Why do you both seem so upset by him?" YEAH-the major problem with the new show is that's....pretty bad at establishing villains. What if this were my first series, how would I KNOW who this is? No dude. That's like saying, "What if Omniverse was my first series, how would I know this?" Or Ultimate Alien, Alien Force (sic). I feel like people are just trying to pick on every little thing they can about the reboot to prove that it's bad, even though it isn't.

Well, the thing is Alien Force, Ultimate Alien and Omniverse were set up as sequels to the original show (each following on from each other), whereas this is a reboot, designed to retell the story. Even though I think the reboot is good overall, I do dislike how it doesn't establish villain origins, and how Ben's met most of these bad guys before. I also dislike how it also skips over Ben's origin. Then again, ASFAIK, TTG and PPG2016 did that too.
