How is Hughie his greatest enemy? 😂 He can't even hurt him anymore. Butcher and the other boys actually willing to kill him are his enemies @@darkclaw1462
A-Train's character development has been interesting. From steroid-abusing playboy with no regard for others' collateral damage, to a regretful, sober, and washed-up celebrity.
why wouldn’t they tho? you should be able to tell hes gonna get killed from the type of show this is especially since queen may survived it’s unlikely it’ll happen again
Whoever decided to turn A-Train into an Anti-Villain, who slowly realises what a bad person he is, and tries to make things right, whatever it takes, needs a raise.
Seriously. It's even more impressive that they've made his journey actually believable. A lot of anti-villain redemptions aren't handled nearly this well, and can come off as feeling rushed or disingenuous. But for A-Train, they're pretty much nailing it.
Realistically A-Train was bad but not as bad BECAUSE he was only evil due to the drugs and chasing the fame. He wasn't thinking straight off of the CV. Now that he isnt using it anymore he's basically a sober clean supe who's realized the fame doesn't make you a good person or better. He's the most human out of the 7
@@LA_Too_Human He still was a bad person. He laughed when talking about how he ran through Robin and did not show any remorse until he had to kill his own girlfriend. Also, his brother plays a big part in his character development. A-Train is starting to become my favourite character from the show.

i've always liked him honestly, although he's what started everything and hasn't been a good person i still think he's been the best out of the 'bad guys'
Maybe bc s5 is the finale season and i think it would make sense to kill off a train bc his redemption is then finished so it would make sense @@ErosIX
@@ErosIXYou can tell he still has a long way to go, he's definitely dying at some point, but it would be weird to do it so early when he has probably the most character development potential out of any character in the show
A Train is, in my opinion, by far and away the best departure from the comics. He’s honestly my favorite character. They’ve done a great job of giving him depth and relatable motivations and now showing that he’s realized what a piece of shit he’s been. I know they’re probably still going to kill him off, but man I’m not ready for it.
Every character is lowkey hella different than the comics and it's great because it has an actual story and real characters not just killing everyone with a ton of blood and gross stuff

@@breakfaith3031That’s wild. I wonder if they purposely flipped that around to tell all the comic readers that the show and comics are going to be VERY different.

I think the showrunner made a mistake giving her such puny powers. They shouldve made her a threat so we could take her threats seriously. At least a threat for a train bc her powers are pretty much iseless against supes
@@gwc_garage yeh but she’s making threats like she’s homelander or soldier boy. difference is they actually back their shit up easily. starlight is a kimiko victim
And deservedly so. That's exactly what he should be right now, if he feels remorse. But we also got that scene last episode of the kids seeing him drop someone off at the hospital, and the actual smile he had on his face when for the first time a kid got to see him be a hero and it wasn't a lie.
@@rorschac009oo8 When he was sacked from the Seven, I really thought that Fishboy was gonna have a redemption arc. But then he rejoined and was about to suck A-Train's love sausage 😂
@@Trojanpigehe kinda had the opposite arc from a-train, who the framing of the show often compares him to. He had every chance to see his flaws and become better and only doubled down.
I'm so happy they are redeeming one of the best characters in The Boys. Where some of the characters run in a circle, caught in a repetitive time loop of cruelty and deception he is breaking free and becoming a better person and a good super. It is difficult to look within yourself, acknowledge and admit to your imperfections.
He's supposed to eventually get killed for homelander during his redemption arc. You have to remember anyone working for homelander who "redeems" themselves, is truly just going against him. Unless a train gains some crazy power up, homelander will very like kill him for being good
maybe but i can't see him doing anything, he doesn't have anyone that would flip him, i guess the only thing that could change is he starts feeling guilt but seems unlikely
@@JonathanSendrowski sage and A-train were the only ones unconfortable watching the supes killing that defenseless "ashleys ex bf".. I think sage will realize that Homelander will eventually snap and wont be satisfied even with her giving him the perfect plans.. she most likely knows A-Train gave them the V and they might ally at the finalle against the rest of the 7 to protect the president.. they both might die, deep will stay as a coward and fight with Homelander but his heart will get divided after he kills sage and then.. only then he might start to flip at season 5.. he's actually one of the few who doesnt die in the comics so he might actually make it
Its hard not to relate to A-Train. Someone, who wants to be good but due to their circumstances they just go with the flow for a while, even it's wrong. Until a new tide takes you to make you better.
I absolutely love how his redemption is very slow and methodical. And even though he is improving as a person, he hasn’t gotten to a point where anyone can actually forgive him or perceive him as good. This trope of a bad character immediately becoming good and everyone forgiving them instantly is far too common in media because writers don’t want to write compelling redemption stories (I guess).
When he saved MM , the kid looking and he's starts to genuinely similes with self proud and feeling like a real hero, such a nice shot and very good acting.
Man I know A-Train was such an asshole in Season 1, but I really started to like him. I really want him to finally become a good man and it looks like he really becomes one. He was such an asshole but I still don't want him to die.
the best way to end his arc is him and homelander fight, homelander injures him very badly but he doesnt kill him, a train is hurt so bad and asks for hughie to end him finally get him his revenge while at the same time forgiving him by putting him out of his misery, a train dies. a little bit after wards hughie goes to his brother to tell the news, while ending with "he died as a hero..."

I’m really glad A Train got a better arc this season. He’s one of the most interesting characters of the show.
A-Train is finding his soul, and that makes me worry for him.
Even after all this time, Hughie finally accepted his apology for running through Robin
I went from hating A-Train to loving A-Train
I used to hate A-Train in S1-2, but his change in 3 and 4 has made really love him. He has slowly made his way into my top 5
It's going to be real sad when he ends up like me.
The amount of times that Hughie saves a train, and hughie being a trains first real save is genuinely some type of poetry.
I don’t think I’ll be ready for his death😢
They really be having homelander kill the black supes crazy
Seeing him save M.M., and that kid gives him a genuine look of wonder, it was so impactful.
I don't want him to get the Black Noir treatment man... setting him up only to kill him in a blow. Please let A-Train survive.
Redemption arcs are good.

I’m going to make a prediction now since this is the boys, after all the good he has done, he’s going to get the most disrespectful death in the show
