New Legends Manga Translation Vol 08 - The Secret of Delta Magnus Part 2

 

PART 2

Part 1 is hiding here

Good time of the day to you .  Here I am proud to have the second part of Delta Magnus and his adventures in the New Legends, End of G1 Universe manga all lovingly made into English for you viewing pleasure.  

Luckily, this Magnus CAN handle it!

As usual, my random ass comments will be at the end of the post.

Read this baby Left to right.

Random thoughts notes:

  • Page 8: we have Melissa from Kiss Players and Delta Magnus shooting the breeze.  I rather like that we can see the Missing Link Delta Magnus as the original.
  • Page 9: Delta Takes command, like a champ!  Lots of opportunities to use TF The Movie Quotes in this one.  They certainly feel that way in the Japanese.  Hmm, now that I think of it, I've not seen the Japanese movies (but soon I will ).  The Battleship Nemesis is now called the White Nemesis, interesting.
  • Page 10: We find The Fallen doing his best to hedge his bets by keeping the matrix intact.  Also, a nice selection of various Junkions kicking about in the middle panel.
  • Page 11: Bluebolt and Gigastorm make a welcome return, chasing Galvatron.  I like "Abandon Ship," especially since Lawbhammer is driving it and he's a certified pirate!
  • Page 12: The Fallen's bravado failing him and the wonder of G2 colours merging!  Beautiful!  Also you can see some repeats fo the movie scenes, with everyone fighting off the claw things inside Unicron (Scissor Army)  Incidentally, G2 Menasor should have been released by the time this Manga was uploaded, but TakaraTomy had a few delays (thereby making October very expensive if you ordered Nemesis Star Convoy and Menasor...).
  • Page 13: I love the accaeptance Delta Magnus has that he isn't the original Delta, and the Fallen's confusion.  This is good comedy!  Oh and use of the word Transtector!
  • Page 14:  Unicron uses a very old and rarely used character for his pronoun 余, (Yo) appropriately used by gods and emperors (Who in Japan descended from gods, or they used to anyway - Up until 1945 ). Magnus'  Armour Arm Up, can be performed by the toy. Go go Gadget arm!
  • Page 15: Creature mode by Galvatron, gives him stabby hands.  We see the Requiem blaster in action, and it ain't that effective....  Arcee, kicking some ..... arce(e).  I had to say it.
  • Page 16: A nice moment with Magnus and his little Primal Vanguard crew! Aw.  Arcee didn't seem to last too long and we see The Fallen getting throttled.
  • Page 17:  The Fallen calls Magnus a baka (idiot), but its in the vein of "I love you... you Baka" anime troupe.  Tsundere guy that he is. Galvatron is impressed at Magnus Stamina! Tsundere guy that he is!  Magnus falling to pieces and actually coming out on top!
  • Page 18: The Prime Magic circle is the same design as from the Dark Amber Leo Prime manga, but without the Prime's names on it.  Makes me wonder how far in advance this was thought about you know... 'coz that manga  is now over 4 years old.  Also, Bluebolt obviously had the plan to make another circle, which is why they are burning it into the floor.  It didn't just happen to be inside Unicron.  Which would make that circle thing rather powerful if you think about it;  Using the metal of Unicron... Sentinel has quite nice artifact there.
  • Page 19: The Fallen's redemption!  Moved by Magnus' actions, he makes a major sacrifice! I hope this isn't the end for him, I liked his devious character!  And lookee here, we got some BW buds showing up in a blue Ark... More expensive repaints on the horizon chaps!
Tally ho!

And this will continue in the Dark Amber Leo Prime and Bluebolt Manga, which I have waiting for my eyeballs to check it out.

Thanks for stopping by and I'll catch ya laters
