The whole thing got started when some artwork by Imaishi surfaced on social media featuring Transformers.

The artwork is incredibly dynamic as both shots are caught in action. To the left, Bumblebee is seen mid-leap with an arm extended to launch an energy blast. As for Optimus Prime, the machine appears to be finishing their transformation. It is also impossible to miss the massive blade launching from Optimus Prime’s arm, so you can see he is ready to take on an army of Deception if need be.
Imaishi’s tribute to Transformers is nothing short of impressive, and now anime fans are begging for a Studio Trigger take on the IP. For decades now, Transformers has been a lucrative series, and its roots go all the way to Japan. In ways, Transformers helped popularize the mecha genre, and Studio Trigger has embraced that rise with shows like Gurren Lagann.
