Mount Fuji

Megatron would soon learn that a "bullet climb" was much less violent than he'd been led to believe.

Mount Fuji (富士山 Fuji-san) is the largest mountain in Japan and as such is usually conspicuous whenever someone visits that country. It can even be seen from Tokyo.

Fiction

Generation 1 cartoon continuity

The Transformers cartoon

Mount Fuji was present when the Autobots chased Kremzeek around Japan. Kremzeek! Astrotrain attempted to play chicken with a train near the mountain, only to be stopped by the Aerialbots. The Burden Hardest to Bear

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers manga

Mount Fuji was also visible in the distance when Optimus Prime presented Kenji with an Autobot helmet so he could keep in touch with them. Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers #1

Car Robots cartoon

J-Five was passing by Mount Fuji when Ai contacted Team Shinkansen to tell them the Destrongers were attacking Tokyo. Gigatron's Raid!

The Robots in Disguise dub does not take place in Japan, and so the mountain is not Mount Fuji in that continuity.

The Headmasters cartoon

On their way to Tokyo, the Trainbots, Wheelie, and Daniel Witwicky flew over Mount Fuji. They all agreed it was one of the most beautiful mountains in existence. Terror! The Six Shadows

Super-God Masterforce cartoon

When Professor Gō was looking for somewhere to build a cunningly-disguised Autobot Base, he picked right next to Mount Fuji. Handily the International School was located nearby, and Cab also constructed a treehouse in the woods surrounding the mountain. Kidnapping!? The Targeted Jumbo Jet This proved to be a drawback when the Decepticons threatened the Mt Fuji Foothills Hang Gliding Competition Tournament, and Hawk and Lander had to leave the base by a back exit to avoid revealing the base's location. Super Warriors - The Godmaster Brothers

When the Decepticon Headmaster Juniors were searching for the Autobot base, Cancer thought he recognized the mountain from an earlier occasion when he had been captured by the Autobots, but he wasn't sure, so they didn't bother to check it out. Friend or Foe!? The True Form of the Monster!!

Victory cartoon

The Autobots parked Shuttle Base not far from Mount Fuji while Star Saber underwent the operation so he could combine with Victory Leo. Awaken! Victory Leo

An air show took place at the base of Mount Fuji, which Junpei attended. Unfortunately it was gatecrashed by the Decepticon Cyberjets, and before long, Optimus Prime and Megatron were duking it out there. Spoilers: Optimus won. The New Battle!!

Go! cartoon

Dragotron was imprisoned within Mount Fuji's crater. A young boy, hiking at the top of the crater with his father, kicked a stone in, inadvertently causing Dragotron to stir. The Predacon awakened just enough to activate a number of his comrades. Triple Combination! Swordbot - Samurai! Dragotron continued to slumber in a cavern beneath the mountain, watched over by the Four Oni until he finally awakened fully. Depart! Optimus Exprime! Enter! The New Warrior!

After the last two Legendiscs were obtained, the awakened Dragotron abducted Isami Tatewaki and Tobio Fūma, taking them to Mount Fuji where he absorbed both them and the Legendiscs they carried. The power he gained allowed him to start Cyberforming Earth, beginning with Mount Fuji. He was followed there by Optimus Prime and the Swordbot Samurai and Shinobi Teams, and once Dragotron had been defeated, Mount Fuji reverted to its natural state. Final Battle! Link-Up Triple Combination DaiKenzan! Final Battle! Link-Up Triple Combination DaiGekisou!

Notes

• Doctor Fujiyama the Famous Scientist in the Generation 1 cartoon may have been named by the writers in homage to the mountain. Unfortunately, "Fujiyama" is incorrect Japanese grammar, with the mountain's native name being rendered Fuji-san. Oops.
