This takes me back quite a while. I used to watch X-Men every single day during lunch when I was a kid, and those are definitely cherished memories. I had no idea this adaptation even existed. Let’s see what it’s all about. So many iconic heroes, and with a rather mature visual style too. I’m liking it so far. A huge problem right from the start. Hard feelings to overcome and a rather new situation for everyone involved. A great introductory episode.
El inicio del episodio es simplemente magnifico. Le da un toque especial al inicio del anime al incluir un enemigo que parece ser bastante fuerte, además del momento trágico que se vive.Y que de igual forma, el compás de como continua todo es increíble, mostrando lo que son los X-Men y que Charles nunca renunciará a su equipo ni ayudar a otros.
I'm being generous, the opening throws us into a raging inferno. Where the fate of the world hangs in the balance. The whirlwind of emotions for each character comes to a head when they all must come to grips with the decision Jean made. It was superb, til useless exposition ruined it. Literally after that masterful introduction to this series we get narration. They brilliantly showed us only to tell us later; spoon feeding us like we're children. Great episode though, each character gets an equal amount of screen time, the plot does not get bogged down, it sets it up and is quickly tackled, and the animation looks so clean so nice. Storm is just built different, and this Logan better exemplifies himself really capturing his essence unlike his moody Wolverine series counterpart.
