Introduction -What is the Transformer?-

 Hello everyone! My name is Takahiro Jin.
 From this week, I'll begin blogging about "the Transformers" for ten weeks.
 From week 1 to week 5, I'll talk about it as a kind of creatures.

 The first theme for this week is "Introduction -What is the Transformer?-"
I'll introduce the Transformers as simply as I can.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 Do you know the "Transformers"?
 It's a metallic creature has lived on the planet Cybertron, and it also refers the series of the media works and the toys of it. It has origin in the Origami of Japan. When their toys made in Japan exported to the U.S.,  the new idea with high quality was a great hit and they made explosive sales ! And the first movie in 1986 made $5,849,647 only in the U.S..  Literally, It is famous that they changes their form. But the reason for transforming is not known widely.


 In Japan, there are more famous robots else: Gundom,  Evangelion, and so on, however,  the Transformers has so long history too and has a high popularity all over the world. Sadly in Japan, it doesn't spread so much as far as I see. It's also one of the reason I chose this theme for this blogging.
 So I will be glad if you were interested in this great works.

 For first of all, it's better for you to feel the history and to compare the first and last movie works visually.
 A part of the upper movie on YouTube is shown at once in the presentation on this English class.
 And the lower movie is a longer version of same series of upper movie.


Seeing these movie, in recent movie there are lots of same character and scenes used to appear in the first movie. From this, we can see the great respects for the great success of the first movie.
 The works of the Transformers has so many series. And to tell the truth, We can see this spirit of respects in all series. 
From next week, I'll begin talking and explain each theme of transformers in detail.

Don't forget to check this blog next week!
See you. ;-)
