From his newly-erected fortress Darkmount, Megatron reestablishes contact with Shockwave, learning the scientist has cloned a Predacon for the intent of hunting down the Autobots. Megatron responds by destroying the Autobot base, and Optimus is mortally wounded staying behind to ensure everyone else escapes through the GroundBridge. Though the keys are successfully gathered, Megatron gains possession of them and attempts to use the Omega Lock to cyberform Earth, forcing Optimus to destroy the Lock to save Earth. Trion also orders them to find the Omega Keys, which will activate the Omega Lock and restore Cybertron. The Autobots and Decepticons' struggle becomes a competition for Cybertronian artifacts strewn across the planet, which turn out to have been placed there by Alpha Trion, who foresaw the Autobots coming to Earth. With this new body, Silas destroys his own organization and attempts to join the Decepticons, only to become Knock Out's new dissection study. In the ensuing confrontation, Silas is fatally injured, forcing MECH to graft him into Breakdown. The Autobots also contend with the human terrorist organization, MECH, headed by former military operative Leland Bishop, aka Silas, who targets the Cybertronians for their technology, capturing Breakdown, Bumblebee, and Starscream for parts, and building a doppelgänger controlled by Silas. By using information from Vector Sigma downloaded to the Key, Jack restores Optimus's memory. Optimus Prime unleashes the Matrix of Leadership, but at the cost of losing his memory, thereby allowing Megatron to manipulate him into joining the Decepticons' ranks. The Autobots and Decepticons eventually make the startling discovery that Earth is in fact the body of Unicron, forcing them to ally and prevent his consciousness from reasserting control over the planet.

After Megatron's revival, Starscream flees after repeatedly showing he is unable to prove his loyalty to the Decepticon leader. Megatron returns, having discovered Dark Energon, which grants him the power to resurrect the dead, but is injured, with Starscream taking command in his absence. When the Decepticons resurface, the Autobots take three teenage witnesses, Jack Darby, Miko Nakadai, and Raf Esquivel under their protection. However, the presence of Transformers on Earth is not generally known among the civilian population. Autobot Central Command is located in a converted missile silo in Nevada provided by the United States government, with Special Agent William Fowler acting as their liaison.

Yes its not fluid or its not really impressive at all but the problem is is people will compare it to other animes but ones with better animation like your typical shounen shows like My hero Academia lets say the thing is though people have to bear in mind is that Jojo using high detail character models(Like by DB in a way) and if you compare it to lets say Mob Psycho 100 its not fair because MP1 uses very simple character models that use few colors and there aren't lines on his face or complex costumes or distinct facial feature not trying to be offensive but comparing it is unfair because achieving animation like that is only possible when your character models are very very simple or through CG.Team Prime lives on Earth, three years after their last confrontation with Decepticons. The reason people still love Part 2 has everything to do with their adaptation. I talk a lot about how I wish DP was more liberal in their cuts, even if its something I like, because they clearly understand the appeal of each part. While I think thats admirable, it cuts into time and resources, and completely robs creative freedom from the people making it. However, when the source material doesn't feel stiff, like the Dio fight or Highway Star, you can see them struggle.Īnd as others have pointed out, they are also dedicated to adapting basically everything. I think it also helps that the JoJo manga(especially what they have adapted so far) is a pretty stiff already. Thats not inherently bad either, through this we got the color shift, the idea being that if they don't have frames to make a scene look better, then they can make it look interesting through color, while also referencing the source material.

It liberally traces over manga panels and uses still frames and minimal animation to fill some time. Its not hate, but its pretty easy to see that JoJo is a pretty barebones show when it comes to animation.
