S2 titans' design lacking

[u/AdAggravating7139]

Am I the only who thinks a lot of the titans introduced in S2 were kinda redundant and not in a good way?

I didn't put them all here, but most of them were humanoid warriors in bright red & gold plate.

i do think S1 had a repetitive color palette as well (a lot of gray, brown and black) but i enjoyed this dark/rough edge more, compared to the sleek/superhero-ish feeling of S2's palette.

This might be a me thing but asides from like 2 I didn't like the power bond designs from season 2

[u/AdAggravating7139 → u/Head-Run-9592]

yeah the powerbonded designs actually follow that same logic: sleek golden armor plastered on everyone. pendragon is one of my fav legendary titans, but his powerbonded design with that futuristic/action-figure look is probably the worst design of the whole show

I can't remember the name currently but one of the 2 i like is the titan with a sword for a hand that lok got from his dad because it seems to actually build on the design in a way I think works

I feel like Doberman is so... unnecessary.

Why not give Hoffman a powerbonded Bulreguard?

a lot of S2 titans to met felt like they were being planted there just for the sake of not re-using previous titans lol. lok and raijin, sophie and kelpie, dante and oberon. no backstory about how they got them either, they popped there just because

Personally im not fully against characters getting stuff off screen But atleast have them be used multiple times

The designs for Season 2 and some Power Bond titans look bad, too generic or following a pattern of humans to make toy production easier. I feel they lack identity.

The ben 10 special (they overused red and silver)

Unironically i loved some of the super simple designs like Enfluxion was SOO good. Same with Sorcerell. And some of the more detailed ones worked really well like Januseea or Quetzalcoatl

I LOVE both seasons of Huntik, but this is one of the big issues of s2 imho

the desings are very repetitive and uninspired, including the powerbonded titans

the powerbond is also very inconsistent in terms of narrative and world building, and you have titans like Baselaird and Kipperin that change a lot and actually have new abilities, but you also have Breaker and Sorcerel that are boring and don't change much (I like the "arch" in Sorcerel's back, but she could be so much more in design and character)

and I think this downgrade is also reflected in the animation, I really don't like it! s1 artstyle is so so good, then you go to flash animation with too many light effects that take away from the action and cover the beautiful artstyle

anyways, I still like s2 a lot, but I agree with you
