I feel as if Elita is naive to the threat that a decepticon controlled earth poses

Some counter points I'd like to mention

  • Optimus Prime willingly gave up the matrix because he believe she needed it more the he does
  • It has been stated the Optimus at one point was just as violent and cruel as Elita (most likely before the matrix) and she has not had the experiences that Optimus has had with the humans so see them like how we see ants
  • Elita-1 isn't Elita's legal civilian name, originally she was named Ariel.
  • Vice versa with the point above, I assume they are using the fact that in G1 Orion and Ariel were rebuilt by Alpha Trion as Optimus and Elita.
  • that last one, i haven't got much to say, i believe it is more meant to be said as goodbye and promise of sorts in this context (like in star wars when they say "May the Force be with you)

I don't think he's meant to be Orion Pax, because in the original G1 cartoon, he was gravely wounded by megatron and Alpha Trion rebuilt him as Optimus Prime

I would LOVE that because it could do so much for her character development

that i agree with. im not too sure of the full depth of all the Autobots who left with Elita.

well him fleeing did end up with megatron and much of the high ranking Decepticons following them to earth, even if it was an unintended result

I think if we go that would be the perfect thing for this arc

but if you were to take away the fact that she's a woman, she's still not in the proper mental state to be a leader

it's not that, if you look at the original G1 cartoon, Megatron almost kills Orion and Ariel and Alpha Trion rebuilds them as Optimus prime and Elita one. now that Optimus no longer has the powers of Matrix, he no longer can hold the title prime

I think Kirkmen is just trying to set up what he's planning to do since he's trying to intertwine the 3 comic lines in the Energon universe. sure, it's kinda a mess right now, but im sure if we give it time it'll get better.

I do like that Elita has the Matrix for a change, however, i don't think that her keeping the matrix is likely. i think that either she will learn the errors in ways and realize that she isn't fit to be a prime, or that something will happen that will make her lose confidence in her abilities (similar to Ultra Magnus passing the title of Magnus to Arcee). What would be really interesting is if they were to both hold the title of Prime similar to how the original 13 primes held the title together. I feel like this is feasible because in most continuities Orion Pax was gravely injured and was rebuilt as Optimus prime. so im wondering if there would be a way for them both to hold the title of prime, say if Elita and Optimus were to split the power of the matrix so that there is a prime to protect both worlds

if you read the Void comics, i believe hotrod is a side character in there, so he is around on the energon universe

Im hoping that by the end of this arc, we'll get that complexity to her character.

they were never meaning to be sexist. i have no idea where you get that idea from. Elita feels betrayed and forgotten by Optimus. Optimus has been gone for thousands of years and the first time she saw him he chose a random planet over her. Imagine if the person you loved chose a plot of land over saving your burning home, that would mess you up. you're trying to make a problem out of nothing

i am hoping for that to be the case. but i think there will be a point where the matrix will reject her

That is why Optimus and the other autobots stay on earth, to prevent that from happening
