Episode #74 - Hidden Agenda Music Composed By: Shuki Levy Animation Services By: AKOM Review: This episode was certainly a surprise, especially this late along in the game. I’m not sure why they chose to introduce a new character and start what appears to be the beginning of a subplot of Government agents manipulating mutants to hunt their own kind, but alas, an episode should be judged on how entertaining it is, not what could’ve been done in it’s place.The first thing immediately noticeable is the Southern accents and how absolutely terrible they are throughout the episode. Worse still, Chris Potter no longer portrays Gambit, and most of the characters charm was lost because of it. The new guy seemed to simply try and impersonate Potter, with dire results. The new Gambit sounded incredibly cheesy, which is a shame, as his revamp made him look cool and mysterious, instead of a man in pink. Whilst it’s true a lot of the revamped designs are simply the same designs drawn slightly differently and coloured better, there’s no denying that they’re a whole lot better looking for it. Other than this, this is basically a typical X-Men episode. It’s by no means bad, but there’s nothing especially memorable about it. I think they could’ve done something a lot better in its place, but, eh, this’ll have to do. Screenshots: |
