History YMMV / GalacticShiftExtend

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Occurs InUniverse, with Khyber finding it unlikely that Ben simply became complacent after all his accomplishments. He theorises that Ben's current cocky and immature attitude is actually a way to distance himself from how cold he was before and avoid coming close to crossing a line. Ben's silence suggests he's right.

** [[spoiler:Junko Enoshima in Chap 45 Despair's Attempt Part 4. Junko is out to break Ben, she's got the upper hand and has brainwashed Makoto into a agent of Despair and pitted her against her boyfriend.]] What happens? [[spoiler:Ben uses [[StoryBreakerPower ReBoot]], destroys all of Junko's electronic controls and files, quickly overpowers her, and creates a video to return Makoto to normal in the space of a few minutes.]] Not the most satisfying conclusion.
** And then [[spoiler:Manaka Towa shows up in a giant Monokuma with the army of the evil bears now under her command...and get destroyed by Series/{{GARO}} out of nowhere. At least ReBoot had been established in story.]]

** In Chapter 9 of GSESS, [[spoiler: Yuki Terumi performs a massive slaughter by not only destroying a neighborhood with a train and the bridge it was on above said neighborhood via a bomb, but also used the Despair caused by it to snap Junko Enoshima back to her 'normal' self and let her slaughter all but one Plumber that only survive because Garo appeared]].
** [[spoiler: Chapter 82 ends with Phil being contacted by the Imperators]]
** [[spoiler: Chapter 83, after being a mostly lighthearted chapter, suddenly ends with the revelation that the fic's gonna do an adaptation of Alien X-Tinction, the SeriesFinale of the Ben 10 Reboot!]]

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: [[spoiler:Makoto Nanaya getting turned into a agent of Despair was a cool idea. It's a shame she was quickly reverted back to normal without doing much of anything.]][[spoiler:[[DownplayedTrope Though Makoto is still shown to be deeply traumatized by what happened, even if she tries to cover it up]].

*** Then again, having a ClimaxBoss fight [[Spoiler:is ''exactly'' what Junko would have wanted, and would have resulted in TheUnfought where she undergoes a punishment game of her own design while she mocks "everyone' who has fought her]].

* AuthorsSavingThrow: The writer notes their intention to fix some of the more controversial elements of ''WesternAnimation/Ben10Omniverse'' as noted on this very site.
** Ben's break up with Julie is addressed early on, with Ben acknowledging his stupidity and displaying regret over it. As a result ''Rules of Engagement'' shifts to Ben trying to repair his friendship with Julie, instead of trying to win her back.
** The new aliens introduced in ''Outbreak'' have their powers described from the start.
** Kevin and Gwen stick with their initial designs, instead of the radical redesigns the series later gave them.
** Ben suddenly regaining Feedback is actually given a couple of potential explanations.
** Ben's characterization is better balanced between goofy and serious, with some of his ego hinted to be ObfuscatingStupidity.
** In ''Omniverse'', Vilgax was considered underused, overshadowed by other lesser villains, and was often treated like a joke when he didn't appear. Here Vilgax is the primary focus in ''Vilgax Must Croak'', with the Incurseans and bounty hunters playing second fiddle. He actually gets a fight with Ben, going back to OS levels of power and successfully taking on Humoungusaur, Big Chill, Diamondhead, and Cannonbolt with Feedback only managing to temporarily paralyze him before Ben timed out. He's treated as TheDreaded and it's made clear that when Vilgax is involved, Ben drops the joking and gets serious. [[spoiler: He's now formed a LegionOfDoom, indicating he'll be an arc villain down the line with the Rooters out of the picture]].
** The take on ''Frogs of Wars'' explains why the Incurseans are after Earth (thanks to advances in intergalactic travel, Earth's become a valuable staging point for any conqueror looking to attack multiple galaxies at once) and portrays the people surprised by the aliens in Bellwood as oblivious idiots.
** Azmuth removes the Randomizer from the Omnitrix, a feature that many fans saw as worse than useless.
** The Rooters arc was controversial for the massive amount of {{Retcon}}s to ''Alien Force'' it involved. [[spoiler: Here, the group is wiped out by Vilgax before they can do anything.]]
** The removal of the Ben x Kai pairing that was basically forced in canon with no true romantic buildup and only consisted of them arguing.

* AntiClimaxBoss: [[spoiler: Junko Enoshima in Chap 45 Despair's Attempt Part 4. Junko is out to break Ben, she's got the upper hand and has brainwashed Makoto into a agent of Despair and pitted her against her boyfriend.]] What happens? [[spoiler: Ben uses [[StoryBreakerPower ReBoot]], destroys all of Junko's electronic controls and files, quickly overpowers her, and creates a video to return Makoto to normal in the space of a few minutes.]] Not the most satisfying conclusion.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: [[spoiler: Makoto Nanaya getting turned into a agent of Despair was a cool idea. It's a shame she was quickly reverted back to normal without doing much of anything.]]
* WordOfGod: Several.
** The three authors have stated they have have all the worlds selected for the Omniverse Arc, with hints that it's been building up in them since the Vilgax chapter.
** Because Toepick's species was not given a name, they dubbed the species 'Phobiasapien' since their power is fear itself.
** Anytime a series is referenced or mentioned as a series in-universe will not be part of the repaired universe because '[they] have to draw the line somewhere.'

** Vilgax is the primary focus in his return, with the Incurseans playing second fiddle. He's boosted back to OS levels as he takes on Humoungusaur, Big Chill, Diamondhead, Cannonbolt, and Feedback... and Ben is barely able to match him with Feedback only disabling him temporarily. He's portrayed as TheDreaded and once the Omnitrix times out, all anyone can do is run.
