Overview

The Legacy: Why We Still Talk About It

Unlike Ben 10 (2005) or Alien Force , which had sporadic releases in Japan, Omniverse arrived at a unique time. By 2012, Cartoon Network Japan was aggressively pushing Western shows with "anime flair." Omniverse , with its distinct art style courtesy of Derrick J. Wyatt (known for Transformers: Animated ), was a perfect candidate. The sharp angles, exaggerated expressions, and fast-paced action resembled Gurren Lagann or Pantry & Stocking more than its predecessors.
