A kiss is a peculiar sort of human bonding ritual involving (sometimes mutual) oral contact. The reasons for this strange phenomenon are usually beyond the typical Transformer's understanding, resulting in many an uncomfortable line of questioning. Are these fleshlings transmitting data? Is it an energy-transferral process? Why are they doing it in my back seat?
The plot thickens. When properly administered by the correct agent, a kiss can provide an incredibly potent power boost to Transformers, with occasionally unpredictable results.
Marvel Comics continuity
It has been stated on a few occasions that the kiss is an act of atonement for past perceived misdeeds. However, this information comes from a very small dataset, specifically the individual human named Jessie. While in the company of Buster Witwicky, she has repeatedly described the act of kissing as "apologizing." Since the use of this term has not been observed in use by any other human (other than Buster himself, seemingly part of an attempt to encourage continued kissing from Jessie), the conclusions one can draw are strictly limited. Brainstorm! The Car Wash of Doom!
Kissing is not limited to the humans of Earth. The ritual is also practiced on Nebulos by the Nebulans Gort and Marita. The Autobot Highbrow was able to witness this event, which caused a short but violent war between their race and the Transformers. Clearly volatile emotions surround this act. Highbrow, at the time, was not able to ascertain whether kissing was akin to a binomial data transfer, and even after binary-bonding with Gort, answers have not been received. Ring of Hate!
Generation 1 animated continuity
The Junkions have borrowed the human custom of kissing, apparently after watching much of their television transmissions. One Junkion was caught kissing the Dinobot Grimlock, which greatly confused him. The Transformers: The Movie
Beast Era
The Maximal Silverbolt and the Predacon Blackarachnia have been nearly observed kissing at several opportunities, but none of our recording equipment has been able to successfully capture it at the exact moment of contact. Again, as on Nebulos (see above), the act created an amount of irritation amongst the participants' peers. Agenda, Part 1 The after-effect of the kiss has been observed, however. When applied to the Maximal, it seems to disorient him for a moment and shoot small amounts of energy through his cranial module. Crossing the Rubicron
