lets go!!
remember homie..it aint the amount you know its the love you have. you one of us mf! #NERDLOVE
Scarlet Witch from Multiverse of Madness vs Broken Rogue pay-per-view right now.😅
Well Rogue made sure Wakanda got Cap’s shield back 😂
Amazon Same-Day Delivery! 😆
@@djoscartjThat's HI-LARIOUS 🤣
We needed a post credit scene of cap taking a long ass walk to retrieve his shield 😂
Being a black woman who’s an XMen fanatic and watching you two now gives me so much joy and pleasure. I randomly found you both one day and now after I watch the series, I look for your reaction videos to feel the connection and admiration of the series together! Thank you both for being so real and honest and to my future husband in the orange bandanna…. Come and find me handsome 💋
Struggle soldier ? 😂
If the orange bandanna and black glasses name is Struggle soldier then yes! ❤ I’ve never heard his name mentioned before since I recently joined the channel but I just adore him! He gives me husband vibes and he’s an XMen fan so win win ❤️
Ma'am! 👀💅😆
@@Shestayswet yep he is struggle soldier
😅😅😅
Trask: "I have nothing."
Rogue: "Same, sugar."
Poor Rogue! But also, DAMN!!!😱😱😱😱😱
The X-Men was always a tough story, I’m so glad the writers are taking it seriously. They’re compressing years worth of story into half-hour episodes, but doing it WELL! This has blown me away so far. And I’m glad to be on this ride with y’all.
they have trimmed fat from every storyline lifedeath without rasta native american demon or forge standing next to gyrich as he depowers storm, they did birth of nathan/inferno without bad dad scott, e for extinction is a story the expanded on considering the comic handled what happened in 3 pages, they even took a storyline from an era fans consider the worst(nimrod+master mold=bastion) and made it better. this team of creators is killing it.
But they fired the writer, Disney is kraizee
@@jovanleonardi1574facts. Their taking the best X-men stories and mixing them well. Whatever Bastion’s doing with Magneto I don’t know might be something exclusive to this series.
Anyone glad we get to see Cyclops get some closure knowing His son Nathan is still alive and is Cable?!
Cable didn't give af 😂
@@lustbubo4638old man usually give None.
Yeah. Especially after they bitched Scott out in the third episode. 😭
@@lustbubo4638Are you saying Madelyne may have given Cable a memory of how Scott walled out the room saying be is not apart of Cable getting help in the future.😅
@@lustbubo4638 imagine you go back in time and your dad isn't the hero you heard he was(yet!). a part of cable really does love his dad, the leader scott will become.
Saw on another Chanel that Rogues crying when Nightcrawler comforts her was actually genuine. Apparently the actress had lost her niece at the time of the recording so she poured her heart into that one
Actually she lost her niece about a week before crying over gambits death and that while episode
Dayummmmm
@@Vitafiend Still hurts 😭 I honestly hope she’s doin alright
@@Vitafiend Oh god. I met her last fall too.
Can verify. She repeated the story this weekend.
This show is closer to the feel of the actual comics X-Men than the 92 show was.
It really is. It’s hitting a lot of the marks I wished the old series did.
Bastion came in HARD. He's the mastermind.
He's in the photo with Forge in ep.4 --- He is actually seen walking across the camera in ep. 5 during the gala -- And the intro that shows Nimrod coming out of Master Mold's chest are all the major clues.
He's from the future -- a fused being of both Nimrod and Master Mold.
Dude is a BEAST
I also like how Bastion is opening the door to all sort of other possibilities. Gambit horseman of Death, Summers Rebellion, Onslaught. Everything is possible now.
Rogue caught a glimpse of nimrod.
@@Nabneet1507was it Master Mold and then Nimrod? Hm, interesting… 😈
@@MathewWoodard yeah. Look closely at the visions when rogue chokes gyrich.
he's going Misery on Magneto's ass
The guy is named Bastion. OZT is "Operation Zero Tolerance"! This was a huge deal in comics back in 96'! Lord help us all! 🤦🏾♂️😩😢😭
I'm not ready😮
@@toukdee I suggest you see a therapist before this Wednesday because I have a feeling that we're all going to need one!
5:48 Rogue's finisher move from Marvel vs Capcom! Now this, puts a smile on my face 😌
I swear Xmen 97 is the best thing to happen to Marvel and Disney plus right now....
I’m actually glad that Wolverine is taking a back seat in all of this because he’s normally the focus especially when it comes to the movies. I’m glad they’re focusing a lot more on other characters.
Me too. Still hope we get at least one berserker scene though
He was never the focus until the movies… if you go back and watch the original cartoon that this is continuing he was just part of the team
Well that's where the movies made the mistake, they treated Wolverine like Pikachu for Pokémon, making him the mascot. The X-Men are a team and a family, everyone gets their spotlight.
@@ComicPhreak Yup, writing a team is much harder than Hero's Journey. Writing in this show is truly impressive. First comic book media in awhile that made me want to pick upa comic book again.
@@YattirSmithidk bro he took the spotlight up in the OG plenty
Rogue had no time for Cap's nonsense ☠️🤣
***Shield Yeet***
@ascottpgh00 he gonna be searching for that shield for the rest of the season 🤣
@@chaq34tony will have something to find it but damn she bullied him lol
@@writingref his face said "naw she ain't have to do me like that tho" 😭
@@chaq34 right?!!
oh thank God they didn’t make Jean faint and not be able to catch that building, she threw that shit far💪
Waiting for her to be acknowledged as an OMEGA mutant🔥
This show does characters great
@@AB-zl4nhshe’s Omega on her own. The reason why she can host the PF at full force is because of it. And she’s basically PF in the comics and is the most powerful incarnation of it (white phoenix of the crown, above green and dark phoenix). Only omega-level can host the PF alone like her, Hope Summers, and Kid Omega. Rachel Summers is the loophole as she’s not considered Omega nowadays but she hosted the PF for the longest time.
Emma Frost cannot host it at full power. The Stepford Cuckoos need 5 or 3 of them to host it. The Phoenix 5 storyline where Cyclops, Emma, Magik, Colossus, and Namor split the PF between 5 of them and had fragments only.
@@AB-zl4nhthat’s kind of like the problem with Jean because they always tie the PF with her, and people that don’t read comics think that she’s only powerful bc of it which is not true. That’s why I want them to stay away from PF for a long time and just let her shine on her own so that people can understand how powerful she is on her own.
I agree. The one thing I hated with TAS is their portrayal of Jean Grey. X-men evolution did right by her. No phoenix force and didn’t unnecessarily pass out from doing the bare minimum. But was also a badass with her telekinesis. This episode made me proud and hopeful for how they’ll keep portraying her
All I wanted when this show came out was for them to portray Jean as the badass she is in the comics and not Scott's pansy ass fainting arm candy like she was in TAS, and they hit that nail on the damn head every single episode! This show is awesome
If we ever get Avengers vs. X-Men in this series, it would set the world on fire!
Maybe we’ll get a live action version in Avengers: Secret Wars
Hopefully it’s the 80’s version. The superior one.
Not really it would be what two episodes? Lol.
I think they are building to an X-Men vs. Avengers storyline. They are already working on season 2 and 3, so they have a long-term plan in mind.
@pauldavis5665 correction!!!!
Season 2 is already complete. They are working currently on season 3 annnnnd correct me if I'm wrong, but they have been picked up already for season 4!!!!
Every episode of XMen 97 is proof that good writing still exists, and we should celebrate it more. Everyone involved is doing an amazing job. Writers, artists, voice actors, soundtrack, everyone is doing gods works.
It's probably safe to say that this is the best Marvel since End Game.
Wish list how many seasons should we get of this glorious series. I say a minimum of five what about you?
@@hamhockbeansbring beau de Mayo back… if whatever he was fired for isn’t irredeemable
It's getting ready to surpass The Avengers, Civil War, Infinity War, Endgame, No Way Home, etc...
If Lenore Zann doesn’t win an Emmy or some kind of award for her Rogue, we riot.
They didnt just do comic justice. They IMPROVED ON THE COMICS. Like the comics they pulled from had good ideas but the way they strung then together is fantastic.
I liked Rogue's turn in dropping Trask; in normal superhero stuff the good guys don't do that. It's much more realistic for her in her anger and grief to feel justified in doing it. And even Wolverine agreed with her. As you said, this is no kids show!
THIS 👆🏾 comment 💥👏🏾!!
If you recognize his voice, Bastion is played by Hector from Netflix's Castlevania.
Even I had a hard time placing it.
Theo James
Crazy how this episode started like endgame did, pulling at the heart strings. Night crawler at the beginning had my stomach in knots talking about gambit.
When rogue dropped him and said “My man” sent chills but you can even respond bc 0.5 seconds later she got punched in the mouth 😂 great writing, feels all over the place
She must be talking about Magneto... he good tho
I'm calling it now. We gonna get an X-Men and Avengers team up in the finale against Prime Sentinels
Rouge went to Mexico to see Gyrich so she'll most likely get blamed for his death and I don't see her teammates believing she's innocent after dropping Trask off of the top of the building.
Jean could just probe Rogue’s mind to find out it wasn’t her
She did try to kill him, and she tried her best to suck the soul out of him...
@@MathewWoodard- that might settle the feelings among the team, but how will the humans spin it.
That's the problem - anything the X-men or mutants in general even defend themselves; they get labeled as a danger & a target for elimination.
At the point you think Rogue give a F what the people think and gambit dead ,and no way the xmen turning on Rogue for these people so war coming 😊
"Damn Rogue, i didn’t know you was gangsta."
I WAS WAITING FOR Y’ALL TO DROP THIS😂😂😂😂💯💯
Took a whole day😂
X-Men 97' season 3 finale should be a movie split into 2 or 3 parts.
Needs to be seen in theaters.
- that would be cool if they were able to bring the animated characters into the live-action MCU
- THAT would be WILD.
Yes
That would depend on the viewership of this show. Marvel likely doesn't have the confidence in making a theatrical release for characters that have only been seen on streaming. Especially one that follows a 90s series.
@@jp3813 They had the confidence to make a movie out of Guardians of the galaxy, the E shelf. I dont see how that is harder than this.
@@gabrielfarias6273 That was way before the failure of The Marvels (2023). Even this show's first episode didn't bother doing a recap of the 90s series. Hence, it's already a tough sell for viewers who are unfamiliar w/ the latter. As opposed to the Guardians who were being introduced to all moviegoers.
This one was a depressing episode for me. Last episode at least had a tragic yet triumphant Gambit death
Rogue on a warpath, pulling out her Marvel VS Capcom Divekick *chefs kiss*
Mannnn the stakes keep growing in this show!
This is a version of Captain America that in the MCU's Civil War, would be on the accord's side haha
Love how this episode showcases how terrifyingly strong Rogue is, since she took down a military base that was meant to contain the Hulk, keep in mind she currently has Captain Marvel’s powers in this series.
“How much you got left?”
“Enough for me.”
🙁
😂😂
Dude that shit was hilarious 😂😂😂😂
“Oh they snapping!” Facts 🔥🔥
I don’t know why I keep forgetting Morph is part of the team. Every time I see a new mutant I get excited and think it’s actually them at first 😂
Dont feel bad, ive watched a lot of reactions to this show, and EVERYONE forgets its Morph for a sec 😂
I thought that guy was Gambit, like an angry future gambit hiding his accent or something
The guy in purple is Bastion and he gonna fuck shit up
I'm just shocked LumpyTouch is here 😂 the real purple monster of YT. 💜
Ironic considering the voice actor for Cable voiced Gambit in the original series 😂
I remember watching this as a kid and it made me cry. It made me upset when people treated the mutants so horribly and how wrong it was. The original series has a special place in my heart and I love how 97 has built the story arc from the source material and improved the storyline that serves every character well. One of the lines (of the many) I can’t stop thinking about is when Morph says “Is this who we are now?” after Rogue drops Trask. Such a great line. And in the previous series, he was a victim of Sinister’s mind control after he was abandoned and left for dead after a sentinel attack. Morph infiltrated the mansion and sought revenge for being left behind but he had a redemption arc. Rogue is in a mental state of vengeance. I love this show. So many layers to unpack!
I have a LARGE feeling Bastion is planning on making Onslaught. He knows Charles is alive, he's keeping Magneto alive. It feels like it just fits.
Something thing I enjoyed about the series is how they included every character from the Marvel comics outside of X-Men.
Thank you... someone who understands that quality takes time. And we need to wait how ever long we need to wait.
Gotta be honest, I’ve never really been a huge X-Men fan. I liked some characters like Wolverine and Storm but for the most part X-Men never grabbed me. This show is what’s making me a fan and makes me wants to buy their comics too.
The lack of give a f-k when he said “enough for me” had my crying 😂😂😂
"Coming up next: Doug."
That line fucking got me XD
An outstanding reaction video, guys!
And you are correct.
This series was made for adult X-Men fans who grew up watching the 1992-1996 series who are in their 30's and 40's.
Definitely, not for kids.
And things are about to stay at 11 with Episodes 8, 9, and 10.
The X-Men, and mutantkind as a whole, are about to go to war against Bastion and Operation Zero Tolerance.
And Cable is the key.
He and Future Forge will be the key to stopping Bastion and his forces so that the dark future does not happen.
And there will be a schism in the X-Men.
After this conflict, things will not be the same.
The way there doing all this crying sounds so real and had tears in my eyes
"Bright eyes, dark eyes, cyclops eye, eyes Jubilee will close forever". - Melisandra, i mean Jean Grey
I really thought you would have lost it when she yeeted Cap's f***ing shield 😂😂😂
Hes Bastion. Ozt operation zero tolerance. he was in ep5 twice. hes nimrod fused w mastermold fused w the techno organic virus
You should've known it wasnt Magneto. He wouldnt have done that to Genosha. Also it would be very unlikely that he would be working closely with regular humans
Hell yeah! Been waiting for y'all's reaction since the episode dropped. It's wild that Captain America coming back in this show is actually *LOW* on the hype list for this episode. Dark Rogue is something else, good lord. So badass, and somehow even hotter than normal Rogue.
I think its also because, 90s kids who are now in there 30s/40s have seen Cap previously be in the Xmen and Spiderman series
When a TV show is so good you have to put down your jello, lol.
I addition to the mention of Hulk and the appearance of Captain America, there was a Stark Industries sign in the background when Jean and Cyclops jumped out of the building.
That was Bastion, who was shaving Magneto
I haven't said this since what Bruce Timm and Paul Dini did with the DCAU: They understood the assignment.
Dude at the end is Bastion, a futuristic sentinel.
If the 90s series was like this kids would be emotionally wrecked. A adult story is not just gore, heavy profanity and sex. It drama and high emotion that hit hard. For a kid who take cartoons way more serious than adults it would traumatize them. Hell remember when Prime died in Transformers the movie. Kids was so effected their parents pretty much made the animators bring Prime back.
Well, thats why they saved Duke in the animated film too. Hence the "he's in a coma" extra line. Too many kids-myself included, emotionally wrecked.
The old series is for kids.
This new series is for the same kids now as adults.
Awesome show. Brilliant
Onslaught is coming!!!
Rogue launched Caps shield into the multiverse 😄😮
Dude... I choked on the Xavier with an Afro! 🤣🤣🤣
While in theory they might could bring this level of quality to live action, I doubt they can. It’s something unique about cartoons that’s hard to translate in real life. Let’s just appreciate XMen97 while it’s here. Let’s just support this show and hope we get more of the same.
dang rogue mad mad now its personal
If you think what that prime sentinel did to the team was something wait until y'all see what Bastion and Nimrod do lol
Well, I started crying right at the first minutes of the epiode..
Greatr show!
Nice to be here with you sharing this!
Rogue really said, "Go fetch!" to Cap 😂
They're already working on season 3. So, hopefully, season 2 will be coming around the same time next year at the latest.
"coming up next, Doug" hahaha. reals.
This episode was amazing! I'm hyped for the 3-Part finale starting next week!
Idk if yall noticed but Rogue pulled off the Divekick move she has from X-Men vs Street Fighter/Marvel vs Capcom!😮 same way she did her jumping Heavy Punch on a sentinel in Ep5. Watch some matches by the best Rogue in the world, VDO, and you will see what I mean.
I hope cyclops' line, 'they need hope' is foreshadowing.
My skin is vibrating and my goosebumps are dancing to the sounds of this theme song! As a comic book fan; as a 90s X-Men fan, I didn't know how much I needed this until it was reborn! Normal or Dark, I am grateful it has risen from the ashes!
That last rant can by cut/print/sent to Disney ad infinity. I think you summed up what we all are saying. They're doing this right, they respect the history and characters, and even their "writers bias" isn't full on "preachy". I just hope this show get the awards its due.
I just hope they get the original 92 voice actor for Apocalypse, if able and they bring him in. I want the final line of episode 10 to be "Look upon me and despair..."
John Colicos was the voice actor for Apocalypse...but he passed away in 2000....so they're going to get someone that sounds similar...like how they did for Cyclops.
@@jlo1195 Didn't know that VA was gone. Sucks. It'll be hard to top it.
@@jlo1195 So is the OG Magneto.
Did anyone notice the "Stark Industries" sign in the background when Scott and Jean jumped out of the building?
it's rumored that Basteion (I am tripping his name to shreds lol), the new bad guy, is Nemrod, the super sentinal in all white that they keep showing in the intro. He first appeared in the original series when Bishop first came in and we had the episode where Wolverine and Storm were a couple. Nemorod is unable to die bc he can put himself back together in a matter of seconds, even though they defeated him he never went back to his time. So in theory, Basteion is THE super sentinal evolved.
“How much you got left”
“Enough for me.”
“You have no idea how it feels to be left behind by the future!”
*when you can only afford to eat Jell-O for dinner*
That dude is Bastian. Get ready for Nimrod and the onslaught that comes with it.
The dude about shave Magneto's head and berating Sinister is Bastion. Bastion is what happens when a Nimrod class Sentinel from the future; follows Bishop back in time, and merges with the Master-Mold Sentinel. Basically Nimrod + Master-Mold = Bastion.
"Y'all off the hook. Where's my jello?" - 4.26.24
Bastion!!! Absolutely crazy!
It's like they made this show for the adults that were kids back in '92! We need Beau Demayo back for the next seasons!!!! 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
14:19 was looking forward to your reaction to this moment
Great episode. Enjoyed your reaction
Bastien is a BEAST😢 he is going to be a real problem. He said y'all villains had issues defeating the X-men since '92. 😂 yikes!!
Absolutely agree, they need to bring X-men 97 team to help developt the live action version in the mcu, so far from this series you can see the love and care they put on these characters and their story
"How does it feel to be abandoned by the future"
Then the "Future" comes back to save Scott
The writers of this series are professional miners because they mined the hell out of the comics for this storyline.
New here, but it was so refreshing watching a reaction from people who actually understand the X-Men.
We all need a Nightcrawler to be our words of wisdom in the worst and best of times
The new Grey haired villain is Bastian. Spoilers :
He is a future human sentinel who creates Operation : Zero Tolerance. Unleashes an army of highly advanced Prime Sentinels on the X-men.
Iceman had to step up and save everybody.
I like the Ecomog opening! It's more inviting. Love your work guys ❤
Man I could not wait for yall reaction man
Been waiting for yall reaction and you’re right the end of the season gonna be crazy might leave us with a cliffhanger, and we supposed to be getting more seasons too mannnnnn
I'm just going to say, as kids we read all this stuff in comic books, it didnt mess up, we loved it. I think kids can handle this 'adult' stuff
Seriously, this ep made me even happier that I met Lenore last year.
The New Guy is Bastion (I didn't remember, I had to look it up), I also thought it was magneto the first time I saw him in the comics
"how u holdin up?" hahahaha RIP gambit
DREW: (I couldnt even eat my Jell-O)....DEAD 😂😂. JOE:(How much u got left?) DREW: (Enough for me!)....😂😂😂DEAD peak comedy 😅😂
i need unlimited seasons of this
