Interesting touch on the producers’ part.Įven if they didn’t use a whole lot of aliens, the animators did also go the extra mile in recreating the previous designs for the each of the aliens the alternate Bens used.

Speaking of characterization, this was AF Ben’s reaction to Alternate Max’s criticism of reboot Ben, calling him out for being, as he said, “a stubborn brat.” Personally I think that’s a little harsh, but regardless, it’s almost as if he knows what that’s like, or something. And, UA Ben came in obviously much more sure of himself, which is also consistent with the transition from season three of Alien Force to his rise to fame during Ultimate Alien. I don’t know if anyone else picked up on this, but - characterization consistency with the previous shows! AF Ben was written decently serious like his “mature” self (as the fandom loves to praise him for being). Media like this is made for the people who will watch it, after all. Rather than including any other side themes people are divided on. AKA, characters like Kai Green (especially her relationship with Ben), or even the way Gwen and Kevin were portrayed in everything following the OS (including their eventual romance).Īs such, the special stuck to its roots and gave us something purely “Ben 10”: action-packed and focusing on family bonds.

I bring this up because a lot of newer characters and character dynamics introduced in the later installations of the series weren’t always well received. I’d even say specifically the “fan favourites.” I also can’t help but notice they included a limited amount of characters.

It’s a compromise that satisfies everyone. It gave, at least me, a sense of closure, even though I feel Omniverse’s final episode, “A New Dawn”, had tried to do that, as well.Īnyway, in doing that, they brought back the original continuity, in honor of what the fans wanted, but the main focus was still on the three main characters (Ben, Gwen, and Max) - something that I’ve heard a lot of the fandom say was their favourite thing about the series when it first started: going on a family road trip with the occasion alien adventure.Īgain, giving the people what they want, while remaining within the confines of what Cartoon Network or the higher ups probably directed them to do with the new series. For instance, confirming what I’ve been saying all this time! And effectively knocking down certain misconceptions about unfinished or uncertain topics left behind in the previous show. To begin with the obvious, emphasis being made on the existence of the Omniverse (something I feel like the majority hadn’t paid enough attention to during and after the last iteration) was important for several reasons. In short, while the Ben 10 Reboot isn’t without faults, “Alien X-Tinction” did everything it could to pay tribute to what came before it, and why the Ben 10 Reboot could even be anywhere near successful for it’s intended audience and for modern age of Cartoon Network.
