Bumblebee Hajimete no Chikyuu Seikatsu

Transformers' Bumblebee continues his tour in Japan with new chibi-fied versions of the robot by Pop Team Epic's Bkub Okawa and animator Yuzo Yamamoto promoting the Japanese release of the Bumblebee film.

The Transformers film franchise prequel stars Hailee Steinfeld as Charlie Watson, a girl who comes into possession of the Bumblebee autobot in 1987. The alien robot has lost his voice and has his memory bank damaged before taking the form of an old Volkswagen Beetle and going into hiding. When teenager Charlie Watson gets the Beetle for her birthday, she discovers it to be the mute and amnesiac B-127 and names him "Bumblebee", but his presence triggers the arrival of Decepticons Shatter and Dropkick, who receive assistance from Sector 7 to hunt him down.

The film premiered in Japanese theaters March 22, 2019.

This is a series of three shorts about the relationship between Bumblebee and Charlie from the 2018 Bumblebee film. Although it's in Japanese, with no English dub available, it's easy to follow if you understand the premise of the 2018 film. It does not retell the entire film, though.

The best parts of this anime were the anime-style transformation sequences for Bumblebee and the music. The use of happy, relaxing electronic music suited this because it kept the atmosphere cute and futuristic. Bumblebee's pupils changing to show emotion was another cute touch, and seeing Transformers from live-action get anime-style transformation sequences like in the Unicron ... Trilogy was also nice.
