Episode 43 - Why Is He Not Green? (with @DanielAdkinsPrd!)

Armada episode 43 - Puppet / Micron Legend episode 43 - Nisemono
The best character in all of Armada has arrived, and so has Daniel Adkins! Join us as they spin us a tale of space knights, wiki-work and Powerlinx decoes, before we fall through a vortex into an episode with promising, memorable imagery... that the writers just didn't care enough to do anything with.
(Fair warning: some of our commentary towards the end of the episode does get rather blue.)

Episode 42 - The Bumblebee Battles

Armada episode 42 - Miracle / Micron Legend episode 42 - Fukkatsu
We delve into the Mystic Mystery of the Mini-Cons this week, with an episode that gets points for *trying* with its dub... even if it manages to "fix" errors that don't exist in the process. Blurr has been replaced with an impostor, High Wire wants to go to Candy Mountain, Megatron is keeping a picture of his nemesis on his pillow, and Hot Shot is, like, 10. PLUS: Orbs, generally.

Episode 41 - The Human World Does Not Exist

Armada episode 41 - Depart / Micron Legend episode 41 - Tabidachi
Our prayers for actual human interaction and focus on the kids is finally answered... but is it too little too late? Join us as we dive into Rad's parents' loveless marriage, and discover why Billy and Fred are just SO essential to the narrative that they can't be dropped. Plus: a special guest, here to tell you about the traaaaanslations!

Episode 40 - Weeow Weeow Weeow Weeow! Transform!

Armada episode 40 - Remorse / Micron Legend episode 40 - Aseri
A slow news week (or should that be "Joe news week"?) gives way to a character piece with some interesting animation, focusing on Hot Shot in the wake of Optimus's death — but more importantly, SCAVENGER GETS TO DO STUFF AGAIN! Plus, find out why Rad and Hot Shot are subtextually the same character!

Episode 39 - He Just Sort of T-Poses There

Armada episode 39 - Crisis / Micron Legend episode 39 - Kiki
Stop us if you've heard this one before - by which I mean "if you've watched The Transformers The Movie", because this entire episode is riffing on that. The kids still don't get to do anything, but at least they get to have opinions; Hot Shot is harsh, but not wrong; and Optimus Prime does that thing that Optimus Primes always do. This one's actually pretty affecting!

Episode 38 - Lord Megatron, the Girls are Fightiiiing!

Armada episode 38 - Threaten / Micron Legend episode 38 - Hydra Cannon
As Armada comes off a rather inexplicable five month hiatus, we are faced with several questions about Starscream. For instance: is he stupid? Hot Shot and Alexis make sad faces, the Decepticons demonstrate the power of their fully armed and operational battlestation, and the writers have no idea what to do with either Side Swipe or Wheeljack.

Episode 37 - Better Make it Hurt, Better Make it Count

Armada episode 37 - Crack / Micron Legend episode 37 - Pride
Starscream succumbs to toxic masculinity in an episode that had both of us thinking we knew exactly where it was going, only to be absolutely blindsided by the ending. Some surprisingly clever dub changes, an actually good Fred and Billy scene, and a plot built around a contrived miscommunication - did we like this episode? Did we not? We have no idea, but it gives us a lot to talk about!
