Weird, Airazor’s a guy in Japan? Must make his relationship with Tigatron interesting.

Airazor’s toy was designed as male, but the Beast Wars story editors wanted another female in the cast, and so they decided she was a girl. (early enough for the packaging to call her a girl, anyway) Later, when Japan dubbed Beast Wars, they were all like girls are for suckers! and dubbed him as male.
Of course, when Beast Wars Metals came around and Tigatron and Airazor started yakkin’ about their feelings just before they got put on a bus, the dub was all sure, why not, what the hell and had Airazor come out.
Apparently some confused children wrote into magazines asking what was up with that, and the response was “some folks are just like that.”
Meanwhile, the Beast Wars Metals MANGA protrayed Airazor like this:

leguigui asked:
Out of curiosity, have you voted for the Masterpiece Takara poll? Which one, if you have?
Don’t you have to purchase expensive things and send in a survey to vote for that? I remember it being fairly complicated. Either way, I think Japan should probably get the Masterpiece toy Japan wants, without me trying to assert myself over them. I’m not really their audience.

Plus to add what dapperanarchist said about manga Japan has a complete different rule set to it's comic culture. They don't do this whole "COMICS ARE FOR MAN" stuff they have multigenre age and gender classification over there which fit better with their own set of gener roles which Japan has a much larger attachment to It is kind of obnoxious to think that just because Vampire Knight exists in a country that has had no problems with women reading comics that it eliminates false equivalence here
You always have to grab examples from other countries to prove my comic about American superheroes wrong.
nerdyblogname asked:
If you had to pick one Transformer to call your all time favorite, who and why?
Probably Transmetal Megatron. Well, the Metals version from Japan so he doesn’t explode.
temporalgalleon asked:
Have you ever spent upwards of a hundred dollars on something like a Japan exclusive Transformers toy that they never made an American version of?.
And some that they have made an American version of.
Ladies dig the monster arm.

I was about to note that I own both of ‘em but… well, those are my photos, so, uh, Obvious, I guess.
leguigui asked:
"And nobody ever tells her to stay behind because it’s too dangerous." Wait for the Japan dubs.
As far as I’ve heard, the dubs have only really messed with Airachnid, partly in their attempt to tie the character in closely with their version of Blackarachnia, whose voice actor also voices Airachnid. I dunno if they’ve touched Arcee. Though if someone was dubbed to tell her to stay behind because it’s too dangerous, the animation clearly shows she doesn’t give a fuck what you think.
patmyers replied to your photo: …have… have I remarked yet how batshit insane (no…
But how does Walkyverse Willis feel about it? I forsee a trip to Japan to smash some computers over some minor quibble with the design.
Hidetsugu Yoshioka can draw SG Ratbat any damn way he wants.

More like the magical girl has just fought off Cthulhu again and is now on her way to school. That's more accurate. Japan has weird stuff.
