I like how they have messy relationship drama compounded by comic book shenanigans and still have people try to act like grown ups and recognise emotions rather than looking for a fight.

We're all used to Surf Dracula bullshit and comics have been doing that even longer, it throws us to see actual poo poo happening without hours of faffing about

Vegetable posted:Pretty lol that they spend so much time setting up a big rear end galactic trial for Professor X only for him to nope the gently caress out at the last moment and be all “nooo my x-men” (episode 6 spoilers) I love that it basically had Charles decide to turn the tables and give both friends and enemies a literal lesson in Imperialism 101 before rage quitting. Funny thing is, the Empress's crazy sister is right about at least one thing that his loyalties are clearly divided, and as long as he has ties to Earth and his students he isn't fit to be part of ruling a space empire. Also lol that Gladiator is so very clearly Superman, even having similar animation and mannerisms to a lot of depictions of Superman in how he uses his powers. The whole space empire angle is interesting, since both blatantly and subtly they're clear about the contradictions and questionable morality of the whole affair, and how the romantic angle (in a few senses) blinds both the characters and audience to them until they come to a head.

Like goddamn this show came back at just the right time unfortunately, that Genosha speech hit way too close to home.

It's tricky with cartoons since a lot of them rerun the early seasons over and over and you barely get to see the later seasons, though it got especially bad in the 00s where they'd show late season Justice League and Teen Titans like literally once in the middle of a weekday and then bury them.

Vakal posted:Even stranger was with shows like Darkwing Duck or the Beetlejuice cartoon where they were making unique episodes for two different networks to air at the same time. There were two Sonic cartoons running at the same time, the serious one and the cartoony one, because the first one had a network exclusive deal. Apparently Adventures was originally intended to work as a prequel but they realised pretty early they'd diverged a bit too far for that to work. (The serious one is the one with all the extended cast that got brought into the comics which became a helluva rollercoaster ride in many senses, while the goofy is the source of all those Youtube Poops)
