Maybe you should watch the original series to understand why everyone hates this abomination.

Reboot was so amazing when I think about it, I've never seen a show transition from silly episodic episodes with no stakes to "killing" off its previously untouchable main hero and having the plucky young boy get his eye permanently sliced out before trapping him in a hellish abyss so seamlessly. The episode where Hexadecimal gets her mask taken off still makes me uncomfortable to this day.

The problem isn't whether Guardian Code is a good show in its own right.

It's the mercenary crassness of looking at a pre-existing show and going "hmm, we don't care about these characters or storylines or worldbuilding, or any of the things fans loved about it...so let's throw out all of that, and just capitalize on the branding/iconography/name-recognition to promote our own unrelated OCs."

That would be a slap in the face to any fandom. Doesn't help that Reboot was an amazing show, and was canceled with some serious plots still hanging, so there are still lots of us who would leap at the prospect of an actual sequel.
