One big problem with Omniverse is how it felt like it could get away with lackluster writing by covering it up with stupid pop-culture references. For instance, you know how Ben regains Feedback? Yeah, that's literally just a Persona reference. There's no explanation beyond that. It's never explained how he got the DNA sample back. It's never explained what the heck just happened at all. The whole situation gives me King Crimson flashbacks.



Ultimately, though, my personal biggest problem with Omniverse is its potential. It could've been awesome! There were a lot of great plots and concepts that could have worked just fine, but were dragged down by pandering and often just plain lazy writing.

In addition, was anyone really satisfied with the ending? Ben's final fight of the series...is with some robo-moron that we didn't even learn was a thing until a season or two ago. Vilgax? Who's that? God knows we wouldn't want the final showdown of the series to be with the main villain of the series. No no no, we need to throw in some generic doomsday villain just to 'spice it up'.

Honestly, I could rant for ages about Omniverse, but that's not something I have nearly enough time for right now.

Oh, and Transformers Prime was awesome. Unlike Ben 10 Omniverse, the creators of that show actually cared about what they were writing.
