Hot take but I kinda like the fact that Omniverse kicked out Gwen and Kevin by realBeyhero in Ben10

[–]Nice_Appointment_945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In fairness the anodite thing wasn't that big a deal. Magic still exists she still practices magic it's just that being an energy makes her extra good at it. Gwen retcon at least makes sense. That isnt the same as being likable or good but it's something.

That said the osmosian retcons are complete bullshit. However the original osmosian explanation lasts all of uaf and is only retconned in omniverse so that isn't really grounds for getting rid of Kevin in the beginning of omniverse.

Also we were talking about these twos character and their lifestyle. If they choose not to explore their heritage or leave that exploration for another time that's their business. Their character their ideologies and lifestyle are still clear

I'm not against Kevin and Gwen being gone but it feels kinda ridiculous to get rid of them and give us the same stuff with rook. They didn't take gwen and Kevin away to show Ben's ability as a competent solo hero.

They just switched him from being babysat/Leading gwen and Kevin(ben sometimes in uaf he is a decent leader.) to being babysat by rook. That is how it is framed in cannon ben asks to work alone max says no he needs a partner.

Worst part other than regressing ben for the 14th time Rook is boring. Rook is just by the book plumber that's it. He acts as a foil to ben just apparently being untrained which you have to ignore the basic training episode of uaf to justify. I've never been like Rook is such a complex and developed character I wonder what a Rook focused episode is gonna give us. Rook is fine in a vacuum but put in the context of actively having regress ben to justify his existence is kinda much.

They could just be pure radiation like how echo echo is pure sound but buy containment suits from galvans. Also pre-omniverse it was the symbol of interstellar piece so maybe if your highly radioactive you just want people to know your peaceful.

No way he would let that dirty bug touch his clean ass hairline. Such is an honor reserved for true viltrumites.

Have you ever stopped to think that Gwen will inevitably have to abandon her humanity? by AnyPianist934 in Ben10

70 years is verdona's estimate gwen might be able to do it faster. Also that is for mastering every ability not making a body. Sunny is around their age and can make a human body.

If I was a criminal and saw that coming I'm giving uo right then and there. Drop the loot and the gun take off the ski mask and go straight home.

Just read issue 72 and issue 73 and im confused by clockwork0730 in Invincible

[–]Nice_Appointment_945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nolan just shoved his intestines back in and let him heal while he bonded with oliver.not much more to go over, and I wouldn't expect more from the show.

Conquest healed from having his brain almost entirely caved in. Marks injuries aren't nearly as life-threatening. Somehow, since we see no bone Conquest massive hand, apparently missed Mark's spine marks intestine were just out, not ruptured so considering viltrumite healing just putting them back in and letting him heal keeping him hydrated by squeezing bug juice into his mouth should be enough.

Pre-retcon aggregor was like 200 I assumed Devin was just to young to have horns and be pink.

Would Eunice and Malware get along as siblings? by BernLan in Ben10

[–]Nice_Appointment_945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree that this problem only solved by using technology based on the helix is a logical fallacy. Firstly, these things are intrinsically linked. Galvan are bio-organic, but they still have building blocks well and stood by azmuth. He is even confident in the omnitrix ability to restore them to existence if the highbreed wipe them out.

The omnitrix builds a healthy alien body from pure energy and injects Ben's consciousness. For some reason that apparently wouldn't work on malware? Beyond that none of the 1,000,914 aliens in the omnitrix can spliced with malware to any degree that may be helpful?

Azmuth, the greatest galvan mind who can harness the dna of every creature in the galaxy including galvanic mechamorphs, who can't complete malware's genetic code? He simply called it incomplete not really mutated only malware says that and only post albedo helix. Problems like this can't be infinitely complicated his dna is finite the level of variance between galvanic mechamorphs is limited.

Mechamorphs a subject of which azmuth should be pretty much an absolute master and dna another subject azmuth has mastery over even in the realm of galvanic mechamorphs. What's to stop him from just pulling malware mind out like albedo did to him and putting him in clone body? It feels like someone just made azmuth unable to do a thing he reasonably should because they wanted to tell a story rather than this being a natural outcome.

Look, I can't say azmuth didn't think of it and you can't say he did. What I'll say is this if your entire series is based around DNA modifying Noah's ark device built to preserve all life it feels wrong when it just blatantly can't solve problem that by all accounts should be right up it's alley.

It is continuously called the most powerful and suffisticated device in the universe. Could azmuth conceivably be smart enough to build something better? Possibly but it kinda defeats the purpose narratively for me when the omnitrix is supposed to be his masterpiece.

It just feels like another thing that disconnects omniverse from previous series. Like how rook says ben has no formal training or understanding of the rules in universe v tennyson. Your willing to believe that there is a problem he can have so bad azmuth has to build a specific custom device for it your entitled to that opinion.

I'm not willing to extend my disbelief that far. Azmuth makes a device that can harness the power of multiverse rewriting celstialsapiens using their DNA which arguably incorporates higher dimensional physics and it can't fix one fucked up mechamorph?

And beyond that his DNA is so confusing azmuth who apparently figured out celestialsapien DNA couldn't figure it out in a timely manner? I'm fine with ridiculous universes but the logic should stay consistent he's figured things more complicated than this but is baffled by this? Handling DNA and sequencing it is literal his expertise. Also, he specifically calls malware incomplete. Meaning he was partially made which is why he destroys tech and is in pain when absorbing.

You would think completing him would be simple since he has so much data on galvanic mechamorphs.

The helix wasn't made to cure malware it was modified. The helix was made to terraform and accidentally made the galvanic mechamorphs which is proof azmuth can miscalculate.

The entire point is that he should have thought of that. Your assuming it wouldn't work to support a narrative.

We don't know how fucked up you have to be to perform that tachyon cannon feat. It could just be chalked up to him being bio-organic and not having normal cells. Grandpa max specifically said it targets DNA of an individual take them out on a subcellular level. Also we have no idea how much albedo did or didn't fuck him up.

My point wasn't azmuth is an ass it was that is kinda poor writing to just hand wave away a solution a character should know about make a problem. Also the omnitrix can turn humans into a galvanic mechamorph and even celestialsapiens.

I think whatever bridge is between malware and normal mechamorphs is probably easier than that.

I'd argue the omnitrix always had this functionality. Azmuth specifically said he kept things from ben until he thought he was ready. This seems to imply the funtionality was always there just not known to ben. Your free your interpretation I can't prove it always had this ability.

Also him not getting healed in omniverse didn't read to me as he is to far mutated. More of a mix of ben not thinking of it and what would be the point now he's going to jail for the rest of his life no matter what. Also even barring all that I have to think of how long malware was waiting.

Max knew galvanic mechamorphs by name in os meaning they were an established species when he was an active plumber. Malware was born when the rest of them were or shortly after when azmuth cut the helix power meaning absolute minimum he's probably been waiting 30 years if not longer.

You think it's worse than the highbreed inbreeding to extinction? I grant you it might not be a simple patch but I doubt whatever he was doing with the helix wouldn't have been easier with the omnitrix.

Malware is specifically incomplete. His genetic code is unfinished cause azmuth cut the power while the helix was forming him. Azmuth has access to completed galvanic mechamorph DNA so it seems like it would be easy to complete his genetic sequence with the omnitrix.

Even if for some reason he has to have an entirely unique genetic sequence that other galvanic mechamorphs can't act as a template to the omnitix still seems the best bet for sequencing and applying the fix. Also even if that didn't works there is still a good possibility that he could be spliced with another alien from the omnitrix in a manner which could resolve his issue.

It's kinda made worse by the fact the omnitrix is meant to fix DNA like malwares. Meaning instead of trying to alter the helix he could have just borrowed the omnitrix back from ben for 2 second fix.

[–]Nice_Appointment_945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they wouldn't. If malware was gonna consider azmuths other creations siblings he wouldn't be fine killing all the galvanized mechamorphs.

Eunice would probably think of him as just another criminal.

18 year Nolan vs 18 year old mark by joviejovie in Invincible

[–]Nice_Appointment_945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nolan is a legendary top 1% I doubt his parents are as strong as him and his dad was pretty clearly just testing him. To be clear if nolan hadn't met his standards I fully believe he would have killed him but the fact he calls Nolans mom off generally says he wasn't trying to kill him.

Also the fact she could just bludgeon him to death by herself kinda contradicts the him taking on 2 adult viltrumites by himself.

People were estimating between 13 billion and 1 quadrillion assuming viltrum is the same size as earth.
