    Hey spirits!
    Big for a SS video huh? Yeah I didn't think it'd be 17 minutes but thats fine. Just want to quickly give a few disclaimers going in or after the video.
    All the ranking footage was taken from the channel Tennyson Forever who compiled all the appearances of the aliens in all 3 shows years ago. Which definitely made it easier instead of having to scrape through wikis looking through 6 seasons of OV just for 20 aliens who's appearance varies each season.
    Also that I do not hate any of the redesigns! On their own Derrick made them unique, cool looking and different from the two other shows. Something AF & UA did to better separate the classic aliens that returned. But in honesty I much prefer his OV original aliens like Crashhopper, Bloxx, feedback, etc. I judged them purely as redesigns from my own likeness of designs. Hence why #20 is, well, #20.
    Anyways I have a SS video on Ultraman rising and a 20+ minute video on megmaind rules S2 video lined up so stay tuned for that. With all that said and done, enjoy!
    Edit: So to give a heads up to new viewers or ones returning to this video again, I am doing a review of the reboot. I’ve watched season 1, part way into season 2 and quite frankly I won’t spoil my thoughts just yet. I will add a ranking in the start but then afterwards you’ll hear my thoughts on the show itself that aren’t compared to the original as much. I’m giving the show a chance.

      TBH the best thing to come out of the Reboot is Shock Rock which is saying a lot since almost everything else sux. He looks cool with unique and thought out powers, if Prime Ben unlocked him I would be happy.

    I headcanon The Reason Goop's Anti gravity Saucer has The Omnitrix is because what happened in The Primus Episode in Ben 10 Alien Force. Azmuth sees how The Omnitrix can be easily removed while Wearer is Goop and made moves with The Omniverse Omnitrix to fix that.

    Disagree on Ultimate Spidermonkey. The UAF version is literally just a gorilla on stilts. Even as a kid I found that pretty underwhelming.
    Omniverse isn't a huge stepup, but it blended the arachnid and simian element alot better.
    The six arms and barbed limbs make this one look less like a typical spider and more like a fat tarantula. Plus, whenever this design splits its mouth open, it becomes downright terrifying, which is the kind of feel they should've aimed for with every Ultimate imo.

      Thats exactly my problem with Ult Spidermonkeys design in OV. It really is trash to me, because it looks just like a regular gorilla but with 2 extra arms… I like the Stilts on the Original because they were Spiderlegs. The only thing I like about Ult Spidermonkey OV is his mouth splitting, other than that, I don’t like him allat much

    Jetray looks the exact same in the reboot as he does in Alien Force. That’s actually a criticism I’ve seen about his design there, that he looks way taller than everyone else because he’s still the same proportions while everything else is weirdly shrunk.

    • @Exspiritmental
      @Exspiritmental  3 місяці тому +1

      His body might be the same but his reboot colours blend in poorly to me.
      Don’t get me wrong, the orange could work well but they give him a less saturated red for skin. The darker red made the yellow pop out and the same could’ve been for the orange addition

    • @Exspiritmental
      @Exspiritmental  3 місяці тому +8

      I don’t mind his head or fur shape such as the spiked curled hair, but to me it makes him look like much older than a teenager. Especially with how his pattern colour look like old streaks in the hair which would be better suited for maybe Ben 10k or an old variant.
      Besides that he’s just paler and kept the design did the other parts of his design outside what’s connected to the OV watch for Spidermonkey.

    • @ebensennett3095

  • @full-throttleaxolotl181
    @full-throttleaxolotl181 3 місяці тому +1

    Just rambling some of my takes into the void here, some redesigns I'd add to the 'worst' list are Arctiguana (for looking less nimble/dextrous, and for being the ONLY 16yo transformation to be dressed in black/white rather than black/green) and Upchuck (specifically Perk as he's more fleshy and less gooey, and I prefer him clothed to naked - even the 11yo design now has his feet out).
    For the 'best' list, I'd go with Four Arms (specifically relative to his design in UA, which isn't BAD but I prefer the moustache to the ponytail), Brainstorm (I like his new proportions better, and the green outfit/electricity works better with his carapace/brain imo), and AmpFibian (his limbs being interchangeably arms or legs, his new Omnitrix placement, and his crackly pattern... I don't think I like it more than his original, but it's a redesign that does something different without ruining the character).
    As for your opinions:
    -Swampfire: I do like how DJW based the blossomed form off of Tom Perkins' concept art, but as a redesign it was too much too late.
    -Big Chill: it's obvious how bat-like he became, so I wish that he could swap OV proportions with Whampire - would improve them both!
    -Blitzwolfer: from memory, his original series design has tendrils that LOOK like fur, so it's a shame that OV did away with the nuance.
    -Upgrade: UAF making the species entirely green was a shame. Wholly agreed that the issue with the 'trix eye is restricting expressions.
    -Goop: My only complaint about him in OV is that he's less... fluid? I guess? (btw I strongly prefer his watch on his Projector over his chest)
    -Ghostfreak: I'm super nostalgia for the OG, but I rate the redesign just as highly - he almost feels like a different alien (in a good way)!
    -Wildvine: ...never thought about it before, but YEAH,, he looked SO much better originally, despite not changing that much.
    -NRG: agreed that the suit got an upgrade, hard disagree on the core form looking lame (no reason, I'm just a fan).
    -Lodestar: wouldn't personally call him bad, but it's really hard to say that it's an improvement.
    -Cannonbolt: sometimes his hands looks concave instead of convex which isn't appealing, but otherwise fine.
    -Snare-Oh: his face looks less alien and his watch should really be on his head, not a belt (since he can unravel fully),,, still rate it tho.
    -Ripjaws: I don't think it's controversial,, I like how dorky he can look in classic but I think my favourite design of his is OV's.
    -Way Big: agreed that they met a perfect middle between OS and UAF.
    -Juryrigg and Eatle: amusingly, it was actually DJW himself who designed them in UA! Dunno if he was the re-designer though...
    -Shocksquatch: I'm admittedly fond of his appearance in the crossover, but OV's is nonetheless a stellar take.
    -Albedo: his Humungousaur is sick, his Spidermonkey is better than UA's imo, and Arctiguana/Gravattack (not Rath) are p e a k.
    -Water Hazard: the increased detail, eye count, and texture REALLY make him feel like a classic alien, which is quite high praise!
    As an aside, I just realised the numbers are colour coded! Impeccable attention to detail :)

    the reboot gets too much hate
    I watched Ben 10 since the original show
    and the reboot has elements that I like
    mainly Ben and Gwen's relationship, instead of fighting 9/10 times, they feel much more like a family
    even though there are only 5, some of the new aliens are pretty cool (Shock Rock), same for some changes to the originals, like Humungousaur's tail or Ripjaws' gill equipment (btw in the reboot Gwen 10 has the Ripjaws transformation, not Ben)
    speaking of Gwen aliens, when she transforms into Stinkfly, that designs works amazing for her
    also Kevin with an Omnitrix, that just reminds me of when we saw him for the very first time and became a 50% Heatblast and 50% Four Arms briefly

      No doubt the reboot has some appeal and good parts to it that’s it does better.
      I hate the reboot with a passion because it’s just made as one big toy show. I’ve caught a few clips and episodes here and there but anytime i saw them add something new it was just to market a toy without giving it any of the original charm classic Ben had
      One of which was Kevin who built a nemitrix in his garage, or that alien x special. Any alien they added, redesigned or made was just to be produced as a toy including all the kits, and other stuff. I do appreciate the reboot has original aliens like shockrock, slap back. But it favours redesigning aliens to give them more toy appeal and loses what made them special (wildvine, stinkfly). Though if I looked I would like of them redesigns

    • @Exspiritmental
      @Exspiritmental  3 місяці тому +2

      The reboot will probably have some things I like but overall it comes off as just being made specifically for toys such as changing wildvine and stinkfly instead of finding a work around that didn’t make them basic 2 legged aliens. Omniverse doesn’t try to return to the classic series and I like that as it acts more as a continuation and even giving a reason why Ben gave up the omnitrix in the first place in AF. Such as adding Feedback or having a few stories where after the summer Ben would still be doing some stuff with his omnitrix
      I appreciate the reboot did add new aliens but it comes off as lazy and not just with its animation.

    OV shocksquach feels so boring. Lets make a guy, but paint him yellow and staple a lightning bolt to his face, in case we forget he's an electric alien. And lets give him the same muscle build as half the aliens in the show. Hes so boring and forgettable now.
