Kevin is voiced by Greg Cipes, who's the voice Beast Boy in Teen Titans and Young Justice. Pretty much all of Ben's aliens are voiced by Dee Bradley Baker, who's the voice of the Clones in The Clone Wars, and Appa and Momo in Avatar: The Last Airbender.

I wish people would stop spreading that head-canon/fan theory as canonical fact, no where in the series or by a member of the writing crew is that ever stated.

[@DipolarJet3]

@@Andrew-Bastin The only real "proof" I can find that it is the original Omnitrix is a pop-up from the episode saying that "the Omnitrix will transform itself as Ben gets older, giving him more control and access to more aliens." That *seems* to imply that it's the original. There is also pop-up trivia that says the reason Ben 10,000 acts the way he does is because of something that happened when he was 15. Considering Ben is 16 in Omniverse, we can say that is no longer a possible future, or at least not caused by the same thing it originally was.

[@Andrew-Bastin]

@@DipolarJet3 the thing with the pop ups are that they are only “sorta” canon, the episodes weren’t made with them in mind and many of them were retroactively added after the fact, not to mention a lot of them were retconned by later series. Also the changing as Ben ages could easily apply to the later Omnitrix and the writers have said that they retconned Ben loosing his joy from 15 years old to 20 years old.

2 things: 1. Very happy I got to watch 2 Ben 10 reactions today (the other being part 1 of the movie) 2. Surprised they connected Kevin to Creel since most people don’t seem to know the Absorbing man, so that’s very cool

[@TheNightTyrant]

Different people like different Ben 10 shows and my favorite is Ben 10 Alien Force. 1- Long-term plot: right at the start of episode when we have a proper plot in the original series the formula was villain of the week however here we have a plot straight out of the gate. 2-Maturity: then I was young I used to think that this characters are boring because their behaving like adults but the characters have maturity you can literally see the way that Ben talks that he has grown up into a responsible hero and that is exactly what we want. 3- character development: right from episode 1 we can see that Ben now has to take the situation in his own hands as there is a growth in character for all of these main protagonist and trust me if you and up reaching next series Ultimate Alien you're going to realize how much this character growth matters it may not be consistent but it sure as hell is pretty impressive. This Ben 10 series was directed by Dwayne McDuffie who work alongside of the man of action team and he bring his superhero formula which he worked on show such as Static shock and Spider-Man here into Ben 10 giving the show in mature and almost a marvel and DC type of feeling. The more you're going to watch the more you're going to enjoy Ben 10 Alien Force.

I always liked how most of Ben's aliens in Alien Force were amalgamations of his previous ones. Swampfire being a good example, a combo of Heatblast and Wildvine.

[@chrisa.2323]

The best part about leaving the original series behind... We don't have to anticipate the "Gwen and Max are a useful part of the team that Ben has to appreciate" plot for the 17th episode in a row.

[@muhammadhabibieamiro3639]

Two ben 10 episode drop on the same day amazing

[@WiseGaines]

Kevin is voiced by Greg Cipes, not Dante

[@montanabruce2482]

I remember when this show was coming when I was a kid, the hype was so real and it was an event every week when a new episode came out. True part of my childhood.

[@LeonardoKlotz]

(13:50) This was the moment that made me fall in love with this series Swampfire remains my favorite alien of the entire franchise

[@jaylenharris343]

It's either him or echo echo for me.

[@erikpng]

Oh especially the transformation with the growing cgi skeleton! So creative! Ok, that aside the moment is pretty great. Wait, why is there a black void behind Swampfire?

[@LeonardoKlotz]

@@erikpng who knows, artistic choice? Also, I don't think those bones were CGI

[@erikpng]

@@LeonardoKlotz nah laziness. Could have shown a cool transformation but instead gave us a placeholder of sorts. Cause later on we do get actual cool transformations

[@LeonardoKlotz]

@@erikpng oh, I didn't realize you were being sarcastic this whole time

[@MRbug_423]

So, one of the new perks with the recalibrated Omnitrix is that there is no time limit. Ben can stay as an ailen for as long as he can if he has energy

[@ImperfectXIII]

I hope they follow/react to the series long enough to get to Omniverse.

[@Tekologic]

yeah i know its not loved as much but the animation is soooo much smoother

[@erikpng]

​@@Tekologicheck, one of the best looking shows CN has ever put out. The OV hate is sort of a thing of the past. Just hoping there aren't buttholes who won't vote for it intentionally. But the comments here are generally pro OV so hopefully we'll get it.

[@davidofthedead]

I'm so fucking happy we're here. Alien Force and Ultimate Alien are peak Ben 10 and I can't wait to continue this journey with you guys :)

[@AutumnWoodham]

"That's Dante" No, it's Greg Cipes, AKA Beast Boy.

[@hydrahunter8740]

So glad your watching Alien Force this is gonna be a wild ride

[@madladdie7069]

This isn't that obvious but the show has already diverged from the Ben 10,000 future. One of the theories for that is that since Ben met his future self, his future will turn out different. Future Ben doesn't remember going to the future when he was 10 so the timeline already diverged when the time-travel happened. Stuff like Grandpa Max getting a birthday cake at the end of that episode or the Omnitrix getting an update in this are also points of difference.

[@axelnilsson5124]

And in the Classic future Ben never removed the omnitrix

[@madladdie7069]

@@axelnilsson5124 That is... kind of obvious I think?

[@hamzahax]

LET'S GO! Welcome to Peak Ben 10

[@Aj_Central]

The first original aliens are locked away due to the recalibration of the omnitrix which gave him 10 new aliens and more to unlock Plus the omnitrix has millions of alien dna so he has way more

[@axelnilsson5124]

They don’t know about the 1,000,900 yet

[@whiskyfiasco]

Finally! I've been waiting when we'll get to Alien Force. By far my favourite season

[@BeastForce141]

Let’s go! Alien Force is well written show in Season 1-2. Alien Force intro for me it’s the best and it fits the vibe. Ben Tennyson is very well developed in Season 1-2, as you see him, what has he become since Classic Series.

[@theamazingspooderman2697]

contestant of what?

[@kade6070]

one of the best first episodes of any kids show ever, just so satisfying and fun and tense and really makes you wanna uncover the whole story

[@britishninja]

Alot of people jump to Dante basco but its actually Beast Boy

[@roxtechs]

I don’t really hear Dante Basco at all since it’s Beast Boy actor.

[@captainannie322]

Omg. Thank you guys for voting and continuing this series!!

[@TheMinecraftAvatar]

this is by far the best of the main series

[@axelnilsson5124]

Especially the intro

Yuri Lowenthal, our new voice of Ben, has previously been Sasuke, Icicle Jr. and Lagoon Boy from Young Justice, and Spider-Man from the PlayStation game. And Kevin isn’t Dante Basco, he’s Greg Cipes, aka Beast Boy

I was so shocked that HBO shows the aliens in the intro so early. I remember when they premiered the blacked out all the aliens until they appeared

[@georgethehernandez]

My fave iteration of the franchise; especially the first two seasons. Season 3 I have mixed feelings towards. But I love it still.

[@GuessedV]

Wow that was fast finally arrived at alien force

[@edgardelugo1733]

Sasuke, Ellie, and Beastboy teaming up! Love to hear Terra and Beastboy's voice actors working together again. Alien Force gets all the VAs for the main Teen Titans except Tara Strong (Raven) who voiced the original Ben.

[@urbanburrow9286]

As someone who is also experiencing all of this for the first time, after binge watched classic Ben 10, watching Alien Force is possibly the largest amount of tonal whiplash I've experienced that leads to a positive result. It's wild how different the show is and still works in the same world established before. super looking forward to seeing future reactions and continuing the journey myself

[@yasser3268]

Kevin is not voiced by Dante Basco, it may sound like him but still not him, that was Greg Cipes who voiced Beast Boy In Teen Titans

[@axelnilsson5124]

Now I’m just imagining Kevin saying that he needs to capture the avatar for honor

[@jeffbrehove2614]

Have Basco and Cipes ever did voicework on a project together? That'd be a fun game of who's who.

[@bluesavior2445]

To everyone who voted for alien force thank you so so much
