Arguably I actually really like unis. She’s a interesting concept that I wish was shown up more. Maybe if she was introduced in alien force and used in the same way the Orion squad is, she could be a bit more iconic
I wouldn't mind Eunice being another being of her own. Maybe the Unitrix only got the female genome of Gwen and then randomisation occurred, something that explains her hair colour change. She would've been a decent love interest for Ben, if the network never did Julie dirty.
@@madladdie7069 since Ben is related to Gwen through their dads, if only Gwen's female genome was randomised then (theoretically) she would not be biologically related to Ben. Think of her as Gwen's half sister *not* on the Tennyson side. However, that's still pretty weird.
@@abbystafford7549 what do you even mean by female genome? just that it came from someone who's female? if Gwen's genome was randomised it would be different enough to effectively be unrelated. Genetically they aren't related. The weirdness comes from Ben considering her to be family by the time Omniverse rolls around.
Cursed Fun Fact: If you draw Alien force/Ultimate Alien version of Gwen but with more thicker eyebrows and draw her mouth like she dosen't lipstick on she looks like Ben it's weird as hell when you can picture it in your head
@@TheNightTyrant I just like her personality and the way her abilities work. Plus, she has some good chemistry with the cast and her few interactions with Ben weren’t defined by how horrible they are together.
@@thecreepers3478 How ? 1-For how many minutes did Ben engage in a conversation with her to a point we can call it something of importance? 2-How many times she help Ben or Ben's team in any situation? 3-Does she make us laugh ?

Or is more entertaining then entire arcs or plots ? 4-Does she adds something of value to the team ? 5-Is she an essential character that must be there ? 6-What kind of massive impact does she adds to the overall quality of the show ? 7-How does she like Ben more ?

I remember really liking the scene where Eunice expresses shock at eating animals and Gwen is like, “that’s good! You remember you’re a vegetarian.” Something about how this character had literally no backstory because she had only been alive for a day and already was developing values independent of the values of anyone she had interacted with felt really nice to see.
*Deep Breaths* - I personally ignore the idea of Eunice's relation, for the same logic. - Could Eunice's power be In-Universe inspiration for Ultimate Ben? - I dig the idea of Eunice as Azmuth's new assistant - As a 'Benlie' fan, this episode was slightly hard to watch - Ben's speech about aliens being living beings is always a fav of mine - Does Azmuth have more Unitrixes in storage? - So it just dawned on me. I believe it was stated tht the Unitrix came to Earth cuz it was picking on the Ultimatrix. So, years later, would u think the nemetrix would be factored in?
@@tezsinha6405 If he did, I feel like he'd keep them off. Let's be honest, Ben and Azmuth always argue and I can see him using inactive unitrixies as ammunition in an argument against ben's speech
Eunice's position as kinda like the Supergirl to Ben's Superman (backstory and visual inspired by her, similar familiar/semi-romantic bond as Silver Age Supergirl), gives her a lot of potential as a character in the larger franchise.
and her voice actress, Molly C. Quinn, has voiced Supergirl in Superman Unbound! (also Yuri Lowenthal, Ben’s actor, has played Superman in the Legion of Superheroes animated series)
I always find it fascinating how organically the concept of a unitrix fits within the Ben 10 universe. It is a fresh surprise for the series to come up with this concept this late into the game.
It makes you wonder if they could use something like that to bring back any species they want. If the Unitrix can create a whole being like this, I wonder if they could artificially create new members of a species with it. And assuming they can procreate, the randomized DNA could be different enough to avoid the genetic deficiency issue that the Highbreed ran into.
@@flarestorm9417 Yeah I definitely think so. It would just be a lot more inefficient since you’d have to store each species on its own unitrix, but that could actually be more suitable too, idk
Sunder: Did you really think you could beat me? Ben: Well yeah. Sunder: Last mistake you'll ever make. Kevin: Not true he'll make a lot more mistakes........that didnt come out right.
Eunice, what if a Omnitrix was a artificial Supergirl... Wait, DC already did that. Still surprised how little she did throughout the series. Funny enough, Eunice's VA, Molly C. Quinn would go on to be Supergirl in Superman Unbound.
While I get why she got controversy, I wish we got more episodes with Eunice. She’s an interesting flip on Ben powers and having her really discover herself would be nice, could’ve been a nice status quo change from the ultimate Kevin arc.
I feel like Eunice was a prototype for the ultimate Ben function in the Second Ultimatrix, would be cool to see the full functionality of that Ultimatrix like maybe it has all the features of the previous devices like maybe it can also repair genetic damage
highly doubt it, eunice was one of if not the first of azmuths attempts at anything like the omnitrix, so i doubt he was even thinking about the ultimatrix. that and the evolutionary function was added by albedo, and azmuth didnt even like the idea of it (map of infinity he said how it was just begging for trouble)
@@fallen5983 what I mean is I think the unitrix was the starting point for the concept of biological powers without transforming, whether he intended to or not
You know, now that you mention it, having Kevin be the one whose DNA is sampled by the Unitrix to create Eunice would also explain her ability to absorb animal powers. That one always felt very random to me. Though, on second thought, maybe that’s meant to be a Unitrix thing, hence the green glow when she does it
I don't think Omniverse confirmed anything about Eunice. Because in that episode Zenith says they scanned Ben's mind, and if ben thinks Eunice is genetically related to him that would make her disappear with other as well, which is what exactly happens in the show.
Always thought this episode was more tedious than anything, probably cause it came after the hype of the kevin arc but Eunice’s powers also take away the appeal dna mimicry by not having her forms change at least a little when mimicking the other animals. The fact that azmuth hired a dude that tried to kill ben instead of Just sending a robot also makes me trust him exceedingly less. Even if you can get away from the incest ramifications it still means ben was an ass about his current standing relationship.
@@yashjoshijee2294 i watched some of the reboot and post season 1 its better than the other reboots on average. I like the idea that once ben gets a new alien they replace another one and acknowledges it so they don't have to do the classic "four arms to stinkfly/grey matter" so that they make an apearance. The only important/really good and entartaining episodes are season finales and other multi-parters(beacause of the 10 minute format, 2 parters become 4-5 parters), even the season 1 finale. Bonus points for actually shading in every scene and not a select few
I always liked Eunice even as a kid. Her existence honestly tied the universe and a few loose ends together very nicely especially in regards to the omnitrix’s supposed function as an ark.
I like both of the Eunice episodes, but I agree with what you said starting at 2:59 because Eunice really should have been considered as her own person.
Haha! I was gonna say the same thing about the Kevin concept, lol. Imagine the idea of Eunice being a sample of Kevin's DNA, cause I would have loved to see the reaction of Ben and Kevin upon learning that.
@@mechajay3358 What would be interesting is if she would have a toned body or resemble a younger version of Kevin's mom. Hinting at her using Kevin as a source but not outwardly stating it.
TBH I actually love Eunice as a character especially considering that she had a lot of potential to play as an innocent girl type of troupe whereby shes wondering who she is and what her purpose is in this world or what she is this could have been an awesome concept if they went with that direction.But alast we cant always have what we want.
I feel like the concept of Eunice could have had a much bigger impact on the fandom. I like the idea of randomising Gwen’s DNA, and I feel like people could definitely talk about how that could have influenced Eunice’s personality. What if it was Kevin’s DNA that created Eunice? Would she act differently? How would she act? Would she be herself? Would she be a she? What if the device wasn’t tracking the watch and some other random people found Eunice? Would she look and act different again? This could all tap into the science of DNA in the real world and even some thoughts about how genetic memories or personalities could work. (I’m not too educated on any science of DNA, just basic Biology and the nature vs nurture debate but honestly it could tap into those.). I definitely feel that the controversy around Eunice being related to Ben affecting the “romantic” scenes definitely had an impact on how she affected the cannon, taking the focus of what could have been a potentially deep philosophically challenging character to just “ew, incest”.
Eunice should have appeared in more episodes. She is an interesting idea for a charicter in the Ben 10 universe. I would have liked to see her join the Max force with the plumber kids.
@@nellewoodruff6337 Her animal abilities could have looked great in Omniverse’s more fluid animation style, and the fact she can copy animal abilities might have been a good angle on the Kyber Nemetrix arc with seeing how prey handle predators.
This episode is really great. The idea of untrix is amazing, it makes total sense for Azmuth to have prototypes and kinda comes full circle when its revealed the Omnitrix is still no finished. Eunice as a character was good too, her dynamic with the trio is organic, especially with Ben, and the villain was menacing because of the new toys Azmuth gave him (that surprised me in the first time I watched, I was like "how this random ass villain is putting up such a good fight?"). The only real problem with this was the main problem of the Ben 10 franchise: inconsistency with in itself.
I always thought that since in the Omniverse episode they said they scanned Ben's mind and removed people he thought as family that it was because after the ending of this episode Ben saw Eunice as like adopted family and that what was once a crush turned into genuine care but in a different way
This is actually one of my favorite episodes. Eunice is interesting as a character and a concept. We learned a lot about her in a short amount of time, her powers and the way she implements them are unique and her personality isn't one-dimensional. I also feel that out of all of Ben's love interests, she has the most chemistry with him. It sucks that she was subjected to the pseudo-cest because I would have loved to see how their relationship developed. I really liked Eunice and wished they used her more.
Eunice is kinda like Silk in Amazing Spider-Man How she was introduced was.... beyond questionable to say the least, but the idea and concept behind her is gold. Kinda makes you wish a better writer tried writing her more and do what other later writers did with silk and give her a better use
The scene where Ben stands up to Azmuth was pretty tense ngl. I like Eunice and do wish that her powers and the moral conflict presented with her in the episode was explored more in future episodes. Though I think we could have done without making her another love interest for Ben. Even disregarding the... unfortunate implications, I never liked the idea of Ben open to cheating on Julie.
i saw a fanart of ben being turned into the unitrix i forgot the artist but it was a pretty cool concept its doing what basically Ultimate Ben is doing but way better, and make more sense
Eunice might of work better if they cut out the romance subplot and focus on her kind of being Gwen's daughter/clone/unrelated person who is about the same age.
Giving Gwen someone she can talk to who isn’t Ben or Kevin about alien or other things could have been interesting. It’s Not Easy Being Gwen is pretty much the only time we see her with another girl her age who isn’t anything to do with magic or aliens.
I was just thinking about how to improve the episode and I think you hit the mark. Ben and Eunice’s romance felt fanficy at best. Eunice is too nice and would never call Ben out when he’s being a jerk, something he needs in a partner, and the fact that he’s going after Eunice when he and Julie are technically still together makes him look awful. Setting up a new friendship with Gwen however, someone she can talk to who’s different from her usual friends is an interesting angle
Before Eunice was confirmed related, or as I like to refer to it, pulling a Skywalker. She looked different enough, that I figured it sampled Gwens human DNA and filled out the rest of the components from the database. Making her distinct enough to be her own person. If she came out looking exactly like Gwen, things would be problematic. As it is, they made it problematic with Ben trying to cheat on Julie and dissing her behind her back. As well as pulling a Skywalker on her.
Now that we're getting into UA Season 3, I feel like a lot of these episodes could've worked much better in Seasons 1 and 2, to give the Aggregor and Kevin story arcs time to breath. "Mother of all Vreedles" could introduce the Vreedles as plummers before the Ultimate Kevin arc. "It's Not Easy Being Gwen" could explore Gwen's feelings about his boyfriend being a monster again. "Catch a Falling Star" could show how far gone Ben is and introduce some new aliens that he can use in his final fight against Kevin. Maybe I'm wrong but it definitely feels like this was the idea with some of these episodes, hence why Kevin is abcent from some S3 episodes like Catch a Falling Star for seemingly no reason.
I really like the ideas you presented here and upon thinking about some episodes that Kevin was missing from maybe you’re right and this could explain his absence.
I always saw it the same way Kuro mentioned here about randomized DNA (never saw the Omniverse episodes were it was confirmed to be familial now so thats sad) but I always just saw it as she was her own person who just had a similar structure to gwen's bodytype like a semi-doppelganger because of one negibligble strand of DNA. Like in the same way I have the same hair colour as Kuro, maybe me and Kuro share a strand of DNA that causes that, but we definitely aren't related. Aside from that, I wish they'd thrown in some line about Julie and Ben taking a break here, would of made this less sleazy from Ben's angle *and* given more indication to what ultimately becomes of their relationship in Omniverse. Only other thing I can say is its a shame Ben and Azmuth's arguement was so last minute for the episode, I wish we got more detail on that. The fact Azmuth and Ben are very different people overall yet both have vastly personal stakes in the Omnitrix and everything related to it as the creator and the bearer, the conflicts between them should be big deals that get more focus and development for sure.
I was also going to suggest replacing Gwen with Kevin as Eunice's DNA source. Some fun could be had with her as a female clone of Kevin, the rest of the team (including Julie) finding her oddly charming, while Kevin himself acting instinctively protective of her for reasons he doesn't understand. Then when she's revealed as the unitrix with Kevin's DNA, Ben, Gwen and and Julie all look to Kevin in surprise. Kevin: holy crud, I have a baby sister!!
You know, considering that Eunice is only genetically human, doesn't that make her ... well, whatever you would call an AI with a genetically human body? Could've been interesting to build a story around. My personal opinion is that, maybe, the Unitrix' AI and that of the Omnitrix/Ultimatrix are different, the latter being intentionally less advanced after Azmuth considered potential problems with the former (like going rogue and altering its own programming as a result of personal experiences, etc.). Secondly, as I already mentioned earlier, if this episode had centered on Ben running away from his trauma, they could've avoided the whole incest thing and just made her DNA source a random girl, maybe even turned the whole AI learning about being human up to 11. If they're ever going to do a reboot of the series, this is definitely an angle that could be explored given recent developments in AI technology.
I really wonder what the shows writers had against Julie? Eunice’s introduction would have been a lot less problematic without the romantic angle at all. She also was interesting enough to see more episodes and not just cameos. Ben 10 had a serious problem post AF with utilizing their non-main cast recurring allies or properly actualizing the potential of characters.
Eunice's genetical relation with Gwen and Ben is not really official. It was one of the several statements made by Derrick J. Wyatt that no one from Man of Action or the Ultimate Alien crew ever confirmed. The fact is, as Azmuth himself states, Eunice's DNA is a sample from Gwen randomized into a new DNA of its own. Gwen provided the general human genome foundation, which the Unitrix built upon a brand new DNA with random features. That's why she's blonde and her face has a different shape from Gwen's. She could have even been black or asian, shorter than Gwen or even male, by they've chosen the stereotypical sexy blondie just for romantic purposes
It became official when Eunice disappeared after Ben requested that everyone he's related to be removed from the game in Omniverse's "The Most Dangerous Game Show". So unfortunately, in that regard, she is related to Ben, which I think is a terrible idea.
@@TheRustBucket if you rewatch the scene, you would notice that the girls excluded from the contest are not just Ben's relatives. Those are Ma Vreedle, Xagliv and Helen (some others are erroneously shown to be "poofed" away, but than reappear in the competitions, like Myaxx and Drew Saturday). In fact Ben asks to exclude "my mother, cousins and a COUPLE OF GIRLS THAT--". Skurd then says "you've just used the Smart Bomb", which I think it implies Charles Zenith is able to determine not only if a girl is related to Ben, but also if he would ever come on to her. Maybe Eunice at the time was just a friend to him, like Helen. So, that's not really a confirmation of Eunice being related to any Tennyson
I know people tend to consider the first four series as one continuity/universe, but I feel like something that is canon to Omniverse should not be considered canon to UAF, as well as what is considered canon to UAF should not me considered canon to classic series. I mean, each depiction of Ben 10 has a different creative team of its own, different minds thinking of different things for different series. It doesn't seem fair to say, for example, that Eunice from UAF, written by UAF's team, is related to Ben because Omniverse's team, in the future, would decide to make her related to Ben, since UAF's Eunice wasn't written like that
@@davilenine6420 I'm sorry, but this is how sagas work. Of course everyone can have their own headcanon, but if something is officially declared as part of the canon, we have no right to say "the thing said in that series is not official because it's not been said in the series I like more". Even all the bullshit surrounding Servantis and Devin Levin is canon (besides the fact there still is some room of uncertainty from which we can pull out an explaination that can fix all the inconsistencies)
Eunice really is a great character with great powers, it's weird considering her relationship to Ben in this episode, but I like the character herself outside of that. I just wish we'd have gotten more of her. And, yeah, Kevin being related to her instead wouldn't have changed the story.
It's kind of sad how Ben has effectively the worst romantic relationships in the whole series, and in most cases it's because of his own faults, not his partner's faults.
I like Euince, wish they did more with her. She could've offered up a new dynamic to the group. Her having Kevin's DNA would've been a lot more interesting.
I really liked Eunice, and I do wish we saw more of her. I really don't think she's related to Ben - at least, not enough that it matters, and not to mention Azmuth never said the randomized DNA is entirely human-based. Human compatible, in the same way that some aliens and humans can produce human-looking offspring, but very different from your standard human. As a love interest, she's really great, and would have added an interesting dynamic, making Ben think about his relationship with Julie and giving a proper reason for their eventual break-up, even if they aren't a final couple. And, as you pointed out, I think the episode really would have benefitted from being a two-parter and exploring Eunice's concepts and origins more, as well as that struggle of not being alive in the traditional sense, but still having a conscious and sense of self. A good idea, but really not well executed in the long run. Even though the episode is fine, it just felt like they added a cool idea just to abandon it, and only bringing her back in UA for an episode where it really doesn't explore her any further (at least, in my recollection).
The bit in this episode that gets me every time is when Ben goes to pet the rabbit, but then moves to hold Eunice's hand and leans into the almost-kiss. He's trying to be so smooth and it's hilarious.
It’s interesting how the Unitrix was designed to only absorb one species, but still have Eunice take on the metabolism and abilities of animals, similar to an Osmosian, but without consequential results on said creature she interacts with and doesn’t mess with her mental health or have her be obsessed with power. Design-wise, the Unitrix basically looks like a soda can, but the minimalist design is suitable for an Omnitrix prototype. Plus, now that I think about it, the sexual tension between Ben and Eunice does come across as incestuous, which is rather unsettling and disgusting to say the least. That’s my mid-late teen hood ruined.
DNA being randomised really would mean that Ben is not related to her, like in the alien examples. The confirmation that she IS related to Ben sounds just as off to me as the 'osmosians don't exist' thing. There are trillions of different possibilities of genes and an absurd amount of different interactions between genes. The Chance that Eunice is related to Ben AFTER the randomisation should be near zero.
@@jsb6975.ah.crapbaskets I would even have accepted it if we had some people in omniverse react like 'uhm... You know she's related to you? You know that this is kinda messed up where you come from?' It would've been akward anyways, but more realistic with characters in the Show pointing it out. Now people would find Ben weird for it rather than the Authors. Or, that' s how i would've reacted.
Unis was actually a good concept I remember back in the days I was expecting her to be another side character like Ship Even tho the relation ship part is kinda bs That would have been awesome to see her later on in the show Heck imagine Ok this one is actually weird said like that But Hear me out Ultimate Unis....?
Could be something like absorbing the abilities from far away without needing to touch and something like limitless shapeshifting based on whatever abilities she have stored. Example while fighting a tetramand (fourarms) in a foresty area she can use both four arms and poison from plants nearby, or any other abilities she can think of. This would be powerful because she can combine many skills, but would be balanced by the fact that she needs the DNA of nearby creatures to do it.
It would be better if things changes a little bit. Instead of getting this form by analysing Gwen's DNA, she could adapted the form by identifying the dominant species of that planet, or by making a perfect being according to the one who activated unitrix so they would enter a romantic relationship and the resident would be tricked into protecting the unitrix, making Azmuth's words have a bit more ground to stand on . Ben broke up with Julie due to the previous episodes, so Ben's arrogance could have consequences, and so does those episodes that depicted that Ben. It also make the romantic scene less awkward as Ben's not cheating, again.
Define what "dominant species" means. In terms of biomass, humans barely even register compared to invertebrates and especialy bacteria. Humans are better described as the planet's current apex predators.
I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen this episode before. Like I’ve seen clips of practically every episode but this episode is something I have no memory of in any capacity. It’s almost weird seeing a part of Ben 10 media that’s entirely new to me
I like Eunice and i thought she was an interesting idea they could of explored what makes her human since shes an Ai and the Eunice and Ben romance didn’t bother me because even if it’s a bit questionable since it was Gwen’s DNA but I think it was probably randomised she probably has DNA from other things in the device and also Ben and Julie broke up during this time so Ben isn’t cheating if they’re not together anymore and I would have liked to see more Eunice
I actually liked this episode, but I agree that Kevin should've opened the pod instead of Gwen and I hate how she became a throw away character (despite her brief cameo in Omniverse), she's one of the many one of characters that ended up being forgotten.
2:43 The scene where Charles Zenith teleports all of Ben's female relatives away ALSO removes EightEight AND Helen, among others, so take that as you will...
I remember really hating this episode as a kid and I have no idea why Maybe it was the unis being related thing or it being after ultimate Kevin arc but I remember hating this episode and there are no reasons to
Ben 10 UA episodes 21 to 30 are the ones I know best, and have been anticipating the most, because I have them on DVD. I would love to see 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, and 28 get full breakdowns.
I feel like Eunice should've definitely replaced Rook in omniverse....... Like I remember in the Omniverse DVD commentary with the show runner he said he liked Rook because he offered an interesting dynamic with Ben,were Ben has all the experience Rook had all the training and my immediate thought was of how Eunice would've worked way better with that concept since her powers are similar enough to Ben that you can have a superman and supergirl type of relationship while still having differences between the two (like how she has access to more aliens) making her less of a carbon copy Eunice is definitely an interesting character that deserves more love Also am I the only one who thinks ultimate Ben was using the Unematrix or maybe he perfected the Unematrix.....
*absolutely not* I wouldn’t trade rook for anyone as ben’s omniverse partner. Dude’s a perfect mix of badass and wholesome, and gives us a look into another aliens lifestyle and habits long term. In the grand scheme of things his proto tool is more applicable in way more circumstances than Eunices animal powers are. I don’t think I strongly dislike Eunice, but I’m not all that compelled by her character either.
This was an episode i was looking forward to a full breakdown of but my disappointment is null from the sheer quality of this video that covers so much in such a short amount of time with nothing significant overlooked
I love Eunice. I wish we got more of her. A sentient Omnitrix core is a cool concept. Especially given the prototype Omnitrix seemed to act independently at times in classic. I didn’t notice that Azmuth said “One of” meaning there are more shelved devices like the Omnitrix. I wonder how many and what made them different. The pseudo-inc3st argument is baseless. It RANDOMIZED Gwen’s DNA, that’s uncounted generations of DNA, largely human and so distant it doesn’t count.
If Kevin touched the space pod but Eunice was still considered related to him, I think that could’ve had great potential. Compared to Ben and Gwen, Kevin only has his mom and stepdad as family. So getting someone he could consider a sibling could’ve been a really nice gateway to possible stories of them growing closer and Kevin welcoming her to his family.
Eunice is an interesting and nice Character, MY problem is finding out Ben flirting after what happened with Julie...AND now I just found out they said Eunice is related to Him... ...AWKWARD!!!
Kind of wish Unis appeared in more episodes even if she's nothing more than Azmuth's assistance similar to Myaxx and while Ultimate Alien did give us that. It feels like they set up a lot of story concept only to not go through with it at all.
Eunice being a tennyson is more of a writer's opinion then canon, specially weird when considering DJW's other remarks on things like Ben 10k and stuff. I would consider the stuff with the most dangerous gameshow as a genuine mistake considering it wouldn't be the kind of thing the writers would give much thought to and probably just asked derrick
She seemed like a cool character design wise and powers too. My problem was they dumped a new character without making any more episodes regarding her. The romantic relationship seemed too fast. She sticked with the team few more episodes then got into a romantic relationship that would have been OK. She still had good chemistry with him. People complaining about ben cheating on Julie, Ben did that way before when he tried to kiss elena. Julie seemed to care more about tennis matches and ben is too busy with saving the world. Their relationship was already messy throughout UA.

@@abbystafford7549 what do you even mean by female genome? just that it came from someone who's female?

*Deep Breaths*
- I personally ignore the idea of Eunice's relation, for the same logic.
- Could Eunice's power be In-Universe inspiration for Ultimate Ben?
- I dig the idea of Eunice as Azmuth's new assistant
- As a 'Benlie' fan, this episode was slightly hard to watch
- Ben's speech about aliens being living beings is always a fav of mine
- Does Azmuth have more Unitrixes in storage?
- So it just dawned on me. I believe it was stated tht the Unitrix came to Earth cuz it was picking on the Ultimatrix. So, years later, would u think the nemetrix would be factored in?
I hope he had more unitrixes
He probably have a Lot of prototypes of omnitrix

Eunice's position as kinda like the Supergirl to Ben's Superman (backstory and visual inspired by her, similar familiar/semi-romantic bond as Silver Age Supergirl), gives her a lot of potential as a character in the larger franchise.

I always find it fascinating how organically the concept of a unitrix fits within the Ben 10 universe. It is a fresh surprise for the series to come up with this concept this late into the game.
Its a livin omnitrix
that sounds like a concept to be explored
It makes you wonder if they could use something like that to bring back any species they want. If the Unitrix can create a whole being like this, I wonder if they could artificially create new members of a species with it. And assuming they can procreate, the randomized DNA could be different enough to avoid the genetic deficiency issue that the Highbreed ran into.
@@flarestorm9417 Yeah I definitely think so. It would just be a lot more inefficient since you’d have to store each species on its own unitrix, but that could actually be more suitable too, idk
@@flarestorm9417Possible 🤔
I love the idea of Eunice. The way her abilities work and her personality, she's excellent. They just... mucked her up horribly.
She gets 1 follow up episode and gets reduced to cameos
She wear Gwen clothes
Her human form was based on Gwen DNA sample
Sunder: Did you really think you could beat me?
Ben: Well yeah.
Sunder: Last mistake you'll ever make.
Kevin: Not true he'll make a lot more mistakes........that didnt come out right.
Eunice, what if a Omnitrix was a artificial Supergirl... Wait, DC already did that. Still surprised how little she did throughout the series.
Funny enough, Eunice's VA, Molly C. Quinn would go on to be Supergirl in Superman Unbound.
While I get why she got controversy, I wish we got more episodes with Eunice. She’s an interesting flip on Ben powers and having her really discover herself would be nice, could’ve been a nice status quo change from the ultimate Kevin arc.
I always thought the line ‘she’s way more human than you are’ was weird when Azmuth is not human. It should’ve referenced a soul or something
I feel like Eunice was a prototype for the ultimate Ben function in the Second Ultimatrix, would be cool to see the full functionality of that Ultimatrix like maybe it has all the features of the previous devices like maybe it can also repair genetic damage
highly doubt it, eunice was one of if not the first of azmuths attempts at anything like the omnitrix, so i doubt he was even thinking about the ultimatrix. that and the evolutionary function was added by albedo, and azmuth didnt even like the idea of it (map of infinity he said how it was just begging for trouble)
@@fallen5983 what I mean is I think the unitrix was the starting point for the concept of biological powers without transforming, whether he intended to or not
You know, now that you mention it, having Kevin be the one whose DNA is sampled by the Unitrix to create Eunice would also explain her ability to absorb animal powers. That one always felt very random to me.
Though, on second thought, maybe that’s meant to be a Unitrix thing, hence the green glow when she does it
Her human form was based on Gwen DNA
one easy fix for Eunice is "the unit detected human dna and created a random human body" or have Kevin tough the pod.
But Gwen touch
It’s great to have regular Kevin back, man
Yeah.
I don't think Omniverse confirmed anything about Eunice. Because in that episode Zenith says they scanned Ben's mind, and if ben thinks Eunice is genetically related to him that would make her disappear with other as well, which is what exactly happens in the show.
Still it was odd seeing Sunny, Aunt Vera, Gwen and his mom in that crowd of his love interests.

Va in short
Ben to Azmuth: "she's way more human than you are".
No shit Ben. Ya dummy.
He should of said person instead of human
Eunice feels like a Supergirl homage
They even share a VA
Right
Always thought this episode was more tedious than anything, probably cause it came after the hype of the kevin arc but Eunice’s powers also take away the appeal dna mimicry by not having her forms change at least a little when mimicking the other animals. The fact that azmuth hired a dude that tried to kill ben instead of Just sending a robot also makes me trust him exceedingly less. Even if you can get away from the incest ramifications it still means ben was an ass about his current standing relationship.
Nice Kuro.

@@yashjoshijee2294 i watched some of the reboot and post season 1 its better than the other reboots on average.

The only important/really good and entartaining episodes are season finales and other multi-parters(beacause of the 10 minute format, 2 parters become 4-5 parters), even the season 1 finale. Bonus points for actually shading in every scene and not a select few
I always liked Eunice even as a kid. Her existence honestly tied the universe and a few loose ends together very nicely especially in regards to the omnitrix’s supposed function as an ark.
Ben: She's way more human than you are!
Azmuth: I'm a f***ing alien Ben!
Honestly, I wouldnt mind if Eunice became a perma member of the main cast. I think it would make a nice adition to the trio (quartet)
Same
Yeah
Or as Azmuth Assistant
I like both of the Eunice episodes, but I agree with what you said starting at 2:59 because Eunice really should have been considered as her own person.
This girl was one of my first ever cartoon crushes, I just remember having such a weird feeling when seeing her lol

@@jsb6975.ah.crapbaskets Yeah, would have been interesting nonetheless
I do like how Eunice is voiced by Molly C. Quinn. She would voice Bloom in the Nickelodeon seasons of Winx Club and Supergirl in Superman: Unbound.
I think there plans to expand on Eunice, like why she was apparently dangerous, but it got scrapped for some reason.
Why do you think that?
@@wisconsinking323 Because Dwayne said it would lead somewhere but unfortunately passed away.
Well she is a livin omnitrix you can imagine a Lot of potencial danger tô that
TBH I actually love Eunice as a character especially considering that she had a lot of potential to play as an innocent girl type of troupe whereby shes wondering who she is and what her purpose is in this world or what she is this could have been an awesome concept if they went with that direction.But alast we cant always have what we want.
I feel like the concept of Eunice could have had a much bigger impact on the fandom. I like the idea of randomising Gwen’s DNA, and I feel like people could definitely talk about how that could have influenced Eunice’s personality. What if it was Kevin’s DNA that created Eunice? Would she act differently? How would she act? Would she be herself? Would she be a she? What if the device wasn’t tracking the watch and some other random people found Eunice? Would she look and act different again? This could all tap into the science of DNA in the real world and even some thoughts about how genetic memories or personalities could work. (I’m not too educated on any science of DNA, just basic Biology and the nature vs nurture debate but honestly it could tap into those.). I definitely feel that the controversy around Eunice being related to Ben affecting the “romantic” scenes definitely had an impact on how she affected the cannon, taking the focus of what could have been a potentially deep philosophically challenging character to just “ew, incest”.
She is just a genetic copy of Gwen
Eunice should have appeared in more episodes. She is an interesting idea for a charicter in the Ben 10 universe.
I would have liked to see her join the Max force with the plumber kids.
With her not having much in the way of preconceptions she’d probably like Max’s cooking.

@@nellewoodruff6337
Nice idea. I might actually try to anemate that interaction.
This episode is really great. The idea of untrix is amazing, it makes total sense for Azmuth to have prototypes and kinda comes full circle when its revealed the Omnitrix is still no finished.
Eunice as a character was good too, her dynamic with the trio is organic, especially with Ben, and the villain was menacing because of the new toys Azmuth gave him (that surprised me in the first time I watched, I was like "how this random ass villain is putting up such a good fight?").
The only real problem with this was the main problem of the Ben 10 franchise: inconsistency with in itself.
Having Kevin be the DNA sample would have been funny.
I always thought that since in the Omniverse episode they said they scanned Ben's mind and removed people he thought as family that it was because after the ending of this episode Ben saw Eunice as like adopted family and that what was once a crush turned into genuine care but in a different way
I agree with this.
This could work but there's sadly so little info to work on
@TheGlassesPro Most Dangerous Gameshow
This is actually one of my favorite episodes. Eunice is interesting as a character and a concept. We learned a lot about her in a short amount of time, her powers and the way she implements them are unique and her personality isn't one-dimensional. I also feel that out of all of Ben's love interests, she has the most chemistry with him. It sucks that she was subjected to the pseudo-cest because I would have loved to see how their relationship developed. I really liked Eunice and wished they used her more.
Eunice is kinda like Silk in Amazing Spider-Man
How she was introduced was.... beyond questionable to say the least, but the idea and concept behind her is gold.
Kinda makes you wish a better writer tried writing her more and do what other later writers did with silk and give her a better use
Oh damn. Yeah this works.
I feel like eunice being relative like a cousin would make sense like a lot of sense.
True so true .
The scene where Ben stands up to Azmuth was pretty tense ngl. I like Eunice and do wish that her powers and the moral conflict presented with her in the episode was explored more in future episodes. Though I think we could have done without making her another love interest for Ben. Even disregarding the... unfortunate implications, I never liked the idea of Ben open to cheating on Julie.
i saw a fanart of ben being turned into the unitrix i forgot the artist but it was a pretty cool concept
its doing what basically Ultimate Ben is doing but way better, and make more sense
Omnitrix AU ben i follow them, their art is great
I’m still miffed albedo can’t transform anymore in that AU, but I have to admit the art is impeccable! i especially like wildmutt’s redesign
Interesting 🤔
@@rodrigofigueiredo8597its artist Non binary ?
Eunice might of work better if they cut out the romance subplot and focus on her kind of being Gwen's daughter/clone/unrelated person who is about the same age.
The fact this episode isn't like a Gwen bonding over a new friend episode while she literally kickstarted the plot is actually really weird
Giving Gwen someone she can talk to who isn’t Ben or Kevin about alien or other things could have been interesting. It’s Not Easy Being Gwen is pretty much the only time we see her with another girl her age who isn’t anything to do with magic or aliens.
I was just thinking about how to improve the episode and I think you hit the mark.
Ben and Eunice’s romance felt fanficy at best. Eunice is too nice and would never call Ben out when he’s being a jerk, something he needs in a partner, and the fact that he’s going after Eunice when he and Julie are technically still together makes him look awful.
Setting up a new friendship with Gwen however, someone she can talk to who’s different from her usual friends is an interesting angle
Genetic copy of Gwen
@@jbcatz5In my story i make a girlfriend for Gwen
Before Eunice was confirmed related, or as I like to refer to it, pulling a Skywalker.
She looked different enough, that I figured it sampled Gwens human DNA and filled out the rest of the components from the database. Making her distinct enough to be her own person. If she came out looking exactly like Gwen, things would be problematic. As it is, they made it problematic with Ben trying to cheat on Julie and dissing her behind her back. As well as pulling a Skywalker on her.
"something beautiful"
*shows flower drawn in ms paint by me in 1st grade*
That little flower made me chuckle now that you mentioned it
Now that we're getting into UA Season 3, I feel like a lot of these episodes could've worked much better in Seasons 1 and 2, to give the Aggregor and Kevin story arcs time to breath.
"Mother of all Vreedles" could introduce the Vreedles as plummers before the Ultimate Kevin arc.
"It's Not Easy Being Gwen" could explore Gwen's feelings about his boyfriend being a monster again.
"Catch a Falling Star" could show how far gone Ben is and introduce some new aliens that he can use in his final fight against Kevin.
Maybe I'm wrong but it definitely feels like this was the idea with some of these episodes, hence why Kevin is abcent from some S3 episodes like Catch a Falling Star for seemingly no reason.
I really like the ideas you presented here and upon thinking about some episodes that Kevin was missing from maybe you’re right and this could explain his absence.
For a character with multiple appearances, I did not know that Eunice existed
I always saw it the same way Kuro mentioned here about randomized DNA (never saw the Omniverse episodes were it was confirmed to be familial now so thats sad) but I always just saw it as she was her own person who just had a similar structure to gwen's bodytype like a semi-doppelganger because of one negibligble strand of DNA.
Like in the same way I have the same hair colour as Kuro, maybe me and Kuro share a strand of DNA that causes that, but we definitely aren't related. Aside from that, I wish they'd thrown in some line about Julie and Ben taking a break here, would of made this less sleazy from Ben's angle *and* given more indication to what ultimately becomes of their relationship in Omniverse.
Only other thing I can say is its a shame Ben and Azmuth's arguement was so last minute for the episode, I wish we got more detail on that. The fact Azmuth and Ben are very different people overall yet both have vastly personal stakes in the Omnitrix and everything related to it as the creator and the bearer, the conflicts between them should be big deals that get more focus and development for sure.
Truly duped started sinking benlie relationship which lead to break up. This episode is proof of that
@@yashjoshijee2294 Ben’s actions has nothing to do with their breakup
@@axelnilsson5124 In this episode it does not affect their breakup but further episode would just wait and watch
I was also going to suggest replacing Gwen with Kevin as Eunice's DNA source. Some fun could be had with her as a female clone of Kevin, the rest of the team (including Julie) finding her oddly charming, while Kevin himself acting instinctively protective of her for reasons he doesn't understand. Then when she's revealed as the unitrix with Kevin's DNA, Ben, Gwen and and Julie all look to Kevin in surprise.
Kevin: holy crud, I have a baby sister!!
I've had similar idea to this way before this episode
Right! It would give Kevin a family member to love and he could some growth as well. It would have been a fun way to add to the groups dynamic.
You know, considering that Eunice is only genetically human, doesn't that make her ... well, whatever you would call an AI with a genetically human body? Could've been interesting to build a story around. My personal opinion is that, maybe, the Unitrix' AI and that of the Omnitrix/Ultimatrix are different, the latter being intentionally less advanced after Azmuth considered potential problems with the former (like going rogue and altering its own programming as a result of personal experiences, etc.).
Secondly, as I already mentioned earlier, if this episode had centered on Ben running away from his trauma, they could've avoided the whole incest thing and just made her DNA source a random girl, maybe even turned the whole AI learning about being human up to 11. If they're ever going to do a reboot of the series, this is definitely an angle that could be explored given recent developments in AI technology.
I really wonder what the shows writers had against Julie? Eunice’s introduction would have been a lot less problematic without the romantic angle at all. She also was interesting enough to see more episodes and not just cameos. Ben 10 had a serious problem post AF with utilizing their non-main cast recurring allies or properly actualizing the potential of characters.
So true like why did they have to do julie dirty?even in omnivers she had the worst plot possible and then kai came out of nowhere it was shit tbh
Cuz shes asian and the writers are racists(jk)
Come to think of it, Ben’s first encounter with Eunice is similar to how his grandparents first met
Yeah
Max and Verdona
Eunice deserved more screen time
Eunice's genetical relation with Gwen and Ben is not really official. It was one of the several statements made by Derrick J. Wyatt that no one from Man of Action or the Ultimate Alien crew ever confirmed.
The fact is, as Azmuth himself states, Eunice's DNA is a sample from Gwen randomized into a new DNA of its own. Gwen provided the general human genome foundation, which the Unitrix built upon a brand new DNA with random features. That's why she's blonde and her face has a different shape from Gwen's.
She could have even been black or asian, shorter than Gwen or even male, by they've chosen the stereotypical sexy blondie just for romantic purposes
It became official when Eunice disappeared after Ben requested that everyone he's related to be removed from the game in Omniverse's "The Most Dangerous Game Show". So unfortunately, in that regard, she is related to Ben, which I think is a terrible idea.
@@TheRustBucket if you rewatch the scene, you would notice that the girls excluded from the contest are not just Ben's relatives. Those are Ma Vreedle, Xagliv and Helen (some others are erroneously shown to be "poofed" away, but than reappear in the competitions, like Myaxx and Drew Saturday).
In fact Ben asks to exclude "my mother, cousins and a COUPLE OF GIRLS THAT--".
Skurd then says "you've just used the Smart Bomb", which I think it implies Charles Zenith is able to determine not only if a girl is related to Ben, but also if he would ever come on to her.
Maybe Eunice at the time was just a friend to him, like Helen.
So, that's not really a confirmation of Eunice being related to any Tennyson
@@ultimatejager4058 Lucy gets poofed too, even though she's only a second cousin by marriage, and an entirely different species.
I know people tend to consider the first four series as one continuity/universe, but I feel like something that is canon to Omniverse should not be considered canon to UAF, as well as what is considered canon to UAF should not me considered canon to classic series. I mean, each depiction of Ben 10 has a different creative team of its own, different minds thinking of different things for different series. It doesn't seem fair to say, for example, that Eunice from UAF, written by UAF's team, is related to Ben because Omniverse's team, in the future, would decide to make her related to Ben, since UAF's Eunice wasn't written like that
@@davilenine6420 I'm sorry, but this is how sagas work. Of course everyone can have their own headcanon, but if something is officially declared as part of the canon, we have no right to say "the thing said in that series is not official because it's not been said in the series I like more".
Even all the bullshit surrounding Servantis and Devin Levin is canon (besides the fact there still is some room of uncertainty from which we can pull out an explaination that can fix all the inconsistencies)
Eunice really is a great character with great powers, it's weird considering her relationship to Ben in this episode, but I like the character herself outside of that. I just wish we'd have gotten more of her. And, yeah, Kevin being related to her instead wouldn't have changed the story.

I was so fucking sure cause this episode would be a quick review .
I like Euince, wish they did more with her. She could've offered up a new dynamic to the group. Her having Kevin's DNA would've been a lot more interesting.
"I figured you'd explain it to me later"
So damn chill.
I really liked Eunice, and I do wish we saw more of her. I really don't think she's related to Ben - at least, not enough that it matters, and not to mention Azmuth never said the randomized DNA is entirely human-based. Human compatible, in the same way that some aliens and humans can produce human-looking offspring, but very different from your standard human.
As a love interest, she's really great, and would have added an interesting dynamic, making Ben think about his relationship with Julie and giving a proper reason for their eventual break-up, even if they aren't a final couple.
And, as you pointed out, I think the episode really would have benefitted from being a two-parter and exploring Eunice's concepts and origins more, as well as that struggle of not being alive in the traditional sense, but still having a conscious and sense of self.
A good idea, but really not well executed in the long run. Even though the episode is fine, it just felt like they added a cool idea just to abandon it, and only bringing her back in UA for an episode where it really doesn't explore her any further (at least, in my recollection).
Fun fact Eunice is voiced by ‘Molly Quinn’, who if you didn’t know she played Alexis castle in the castle tv series
The bit in this episode that gets me every time is when Ben goes to pet the rabbit, but then moves to hold Eunice's hand and leans into the almost-kiss. He's trying to be so smooth and it's hilarious.
4:44 That must hurt like hell
As a concept Eunise is a really cool character
Her fight choreography was entertaining as well
Makes me wish they used this character more
It’s interesting how the Unitrix was designed to only absorb one species, but still have Eunice take on the metabolism and abilities of animals, similar to an Osmosian, but without consequential results on said creature she interacts with and doesn’t mess with her mental health or have her be obsessed with power. Design-wise, the Unitrix basically looks like a soda can, but the minimalist design is suitable for an Omnitrix prototype.
Plus, now that I think about it, the sexual tension between Ben and Eunice does come across as incestuous, which is rather unsettling and disgusting to say the least. That’s my mid-late teen hood ruined.
Has the same energy as
“your feelings for her, are not real, They’re real to me!”
Starkiller
DNA being randomised really would mean that Ben is not related to her, like in the alien examples.
The confirmation that she IS related to Ben sounds just as off to me as the 'osmosians don't exist' thing.
There are trillions of different possibilities of genes and an absurd amount of different interactions between genes.
The Chance that Eunice is related to Ben AFTER the randomisation should be near zero.
Yeah, the Omniverse writers actively decided to make this weird. Well, weirder than it already was.
@@jsb6975.ah.crapbaskets
I would even have accepted it if we had some people in omniverse react like
'uhm... You know she's related to you? You know that this is kinda messed up where you come from?'
It would've been akward anyways, but more realistic with characters in the Show pointing it out. Now people would find Ben weird for it rather than the Authors.
Or, that' s how i would've reacted.
Unis was actually a good concept
I remember back in the days I was expecting her to be another side character like Ship
Even tho the relation ship part is kinda bs
That would have been awesome to see her later on in the show
Heck imagine
Ok this one is actually weird said like that
But
Hear me out
Ultimate Unis....?
I imagine he Just been lida like skurd she can transform parts of her body into aliens or other livin beings
Could be something like absorbing the abilities from far away without needing to touch and something like limitless shapeshifting based on whatever abilities she have stored.
Example while fighting a tetramand (fourarms) in a foresty area she can use both four arms and poison from plants nearby, or any other abilities she can think of.
This would be powerful because she can combine many skills, but would be balanced by the fact that she needs the DNA of nearby creatures to do it.
Aw man, I wanted this to be a full review.
me too man
Me too
It would be better if things changes a little bit.
Instead of getting this form by analysing Gwen's DNA, she could adapted the form by identifying the dominant species of that planet, or by making a perfect being according to the one who activated unitrix so they would enter a romantic relationship and the resident would be tricked into protecting the unitrix, making Azmuth's words have a bit more ground to stand on .
Ben broke up with Julie due to the previous episodes, so Ben's arrogance could have consequences, and so does those episodes that depicted that Ben.
It also make the romantic scene less awkward as Ben's not cheating, again.
Define what "dominant species" means. In terms of biomass, humans barely even register compared to invertebrates and especialy bacteria. Humans are better described as the planet's current apex predators.
Yeah when I heard randomized it means I thought more of a grabbing the human DNA and making a human being not Tennyson DNA
I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen this episode before. Like I’ve seen clips of practically every episode but this episode is something I have no memory of in any capacity. It’s almost weird seeing a part of Ben 10 media that’s entirely new to me
I like Eunice and i thought she was an interesting idea they could of explored what makes her human since shes an Ai and the Eunice and Ben romance didn’t bother me because even if it’s a bit questionable since it was Gwen’s DNA but I think it was probably randomised she probably has DNA from other things in the device and also Ben and Julie broke up during this time so Ben isn’t cheating if they’re not together anymore and I would have liked to see more Eunice
I actually liked this episode, but I agree that Kevin should've opened the pod instead of Gwen and I hate how she became a throw away character (despite her brief cameo in Omniverse), she's one of the many one of characters that ended up being forgotten.
I think they switched out the models thus why Gwen is in her AF 3 appearance rather than her UA appearance

Unis is basically Ben 10's version of DC comic's Animal Man or Vixen
Ben 10 UA episodes 21 to 30 are the ones I know best, and have been anticipating the most, because I have them on DVD. I would love to see 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, and 28 get full breakdowns.
I feel like Eunice should've definitely replaced Rook in omniverse....... Like I remember in the Omniverse DVD commentary with the show runner he said he liked Rook because he offered an interesting dynamic with Ben,were Ben has all the experience Rook had all the training and my immediate thought was of how Eunice would've worked way better with that concept since her powers are similar enough to Ben that you can have a superman and supergirl type of relationship while still having differences between the two (like how she has access to more aliens) making her less of a carbon copy
Eunice is definitely an interesting character that deserves more love
Also am I the only one who thinks ultimate Ben was using the Unematrix or maybe he perfected the Unematrix.....
Rook was the better choice can't go wrong with rook.
*absolutely not* I wouldn’t trade rook for anyone as ben’s omniverse partner. Dude’s a perfect mix of badass and wholesome, and gives us a look into another aliens lifestyle and habits long term. In the grand scheme of things his proto tool is more applicable in way more circumstances than Eunices animal powers are.

I love Eunice. I wish we got more of her. A sentient Omnitrix core is a cool concept. Especially given the prototype Omnitrix seemed to act independently at times in classic.
I didn’t notice that Azmuth said “One of” meaning there are more shelved devices like the Omnitrix. I wonder how many and what made them different.
The pseudo-inc3st argument is baseless. It RANDOMIZED Gwen’s DNA, that’s uncounted generations of DNA, largely human and so distant it doesn’t count.
Since this is the season 3 premiere it should have been a full breakdown
I agree
If Kevin touched the space pod but Eunice was still considered related to him, I think that could’ve had great potential. Compared to Ben and Gwen, Kevin only has his mom and stepdad as family. So getting someone he could consider a sibling could’ve been a really nice gateway to possible stories of them growing closer and Kevin welcoming her to his family.
Yeah
Not bad idea 🤔
A UAF episode that isn't just blue background 💙
Eunice is an interesting and nice Character, MY problem is finding out Ben flirting after what happened with Julie...AND now I just found out they said Eunice is related to Him...
...AWKWARD!!!
I forgot the the short versions of the breakdowns existed for a while.
I never clicked about the implications about them being related and the whole flirting thing
I wonder how albedo would react and interact with her and maybe some interactions with asmusths’s other assistant.
Kind of wish Unis appeared in more episodes even if she's nothing more than Azmuth's assistance similar to Myaxx and while Ultimate Alien did give us that. It feels like they set up a lot of story concept only to not go through with it at all.
I don't know, man. I absolutely loved this one back in the day
Eunice being a tennyson is more of a writer's opinion then canon, specially weird when considering DJW's other remarks on things like Ben 10k and stuff. I would consider the stuff with the most dangerous gameshow as a genuine mistake considering it wouldn't be the kind of thing the writers would give much thought to and probably just asked derrick
She seemed like a cool character design wise and powers too. My problem was they dumped a new character without making any more episodes regarding her. The romantic relationship seemed too fast. She sticked with the team few more episodes then got into a romantic relationship that would have been OK. She still had good chemistry with him. People complaining about ben cheating on Julie, Ben did that way before when he tried to kiss elena. Julie seemed to care more about tennis matches and ben is too busy with saving the world. Their relationship was already messy throughout UA.
I legit forgot Liam was the name of Kickenhawk's donor
Imagine a giant Kung Fu chicken walking up to you and someone says his name is Liam, frankly I would need a second wind cus of how much I'm laughing and running away
In Ben’s defense, he believed that he and Julie had broken up
You do know that duped isn’t the last time they met in the series to this point right? She did appear in hero time where Ben calls her “his girl”
@@axelnilsson5124 I didn’t say anything about Duped. I’m going off of what was said in this episode
This is some "we were on a break" crap
@@axelnilsson5124 True duped ruined benlie relationship and led to break up. This is one of few things which I hate about ultimate alien. There relationship was so great and dynamic in alien force, ultimate alien ruined everything
@@yashjoshijee2294 duped really had nothing to do with their break up
