Last month I discussed the fact that many European cartoons with decent transformation scenes never air in America, a very frustrating situation for the TF enthusiast. One example is Mission Odyssey, a cartoon based on Homer's masterwork. Of course, no retelling of the Odyssey is complete without Circe, and episode 5 features her and several animal transformations. Sadly, the pig TFs take place offscreen, but enjoy the following in their place.

Kappa Mikey (Monster Transformation)
Kappa Mikey was a cartoon spoof of several types of anime, though the title character was a generic American superhero. In "The Night of the Werepuff" (Season 02, Episode 15), Mikey is bitten by a "werepuff," and on the full moon turns into a very puffy, hair-covered weremonster who likes to eat people's clothes. I've edited together two of his transformations, along with some clothes-munching scenes. The second is better than the first, though everything is animated in cheap-looking flash.
P.S. In case you missed it, Dutchbull updated his wonderful site earlier this month. Among the many riches on display are the transformation scenes from the Spanish werewolf horror comedy Lobos De Arga, made with old-fashioned prosthetics and guys in suits. The throwback approach works far better than almost any CGI transformation you can think of.

Generator Rex (Werewolf Transformation)
Despite being about nanobytes changing characters' bodies, the transformations I've seen in the cartoon Generator Rex have mostly been disappointing. The episode "Night Falls" (Season 02, Ep.13) is no exception, despite being about a group of werewolf-like creatures in Mexico.
The epsiode can be viewed here. There's a reversion scene at the 10:20 mark, though it mostly consists of two close-ups. At the 14:44 mark a character starts to transform and grows a furry mane and pointed ears. At 20:31 the character reverts back to human, but in a long shot (and of course all his clothing magically reappears from nowhere). All in all, slim pickings, but I'll see if any other episodes are of interest...

Datarom (Dragon, Crow, Wolf Transformations)
The webcomic Datarom! dates from a few years ago, and featured a few transformation scenes rendered in cartoony style.
In the first, a weredragon is transformed into a more feral form, as seen here.
Second comes a werewolf TF, starting here and ending here.
Third, a bird-man turns into a monstrous crow TF, as seen here.
Note: the artist later went on to a comic called Furthia High. If anyone knows of any TF scenes in it, please let me know.

Transient Pulse (Werewolf Transformation)
(This is a re-run of a formerly deleted post.)
The strange webcomic Transient Pulse contains a sort of were-squirrel transformation, found here.
Note: the "previous" and "next" buttons on this comic are reversed in function.
P.S. On an unrelated note, the link for the webcomic Paranormal Mystery Squad has been fixed.
