Category:Transformers (Japan)
From Multiversal Omnipedia
Transformers in Japan originally matched the U.S. canon, save for some naming differences and other subtle changes. (For example, Optimus Prime was known as Convoy, and the factions were the Cybertrons (Autobots) and Destrons (Decepticons).) However, it gradually evolved into a continuity of its own- beginning with ignoring the fourth U.S. season in favor of their Transformers Headmasters. Over the years, it added entire series' worth of its own events and elements to those of the U.S. continuity.
