I watched the show. I really liked it. The animation for the action scenes is great. They can do so much more and it's awesome. Characters are all on point and the stakes are high. Pretty good stuff all around.
But......
I was correct and they are doing the whole Rogueneto angle. And I hate it. I mean, the original show never really got super deep into Gambit and Rogue's relationship, so to skip over that and go straight into the Magneto thing sucks. Unless they are going to write it well and it will be something that makes Gambit and Rogue have a deeper relationship. I can only hope. Just don't make Gambit a chump. I like that they had Gambit picking up that crap right away. At least. I don't want to hate Rogue. The love triangle thing always makes the person in the middle unlikable. I also don't want Gambit's story and arcs to only be attached to Rogue.
But anyway, like I said, stakes and drama are high. It feels right in place with the original show but with some enhancements. Looking forward to the rest of the season.
