    I've noticed recently that a lot of people have been getting on people who don't like the reboot. Like look at the comment section on this video some people are going off on D.C. Network. I thought that the majority of Ben 10 fans don't like the reboot. It seems that the narrative has started to change over the past year or so.

    @cooljay7 Doesn't seem like that to me at least. Most of the comments seem to be in agreement of his video. I still find plenty of people that aren't favorable towards the reboot show either. Or really just Cartoon Network overall. At least in the US, ratings are still low. I recall hearing stories of a lot of kids not liking the show. Etc.

    This video certainly brought up something that really caught my attention. Omni-Enhancements are basically power armor. Omni-Kix are basically power armor. Now we have Omni-Nauts...which looks to be basically power armor. Really? Power armor? For the third time now? Is that really the extent that the team can do to try and "improve" and "innovate" the aliens? Plus, they keep taking elements from the previous shows (most often the Original Series) and using them in the reboot. After I saw the trailer to Ben 10 vs the Universe, the first thing that came to mind was, "They're rehashing Secret of the Omnitrix." It's like they've run out of original and creative ideas for the show.

    Yeah the video brings up some really good points. There was one guy who was going off on D.C. Network but the comments are now gone. Like the guy spammed the comments section with like 15 comments cursing out D.C. Network.

    @cooljay7 Sounds like a fanboy of the show or a Cartoon Network shill or whatever. I'm guessing that D.C. Network removed the comments because, as you said, the commenter spammed them out.

    @npzman Maybe. I don't think that Cartoon Network would want to ditch their most popular franchise forever but Ben 10 may have indeed gone on a longer hiatus had it not been for input from overseas, which is believable considering how CN treated Omniverse towards the end of its run. @cooljay7 this makes me wonder what the future of the series is from CNs point of view. They've tried to make the reboot to push their toy line which according to their recent lack of sales has not worked that well. Is it too much to hope that they will actually focus on making a good series over selling toys? I hope so.

    My theory is that this version of Max wasn't a Plumber himself, but someone who was familiar with the organisation. For me he's way too goofy and irresponsible (well at least compared with original Max) to actually be a Plumber. Still though, even if he only knew about them surely he would've tried to contact them when larger threats like Vilgax started to emerge in the reboot universe. Or at the least he could've told Ben and Gwen about them. Again, this detail seems more for fanservice than actual plot consistency.

    Is there any sign of Cartoon Network having a Renaissance of some sorts with regards to the types of shows which they start showing? Because it doesn't look that way at the moment with Teen Titans Go dominating the schedule, and it looks like the "comedy" format of shows is what generates the most money for CN and looks like that's what it will be like going forward, with the reboot sequel likely to follow suit. The reboot isn't the worst show on Cartoon Network and I don't wish to be a jerk and upset the people who enjoy it. I just believe that not only the long-time fans, but the kids too deserve better - heck, my little 9 year old brother think that the reboot "tries too hard to be funny and ends up being stupid" . Although his favourite series is Omniverse, he finds episodes of the original 2006 series way more enjoyable to watch than the reboot - and this is all without me suggesting to him at all that the reboot is not as good as the OS. Children aren't as stupid as CN seem to think and if they do make any kind of continuation I just hope that they treat their viewers with respect and allow the writers as much freedom as possible. I was having a discussion with someone on Reddit as to what would happen if they started showing Original Series reruns after the reboot ends, to which they said that the more detailed art style alone (and how it is different from most CN art styles nowadays) may catch the attention of kids and the story and charm of the original would do the rest. I've lurked around forums like this for a while so am familiar with @Tactical-Ochoa 's idea to make a new sequel to the original series exploring an alternate AF timeline and attempting to make the continuity more streamlined and improve on where the sequels slipped up (I believe that Alien Force, Ultimate Alien and Omniverse were all good shows in themselves but not good sequels). That could've really worked back in 2016 but I think that with the 2016 reboot wiping the slate clean it may confuse viewers as to which shows belong to which timelines. Reboots are fine since they give writers another shot at doing a show right. I'm sure that when Ben 10 started the creators didn't think of all their ideas from the beginning, and obviously with the retcons the original timeline became a bit messy. A Ben 10 reboot could've been the chance to fix those issues and create a smooth timeline by taking the best aspects from across the franchise and merging them into one. An example of a good reboot is one of my favourite comic series: "Ultimate Spider-Man" by Brian Michael Bendis (which I've mentioned here before - I am quite a big Spider-Man fan as well as a Ben 10 fan lol). Sure the comic re-interpreted a few characters and had a more grounded story, but in the end it kept true to the core themes of what makes Spider-Man such a good character which is why while not perfect, it was a great reimagining of the character. But unfortunately a lot of reboots these days seem to be more inclined to advertising toys and merch by using the name of the franchise to attract interest, and I hope that changes /wall of text over.

    Im getting used to gwens design little by little. Im still wondering whos voicing her. Max looks pretty good to thankfully they kept his red flower shirt in tact since it so iconic with the character.
