I've said this before, but I honestly feel that if OP returns to his season 1 self after the next ep, it will be a huge missed opportunity.
Sure, give him his memory back, but have there be a caveat: have him imbued with a piece of Jack (or the like) to help him retain his youthful sense of wonder, doubt, and down-to-earth-non-epicness.
There is such a nice quality the Cullen's Orion Pax voice. I wonder if kids watching are perceptive enough to pick up on and appreciate the subtleties, and if the writers are bold enough to run with it for an extended period of time and reconstitute Optimus Prime in a different way.

I hope so too. I kind of liked the idea of Prime losing his memories, as along with that, he lost the heavy burden and years worth of endless war that weighed down his spirit. I hope he's able to retain some of his youthfulness when he reverts to Optimus as well.
