A special episode of the Seibertron.com Twincast Podcast brings listeners an in-depth breakdown of the first five episodes of Transformers: War for Cybertron, "Chapter Two: Earthrise". This episode does spoil the content of the Netflix streaming series and listeners need to be aware of this beforehand and may want to consider watching the soon-to-be-released series before listening. The podcast talk goes episode by episode, beginning with the first one which feels like a natural continuation of the previous chapter, "Siege". For the second episode, the Mercenaries group and usage of a Quintesson character are discussed along with their relevance to the plot of the show. The third and fourth episodes introduce split opinions between the cast with varying impressions of the pacing and characters found within the show's middle episodes. A lengthy breakdown of the fifth episode, including some of its possible connections to other much older Transformers media, rounds out the episode-by-episode breakdown. Throughout the podcast as well as at the end, general thoughts on the show's quality, plot, characters, voice acting, voice direction, score, and much more are shared.
