Almost to the end! But Gen V was renewed for season 2! Definitely do Invincible or Shogun next! 😃

[@nerdingout_nmoe]

Yes! Thank you so much for sticking around since the beginning! I really want to watch Shogun. Since I'm not sure whether the entire show is in Japanese, I'm going to do a test reaction of the first episode to see how well I can react while reading the subtitles in case the entire show is in Japanese.

I watched your another reaction to Gen V and I have some things to say:
1. I absolutely love the reveal that Shetty's hatred for Supes is related to the plane crash from the 4th episode of The Boys S1 😉
And speaking of Shetty, I actually think she loved Cate (in a very sick way but still) and treated her like a daughter, and I think Indira's plan was to kill all Supes besides her (Cate would probably have to be locked somewhere so she wouldn't be infected).
One of the things that The Boys/Gen V creators were always showing us is that the world isn't black and white and no one is 100% good or bad but ofc some people are more good/evil than the others.
Plus, experiencing awful stuff in life isn't an excuse for hurting innocent people.
2. I heavily doubt that the virus could evolve to something that would affect regular people 'cause Doctor Cardosa said in the 6th ep. that it attaches to Compound V.
However, I wonder, if it could potentially do something to Butcher or Hughie since they were taking Temp V, tho it's not exactly the same drug as Compound V so maybe not.
3. I absolutely love the reveal that Neuman (btw. I and some other people correctly guessed that she's Marie's benefactor, even before it was officially confirmed but tbh, it wasn't really that hard to guess, given that she also grew up at Red River) has the same powers as Marie 😁
I also love the fact that after she killed Cardosa, ,,Heads Will Roll" started playing lol
And yes, I agree that Victoria or actually the actress playing her - Claudia Doumit is very pretty and I think Jack Quaid (actor playing Hughie) is a really lucky guy (if you dunno, Claudia and Jack are dating) 😉
4. Here's more things that I love about this episode - Grace Mallory's cameo (especially her referencing Butcher and the reveal that someone was listening to her conversation with Shetty) and the scene with Andre trying to rescue his dad 😁
5. If you already watched the last ep., I hope you didn't skip the post-credit scene at the end of it.
6. Here's a cool fun-fact - Thomas Schnauz who was one of the writers of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul (btw. I actually watched BB and BCS for the first time last year and I absolutely loved those shows) is also one of the writers of the upcoming 2nd season of GV and he said in a recent interview that the filming of S2 will start in 2-3 weeks, which isn't very surprising, given that there were social media posts from some of the cast that suggested that the shooting of 2nd season will start pretty soon.
7. Fun-fact - in TB comics Godolkin was named John and he was very different and much more messed up, and the whole story with Godolkin University was almost completely changed in GV.
Actually, a lot of people who have major problems with the comics (and it seems like they are a majority), heavily dislike the story about John Godolkin, Godolkin University and its students, and most of them prefer the Gen V version of it.
8. I definitely recommend watching Invincible (btw. in few days, there's gonna be a premiere of the 2nd part of S2; also, S3, which was confirmed alongside S2 back in 2021, is already in production) 'cause IMO it's as awesome as TB/GV 😉

Definitely did not skip the post-credit scene! Got me so excited for S4 of The Boys!
