    I like the touch of Eon's arm having an Omnitrix that's almost completely covered by flesh. It not only makes not of the fact Eon only uses alternate versions of Ben as hosts now but that he still genetically alters them to fit his purposes. It's just really uncomfortable to think about since most Bens would still be kids, teens or young adults

    Each episode just keeps getting better. There are so many higlights in this episode, I can't put them all here because this comment would be insanely long, so here's some of them:
    - The extended fight of the Orion Squad vs Skulker
    -Skulker and Ember's debut, with the 5YL rendition of "Remember"
    - The new aliens from the commissions making their debut: Statter, Hack N' Slash, and Soap Reef
    - The heroes and villains powering up: Ben unleashing the Powerhouse Playlist first with our favorite resident walking nuclear power plant: Atomix, Danny getting stronger to counter, absorb, and redirect Vlad's attacks with his ice powers and Ghostly Wail together, Vlad reaching the point where he can fight in his human form, and Eon finally achieving the evolution he so desperately seeked all this time
    - Everything else from the extended scenes and added bonuses, Cooper effortlessly building the Ghost Portal, As- I mean Phil joining in on the fight, the fight against the Nanite-infected Bens, Jump Kick transforming into Planet Buster, there was so much epicness in this episode!
    Happy 20th Dannyversary, Danny Phantom.🫡
    Happy 7th Anniversary, 5 Years Later. 👽👻
    I can't wait for the next episode. But things are getting intense than ever before, so why don't we take a time out next time, shall we?
    Edit: Also, loved the new intro with Ben recalibrating into his Uniform Mode.

    I love that in every version of this chapter, Reboot Ben is in a different alien form. To run it down:
    - Archaic has Heatblast.
    - The official 5YL website has Rath.
    - Webtoon has Shock Rock.
    - Facebook has Overflow.
    - And now the Motion Comic has Slapback.
    They all even have their own dialogue, that's a great touch.

    Not gonna lie, I didn’t understand the hype around 5YL at first.
    This week I finally decided to sit down and watch the first 7 episodes, and I have to say, this is one of the best crossovers that I have ever seen.
    I love super heroes, and Ben 10 and Danny Phantom are both among my favorites. The story of 5YL, how the details of eco-energy and the time travel aspects are handled, it’s all perfection.
    Now today I get to watch the climactic battle between good and evil for the first time along with everyone else.
    I don’t know all the details of what goes on behind the scenes, but as someone who wants to work on their own large scale animation project, I can only imagine all the time, love, and care that has gone into this project.
    The music, the art, the dialogue. It’s all amazing. I applaud you Ink Tank, and salute everyone who has been a part of this masterpiece!

    *Idk where to start with how fucking amazing this episode was.*
    *First Off: Skuller coming back wasn't something I was expecting, but God it was awesome. He was one of my favorite DP villains, so him coming back was epic to see. Not only that, but HE'S DATING Ember?! A power couple I wasn't expecting to see, but still awesome.*
    *Second: I'm really enjoying the dynamic between Danny and Vlad and how he's pushing Phantom to act more like him. Another detail I noticed, is that when Danny was using his power, his ears became pointed and his face appeared to change to a green color, he almost looked like Dark Danny. I wonder if Danny deep down, has that darkness within him that makes him more violent. As much as he doesn't want to admit it, he is becoming more like Vlad to some extent and it will be interesting seeing Danny having to rely on that darkness.*
    *Third and possibly my favorite aspect about this episode: Eons plan to use the Ultamatrix plus the H.O.A to evolve is such a brilliant idea. I knew it was a gimmick, but as a kid the concept of Ben evolving his aliens to even stronger forms was such a cool concept that wasn't handled as well as it could. For this series it makes sense, we know that atp Eon has been using alternative versions of Ben as his host solely because he's been trying to make a perfect Chronian... The issue is every host eventually starts to decay do to their time/reality warping abilities. The Ultamatrix evolves aliens to their ultimate forms, naturally the Ultimate form of a Chronian would be one without those weaknesses. It's an interesting concept and an in universe explanation to justify the ultimate alien concept coming back in some form.*
    *I definitely see why this episode took so long to complete cuz The Ink Tank crew was straight COOKING 🔪 with it. This series has been really well done and I'm eager to see how the gang will be able to defeat Eon, now that's he's achieved his ultimate form. Also... I WILL BE BOPPING THE COVER OF (EMBER YOU WILL REMEMBER MY NAME!)* ✌🏿

      ...It actually _does_ sound like a 5YL version of the Kids Next Door Super Cool Nameinator computer voice. To be fair, that acronym _is_ canon to Gen Rex, and since it's powered by nanites, it's only logical for the Omnitrix to ID it as an E.V.O....

Ben and kevin seem like actual friends here. And the ultimatrix development was a great moment. The story fits together really well

    Man Cooper's end is really devastating, blood-curdling scream by Xander and man is that scene beautifully gorily detailed.
    Love the pacing of the episode, how we go from the more casual set-up of the Orion Squad, to them taking down a lower-level threat, to them being thrust right into a Universe-threatening event, really emphasizing just how beyond them this cataclysmic event that they find themselves in truly is. Also love how much is going on in a lot of these battle scenes, makes them very fun to rewind

Ben 10 and Danny Phantom were my favorite shows growing up and growing up there weren't any of those fans around me. I'm so glad to have been following this channel ever since the Alien X vs Goku/Superman debacle. I hope this reignites interest in the series going forward so that we could see their respective universes get expanded on as both franchises have so much untapped potential. I really hope that you continue the adventures of Ben after 5YL ends because I'm not ready to say goodbye to this version of Ben Tennyson that you've crafted.
