"but what if more people were here for these reactions, ya know?" really depends on the crew at the end of the day. Let's be real here, it's not like covering a series that 1. isn't currently running as of now (tho I wouldn't be surprised if we got an announcement this year) 2. that is varied in quality and fan reception, to such a point that many were turned off by the reboot 3. targeting a more 20's-30's demographic's nostalgia, instead of the more lucrative teen/children's market. are optimal from a views/revenue point of view. So to some extent the entire team is doing this out of a love more than the potential money to be gained covering other, more recent action shows/movies. but in terms of views: the breakdowns are mid. not the highest viewed stuff compared to one offs like top 10's, theorycrafting, or "how does X work", but they are consistent content to put out (at least for a long while)

Ben pretending to have turned to test Max’s team is a great way to use the hero to villain trope in a relatively underused way. No half assed defection excuse, possession, evil twin or morality inversion device, and it serves a purpose beyond let’s make the hero evil. Ben in this episode feels the closest to his pre-season three characterisation and given the personality shift that’s for the better even though it will only last a short time. Minor niggle is that the facing a crisis to learn teamwork trope is overdone, and you’d think by now Max’s team would have learned that since they’ve been working together for two season’s worth of episodes now, and teamed up with Team Tennyson numerous times. Helen, Manny and Pierce worked with Max in the Null Void fighting Dr Animo.

I....honestly didn't realize that THIS was this episode. I haven't watched the series in a while, so I'm not familiar with the names, but I remember never particularly caring about the plumbers helpers. Like, they're good characters, but I remember never really caring for the episodes. But if I'd realized THIS was the episode the pill was referring to, well...despite that it wouldn't have made much of a difference, I would've voted differently

It looks like ben doesnt even need the omnitrix in the first place since hes perfectly capable of evading them without turning into an alien

[@GodsDissapointment]

One of my favorite parts of the episode is that with the twist in mind you can go back and appreciate how much detail the animators put in making Ben do subtle changes to his movements to weaken his attacks and not severely hurt any of the attacks. Best example is the last fight with Humongasuar where Ben misses attacks he could have easily hit or when he has to hit them he makes sure they land somewhere free or debris or toward another teammate to catch them. Small things like that are why i love this series.

I can't believe you didn't mention Goop doing a literal FNAF jumpscare part way through the episode

[@debraj2003]

Tbh this was one of my favorite episodes of Alien Force, Ben as a Villain was so great to watch

[@infamousplayer8772]

I look back to this episode everytime Omniverse makes Ben out to be an incompetent idiot. It's an actual curse.

[@kermitgotthesickkicks4265]

Lol the funny thing is ben being an idiot isn't out of character with how inconsistent he is.

[@WhyNot-yy5wz]

I like these quick reviews , they’re condensed but just as entertaining

[@parkercomley8126]

When I first saw this I was racking my brain to figure out what was going on with Ben (Albedo, Z'skayr taking over)? The Max force was great, we should have gotten more of them and this is the last episode Pierce is in before he dies. Please do Vendetta the continuity needs to analyzed.

[@gpfhantom1890]

I love this fucking Episode. It showed how threatening Ben can be if he chooses to

[@iridiumSerpent]

This is probably my favourite episode and I noticed there’s something about Ben’s voice sounds more hollow when he’s acting and it definitely made me feel scared for the helpers the first time I watched it

[@frshootingstar08]

Ngl I didn’t even know this episode exists, I went to watch it and it was great, I love when Ben gets “evil”

[@christianparrish6647]

wall of sound will always be my favorite echo echo power move.

[@lucaschannel726]

Excited for the final episode review of alien force :) I love the 2 part season 3 finale!!! Especially the introduction to ultimatrix and ultimate aliens!!! Ultimate aliens is my favorite of Ben 10 and if given the chance I would go for the ultimatrix as my watch of choice :) (No joke I actually made 2 entire au with ultimate aliens in omniverse. One where ben kept ultimatrix v1 and another where ben got the ultimatrix v2 instead of albedo.)

[@AFCN7]

I think its a pity Ben 10 never fully endorsed an Evil Ben as a proper villain. I know Vilgax had that plan in Omniverse, but they were never developed and even Evil I doubt Ben would ever willingly side with Vilgax. Imagine an Evil Ben with all his knowledge of the world, his aliens and most importantly, how exactly to hurt Prime Ben (Target his family, his home etc) It would have been sick.

[@WingGT79]

This is one of my favorite episodes from AF, i really loved the fight scenes between Big Chill and Alan

[@San-ux8kf]

Never ask the community to choose what episode should get full breakdown

[@smexygodzilla5214]

A fun idea, every time grandpa Max finds a new team he sets up a similar test and asks one of the trio to act as the villain. Imagine a new set of recruits having to deal with an evil Gwen or a mutated Kevin

[@Quillobyte_]

They somehow made GOOP scary. Fukin GOOP.

[@redraccoon3412]

This also proves that Ben can in fact act, and lie really well, which is good for fanfiction

[@jchadwick4918]

Damn, I haven’t seen this one! Kinda glad about the shorter review, gonna go watch it now. Thanks Kuro!

[@_V.Va_]

So what you're saying is Ben should be the new Grandpa Max if there were a soft reboot to take place. I dig it.

[@RadiantClaire]

This is the first breakdown to get me to go watch it myself and honestly this episode was fantastic. Genuinely one of my favorite experiences with the franchise I’ve ever had. Definitely a episode i wanna rewatch in the future ❤️

[@DonniedrakoE]

Really wish this got the full breakdown since as you said this is one of my favorite overall episodes of all four shows.

[@ravindupadmanath2802]

Wish we got more from these guys. It also really sucks that pierce had to die later on in UA.

[@endamcnabola]

The last episode where Zeno Robinson voiced Alan. This character was pretty much his first role.
