You know, it really makes me weird and some useless Trainbots facts i learned:
i was headcanon Seizan being the second oldest trainbot because one gijinka fanart until many fans i found on Japan agreed Kaen is the second oldest.
I have a thought Kaen + Seizan is a second pair i have seen albeit still rare after the "common" pair Shouki + Getsuei. This is probably because their personality is kinda feel good comparison, opposite attract from personality and color choices and some panel on really niche Japanese comic, Train Wars (i forgot which one) where it showed the prototype of that two guys (Miracle and Crystal.... if i remember it) where big guy carry the light guy. And then here i am pairing Seizan with Suiken for no reason outside both have almost same hobbies and being arms of Raiden. However i prefer pairing trainbots as platonic trammates who try to share warmth like a real family. Nothing sus tho.
In g1 toy, Kaen is tallest and Shouki is shortest. Meanwhile on mpg, Kaen is the shortest and Shouki is the tallest. Oh yeah irony....
Do you think Suiken is implied to be second in command of the Trainbots? I rethinking again on TF Go! Go! Comic panel tho. On subtext wise it felt like he is.... What if you search again many bio on many sources about every trainbots who is the second in commands on Trainbots anyway?
Do you like the idea of "manfailure otaku" who is actually can do his job terrific cool and really compotent in night mode Getsuei (kinda reminds me to Zenitsu from Demon Slayer or Toko Fukawanfrom danganronpa). I like that idea tho. Altough it is really deviated from what Getsuei supposed to be, just a lazy guy. But i want him to be more than just lazy and chill.
What do you think and opinion of Shouki's black make up or mask on his eyes that you see in TF Headmasters and maybe even MPG toyline anyway?
Do you think there Will be Trainbots next appearance on 2026? I am hungry for more official content of him. :(
That is how i said to you. As a fellow stranger who likes Trainbots, thank you for being one of the Trainbots fans.
First time answering an ask, hope I do it right!
1.Honestly yeah, I agree that Seizan is the second oldest. I have made my own HC of the order the trainbots were made in, might make a separate post for it.
2.ooo I like that one! I personally also like Seizan and Yukikaze because Seizan likes hiking, and Yuki likes snow, and there's usually snow on tall mountains!
3. I noticed that! I HC that Shouki is the shortest just because I think it's a little funny
4. I actually didn't pick up on that. I've been reading GoGo with my browser's built in translator (which isn't good) and my kinda mid ability to read Japanese, so a lot of things get missed on my end when reading it
5. I like this. Personally, I think he just has a different sleep schedule and isn't lazy! He does what he can, when he can!
6. i love Shouki's eyes in general. A shape not usually seen with transformers, and in all honesty, a lot of bots from the later Brave/Yuusha (勇者) series look more similar to him than other bots from the Transformers franchise (EX: Exkaiser or Dran). I love his eyeliner stuff, and when drawing him, it makes some expressions easier to draw
7. Although I adore the trainbots, it's very unlikely that they'll make another appearance any time in the next decade. Remember how JUST SHOUKI randomly got a toy in 2014 then was thrown back into Takara's dungeon? Yeah...
Anyway, sorry for delayed reply, I hope these were good enough answers!
