X-Men '97

The nostalgia hit hard, but it was more than just a trip down memory lane. The writing and character development in these initial episodes were on point, adding layers to the already rich world of the X-Men. It felt like catching up with old friends who had grown and evolved.

What impressed me the most was how "X-Men '97" managed to capture the same feels of the original show while also elevating the storyline in just two episodes. As someone who watched the original series as a kid, I was beyond amazed to see how it was modernized while still paying respect to the og source material.

This show has reignited my love for these mutants and their struggles, and I have no doubt that it will continue to deliver the action, drama, and heart that fans have come to expect from the X-Men universe.

Bring on the next episode!

Had decent expectations as the original series is a classic (for me). This is a continuation but doesn't suffer from any particular issues usually seen when a production is revived after a long time. If anything, this revival exudes welcome nostalgia while fusing modern touches. Animation is solid and the action pieces are the highlights. Voice acting is just as awesome as it used to be (no irritating voice characterizations). Not to spoil anything but the characters are, as always, as real as could be to the original print comics. Am stoked and hope this series goes on for as long as it can. 9/10 from me for episode 1. Vinaka from Fiji.

This is the impression I got from just two episodes. This series deals with classic X-Men themes like prejudice, discrimination, hate, injustice, fear, and bigotry against mutants by humans again, but I felt like they were doing it in a more mature and improved way. I also gladly notice they didn't make a Wolverine show, and every mutant character is getting equal screen time and development, especially Cyclops getting what he deserves and shining as team leader. It's also welcome to see characters like Bishop and Morph join the X team. I liked Magneto's acceptance of Xaviers's human and mutant coexistence agenda and his decision to become a new leader of the X team because that made him a more three-dimensional and ambigious character rather than a one-note villain. This sequel is also very loyal and respectful to the old series and the nostalgic feelings of X-men fans. They are using the same character models, voiceovers, opening intro, closing outro, and music with improved and modernized animation. They didn't use the same opening stock footage intro from the first episode for the second episode's opening intro, adding new characters like Magneto and scenes to it, so obviously there is no laziness in this show. Overall, I got a very good impression from this reboot and sequel, and I'm looking forward to watching new episodes.

A perfect blend of nostalgia and a freshness. I can't wait for more episodes and the story lines to be extended. I love the similarities of the 90s series and the new version. Many of the actors have been signed on for the series which is a great for continuity. I love that costumes, characters and stories have been updates for a more current experience. This new series is definitely worth a watch for fans of the original series as well as new fans. So far, the characters appear to have more thought out personalities, values and powers which is really cool to watch. I'm really keen to see how they integrate more characters into the cast.

X-Men 97 is everything a fan needs the story is great the animation is new an fresh the story arc with magneto and all the new members. As a X-Men fan this is perfect just perfect the upcoming story of the dark pheonix and the goblin queen. The return of frask and other plotlines keeps the story fresh after 27 years I can't stress this enough watch the show if you are a fan or not a fan this is by far the best X-Men show in a long time . I am excited for all the new episodes coming up and the future plotlines. I must say the show deserves 10 stars for its animation alone . It makes you excited for future episodes. The show is perfect.
