X-Men: Evolution is an American animated television series about the Marvel Comics superhero team X-Men.[1] In this incarnation, many of the characters are teenagers rather than adults. The series ran for a total of four seasons (52 episodes) from November 4, 2000 until October 25, 2003 on Kids' WB, which has made it the third longest-running Marvel Comics animated series, behind only Fox Kids' X-Men and Spider-Man animated series. The series began running on Disney XD on June 15, 2009.
Produced in the United States, the voice recording was done in Canada and the show was animated in Japan and South Korea

I loved how they made Logan more of a father/mentor figure and got rid of the love triangle between him Jean and Scott
Same
I also like how in one of the episodes he threatened to tell Jean Scott liked her if Scott didn’t do it himself. I laughed so hard when he turned around smirking
While I'm starting to come around to that particular love triangle, I still really dislike the whole idea - it just feels wrong.
Another thing that I *LOVE* about Evolution is that we got a better suit for Logan. No offense to the original writers and artists, but what self-respecting man goes around in canary yellow and sky blue?
EXACTLY! That made no sense.
@@Mercy.Beloved thanks! Glad I'm not the only one! 😀
Um, quick question: are you agreeing with my opinion on the love triangle, the suit, or both?
X-Men Evolution, in my opinion, has the best adaption of Apocalypse's storyline in any incarnation.
Yup
That is the truth I loved this show
@Jakazu No. It really wasn't. X-Men Evolution had the advantage of building up the mystery of Apocalypse through several episodes thanks to his acolyte Mesmiro. The episodic format also allowed the writers to build upon the motivations and personalities of the characters, which ultimately had a huge impact on the coming of Apocalypse. This culminated in his eventual revival in the season 3 finale, wherein he truly had the presence of the powerful ancient mutant that he was always built up as, but lacked in most mediums - seriously, he usually comes across as more of a physically imposing cyborg or mechanically advanced alien than a mutant. Truly, It was the first and only time that I've believed Apocalypse to be powerful before any of his celestial enhancements.
As for X-Men Apocalypse, the film is ultimately bogged down by a lot of unnecessary baggage from the rest of the Fox X-Men franchise. Normally I try to ignore that sort of thing to focus on the story arc itself, but I just couldn't. Most of the character motivations were either weak or completely nonsensical. Then you have other factors like J-Law's Mystique drama (both on screen and behind the scenes) and the massive continuity error of Angel existing decades before he was supposed to have been born, and the fact that he was now British instead of American. But worst of all Apocalypse is just as inconsistent.
The DoF end-credits scene built up a lot of expectations for me. Seeing the young En Sabah Nur casually build the pyramids, while being worshiped by seemingly millions was breath taking. His introductory scene as an adult in X-Men Apocalypse was also epic, as was his reawakening. I even liked how they basically gave him aspects of the Shadow King via his relationship with Storm. But then it went down hill. We see Apocalypse use mind control ONCE (when he piggybacks off Charles' psychic link to force the military to launch all the nukes) but otherwise it's suggested that he convinced the 4 Horsemen to follow him to end the world after a brief conversation. It would have made more sense if he had used some mind control to compel his horsemen. Because from what we see, he doesn't even make a very good case for his philosophy. For the rest of the movie he ceased using any and all of his impressive powers, aside from power argumentation, in favor of cheesy monologuing. Honestly, Apocalypse felt more like a plot device to reset the status quo and reestablish teen versions of the previous characters from the OG timeline. I also never understood how this version of the character acquired his tech/armor.
The show hadn't been canceled it would've adapted the Phoenix storyline
Absolutely
I have a huge soft spot for Evolution. Although it was a little silly for the Mutants to be attending high school instead of just attending the Xavier Institute it still worked. Especially when the lid was blown on the character's mutant identities. While it did many new things to cater to younger audiences it made sure to utilize older lore. Like Nightcrawler's image inducer. I don't think any prior X-Men shows did that. Also I marked out when they put Wolverine in his Ultimate costume. If I'm not mistaken it was like the first Marvel cartoon to start using elements from the 1610 comics along with Morrison's New X-Men lore. I can go on and on but I love this series. It doesn't get enough credit.
I love that they attended a regular school cuz it was like seeing how well they can hide that they was mutants. How well they can do things normally without using powers. Also it a way for them to get used to being around normal people. If they just attend their school, then they would get careless cuz everyone a mutant in the school. They probably will forget about the normal people or not care that much about them cuz they haven’t connected to them.
This is why the X-Men should have secret identities like other superheroes
@@sandywolfr26 that's a good point about them attending a normal school.
@@lightheart5 I thought they always did. Must be the newer stuff. 🙄
@@sandywolfr26 True, but not everyone's going to know how to deal with people born with superpowers
"Look he's wearing the outfit. He's on my side!"
"T H I C C"
this made my day oh my goodness
I KNOW RIGHT? And then they got brainwashed but they still got blamed for being on magneto's side like they had a choice??
YES! finally someone who doesn't trash X-men evolution just because it de-aged alot of the x-men
Yeah it’s good stuff. The warmest Wolverine too. I’ve never met someone trashing x men evolution
It made more sense then the comics storyline
Considering some of the characters (Cyclops, Jean, Kitty,)started off as teenagers in their debut in the comics it's not really a deal breaker.
@@mttylerdurden9 what channel did this show come on. I forgot cause i used to watch X Evo
@@IllMatic97 it was on kids WB
This show was basically how I was introduced to the X-men
After watching the all the X-Men cartoons and some of the comics, in my mind, Evolution Rogue was a teenage girl slowly getting used to her powers and accepting herself while the adult 90s Rogue was a woman who was more confident and embraced who she was. She evolved (no pun intended).
Evolution rogue or 90's rogue, who is bae?
Me: yes
*Same*
That's like asking if I prefer chocolate or peanut butter. Why can't I just have Reeses?
Thats hard one love my 90s rogue but evolutuon rogue though
IKR Rogue is so beautiful
90s sugah. Hands down. That booty was so well done.
It was weird how they would fight and then go to school and have class together.
Sounds like just regular school nowadays lol
lmao.
That’s literally the premise of the Persona series.
X-Men did it before My Hero Academia
@@kentinson1670 Yeah but in MHa the students dont have to go to class with the literal villains that tried to kill them yesterday. While at the same time pretending in front of their classmates that they're not mutants. While the principal being a =n evil mutant herself who probably tried to kill them the other day.
I’m happy I grew up with evolution and wolverine but still watched the OG animated series. I remember all 3 equally well.
All three shows, OG Xmen animated series, Wolverine and the Xmen, and Xmen Evolution were all awesome. But I really appreciated and enjoyed Xmen Evolution's young adult/high school feel.
@@anyamiller9014 In my head I always saw Wolverine and the X-Men as a spiritual continuation of X-Men evolution
NK JR My memory mixes the two all the time.
@@nkjr353
Same. I always envisioned Wolverine and the Xmen as the "mature" season that would happen years after Xmen Evolution ended. I even tried to find easter eggs in both or hints to connect the two. Gosh I wish we got more of both. Especially Wolverine and the Xmen which really deserved a s2.
I loved the episode in season 1 called "Possession" and the introduction of X-23. I loved Wolverine and the X-Men.
This show was also the introduction of Laura Kinney (x-23)
I was about to say, also her debut episode was my fourth birthday
It was the BEST introduction of Laura in my opinion and it sucks that we didn’t get a new season where she was rumored to be a big part of
@ULGROTHA X 23 was easily the most forgettable character in x men evolution and logan.
@ULGROTHA this show is very underrated and people barely talk about it some even forgot that she originated from this show even after the movie people are only talking about wolverine they hardly mention her
X-23 is a awesome character and I feel like a lot of people don't know that this show introduced her X-Men evolution is not credited enough for that
Can we acknowledge Gambit accepting Rogue for who she is and her abilities.
Yes
This cartoon was MY X-Men. I really hope the MCU takes inspiration from this cartoon. Especially concerning Rogue. This Rogue is just like Raven from Teen Titans, which of course makes me love her even more.
I can't accept 90s Rogue or X Men movie Rogue. Evolution Rogue is best Rogue
Your right about that. I didn't even think about that. They are the same in a lot of character traits.
I always felt x men evolution was the best rogue because it really showed the trauma and tragedy that comes with her powers, as well as how overpowered they actually are.
@@siloPIRATE Yes! For me rogue has the best look in X-Men evolution
@@smallla1514 Yeah. 90s Rogue just never looked right to me. And her personality was too happy for someone with her powers
I liked rogue's incarnation in this series she actually learns to control her powers which i haven't seen her do just yet
@joel prince Her being a mood
She does it in the comics at one point for a bit before her powers get reset back to 1. Cant remember why exactly.
For me, personally, I liked how they decided to make Jean and Scott teens while Wolverine an adult so they wouldn't use the contrived love triangle subplot.
I understand that it's a staple in the series, but I appreciated the decision here so that they could make Scott more likable as a character.
That and it would be totally gross having a grown man constantly hitting on a teenage girl.
You mean a 18 year old?
@@clubnubdub9079 eight-TEEN
@@partydogs3337 but thats a adult?
@@clubnubdub9079 the person you were replying to only said she was a teenage girl which I was saying was quite literally true since she was 8-TEEN... still called a teenager but yea legally an adult
@@clubnubdub9079 so what’s ur point?
This show has the best adaptation of toad
I completely agree
I LAUGHES SO HARD IDK WHY DJFKHS
For real !
And Avalanche
I loved both the 90s X-men and X-Men: Evolution
Same. Both were good in their own ways. :)
@Erwin Lii LOL I can't disagree, there were a lot of times Jean was just comically bad. But boy was it entertaining lol I still laugh at this scene every time lol ua-cam.com/video/hzc5VHL1bPM/v-deo.html
All 3 X-Men Cartoons are great.
X men evolution all day
@@jturner2577 I agree, 100%!!! Those shows need another Season
This show is the first ever appearance of X-23, she was so popular on the show they introduced her in the comics
like Harley Quinn
Ye when I first heard that i just said WHAT
The rest is history
This is still the only show with a fully realized Jean Grey not dependent on Scott or caught in a love triangle but her own complete person
Well, she still WAS in a love triangle but here she wasn't at the center of it. Meaning she had to be active and not passive.
I'm a DC fangirl, who really likes animated series. I found the X-men: Evolution, and I fell in love with it in a minute. For me, this was different from the other superhero series. They fought less with evil, but I learned more about the characters. After, I watched the X-men TAS, and it was really good, but Evolution is still my favourite. This is the reason why I am a huge X-men fan now, too.
quick silver and wunder were my favourites lol
I saw XMEN EVOLUTION in the title and i CLICKED IMMEDIATELTY
So, I own every episode, seen them multiple times, made me the huge X-Men fan that I am today, it made love it's story structure, character storylines, and costume design, (also, I love how they have more than one civilian look). I love the 90s series and all, but THIS was my show, plus it gave us Dad Wolverine, best Cyclops, Goth Rogue (That episode where it was just "The Craft"), Best Boom Boom, Best Nightcrawler, Best Kitty, Best Toad (Glad Noah Fisher took off), Best Jean (didn't faint all the damn time), (the best of alotta things actually), introduced X-23, and introduced me to a bunch of Canadian VA's who will be the cast of Death Note lol
Yeah the civilian costumes were always strange to me. It's one thing to have all your combat suits look the same but you'd think most of these people only owned one set of clothes.
Do you remember what episode they play the animated series theme song on the guitar??
@GenerationWest Evolution was the best adaptation of the X-Men imo. I mean, going back to the 90s series, Cyclops was utterly ruined. Sure, he was brooding in the comics, but he had a *personality!* In TAS he had the charm of a torn up wet paper bag. Sorry, Cyke's one of my favorites, and when I think about how most of the characters were handled in TAS, I get passionate. And Jean was *definitely* an improvement over her 90s counterpart. X-23's debut was the best, and this series features most, if not all, of my favorite Canadian VAs.
Wait, how'd you get the Season 4 episodes? I can only watch them online. 😂😅
@@cosmicriptid that's one thing I recently noticed about most TV shows, they have the same civilian outfit. As an off-topic example, Ezra from Star Wars Rebels wore the same tattered street clothes up until season 3. With all of these cartoons, you're left thinking, "What, were you born wearing that?"
Oh my gosh, this is the only version of Scott I can tolerate in any of the cartoons. In all the other ones he’s a bland mess who just gets jealous over Jean all the time. It was a huge letdown watching Wolverine and the X-Men after I grew up on this show, it messed up all the characters. I love this version of Nightcrawler… and all the characters, actually.
i love this version of kurt-- his personality isnt just "hi im german and catholic"
Magneto: Lived through a genocide that he was almost a victim of.
Also Magento: Wants to create another genocide in the future.
And so the cycle of vengeance and hate continues on.
Not everyone can deal with people born with superpowers.
This show tricked me into thinking that I loved X-Men. As it turns out I only really just like particularly runs of them. This being one of my favorites
Luke Roberts couldn’t have said it better than myself 😢
Oh, that happens a lot. Read Nightwing some time for an example of hit-or-miss characterization, and be aware that everyone else's ideas of what constitutes a hit or a miss are different from yours.
I do remember there was a bit of a controversy when Marvel hired Devin Grayson to do X-Men: Evolution _because_ of her Nightwing work.
I agree-I think it’s mainly because the movies are pretty bad and because the comics have existed for so long that the writers probably feel like they’ve run out of material and just make stuff more and more weird and dramatic. The romances are too entangled and some of the plots have just been so weird, even for people with super powers. Also not to mention comics are often created mainly with a male audience in mind or even the artists and writers in mind, which sometimes leads to weak yet over sexualized female characters. I always thought I loved the x-men too, but it’s really just the x-men in a more kid-friendly bubble that I’ve loved (and I say this as an adult lol). I’ve been really excited about Mr and Mrs X though, I haven’t had the chance to read whole issues but I’ve read quite a few panels and it looks good!
*Edit:* I'm not talking about powers but about characterization. I love so many female X-men members--Rogue and Storm are some of my favorite super heroes, period. But there are issues with how super powered women are portrayed at times so please read my comment below and research before trying to argue. Thanks! :)
@Jake I'm saying that Marvel and really super hero creators in general often have a problem portraying women not as weak heroes but as weak /characters./ Sometimes I feel like they lose out on character development in some comic lines and seem to just be there as sex appeal. This can be due to the way they're written or how they're drawn. Sometimes they're a really cool character that's well-loved but is STILL tinged in unnecessary constant sexualization (cough Rogue and Wonder Woman cough). This isn't ALWAYS true of course, and lots of times it only happens within specific comic lines and not in their story as a whole, but it happens enough within Marvel in general that I've noticed it ever since I was a kid.
Comics aren't just about the fights and the powers anymore, it's about the reader connecting with the person behind the mask too. The demographics of super hero fans have changed dramatically as well; now tons of girls are interested as well, though really a number of us always have been.
An example of what I'm saying: look at how many weird angles female characters are always drawn in. Their bottom or chest is always visible and they're twisting in unrealistic poses, even in fights. Almost every female super hero I've seen has unrealistic proportions and are way too curvy for their weight. Not every woman is an hourglass (And yes many of the Marvel men are unrealistically muscular but it's not at all the same). Please look up articles about this if you'd like more proof of sexualization in comics. I recommend the article "The Objectification of Women in Comic Books" from Fantasy Magazine.
Also, look at Jean for example in many different storylines, including this show--a lot of times her personality is incredibly bland and only gets interesting because of her powers or Phoenix. Even in X-men: The Last Stand, where she becomes Phoenix and is so out of control they have to take her down, the most notable parts about her is that she [spoiler] killed the Professor and her husband and gets with Wolverine. Bland.
You're right that those characters are some of the most powerful mutants, and hands down they're some of the coolest Marvel characters in general. Can't believe I forgot to give them credit since I love most of them. Kinda wish you'd responded more nicely though. :/
@@KcKc13 There's also the "rape as something that happens to women" trope. What I mean is, in comics, rape is just done to start drama, and it's the only thing they can think of for women.
Cyclops has always been my favorite and I felt like this show always did him the justice that most forms of media (including comics) just dont give him.
I feel like he’s always way too involved things concerning Jean in the movies
X-Men Evolution was **GOOD** . There I fixed it. Christ
X-Men Evolution will always have a special place in my heart. I grew up with it and it is my favorite adaptation of the x-men. Sure it was weird. But I liked the style, and the storylines a lot better. I also really like how Rogue was in this series.
X-Men evolution was the first superhero show I watched.
Me too! It really got me into all the other animated superhero shows.
Same
Same
rogue and shadowcat buffy dance. and the comic books literally always ended on a teen drama moral
The "X-Men: Evolution" comic books were terrible, can't believe it was some actual official stuff... it almost reaches a "so bad it's good" status IMHO
(the issue in which the Brotherhood tries to win Rogue back to their cause was the only one I would have wanted to see animated, in this one the art was particularly bad though).
that dance was every. shout out to the queen of slay buffy! we see you girl. lol!
Anyone else remember when Burger King was giving out mini DVDs in kids meals?
SoulInTheShadow
I actually had one of those!!😲
It was Quicksilver.❤️😏
And I had the toy of him too, but.. I don’t remember if the DVD and toy were a package deal or not....😐
Yeah. But did anyone else stupidly put it in their GameCube?
Yup
Oh god, you brought back a ton of memories. I had Nightcrawler and was so confused. I had never seen a tiny disc like that before.
Omfg bro yes I had cyclops
X-men evolution was the best adaption of X-men hands down in my opinion! I can rewatch it anytime and I love all the characters it was so well done and deserved more
13:33 "early 2000s teenage lesbian goth" LMAO! XD
X-Men Evolution was my crack when I was a kid, this show was my childhood. I was a little too young to remember the original X-Men TV show, I only ever got to see a few episodes that my parents had on VHS so this was really my first introduction to the X-Men and I loved it! This show will always hold a special place in my heart!
Same here!
Same
AND NO LIES WERE TOLD!!
@@BrandonAvery_nblvblbavery what?
@@t-rex4622 Responding to the "early 2000s teenage lesbian goth" part of the original comment.
You should talk about Wolverine and the X-Men which I think was pretty good
It was a great show. It should have had more seasons.
Yeah this was a great show
They were produced by the same person
‘Wolverine and the X-Men’ had its flaws, but it was significantly better than ‘X-Men Evolution’.
Yo that show was awesome
I had the biggest crush on rogue watching this as a kid and grew up to hate Gambit when I found out they were a thing in the comics.
I loved kitty lol, it’s a shame that half the people in the cartoons aren’t in the movies, like quick silver. wander and spike
@@Kylehernand4836 and lance
Abdullah Amr OMG I loved lance
@@Kylehernand4836 he was more complex than some of the brotherhood i wish he would just join with the x men
Abdullah Amr haha but he looked abit goofy when he did join them😂
I just wished lance and kitty would of been a couple like jean and Scot lol.
Also did u notice in the cartoons the X men outnumber the brotherhood but in the movies it’s the opposite?
Also I didn’t like that the movies was so different from the cartoons like in the movies kitty and iceman have a thing, but in the cartoons kitty and lance had a thing. I just don’t understand why they didn’t have lance in the movies ffs.
I’m 21 years old and I’m STILL mad that Kitty ends up dating Lance and she and Kurt never got together...
M. Chedderbeef Bruh yes
That pissed me off so much but Kurt's relationship, with that regular human girl(i forgot her name) was pretty cute and heart-warming and was pretty necessary to add more layers to the mutant-human dynamic.

@@_Frieza I’m a lot of months off responding to this too but i looked it up and it said she was (in the comics) his lover and FOSTER SIBLING wtf marvel
To me x men evolution is the best x men adaption. Rogue was my favorite character I just was so in love with her as a kid. Edit: and Wanda. They were the fucking best!
Yeah I remember growing up and watching both evolution and the animated series. And honestly, evolution did one thing that is rare to do nowadays, and that is have a proper finale.
Yeah it would have been great to have Emma frost, the dark pheonix saga, space adventures and etc with the x men, but for what the finale was, it ended on a good note in my book.
I think this is the the best adaptation of the X-men because it balanced life as an x men and life as a teenager. I also like how it would add characters to the team as the show went on, which is something I felt the 90s cartoon lacked. I also enjoyed the character designs as they were a much more grounded take on the classic costumes. For me personally, the wolverine design is one of top three favorites behind the giant sized x men and the x force designs.
Not entirely sure why this showed up in my recommendations, but glad I clicked. I absolutely loved this show. I actually used Evolution to introduce my kids to the X-Men. Great video
Also, x-23 originated from this show
Patte WHAT
@@bwaco7004 yeah
I saw X-men Evolution first when I was a kid on Saturday mornings. I loved it so much it got me into comics. I shipped Kitty and Nightcrawler so hard. Also fun fact Nightcrawler and Light Yagami have the same voice actor.
Kurt & Kitty FOREVER! =D High FIve!
WHAT
Also, a lot of the voice cast here was also in Inuyasha.
We all have our first. For me, it was reruns of the 1966 Batman series, admittedly decades later. My first foray into Marvel comics was the 1992 X-Men cartoon series.
Im a Kitty x Lance shipper myself. But i do love the show for exploring relationships more than the other X Men cartoons.
The last 2 episodes of Season 4 are some of the best xmen ever. The psionic battle between Horseman Xavier and Jean was amazing! You even got a little hint of Phoenix because Jean manifests a psionic shield in the shape of the Phoenix insignia to defeat Professor X. Honestly, it made me tear up watching this again.
THIS WAS THE SHOW I GREW UP WITH
I love X-men especially STORM 💙💙⚡️🌬
Nazareth Brown Mine are Kurt, Mystique, Scarlet Witch, and Rogue.
I liked Cyclops
lancitty 😍
X-Men Evolution and TMNT 2003 are my favorite comic book cartoon depictions. They have an actual teenage feel being fun and light while being able to show darker themes and subtle nuances in character and story.
I loved this show so much! This series helped me connect to X-men. Spike was a huge favorite of mine! I'm so glad the creators made this character! Honestly, I liked all of the character designs and the way the mutants used there powers. I also loved the fact that the characters talked normally and fluidly like one person just casually talking to another person in comparison to grand standing and monologing, which is a common problem with superhero TV shows.
You should review Static Shock! It delt with a lot of mature themes that are super relevant now!
Yes!!! It wasn't afraid to go "there" (even though sometimes it felt a bit "afterschool special(ish))
I grew up watching it, and it cemented Rogue as my favorite character.
I loved the Fox version of the X-Men animated series and Evolution was a nice quality follow up to that series. I agree with you on the looks of Wanda and Pietro. They looked cool. Rogue was also ok.
Really hope the MCU takes their time and does right by the new adaptation of these iconic characters
I loved kitty lol, it’s a shame that half the people in the cartoons aren’t in the movies, like quick silver. wander and spike
"Early 2000 Teenage Lesbian Goth" is my favourite description of anything ever!
BECAUSE IT'S THE MOST TRUTH EVER SPOKEN.
I grew up watching the 90s X-Men cartoon and used to watch Evolution with my friends after school on the weekends. I've also seen most of Marvel's animated shows over the years.
actually prefer evolution to the earlier x men animated series. yes i corrected it.
yes, I thought I was the only one
emm ill eee 1 i like them both a lot.but i do find my self watching evolution more.
Felix Worthington i am SHOCKED no ones jumped down my throat about it given past experiences🙄
You're a weirdo
Conor McTapout aka 0-1 aka 0 Title Defenses Better than any of the labels that come to mind perusing your "channel".
I loved X Men Evolution, Especially Rogue😂❤️
I've watched X-Men Evolution, and it's actually pretty good.
I loved that with Evolution, the Brotherhood are the 'bad' kids, but they're never actually evil. They're angry, poor, have had rough lives, and the show doesn't skirt around that. They're still sympathetic in their own ways, and each member of the Brotherhood gets moments that humanize them. And in the epilogue, it shows they actually joined SHIELD, and are their own kind of heroes now. It was a very nuanced take on how kids set up with no or bad guardians will be on the wrong track, even if the kids are good at heart.
Toad was my favorite i mean how can u not love him
He had the best theme song0 T. O.A.D *TOAD!* . The Brotherhood were my favorite mutants, I just wished we could have seen more of the Acolytes...
X23 was born in this serie too^^
Shadowcat and her relation with Lance was nice too!
She was underused
I loved kitty lol, it’s a shame that half the people in the cartoons aren’t in the movies, like quick silver. wander and spike
"When people call themselves 'realists,' they're usually just rationalizing being jerks" is actually a really important and useful message for a children's show to convey.
That's the point, not everyone's going to know how to deal with people born with superpowers
This, Specacular Spiderman, Gargoyles, and ReBoot are great shows that ended without a proper finale. Someone needs to start a petition to bring these back. Glad you did a video on this bro. Cheers.
Gargoyles continued on in the comics.
personally i grew up on th 90s series. it really became my base line for x-men. this being said it took me a while to get into evolution. i was a bit insulted by the costumes. To men in the 90s series the costumes felt like expressions of each mutans individuality, which to me was to some extent what x-men was about. When evolution came out and the costumes looked so bland like the movies it felt like a betrayal of the source material. also i may have had a crush on the fuzzie dude, what i will say this the civilian clothing was great, I totally agrea i would love more good versions of emma frost. i thought she was awsome in wolverine and the x-men and fell in love with the her in the i wish she was my teacher way in the X-Men ANIME
I'm so glad to have you back Faust. You're one of my top favourite you tubers
I loved this series. They should bring it back..
I really loved the Morlocks and Spyke plot. In episode "Uprising" you can see how Spyke, this kinda childish and fun-loving teenager that rides a skateboard becomes a real man fighting for freedom and acceptance among humans of "underground" mutants, he strongly believes in this cause and risks his life for his kinsmen. I found the ending of this episode very emotional, especially when Storm said to him "I'm proud of you" as he was descending back into canal with other Morlocks.
when you were saying the show was not afraid to go into x-men's light and dark sides, it reminded me of that time in the series when Rogue, when given the chance to save her mom Mystique and 'be better than her' she (in the most beautiful cartoon animation of a character i have possible ever seen) pushes her off a cliff with this impassioned roar...
on one hand, the show was about kids playing around and giggling with their mutant powers... then you have these moments where these teens make adult, complex actions... like Rogue, who didnt want to show she was better than evil Mystique, she just wants to hurt her...
You should do wolverine and the x-men if this becomes a series
X-Men Evolution was my shit growing up and NO ONE I know has ever watched it and it always makes me sad. I feel the same way when I talk about W.I.T.C.H because no one seems to know that show either.
Will, Rogue, Toph and Raven from Teen Titans greatly influenced my aesthetic
Dude fr I can never find anyone who’s watched this or any other show I watched (I didn’t have cable growing up so I had to watch old shows)
I loved this show. It had such an epic setup for Apocalypse that I wish was sprinkled in X-Men 1-3.
Loved it so much. Also, it gave us X-23 who really got me into comic books back in high school.
I’d love for you to do a video like this again but with avengers earths mightiest heroes
One of the best cartoons EVER, criminally underrated.
The only good Avengers cartoon.
Love you or hate you you were spitting straight facts
Both of you are spitting straight facts
That show was so good yes please Faust
This show was the definitive X-men for me growing up. I think to a certain extent I subconsciously always come back to this when seeing something new with the X-men
One of the few addaptions of Cyclops that didn't made him look like a completely idiot.
Im still amazed there was that one episode of the show that had the generic white girl dance sequence with Rouge and Kitty Pryde
You mean they rotoscoped Buffy & Faith's dance from Buffy season 3, that was a nice hommage to one of my favorite live action shows ever
@@randallflagg3700 they rotoscoped a scene from The Craft and a dance from Coyote Ugly too in the episode Walk on the Wild side.
I think we all like to pretend that episode didn’t exist. Just like Powerless from Avengers: EMH
Yes and I think when I was growing up wanda and rouge influenced me a lot
I loved kitty lol, it’s a shame that half the people in the cartoons aren’t in the movies, like quick silver. wander and spike
Raymond Stevens Kitty has an annoying voice.
Goddess In you lol
Not only was X-Men Evolution one of the most foundational shows of my childhood, but this Rogue X-Men Evo is the best cosplay I've ever worked on making.
Evolution is probably my favorite incarnation of the X-Men.
X-Men the animated series, X-Men evolution, Spider-Man the animated series, wolverine and the X-Men ECT...
X-Men: Evolution was my second ever experience with superheroes [After Powerpuff Girls], and it helped shape nearly every aspect of my life. My writing is heavily influenced by it, and I even spent a few years working on a continuation for it that was intensive enough that I only needed a script and animation skills to turn it into something viewable. It's one of those things that I have difficulty listening to even valid criticism for it.
Watched the show every Saturday morning, really made me appreciate Rogue and Kitty. Any chance of a video on Wolverine & the X-Men?
I miss kitty and lance lol they should have put him in the movies
@Raymond Stevens He was in the movies. He was just some background cannonfodder in The Last Stand.
X men evolution is what introduced me to the x men when I was 6 years old. Kitty pryde has been my favorite x men character since day one, thanks to this show.
Mines lance :) Season 5 could have shown the love triangle Between lancitty and piotr :(
Loved Evolution and all the other animated X-men shows!😆
X-men evolution was my favorite growing up
I grew up with X-Men Evolution as my only knowledge of the X-Men until parents decided I was "old enough" to watch the movies, and I gotta say, I'm glad it was Evolution that I grew up with. The animation style and storytelling were so good and the reason I fell in love with the X-Men, and to this day they still have many of my favorite depictions of characters and story arcs from the comics.
X-Men Evolution was one of the greatest shows of my childhood. All of the teen superhero shows were phenomenal to me (this, Iron Man Armored Adventures, Spectacular Spider-Man, etc.)
i loved this show ,i feel it did rouge right unike the movie's andi like how they linked her to apocalypse,i'm happy it didn't do the phoenix arc ,from cartoon's to movies no one dose it right, i liked wanda in this but feel she was better in wolverine and the x-man
Omg! Someone made a scene were the girls were walking down their high school hallway synched with The Craft scene! It was neat and I can't find it anywhere!!! 📱😵
It was in "Walk on the Wild Side", season 2 episode 13. It'll be on UA-cam somewhere, most of the episodes are on here.
Thanks!!! I'll look it up!!!! 📱😸👍
It’s on tumblr, just saw it a few days ago
Do you have a link?!?! 📱😺
Oup', I found it! Thanks for the heads up! 😺
This series introduced some of the most approachable, palatable iterations of some of the X-Men. Wolverine and Cyclops, for example, were far less gruff in Evolution than they have been over the last 20-some years.
On top of that, most of the characters had plenty of moments to shine--even the New Mutants, like Iceman and Magma, got chances to step up.
It was fun to watch them become stronger over time, especially Jean, who went from struggling to bend bars to containing explosions.
And we were spared from another Phoenix Saga. We were blessed. Let's be honest.
I love that Alex and Scott don't hate each other in this version.
This was my favorite adaptation of this show
X-men evolution was such a great one!
as a kid I was super into comic tv and grew up on Spectacular Spiderman, X Men Evolution and original, Batman The Animated Series, Young Justice, and Avengers EMH and what a good childhood
I've certainly have seen all the XMen originated cartoons and shows. Although X Men Evolution was the one that I would watch as it was developed, still love 90s X Men more as reruns. The 90s one was so iconic and made me get the opening as a ringtone in middle school when many of the people my age didnt even know what it was. I love both these mediums for different reasons, although I cant stress enough of how I hate the adaptations of X Men in almost all the live actions. Choices in actors being one problem while also having such tonal whiplash is so unsettling. Even the act of portraying the Phoenix Force was horried as not Jean seemed like just a pawn without her own agency.
Loved this show. It's my favorite X-Men show of all time!
Evolution was my first xmen show, I fell in love with it. And also I'm 100% on Magneto's side.
I remember reading somewhere that The Craft was a major inspiration for this show, that Scarlet Witches look was based on Fairuza Baulk. Also I loved Boom Boom and her second costume. Lastly Emma Frost is my favourite x man and loved the proposed design.
This is the best adaptation of Cyclops to date.
Superhero Squad. That show deserves some light to be shed on it
Thanos wants to be a chicken farmer!
But seriously that wad good show. It knows how to be entertaining with the mythology gags.
RIP Cyclops’ VA Kirby Morrow
X-Men Evolution is DEATHLY underrated, I loved this show as a kid. It's probably in my top ten of comic book cartoons. Maybe even top 5.
I absolutely love X-men Evolution it was my childhood I watched evolution before the original series and I can honestly say I personally think it was really really well done. I think it deserves more love and definitely more fans. It had different writing with everyone being teenagers but that’s what made it so unique and so different. Not to mention it’s thanks to this cartoon adaptation that we got x-23
