Yami no kanata seijaku wo hikisaki
Hoshi no nemuri yobiokosu no wa
Doitsu da?
Hora me no mae jaaku na tamashiitachi
Nigeba wa nai massugu ni uketomero!
Someone tells me "yowaki" ya "osore" wo shōkyo shite
Bokura wa ishiki kumikaeru
Sono te wo tsuyoku nigiri
Tagai no kizuna shinjite
Tatakae!
Saa All I can do
And all you can do
Habatake Transform
Sono mune tsuranuku ikari wo chikara ni kae
Ima All I can do
And all you can do
Kagayake Transform
Shinka no Stage e
Touch and go!
English translation
Out in the darkness, someone is rending the silence
Awakening this planet from its sleep
Who is it?
Look, evil spirits are right before you
There's nowhere to run, so take 'em straight on!
Someone tells me to erase my "worries" and "fear"
We reconstruct our minds
Clench your fists strongly
Believe in the bonds between us
And fight!
So all I can do
And all you can do
Is flap your wings and transform
Turn the anger piercing your heart into strength
Now all I can do
And all you can do
Is shine and transform
To the stage of evolution
Touch and go!

Listen closely! It's a new "beginning"
Why do you think this age is testing us?
Power is awakened in an unknown area
Unleash the light, aim for the ultimate level
We will all clear a series of trials
And overcome what we are now
Forward down the path of distress!
Believe in infinite evolution
And fight!
So all I can do
And all you can do
Is take off and transform
Turn all the scars left on your body into marks of pride
Now all I can do
And all you can do
Is battle on and transform
Down the road of evolution

Single release
Hahahaha look at that one dude! He is so serious and his wig is SO BAD.
This song has yet to be released on any soundtrack albums.
Notes
For some reason, the on-screen subs for the cartoon's opening transliterates all the English words into katakana while the CD's lyric sheet uses a mix of Japanese and English text. Since these are both official media, that's also what we've done here.
This title sequence uses completely original animation and features no recycled footage from the show.
To say that this intro has little to do with the actual show would be an understatement. Somecharacters with small roles within the series as a whole get lots of exposure in the video, while more prominentones are only briefly seen, and one particularly important character is completely absent. Rather than focusing on Detroit, the intro seems to jump all over the globe, such as Ratchet, Prowl and Bumblebee in front of the Flatiron Building in New York City, Bulkhead on the Great Wall of China, Blitzwing in Egypt, Ironhide in Sydney, Lockdown fighting Prowl in Osaka, Japan, and Megatron appearing in Washington, D.C.
For those who have not seen the show, the intro spoils a lot of things, including Blackarachnia's relation to Elita-1, Starscream's embedded AllSpark shard, his clones, Omega Supreme's appearance, Blackarachnia's control of the Dinobots and even Longarm's betrayal, as Ratchet fights him rather than Shockwave.
During the interval after the phrase 'Get and Go', a chant going "Defeat Decepticon!" can be heard.
