Alright let's do it this way BartekKrakowski , 

Yes, I can't just convince you that I prefer Omniverse to be a superior portion of the Ben 10 franchise, because you seem to have your mind made up, as do I.

You also listed reasons of why you thought Omniverse was bad, which to give you credit is a lot more effort than other commenters, and a lot more logical, because it allows creative debate.

However, ultimately you're asking, "Why do people like Omniverse? Why is it well- received?"

And the simple answer is: those that like Omniverse see those reasons you listred differently.

For example, the art style. You may not like it, nor the action sequences. But for other viewers, it is a lot more detailed and shows that the art crew care a lot more about the character and set designs. Like Ultimate Humongousaur. Or the Way Bads. They could've saved money and just designed one and duplicated it, but instead they created like a dozen completely varied designs. Each one didn't get more than a few minutes of screentime, but they still did that. Or Albedo's aliens looking cosmetically differest as opposed to just having a different eye color. The dedication seen there is what attracts viewers like me.

It even attempts to create genuinely unique alien transformations, instead of knock- offs like Eatle and Fasttrack. Eating and super speed? We've seen those before. Lego- elasticity, gravity control, internalized star power, atomic blasts, sleep reading, fear? That's new.

Many of the OV fans also see the episode plots as a lot more solid and explorative of their world. We got an alternate dimension Ben; a nearly succesful Incursean conquest; a great villain story revolving aroung the Nemetrix and Malware; an Undertown of aliens; visits to Rook's homeworld; the Gourmands' planet; a time- mindswitch with 11- year old and 16- year old Ben; the return of characters/aliens like Kai, Wes, Lucy, Phil, Patelliday, Upgrade, Ghostfreak, XLR8, the Halloween Trio; and now this current arc is going all alien Halloween. For the fans, those plots sound interesting and bring real potential, as opposed to a trash monster or a lame alien plant monster (which the OS did a lot better).

So there it is. While you share an opinion, others may not. And you can argue all you like, but I doubt it will change their stands, because we see Omniverse as entertaining, fun, and worth watching to be a part of the Ben 10 franchise. Is that fair?
