My thoughts on Omniverse after I've given it some time
The Good
- Rook is a very interesting character his interactions with Ben may be the best part of the show
- Redesigns of aliens look good, fitting for the particular animation
- The show doesn't hold your hand with the aliens, you never know who will show up and they don't shout their names. Long time Ben 10 fans appreciate this
-Different voice actors for aliens make them more diverse, (I'm sure Dee Baker appreciates)
-They handled Grampa Max well by giving him an underground base Plumber base as his status quo (but seriously, no eyes?!)
-New Omnitrix looks cool
-New aliens are creative (except Shocksquatch)
-flashbacks give the show an entertaining dynamic
The Bad
- the New Omnitrix is super annoying. I don't find the accidental transformations funny. Seriously, Ben has been doing this for years now and is well aware of his wide range of aliens. The writers can stop using the "Humongousaur" gag, it's tired.
- Another New Omnitrix complaint, Ben should be able to choose when he times out. People like seeing him in his alien forms, hear them talk. It's a letdown when Ben only stays alien for less than a minute.
- Khyber and his pet are good villains, but it annoys me that they are the main villain. I never feel like Ben's in trouble because I know there's like a million ways he can get out of any situation. Aggregor, Vilgax, Highbreed, Ghostfreak, even Daggon, all good villains because they were more powerful than Ben.
-The flashbacks are great except for one thing. They totally trashed Gwen. Ben and Gwen fighting was funny, but it was also good to see them working together. I was glad Ashely johnson did Gwen in "Trouble Helix," but god was she unpleasant! She was really whiny
