About The Boys: THE BOYS is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods, abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It's the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about “The Seven,” and their formidable Vought backing.

I think Kimiko is speaking for all of us when she tells Frenchie how exhausting he is. It's like bro you have literally been hating yourself since Season 2, we get it.
Blame the writers for messy plot starts and that Sesh with that NPC (Colin) going no where
@@TheLivingThanosI think this was kind of part of the plan anyways we haven’t seen Colin in awhile
@@Power_hungry69 Just saying this....Bro was a Bigger NPC than that TikTok girl
@@TheLivingThanos true though
@@TheLivingThanos I have been enjoying the episodes a lot more since Colin became off screen
I hope that either at the end of this season or in season 5 that Kimiko will be able to forgive herself and finally be able to speak
@@lewishamilton.f1.44 She was singing in that musical episode lmaoo
i believe if she speaks it will be because that girl with scars will finally forgive her. she seems resentful of kimiko but might understand she didnt have a choice. theyve also focused on that girl during all her scenes.
I think her first words will be I love you to Frenchie
Kimiko’s regret over killing people doesn't make sense to me. Didn't she brutally execute some rando security guards in Season 3? If anything, Kimiko has always been the most sadistic compared to others in the group, and her pep talk on regret over killing feels really off.
@@ronblaze111 that musical is only her imagination, she doesn't actually sing
Karen is magical, she's like that little sister we all want to protect, while she'd protect us.
*little
Nah there's other things on my mind. This is just a character my dude.
*step sister
Was so scared they were gonna kill her off moments after this scene. I was fully saying out loud "if Kimiko dies I'm cancelling Prime right now"
She also voiced Haru in Pokémon Concierge which is weird because I never got to hear her speak in the boys
Say what you want about the writers, but actors and characters have great chemistry and keep as engaged in the show.
I think the CG team and actors are fantastic. But yeah, the writers have been beating a dead horse for a few years now and it's gone from an amazing show to a chore to watch.
@@user-ds8rj2vc4vthen stop bro seriously, less than half the fans who have been watching are now complaining because of the politics, just leave then bro. Me and other seasoned watchers who were watching back in season 1 before it blew up are still loving it. Season 3 was amazing. Season 4 is a set up for the craziness of season 5 that is coming. Leave if you don’t got the patience ov-hoe
Kimiko is honest to God my favourite character in the show. Her development from Season 1 is just crazy good. And the fact that Karen can convey so many intense emotions and garner so much sympathy without saying a SINGLE WORD is phenomenal
I am NOT forgiving y’all for almost killing her- I was about to start crying
If Kimiko died, I would’ve been so offended that I would’ve stopped watching the show
honestly it was hard to take the moment seriously because her dying there would not make sense narratively. Either she has plot armor for that scene or she dies and the show's writing is so bad its not worth watching. And since the writing has been competent up to this point, it kinda killed any tension for that scene and it ended up feeling like she wasnt in any danger.

Sometimes it really feels like that the writers don’t know what to do with Frenchie and Kimiko. Treading on their past which we’ve already done for multiple seasons.
I'm a monster!!
But I'm a monster too!!
*Flashback*
No moncour! I'm too much of a monster to love.
*Flashback*
The Shining Light Liberation Army human trafficking plot could've been way better executed if it were to tie in with the main plot
It kinda did in season 2, with Kimiko’s brothers
Maybe by season 5 we can have Kimiko finish them and Frenchie finish Nina. Close their story arcs in one go lol
Meh
It really feels like this whole season is just one big set up for the final season after this. There’s a whole lot of storylines going around but so little time has been spent on developing them for a proper payoff.
@@ritsurizer this show kinda fell off before it even got that good
Kimiko hates looking at the mirror so much, but she sure spends a lot of time putting on that smokey cat eye mascara, lmao
Yeah, they both have amazing hair for characters who are depressed, poor, and really too busy with life-and-death situations to be engaging in excellent haircare.
@@MarsM13 theres always times to look pretty
She’s speaking figuratively. When one has time for self reflection, that’s what happens….cause yeah every mirror looks mean “I hate you” -_-
Its the compound V side effects to look fabulous
Boys just don't get it. You can feel like shit and still make an effort to look pretty
It honestly got me curious this season. That is a serious mental block/trauma she has on her voice.
Even when she got her arm ripped off and her leg sawed off she didnt even scream.
Little misconception about Mutism. Even if someone cant physically talk they can still make sounds. Even if barely.
she also laughed at stormfront at the end of season 2
@@f3rnie this actually makes even more sense why she laughed at Stormfront yet didn't scream when her limbs got taken.
It's all trauma. Somehow her brain rewired everything so when she's in pain, she doesnt make a sound but laughs when something's funny.
@@furionmax7824she’s very used to pain we can see. Emotional and physical.
@@furionmax7824 This show is full of inconsistent writing, unfortunately.
@@snowblind9551 lol just like the comic. So it's comic accurate to the writing.
Speaking of which. I have just realized something.
Translucent may have known about Compound V the entire time. He's the only one in the seven that has a son. That son can also turn invisible. He's in Gen V.
So it's an inconsistency. Either he knew about V and shot his son up with some. Or he is actually the first natural born supe and not Ryan. But we never know.
That’s sad about what kimiko went through 😢😢😢😢she didn’t told his brother the whole truth
I hate when someone is in a dark place.
Like The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits put together.
Tek Knight will reveal the whole truth dw
And he’ll never know, ever…
@@adamH.1Tek Knight is dead
@Alrokako don't remind me..he was an amazing character 😭
shes searching for redemption, do as much good as she can so those girls didnt die for nothing.
This interaction works for the emotional stability in the change of Frenchy and Kimiko. And Kimiko, due to her traumas, did not make her forget to speak. But it affected him! And for Frenchy. It has not been easy due to so many deaths he left behind. This conversation gives a nice boost to their blossoming relationship.
Kimiko and Frenchie either end together or they don’t end up with anyone at all. Their connection is better than anyone else you can force into their story arcs.
Edit: W̶e̶ w̶o̶n̶ We’re screwed
Or dying together but this time not in Butcher's hand
@@hartantoanggoro Or they both survive. Truth is, anything can happen next season. We’re not certain with how many apparent changes the show has.
@@KahinAhmed72 with Noir 2 has a similar power like Homelander and A-Train would be executed by Homelander personally, I wouldn't even imagine if Kimiko and Frenchie would be having a proper happy ending since the series started to follow the Comic little by little.
This conversation absolutely needed to happen. Frenchie’s been drowning in this pool of guilt all the way back since S1 and I don’t think he ever truly realised how much Kimiko understands him and cares enough to help him overcome that pain until she flat out told him that he’s exhausting and she knows his trauma a lot more than he thinks.
I hope Kimiko can one day overcome her own trauma and forgive herself enough to actually speak again.
Man, i'll never tired seeing Kimiko's smiles. The actress really looks like a sweet person ❤
Kimiko is easily my favorite character out of the show. So kindhearted, mysterious and savage
Frenchy would have allowed himself to be hated in previous seasons. But now is a more stressful and dangerous time.
PHILIPPINES MENTIONED 🇵🇭🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It was also shown in s1
TANGINAMO LET'S GOOOO! Don't worry comment section tanginamo is I love you translated
Tang ina Philippine reference haha
@@ShoppingBored really? In what part?
@@vladimirpuddin3319 the rebel in this vscene
Kimiko is Best Wife that understands, even regrettable things.
Both need Therapy more than prison and in case of Frenchie , rehab too
Would've liked to see more of the liberation army
I am truly enamored with Kimiko. This is undeniably one of the most exceptional relationships on TV right now. Frenchie, I love you too.
Kimiko is one of my favorite character
thank u so much for uploading this bro my captions weren't working and it was driving me insane
Shit I feel in love with that chick just way her smile 😂
Who's here after hearing speak at the end of ep8?
I love Frenchie and Kimiko. I want the best for them
i like how filipinos pulled an uno reverse card on the japanese where instead of the rising sun its the shining light
✨⭐Shine light like a diamond⭐✨
Kimiko is gorgeous!
I met her at Comic Con. She's a total sweetheart
So her not talking is an emotional thing and not that she's mute. Man that's just traumatizing
I was surprised to hear Tagalog in The Boys of all things. Holy crap, I feel proud all of a sudden 🥳
Pilipinas!!🫵😃🇵🇭
Ikr so random lol
Wait, Kimiko’s Filipino?
But I thought she was Japanese, didn’t MM say she was from Japan to Firecracker earlier?
@@KahinAhmed72 No, Kimiko IS Japanese. It’s just that that training camp where she was stationed at and made to fight and kill the girls she was pitted against was located somewhere in the forested outreach of the Philippines. During that time she learned what people like that Filipino man communicated through context.
we hear tagalog in season 1 too theyve been revealed in the early episodes before before we even see kimiko
I love their conversations. In the midst of all the chaos that is the boys their convos are always gives me a moment to breathe lol. The eye of the storm.
i love this crazy season, it really dives down every single problem that somewhat involved with the past of each character in the show.
homelander got rid of his last humanity by going back to the lab that made him the monster; a-train's real desire to be a real hero; hughie facing his dad's death and his tragic backstory of being left with the absence of a mother; butcher's mental health just going worse, Moon Knight style; The guilt that Frenchie killed Colin's family in the past; Kimiko's face to face the Shining Light Liberation Army to take it down once and for all; ...etc
Overall, this season really captured alot of emotions that a person can have: anger, revengeful, sadness, guilt, craziness,...
And it really implies that not everyone is perfect, even for The Boys team
That just shows how dedicated and thoughtful, but also unhinged the show are. And that's what I love about this show.
Not gonna read all that bs. The writing in this show is garbage. Too much dialect. It fell off before it ever got that good.
@@shanefowler9443judging by your grammar and comment I can tell you are a cave man.
@@shanefowler9443so whats the point of commenting it?
Then dont read and keep scrolling down@@shanefowler9443
@@shanefowler9443yeah, you look like someone who has trouble reading. stay in your echo chamber little man.
Finally. An accurate representation of the Philippines
it was nice finally having that explanation.
She talked
moments with frenchie and kimiko are the best
idk why they went the route with colin n shit
Probably to figuratively edge the audience (AKA saving the pairing for the last season).
Amazon *LOVES* to edge their fans. First with the Invincible S2 release date, now *THIS.*
@@KahinAhmed72yeah, they especially love it when its in the car park of a buca di beppo
@@brycerodriguez244 haha, effin william butcher
I agree! These two have the best chemistry and the whole Colin subplot felts so out of left field and forced.
@@brycerodriguez244 Huh? I don’t get that joke.
So she CAN speak, she just won't. There's a difference
um, yeah, i think that's also what being a mute is??
What are both of you yapping about, mute people *cannot* speak, that's the definition of the word lol
She can't because of a psychological block, her vocal cords work fine.
@@Benisnaisu i dont think u can speak nicely after so much time
@@BenisnaisuNah, she can’t because of trauma. She’s gonna need speech therapy.
breaks my heart that the writers won't let them be together
Karen is simply incredible, she completely owned the character, completely.
I love these two so much
hope theres an entire episode about kimikos entire story. on the next season at least
This episode finally mending Frenchie and his relationship with Kimiko🙌wonderful shit
I love their relationship I wish it was more than just a friendship but it is what it is but when he came out it's certainly explained a lot
Why didn't these subtitles appear for me in the actual episode?
may have subtitles turned off, or those are exclusive to Prime for advert purposes.
those sub for Tagalog does not really say anything note worthy anyway
yeah sometimes i have subtitles and sometimes not. Always have to enable them when Kimiko "talks"
for some reason im not able to have the sub when they're talking together
thanks for uploading this scene, prime. The version I pirated didn’t have subtitles 👍
It's tragic, she's a victim of horrific abuse in a situation no child should be under. She's doing the best she can to be better, which Kimiko is!
Kimiko’s regret over killing people doesn't make sense to me. Didn't she brutally execute some rando security guards in Season 3? If anything, Kimiko has always been the most sadistic compared to others in the group, and her pep talk on regret over killing feels really off.
She doesn’t feel bad killing people as a whole, she’s traumatized after being FORCED to kill who knows how many girls at that camp. People who could have been her friends, who were the same age as her and trapped in the same horrible situation, all while she was a child. There’s a difference between that, and killing someone you don’t know as part of an operation as a trained and experienced adult.
@@a_n1441 and that precisely where the dissonance is. Like, of course Hitler values his friends and families more than the people the Nazis exterminated, that's a no brainer. But that means you're expecting audience to listen to someone who think people's lives have different worth. Especially with the fact the guards she murdered are innocents. That's a twisted morality.
@@a_n1441 meanwhile the WHOLE point of Frenchie's regret is killing people HE DOESN'T KNOW. innocents and criminals alike.
@@XaliberDeathlockdifferent people react to situations differently
One of the best f*d up couples in cinematic history. Their stories and love arc are really well told.
Average Tondo experience.
"Why are they dedicating so much time to these charcters that dont matter?" Its cause they dont really have much going for them in the main plot. Other than be funny, fight people(kimiko) or do chemist shit(frenchie). Its would be weird for them to just be outsiders with no real motivation
because they are team members of the boys?
Kimiko literally fucking carries “the boys” they rely on her power for everything.
don't forget they're a part of the main cast lmao
Fucking hate people that can't somehow enjoy side character development that doesn't have direct tie-ins to the plot. They're people too. Isn't it interesting to know more about their complexities rather than just setting up the big good vs bad fight?
Bro why did they have to make frenchie gay in this, him and kimiko would’ve made a great couple😭😭
EDIT READ THIS!!!
I just watched the last episode and I am so happy to see that they got together
I hope kimiko gets a happy ending
We need the backstory ASAP
Damn, that vow of silence hurts
Imagine something happened to her throat instead of that gruesome situation
Why is 90% of this season the characters sat crying about shit. It’s so depressing.
goodnight pun pun says hi
287 kilometers and then pun 3
They should have made these two a couple
They probably will next seaason
they are getting there though?
@@KirstSpotted-hy8pdthey share more of a familial love than relationship love
Nothing grosses me more than when a show made it clear that the female character wanted/saw a familial relationship (which is equally, if not more, interesting) but due to fan pressure and shipping, they change it to romantic. Just overdone, so hopefully not because they work just as great platonically.
I'd rather not see that.
The one issue I have with this scene: You can't actually see half of the signs that Kimiko makes. I want to see the language, not just read it in text form.
Ironically, considering what happens later.... No! Not the right thing to do.
I love Kimiko
I love these too so much that I am terrified
For the longest time I just assumed Kimiko couldn’t speak because she got her vocal chords snipped or something, but finding out that it’s actually all because of trauma is really interesting
In the earlier parts of the season, Kimiko agrees when Frenchie says they obviously can’t be together. Why so?
Can you upload the scene where sameer injects the virus in her and Frenchie Saves her please?
why?
@@MsJooycuz bro wants to watch it?

Not all of us have prime m8. I'm just surfing through clips
@@dominicochoa9925 wth is prime? i yonked the whole season on 1337
Frenchie is like riding fhe same Rollercoaster ride ten times in a row
It gets dull after a while, the only part that hits me deeply about his story is him involving lamplighter
Eyo She's Filipino? My heritage is getting popular. Mabuhay Pilipinas!
Shes not filipino but the organization that kidnaps her and her brother was filipinos
Nope, she's Japanese. The people that trained and kidnapped her however probably are because they can speak Tagalog. I was shocked to hear someone speak Tagalog but they also did in season 1. Like mm asking for directions in Tagalog. Anyway, mabuhay ang Pilipinas.
So Shining Light is founded by Filipinos?
@@GneissAlucard I don't think so, since kimiko is Japanese, I think it's Founded by multiple Asians. I'll be lying if I said that this scene didn't piss me off a bit. It made us Filipinos look like oppressors. When I'm actual history since 1521 we were opressed by multiple countries from Spain to America to Japan and now China claiming the Philippine sea.
Karen is freaking gorgeous and badass. I hope she lives forever in the show.
Holy fuck kimiko is Filipino????? Was such a surprise when it cut to her flashback and i understood the words.
My father used to hit me until I stopped crying. "I'll give you something to cry about." I got beat up once at a concert. 6 guys jumped me. They kicked in my face. I didn't make a sound.
Franchie should have hit this baddie aince s2 😂 but he chose alternatively
He made a move on her in an earlier season, bro tried to kiss her and she slapped him.
They kissed in season 3 and both said it was weird and didn't feel right

she finally spoke today 7/18/24 for the final episode of season 4
Was the reason she couldn't speak not revealed in S3? It was the Compound V in her blood that stopped her from speaking, right?
kimiko could always speak but the emotional trauma she received from shining light stopped that it was nothing to do with compound v
@Prime Video, @Amazon please have a limited series for the backstory of Kimiko and those Filipinos / Shining Light Liberation Army.
there's a lot of stories to tell more I think :)
damn jose rizal for abusing kimiko
Doesn't make sense to judge yourself for your past when you know you'd never do those things again today or in the future
what if they don't know though
I don't know why Eden Hazard retired at 32 just to join The Boys.
"How can we possibly forgive ourselves?"
Therapy? Just go into therapy? There are people trained to solve exactly THAT.
Why therapists never exist in fiction, aside from harmful ones, like the one that raised Homelander, or that piece of trash from Falcon and Winter Soldier?
As a Filipino, I appreciate the portrayal of a villainous (if VERY minor) Filipino faction. If the country should be more commonly depicted in media, being done so in both sides of the morality spectrum is a good start.
Too bad the idea is saddled with an arc that’s been dragging on for too long.
Aight man I love Kimiko and Frenchie but less Burning Star arc or something
Bruh there's no way you didn't look at Shining Light and think "what would be the discount equivalent of this" before commenting 💀
Honestly stopped playing attention to this storyline since the start of the season could’ve been so good too 😬 check off them boxes tho 👀
They made it clear in season 3 that these 2 aren't romantic or sexual with each other at all. They kissed and said it didn't feel right, they're more of a sibling relationship
They better not take this ship away from us
That "Tagalog" accent is absolutely vile lmao, the actor is ethnically Filipino but is raised in Canada, why are they forcing him to speak a language he's clearly incapable of💀
They probably couldn't find or get any other filipino's to do the work
SHES CUTE
Adter what the captive scientist did she definitely wont be walking anytime soon. Let alone saying anything.
The whole subplot with Frenchie is my least favorite part of this series.
top 10 things that didnt age well
all Filipinos been shock in this episodes hahahahah

[it’s not kimico that died😭
Would these 2 just get together already?
The boys video game when.
I don't know. How to you say "silent Asian woman trope" in ASL?
So this is where Eden Hazard is doing after the retirement.😂😂
If you're a guy and a girl calls you moody then you really need therapy
Karen is such a baddie.
Wait she stopped speaking because she was forced to stay silent and when she started to speak she couldn't is that even possible?🤔
