Transformers Wild King Anime Episodes with Fan Subs and Episode Notes

Posted by william-james88 Apr 26, 2025 at 10:07pm CDT 103,596 views
We thank Sabreblade for posting about the recent episode for Takara's Wild King line. But that is not all he did, he has also been helping fansub these episodes. Below you will have the first two episodes in Japanese with notes on how to have English subtitles on Youtube. AND there is also an upload for those same episodes with fansubs. We have fan subs for the first 3 episodes and for the 4th, we have the Japanese upload which you can translate with the youtube trick highlighted.

We thank Sabrblade for his notes, and his help in the translation. Let us know if you likes these episodes!

If you turn on the closed captions and switch the language to auto-translated English, you can get a not-terrible English translation of the dialogue with a decent understanding of what the characters are saying.

Also, at the end of the video is a toy advert for Optimus and Lightlong's toys, which shows the full transformation of each. Optimus's toy transformation is nigh identical to that of the Generations Thrilling 30 Legends class Optimus toy from 2013.


Sabrblade wrote:The fansubber uploaded a newly revised version of their fansub for the first two episodes. It's a much better translation quality overall. Still a few small typos here and there, and the episode titles in English are incorrect, but an overall significant improvement than before.



Sabrblade wrote:Fansub of Episode 3.

This time, I and a few others actually got to help contribute to this translation after reaching out to the fansubber to help polish it up. One minor typo slipped by us at the beginning ("Elemental Energy" should be "Element Energy"), but everything else is up to spec.




Sabrblade wrote:Episode 4: "The Kindhearted Hydrophant".



We get three new Energy Beast characters: the titular Hydrophant, a Spinosaurus with Earth-element Ground Energy, and a fire-element lion named Ignite Leo. The Spinosaurus's name is a bit tricky to determine at this point, but it's something like "Spirituan" or "Spirichuan" (スピリチュアン). Every Energy Beast has something related to their element in their names, but the ground/earth elemental aspect in his name doesn't seem to be as obvious.

Another unseen character, Drillnohorn, gets name-dropped in the episode by Lightlong.

To be blunt, they're not formal full recaps. I haven't discussed much of anything regarding the plot of any episode.


They still give interesting tidbits.

They need a version to watch with just flashing eyes so that robots that only communicate with flashing eyes and no movanle lips can understand it :?


Seeing animated mushroom pegs and leg hollows is now a thing. Dunno seems like it might be ohay for some audiences.

Episode 4's fansub. This one took a little longer due to Hydrophant's verbal tic making some of his dialogue tricky to understand:

Episode 5: "Courage to Protect What's Important"



Also, the official website has been updated with bios for Ignite Leo and Spirituan.

Energy Beast IGNITE LEO
A lion-type Transformer with a strong sense of justice and belligerence. He possesses "Flame Energy" within his body, allowing him to control the power of fire. He challenges Optimus to a figure after receiving word from his old friend Spirituan that he has found the Legendary Hero. After exchanging blows with Optimus, who was Wildocked with Lightlong and Hydrophant, he was convinced that he could be the force that could stop the evil power!

Energy Beast SPIRITUAN
A spinosaurus-type Transformers who is the most intelligent and calm of the Dinosaur Tribe. He possesses "Ground Energy" within his body, allowing him to control the power of earth. He excels in technical combat, using qualities and the surrounding environment rather than mere power. He was the first to sense the evil energy hidden behind the Element Shield, and sought a way to stop Megatron. Then he learns of the existence of Optimus and stands before him to see if he is qualified to be the legendary hero...!

The fansub for Episode 5 is finally done:

Episode 6 has dropped.

"New Allies, New Threats"



EDIT: Hmm, Thunderbeak is obviously voiced by a woman and sounds like a woman, but uses the first-person pronoun of "boku" (僕) at one point, which is a male pronoun. I get the feeling that if Thunderbeak was meant to be female, the toy advert at the end of the video would point that out, but it doesn't. I guess this means we're meant to perceive Thunderbeak as merely a young and/or somewhat effeminate boy character.

In all honesty, I have no answer at this time, unfortunately.

Bummer, but totally understood. If positive feedback helps at all, they've been quite enjoyable and well done!

So, uh... Episode 10 of Wild King was set to release back on September 24, and apparently it did, but there's a bit of a catch. Checking the Wild King playlist on TakaraTomy's YouTube channel, they've made Episode 10 a hidden video, likely geoblocked for regions outside of Japan, for some reason.
