Hey guys OTK here, I just wanted to leave a general comment to say thank you to everyone watching and commenting. It really does mean a lot, even the comments with different opinions and views. I’m really enjoying the mini conversations we’re all having here. I replied to a few and I’ll do my best in the future to continue to interact with you guys. Please look forward to watching the rest of the season with us ❤(sorry if this was corny 😅 I’m just really appreciative)
Your passion for these character and these stories, not to mention your knowledge of the comics, is absolutely marvelous. It’s so good to see such a joyful geeky deep dive!
This episode hit true X-Men fans hard.
I'm talking about hurt
The second that Genosha was presented as a mutant haven in X-Men '97, I thought, "well, hopefully we won't have to see the whole Cassandra Nova thing. Thank goodness this is a continuation of a children's series!"
RIP to: Banshee (certified badass X-Man, given no chance to shine in this series), his Nobel-prize winning lass Moira, Dazzler (WAY cooler than people give her credit for), Marrow (really!? like her life hasn't been hell enough!), Shaw (good riddance to bad rubbish), Leech (poor kid), Callisto (legend), Madelyn (already!?), and poor little Sammy Pare (we didn't get to see him rehabilitate Cain Marko) ...
This episode had me leaking from the eyes even before hearing Magneto - speaking in his native German - try to salvage a promise he made to a child...
And then Gambit...
It's been a couple months, but I'm still trying to walk this one off.
Welcome to the support group.
Honestly this episode re opened so many traumas 😂
Hi, I'm Vincent, and I witnessed episode 5.
*(Cries uncontrollably)*
XMen 97 is a TV show for adults masquerading as a cartoon for kids.
Yes man the 90's cartoon had mature themes and undertones. But this making references to sex shocked me. Imagine the 90's cartoon like this. I love this show.
My sentiments exactly. They just continued the animated series for us at this stage in our lives and I'm not mad at it❤
Agreed
It grew up with us millennials, I like it but am sad that kids won’t get something childish and dumb to love from it
@@TheBiggestMoronYouKnowNeither did we.
The Watcher’s appearance in the sky after the Rogue and Gambit “break-up” scene sums up the importance of the event.
The fact that they usually had Gambit as the comic relief. Then getting played. Then the badass sacrifice. They knew exactly what they’re were doing
"There is no love without sin. For love is best measured in what we forgive"-- Kurt "Nightcrawler" Wagner
It sounds cool and all but operating only on that vibe leaves the stalwart and ethical vulnerable to Narcissists. So definitely a nugget, but needs to be balanced with several others
@@Stanlos It is definitely an over generalization about love but is it that far off the mark... people are far eager to forgive faults in people we love versus people we do not.
@@dkt4377 Believe me, I know. But, in all endeavors, there must be balance. Narcissists are real and will prey upon those of good nature who are suspected of operating with that stance as their overriding virtue. It is admirable; it is a strength; but, every strength can be made into a weakness. Balance helps to shield against that.
@@Stanlos Sadly, narcissists thrive on the naiveté of those who love blindly... on that point, you are correct.
@@dkt4377 It is scary! Obviously, I have only recently learned this lesson. It was quite an experience
The episode that broke everyone.
absolute shambles
Everyone
This episode had so many jaw dropping moments I couldn't believe.
From Jean and Wolverine kissing,to Cyclops snapping on the reporter,to the reveal of Madeline and Cyclops's psychic Affair,to seeing Nightcrawler (im glad to see someone react to Nightcrawler hugging Rogue like that)
Dazzler,Rogue and Gambit breaking up,Rogue and Magneto's dance and finally that final attack by the sentinels.
This 1 episode surpassed the entire Fox Adaptation of the Xmen.
MAGNETO "WE WILL NOT LIVE OUR LOVES WONDERING IF WE COULDVE SAVED MORE"
GAMBIT" GAMBIT SEES YOUR BET AND RAISE IT!!"
Don't forget the Watcher cameo in this episode.
Technicallly GAmbits marriage was annulled !!!
That's exactly what I remember
Exactly! Thank you!
25:38 Gambit already told Rogue that he loves her in the 90’s animation. I believe his actions clearly indicate his feelings for Rogue and she knows this.
ruclips.net/video/dg8P0NKcUe8/видео.htmlsi=l1EPAJ9dlldzwT6o
they both loved each other but rogue wanted to to be able to touch so if you watch the original series, anytime rogue had the choice she always chose that. like with cody and when she was going to get the mutant cure
"Magneto was right" t shirts sold out
Spoiler:
Mister sinister: “who’s gonna tell him?”
"How often must the scoundrel prove himself a hero before he believes it himself." Professor X's final words to Gambit hits different after EP5. Au revoir, Cajun!
An apt observation of Gambit... this episode personified his heroism.
You guys are real ones
As a matter of fact Rachel Summers was indeed in the original series, she appeared as one of the Psychics captured by Apocalypse in Beyond Good and Evil arc.
OTK-you are so right. Thank you for pointing that out. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the og series, but she’s definitely in one of those tubes. ❤
Rogue descending in that red dress, AoB with the PERFECT song, the devastation, the knot in my throat from gasping-crying...this episode is an ABSOLUTE point in my life now.
Rogue has been and always will be my Favorite X-man, X-Woman, lol. But I swore she figured out her inability to touch others in the Original Series, love her, but she needs to see there is far more to intimacy then just the physical! I Can't think of a time Gambit didn't think or her first!
One of the best reactions I've seen and I've watched so many.
Glad that someone loves seeing Emma as much as myself
From tears of joy seeing your favorite comic book characters come to life to tears or horror reliving some of the heaviest events in comis, the way you emotionally connected to Eric when he flashed back to WWII as well as all the heartbreaking moments, truly the best reaction I have seen thus far. Can't wait to see the rest. Subscribed
!?
I hope Wolverine goes Berserk and avenges Gambit
Same!
A week later, Wolvie still smashing the Wild Sentinel's pieces at the bottom of the crater
X-Men are out here punching fans in the heart. Ow!
First time here. I'm liking your reactions, guys. Subbing.👍👍
Girl you are a real fan so happy i discovered you. You got a new supporter here❤
Your reaction is the best. This is exactly how excited i was and exactly how devastated i was. I puked i was so mad.
This is a storyline from the comics that came out in 2001.
The "Wild Sentenal" kills almost everyone on Genosha, and was sent by Cassandra Nova, Professor X's twin sister.
16 million mutants were killed.
This will be a largely unseen comment, but it's so gratifying to see someone else geeking out over the mere sight of Pixie, Glob Herman, and Exodus ... this episode had so many cameos from so many years of X-Men comics. Too many RUclips reactors walk into this with a vague, childhood memory of the Animated Series or an idea that they know the movies, so they know everything. Nice to see a proper expert.
5 mins into the video and you've definitely earned a subscriber with "oh my F it's Exodus" :)
Your reaction was similar to mine being overloaded spotting all the cameos and being hyped for each. So many reaction videos sat confused through that all thing but if you're a comic X-men fan this show hits on a whole other level.
The genosha comic is strange because it’s clear Morrison didn’t really care about killing a bunch of mutants
This episode of X-Men ‘97 is brought to you by the letter E… which, as we all know, is for Extinction
The director confirmed that here she is early twenties on twitter when people raised their eyebrows and started calling Magneto with the P word. Just clarifying.
Good I’m glad. An argument could be made for grooming on Mystique and Magneto’s parts, I did feel uncomfortable hearing Rogue refer to Magneto as “a nice man who seemed to want to help”, but I appreciate the showrunners making sure Rogue is presented as an adult woman who made her own decisions and Magneto as a grown man who respected those decisions. The soft retcons in this show have been terrifically implemented.
@@nahthanksno8299 i mean the relationship still feels manipulative and the power dynamic seemed out of balance in the past. now he is manipulating her into getting back together by covering it with the "it will help mutants" and knowing she is so touch starved she is very likely to accept the offer. not the p word, but definietly not a healthy relationship for rogue
@@eugeniamarch you are NOT wrong. I like to think Magneto realized it at the end, especially after he didn’t make a scene when she ended things, but holy hell he and Mystique did a number on poor Rogue
OTK- hey yea I saw that after watching this episode. I was definitely way too distraught to think clearly about their ages lol But I’m glad that we’re having this conversation. Even for the things we love we should look at them critically and be able to discuss these topics. And boy does Raven do a number on Rogue over and over in the comics, so this is very in line with who she is.
@@raylessandrelucent Well to be honest, I never doubted her age during her first relationship with Magneto and while it wasn't healthy, no questions about that, Rogue literally looked like an adult, the art said everything because a 13th year old DOESN'T look like that.
The review was from days ago, so forgive me if you've already come to terms with Gambit-- but I'm probably as die hard for Remy as you are for Rogue--- so if I may clarify the idea of Gambjt's wife:
Because if we're talking about Belladonna...then no-- he is NOT married. That ended forever ago when she died. And I feel the comic series at that time, specifically Xmen vol.2 early issues, did an excellent job portraying how two adults deal with the complications of such a scenario. Their date night was both of them coming to terms with the fact that they BOTH hide the truth from one another.
Now, regarding the animated series, Belladonna manipulated the ever living shit out of Remy ("da Tithe🤣"). He walked away from that life, and while we don't know the specifics of how he joined in the series-- he wanted to be a better person. The episode "Xternally Yours", reconciles his past and he and Rogue become more official.
Fast forward to the finale of season 2 and Gambit STRAIGHT UP tells Rogue "Gambit never say this to anyone....Gambit....love you." And they finally kiss.
Fast Forward to Asteroid M, and Gambit nearly sacrifices himself to stop Fabien Cortez's coup against Magneto.
Fast Forward to THIS series, this episode, where now we have Gambit explaining to the audience that his and Rogue's relationship was kept simple. He respected her wishes, her space, but even in THIS series, shows she is the only woman he has eyes for. He could ha e anyone and makes her his one and only.
So. Yes. He made VERY clear what she means to him. And she sat in her personal secret, until the day he dies (ofc she didn't know he'd day this night, but that's the tragedy if it.)
Let me also say that I actually deeply empathize with Rogue. She was my favorite Xgirl for decades and they are my favorite couple in comics. I'm not on here bashing her or calling her trash. I love how complicated it is and how honestly the show expresses the feelings she is wrestling with.
However, this is the same reason that I have to speak on behalf of Gambit. Because my guy KNEW what Rogue was doing since episode 2 and didn't blow her spot, didn't shit on her...but after all they've endured, he felt deeply hurt. And STILL, is man enough to graciously walk away "just friends"--- like...DAMN. What a guy punch leading up to the heart stab of him dying to end the Genosha threat.
-- also-- I'm subbing. You guys are great!
Maddy already had visions of this tragic catastrophe way back in Episode 01 when she was using Cerebro. For her to be obliterated like that in the first bomb blast after seeing her baby Nathan all grown up is a tragic end to Jean's clone.
This hit so hard. Yall are great and super knowledgeable. This episode tore me up too
I am somewhat obsessed with this reaction video. I keep coming back to rewatch it (usually by starting off with the Ace of Base shout-out, lol).
This why 90s kids are built different 😂.
First time seeing this channel and the girl is so infectious! Love all her nerdy talk and insight! Subbed and gonna check out the channel after, so cool to see her geeking out about the references!
Your take on the Gambit, Rogue, and Magneto stuff was a mess. Gambit is not, not being honest with himself, he was just trying to play it cool and not show how hurt he was. And when Rogue finally told him what was going on he handled it maturely and with class. Even though Rogue kind of blind sided him with this info.( Though he clearly knew something was up)
Exactly! 👍🏼
This was the best reaction to this epic episode. Subscribed
I don't know where people are getting this idea Rogue was a child when she met Magneto. In the comics she was in her 20's minimum and even in the show they make it clear she didn't leave Mystique until she was in her 20's
Damn her reaction was a mirror image of my own haha and yet I am a grown ass man😂love this reaction guys❤much love from New Zealand 👊
The Rogue/Magneto relationship does actually happen in the comics. In some alternate timelines they even end up married w/kids. But Rogue was like 15 and Mags was like 40 when they 1st met. Rogue joined the X-Men around 18/19 and in this series she is in her mid to late 20s. just a year or two you ger than gambit(Who btw is a hybrid clone of Cyclops and Mr. Sinister himself!)
Gambit was always my favorite X-Men member and damn is OTK knowledgeable she was calling out all kinds of mutant cameos also did Ekard used to have another channel something about getting outta the hood
Ekard - Yup, I still have that channel for anime shorts (used to be JOMA but Jouten's retired from making anime content). The channel is @omnikardanime
This channel was my main channel back in the day before JOMA as it was just Kpop reactions before I revamped it to be reactions in general for all types of media
I LOVE her energy
here is a real reaction , i cry a lot for the last murlocks and magneto , thanks for upload this amazing reaction
I hope they do Scott & Emma. They were couple goals and supported each other as equals.
BTW, the Genosha arc you want is E is for Extinction.
This seems to be that story combined with Mutant Massacre and Hellfire Gala.
I've subbed as you've shown a serious x-men fan cred. ✌️
First of all, Gambit’s marriage in New Orleans was arranged.
Did y'all noticed the Watcher at the beginning of the festival by the fireworks?
whoever wrote this should b hire in marvel universe..i cried like a baby on this episode..btw love ur reactions😘
"Look at our world" Realest shit ever
Your videos are good. I feel enriched. I even learn.
Awesome reaction.
Keep in mind that Madelyne wears her hair down, and Jean wears her hair in a ponytail. Loved your reactions. Subscribed ❤🩹
Someone pointed out in the first couple of episodes, in the “Jean Grey” title card, her hair is down but from episode 4 forward, it’s in a ponytail. That’s some peak attention to detail.
11:33 "Watcher" moment.😮
In The Animated Series that this is a continuation of, Rogue found out about Belladonna. Gambit left Belladonna.
Magneto. Can Create wormholes a form of teleportation. He doesn't do it often but he can do it
Or his power is nullified by Leech, making him undetectable.
Rachel summers was actually in the cartoon. Well, the original 90s xmen show during the beyond good and evil arc where apocalypse was kidnapping psychics throughout time. Since 97 is a continuation, I guess you can say she has technically made an appearance. I wanted to know who the other mutant psychics were because I thought they were all from the present, but they weren't. I knew who Rachel was, but obviously, it was impossible for her to be in the current timeline. Interesting thing is at the end of that arc, all the psychics combined together to defeat future apocalypse. So jean could have easily known. Same thing when she was phoenix and knew about scotts dad.
love your reactions!! ya'll need to do more tv series/anime together!!
Ekard- We definitely are! I'm editing more to come to our youtube for this channel!
First time seeing you guys!
RESPECT to the comic knowledge though I think these are more strictly following the 90s animated series storylines than the comics counterparts. For instance, the series covered the Savage Land but there was no Magneto-Rogue element at all, and this take implies they connected outside of the Savage Land.
I do think Val might be a Prime Sentinel by Bastion. That's why she wasn't targeted by the Wild Sentinel and you could argue she was directing mutants to their demise in the chaos.
Did you see The Watcher at the start of the Gala scene?
YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME! #subscribing
Any chance you guys could get the volume for the show at about the same volume for your microphones? I’m turning up the volume to listen to the show, then BOOM one of you says something and it’s like screaming in my ear. lol. Love your reviews. Just a small ask.
Not mention that the way Magneto used the train is very intentional symbolism - the man who was enslaved, who chose to stand up and say "no", made a pariah, empowered himself and those around him, was labeled a terrorist for it... he used the train like a whip. the whip being a symbol of how oppressors keep the oppressed down on their knees and afraid. he took that weapon of fear for himself and for everyone else like him and whipped his oppressors back.
There are other Rachel's in the multiiverse, and she even has a cameo in episode 8.
love your point at 19.30 - I do believe Rachel was shown as one of the captured psychics in beyond good & evil though - although who's to say that's not 616 Rachel considering how often she goes missing...
Thats exactly how i felt im still messed up over it
Ooohhh current comic readers ❤❤❤ subbed lol
We should have known this would be a problem when we saw the watcher in the sky
The expression on magneto's face right before the big blast was chilling. He knew right then that he was cooked.
And the way Nightcrawler looked around him as a blast was being prepared. He was in a crowd, and it seemed like he was quickly calculating who he could BAMF away.
Have no fear.
This episode did a ton to redeem the thirsty simp characterizations of Gambit, Magneto, and Wolverine. Regardless of how anyone felt about these pairings and how these men pursued Rogue and Jean, all 3 of them were proven to be men of character who respected these women and their choices. God I love this show so much
OTK, you are a sweetheart!
Great reaction. I definitely was thinking about the people of Palestine as tens of thousands of civilians are annihiliated by the IDF. The mirror is quite real right now, a huge reason i was balling by the end.
Straight from new X-men 114
Remember it.
Powers do work in the Savage land in the 90s series Mr. Sinister takes over it and has a machine that shuts down mutant Powers unless you are wearing a mutant collar.
Age of apocalypse
Ayooooooo, where DID you get that Rogue sweater?! 😂👀
OTK-Tee fury I think. I got it and the start of the pandemic, so a long while ago. Hopefully by our next recording I’ll have a proper answer for you. 💚💛
New to the channel and working my way through your reactions to this show. Really great content! I don’t know what your editing process is like, but in my opinion, the videos might benefit from sometimes cutting to just one camera. There are a few times while Kayla is “cooking” that EKARD comes across as bored and/or distracted, which pulled me out of my own engagement. I’m sure that’s not what is happening, but just a thought for a potential improvement. Excited to continue with these reactions though!
Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaakkkkkkkkkk this is for the 90’s not this new ones , Christ oh mighty, I have watched this episode and that last line hit me still .
Just read the wiki for "Wolverine and the X-men", when I learned that the angry hothead loner and biggest simp in the world, the guy that jumps into action without even thinking became the leader of the X-men, I kinda threw up in my mouth a little bit.
Why does Marvel keep pushing Wolverine with his Adamantium claws out into our arses over and over?
Why does Marvel keep making the X-men a stepping stone for Wolverine? (FOX already beat them to the punch)
Why does Marvel keep trying to make "Fetch" happen?
RIP Gambit for however long your death will last - You will always be my favourite. ✌️
I agree I love the 90's though and this one. Not overpowered or a try hard.
That series was produced by Fox.
@@pjny21 It’s true! 👍🏻
Only when they moved to live-action FOX turned the X-men into background decorations for Wolverine, X, Magneto and Mystique.
Legion was interesting and other projects showed some promise, but...
...It’s really good to have something actually about the X-men in almost 30 years.
lol so why are we blaming Marvel?@@lo_souza
@@pjny21 "Wolverine and the X-Men" was produced by Marvel Entertainment and Kevin Feige. That was my complaint...
When they decided to do something with the X-men it was all about Wolverine all over again. (I did not watch it, just read the wiki)
Genosha was attacked by Professor X's evil twin sister Cassandra Nova in New X-Men 114. 16 million mutants were killed in the same way as in this episode by a wild Sentinel.
If bro says this is a soap opera imma lose it
Re Rogue, you’re going on about the comics Rogue and the shit Gambit done in there.
But those are diff versions, Rogue has to be judged on this version….and she is being the absolute worst here.
OTK-you are right. Comics Rogue and 97 Rogue are sliding door characterizations of each other. But we can’t deny the influences that 616 has on 97. She’s definitely not being the worse here, that’s a stretch. She’s just a woman still trying to figure out her shit. And in an ensemble show it’s hard to get character development for everyone. She’s doing what she can to get control of her powers and what she feels is right for her people. Even if that means denying her feelings for Remy to help Eric on Genosha.
I’m excited for what comes next in the comics but I’ll miss the Krakoa era.
❤
❤❤
Jean is acting like if Tom Hanks in Castaway came back and was like, "What, you staying with your husband?! That's not right!"
U do realize that if Cable was given a DNA test, it would say that Jean is his mom. Plus, in the comics, Maddie was going to happily sacrifice him for power
OTK-I’m in the camp of Maddie did nothing wrong in the comics lol but yes you are right, technically dna would show Jean as his mom. And I’m was just touched that he addressed Maddie as mom because in the comics he sees Jean as him “mother”. Just thought it was touching that this Maddie and cable get that moment.
your marvel xmen knowledge is outstanding and the only reason I watch xmen is because of gambit and rogue.
True, Rachel Summers is an anomaly but she actually has four or five versions of herself in the multi-verse.
OTK-you are so right! Reading your comment made me remember the Exiles Rachel that’s in a relationship with Kitty in one of the universes. ❤
Oh and Racheal isn't an anomaly. There are several versions of her. She's rare but not unique
The only thing I didn’t like was how they knocked out Sebastian Shaw so quickly, nonetheless Beau DeMayo’s writing is 🤌
Her reaction was the exact same as mine: Hands over mouth, frozen solid for like ten minutes.
It was the OG show's Gambit that got me INTO comics in '92. I was ten.
This episode hit me like a bullet train.
Hab keine Angst 😢
It's possible that the blonde woman is Mystique
Power Cord
Nice reactions but alot of audio issues with voices cutting in and out from your reactions especially from OTK.
To think had he not gone the death toll would’ve been greater.
Rogue was a teenager 18-19 when she was adopted by Mystique. She's in her mid to late teens. And y the Gambit hate? Basically only the original x-men have good backgrounds. And no one thought Rogue was a bitch, that see her as human. Remember the only reason Rogue joined the X-men was to control her powers. If she already could, she would've still been a villain
OTK-well hmm ok, but we do have to admit and discuss that people do have stronger slightly more negative options of Rogue over the last few weeks.
And I’m of the camp that I wished she stayed a villain, but after touching Rom The space knight , it does change a girl lol
@raylessandrelucent options? I mean opinions? Ignore those fools because everyone goes through that choice and has the right to choose for themselves
Yo PLEEEEEEEEAAAAASE turn the volume up on the vids you watch. I cant hear anything
