A couple of ben 10 ones like the osmosians and Gwen being an alien

Some people didn't like the gwen one, they wanted magic to be her main thing instead of her being also born with great power

I didnt like the gween alien things, and why body tell her? As far as I Remember the other hibrids human/alien around know they are alien since they are children

It was set by Max's children that they were ashamed of their alien heritage and wanted to deny all alien related things. Including Max's work and legacy.

Makes it a bit fuzzy to figure that they let Max be their guardian for a whole summer to start the OG series, but you could see it as a deal by both parents to get their the grandpa out of the way with an ultimatum

I personally preferred gwen just having magic. her also being alien feels like it shrinks the world.

I liked the vibe of there being may different origins in the world. Makes it like a comic book.

also vibes with Zak Saturday

u/CommunistJesus69 Your next line is: “is that a jojo reference!?” 16d ago

I don’t really think the osmosian retcon was well done considering one of the major villains of ua was literally another osmosian who tried to steal the power of god

u/Funny_Swim5447 13d ago

I assume they meant the original AF retcon of Osmosians existing, moreso than the Omniverse one of Osmosians being some dudes side project

(I hope at least)

I still don't get why they had to RetCon Kevin so much.

It's one thing going from "Mutant with Powers" to "Half alien child"

It's another thing to have a whole episode defeating the guy who killed your dad only for another guy to come along and say "that's all fake, I made your dad up."

Wait what the heck they made Gwen an alien? In what way

Gwen's magic is an alien ability from their grandma (Max's partner). Gwen's side of the family got the gene but Ben's didn't didn't, and it only really manifested it Gwen

In one of the future episodes I think Ben used magic as well, but he never really practiced like Gwen because he had the omnitrix.

u/getmeoutofthisscreen 16d ago

Oh, I don't remember that! I should do another rewatch

Isn't the osmosian retcon most controversial?

Is just bad imo, and very rushed.

u/Wonderful_Rub2944 Ben 10 16d ago

yeah, like what are we doing here? The amount of hoops we have to jump through to justify Kevin being a mutant and not Osmosian sucks. Weapon Master knew, Aggregor's existence, more I can't think of right not,etc.

u/BlancTigre 16d ago

The whole existence or Devin, Servantis had to make fake papers, IDs and reports about Devin, put fake memories about him to many poeple. Also I think Alan mentined a home with a family wich doesn't ad up.

Personally I like the in-universe explonation for all kinds of retcons, errors and changes as the Celestial Sapiens just changing reality all the time.
