X-Men '97

With only 5 episodes having aired so far, I'm already having trouble thinking of another show that rivals this quality lately. And I'm not exclusively talking about in animation either.

The animation is stunning. The characters are maybe even more endearing than ever. And the story is so incredibly meaningful and masterfully explored that I was engaged to the point of audible gasping, chills, and even tears at times.

I personally watch a lot of shows, animated and non. Disney has done plenty of fantastic shows, from Gargoyles to Gravity Falls. Yet I was still surprised by this revival existing at all, and blown away by its handling.

More like this, please.

I know it's only been 2 episodes and a 10/10 may be ambitious but I can't express how satisfied I am with this!

Recently, us nerds have had our hopes built up by reboots and live-action remakes that left us feeling betrayed and disappointed. Finally, X-Men 97 delivers!

I'm so happy they kept this kid friendly so my generation can enjoy it with our kids.

So far, the show is exactly like you remember it from your Saturday mornings. Nostalgia ensued within the first second.

I can't wait to see what this show brings us. My only complaint is that they didn't release the entire series immediately but I don't think Disney+ does that.

Thank you Chris Claremont! Well done Disney!

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.

X-Men 97 breathes new life into a beloved classic, offering fans a thrilling continuation of the iconic animated series. From the moment the familiar theme song begins, viewers are transported back to the heyday of Saturday morning cartoons, yet this revival feels fresh and relevant. The animation is sleek and vibrant, capturing the essence of each character with stunning detail. But it's not just the visuals that impress; the storytelling remains as captivating as ever, weaving intricate plots filled with action, drama, and heart. What truly sets X-Men 97 apart is its ability to balance nostalgia with innovation. Longtime fans will delight in seeing their favorite mutants back in action, while newcomers will be drawn in by the rich mythology and complex relationships that define the X-Men universe. The voice cast, led by returning favorites and newcomers alike, delivers stellar performances that bring these iconic characters to life once again. Whether you grew up watching the original series or are discovering the X-Men for the first time, X-Men 97 is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates great animation and compelling storytelling. With its perfect blend of old-school charm and modern sensibility, this revival is sure to reignite the passion of fans old and new alike. Get ready to join the X-Men on another unforgettable adventure!
