I think "happy" is the better word to describe your video not "good". Still great video its just people can easily misunderstand that saying the endings gonna suck. But you are absolutely right the show is definitely gonna end on a bitter note where the conflict of the series is over but there's alot of consequences and problems caused from it. Which Amazon will 100% take advantage for future spin offs to keep exploring the universe

WHO is sitting here saying that this show is gonna end happily??

you are confusing "good ending" with "happy ending"

If you expect a Happy End, you weren’t paying attention.

A-Train dies, Neuman dies, Ryan kills Homelander, Butcher goes crazy and is ultimately killed as well. The Boys ruin Vought's reputation and the company more or less collapses while Godolkin continues to operate individually to set up more Gen V. MM survives, Frenchie and/or Kimiko dies, Hughie and Starlight live happily ever after.

In the comics, Butcher does not kill Homelander. Black Noir does and then Butcher kills Noir

"O'mlanda. Put yer dyck u'wai, O'mlanda. Oi-m not ae'vin sekks with y'a roight na'uw, O'mlanda." - Butcher, Leaked season 5 script.

One option I can see is Sameer kind of going along with Butcher but instead somehow tweaks the virus to be airborne but also de-powers all supes instead of killing them. Obviously in this scenario Homelander would still likely die but maybe not who knows

Even if all the supes die, compound V still exists. More supes can be made if humans don't learn how awful they are.

Garreth ennis made sure we got a happy ending in the comics by making sure Hughie and Annie survived while everyone else died or went broke.. I hope the show follows this 2

At least we got bootleg spidey

theres one more season btw. the virus will be useless, homelanders son will see his father's horrible actions and kill him. homelanders son will become a hero stopping any supervillains with the boys (at least the ones that have superpowers and are alive) for the rest of time

A happy ending for Hughie and Starlight maybe, but everyone else in the comic, not so much...

Killing homelander (the God of the supes) sets an example to supes, it shows they’re not as invincible as they think, plus homelander’s crimes would be exposed to the public so everybody would see what a monster he was, and the people who would is still try to defend him would be a small minority who would be easily dealt with.

“Like Caesar” who was killed by his rumored son Brutus, sounds like Ryan does the deed

we dont always need to have a ''good'' sunshine and rainbows ending to be a good end to the show , AoT had a ''bad'' ending but it was amazing

Bro you people keep saying butcher killed homelander he ain't do shi but killed his clone nior right after fighting the actual homelander and after the military shot the guy a whole bunch which is pretty pathetic for butcher cuz he really never faught homelander in the comics

I think it will. I think Ryan will have the best ending, i feel he will be raised by Hughie and Annie. Those two will offer the stability and comfort Ryan needs. I do believe alot of the boys will die or leave. Billy and Homelander will start the end of the superhero nightmare. The virus might actually take away peoples powers rather than kill them, ending compound vs hold on the world.

The show still fire I think he and homelander will die or homelander dies and he becomes a villain or butcher becomes a villain because of the parasite

I wonder if Butcher will go down the same way his Comic book self did. With him bs Hughie

Yeah I can see a lot of the characters from the boys in the tv show like the comics not make it and unfortunately like the comic I can see Billy butcher become a villain which would be sad and depressing in my opinion but unfortunately in reality would make sense.

This show was never written to have a happy ending

Butcher doesn’t kill home lander in the comics…. Black Noir does. Turns out he was a clone of Homelander in the comics.

I don’t think it will be a sunshine and rainbows type endings but I think it will be more morally grey but I do think by the end homelander and butcher dead and vought destroyed

Honestly, as long as Homelander's gone, I will consider the show to have a "happy" ending

The was NO physical chance of the show's world getting a truly happy ending since it's very first episode.

Definetely hope for a good ending quality wise and Im EXPECTING a bad ending in actual terms, like a happy ending wouldnt just fit the show at all.

And yeah and even if war doesn't happen it gets released like hughie he already lost dad and he's at a breaking point so then he loses star light than French would loose kamiko

There might still be one possibility for a good ending, What if everyone rallies against homelander. He is starting to show that there's a hierarchy even in the superhero community. He could turn the community against him by trying to round up those with minor powers in these interment camps of his. That's the only way I see homelander. That's how i see things going down, with a bunch of superheroes who are attacking him at once

Starlight and Kimiko could hide in a bunker until the pandemic blows over or wear gas masks.

This reminds me of attack of titan where no matter the choice somebody is going suffer drastic consequences and tragedy

Ryan is Nero, Butcher is Dante, and Homelander is Vergil … I see where this is going…

I always looked at it that way; Joe Kessler/Butcher’s dark side IS comic-Butcher and only he could say “Daddy’s home” to Butcher and have him quiver in confusion and rage as did Hughie when Butcher said it to him in season 2.

-Or they make a virus that removes the powers of all Supes not born that with powers. -Butcher dies heroically. -Vought is exposed and taken down. -Turns out there is 7 born supes that will be actual heroes. -The heroes talk about their name, The Seven is tainted and MM (or Huey, or a throwback) spins around in a chair “How about The Boys?” But nah, it’ll be something shock value.

all thoughts of a "good ending" that i had in mind for this show were completely gone after watching szn 2 finale

Did you really expect a happy ending from this show? I sure didn’t. No offense. Keep up the good work. 😑

Possible death from most likely to less likely imo : - Butcher - Homelander - Ashley - The rest of vought (the deep, fake noir, firecracker, sister sage) - Kimiko - Frenchie (i rly think kimiko n frenchie will died together) - MM - Neuman - Ryan

My boi I’m pretty sure when homelander starts throwin ppl in camps and prisons they are not gone be on his side

I very honestly just want my boy Ryan to be happy 😭 Poor kid has been through too much.

At the end of the original series, ol’ Hugh and Annie were the last ones standing. I BET more than those two live, MM being one more I’ll bet makes it out of there. Heck, even from the Se7en, Mauve is seemingly written out as still alive when she was killed in the comics.

This made me appreciate season 4 a bit more. This season is ultimately about duality (ex: Starlight/Annie, Frenchie's guilt, Butcher's Kessler, A-Train's heroism, etc.). By the end they'll have to choose who they really are and it'll greatly impact the outcome of an eventual Civil War in season 5.

All of the people in The Boys are spiraling. Hughie is still grieving over his dad, Starlight is struggling to use her powers, Bucher is going insane and dying, M.M is skinnier and having panic attacks, Frenchie is in jail, Kimiko is clinging to Frenchie. They’re all looking real vulnerable right now.

I think Season 3 made this clear. I was rooting for Soldier Boy I’m ngl. I’m not entirely sure what the heck is happening with Butcher and Homelander, and the whole direction of the show, but i know shiz is gonna hit the fan soon.

One they I love the most about the boys is that you literally have no idea who’s gonna win unlike Marvel movies where the good guys always win in the end lol…

Some die horribly and some lives to wish they died instead. Something something character 2024

I would love to see Homelander losing his powers and having to deal with it

The child wasn't looking at A-Train in shock and surprise "because" he saved someone; to the public, the supes ALL save lives. They aren't aware that these supes are not really heroes and that the "saves" are staged. The boy was looking at A-Train in surprise at seeing a hero _in action_ RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM. Maybe even his FAVORITE hero. ...I feel like you completely misread this scene. 😕

Remember not every single story has a happy ending. This show has some parallels in current life. Is life ever really fair in the world? Not everyone comes out unscathed. The show will have a quality ending but majority will have to recover from a lot of damage whether physical damage, mental or otherwise and there will be a lot of funerals and a long journey to start over for surviving important characters

You never know. Maybe Soldier Boy cures everyone lmao

Homelander losses his power and billy kills him with one single punch 😂😂😂😂

Happy ending bro, the show is obviously gonna end well

Butcher didn't do horrible things and kill his friends with a smile on his face at the end of The Boys comics.

The ending will be done in a way to keep the world going for all the spin offs. The goal of The Boys is to get rid of Homelander. Whatever happens good or bad Homelander and Butcher won’t survive. Everything else is up in the air.

If there was a good ending, that would mean there's more to the story.

It's not over yet jesus

I think in season 5 all of the boys are gonna die. 1 of the seven every episode and 1 of the boys every episode. And it will end with the world ending

You forgot to mention the fact that dupes have family members and people who love them in some capacity

I honestly just wanna see Homelander thriumph over everything lol

Since Butcher has different supe power in Episode 08 (random hands are generated from chest and tearing Neuman apart like a deadpool) I think V takers in Season 05 will get very different powers and those will be the exact powers that will kill Homelander, or at least disable him not in a good way.

I’m kinda hoping Ryan becomes The Boys’ version of the ideal Superman. That would be a “Good” enough ending for me.

idk what's homelander supporters gonna do when they see the flight 337

1:17 my guy has a stroke.

With how nihilistic and cynical this show is. It will feel amazing if this show actually do a good ending

Starlight saving the girl from being assaulted in season 1 was a real, unscripted save. A-train was not the first one

Technically, it wouldn’t even be enough to get rid of all the supes, and all Compound V - but also of any record of how Compound V is made. And then, everyone who still knows who to make Compound V. Otherwise, Vought is just going to start again. 🙄

Excellent video, glad someone is trying to lessen the blow the ending is gonna bring.

Dude!! Check out the ending of the game InFamous 2, it's shaping up to go to a VERY similar place.

calling it now, the last episode will be called "sunshine and rainbows" or "over the rainbow"

I kinda hope the final shot of the show is an apocalyptic future scenario featuring soldier boy awakening and wandering through the wastes

Butcher didn't kill Homelander in The Boys comics, Black Noir killed Homelander in The Boys comics.

"If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention."

They should’ve made this a game instead of

i love that thumbnail

but it makes sence for the story

Just out of pure curiosity, do you think after everything that they’ve done with Frenchie in this season so far and what inevitably happens to him in the comics, if they went that route do you think the fans would be happy?

The comcs wasnt a happy ending and neither will the show, we will cry and hate it

I’d say, it’ll be a bitter sweet ending

There is no way a civil war would happen if all the supes die.

Good job pal very fun video but Here is the thing I think A third path to the ending would be Ryan they can convince him And show him that his father is An evil Man,and something else too,you talked about people going into rampage due to Homelander's death but that can be easily fixed by the flight 37 video They will show who he is to the world and then no one will be sorry for his loss.

Homelander dying from drinking milk would be such a Joffrey way for him to go out… 😂 That said, if Firecracker ends up being the cause of this, perhaps the fact that she hardly has any powers may make her more resistant to the virus than Homelander himself? That’s not how the virus has been set up thus far, though: The reasoning “it has to be even stronger to take out Homelander” implies a simple “more is more”, i.e., the more powerful the supe, the more powerful the virus has to be. In that case, Firecracker would be among the first to succumb to the virus. And conversely, by this logic, perhaps the only way for Starlight to survive the virus is to become even stronger than Homelander. If they go down that route, prepare for the writers turning their self-insert into a full-blown Mary Sue at the end. They kind of tried their best to prevent that impression in Season 4; Season 3 however had exactly that vibe going on at the end, with Hughie forgoing the “toxic” temporary V, and instead “elevating” Starlight and giving her “her time to shine”. And now that Starlight’s powers have not only come back at the end of Season 4, but grown even stronger (“They fly now?”; “They fly now”…), I’m not ruling out the chance that they’ll simply have Starlight girlboss Homelander to his demise in the end.

I dont know if im sure but I think that If the ending of the series would be when homelander finally gets killed and then there would be 2 films for butcher where in one he choose not to leave the control to the parasite sacrificing himself and another one when he choose to be evil.

Dude didn't see AOT

I feel like Homelander might outlive Firecracker differently. She briefly mentioned the side effects of her medicines increasing the size of her heart. You don't just drop a piece of info like that without some sort of narrative payoff later on. (That's how "Checkov's Gun" works.)

I expect the usual predicted deaths, homelander, butcher, deep, a-train, and edgar. I belive much like in the comics homelander will die near the end and the last two episodes will be dealing with butcher whos gone off the deep end, in this i expect the deaths of MM, Kimiko, and likely frenchie. For ryan i see 4 fates for him, killing homelander then dying of his injuries KINDA like comic noir, being depowered(by soldier boy somehow or the virus affecting him differently due to being a natural born supe)and growing up as a normal human, being killed by butcher, keeping his powers and growing to be one more akin to certain interpretations of batman(a genuinely good person but one who knows he's a nutjob, is very reclusive, and imposes rules upon himself to ensure he doesnt lose it). For hughie and annie i dont see either of them dying, though, much like ryan i could see her being depowered.

I’m quite literally expecting a watchmen ending where it just starts everything back the way it was

It's possible that the Supe Virus is the only thing that can actually cure Butcher: the cancer parasite likely absorbed all the V he stole from Frenchie. I do have a feeling though that he will choose not to use the Virus, and the parasite will allow him to kill Homelander once and for all - at the cost of his own life. The fated "fight to the death" that he and Homelander wanted. 💀

In the comics billy butcher don't kill homelander . Black noir kills homelander and butcher kills black noir

i think some people are gonna get out of it in better shape than others. they’re all gonna be fucked up but i think hughie and annie at least are gonna make it out mostly ok

I dont think Butcher will go full bad. I think they are playing into this whole "he has a heart" stuff. He still cares for Ryan and he sees Hughie as his little brother whom he already let down. I do think we'll get some sort of twisted happy ending with plenty of casualties, but also some redemtive arcs like they did with Queen Maeve. At least A train is def going in that direction.

Nice audio editing

I mean what if soldier boy came back

If Billy doesn't choose the virus route, the only actual good outcome of the show is Ryan standing up against homelander which would encourage the good supes to go against the bad ones. But tbh that would STILL end in way too many casualties. Though, if they want to continue the show that's the route they have to go. The most peaceful outcome for regular humans is the virus option. But tbh that would be boring, & I really doubt it would kill every one of them.

My hot take is that the virus will be modified to depower instead of kill. Homelander's identity hinges on the strength of his powers. Without them he just another scared confused man. Whether or not Butcher makes the sacrifice play to do so is up in the air.

I want this to end like a early 2000's teenie movie We see a-train, freeze frame, text: a train went to ucla to become a football player, he was later shot in a drive by in compton

Just realized, the new episode can be called, New Year New Me. As for Bill Butcher.

Every supe dying is what’s bad! The government wouldn’t have anything standing in their way to just expose Vought and all the supes. The airplane video I don’t think Ashley would cover it up after Homelander dies. There could still be a civil war but I think there’s a very low chance of that happening if they know what the supes have done. It’s more likely they’ll protest and argue and get into politics and stuff. It won’t be a good ending but I don’t think it’ll end in a civil war.

You do understand that is statement is 100% your OPINION it’s not an “objective” opinion and that those are two DIFFERENT things right

This is where soldier boy comes back and burns the V out of some sup.

Billy is gonna kill Ryan in season 5

The first time they disbanded it was because of Mallory and Lamplighter. I do not expect a feel good ending.
