Great season final. A few interesting twists I didn't expect. Human companions off the board. Butcher is back with a bonus. Starlight is back. Sage is back. Homelander unhinged and his son undecided. Enter Gen V prisonners next season.
Ashley! LOL! Such a survivor. I hope her power is related to her missing hair. Marvel Medusa or Greek Medusa?

I'm amazed that they manage to keep the quality up. Season 4 was incredible with a great ending and the right resolution/cliffhanger ratio. Looking forward to S5.
Good finale, fairly weak season overall (definately the weakest of the show overall). I am glad they brought Sage back with the "all part of my plan" (being the smartest human ever you absolutely should have plans within plans within plans). That said I would have like to know what her plan was to take Neumann out (as I wouldn't buy the "oh I know butcher will take her out"....maybe she might hope for it but wouldn't plan for it).
I will say the final round-up was nice to put some competency back into the villains. It just shows that the boys are still amateurs in certain ways, once the investigative resources of the federal govt were brought to task it was trivial to find them all. Lastly, I am liking the new deep. He's going dark (removed of some of the comedic trappings) and its a neat transition, he is embracing his "quite formidable" powers, but he is mistaking fear for respect. But as it showed with that guy he killed, he has been so starved for respect that he doesn't care, fear....respect.....he'll take it anyway he can get it.

That would be amazeballs! No matter her powers, I hope she plays a major role in the downfall of Homelander; it's probably not fair to the narrative of "The Boys take down the supers," but I wouldn't mind if she's the one who actually ends him, and doing so by turning him into a statue (of himself) in some super-ific pose would be hilarious.

Excellent finale. While this season had some great episodes, it did feel weaker overall compared to the last season. The last 2 episodes really helped the overall season and I’m looking forward to the story rapping up in the next season and Gen V season 2.
yeah I'm really curious what they will do with Gen V season 2.

I finally finished it.
I don't know. It's weird. It just feels off from the rest of the show. Overall I liked it, but not as much as I liked the previous seasons.
Sister Sage is a great character. I can't believe I'm saying this but I feel bad for Firecracker. She got what she wanted only to get tossed to the side at the end. Finding out that Homelander's appreciation of her is like directly inverse to her love for him.
I enjoyed A-Train having his personal internal struggles, and flipping sides. Black Noir is great. I feel like he's the character we as the viewers are supposed to relate to. He keeps having these "Am I the only one who sees how crazy this all is?" moments.
I love Karl Urban, and Butcher was a blast all season. The ending was particularly fun. The Boys finally gaining confidence in themselves, and each other, and deciding to take charge by taking a chance with Victoria. It's like "Yes, we got this! Maybe we can get along on our own.. We'll be fine without Butcher!" only for him to show up at the final second and dash all that.
Some people in here have already addressed things that feel weird.. Like the continuity issues.. Mainly the power levels and just exactly how invulnerable Supes are or aren't depending on what's most convenient at the time.
All in all I enjoyed it.. I'll be looking forward to the next season.
