I like Cyberverse, its not the greatest thing; but Even season 1 I enjoy. I LIKED how they did the radio speak here, and prefer it to making Bumblebee a minicon -=looks to Prime=-. I also like their takes on some of the characters like the sorta Jekyl and Hyde take on Grimlock (though that got phased out as the series continued) or their take on Arcee where she seems good balanced of 'modern girl' and 'action girl' when she's usually either Action girl extreme or feminine sterotypes. And we got pairings we'd not normally get like Arcee and Grimlock being thrill seeking best buds. I liked Telegram X and his interactions with Windblade (and loved they called back to that in the finale).
I LOVE that the series made Optimus Prime an actual character again and not just 'boring epic line spewer'. Like yeah, he's kinda that in Season 1, but that's becuase we are seeing him through Bumblebee's optics. Once we really get to him being in the show, we see sorta the other side of his character with his weaknesses and worries. We see that this Optimus while keeping all the ideals of the character over the generations, also is rather anixous and introverted, we see him overcoming his personal thoughs and feelings to be the leader without seeing his rise. Which kinda shows that everyone can have these kinda issues and hang-ups. Even the people we respect most can still be vulnerable and have things they need to constantly overcome. This possibly the most 'G1' Optimus has been since the Sunbow cartoon back before bullshit like 'Primes don't party' and only being rememebered for his now meme-ish dialouge in the 86 movie.
