You're so creepy.

What's wrong with having a little bit of what you like and a little bit of what I like? I like Mohawk Storm from a character standpoint. I just don't care for a character with bad hair / non-conventionally-attractive hair being "the attractive one" of the show.

And fuck Jean Grey.

The fact that you think there has to be an attractive one or a boob queen is what makes you creepy.

Have you ever stopped to wonder, for just a second, why you're getting so bent out of shape over what is or isn't "attractive" in... A literal cartoon?

I've told you repeatedly it's not about fap bait. I'm related to an April, so it's awkward for me to look at that character in a sexual manner. (I still do, but it feels awkward.) I don't like the change from her role as team mom to her role as a fellow teen. Mona Lisa was the hot one of the 1987 series for me.

Going by attractiveness,
Mona Lisa > Venus de Milo > Alopex > Ninjara > April O'Neil > Karai/"Lotus Blossom"

I was equally angry about Skyfall making Q an early 20-something.

It just doesn't come up as often as TMNT. (Maybe 007 would be more relevant if EON didn't actively fight against the baseline appeal of Bond as a suave audience stand-in.)

Id imagine that Disney being Disney will see the success of this and immediately green light new Spider-Man, Hulk and Iron Man cartoons with a similar set up. Also maybe Gargoyles.
The Spiderman series that was on back in the day did a crossover with the X-Men, and the original X-Men series featured brief cameos from Spiderman, and War Machine. Hulk technically too even though it was a robot wearing a hologram. The animated shared universe could very well end up being a thing.

The X-Men appeared in two episodes with Storm returning for a three-part episode based on Secret Wars. They even reached out to the same VAs despite their contracts being up.

Nah, the anime version sucked and they absolutely did both Storm and Emma Frost dirty making them so useless. Sure they look better, but remember the meme of Jean Grey being useless? Everytime anime Storm would use her powers she always gets tired from using it and she would have to get saved everytime.

I'm going to assume you're being hyperbolic about being "fuckable", but yes, when art resembles features in real life that are key to cause sexual attraction, It activates people's neurons.

The entire point is that this specific cartoon doesn't, as much, and that made people like Fortune angry, because they want the characters to be more sexually attractive

You appear to be misunderstanding. It's not that the characters are too sexually attractive, it's that certain people have been complaining that they aren't sexually attractive enough

A lot of times these "cartoon characters" are purposely designed to be sexual and be attractive. Appreciating the artists' intent is no issue. We can enjoy all the fruits of their labor which includes the story, character development, their powers and the way they're designed.

Don't get me wrong, I understand the idea of "This character is portrayed as being sexy" and yes there's not really anything wrong with reacting to that

However the biggest controversy over X-Men '97 is people complaining about things such as "They didn't make Rogue sexy enough" and that is the weird shit

I don't care about woke / anti-woke. I care about what I personally find attractive. I'll give the animators credit for trying to have sexy characters, but neither of them are doing anything for me.

Regardless of fap bait or lack there of, I'll be sure to give X-Men '97 a chance after I rewatch the original 90s series. (I make no promises on when that's going to be.)

There's nothing wrong with that as I'm not gonna try to shame someone for being horny (though I do think they're weird as fuck for doing so), but I was trying to say that the anime X-men series was just fucking awful to begin with, the biggest sin is that it's just boring to watch with the only two things it did right was the dub voice work and art style. In comparison X-men 97 where my only complaint so far is the fast pace (especially episode 3) and the exposition heavy diloague in episode 1, but engages you almost instantly with its story and great character moments with the huge upgrade in fight animation was just a joy to watch, by far the best Marvel related property on Disney +. If they do an anime version of X-men, I hope they ever forget the adaption they did in 2011 and start from scratch.

Old school X-Men was never my favorite to be honest. Nelvana had an animation style that, while it looked nice, limited the action that could be performed on-screen. Fight scenes are practically in slow motion and the characters mostly talk about things rather than engaging in conflicts. There were some standout episodes and standout characters though.

Odds are that I'll enjoy X-Men more as an adult than I did as a child, but I'm still not expecting it to be as enjoyable as Batman, the Animated Series or even Spider-Man '94.

In comparison to episode 2,yeah Episode 4 seems like a downgrade. The pacing was way too awkward and them stuffing two different plots together in a 22 minute episode didn't help it either. If both of these plot points had its own separate episode, I think it would've ended up much better.

The way it feels to me, is that they may be setting up multiple mini episodes as a way of establishing congruent events.

They didn't even make Rogue less sexy.

The complaint is literally just "they didn't make her butt as big as that literal one still from the show where she's deliberately poking it out", which makes the whining even stupider.

Rogue's bust was larger in the original series. It honestly looks like they transferred a few cup sizes to Storm. Under normal circumstances, I would say that's fair.

But Rogue isn't as interchangeable as the other X-Women are. She's on a page all her own.
