at this point I'm considering focusing all my energy on this blog because there needs to be more fan content about this show, damn it

ferrus = made of iron
steel is an iron alloy
I hate this show (affectionate)
amputee Forge Ferrus trying his goddamn best to be ´prepared at all times' (read: wear the arm constantly) then gives up after a few months and just walks in one day with the left arm hole sewn shut on his shirt. he tells Berto he needed to lose a few pounds and gives back the arm. Forge is 80% trauma 20% dad jokes fight me on this
Berto: Chief, what about battle?
Forge: you made that arm fully functional and nearly identical to my old one, right?
Berto: ...yeah?
Forge: can you make one that is both a gun and a knife and an energy shield?
Berto, wiping a tear from his eye: I thought you'd never ask
you can't convince me Forge is his real name. it's gotta be a military nickname- no way their parents went "ok this one's FORGE and then the next one's Molly :)" he had to have met Kat and Jefferson in the military, gotten the nickname, then left and made N Tek
WAIT FURTHER CONSPIRACY
why does Max call him Uncle Ferrus? if it's his and Molly's last names then that's really strange. is Ferrus his second first name? did he go by his last name for a while and it stuck? Molly calls him Forge, so what gives?
the foreshadowing in s1e7 Hard Water when they come up against water elementor for the first time seems very heavy handed at the start: "mentor figure puts you up against a test challenge that mirrors the antagonist's powers" sure! simple. easy to wave it off as a kid's show
but the followup thought "how did Ferrus know water elementor was coming?" freaked me out the first time I watched the show as a kid. love it when something is only partially explained and leaves the viewer with more questions; great way to close out an episode while continuing a season
in ep 1 Max is informed the steel suit is now permanently on his body, but it appears that he still showers, goes about daily life, and his clothes that replace the suit show more of his skin than the suit (see the beach episode where he's in swim trunks
Future Max could get Steel to reduce the suit into an accessory that is roughly Steel-shaped so he can still charge. a set of matching arm bracers would be fucking sick can you imagine?
just an older Max walking around with these
is there a canon age order to the Ferrus siblings? because Molly being well-adjusted screams older sister but Forge's whole protective thing is also very older brother coded
vibe-based I think Molly being the older sister makes more sense because she seems to have the same amount of experience as Forge in fighting despite the fact that she's been out of the game for the past 16 years
it doesn't seem like there is any easily available information about this. lend a hand?
ven ghan accidentally making max discover gnc like "max what are these he or she categories you humans split yourselves into?" max doesn't want to explain so he asks steel who looks it up and reads from wikipedia
which answers the questions for the two aliens but raises more for max "steel why did you say social construct? steel it can CHANGE over TIME i thought that was just a math thing. steel steeeeel stop holding your arms like that i know you can hear me and besides you don't even have ears"
going off of the WHO's definition (first one to pop up on a google): Gender refers to the characteristics of women, men, girls and boys that are socially constructed. This includes norms, behaviours and roles associated with being a woman, man, girl or boy, as well as relationships with each other. As a social construct, gender varies from society to society and can change over time.

A post after a millennia lmao, well, to those patient enough to wait, some Max Steel fanart! I did a screenshot redraw from come together part 2 :3
Also aughhh Steel is my blorbo, I will not be answering any more questions.
great armor rendering, op
in one year at Copper Canyon, 16 year old Max McGrath antagonized five murderous sentient alien robots, five toxically modified people, two CEOs, a fuckboy thief for hire, a cursed sword, and a plastic goldfish

series where the drama peaked in the past and in the present it is a mystery to be unraveled fucking SLAP dude. (spoilers ahead for Max Steel 2013) yes Forge, James, and Miles all made N Tek together, Miles betrayed them for Makino, then Forge, Kat, Jefferson, and Molly all saw Jim die in the final battle, but nevermind that because this teenager has to pass his Driving Test
don't you just love it when you find an obscure mediocre media that has such an intriguing concept and storyline that has better potential than whatever Marvel's been putting out for the last two years but then go to see that there's no fandom or fan content for it so you're basically vibrating and going feral by yourself in the corner as it rots your brain??
yeah so anyway, have some Max Steel doodles
// i love how after maybe 4 eps, Max is ride or die for Ven-Ghan. like, he'd risk his life to save him and everything, its so good.
trained alien killer to bestie pipeline is strong in the max steel verse
