Reason #1 should simply be "and then there were none"/"and then there was ben". Some of the best episodes in the whole series imo

[@N.I.A23]

I'd argue this ep had the most influence on the entire fanbase. Just look at how many alternate omnitrix/bens fanarts and videos you can find on the Internet (ben 79 being one of the most popular) Honestly, who saw those episodes and didn't fantasize about owning an omnitrix with his fav colours??

Nah, that doesn't work. Don't get me wrong, these *were* good episodes (and I'm saying this as someone who hates most of OV), but people could just watch these two episodes and not bother with the rest of the series, so that's hardly a reason to watch it all.

I remember when Omniverse was first coming out I kinda didn't like him (even before the series started cuz I was sad Gwen and Kevin were "gone"). And sadly I fell off Ben 10 before I actually watched like 90% of Omniverse (mostly because of the awful airing times). But I did actually watch the entire series a few years back (rewatch from OG to UA and basically first Omniverse and Reboot watch) and Omniverse is now my favourite series and Rook is now probably my fav main team character that's alongside Ben. He's just so good

Just the opening arc alone shows how much the show expands on usage of aliens by introducing the Nemetrix, giving each of Ben’s aliens a predator species. This helps immensely with worldbuilding too, showing how the biology and ecosystems for Ben’s aliens work and how they develop creatures to counter the abilities of Ben’s roster members.

the predator plotline doesn't really make sense tho. I mean real life animals are not defenseless against their predators, it's usually a relatively fair matchup.

Omniverse really felt like the Ben 10 team figured out the balance between the seriousness of early AF and the fun of the OG with a lot of new charm and improvements. It wasn't perfect but was my favorite among the prime series. Also I Rook so much. Ben having a pure alien partner who doesn't have any powers and is just a really good fighter was amazing. Rook even improved on the trio dynamic (IMHO). In my ideal world Omniverse would have gotten a final continuation series with the trio along with Rook embarking on a year long trip across the universe for Ben's 18th birthday (and maybe Max along for the ride).

[@Theokal3]

I.... don't really get that. Technically speaking there was no balance; regardless of the quality itself, Omniverse was way goofier than *either* AUF or the Original Series.

[@SamirSiraj8542]

​@@Theokal3when did it got cartoonish?

[@sancho608]

I’ll try and break it down as best I can. So after UAF, Ben has so much battle experience and he just wants to have as normal a life as he possibly can get. At this point, the events in classic seem like a relief for him compared to what he had to deal in UAF. Also, he’s now very popular and also most importantly, he has a new watch with all his aliens he ever had and more to use. His character is also I’ve been here done it before type of thing so nothing fazes him too much. He is living a bit of his classic series life with his UAF experience. The show also emphasizes that he’s just 16 not a grown adult as UAF made them seem at times. All this combined with the fact we often see younger Ben which reminds us how much prime ben has grown but is still a kid makes me appreciate omniverse so much

[@Theokal3]

@@SamirSiraj8542 You mean where did it *not* get cartoonish? For starter, most of the quirky comic relief characters such as Pax, Rad Dudesman, or Blucick and Driba would look rather out of place in the original show. Same for some Aliens such as Molestache and Bloxx. Or small details like the aliens feeling Undertown in Frogs of War having for some reason their baggage *outside* their ships. Even when it got silly (such as the Chrismas and Megawatt episode), the OG Ben 10 usually kept something of a grounded angle, which I feel isn't very present in OV. When I watch the Original Series, I feel like I'm watching a world relatively like ours, only with crazy silver age stuff going on. When I watched OV, it feels more like I'm watching something akin to Looney Tunes.

Omniverse came out at a time where i stopped watching TV and basically replaced it with KZbin. I believe i caught only the first season, i definitelly remember watching the whole "Alien X reconstructs the universe" bit. I thought it was fine, i liked it was more vibrant and colorful than the previous two shows, but i didn't think much of it at the time. It wasn't until recent years, thanks to your History of Ben 10 videos, that reawakened my interest in the series, and motivated me to finally watch OV till the end. It was a rollercoaster of emotions, some seasons way better than the others, but incredibly enjoyable all throuought, and i would have missed out on it if it weren't for your work.

[@acmeanvil3022]

Well said man. While I still have my issues with Omniverse, such as the the Kevin retcons and everything regrading Ben's "harem", I've definitely grown to appreciate it a lot more overtime. The series has by far my favourite overall aesthetic of all five series (barring a few redesigns) and is definitely a step up in terms of animation quality and environment design from UA. The cast of new characters introduced alongside returning faces help to make the feel the universe so much more alive, and overall it's just the easiest show in the original continuity to just put on, kick back and have fun with.

[@Omnigreen]

Always loved Omniverse the most, from the first episode I saw in 2012, was in love in the vibrant art-style and character designs especially.

[@Chef740]

I really like that Omniverse shows plenty of transformations in each episode unlike the original series and UAF which would usually limit themselves to 1-2 transformations each episode. Really liked that Omniverse made the limiter a much less used story tool, making it really common for Ben to leave a transformation and go right into another form right after.

[@ZachFrost]

I am currently about halfway through watching Omniverse for the first time and I absolutely love it. As someone who is watching the entire saga in a pretty short amount of time, I honestly feel like it's cohesive and Ben's character development feels natural to me. I know a lot of people disagree with that, but I think it's important to remember that Ben in UA is nearly identical to OV. He can be a little obnoxious at times, but who at that age isn't? Especially when they are the most famous person on the planet with the most powerful weapon in the universe. I also don't mind the artstyle. It's not as good as the original series or UAF, but it is very vibrant and I enjoy it a lot. Rook is a great addition, as well. I thought I was not going to like him at first, but he's actually a really good balance to Ben's over-enthusiasm. Overall, it's an excellent show, and I would highly recommend it. Great video, btw!

Also it wasn't just Alien X that got an incredible feet, Way Big got an awesome feet when he matched and surpassed the blast of an Incursion Conquest Ray, firmly solidifying him as a Planet level threat, also Ben definitively directly killed every Incursion on that vessel since only the emperor escaped the blast.

[@nerdynicholas]

That omniverse breakdown intro is sick!!! I personally love omniverse. The music is great and it’s overall a fun time while still supplying great storylines. The “omniverse war” is the best depiction of the multiverse I’ve seen.

[@hi-centhusiast1867]

when i finally watch OV when you guys started your breakdowns 2 years ago it quickly became my favorite ben 10 series as well as the one with the most memorable moments its truly an amazing conclusion to Ben Prime, it gave me a new appreciation for ben 10 that i had slowly been falling out of whenever i thought back to the end of UA

[@raithblitz8221]

[@mayotango1317]

@@shriramka8061 If you compare him to the Ben from the "Ben 10/Generator Rex: Heroes United" crossover, written by his creator Man of Action, the Omniverse Ben is an exaggerated flanderization of the kid Ben but without his redeeming qualities that made him tolerable.

I know that you have been counting miss transformations but even that has been shown under a different light in omniverse. If you pay attention to the faceplate you can sometimes just watch him choose the wrong alien. Which I think is a very unique touch.

[@itsmohdmustafa]

Omniverse has the best storylines, ost, and dialogues. Tell me a better line than "It's just a gadget, be the hero"

[@-ism8153]

Omniverse is definitely very inconsistent in its quality, but, after liking the original series for a while, I eventually pretty definitively landed on Omniverse as my favorite. Its heights are great, and the scifi world built on its past exposures to aliens is unrivaled fun.

[@raymondyongho5757]

My favorite thing about Omniverse would definitely have to be the redesign of some of Ben's aliens such as Shocksquatch, Diamondhead, and Four Arms.

[@theamazingspooderman2697]

found another one who likes Four Arms design, onr thing I like the most is this Four Arms started growing spikes on his shoulder too, just like his future version

[@StigmaKRL]

I actually hated Diamondhead's redesign, the arms are too long and it looks super lanky, Fourarms too, looks less buff compared to his previous designs, but somehow the forearms are extremely buff, not a fan of the moustache too Shocksquatch is ok, but I despise his accent

[@calvinmatthews1527]

OV is definitely worth watching. I've watched it from beginning to end and yea, what Kuro says is true. Sure, there's a few episodes or moments that are off-putting for a lot of old fans but it also has some of the best scenes & arcs in the prime continuity. Also, it might have the best ending of all four series.

[@officialasa]

I’ve been a HUGE Omniverse hater for YEARS, ever since it came out when I was 10… just started rewatching it and I’m fucking loving it. Thank you for making this video.

[@officialasa]

Almost finished now. Just got done with the Servantis arc. What a ride

[@lmao6331]

I watched the original series when I was a kid and Omniverse in my teen's, and I love Omniverse so much more than the original, I love Ben personality, Rook is such a good character and the stories were so cool to watch, and it has such a good art stlye, i love how dynamic everything looks

[@AntiVenomKnight]

Seriously can’t wait! I’m almost done with UAF on my rewatch but I’ve been looking forward to Omniverse the most. Love the breakdowns after I finish a batch of episodes. You always catch details I miss, especially in the animation.

[@minecraftsteve73]

As a Ben 10 fan and music nerd, I'm really happy you took the time to mention the music, specifically Ben's leitmotif. It's so satisfying to listen to in all its varied uses! Breaks my heart that we can't officially listen to them outside of the show.

[@lumino_life]

2:58 “So captivating it’s hard not to look away” I don’t think this makes sense correct me if I’m wrong. That aside, this video was an absolute treat and genuinely gave me chills thinking about how much I love Omniverse and the inspiration it’s given me as an artist. Can’t wait for the breakdowns!

[@GreyTrafficCone]

I was looking if someone else caught onto that before posting a comment. Yeah, that's definitely not right.

[@jairusjackson7799]

Omniverse was the only time I got teared up watching Ben 10. It was during the series finale and I won’t spoil what was, but as a long time fan it was a moment that I never knew I wanted. Omniverse has plenty of these moments, and is well worth the watch. It gives a lot of closure to the series

[@maxusgaming4871]

I think the 11nd reason to watch ben 10 Omniverse is that Ben's personality is at it's best. He's written more consistently and they capitalize on his best and worst traits and allow him to most importantly have FUN AGAIN! He becomes more relatable and acts and looks his age and just becomes more of a joy to watch on screen

[@theamazingspooderman2697]

I mean u heard the intro "He's a kid and he wants to have fun" "But when u need a superhero he gets the job done"

[@jbcatz5]

He’s called out when he needs to be, early on Rook does express his frustrations with Ben and he’s never invalidated for what he says.

The art style is actually what caused me to miss out on Omniverse, because it made me think they had _rebooted the show_ and we were back to 10-year-old Ben again (only for them to _actually_ reboot the show later on and in an actually TTG-style way). I'm looking forward to watching the breakdowns and finally fixing this gap in my knowledge of the series 👀

That's awesome! I've been doing that same thing. I finally gave it a chance and enjoyed majority of seasons 1-2. Looking forward to watching the rest.

The show that introduced me to this channel

[@lukethemankey3522]

The whole arc on Anur Transyl alone is one of my fave parts of Omniverse. The whole planet is wonderfully designed, and it's nice to see planets with multiple different yet similar alien species living on it as opposed to a "Planet of the Hats" style typically done. By sheer contrast, though, the Gourmands routinely eating their homeworld and then barfing off into the stars is simultaneously disgusting and beautiful.

Might watch these with my brother or something, that might be fun.

[@attilamateilonka5579]

And don't forget the fact that every episode have more transformation then the first 3 shows. I always love to watch Ben choosing an alien and then half a second later he is turning into Mole-Stache or Toepick or Humungousaur with so fluid animation that makes my eye teared up.

[@StigmaKRL]

yeah and the trade off? make some aliens , and ben by extension, look weak and incompetent usually he just turns into something, do 1 thing, get pummeled, forced to change back, then repeat with another alien. Rarely does his aliens feel like powerhouses compared to previous seasons, even when fighting against d-tier villains

I would catch the odd episode here and there or get a random DVD for a season of one of the previous shows, but it was Omniverse where I would consistently watch episodes week after week when they came out. This series is what truly got me into Ben 10 as a whole, so I'm glad videos like this exist to show what people are missing out on by overlooking it

[@AussieDragoon]

OV is my favorite series in Ben 10, I love its animation and I've always been a fan of the art after the sterile, action figure-like UAF art style. It also contains my favorite episode, "...And Then There Were None."

[@RaidensBoobies17]

Rook is well liked by Gwen that she gave him her spell book even though he has no magic or anodite skills which came handy in the Swampfire blossom episode

[@jbcatz5]

Swampfire puberty was a cool idea, and the aliens affecting Ben in his human form is never not interesting.

[@ravindupadmanath2802]

OV definitely has its fair share of flaws and had some controversial decisions outside form the art style. But when it takes risks, expands on something new or old and goes all out from the series. It's worth every moment as a Ben 10 fan to watch OV. See you next week on the OV Breakdown episodes.

[@dubbingsync]

A few years ago I caught a random episode of Omniverse and decided to give it a full watch through. Didn’t realise it wasn’t a full on reboot as I never really watched Alien Force or Ultimate Alien (I just randomly found the episode he unlocks Rath in on TV already one day) so had a huge block of missing information but still enjoyed the show.
