Sonic: Night of the Werehog (Monster Transformation)

I get bothered when people call Sonic a "werehog". "Were" means "man"--a real werehog is a man who transforms into a hog. Sonic is already a hedgehog--all his transformation involves is growing claws and extra muscles and fur. Anyway, here's an animated short Sega put together to promote the new video game, called "Night of the Werehog." There's no time counter, but I can say that the TF is in the final third of the film. See it here.

Werepig (Pig Transformation)

Here's a Spanish claymation short about two boorish American tourists who come to a squealing end. The (anti-)American jokes are rather heavy-handed, but the claymation is very well done.

Batman: The Brave and the Bold (Animal Transformations)

(Edit: the youtube links in this post no longer work, but you can view the scenes at Shadowlord Inc., thanks to Dragoniade.)

I'm a bit late in posting this one (which is especially galling since I was aware of this TF a week before it aired), but here's an ape transformation from the "Terror on Dinosaur Island" episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The villain Gorilla Grodd is attempting to transform men into gorillas, but his first victim doesn't make it all the way into gorilla-hood. It's really more of a muscle-expansion/clothes bursting transformation than an animal one, but that's all the TF we get. Watch it here. TF begins at the 03:39 mark. Here's hoping this show airs as many transformations as Batman: the Animated Series, the landmark cartoon that proved Americans could match the Japanese.

Seto no Hanayome 11 (Growth Transformations)

Here's a fun-looking anime whose central character turns into a giant in episode 11, complete with ripping clothes and no magic pants (thank God!). If anyone knows if this guy has any animal TFs in the other episodes, please let me know.
TF here, around the 0:42 mark.

Zombie Loan (Werewolf Transformation)

So, episode 7 of Zombie Loan happens to feature a werewolf kid...
See him transform here. (The TF is at the 17:08 mark)

Wagaya no Oinari-sama (Werewolf Transformations)

(Edit: the original youtube links were removed, so I've replaced them with links from Dutch Bull's site.)

This anime just had a two-parter chock-full of werewolfy goodness!
First off, here's the first wolf-out, episode 21 (Dutch Bull mis-identifies the werewolf's gender).
And there's even more lycanthropic fun from episode 22, as you can see here, here and here.

Krypto the Superdog (Age Progression)

A short but cute age progression scene from the episode Growing Pains.
Scroll to the 3:40 mark.

Black Cat (Werewolf Transformation)

Here's a werewolf transformation from the manga Black Cat (Vol.09, Ch.76). Start reading here.

Speed Grapher (Werewolf Transformation)

Here's a short wolf transformation from the anime Speed Grapher, episode 24. Watch it here. The transformation is around the 5:35 minute mark.

Waking the Demon (Werewolf Transformation)

Sorry for the delay folks, but I'm back! First up, here's a little music video called "Waking the Demon." The werewolf looks rather dorky, and the TF is pretty short, but buggers can't be choosers.

Never Cry Werewolf (Werewolf Transformations)

Edit: the transformation scenes from the film can now be watched at Dutch Bull's terrific TF archive. Go here, here, and here.

Last Sunday the SciFi channel aired a new made-for-TV movie, Never Cry Werewolf. It wasn't all that bad, and though the budget was too low to allow for top-notch transformations (they even resorted to the old trick of cutting to the reaction of a horrified onlooker during the TF scene), we got the beginnings of two werewolf transformations.

There wasn't a single mention of Never Cry Werewolf on metamorphose.org, which has become almost useless to anyone who's interested in more than TG transformations (why don't they just rename the place transgendertf.org?). I actually raised this complaint on the site's board, only to be told that there wasn't many animal TFs around to take notice of. I think the truth is that there's plenty and it's being ignored.

Back to the movie:
Some folks have complained that Cry is just a rip-off of Fright Night, and there's no denying how derivative it is of the latter's plot. But I prefer to view Cry as a variation or inspired remake of FN, because it gets an awful lot of thematic mileage out of its variations. Here the evil neighbor is an attractive male werwolf who lusts after the heroine, who's surrounded by males who are either threatening or ineffectual. The threat is not merely physical but sexual too. That's emphasized by having both of the men attracted to her turning into werewolves. And as the villainous werewolf neighbor, Peter Stebbings turns in a good, seethingly sexual performance--you can understand why the heroine would be attracted to his animal charisma against her will.

Oh, as for the other werewolf, he's played by Sean O'Neil, who is younger and cuter than Stebbings. Unfortunately, after a promising-looking beginning to his transformation, he turns into a freakish bug-eyed mutant thing who has very little resemblance to any lycanthrope I've seen. Still, the fragments of TF scenes that we have are enough to tide me over, and for once we got a werewolf film with two cute guys transforming in it!

Jumanji (Various Animal Transformations)

Jumanji the movie featured one of the characters, a young boy named Peter, turning into a monkey. The animated series followed up on this by turning Peter into all sorts of things (that's the glory of animation--transformation scenes don't require an FX budget). No wonder TF fans like me were so fond of the show. The only problem was that it was hard to find and wasn't repeated very often. But now you can watch nearly every episode to your heart's content, thanks to a kind fellow on Youtube. His videos are here.
As for which to watch? Well, here's a little TF guide:

Ep.01: Peter turns into a monkey.
Ep. 02: Peter turns into a turtle.
Ep.03: Peter turns into a mask.
Ep.06: Peter turns into a toucan.
Ep.07: Peter turns into a statue.
Ep.08: Peter turns into a miniature replica of the hunter Van Pelt.
Ep.10: Peter turns into a boar.
Ep.12: Peter turns into a frog
Ep. 21: Peter turns into a skunk, and various townspeople turn into an elephant, rhino, bear, warthog, fox, lizard
Ep.29: Peter turns into a salamander.
Ep. 36: Peter undergoes age progression.
Enjoy!

Welcome

This blog is devoted to listing, examining, and reviewing male transformation scenes in the media. That includes transformation scenes in movies, TV shows, comics, and internet art. This blog exists because, as far as I can tell, there isn't one like it. The TF community leans predominately toward female transformations, and this blog is an attempt to restore some balance.
