Season 2 ending imo was the perfect bridge to a finale like season 3 if the writers did not milk two more seasons

Becca dying stormfront dying all in the same episode while Homelander looses his cool and crumbles down emotionally gave me a hint that he will always loose his control when it comes to emotions just like he did when he lost his powers in season five Billy saying "NO" to shield Ryan was enough even if he hated a part of Ryan being a supe

Maeve taking a stand against HL was also appreciable.

Both of them are so awkward due to their upbringing, it’s like two aliens trying to mimic human interaction.

Ryan is a little uncomfortable but trying to get used to it. Homelander obviously watched too many family movies instead of doing actual research on parenting, and is trying to act like the stereotypical dad.

It’s sad, but also funny and weirdly cute lmao

Intresting for a show which like mocked this type of bs tropes... the ending still feels so fucking unserious and too happy. Like Amazon went like... okay so let Vought win, everyone just moves on and time to pump spin offs around it until we are 90.

The Comics while not perfect (Vought also survived) still felt had more devestation and brutality to the ending. It felt more bleak/bittersweet ish. Also, Hughie like in the end blackmailed vought to not continue otherwise he would release the virus.

Watching the finale just felt so wrong... the vibes were so off.

I mean in episode 3 he confronted him about Homelander raping his mother, and had no fear in trying to fight him over it, even though he obviously knew Homelander was stronger, and even though he got his ass beat, he still throw hands with him.

And in the finale, he straight up was just roasting Homelander and telling him how much of a piece how shit he was, and this was even AFTER Homelander beat his ass. And then he shows up to the White House to help Butcher take him down. I’m just kinda surprised Ryan didn’t fear Homelander one bit.

Story wise , there is no meaning in watching this show at all

No grand ending about the fall of vought

Almost all heros outside the seven still lives and do the same bad things without punishment, no real impact on the world that make a scar on the superheros forever

No big showdown that affects everyone alive and show the wrath of superpowers when used by corrupt people (the main idead of the show), no tragic ending that damages the whole world for years

And no pay off to the fan at all , no big fight that gives you meaning after waiting for 5 seasons of gore and sex jokes , not even a big secret or twist like the comics ending and black noir, no cool fights

If you told someone after watching ep1 that the ending is Hughie moving on after robin and working in the same shop with almost "nothing changed" at all in the boys universe, it would be literally all what really happened

I used to love this show but everytime i rewatch it i hate it more sadly

Biggest plot twist in the show…

From Season 4 Episode 1 - meeting Sister Sage for the first time.

Has Hawkeyes head, thors body, and a hood piece and custom trench coat piece

I mean we know V1 supes were already supposed to the the strongest, Soldier Boy and Bombsight for example. With Homelander being the strongest supe, I would’ve thought him getting V1 would have just made him even more unstoppable, and yet he was struggling like crazy with Butcher and Ryan in the finale. What do you guys think you guys?
