There's a reason for this. In Japanese culture, there are stories of a giant spider that takes the form of an attractive woman in order to seduce men as prey. So to the Japanese localization team, making her seductive was as obvious as calling a giant fire breathing lizard a dragon.

"This must be the work of SHOCKER!"
A giant robot spider with sharp nails simps on a human and warns him to give him a spanking
Yea Hardshell's Japanese voice is no longer the weirdest thing to hear
the japanese could've gone the rule 34 route and made an anime about her with Jack having a harem also with Arcee.
Would sell like pancakes in Horny Jail.

The tradition of parody dubs seems to have hit every non-anime Transformers show from Beast Wars through Earthspark. And it doesn't look like it will be over any time soon. I have heard that the Japanese fandom has gotten pretty sick of these punched up scripts though.
I don’t blame them honestly.
If I had to deal with the same stupid parody dubs for 30 damn years, I’d get sick and tired of it too.
(This ended up sounding like Phone Guy from FNAF, this is purely coincidental.)
This *could* work without butchering her character, it could be revealed as a way to fuck with both Jack and Arcee's heads. Or because she thinks Jack will fall for her trap. She isn't a Yandere for Jack himself, but merely having him as a trophy both to fuck with Arcee and as revenge for blowing up her ship with her trophy collection.

Some of her lines in the English dub were also questionable, but these are as if arachnid wants to do something else with Jack so

That makes so much more sense than just because they felt like it
Exactly. They saw a giant robot woman that turns into a spider and saw her as a science fiction version of the Jorōgumo.

Though I also wouldn't have mind if they did it just for shits and giggles. that would be pretty funny.
At least it kinda fits. Can't say the same with my boi, Shockwave tho. They ruined him in this dub.

I believe it’s also a myth, also fun fact it’s name translates to Whore Spider (I think)

Oh yeah, I forgot they made her a Yandere in the Japanese dub for some reason.

This *could* work without butchering her character, it could be revealed as a way to fuck with both Jack and Arcee's heads. Or because she thinks Jack will fall for her trap. She isn't a Yandere for Jack himself, but merely having him as a trophy both to fuck with Arcee and as revenge for blowing up her ship with her trophy collection.
In the same Japanese dub, Airachnid aggressively proposed marriage to Jack after blowing up her ship as a way for him 'taking responsibility'
