This is not a worthy successor to the original animated series. As an entry into superhero cartoons, the art is sub par compared to it's progenitor. It lacks the visual pop of the classic. The pacing is slow. Everything seems to move in stop animation format.
The costumes are good all things considered. Except Gambit. Gambit is presented as...corny. And a bad dresser. Not a fan of Storm having the mohawk in this one. A small detail but, important all the same.
The dialogue is presented as if written by AI. The phrase " My X-Men" appears much too often. Which means more than once.
The voice acting. It goes without saying some voice actors make the roles theirs. That is not a possibility here. We remember the X Men voices as well as our own. This voice crew does not have the childlike flair to make this enjoyable. The voices are presented as if they're always in a tunnel, that's filled with sulfur hexaflouride. And Rouge... if the voice was stereotypical in the 90s , this is downright insulting.
Overall, the allure was 90s nostalgia. That faded quickly. The show is still set in that 90s continuity. Unfortunately the people responsible for this series don't understand what made that cartoon a banger. This cartoon is a flop.
