“If flash can keep her running for another 119 seconds she’ll burn off her speed” *barry immediately stops her from running*

2:12 they say Barry is the fastest man alive but I don't know. With how fast team flash pulled up, they might actually be the fastest thing in existence.

Mmm... I don’t know about this pairing, but it at least shows one of the only times where Thawne is capable of love

To everyone saying that this Thawne is going to go evil when he gets his memories back, you're probably right. But you have to remember that this is Flashpoint/Legends Thawne, the one that _redeemed himself and died for the sake of history._ This Thawne is the one that died a _hero._ So when he gets his memories back, he'll remember how he sacrificed himself for others.

FINALLY bro flash is showing that he is way faster while not trying he’s probably only using 0.5 percent of his speed rn and he accidentally won, I’m so happy they aren’t nerfing him anymore

"You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself becoming the vilain." But in Eobard's case, and because he learnt from Flash, this means that he'd rather die a good person than live without Meena Dhawan and potentially become what Flash told him..

Eobard working with Team Flash. I never thought I'd see the day!

"The health-conscious partner who never let me have a cheeseburger!" That took me out of the heartfelt moment, but damn, did I laugh.

I believe once Eobard gets his memories back, he's going to help his future self and now he will also get his powers here. You can almost see why he was about to become Reverse Flash. Barry had so much anger towards him and being aggressive. You saw how he was starting to take it personally. I believe he will wake up and become what he's meant to be.

Alternate version Good Thawne is a complete asset, he's like a Harrison Wells 😍😍😍

I love how Eobard is helping out with team flash

The performances in this part was really top notch 👏👏👏

I love the line Eobard says, "No. You saved me.". He finally gets to live his life away from being the reverse flash. Saved him against his destiny and also loving him as a person. I believe that this is when Eobard's origin story starts. He is an anomaly to the timeline, because Eddie of course killed himself. Unless he is from another earth = different timeline. But because he is an anomaly to the timeline, and was never born, but he is still necessary to the creation of the flash. So I think the time wraiths kept this version of Eobard alive and memories wiped to live his life till the future, to keep the timeline intact. Then until the 23rd century or 2024, that is when he finally awakens again. Or maybe like the comics, slowly he becomes a fan of the flash, but always had his doubts maybe because Barry was demanding that he was the reverse flash. And he sees Barry as a villain not fixing famine and war and so on as he says in this episode. Then when he says he was going to make his debut to save a group of people like 8x05, Barry stole his show. Then it was then that Eobard accepted his fate, his past that he is indeed truly always destined to be the reverse flash like the comics, whether he's in prison thinking of it or whatever. The negative speed force also is interestingly interpreted this episode. Whether it's lazy writing that all negative speed force users are like reverse flash or it's what drives Eobard's hate. It seems that it has a life of its own. Meena doing the same actions and having the same thoughts of killing Barry when she doesn't even know him. It's possible that the negative speed force has a hate carried over from Eobard that it has become it's own, and when speedsters access the negative speed force, they access his hate for Barry. Even though Eobard was a good man, but it is because the negative speed force get in and over his head, and they chose him as the avatar of the negative force just like Barry is the avatar/king of the Speed force, which led to the creation of the Flash. Just like the lightning chose Barry. It's all a time loop. If he's in prison he could potentially meet Godspeed and he teams up with him, referencing back to the newspaper in the still force, where it says Zoom and Godspeed causing havoc. Even though the picture shows zoom, but it's possible that it is Eobard thawne and not hunter Zolomon because earth 2 characters from season 2 doesn't exist. That part is confusing. But you get the rough idea of Reverse flash's twisted origin. He is anomaly, a time loop reliving his life over and over again, just to keep the timeline safe.

Woah Barry has another ability. I call it…the Lightning wave. (Sounds better in my head ngl)

This has been one of the best episodes of the season! Definitely with the plot twist of Deon betraying Barry

I love how Eobard defend Barry Allen

Speed…Unlimited Speed! While shooting out lightning….I see what you did there. 😏

For anyone confused this is negative speedforce taking over meena's body and Thawne is good since he forgot about his past and found meena

Back in season 5, I recall Nora asking her dad if he thought that Thawne could ever be redeemed and here we are seeing it in season 8. In a deleted season 1 scene with Joe, we saw Thawne admit he has loved ones in the 23rd century.

I like good guy thawne. Hope it sticks. Would be interesting to have both versions around, at odds with each other

Dang we haven’t seen Barry run on water in a while!

I could tell that wasn't mean! It had to be the negative speed force because mean doesn't know that Barry is connected to the speed force, thawne does and it wanted to kill Barry meaning that the negative speed force took over her body and it also said killing the flash is its purpose meaning it has to be the negative speed force bc it was expelled fro thawnes body so what if a negative speed force entity was created

In the thumbnail I was like ‘wait hold up? Is that an old granny?’

'If Flash can keep her running for another 119 seconds she'll burn off the rest of her speed' Barry - immediately throws a lightning bolt at her

i love the close up of her face when she's running. Oh I see, it's the most replayed part of the video 😅

Seeing the effect of the Negative Speed Force on Meena makes me think that it is partially to blame for Thawne being evil, but I think in the original timeline that he didn’t meet Meena (unless older Thawne is lying) and that he was humiliated by Barry as The Flash (as future older Thawne stated), but it was a more explosive version of what we saw in this week’s episode and the Negative Speed Force amplified it.

1:02 to 1:05, no joke, it's literally better than season 1 CGI. It looks so realistic bro.

LMAO She used a bargain bin version of Uchiha Sasuke's Kirin when she was laying on the ground 😂

I know they didn’t write her saying speed unlimited speed while shooting force lightning palpatine must be proud

I like the way meena’s actress run It’s realistic having this close up view Make me feel like she’s really running

Palpatine: unlimited power!! Negative Flash: unlimited speed...

Who sheds tears when they see that Eobard is finally happy?

I really hope we see a version of reverse flash with his suit from the new 52 that had black lightning

This is probably Thawne's redemption, even though it's a different time line of Thawne...

“Who knows what we could become without Love” - Joe West

It’s been awhile since we had a Flash Fight on the water.

"My name is Eobard Thawne. Ladies and gentlemen: The Flash."

Cool to see them taking inspiration from the most recent comics arc with Eobard. He gets a happily ever after. ^_^

And the talk no Jitsu saves the day once again

You either die a villain, or live long to see yourself become the hero.

I wish i was in this universe seeing how everyone can be a speedster id bet id have a chance to become fast

"Speed... Unlimited... SPEED" Nice Star Wars reference there.

Man said to keep her running for another 119 seconds and instead he decides to not do that and knock her out. Ig it's because Thawne said it and he doesn't trust him maybe?

With that Thawne was finally allowed to feast on a glorious cheeseburger.

Thawne got hit with that Season 7 Power of LOVE! 😂

I freaking called it! She’s turned just like in the comics, only this time she didn’t absorb the negative speed force from Barry

0:37 wow cw you’ve outdone yourself

At last we've got Matt Letscher... Even at this weird version. He must be the reverse flash not Tom Cavanagh. Tom is an incredible actor but the original face of RF is Matt.

That is something I never thought I would see

Flash wants to save everyone and Everyone wants to kill flash. It's a hard fight when you can't go all out

Eobard became evil due to his obsession impress the Flash, for which he tried to get the Speed Force powers but ended up getting a -ve one which corrupted him to the dark side.

1:35 they literally took this from naruto lol

A good thawne, now i have seen everything

1:00 cool shot of Barry throwing a lightning bolt while jumping off water 100% totally didn't cause unaturally high tides. 1:23 I like how Barry asks his friend is she ok after sending her flying back onto land while both of them are going fast enough to run on water and generate electricity. Since Barry took like an hour or so for his arm to be regenerated after being broken in season 1 then she is like dead in this season since Barry is like very much more faster than in season 1, so she is like 2x dead at this point, ain't no healing factor that can make her soul come back.

For someone that only has watched snippets tell me if I am wrong about this; Both the speed force and negative speed force have the same effect without having a "lightning rod" as Barry says, you're not able to reach max speed and you lose control but for different reasons.

This part was so epic👍💯❤

The CGI Here Is Good But The CGI Before Like At The Opening Scene Was Bad But Atleast This Was Good

Season 8 and parts of Season 7 have fully brought me back to the show. Nothing can beat the first season, but this comes close.

3:17 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 y did I never think I’d hear the word cheeseburger on the flash

So...No one is going to note that the flash would've defeated her if he kept her running ?

Okay Deon didn't betray Barry his body was taken over. In Into the Still Force a collection of temporal isotopes sent Nora into the still force, the isotopes were identified by Nora as Deon and they had his voice, indicating that he isn't in control of his body. The only thing that could potentially take over the Still Force avatar's body is the Negative Still Force that is who/what we saw at the end of the episode.

Omg best episode I’ve ever watch 10/10 I haven’t even finished it yet props to cw seriously I love you the episode is amazing I wish I could even donate that’s how good an episode this was seriously I swear to god this episode 8x18 if my favorite episode of the flash and is in the top 5 episodes of all shows I’ve watched, props to cw 10/10

wow negative flash, after that we want to see π flash, square flash, root flash, logarithm flash, binary flash, string flash, number flash, array flash, object flash..

Soon, we will see everyone in the series as a speedster.

Wow! CW just gave us the Full story of the Reverse Flash's origin. In the original timeline where Thawne didn't have Mena he used that device and got corrupted by the negative speed force turning him into the Reverse Flash. But in this time line he met Mena And her influence not only helped him built the device faster but influenced him to be more selfless that he would let her have the power something the original would never have done, she became his Iris West.

I think the universe needs Reverse Flash / Negative Speedforce to maintain balance because the timeline already screwed up a lot of times. Just like when Barry asked Thawne to kill his mother again, the negative speedforce shouldn't be taken from Thawne.

Bro.. the acting? Meena's actor is doing amazing.

Nice one

This was a really good episode, I'm glad they didn't drag out the new speedster's identity for six epsiodes while Barry tries to figure out who it is

Eobard thawne getting a redemption arc? Dope.

This new Speedster is the cutest adorable thing and a great character. I am enjoying her.

This season was loveable

That is the first time we all see thawne kiss!

wow! excellent, I like the lightning Barry threw to stop her.

Seeing these new people in the bus Patrick scream “who are you people?!”

What a shot 👏

This season is bringing the flash back. Hope it stays this way.

Is frost really coming back to life? The scene caught my attention.

So she flew that far without breaking any bones?? Mans literally broke an arm tripping over boxes in the first season

THIS IS MY FIRST CLIP OF THIS EPISODE WTF MY JAW JUST DROPPED WHEN I SAW MATT

when he said "let's fulfill your destiny", i think he will make our timeline's eobard thawne convince his first timer younger self to what he has to become and his future and thus we might see the birth of the actual reverse flash.

When did flash get that strong when he shot lighting at her it was so powerful

Lighting and the phrase "Speed, unlimited speed" just haaaaaas to be a Palpatine reference (power, unlimited power)

1:35 KIRIN !

Theory: What if thawnes power went into the sky and affected the weather allowing it to access the negative speed force and gives meena her powers which is why she said her destiny is to the destroy the flash

Best episode of flash ive seen in years honestly it had everything, flashbacks, great characters and no stroppy bs barry just got on with it by himself. Story came together nice with the flashbacks too

3:17 bruh I was giggling 😂

bro really unlocked talk no jutsu

When you realize she just hit Barry with sasukes “kirin”

Oh no who ever saw this coming 🙄

Flash has to keep her running for 119 seconds…….flash proceeds to make her stop running😂

yeah the lines were a bit cringy but the action was cool. tho when barry thru the lightning i was like “noo ur an idiot” because i was afraid that would give meena a lot more power and would give her permanent speed

Wow este episodio no está mal le doy un 7

Wonderful

I'm kinda sad I stopped watching the show in season 6 (I got so bored I just stopped). This actually looks so fun

I have to say Mena is just as good as the comics. Brilliant! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Wait, if Mina could summon the negative speed force to cancel Flash's speed, why didn't Eobard do the same?

Man hit her with the talk no jutsu

The power of love ❤️ lmao

I’m getting real tired of watching villains get defeated by motivational speeches 🤦🏽‍♂️
