Fiction
Zone
Violen Jygar, a mysterious supernatural entity born from the culmination of numerous pissed off Decepticon sparks, used his paranormal abilities to summon the Nine Generals to aid him in his quest to obtain the Zodiac. In their first mission, the Generals obliterated Feminia, nearly killing Victory Saber in the process. Unfortunately, the Generals did not fare entirely too well after that.
During their attack on planet Zone, their attempts to steal the Zodiac were obstructed by Dai Atlas and Sonic Bomber. Devastator, King Poseidon, Trypticon and Predaking were killed in the battle and failed to obtain the Zodiac.
The remaining Generals all suffered defeats before their leader, Violen Jygar, was killed by Big Powered.
Notes
- The Japanese name for the Nine Great Demon Generals is Kyū Dai Mashougun, which literally translates to "9 Great Demonic Warriors". However, there is a pun present in there which doesn't translate into the English language. "Mashou" is the word for "devilish" or "demonic", while "shougun" is the word for "General", hence how they are considered "generals" over "warriors".
- The presence of the word "demon" as well as Black Zarak, a dead Decepticon, leaves many to believe that all the Demon Generals were resurrected from the dead. This would mean that all the Generals, save for Black Zarak, suffered deaths off-screen after their last appearances but prior to their appearance in Zone. Many people reject that theory, however.
- The character models for the Nine Genrerals which were created by Magami Bon and used in the Zone story pages differ considerably from the animation models used in the Zone OVA.
