I can watch a man melted to death... a man trying to jerk off and get his cock lasered off by Homelander... but that lobotomy scene was just too much
Great episode tho
after seeing the entire first season, I can safely say this gotta be one of the most over hyped, overrated, generic, boring and if not for demon slayer I might have even called it the worst battle Shounen show of this decade, also it's fandom is dangerously steering at the same path MHA fandom took, and finally the female characters sucks contrary to what the fandom says, just because their not sexualized doesn't automatically make them great, you still need to give them an actual personality and goal.
Verdict: 4/10 great animation, boring characters and cliche as all heck story.
The greatest anime series of a generation finally reaches its grand conclusion. 10 years of drama and controversies, especially among the fandom over the manga ending, it's truly been a ride.
This was solid, although there are still loose ends and lots of questions that remain unanswered. And all that other stuff: multiple delays, changing of animation studios before the final season even began, the "questionable" plot twist into the final season, and much more other controversial things that I best rather leave out for internet enthusiasts and adventurers to find out.
Now, for the ending. It was satisfying.Let me explain: Was it the perfect ending? No. Could it have been better? Yes. But then again, it could have gotten any worse than what it was already, from the source material. As another reviewer pointed out, it's more of a compromised ending, between the fans' expectations and the infamous manga ending.
This, honestly in my opinion, is a good example of "a show doesn't need always need a happy ending, just a perfect one"
9/10
I don‘t even like Skyler but this really was not her fault. If Walt had been honest with her about the danger they‘re in she wouldn’t have been this reckless with the money. From her perspective giving it to Ted was necessary to keep the IRS from investigating them. Yes, she should‘ve told Walter about it, but taking his previous reaction into regard – „I earn the money, you launder it“ – it makes sense why she did this on her own.
Heavy stuff.
Why are Jon and Sam seemingly the only people who actually value mercy? It seems like everyone in this show is blinded by their emotions, but at least their emotions tend towards kindness and not anger or pride or righteousness. Sam is honestly my favourite character at this point, he seems to be the only person who actually understands people - apart from Margaery and Olenna, I suppose, but they just use that to manipulate them. Sam wants to help.
Almost everyone else has suffered because they didn't properly think about the consequences of their actions, and certainly every major death so far (except Ygritte, maybe) has been a direct consequence of people underestimating or plain disregarding the emotions of those they considered their (social, moral, intellectual, physical) lessers.
Sansa Stark: *finally having a good day, smiles
Writers: Nuh-huh, no ma'am. Not today!
Few episodes ago I remember someone saying to Robb “You lost the war the day you married her”.
The scorn and cruelty of Tywin's words to Tyrion are impressive. Tyrion is the only worthy person within that family, everyone else is below him. He deserved better.
Love always made men to risk your life and kill for it. If you stop to think, this is an episode about love.
It was a nice touch having Ashley Johnson (the voice of Ellie in the games) playing her Mother.
They hired Dany Trejo just for a 10 minutes appearance? I thought he was going to have a season-long arc! The turtle scene must have been shocking when the episode first aired.
From everything I see people say about this show and how it's essentially one of the greatest shows, I expected that to be the case for every episode, every season, in the sense that it's one of the greatest shows in every single episode and season. While I found this season good and enjoyable, it didn't give me the impression of this show being as great as everyone says. I still believe that this show is much, much better, from the second season onward to the end. I'm just not feeling that "Breaking Bad is one of the greatest shows of all time, if not the greatest" vibe, yet. From this season alone, anyhow. I have no doubt it gets better.
Everyone is so mad and I don't get it. You want the show to be sunshine and rainbows? You want the characters to start considering "oh but I don't want to hurt any of the viewers feelings". If you didn't see that coming, can't foresee just how drastic the Sansa/Theon story line may become, then you are blind. This is not a happy show, and this is not the worst thing I've seen on it.
I loved the early seasons of One Piece. But recently each episode seem to be like 10 minutes long. Most anime tend to have the opening 90 seconds long, but One Piece opening is 2:30 minutes, then follow by a dialog flash back that's 2-3 minutes. One episode I timed that it didn't start until the 5:25 minute mark. Then fights last multiple episode just like Dragonball. It seem they used every trick they can to stretch the show out and provide the least amount of contents.
Are we supposed to ignore the fact that Indiana Jones was 25/26 when he had an affair with Marion when she was 15/16? And she had a falling out with her dad afterwards?
She even says that in movie during her introduction scene in Nepal "I was a child, I was in love. It was wrong and you knew it"
And Jones doesn't even admit that he was WRONG for doing that. "I never meant to hurt you" and "YOU KNEW WHAT YOU WERE DOING" SERIOUSLY?! (After a little research, I actually found out there was a transcript between Lucas and Spielberg where they wanted her to be 12 and Jones 25. They changed her age to 15 later. Wow, so this was VERY intentional.)
Indiana Jones is a creep, nothing more than that. I don't care if this movie is the best adventure, treasure hunter movie or whatever. He is a pedo and nothing is gonna fix that.
You don't believe me? I recommend reading this:

wtf is wrong with you people?
this season is boring? worst episode ever?
go watch the walking dead or something
I'm always amazed that the anti woke people don't realise The Boys is making fun of them
I am absolutely astonished by this show so far. Only thing that bothers me a bit is that Powder is so quick to turn against her sister, seems a bit forced. But that's criticism at a high level, I can't wait to binge the rest tomorrow.
Also RIP Mylo and Claggor, I really hoped we could see them grow, too. Makes for good drama though, and hell, I'm definitely here for that.
Enid is the only character in the show Wednesday has any real romantic chemistry with. Enid's measures taken to celebrate Wednesday's birthday and Wednesday's courtesy when declining to wear the scarf hat thing solidified that for me. Wednesday's nixie tube clock is so awesome. Does anyone know what song the music box played?
Mid Season Finale?!?! No No No No No don't do this to us Amazon!!!!!!!
Stan Edgar:
Then why are you still here?
Are you looking for my approval like I’m your daddy? And even if I were, what would there be to approve of? The company is yours.
No one left to stand up to you.
But I think you’ll come to sorely regret that.
Homelander:
And why is that?
Stan Edgar:
Because there’s no one left to cover for you, either.
Eventually, probably soon, the world will recognize you for the pitiful disappointment you are.
You are not worthy of my respect.
You are not a God.
You are simply bad product.
Stormfront is all about female empowerment but also a sadistic racist? Damn. This show really isn't afraid of anything and I love it xD Can't wait for the moment she gets killed by Kimiko.
They completely nailed the look, feel and vibe of the games and it's fucking amazing.
No reason to evacuate the school because there was a dead body found in the locker.
Wow, that ending sequence with the tree made me more depressed and emotional than the whole show. Humanity really is hopeless, huh... On another note, I was happy to see Erwin one last time.
never unseeing that first 15 mins...
I actually liked it.Danny was always a conqueror not a ruler.She lost all the people she loved and can't trust her own advisers like varys.
I think the downfall is 6 episodes ,if they had gone with 10 like usual it would have been much better paced.
