I’m sorry but I can’t get over the Kimiko scene in the finale. Because you spend all season hitting us with “you’re teaming up with a murderer” and “you don’t get to decide who to serve up on a platter” and “no one should have that kind of power”. And then you make a point of the characters wanting to evacuate the Vought tower, and have Hughie say “we save everyone. Even if they don’t deserve it”. And then you have Kimiko killing people at the Vought tower for fun and it’s framed as empowering and not as concerning???

#the boys #how is this scene different from butcher and hughie's scene in 3x04 #they were also saving someone while using their powers. killing ppl and having fun #yet that was clearly framed as a red flag #i see people saying that since they were vought they are also bad #ok. then what was the fucking point of evacuating the building. of 'you dont get to decide who dies'#of 'we save everyone even if they don't deserve it'#what was the point of having the supes dying at herogasm and it being framed as a tragedy #half of them probably also worked at vought and like blue hawk were pieces of shit #i understand that these characters are not entirely good #but this season they drew a line of what they should and shouldn't do #yet depending on the character we're supposed to have different reactions?#and on top of all this kripke's 'it's a burden to her'#i think it was a burden for 5 seconds before she chose her song #and all of this is ok bcs she 'has accepted her power'#ok hughie skipped the 'burden' step and got to acceptence faster #what is the difference?#bucher. hughie and kimiko all took v bcs they wanted to save someone #ryan. annie and frenchie. but all of them seem to enjoy the v for themselves more than for the people they want to save #'she's accepting her powers' she is not fucking neuman. non of her powers need to end in people dying if she doesn't want to #she smashed the dude's head 10 times to the floor. that was just for her #im not tagging anything else. this came out a lot more negative that what i was expecting lol #the writing this season but especially this episode... is something else #none* lmao there's probably more typos there #my post
