Mmm, I understand everything, of course, we were shown excerpts from a long period of time, but it's still funny how the Forge and Storm relationships were eliminated. So he cooked her something to eat, and now they're already fighting like a married couple. Five minutes together on the screen. As they say, "Yeah, I believe." But this is something that I have noticed in many Western films / TV series / comics, romance is not prescribed at all, just two people plunge into the pool with their heads x)
And... Storm just trusted someone like that? She sees him for the first time in her life, he said that he knows Xavier (and who doesn't know him, Camon), and now she is already climbing into an incomprehensible car. I'm being paranoid, but hz, in a "world that fears and hates them" and they have a lot of enemies, it's not known how else she could have been harmed or information about the X-Men could have been extracted from her. I know who Forge is, but she obviously doesn't) Digging in? Maybe. But it is sewn with white threads. I would also understand if he came to the estate or someone vouched for him, otherwise he got hooked in a random bar and I'll give him back his strength.
@Mr_Knight: About Storm trusting Forge. I don't think it's a fact that she doesn't know who he is. They had never met in person, so she didn't recognize him, but it wasn't the first time she'd heard that name. The X-Men dated Forge in the third season, it's unlikely she didn't know about it. Plus, it's unclear how long Bishop was in the present tense, he could also have told the X-Men, including Storm, about Forge during that time. This, of course, is all speculation, but it seems that nothing contradicting this has been shown. In any case, I agree, of course, that they are in a big hurry...
@romandl: I confess, I watched the old seasons for a long time and in fragments (the first one in its entirety a couple of times, the rest as far as it goes), but from this season it was the impression that she had no idea at all who this guy was and where he came from.
If "something was out there somewhere", then it happened behind the scenes and is not particularly taken into account here, he literally says who he is, what his trick is, motivation, etc. (although I understand that this is more done for the viewer, but still).
apparently, attracting new fans to the series is not part of the developers' plans, and the Inferno saga, which tells in detail about these events, is known to those who have read comics, I think in series 5 everything will be sorted out, and in 6 the Storm will return
Here in this series, the scenario mix has already started. If the Jubilee line is more or less clear, then everything is with the Storm at the speed of light. There is no need to add an extra episode to the season. But the original cartoon was put on review after all.
After the series, I really wanted to play X-Men on sega, it also seemed to me, or in this series there was some strange turbidity with animation, then too static, then on the contrary, as if frames were added
Funny references to a real game from arcade machines, from where they took whole fragments. I played it about ten years ago when it was re-released on ps3.
I don't really like Mojo arcs, like Wildlands and Arcade, they are almost always about the same thing and according to the same scenario. There are very few exceptions.
Why are they rushing things? It seems that they were injected with aids and they were rushing at the speed of light. Here's a comparison with the same Invincible, for example - everything is so measured there and you manage to get into it. And here three arches have already jumped, and, apparently, they are not going to slow down. Because of this, you lose the pleasure of watching. And I recently reviewed old episodes from the nineties - the difference is in the face. Plus, Studio-616 recently released a dubbing of the Spider, it was an occasion to reconsider - and there is a difference in the face too. It would be better to make the episodes more authentic, the arches more measured and not shove everything into one pile.
@countmiktiorkuan: Well, Invincible also has some bias, it's too measured, especially considering how rarely the seasons come out and with what interruptions. So neither here nor there, the speed of narration, as for me, is not too adequate.
@gkalian: This is your opinion. And I'll say this - if it goes on like this, then I'll just stop watching because of this pitch. I was preparing to watch the continuation of the story, which was formally completed back in the nineties, but it left a lot of unanswered questions. Plus, there was also a reserve for the continuation of this universe (where there was a Spider, X-Men and a bunch of other Marvel characters from that period). I think that many fans of the old Marvel have already grown up and many of them have long read the comics on which the animated series are based. And they understand the key arches, know the history of the characters and many other things that were not revealed directly in the series itself. In this case, it is important to reveal this arch in an unexpected way, and this is done through the disclosure of the characters themselves. Here's one of my favorite episodes in the old series, when Hank returned Carly's eyesight. And the arch of the same Phoenix, the Days of the Past Future, the Time Axis - everything was stretched so that they managed to reveal almost everyone. And here they have a million times more budget, better technology, and at the same time this is the implementation.
I've heard that it's one step from love to hate, but I didn't think that Forge and Storm's relationship would fly by as well, only even faster) Somehow, against the background of the first series, it looks the weakest.
I don't really understand why combine two different plots into one series? Well, okay, probably a series entirely about Jubilee and Mojo would not be popular, but at least the plot would move a little more adequately. And so it turns out, half a series for one, half a series for a Storm, and this despite the fact that you can really shoot a full-fledged episode about her and Forge, how a romantic relationship begins, and not this is all with "hello, let me get my strength back, oh, you invented a weapon that removes strength, That's all for now. I can read a short retelling on Wikipedia as well.
In the last episode, of course, I was pleased and surprised by such impetuosity, but there was still one story, not two glued together.
Let's hope that this is just a typical filer series. There is even a feeling that they fulfilled some kind of agenda request from Disney and crumpled all the nonsense into one episode. If this is really the case, then everything is OK)
@gamasmoyk: I have now reviewed almost two seasons of the original cartoon, and there are such episodes there too, apparently they follow the same pattern here) The only thing is that the new version has been accelerated too much, and this episode is just a pancake lump after the first three normal episodes...
Even here there must be fillers, there is no escape from them). And I agree about the relationship, it was too quickly shown that the good old ones were a few weeks later. 😅

I hope Storm succeeds!
