I'd agree, the animation is a lot better here than in the other series. I also like the stories better, and Wolverine isn't as front and center. Previously most of the animated series, and the films made Wolverine the main character - and that's a mistake. The character suffers from over-exposure, and really less is more. When they pull back, we get more of an ensemble - which is what the X-men has always been about an ensemble action-adventure soap opera with progressive themes about human rights and diversity.

Good to know this week's episode is better. Last week's was good with Storm, but the Jubliee bit was a tad boring. The Storm Life/Death story with Forge - is a classic. I do like how they did the Maddie/Scott/Jean and Nathan bit - it fixed some of Claremount's mistakes. Maddie and Jean have more agency here - and it's not all about Scott. Also Scott - isn't the one who gave Nathan to Bishop but Maddie, which is an interesting difference. I'm on the fence about that one. I kind of liked that it was Scott in the comics who had to give up his son, and Maddie resented him for it.
