Making GENDER-BENT Versions of Ben 10 Characters 

I swear Kuro can't go one week without changing his hairstyle lol.

Someone should document the evolution of Kuro's hair, it's looking so cool in this one

Maybe an owl for young Glenn? Could be a cool half mask that still has that "lucky girl" silhouette and isn't a generic "boy" animal

Glenn and Kaiden definitely have a relationship where someone yells "dork" from across the street and Kaiden just turns her fist into a bat before charging at the perpetrators.

Since Glenn plays baseball maybe instead of "Lucky Boy" he can be called "Odd Ball" to as a play on probability.

The many perks of being talented artists - you can do fun stuff like this

I don't know why, but I really like the idea of Jen having each of her nails painted to resemble one of her 10 current aliens. I feel like that would be something very in-line with Ben/Jen's concept of viewing their aliens as part of themselves

I'm all for Evelyn Levin, but I still like names like Kaden. Jen and Glenn, perfect.

Jen is a propular name for genderswaped Ben. Anyway, I really like genderswap art. Glad to see you do some.

"What's that?" "My magic wand." Just somehow an incredibly badass yet silly line. Good job.

For Glenn's alter ego you could've gone with a monkey. Cause there's the whole monkey's paw thing, and monkeys are both intelligent and athletic fitting with Glenn's sports, chess and other habits.

It's so rare to see any genderbent takes on Kevin's amalgam forms, so you guys did a great job on the execution. It would be neat to see a sequel video that covers the main three as adults, and maybe Kaden/Evelyn's other amalgam forms. Along with Glenn's Anodite form?

Really like how you guys actually came up with a genderbent characters. Most people just draw a girl wearing the guy's clothes or vice versa, but you actually went through the trouble of converting their clothes into what their genderbent self would wear.

You have no idea how much I was ranting "Name him Glenn, Name him Glenn, Name him Glenn" in my head hahahahaaha! But no, love the looks and the debates on what works and doesn't work!

Jen Tennyson Glenn Tennyson Kaden Evelyn Levin Maxine Tennyson And ummm... Rook lol

"My magic wand" One of the most subtle badass lines

Damn, no Grandma Maxine? This is a sad day for Ben 10 fans

Also for Teen Glenn I think the exchange about the bat is just amazing.

I like how y’all are giving the gender-bents some backstory and voice acting!

For Glenn - A fox is a creature that is mischievous and mysterious and has luck connotations like a cat in mythology etc? And works with the ginger-red head aesthetic. But also Glenn kinda looks like the child of Ron and Kim possible to me. Also I can see Jen wearing a skirt over jeans just like Ashley Tisdale tbh.

I can imagine future Glenn using something like dnd's "Divine Smite" where he just charges a lot of mana into the bat and when bonking someone even the slightest it just gets the exploding mana in the face, making even blocked Hits dangerous. Beside his other magic of course.

As soon as I got the notification for this episode of the Drawing Matrix, some possible ideas that sounded pretty neat came to mind as this Genderbend series looks like it's going to be the next mini series like the Ultimates, but here's some Ben 10 ideas that just popped into my head: 1. Classic Grandpa Max alien designs from the Gwen 10 episode, but giving each alien that Grandpa Max feel like his Upgrade being a bit more bulky and to what possible design roots each alien could look like with Max's aesthetic. 2. Redesigning Ash and Kuro's least favourite Aliens from the Tier list to be more to their personal taste 3. Combining the (Omniverse) Predators from the Nemitrix with their respective prey from the Omnitrix. (Similar to what Ultimate Rath did with Ditto's predator in terms of combining the designs, but making it look like coherent design) 4. Designing Kevin's Aliens from the Reboot in the Classic style to see how different they could like to fit in with the style of Classic as it would be interesting to see the final looks of them. 5. Combining two Aliens that would have a symbiotic relationship with their powers like the discussion of Swampfire being a combination of Heatblast and Wildvine and making itself its own species like the previously said Swampfire. But that would be treading on Ash's Fusion Lab, but it would an pretty interesting idea for an episode. 6. Trying your hands at having Doctor Animo and the mutant ray type fusions for the aliens not represented in the episode and or thinking up new ideas for fusions for the episode with your own personal twists/interpretations as to not feeling like your redesigning on the fusion website designs. I hope these ideas seem interesting to everyone to some extent as this series has so much potential in terms of ideas and I can't wait to see what comes next out of it like branching out of the Ben 10 ideas into other franchise that you guys like, but anyway can't wait to see what's next for this growing series even if it isn't that frequent as the breakdowns or other content like freeze frame, but it's always a good watch through as always thanks you guys, hope you'll doing well and thanks for great content.

kevin isn't goth at all, he's more punk/grunge

I feel like the gremlin pose was absolutely appropriate for Kaiden. 11 year old girls are freaking feral. I would know, I was one. Edit: Also, bare minimum of makeup is no makeup. Considering canon!Ben's reputation as a bit of a slob who doesn't care too much about personal appearances, if his room and clothing habits are concerned, then I can't imagine an alternate version of himself would be any better just for being female. Just saying, I can't imagine a girl!Ben would be super into it.

For Glenn’s animal you should’ve done a Jackal since they are often characterised as multi-dimensional and being mystical.

Evelyn would be a good name for Kevin's/Kaiden's mom. Just noticed she never got one.

Ash always wearing his hat versus kuro’s ever changing hair. The duality of man.

I love how they actually did new versions of the characters instead of being the original characters with the other gender stereptypical stuff, felt fresh, and those designs were awesome!!

I love all of these. Also I think Glenn’s version of Lucky girl could have been called Lucky Strike since he seems to be a big baseball player.

Wait a moment.... AF/UA Gwen is already a gender bender version of AF/UA Ben.

I think that Glenn probably wouldn’t go with the name Lucky Boy personally I think the name Fortune Lad sounds better

Honestly, would've figure Glenn would've done wrestling instead of martial arts, but baseball still works

15:59. Jen 10: *It's HERO TIME!!* 3:47. Kaden 11: *If they thought I was a freak before... Just WAIT!!*

Another banger from the Tank! All of these “Drawing Matrix” videos have been top tier; it’s so fun seeing your creative processes in action. Also I’d LOVE if you guys revisited this genderbent AU sometime and do more characters for this world. Maybe not even just the alien forms, since others have done that… But maybe you guys can make genderbent versions of the Ben 10 villains? That’s something you don’t see everyday!

Ngl I freaking adore the loose gremlin energy in Kaiden's classic pose, like she does look intimidating but she also just, looks like a gremlin which works too well. XD

Id love to see two more of these. One for allies, with Grandma Maxine, Julius, and maybe Rook? And then a villains one. Vilgax(idk how to differentiate it from Myaxx), Michelle Morningstar, I have no idea what a female Aggregor would be but...that. maybe servantis.

See... the thing is, I was never like crazy about Gwen like most dudes I knew. But with teen Kaiden, I am down

I like the idea of Glenn's nickname being Lucky Strike

10:27 speaking as a former boy scout, a bear or a bobcat would be perfect

While watching this video I had a thought for what Glenn could have on his t-shirt instead of a cat, and it was a rabbit. While not exactly something that’d really appeal to a 10 year old boy it could be a cartoon character like Bugs Bunny or something. It could be lucky rabbit, instead of lucky girl, and rabbits are also heavily associated with magicians.

Honestly Glenn is my favorite and I just love the concept that as a kid he just hit bad guys with a bat but I also love the idea that he uses wind spells with it. Like he stole the spell book from this worlds charmcaster and now just swings the bat to make a tornado or twister happen

This would make a great introduction to a Gwen 10 drawing series... Also, since Kevin absorbed Ghostfreak, does that mean T'Scare is also conscious inside Kevin and influencing him? Kaiden looks like she has a LOT more Ghostfreak on her.

So gender-bent Gwen is basically the Scout from TF2.

Man I really love how both versions of Kaiden turned out. The detail of combining the Diamondhead and Heatblast arm was genius and looked really cool!

Would love to see a video where both Kuro and Ash take 4-5 characters that don’t have or were not given Future/Ben 10000 designs and have them give their takes on those characters designs and what they may look like.

Gwen: Hyyyaaahhhhh!!! Glenn: B O N K

I kind of imagined Jen as like the sporty girl archetype

Ben and Kevin actually look good. Why does Classic Gwen remind me of another character?

kuro: *YAWN* that was a yawn. ash: was it? is what cracked me up the most

Gwen’s gender-bent form should have a turtle as his animal, because Terraspin is a species that resists magic

This was an awesome video! Loved seeing your guys’s creativity and humor come out so naturally! I’d love to see a part 2 with Jen’s Genderbent Aliens And maybe a part 3 with Genderbent side characters! Like Grandma Maxine, Grandpa Vergil/Verdun, the Maxine Force, Jen’s boyfriend Julian (Julie Yamamoto), etc,

While I do think "Lucky Boy" could work as a superhero name for Glenn in his youth, ("I'm just a Lucky Boy.") I 100% get why some folks, including myself, don't feel comfortable calling him that. Hence why I'm taking the Kid Cosmic approach and calling Glenn's magical boy persona "Lucky Kid".

Technically since there are parallel universes in Ben 10, this could technically be canon.

4:55 you know, after hearing that idea, why didn’t they put 👋👋That kinda cameo in Alien Force’s Vendetta instead of popping that up in Omniverse and having Servants strait up lie about it? Because that would have made much more sense for Kevin’s character arc

I laughed so hard at "It's my magic wand" I almost gave myself a migrain. XD

Instead of the sorcerer vibes of Gwen, Glenn gives off maybe more paladin vibes as he wields a weapon and uses magic

Yooo the whole “thick lips” thing between Ben and Gwen got me so messed up rn, I didn’t realize one small thing could change so much lol

Grandma Maxine? Professor Anima? Forever Queen? I hope to see more of this series, and I'd be really interested to see more female aliens for Jen Ten/Gwen Ten, whichever. Rule 63 is always interesting to see art of, if it isn't taken too far that is

3:50 YOOOO, that voice is amazing! Reminds me of Toph a lil'.

Kuro, your hair's so pretty in this video! and i LOVE the designs, ya'll.

"I'm a rowboat?" I love these guys!

That Kuro hair is sublime

kid jen caught my eye.... and the voice as well. excited for teen

Dudes! This was a lot of fun! Would love if you did one of these specifically for the villains. Perhaps Animo, Charmcaster, Attea, Darkstar, Aggregor, Eon, Khyber, and Proctor Servantis.

Glenn could have had the mushroom icon from the prototype footage. Or maybe King Dedede's rabbit icon 'cause that would be funny.

Pretty cool genderbent version of the Alien Force Trio! Now how about more of the cast.

Surprised you didn't go with a crow/raven for Glenn's shirt design.

Glenn could have a rabbit, since a rabbit's foot is good luck and with the magic it plays into the pulling a rabbit out of a hat trick, it also isn't a generic "boy" animal

Unironically I wouldn't mind seeing more of the Classic Kaiden/Eveylen version of Kevin because I could see a lot more story with that version, like having it be she is from a reality to which she won against Ben but regretted it and uses one of those aliens more powerful than Alien X to try and find a universe where the wrongs she had done didn't happen so she can seek redemption since without Ben, Earth was likely destroyed by Vilgax due to a discouraged Max not being able to bring a force against him since its Ben is dead and Gwen would be either also dead, broken spiritually too, or gone insane. Also I love the Jen design

This was very cool, I like the Glenn version. Maybe you can do a story where the trio meets these alternates. 😁

I've seen some genderbent versions of them and they're good but you guys did great

You know it's a good video when it took me till the end to spot Bold and Brash in O.R.Ash's background

Welll this video looks like fun

I was quite surprised at the type of episode this was, but I think it's real good. Can't wait to see more Ultimates coming soon.

Omg I really like the idea of the baseball bat wand thing, that's hilarious

- I think Kevin is grunge, but maybe that was the vibe to me. - Missed the opportunity to call him "Lucky Lad" - Lucky Lad's bat could work like Leviathan from GoW4, he throws it and it comes back along with batting andonite projectiles. - Everything else was pretty on point in my opinion, minus some of the names, I feel like certain rules would have to follow the idea of don't break the rule, bend it.

Loving the new intro animation, and the fact that Ash still rocks a flat cap. We need more people in flat caps.

Personally I like the name Devon for female Kevin. I've read books with female Devons, and I think it works as a girl name that still rhymes with Eleven

I find it funny how they mentioned Freddy after naming the Gwen swap Greg

Genderbent Kevin is my favorite drawing of all the pieces.

Umm.. interesting....after see a lot of fan arts we get an Ink Tank version.nice!

As someone named Glenn, I was shouting my name at the screen during the whole Gwen section until Ash googled and found my name

You guys are so smart and artistic, this video is very interesting as hell, I love see different version especially genderbent!!

14:50 Eye Guy: My eyes!!! Spitter and stinkfly: *pukes*

I really hope you guys do a follow up to this video where maybe you do the future versions of the characters and even more side characters like kai

fun fact: in turkish dub max keeps his voice even in the reboot

A mystical type animal that’s not a cat could be a Fox mask. It would be a neat touch, and could be a cool version of the lucky boy outfit

10:48 "SHUT THE FU-" I stan this lad, he perfectly describes my attitude towards that franchise

The designs are awesome, But they make me wonder what if Ben, Gwen, Kevin, Max and such weren’t humans maybe Tetramands or Lepidopterrans

Kind of like a sumo slammers reference with the teenage Jen hairstyle

Both of your artistic abilities are amazing

Would love to see a round two with max,paradox,and albeado

I really love the hard work dedicated to this video. I love how you both showcases reference and figuring out to use them for ideas. And as well as provide voices for the gender bend characters!!

This type of content is the thing I never know I want

So THIS is why Kurt started calling Aggregor Greg

I love how like , they made them into characters , not just a drawing

6:21 that’s really good !

Well I really enjoyed the genderbent designs, especially the commentary cause I laughed so many times throughout this!

Kuro, the reason the result for “lockett” came up with a football player, is because that kind of necklace is spelt with one “t”. “Locket”.

ok no joke that mutant design for "Kaiden" is so badass
