People have pointed out that Butcher’s graying hairs have gone back to black, so he might be healthier now than before. Gen V season 2 also comes out before season 5 so there could be a jump in time.
I think original butcher is mostly dead, the V cancer is controlling his body now
@@zegg90I think alot of people are misinterpreting the entire episode the cancer can’t control butcher. That is why it quite literally asked him to hold his end of the bargain up. The cancer controls, his power can heal him, etc. but it can’t move. It can’t do all that.
@@itsyaboi9494 Thanks! That makes a lot of sense
Yeah Kessler's in charge now
I’m calling it now, Ashley is going to have a hair related power, like Medusa from Inhumans lol
Be real embarrassing if they can pull off an effect Marvel knew better than to try for on their budget.
@@Saje3Dplus this show mocks DC more than marvel so it would be more like DC Medusa with the classical greek snake hair. "ASHLEE" gonna have worm hair or something 😂
Someone on reddit theorized that she could become the show version of Marvin the Martian.
My bet is Ashley becoming this show version is Hulk. I mean she always stressed out and she got multiple sides in her personality. Being sincere and being fake at the same time
a redheaded dominatrix who can do NSFW things to you with her hair... well...
Zoey didn't watch her mother get ripped in half. She was knocked out by Butcher's tentacle. That's why she didn't say anything when her mother got killed.
Vicky has been struggling with some divided loyalties.
I'm glad Butcher helped her break that off.
🤣
Haha great joke mate, you're the best❤
you thought you ate that 😒
Didn't he still ruined the teams chance to save the world. It's open season on traitors and woke mobs.
@@Thatskeybladelover nyagga please, Victoria had to go since last season.
I rarely cry at movies or tv, but Kimiko getting back her voice at the end just broke me. I think this season really had the highest highs and the lowest lows of the series thus far, but the last two episodes were some of the best of the entire show
Do you think Zoe will have a major part in S5? To get revenge from butcher for killing her mom?
@@38hdjsij She might pop up in Gen V S2. Or like you say Boys S5. Either way I think we will see her again
Why is my number one cliffhanger for this finale waiting to see what Ashley’s superpower is 😂
Might just be that she becomes braniac (extremely smart) enough to defeat Sage
Could be awesome that her got a similar power to butcher, but with her hair xd
It absolutely breaks my heart that the first sound Kimiko makes is a scream of pain. Especially since her trauma that induced her psychological silence was "caused" by her scream.
and Frenchie didn't hear it.....
That was so painful and sad
did you watch episode 7?
Huey didn’t cheat, he had sex with someone who was misleading him and engaged in sex acts with him in a situation where he wasn’t able to give consent, he didn’t cheat, he was assaulted.
people oversimply the situation to side with Huey. Annie was assaulted and massively abused by the same person.
There are gradients between what happened to huey and where and what trauma he suffered here vs earlier this season because of his level of agency in the situation. Annie's self identity was destroyed by the Shifter and by the very fact none could tell her apart from the Shifter for ten days.
@@mangalores-x_xboth of them went through something shitty, and it makes sense no one could tell because the shifter has all of her memories
@@mangalores-x_x Starlight had her identity stolen and her agency taken away, but Huey was sexually assaulted, he was gaslighted and tricked into sex, it’s not one to one. They both suffered, but Huey was raped.
still have faith in Sage destroying Homelander lol but geniuses do love a challenge
Same. I still think she's playing the long game. She had a whole contingency plan just in case HL is feeling petty and emotional. Wouldn't be surprised if she ends up swopping in with a cure after Billy does what Billy does just to manipulate the narrative and come out on top. That way Sage is the hero and people will actually listen to her. She wants validation clearly, but there's something else there too. Sage isn't evil, but she's definitely morally gray. I also still think she's setting Ryan to be on top. She's the only one that picked up on his hesitation when the Homeboy idea was pitched to him.
Can't wait to see what phase 2 is.
@@aria4830lol you goofballs clearly aren't smart. Smart people look down on the rest. Human nature. She's the smartest meaning everyone's a plaything to her. Period. She'll burn the world down and feel completely validated standing on the ashes.
Sage is like Homelander. I thought it was interesting to hear the twisted music we heard at the end of season 3 when Homelander unalived someone in public and the same theme played when Sage said she wanted to do everything because she wanted to see what happened. It would be a crazy twist if Homelander in season 5 desires her because it's finally someone who is his equal and is a person who views humanity in the same detestable light she does.
@@chaost4544 they wouldnt make a new Black supthat hates white people just to be a homelander side kick if so i will pan this show every where
“We just realized we’d make more from the write off” 😂
Theyre not even making a joke. They just referenced a real life event that is so dumb to be real, but it is. Its beyond hilarious lol
@@johans3164 let's just hope they don't do it with gen v and the boys
@@johans3164 I know, RIP Batgirl
Jack and Diane is a song. Sam and Diane is Cheers. I think.
About the Frenchie & Kimiko relationship... Earlier this season I literally told a friend how much I appreciated that this was a platonic male-female friendship that went from Frenchie being attracted to her, putting in the effort, and moving on + still be good supportive friends. Because she expressed not being interested. I was face-palming after realising that I read it wrong... I just didn't really see the romantic love from her side. I guess I was just hoping for something deeper than "guy worked hard for his love interest and the universe reward him with reciprocated love after all". Do people just not put in much effort for platonic relationships...? I'm aroace so it's slightly dissapointing, admittedly on a personal level, that the read was it had to be a romantic conclusion because he put in effort. I might be too biased to judge this... I do like them together so this might be more projected critisism on my part.
Singer dying or not was optional. The mistake I think is believing Sage's plan revolved around just one set of actions/outcomes. That'd be bad planning along the lines of "putting all your eggs in one basket".
No plan survives contact with the enemy so I suspect she was playing multiple angles, if one part fails then she just pivots to another and the eventual outcome is the same. It didn't really matter what path got Homlander to power what mattered is he gets there.
Anyone notice Antony Starr's accent when he first says "Come here"
What I think about Sage, she is defiantly flawed and in her mind she thinks everything going the way that was all apart of her plan because it's working. It's also a way to control Homelander, if she showed up there like "Oh wow, you did all of this without me?" That wouldn't be too smart for the smartest person in the world. Knowing in that moment of Homelanders weakness she can gain control, Sage is the type of person to control people through their emotions. It isn't about being honest.
1:00:13 I think phone reception in The Boysverse is just way better. They never lose reception and can live stream anywhere. 🤷🏻♂️
The they are not engaged at the beginning had me cackling considering what occurs this episode 🤣🤣🤣🤣
When Bobby singer said balls...... He probably snuck that in for all of us supernatural fans
The plan was fine. The President had to go, either murdered by the assassin or trapped by his plan to kill Neuman; it didn't matter which. Neuman was compromised, so her living would also work. Without Neuman, they had the Speaker as back-up.
For the "find my phone", I think it would show the last known location before Hughie entered the bunker, getting Starlight really close & able to zero in right after he left the bunker.
That was my take on it, she plotted the various paths things could take and worked at blocking/directing them so whichever way things went it would end up at her final goal. It didn't matter which path it took, which is why she is a super genius. Neuman could have been disposed of later if she was hard to manage and the murder of the president pinned on her.
Generational fumble from Grace right there honestly
the song is Jack and Dianne. Sam and Dianne were the characters from Cheers. We may need to hold onto your nerd card for a little bit Nerdy.
Fuck I had em a bit jumbled in the noggin there 😂
@@NerdyNightly at the very least it gave me a reason to comment for the algorithm... Or was that the plan all along duh duh duuuuuuuh
Even if the Find My Phone didn't work in the actual bunker, wouldn't it report the last few successful ping locations? That would probably be enough to lead her to them.
Butcher has been swinging back and forth between being good or evil.
Turns out that Vicky was also divided 😳
Well, Mia Khalifa handed those tentacles better than neuman, i guess she couldn't take the pressure haha😂😂😂
If you check out Butcher again during the Nueman death scene he is looking FRESH. I believe him giving into the Negan-parasite-thing has made him closer to a full blown supe, which might save him from the illness and bring some vitality back.
Yeah regarding Sage, if you have plans for every outcome then your plan worked.
Edit: starlight would have the last location the phone could be pinged at so she's close enough.
Me: "damn, i liked Vickys character and kinda feel bad for her."
*Remembers shes killed soo many people and was fully willing to help Homelander and place people in internment camps until she realized she was being used*
"Nah, her character deserved it."
She totally deserved it. She has always been about killing people for her own agenda, then when she realized she dug herself into a hole and that it was gonna be her turn to be killed she cried out to the Boys, as if she wouldn't kill them the second she wouldn't need them.
I do feel bad for Zoe and maybe Neuman would've been more useful alive than dead, because it would've fucked Sage's plan.
I saw on another channel a reminder that in the Animated show Diabolical there's an episode where an old man uses Compund V ti save his wife who's dying of cancer and the V turned the cancerous tumor into a sentient tentical monster.
Because I love watching my favorite reactor watching these shows, I've exposed myself to this traumatic tragedy more times today than I care to think. The only way that there is another season after this will be some really hinky deus ex machina.
I always wonder exactly what Robert Singer's super power is that he always gets to play characters with his own name... it seems like he has a charm related to easter eggs or something. Also, LOVE the Nirvana overly at the end. Hey, say, I got a new complaint, forever in debt to your priceless advice... (Homelander to Sage). Finally, Kate. I have Kates, Katys and Kaitlyns in my life (even a Katherine or two) and they are all touchy about the wrong name... Kate.
I think part of Sage's plan was the House Speaker would become the president, eliminating both Singer and Vicky.
Completely unrelated comment: Have you guys watched Sweet Tooth? Did you know our favorite space captain pirate Camina Drummer from The Expanse (Cara Gee) is in Season 3? 😊
37:25 Cindy simultaneously ripped 4 steel doors off their hinges as easily as tearing paper. If I'm being entirely honest, judging solely from the nature of each characters' powers and the visuals involved... I've long considered Cindy to be the likely #2 most powerful supe (in terms of offensive combat) after Homelander, and in fact on her initial introduction in Season 2 thought *she* was going to be set up as the threat to Homelander (before she was simply never seen again). Never have I, on the other hand, thought that Starlight could take Homelander head-to-head. The biggest issue with taking on a trained telekinetic, in terms of actual combat, is that they can quite literally hold you in place. They can vice-grip your arms and legs and prevent you from being able to move as they tear you apart. And the targeted control she showed when ripping those four doors open simultaneously shows that not only is she extremely powerful, but her skill/ability *is* either trained, or at least innate to the point where she has that degree of fine control over it. As a rough comparison, I would imagine here Dane Dehaan's character Andrew from the movie Chronicle, as an approximate gauge of what I would consider Cindy to likely be capable of.
Also Anni isn't particularly strong. I always think of that scene in the season 3 finale where she gets juiced up by all of the lights in the Vaught studio and her resulting beam just knocks soldier boy back.
Oh and Cindy did the Kovira move when she crushed that little piece of metal.
This is The Boys' Empire Strikes Back.
Yeah, i also seriously wanted to know if Ashley (Ashlee 😄) now became the Hulk, or whatever else ? And now the long wait again 😟😟
Going back and rewatching this season with an eye for how Sage could/did manipulate things? Why that's just Critical Sage Theory!
I just noticed that Sam is so strong ,he took a punch from Kimoko like nothing and held her like an adult holding a kid
This finale was peak for the boys,homelander finally snapped and is calling the shots,shapeshifter is dead,ASHLEY TOOK COMPOUND V,noir and the deep duo,ryan killing grace,evil butcher finally in control AND KILLED NEUMAN,sister sage is back,sam and katie jump kimiko then SHE FINALLY TALKED and frenchie GETS KIDNAPPED,love sauasage whacking mm with his you know what,the bald psychic/telekinesis girl,That part where starlight activates her powers and flys off into the sky near the end was sooo badass,THEN SOILDER BOY AT THE END,This was perfect writing what a way to end a season,I knew A-train would survive but noone believed me,WHAT A SEASON FINALE STRAIGHT 🔥🔥FR 😂😂
MM got that Drake treatment
There's a difference between neumann and marie..... Notice Butcher covered her eyes before ripping her in two. That's the difference, while marie doesn't need her eyes to pop, she just needs to feel the blood
Not sure if you were going for Ariel from The Little Mermaid, but the hair, the top, and the way the chair looks, it’s a total (if not on purpose) Ariel cosplay. As for this episode… holy fucking shit.
The pipeline to Canada needs to open for real soon. The Handmaid's Tale is fast approaching and the US is quickly turning into Gilead. Can I bunk with you?
Do you guys think we'll see some or all of the boys getting jailbreaked in Gen V? If they're not, both Gen V's and the Boyz next seasons will start very similiarly.
Was thinking how cool if whenever Joe appears in the background they played that same music tune as in Battlestar Galactica whenever the blonde number 6 appeared to Baltar.
One thing I don't understand is why Zoe ended up in Red River and not with Stan Edgar? 🤔
@luiscarrera3458 at best he's currently a fugitive on the run. As Zoe was probably placed by a state agency there's no way he gets custody.
As far as we know, only Neumann knows where Stan is. Even she might not know though, he might has tool off after she freed him.
I think the next season starts with Annie trying to find A-Train so they can break the Boys out.
"I don't know which way she is going" both ways actually lol
You guys are the first people to notice kimiko screaming the second she did it
lol you sure about that?
@@LifeisANovel he probably means first people hes seen, chill
@@rileytruax766 I can't understand that run-on sentence.
@@LifeisANovel oh im sorry the lack of a comma between the word "seen" and "chill" confused you? might be a you problem there bud cause that's not really a run on sentence. its one sentence like wtf 😂
@@rileytruax766 😂🤣😭
My thought is that Ashley is breaking out the Gen V kids.
0:58 “is it cheating… I don’t think they’re engaged” OH THE FORESHADOWING
Black Noir and The Deep sharing a single brain cell all season is unexpected but hilariously dangerous.
Im calling Ashley getting brain power like Sage and team up with who ever is left and ruin her plan.
Really hope Starlight finally shows her hands next season and have lil lone wolf action
omg Nerdy DOES look like a younger David Harbour i see it now
I've met Nerdy's twin, Birdie. He's works at an aviary.
Vicky deserved better than that
She had it coming
No, she doesn't. Not after all the people she betrayed/killed. I feel sorry for Zoe, but not Neuman.
Agreed. She was having a character turn like A-Train.
@@noteasybeingweezynah she just realized she wasn’t in control and wanted to bail.
By “better” you mean a more epic and drawn out death?
wait it was interesting to see nerdy and clarus talk about long time friends-to-lovers because isn't their love story also long time friends-to-lovers ?
"Final Ashley" actually wouldn't be a bad supe name...
lol it's The Boys, why would you ever say "As least it can't get worse"? :DDD It definitely will.
loved all your reactions to this season! go on!
So ..I have watched a few of the reaction vids to this episode..no one figures in how Gen V will also incorporate this and next season but you at least have thought about this!!.. the only choice they have will be the Gen V super to become part of the good guys. I do like your mental jumps..congratulations.
Ohhhh! Y'all are Canadian? That explains...nothing. Yall looking good, keep doing what y'all doing. Love the reactions.
Ashley's becoming the Medusa of this universe
Sam and Kate. Kate is her name lol
Is starlight finally tapping into the suns power instead of the triple A batteries 😂
This season was the final straw for me with Butcher. He is officially in Walter White territory where I am actively rooting against him, but he is this anti-hero main character so he will never go down and it slowly starts to ruin the show for me.
yeah im in canada and i didnt see any warning
They recently confirmed The Boys season 5 is the last season.
Quote the ashleys "scandalous"
I just found out that Hughie and Vicky are dating in real life and it just made all of this a lot more interesting. :D
also the finger thing was obviously about hughie no guy thinks 2 fingers is a lot when it comes to putting em in a girl lol
Oh boy, Sage is a f*cking PROBLEM...
2:04 Youse do youse, I ain’t kink shaming.
Meave is coming back next season and she will be part of Sage's Phase 2. I'm convinced of that. Reference has already been made several times to the book with Meaves' comic image. This is no coincidence. Edgar will want to avenge Vic's death and we will probably see her daughter again in Gen V. Soldierboy is coming back and I hope Stormfront with it too. Then the whole family is united. Because I still believe that she is alive and Edgar is hiding her and that she is Homelander's mother. Her ovaries and Soldierboy's semen.
Sage is back. Will Black Noir and Deep stay in the relationship with her?
Finally the old season 1 Billy is back. He's going to top that Omelanduh wanker no matter what it takes.
Because I'm sure we'll all remember in 2 years...Sage can cure cancer. They hammered that point home, so surely that won't come up again in season 5.
@marcs1951 that wasnt confirmed kessler just said he can give him more time if he gives up control of his body and i assume most of his mind since he still recognizes friends he still has a parasite that i assume is slowly killing him. i could be wrong but i never got the idea that butcher isnt gonna die now

i hope they can squeeze in one more season of gen v before the next and hopefully final season....
for what reason though? i feel like they would just merge the 2 for the final season. theres a good chance the boys might be getting sent to where marie and the others are
@@rileytruax766 well... wouldn't that just be too messy...
with all the characters to keep track of...
we know the boys pretty well now after 4 seasons...
but we don't know the kids well enough yet... they would just be background characters to the boys without more development I think....
@@GarmrsBarking they brought cate and sam in and why would they not have them all in the same show at some point? and yeah they could just be like minor roles again i could be wrong just sharing my theory
@@rileytruax766 did they have any lines at all???
I just think there is more story to tell with them...
@@GarmrsBarking again like you said they could just be background characters and yes actually cate and sam do have lines
Season 2 of Gen V Ryan and Zoe's freshman love story...
biggest question still is who the fuk i this black noir? is it a clone
why neuman why. i loved her. they can't kill the boys i guess, need to go to process as a human being, like being in prison.
The GOAT is back
I hope they can get Jared Padalecki in there somehow....
@@GarmrsBarkingJared said he will do it since Walker ended. But who knows till it happens.
Was waiting for your reaction😂
and it Kate... so close
WAITING FOR GEN V SEASON 2 soon
@marcs1951 why... the first season of gen v happened between season 3 and 4 of the boys...
do you expect season 5 to pick up right where this one left off…
moreover, different things can happen at the same time...
@@GarmrsBarking yes it could be continued IN GENV season 2 OR wait till 2026 THE BOYS season 5
I refuse to believe Neuman is gone. I wouldn't be surprised if she ....
to all my fellow victoria stans marie will avenge mother and save zoe from red river
we still got another cuntiful queen left (starlight)
Weirdo
@@hecrosegreat3943 boo you're so boring
Die Boys, nicht das Boys. just saying.
1:37 😂😂
To answer your question in the intro, no, its not cheating. Its called sexual assault by decepion. Kripke continues to write Hughie's continuous assaults as a joke.
Bro starlight yelling and making hughie apologize for getting taken advantage of really made me lose any respect i had for her character that was left🤦🏾♂️
@@FrmDa505I can see how it could hit her self confidence and self esteem in a big way knowing the love of her life had such a good time with someone that isn't herself. To such an extent that he didn't notice that its not her.
BUT she should not take it out on Hughie, especially with all that he's already been through this season.
@@gavinderulo12 i mean yeah i do get that to a certain extent but she has to remember the fact he was taken advantage of and r**ed multiple times.
@@gavinderulo12 i can kinda see that to a certain extent but he was literally taken advantage of. she could of told him she needs space to think about things bc it affected her weird bc it would affect anyone weird but to victim blame him? Is crazy.
@@FrmDa505 I agree she shouldn't have blamed him. They were both victims of the situation.
Not telepath. Telekinetic.
now this is how you do a finale! take notes acolyte shit...
What did the shape shifter get out of sleeping with her?
What’s so special about this show??????? Imma keep my eyes on y’all for now on. Ain’t no way y’all think this show is good
The treatment of Hughie and Starlight this season was atrocious. He gets raped and she yells at him about it. Completely unforgivable storylines.
It’s frustrating that it was easier to tell the difference between Annie and Shifter in 1 episode than Osha and Mae in 8 episodes
probably becuase they didn't hide it for very long lol its like 10 minutes between the shifter taking annies form in the bar to when its revealed to us lol
@@rileytruax766 I know, I know. I’m just being a bitch
I feel like S5 is going to end with Sage casually walking away from the ruined crater that used to be Homelander, going "Did you really think I would let a whitebread fascist like you run the world?"
That is so cringey.
