I wouldnt mind, but when I read the title of the thread I thought we were talking Hasbro/US continuity not Japans.
Does it matter? Canon is canon, regardless of which market it's in.

Yes it matters.

And I believe you know that.

Everything official is canon, but not everything canon is in continuity with each other or other series.

Example A.

G1 US cartoon is canon.
G1 [Super Robot life] JP cartoon is canon.

But they arent in continuity with each other in the US continuity...which is why Scramble City,Headmasters etc. arent part of G1 US continuity.

Example B

G1 US Marvel comic is canon.
G1 UK Marvel comic is canon.

ut they arent in the same continuity, even thou they share many of the same events.

I do know that, yes. But, what's the problem with this being in the Japanese canon instead of the U.S. canon?

Nope, the Japanese version. Though, did you know of this Japanese one?

I read something about it a little while back, no details and from someone I didnt trust.

When I asked for details/proof the person never replied.

So, I really didnt know.

Wouldn't surprise me if you didn't believe him even if he did reply, since this whole story sounds like crazy fanfiction. :lol:
