers: The★Headmasters is an anime series which aired in 1987, continuing the story after the end of the third season of The Transformers and ignoring the events of "The Rebirth". The evil Decepticons, supposedly defeated at the end of G1, attack the Autobots' home planet of Cybertron, aided by new allies, the Headmasters. Just when things look their bleakest, a group of Autobot Headmasters suddenly appear to turn the tide. So of course also do the Decepticons.The show concerned the continuation of the war between Autobot and Decepticon, focusing on the Headmasters and, later, their Targetmaster allies. As time went on, most of the original characters were phased out to allow the new toys to take centre stage.The majority of the new characters were members of two subgroups of Transformer, who were fairly evenly split between the two main factions.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) Headmasters are a group of small Transformers who left Cybertron in the distant past to avoid the Great War. Settling on the planet Master, they built themselves larger bodies in order to survive. The small Headmaster units transform into larger heads which attach to the robot form of the larger Transtector. The Transtector itself transforms into a vehicle or an animal, which can then be piloted by the Headmaster. Targetmasters result from the fusion of standard-size Transformers with Headmaster-sized bots. The smaller bots transform into guns which can then be wielded by their partners. The Targetmasters' ability to select targets independently of their wielders allows the wielders to use two guns separately.After a three episode pilot during which Optimus Prime died yet again, the show settled back into the generally episodic format of its predecessor. Continuity was much stronger in Headmasters than in Generation 1, with the result that even though the majority of episodes are self-contained, they still have to be watched in the correct order. Unfortunately, long stretches of time spent with the characters standing around doing not very much, and the fight scenes seem to be present to pad out the episode and resemble more of an impromptu laser dance party than an actual fight.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })On the other hand, the animation was taken back by Toei, which resulted in a considerable improvement in quality. Animation and continuity errors were rarer, albeit still present on occasion.This show was somewhat darker than G1. Several episodes included on-screen deaths (mostly robots, but also some aliens encountered along the way), and the Autobots lost battles as often as they won. This all meant that Scorponok didn't suffer Villain Decay, and Galvatron regained a good deal of the threat he had lost in G1.The show received a hilariously bad English dub by Omni Productions in Hong Kong, which gained notoriety after being broadcast on StarTV in Singapore. While the dub was perfectly comprehensible, it did contain some "Blind Idiot" Translation, which spawned a few short-lived memes. If you were English, Mindwipe's hypnotism somehow became 'magic', proving that whoever translated the show didn't even read the title before they started. There was also no attempt to replicate the G1 voice actors in English despite the Japanese dub doing so, resulting in characters like Dummy!Blurr and Intellectual!Grimlock. And though the Japanese Galvatron still sounded suave and leaderly in Japanese (whether you understand Japanese or not) in English he sounded like somebody who kicks people in the balls for a living. The series has since received several fandubs that are much more professional-sounding.The first episode of the dub was included as a bonus on the DVD edition of the animated Transformers movie. DVDs containing both the dub and the original Japanese with subtitles were released in Australia and the U.K. in 2005, and both versions were shown in the UK on Anime Central in 2007. Shout! Factory released the series in the U.S. on July 5, five days after Transformers: Dark of the Moon opens. The dub was not included, due to Hasbro's apparent concerns about content and quality.Currently the fan group "Prime Productions" is working to create a proper dub of the series, with completely new voice overs and a new team of writers. Information on the project can be found on the group's YouTube page.Followed by Transformers: Super-God MasterforceThe Battle Beasts in the series ended up getting a Spiritual Successor called Beast Saga in 2012/2013 | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Sort of. On the one hand, characters die on screen, and the tone is at times somewhat grim or tragic. On the other hand, it also has a fair amount of light-hearted and silly comic relief, Daniel and Wheelie are prominent characters throughout the series, and overall it's evident that the series is still aimed at children. The fact that it can come off as Darker and Edgier at times can probably be attributed to cultural differences regarding shows aimed at kids. | |

Villain Ball | |
| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_1cc2ea8d | comment |
Villain Ball: Galvatron informed Sixshot about the Grand Galvatron project, which among many other things, it specifically requires Sixshot to be sacrificed for parts to use. Up till that point in time, Sixshot was actually one of Galvatron's most loyal and competent Decepticons, and Galvatron's decision to inform him in advance was so insanely stupid that it almost crosses over to funny. Any Decepticon with common sense will not be willingly sacrificed as a "reward" for their prior dedication. Informing them in advance about their impending sacrifice is tantamount to asking them to desert you in your time of need, and that is exactly what Sixshot did. | |

Good Is Not Dumb | |
| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_21ef4ccd | comment |
Good Is Not Dumb: In the original G1 episodes, it is often Soundwave and his cassettes that are doing the spying on behalf of the Decepticons and the Autobots never seemed to have any intel of their own, merely reacting to situations started by the Decepticons. In Transformers: Headmasters, the Autobots finally came up with the idea of planting a double agent Counterpunch among the ranks of the Decepticons, and Punch/Counterpunch actually did a relatively good job (For a kids' show) of feeding intel to Fortress Maximus on the Decepticons' key moves without getting caught. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: For a kids' show with full of nonsensical plot elements, occasionally an event makes total sense. If a planet is going to get blown up inevitably, acting like a hero to sacrifice yourself in a futile effort to stop it doesn't help at all. Running away and warning others of the planet's impending destruction is a better option. Telling your most loyal and competent subordinate that you plan to use his body parts to augment yourself into a planet-sized Transformer won't get him to abandon you in your time of need. No sir, it won't. Similarly, once Scorponok abandons Sixshot and orders him to attack Fortress Maximus on his own, and is promptly abandoned, Sixshot is very suspicious of his motives as immediately before, they had a violent argument, despite the fact that Scorponok is the emperor because Sixshot betrayed Galvatron, though he ultimately brushes it off as the emperor tries to claim he had no choice and could trust on Sixshot making it back. When Scorponok makes a clear assassination attempt on Sixshot's life, Sixshot immediately abandons the Decepticons. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The heroes win, of course, but driving the Decepticons from Earth just means that the Autobots will have to depart for a different battlefront elsewhere in the galaxy. So Daniel has to bid his friends a tearful farewell. Not to mention the fact that Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus are dead (though later material reveals that Optimus was rebuilt as Star Convoy, Ultra Magnus was also brought back, and Galvatron was freed from his icy prison and upgraded into Super Megatron). | |

Characterization Marches On | |
| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_479f9ad0 | comment |
Characterization Marches On: Sixshot had always been portrayed as a remorseless and ruthless Decepticon from the start. The late episodes of the series suddenly rewrote him with some traits of a Noble Demon. This apparently stuck with the fans such that subsequent series in Masterforce and Victory reused this formula of "sympathetic villain with honour" with the other Sixchanger Transformers. | |

Dubtitle: The subtitles on the "Shout! Factory" DVDs (the only ones available in the US) replace all of the characters' Japanese names with their English ones, or the nearest equivalent (Convoy becomes Optimus Prime, Fortress becomes Cerebros, etc.). They also occasionally try to work in Transformers-specific terms that hadn't actually been coined yet when the series was created (Soundwave and Blaster's Cassettes are called "Deployers," "scrap" is used in place of any sort of rough language, Transformers' lifes/hearts/souls are now "sparks"...). | |

Took a Level in Dumbass: Several, actually. Cyclonus and Scourge are inexplicably changed from genuinely menacing and formidable warriors into mentally-impaired Dirty Coward Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain comic reliefs who manage little more than cheap childish slapstick whenever they appear. The English Dub makes it even worse. Trypticon, previously portrayed as nigh-unstoppable to the average 'bot, gets taken out by frikken Wheelie tricking him into stepping on a suspension-bridge. | |

The Strategist | |
| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_73641290 | comment |
The Strategist: Galvatron shows some serious strategic skill when he embarks on a planet plundering expedition by having Sixshot pose as him using his powers, along with previous episodes where he tries to neutralize the Autobots through science rather than a head on fight. Scorponok in his first stint as leader forces the Autobots to keep focused on Earth until he decides to destroy Mars and when his weak spot is exposed, avoids fighting, preferring underhanded methods until he can flee. If he hadn't grasped the Villain Ball his plot would have worked. | |

Villain Decay: Trypticon, who was previously able to level the Ark, is here reduced to a common Mook, capable of being taken out by a rope bridge and gravity. Previously portrayed as formidable opponents of the Autobots, Cyclonus and Scourge were reduced to bumbling comic reliefs — trying to use a big rock to take out Rodimus Prime (Who was busy in a physical struggle with Galvatron), only to hit Galvatron in the face instead. | |

Back from the Dead | |
| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_8967e17f | comment |
Back from the Dead: A number of characters who should be dead just... appear. Hi, Prowl/Ironhide/Wheeljack! This is due to Japan not getting The Transformers: The Movie until 1989. The appearances are largely of the blink and you'll miss it cameo variety, so it's not too bad. Later Japanese fiction would establish the the Prowl and Wheeljack seen here are actually from another universe, and they replaced their deceased counterparts. Also notably Soundwave and Blaster, who kill each other in battle but are later rebuilt as Soundblaster and Twincast, respectively. They aren't much different from Soundwave and Blaster, aside from the fact that Soundblaster is black instead of blue, and Twincast is blue instead of red, as well as the fact their toys were retooled to now hold two cassettes each instead of one; the double tape door on Soundblaster was later reused on an American reissue of the original Soundwave toy in 2006. | |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: The hilarious Hong Kong dub, so beloved amongst comedy anime enthusiasts it was included in the 2008 DVD release as an audio option. This little bit from the Hong Kong dub: A simple example in the episode where Optimus Prime and Rodimus Prime team-up to take out the Decepticons: In Japan, Optimus Prime was called "Convoy" while Rodimus Prime was called "Rodimus Convoy". The original narrator describes the team-up as "Two Convoys", which makes sense. Due to the literal translation, the dub's narrator describes the team-up as "Two Optimus Primes". Another infamous example is when both the Matrix of Leadership AND the Energon Cubes are called "Power Packs" like they are interchangeable. In fact, the spiritual significance of the Matrix is apparently ignored — it's as if the people doing the dub thought it was just a fancy piece of equipment. In one episode, Fortress Maximus is called "Spaceship Bruce". In episode 3, Galvatron says "So, everybody from Cybertron is here — that's good!", which doesn't really make sense in that context. This is because the people doing the dub didn't take into account that Autobots are called "Cybertrons" in Japanese. The correct translation would thus be something like "So, all you Autobots are here — that's good!" Certain characters were given random names, including those who had pre-established English names. Some of these wacky names include: Jazz became Marshall Blurr became Wally Blaster became Billy The name of one episode was hilariously rendered as The Ressurected Billy Against the Decepticons. Metroplex became Philip Spike Witwicky became Sparkle Hot Rod became "Rodimus Prime" (Rodimus being pronounced "Roadimus") Raiden (the Trainbots' combined mode) became Grimlock (even though there was already a character by that name) Twincast became...Blaster Soundblaster became New Soundwave Jack became Sappo Fortress's battleship Maximus became Spaceship Bruce Grand Galvatron became "Unicorn" (in some misguided attempt to tie the concept to Unicron) Other oddities include Grimlock speaking normally, Blurr/Wally speaking slowly, and Wheelie not speaking in rhyme, but in the process gaining some kind of Scottish accent. | |

Telling your most loyal and competent subordinate that you plan to use his body parts to augment yourself into a planet-sized Transformer won't get him to abandon you in your time of need. No sir, it won't. Similarly, once Scorponok abandons Sixshot and orders him to attack Fortress Maximus on his own, and is promptly abandoned, Sixshot is very suspicious of his motives as immediately before, they had a violent argument, despite the fact that Scorponok is the emperor because Sixshot betrayed Galvatron, though he ultimately brushes it off as the emperor tries to claim he had no choice and could trust on Sixshot making it back. When Scorponok makes a clear assassination attempt on Sixshot's life, Sixshot immediately abandons the Decepticons. | |

Off-Model: While the animation never dips into the level of AKOM from the third season of the Cartoon, the animation is an obvious downgrade from Toei's own work on that season, with flatter and duller coloring and drawings on the whole that gets worse as the series soldiers on.

Demoted to Extra: Several Season 3 characters wind up like this. In particular the Autobot triple changers: While Springer was a major character, Sandstorm got two focus episodes and Broadside appeared semi-regularly. Here, the former two are given unvoiced cameos and Broadside appears in only a few scenes. Sky Lynx is also written out in the anime, due to his toy being owned by Toybox, a competitor to Takara, at that time. | |

Precision F-Strike: Chromedome:Fucking Destrons (Decepticons). He says it at around the 0:56 mark. This is a case of Spice Up the Subtitles. Chromedome utters "Desutoron-me", which is a fairly light equivalent of coarse dialogue in the Japanese language. A more accurate translation would yield "damn Decepticons" or "curse you, Decepticons". | |

Adaptational Wimp: People who know Arcee from the American cartoon will be pretty astonished at the formidable female warrior suddenly being turned into a passive secretary who acts in horror at the mere thought of fighting. Similarly, the previously capable Blurr becomes a nervous wreck who always panics at the first sign of a Decepticon attack. Kup is no longer an Old Soldier; he never fights except in the recap at the beginning of Episode 1, claiming he is too old. | |

| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here!: Surprisingly, Rodimus Prime, a good guy example of this trope who never returned to "save the day". After Cybertron was destroyed, Rodimus Prime pretty much gave up trying to lead the Autobots, casually passed on his leadership to Fortress, and left to find a new homeworld for their people. This is largely due to the writer's intention to replace him with the Headmasters as main protagonists. | |

Continuity Snarl: One of the biggest issues in the series. Optimus in the film dies from his battle with Megatron. Here... he gets randomly shot by a Decepticon laser fire. Though you can't blame Toei Animation or Takara for that due to the No Export for You issues regarding the movie at that time. Despite being exiled by Galvatron at the end of The Five Faces of Darkness, Blitzwing makes recurring appearances as part of the Decepticons throughout the series. | |

Dub Name Change | |
| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: Some rather hilarious ones in the Omni dub. You can find the name changes on the Omni entry on TFWiki. Of note: Blaster -> "Billy"; Jazz -> "Marshall", Blurr -> "Wally", and Spike Witwicky -> "Sparkle". Then, there's Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime, who was called "Rodimus Prime" (with a long O, sounding like Roadimus) in both forms. Bear in mind, these are all characters from the original series, which was shown in Singapore in its original American broadcast form. Perhaps the best (read: most amusing) invocation of this trope comes from Twincast and Soundblaster, the rebuilt versions of Blaster and Soundwave respectively. The dub calls Twincast "Blaster", thereby getting his new name wrong by finally getting his original name correct. Meanwhile Soundblaster is quite literally called "New Soundwave", which is spoken so quickly in dialogue that it sounds as if it's a one-word name ("Newsoundwave") | |

The Mole: Punch/Counterpunch for the Autobots, which is a significant first for the Autobots since in the original G1 episodes they never seemed to have any intel of their Decepticon foes and merely react to situations caused by them. Punch/Counterpunch did a relatively good job (For a kids' show), and unlike Soundwave and his cassettes, he was never actually exposed because the Decepticons are pretty much idiots. | |

More Senior Subordinate: Early into the series, Autobot supreme commander Convoy (Optimus Prime) is killed preventing the super computer at the heart of planet Cybertron from going berserk. However, mid-way through the series Cybertron is destroyed anyway, and Rodimus Convoy/ Rodimus Prime resigns as leader of the Autobots and departs to seek a new homeworld for the Transformers. His successor is Fortress Maximus, who only recently left his homeworld of Master alongside his fellow Headmasters to seek out the Autobots. More senior Autobots like Ultra Magnus and Metroplex accept him as their commander for the remainder of the series. | |

| Transformers: ★Headmasters / int_f16da697 | comment |
Undying Loyalty: There was actually not much characterization of Sixshot in the first half of the show, so it might create the impression that he's nothing more than just a loyal and competent Decepticon. Ultimately, this trope was averted: When Sixshot was told he would be sacrificed for Galvatron's Grand Galvatron project, he joined Scorponok's cause instead. Later on, he proved that he wasn't blindly loyal and retaliated when Scorponok betrays him too. | |
