Sprocket as Gasket?
 
Do you like how they made Gasket a separate character? Or was it better when Sprock's counterpart grew into Gaskets's in Ohranger ?

It made more sense to use him as his own character. Especially since Mondo and Machina remained on the rest of the season, unlike in Ohranger.

I thought it made a lot of sense to use Sprocket and Gasket as 2 separate characters considering King Mondo came back into the picture so it would've made things more difficult to cut around when it came to the Skybase if Sprocket and Gasket were the same character since generally Mondo and Sprocket were always shown together in the Skybase.

I just wish Lord Zedd and Rita took over directly

That's tempting but I also would like it if they had Louie Kaboom be some exiled Machine Empire general who simply saw Mondo's death as a way to take over instead of some weapon from Rita, and Zedd's that went awry.

I would have liked that backstory better. I think Sprocket growing into Gasket would have been cool.

Gasket was better as his own character. He should have become the main villian instead of Mondo coming back.

not a bad idea but they probably didn't think he was fit enough design-wise to be a true part of their empire since they're machines and he's just a rocket which is probably why the writers came up with that idea of him coming from Rita and Zedd

I thought it sould have made more sense if he eas one of the machines. He didn't fit Rita and Zedd's motif. And he betrayed them in like 5 seconds so what was the point.

I think Sprocket should have turned good in the end since he was just a kid.He just wanted to have friends and was just misguided.

Rita never had a motif it was Finster who had the motif. Zedd's motif was actually inanimate creatures so Kaboom fits since a rocket is inanimate in fact most of Rita's own monsters were through spells.

Giant = a spell
Madame Woe = this was kinda strange since she spoke to Finster as if he needed to make her but she later just contacts her like a normal convo.
Knasty Knight = a spell but apparently it was done in conjunction with his Sword of which had to be made beforehand
Wheel of Misfortune = transformed a regular spinning wheel with her magic
Lokar = spell to summon him
Mutitus = spell to summon him
Brick Bully = created him
Impursonator = created her

where's the theme?
