show was legitimately creepy at times. had the aesthetic sense of a horror movie at times (with the greenish look to a lot of the backgrounds and desaturated colors, and the honestly creepy and ugly aliens) and it helped it stand out. sometimes it even reminded me of some of those ugly-ass 90s Nickelodeon shows, but obviously more superhero-y and actiony. its even more apparent with some of the creepy-gross concept art. that creepy look was eventually dropped it in the sequel shows, which is feel is a bit of a shame.

I'm just spitballing ideas here, but there are ways to make that work. Hell, Hey Arnold never needed a real reason why those equally young kids just wandered an entire city with zero problem all the time and it was ironically one of the most grounded cartoons ever made.

It's amazing that they took that show and turned it into all the world building in the sequel shows.

I’m 90% certain that wasn’t Intended to be a white if until alien force that episode ends with Ben’s parents finding out about the Omni tricks but an alien force their none the wiser at least until halfway through the season. If it wasn’t for the parents not knowing about the Omni tricks in alien force this episode would fit perfectly within canon, as for Mel galaxies survived much worse like at the beginning of the series.

Kevin Levin's first episode, Season 1 finale, and the Ghostfreak episode stand out to me the most and it's so nice to see how much Alien Force grows from this beginning.

Ben 10 came out at the perfect time for me too, as I was around 11 in 2005, the transformations and stories were pretty cool, coming from the late Dwayne McDuffie, a seasoned comic book and TV writer responsible for several episodes of the Justice League animated series and the original Teen Titans and having co-created Static Shock. I mean, my online monicker is even a tribute to Ben 10 itself, I've been carrying the name for years name.

The aliens on this show were really well designed. Stinkfly, Greymatter, and Wildmutt were my personal favorites, and no one else seemed to love em as much as I did. I was bit older when the show came out but it had that anime action that I was a fan of. So it managed to capture my attention despite not being in the target demographic. I remember geeking out about the newer aliens as they came out with my younger cousins. I think that's why I loved it, it allowed me to bond with them.

I'm glad this series is getting more attention it deserves it honestly. Back in 2019 is when I was introduced to the series by my boyfriend and before that I was pretty meh about the show and didn't think much about it before. However threw a contest of creating your own alien design for a fan webcomic series called 5 years later, it helped me to slowly get into the series. With that first 2 episodes I was hooked on it, and the days where me me and BF Alex would binge threw the whole series all the way up to Ben 10 omniverse. We had many happy memories watching it together and many dumb inside jokes we would make as well. It was a cartoon that I needed back then something to escape to when life got a bit too much at times.
