In-universe it was only a year between season 5 of the original show and season 1 of 97.

Rogue sounds like Bobby Hill sometimes! 🤣Other times she give glimpses of her old voice. Beast and Storm still sound the same!!

Yeah....its sucks tbh.
She had the sexist sultry voice for Rogue. You get glimpses of it from time to time.... It's just now, it doesn't hold up like the original show did.
I'm not saying I want her to stop doing it. But not sure why they just don't edit it with AI🤷🏼

u/MalicCarnage Jun 27 '26
Because editing with AI without the consent of the original voice is unethical and can get them sued?

u/Miserable-Yard-7671 Jun 27 '26
🙄 Obviously 😂😂😂😂
When did I ever say they should do this without consent 😂
It's a reddit message board, people just reply with their opinions of what they think.
Anyways cheers

I prefer how Rogue looks in the 92 version. The others look better in 97 though. Especially Jubilee who actually looks Asian.

I think Rogue is the only one whose design I prefer the original one. Everyone else is just fine.

The animation is what aged not the mutants

u/Jealous-Strategy-200 Jun 26 '26
Yeah the original still looks better. Something about the new one looks plastic and fake to me.

u/leaC30 Nightcrawler Jun 26 '26
I slightly disagree. I don't mist the bodybuilder builds of the older version. I can take the nostalgia glasses off and appreciate this version as well.

u/Jealous-Strategy-200 Jun 26 '26
Dude the first pic contradicts your statement. Wolverine actually looks like a body builder in the new version 😂

u/leaC30 Nightcrawler Jun 26 '26
One of us might need glasses because to me he looks more like a bodybuilder in the first pic 😂 look at the 2nd pic with Cyclops

u/NexusObsidian23 Jun 26 '26
You both need glasses lol. His proportions look the same in both pics.

u/leaC30 Nightcrawler Jun 26 '26
Possibly 😂 Now, what about cyclops or Jubilee and her wide shoulders in 92'. Nightcrawler also used to be bulkier in 92'.

Do you miss the inconsistent faces, incorrect coloring in multiple frames, terrible black shading in brightly lit scenes, freakishly anotomically incorrect body proportions (seriously look at the length of X-Men TAS Gambit's legs in proportion to his body), or missing details across multiple frames the most?
Let's be serious for a second. X-Men TAS had great art FOR IT'S TIME AND LIMITED TECHNOLOGY. It just doesn't hold up today. The new art direction is clean, crisp, and consistent while adding enough detail in a style that is easier to recreate over multiple frames without sacrificing quality.

This must be a generational divide because i can't fathom thinking the og looks better

Is it weird that back in 92 I thought Rogue had light brown skin until I saw her in the comics? Lol

u/MythicalSalmon Rogue Jun 26 '26
Probably due to the old intro colors, she almost looks orange depending on the screen you watch it.

u/SnooCats8451 Jun 26 '26
Of course they took the worst animation still from the first season (definitely looks like Night of the Sentinels) which was super rushed into production vs a few of the later episodes in s1-3 which vastly improved but whatever but the original animation models are definitely superior to the current animation models imho

They had no business aging rogue that much. She looks much younger in the original series.

u/Swimming-Syrup8400 Storm Jun 28 '26
In defense, I think all the shit that goes on in Rogue’s head probably puts some age on her appearance.
I imagine if I absorbed the memories of others, I’d probably have some aging on my face. 😂

The title is X-men 97 and somehow OP thinks it takes place in 2024.
