hopefully next season returns to season 1 levels of peak

Krype

Did they get new writers or something? This was very underwhelming compared to S1.

King of New York

I thought this season was absolutely fantastic.

bleach

The first few episodes were peak but rest of season was not it

GameGod

I doubt it will because they changed the whole direction of the season after they fired Beau, but I'm hopeful

Tbdovan

Lead writer of season 1 I'm pretty sure got let go

Shiki Granbell

This season had a good start and build up with Apocalypse, especially with Mangeto’s death. However, everything afterwards felt like filler, and the execution of the end was underwhelming.

Isaiah Torres

Upload that damn bleach !!! (Unless yall waiting for lupa in that case take all the time yall need 💙)

Jones

Beau DeMayo wrote the first half we shoulda known after a random Wolverine episode some bs would happen.

Inconspicuous Pug

It’s a shame there was no Magneto levels of “Do not make me let you down” of peak, but it was still solid

Carlos

Season 3 is done and ready, and they're working on 4. Show is cooked. 😢 😭

Carlos

Original writer was a sex pest and got himself canned. He had supposedly outlined this season but they apparently threw most of his shit out.

King of New York

The previous showrunner was fired before S1 released but the scripts and storyboards for S2 were finished by then. Some additional writers were brought in as well, probably to tweak/alter things. You can see that every episode has the previous guy (Beau DeMayo) along with 1-3 others given writing credits.

GNEISS

xmen is like A LOT i feel like if this season was like 20 episodes it would have really cool, they coulda done something like the later seasons of young justice where they like have short arcs with different characters

Raymond Terry

First four started out well enough and then it was disjointed. Loved the Polaris & Danger (room) stuff, but yeah.

JJ

Nice opinion

J Man

Season 2 was good, but they speedran a bunch of storylines. They should have probably held off on giving Bonerine back his claws, and maybe even the Danger room episode to next season.

Bakagio

i didn't hate this season like most people it was just nowhere near season 1 Plus Jean and Cyclops felt like they just got left out of the story for most of this season.

Kahele Kea

Hate how Nightcrawler had to do this

Chris Johnson

To explain, The Celestials are the entire reason that mutants exists. They split humanity into 3 species. The Eternals, the Deviants and regular humans but with the X gene

2026-10-05 14:00 I'm giving this season a 6/10 overall the first half started off really good and then after that it just went all over the place. The stuff they did with Gambit was weird I didn't like it and it got resolved way too quickly the final fight was anticlimactic asf. And my biggest complaint was what they did with Magik cause what the heck was that sh!t. I'm thinking she would come back as a horseman but nah she stayed dead from the stupidest thing to ever kill her a fricking laser of all things that she could've easily avoided. Rest in peace to two goats they didn't deserve to go out like that. Oh and I liked the Polaris/Danger episode that was really good too but other than that this season was just a mess. And I hope season 3 returns to the former glory of season 1.

Daniel Turner

They need to bring back the original writer for season 1

RedSunCrusher!!!

Oh and another thing I'm severely disappointed with what they did with Charles. I'm thinking that he was gonna get a power up or something but nah they sidelined the heck out of him they could've given him a lot more to do in my opinion.

DatBoi Lol

Was waiting to binge this but based on this title maybe it’s ass lol.

J Man

Wild guess, I wonder if they sped past everything so fast, because they were trying to burn through all the material written by the OnlyFans dude they fired (I'm guessing that through the credits). My guess is he wrote everything up to the end of Apocalypse, so next season should be new writers.

GrayStark

This season was fine but the first season was the best thing Marvel has put to screen in a long long time. Really hoping it can return to its form.

Sare

The writing died with Magneto.

DevilMayCarter

There's something to be said about wanting to like something and not just liking something. X-Men 97 is a good show, a great show, that doesn't mean it can't have a second season slump like many other great animated shows have had. Nightcrawler was such a huge emotional reservoir last season and he came in midway through. For that being the payoff for Kurt and not feel anything makes me a little cross ngl. Never thought Bastion would be the better bad over Apocalypse but hey. Hope they can rebound for Season 3.

Keenan

yea its like mfs fell asleep after magneto died and forgot the rest was posed to be good too

Hatty Time

The beginning where they continued the Apocalypse storyline was fine, but the X-Factor and X-Force stuff felt rushed and not much nuance. Danger episode and everything else felt like disconnected filler. Still liked it but hopefully S3 is better.

GameGod

I feel like episodes 5 and 6 was literally an ad for the wolverine and tokon game.

Asher Ealey

I feel like they tried to do what the old cartoons did where they had standalone episodes that were meant for world building and character development. The problem is that, you can’t do that with only 9 episodes. They also built up not ONE but TWO major storylines. But then decided to half ass both. Wasn’t a bad season but it definitely was disappointing

Krype

6/10 is generous

Tre

This season fell off so hard whoever they have on season 3 needs to start using some nose candy to get the they creative mind flowing right so we could have some gas again

Nick Vaughn

So much shit was rushed this season from Wolverine getting his adamantium back to Gambit being revived as a horseman. They sidetracked way too much from the Apocalypse plot to the point where I have no idea what his ultimate goal was. Why did he specifically want to revive gambit and steal his body? It’s such a shame because of how strong we started only to really fumble the ball in the end.

Lezu

it's because the celestials are picky eaters and need more powerful humans to populate the Earth whether they be mutants or not. Apocalypse would cull the 'weak', and so was given a celestial bbl or something in exchange. That's pretty much it, that's why Eson always mentioned life when speaking to Apocalypse or Nightcrawler. He was intrigued with what Nightcrawler was saying about more life via sacrifice, especially since Apocalypse will be missing until some other season.

Monarch of motion

I think this was a build up season, like s2 of windbreakers

Who Knows

i feel like this show is being held back by marvel tv show writing. No identity, plays it too safe, no thorough message or impact it wants to leave the audience with.

Marlia

The problem is that they treated the season like it would have 22 episodes instead of 9, 20-minute episodes. The overarching plot was lost after Magneto died. The Wolverine (way too rushed), Polaris, and Danger Room episodes were not necessary. They flew through the storylines way too quickly. They didn't acknowledge what was happening. After Magneto died, we don't even see how the team processed his death, especially Rogue. The X-Factor and X-Force stuff was forced into the narrative and was too quick. The season should have focused on the rise of Apocalypse. We should have spent more time in the Past/ future with the teams. Magneto's death should have happened in Episode 6/7. The episode after that should have been them processing the loss and trying to envision a new path forward. Then the season should have ended with Gambit becoming the Horseman and coming to Rogue.

Marlia

That was another thing I noticed about this season. The dialogue was weak, especially after Magneto died. Season 1 had so many memorable lines from different characters, not just Magneto, especially from Cyclops and Storm. "Make them mind your weather, and them weather your mind" is still one of my favorite lines in the show. We didn't get those kinds of conversations between the characters this Season.

Ghost

You can tell they took Beau’s path for the first half and then the What If disney writers took over. They definitely cramed so many storylines and tbh they did the first season too but they also stayed on one linear story the whole season.

YungZeus

either make more episodes or make them longer, because jfc.

Blank

Lupa would’ve loved seeing cable get blasted … I miss him bad

ShaquanVirse

This season was hot ass ngl. Even if you know the lore its hot ass. So much shit was rushed. The first 4 episodes were the best episodes of the season then shit went downhill

ShaquanVirse

The series never bothers to explain that so it feels like its expecting us to be comic readers like Roshi said. Yeah you and mean know but not them or your average viewer

ShaquanVirse

4/10 season cause i think were episodes were solid

RedSunCrusher!!!

Nope it was just rushed as heck and it was juggling too many storylines which is very unfortunate.

HiiiPOWERseries

The problem with this season is they didn't have enough episodes they spent half the season building up next season which is stupid either they needed more episodes or they should have focused on the whole season on apocalypse. Wasn't a bad season just not peak like the first season

Saphthings

This season was pretty good for a cartoon. It's just season 1 was way above what it had any right to be lol. It still did great with Nightcrawler and the whole "faith" angle, but Gambit should've been death for longer than an episode, that should've been an arc. However in season 1 they did also wrap certain things up pretty quick, like oh you're the Goblin queen, done, it just felt... different... I hope they give them more episodes in future seasons.

Sam

I agree. I do think it started strong but after episode 4 it felt like they didn't have a plan or really knew where they were going. It had some very cool moments but not up to what they did with season 1 overall. Cheers guys!

Steve Harvey Dent

Rumor has it onslaught was the original plan and the had the xmen, x factor, xforce, and the avengers teamed up to stop him.

Nassir Khamis

reactions ain't the same without lupa damn

rickie woodson

yall mystique truthers just gotta take your L lol she didnt replace val til NOW, it was NOT mystique all along. its ok. i didnt see this ending coming at all. rogue celestial? nightcrawler dying? gampocalypse? all my predictions were wrong. mystique did replace val in the comics but it was after they established a friendship and working relationship. wonder if they will fit that in as established lore? would have been great if they had mystique in her raven darkholme form first and then val walks in "raven. what are you doing at my desk" and she shoots val, turns into mystique, and then into val. then we would have known mystique was just deep undercover working for the government all this time and made the betrayal hit harder. oh well. ass season but im hyped for season 3. no more of beau's scripts for them to butcher; mystique is back!; brotherhood and surge are coming; hopefully they will focus on the kids more next season. beau had planned for season 3 to be AOA and for kitty pryde and colossus to join the team this season in the present day during the time lost period on an x-men team lead by bishop. what could have been. please x-men and comic book gods, bring in my girl kitty for season 3!

rickie woodson

that the case. they changed everything beau laid out. apocalypse was just to be established this eason and be the big bad for season 3. this was suppose to be onsluaght's season with episodes 9 and 10 being a big fight with him after the reveal in episode 8. after magneto's death he would have taken over charle's completely and secretly doing evil shit from behind the scenes. x-corp was supposed to be a more militarized version of the x-men. realizing they couldnt defeat him and what caused onslaught to be made (magneto being absorbed into charles' mind) polaris uses the time machine to go back in time and kill magneto the night at that bar seen in season 1 episode 10. charles jumps in front of the blasts and dies instead, creating the AOA for season 3. they scrapped that and kitty pryde coming in as well as making bishop the lead xman with polaris this season. he also made their flirtation a full on relationship instead of just being hinted at. he said in an interview done last year, they made him combine episodes 9 and 10 to rush through this new plot they got. sounds to me like they knew they wanted to axe him so they was like "yeah you're done but while you're here, finish your stuff up quick so we can have our new writer focus on the new direction" also: thats one less episode to pay for as well as dont have to pay creatives for. disney aint slick

Thunter

It’s too bad the director/writer got fired and they rewrote his stuff after episode 4 or 5

LeeVo

Next season will be completely taken over by the What If? Writers we ain’t ever getting that S1 peak might as well drop it now lol

Damion Middleton

First things first, Happy Belated Birthday to Sheera. Second, Happy Birthday to Yours Truly 🙏🏾

torteloni

After magnetos death they had no clear direction. They were cooking so hard up until that point but right after that it was going down hill bad. And this ending just kinda pissed me off all this build up and showing how badass apocalypse is for ... THIS??

Dane

Nightcrawler has always made sacrifices in the comics. His father is a devil, so they may be able to bring him back. My favorite character, frickin tears.

CJ Dennis

I do understand how y'all feel about the finale. I do kinda feel like we could have lingered on people's reaction to Kurt's sacrifice a bit more. I think the main problem most agree with it about this show is that it needs more episodes. 13 or 20 at best much like action cartoons from back in the day. As the first season was also criticize by some for trying to cram in so many different stories in a small number of episodes 🤨 . Ergo, if any streaming show needs more than 9 or 10 episodes it is this one 😅. I'm also convinced that if both seasons had more episodes then the "filler" or the standalone stuff wouldn't bother some people. All in all, the first season may have been better overall but I still enjoyed a lot of what this season had to offer all throughout 🤔.

CJ Dennis

Idk they got more than enough focus last season lol. I like that we focused on some other characters here like Polaris and Bishop 🤔.

Mario Carranza

if feels like as if one of the main writers for the season got fired or something and they started rewriting the later half to go a different direction... oh wait

J Man

I'm curious if they speedran the ending to burn through all the material written by the writer Disney fired (the dude who was doing OnlyFans and potentially other questionable stuff from what I heard). He supposedly wrote up to the end of the Apocalypse saga so anything new would be by the new head writer.

J Man

The original writer that got fired still wrote this season, but they still aired it because it was already written and they already did all the voice acting before he got canned. Season 3 should have fresh new writers as a positive. (If you look at the credits for most of this season "Beau Demayo" is still credited as the main writer of specific episodes as they're using his script)

Bakagio

for 2 Episodes. the whole season was about Nathan and how its his destiny to get kill apocalypse. we got 2-3 Episode about it and other than that it was sprinkled in with going to the savage lands for one episode, having Horseman of Death gambit marry Rogue (and Horseman of Death something all comic book readers knew was coming be funneled into a singular episode) and the episode about wolverine getting his adamantium back. none of which were bad episoded but bro you seriously wanna tell me we couldn't get more Horseman of death, more Nightcrawler (before he DIED), and more cable and his Gang like come on.

DatKid_Kaneki

could see if lupa can watch off screen and comment his initial reaction in the future?

CJ Dennis

We'll have to see if the show can still maintain decent quality even with him gone, as he did still write for most of this season 🤔.

CJ Dennis

I wonder if it's because of how Apocalypse story may have ended in the original show, which I don't think I've ever seen that arc 🤔.

LeeVo

I can already see it considering the show runner for What If? Was responsible for this season with the scraps of the previous show runner hell look at Gambit Apocalypse and Celestial Rouge that’s What If in a nutshell 😭

CJ Dennis

The season is still good despite flaws. So we'll see if it will keep up its quality 🤔.

CJ Dennis

@Marlia I disagree a little, Nightcrawler had some good lines, Love the conversation between Nur and Rouge, wish Exodus got more time with the way he spoke, same with Beast then Rouge and Gambit, Storm was still epic with her stuff, and of course Magneto had plenty of good ones.

Michael Smith

I'm gonna need Jubilee to be the Blackbird's permanent pilot. Do u know how many aircrafts the X-Men destroy each season?

Obinna Uzodike

they dropped the director responsible for season 1 so expect a decline

Jay

Mutants are a result of celestial experiments on humans which laid dormant for many years so yeah he cud have celestial readings with his power scale

Aniki Pft

Although I love 97, this season felt a little janky. I honestly miss the animation and feeling of the first season.

Elyjeh

Different writer for season 3 than season 1 & 2. Hopefully Matthew Chauncey can give us quality as good season 1 with a clear vision throughout the season.

Indifferent Denji

Jean and Scotts powers are so funny against cable cause its sort alike his dads tryna give him some tough fatherly love with a good punch and his moms doing the ultimate "we need to talk now" edit: And W flatman cameo shout out great lakes avengers

Jonathan Rodriguez

According to the writers, they changed what the end of season 2 was meant to be. Onslaught was meant to show up by now, but higher ups wanted more seasons so this is literally what you describe it as, filler. Season 3 is already done though and slated to come out next year so hopefully its less filler

Jonathan Rodriguez

To answer your question, yes, apocolypse was granted his form by a Celestial. We saw this celestial when he got the form, it was those 6 glowing eyes. We also see this celestial in Eternals

Offw0rlder

This whole X-Men vs X-Fumble thing is annoying me 🤣🤣🤣 Idk why tf any of those guys think Cooper’s the one to listen to. They’re using SENTINELS on the X-Men & ya’ll are cool with that?? After Genosha?? I know the X-Men been carrying for like a decade but imma trust the government instead of my people that earned it 🤷🏽‍♂️ okeyyyy

Delinda Arts

listen...this season was good but it tripped up at the finale, but it's gonna pick itself up, dust itself off, get back to work and make The Mouse that check lmao

Offw0rlder

Welp at least I got some satisfaction in the end 😈 💨💨

Kevs rey

It really dipped after ep 4 I really wish they brought onslaught on the last ep and have that be the problem for next season

Kevs rey

First half was written by DeMayo the one that made season one, the other half was the same creator of what if. The second half had no emotional deft

Darkon2050

I can agree somewhat with the exception of Episode 7. “Is mercy found in sparing you, or ending you and sparing us instead? Alas, such questions are what higher powers are for.” Was a fantastic bit of dialogue and is just one example from that episode.

Darkon2050

It’s a step back from season 1 but still was a great time. Some fun episodes in 5 and 7 despite the bitching and moaning that they didn’t advance the plot. I agree with many that the time taken away from the Apocalypse main plot made the following episodes feel rushed towards the climax in a lot of ways, but I’m conflicted because I enjoyed 5 and 7 enough that I feel they justify their existence. Honestly they should’ve given the season 1 or 2 extra episodes for main plot stuff and it would’ve solved that issue. People wanting to pretend only season 2 has filler should go back and watch Mojotendo/Life-Death Part 1. Not knocking on that episode’s quality but it definitely felt like filler as well. We just had enough episodes to still flesh out the main plot. S2 was definitely still a 8/10 season to me, and if it was lower for yall then damn that sucks I hope you end up enjoying the next one more. :)

Diggs

All of the powers apocalypse has besides super strength are from celestial tech

Jeremiah Neely

Holy mid that finale was boring. lol.

Dane

Really? Fuck! He dead lol..... :(

Himindabank

This season wasn’t terrible, however, you can feel when Beau DeMayo left.

ViralCorgi

I don't have a lot of memories of the old series but I remember having a lot of respect and reverence for Xavier. That has diminished SIGNIFICANTLY while watching this show 😭

Mxri

WOW Kurt got me in my feelings

Jaime Ruiz

So, why wasn't there a Celestial Rogue versus Apocalypse fight...

Taijen

Yeah this season definitely needed an extra episode. And this season felt weirdly paced. S1 had some pacing issues but it's worse here. Too fast. As much as I like some of the standalone episodes, those should've been used to refine the season story.

Diego Dominguez

I love your videos and if you guys want to see another good x men animated show watch wolverine and the x men you guys will love it, it’s short and just amazing hopefully the people agree.

Kermit

Nightcrawler's piece up in the last episode more than made up for it. That's why I had a bad feeling they were going to get rid of him next...anyone that's too peak seems to get whacked in this show. It should have been morph.

Kermit

And got replaced by Apocalypse's goofy one-liners.

Kermit

Literally pictured Lupa yelling at Cable calling him a bitch as soon as it happened, lmao.

Kermit

At this point they need to bring Magneto back as a horseman to save the show.

Kermit

Ain't no way everyone got blown away but Charles was still on his chair. Animators probably got tired of all the floor crawling memes.

Kermit

Damn, castlevania all over again...seems like the only people within Netflix able to create peak art are sex pests. Then again the first two seasons had a lot of over the top sexual content and mutants like Magneto flying around in underwear for no reason so it kinda tracks...

Kermit

I mean, they bought Gambit back and Apocalypse isn't dead yet too so who knows. Pretty sure they'll bring Magneto back too to with the amount of people saying the show is worse without him, lol.

Blank

I could hear the “ AHHHH”

Blank

Yoshi was wrong 🫪 and he didn’t want to admit it. Bc he would’ve been wrong if he shot that lady assuming she was mystique 😭😭

LeeVo

Yeah nah I don’t ever see them doing that since they scrapped Onslaught they’ll most likely bring him and Kurt back when Krakoa is introduced

Cam

You can tell Beau Demayo wasn't working on this

Mr. Toxicc

Yeah it was a mixed season, I get Wolverine getting his anamantium back, but I guess I see a reason to introduce the other X teams maybe, but they downplayed death gambit and I hate it, and I hate kurt died? This feels like they wanted to hurry and finish apocalypse so they can get to a new threat like onslaught.

Krohv

Yeah typical Christian savior complex undermining someone else's decision so you can feel so fucking holy. Go fuck yourself night crawler

Indifferent Denji

This gotta be the dumbest thing ive read all day i hope its just bait.

Indifferent Denji

I may get hate for this but I overall enjoyed Netflix DMC s2 as s season more than this while there are aspects that suck in there at the VERY LEAST they set up a story that they have followed through with that felt "satisfying" somewhat. At least in terms of a finale i had more fun with Dmc

Logan Prime

yeah we got to remember too this season got postponed cause they had to do a bunch of rewrites after you know who was fired from the series. really is a bummer. hopefully we get a better season next year.

mondawmin mall

Yea so rehire the dude who wrote and directed the first season cause I don’t know what the second half of this season was

Adrian Locke

“you shooting got us into this” Scott, please shut the fuck up. You were all literally running here to try and TNJ Gambit into controlling Apocalypse, you know how stupid that sounds
