Yes, there will be 80 episodes, but I disagree with your second statement. Since Ben's only been 16 for 82 episodes, and there is 365 days per year. Yes, but in the time that's past, it should be noted that they entered summer at some point during Ultimate Alien and have already past Spring Break (in Many Happy Returns). Their birthdays are in December. See the problem? You do have a point. Considering that the episode "Camp Fear" aired in June, and Ben mentioned he and Gwen's birthday being six months away, we can conclude that each episode takes place around the time it originally aired. If we go by exact dates, Ben should have turned seventeen one day before Malefactor, although, the fact that Many Happy Returns is during Spring Break, we are thrown off track, so Ben 10, along with many other cartoons isn't logical.
