@@tiahansere53 how is Goku a bad dad? The worst thing he did was make Gohan fight Cell. Him staying dead for 7 years was in an attempt to protect the Earth from people looking to fight him (which worked). What Omniman just did is WAYYY worse
That was the most ruthless shit I've ever seen on screen. "So you want to save people, huh? Let's try this..." Like that's worse than Green Goblin tossing Gwen Stacy off the GWB.
The show is a lot better than the comic book with showing Nolan’s regret and him trying to convince himself what he’s doing is right. 100% hype for the rest of the comic being adapted.
Not only that he HAS to do it. If 2 viltrimites come to check on the planet and see it is not conquered and they had some resistance THEY WILL KILL OMNI MAN AND WIPE THE PLANET OF HUMANS! Not only that, if they do possibly agree. Since Invincible is a freking viltrimite, HE WILL HAVE TO TAKE AN INITIATION TEST! (I am guessing) NO VILTRIMITE WILL HOLD THEIR PUNCHES BACK. ONLY OMNI MAN DID!
Mark saying "I'll still have you" always hits me in the feels, it even broke a ruthless and loyal warrior to the point he just left his mission crying.
That was the final nail in the coffin. Nolan was already affected by his time on earth. All those horrible words he spoke were simply him trying to convince himself. He kept trying to suppress his emotions to fulfill the mission. It's a lot like Zuko acting like a jerk and lying to himself on purpose to justify his own mission.
This is so true. Arrogance is very hard to overcome. Nolan was humbled in this moment. I would love to see Nolan come back to this planet to protect it, knowing it was here where he learned an incredible lesson. That is, if he learned his lesson
@Pristine Artifact Tbh given what that one dude Mark talks to in space about how relentless Viltrumites are I can narrow down that Nolan is the next nicest dude lol
@@dearthofdoohickeys4703 That's the whole reason why his name is Invincible. It isn't his strength, but rather his will. No matter how many times he is beaten to pulp, he never stops.
"What will you have after 500 years" "You Dad" that scene brought me to fucking tears they nailed it with a perfect fucking 10/10 episode to end it off
I wonder if the reason why Omni wasn't that thrilled about Mark getting his powers at first was because actually has gotten attached to his life on earth.
Mark after this episode: I’m never gonna -financially- mentally recover from this. But in all seriousness I cannot imagine what he’s going through right now. I’m traumatized and I’m just a viewer.
Omni-Man is legit my favourite character. He's been indoctrinated into this fucked up "Viltrumite master race" philosophy, literally for thousands of years. 20 years on Earth is like a small blip in his lifespan but he still ended up caring enough to basically betray his homeworld. I'M NOT SAYING HE'S A GOOD GUY. He's totally fucking evil at this point still, but I find what's going on in his head really interesting. Like he's being deprogrammed from a fucked up indoctrination. When he's screaming at Mark about how everyone he loves will be gone and Mark will still be here, he's expressing his own insecurities about it. He loves Debbie and doesn't want her to die. He loves Art too. He doesn't want to care about them because he doesn't want it to hurt when they die. He doesn't want to care. His whole insane massacre is just him saying "Why the fuck should I care about anyone on Earth? Look at how fragile they are!" Like this dude is seriously afraid of love at this point.
Well said. One of the recurring horror themes in the show is how fucked up things can get when you leave the regular human's perspective of time relative to their lifespan, and Omni Man's betrayal is a great example of that concept. When you have the perspective of a person that has already lived for a thousand years and will continue living for thousands more, you will naturally develop a vastly different set of values compared to a person who will die before a single century passes. Mark responding to his father with love despite being shown hatred and contempt is such a powerful moment. Considering how the comics go, I'm not sure how they'll adapt future arcs given how fucking brutal the subway scene is. It's hard to see Omni Man as anything other than a villain or a threat that NEEDS to be put down after that display of destruction
I don't buy Omni-man's excuses about lifespan. Like OP said, I think all that stuff is just him trying to manage his own cognitive dissonance. Per the flashback, Viltrumites are expected to be OK with brutal, deadly violence even against each other. How does lifespan explain that? The real explanation for all this is: they have a disgusting fascistic eugenicist ideology and Omni-man is a career soldier in a brutal imperialist military.
@@Morilore ahh yes your to stupid know how brains work why did you waste a paragraph just to say that? Ommiman really did nothing wrong if you use your brain to figure out whats really happening he was sent to remove stingers from a bee hive/ant hill and he dosent care if some die in the process (humans are the ants/bees)
The "You dad. I'd still have you" Hit so hard in the comics, and even more now that it's animated. That line so important because we see how much Mark really does care about his father, and how much his father really does care for him. Edit: Beware the replies, someone named B B spoiled.
@@TheBiggestMoronYouKnow Viltrumites at their core have Darwinism drilled into their souls. It's a way of life. That's all Nolan knew. But he knew deep down he loved Debbie and Mark. So he left
He is not Invincible physically, he is unbroken mentally. He will stay true to himself no matter how many punches, kicks, bruises, broken bones, blood lost, scars, inner bleeding, the whole package. He won't give up.
Its just to further emphasize the message that people don't pay attention to super heroes and see them as higher beings without considering they could be people.
7:52 Imagine already developing a complex about not being able to save people then having the first thing you hear after a family dies is "That was your fault."
Funny thing is that Omni-Man is voiced by Tenzin and Mark is Avatar Wan's voice. There is also Azula voicing Shrinking Ray and Monster Girl. And Ozai voicing Art the Tailor
I think my man Lupasan was for real traumatized by this episode. After the subway massacre, he just kinda sat there quietly. It looked like episode 8 just drained his soul.
This episode just goes to show Omni-man felt more love in 17 years than probably for most of his life span. That’s why he was able to actually feel something after seeing what he did to his son. If Omni-man is considered weak for having these feelings tho, I wonder what the other Viltrumites are like, who haven’t experienced affection.
Conquest would piss a hole straight through you, and be irritated enough to kill everything you know just because your dead flapping body caused a splashback onto his shoes.
It honestly makes sense calling his mom a pet. It sounds messed up, it IS messed up, but that doesnt mean he doesn't or didn't love her. But when she has not even 1% of his life span, it means that her entire relationship is merely a fleeting moment in the span of his life and the romantic relationship is trivial in the grand scheme of things.
I think a better line would have been for him to refer to her as a "temporary pastime" or "finite interest" or something similar. She had more value than just a pet - in the most degrading, base sense in his point of view, she gave him a son. That's beyond a pet's worth. I think the writter overstretched Omni Man's ruthlessness. His time on Earth gave him a little more humanity than only thinking of her as a pet or insect or animal. I can understand him referring to every other human like that, but not to her specifically as that. But I'm just nit picking this one thing since you mentioned it. The writter/writters did phenomenal. This show was great and I want to start on the comics now.
I mean yea I get it. Any good dog owner will love their dog with all their heart but at the end of the day they’re only around for 10-15 years at most while we live for 80.
@@blobbie9583 I think, the point of all the extreme violence nonchalantly inflicted by Omni-man was to show how fickle and weak humans are compared to his race, like ants are to us. His frame of reference is just not human, it’s far beyond human capabilities and comprehension (which is why repeatedly says that no one would understand). But, the issue with Omni-man referring to her as a pet is that he doesn’t savour the good times, short as they may be; I think he did once, pre-powered Mark times. Seems that he took the egotistical big picture view now, because he realised his duty as a V.
But also one of the strongest, not anywhere close to THE strongest but one of the strongest. At least I’m pretty sure I get all of my information from TH-cam videos
@@bestpiss He would be... Top three I think. Maybe four. So yeah... And I think his "softness" is what allowed him to grow that strong, kinda like Mark.
Best part of this episode: the subtle parallel between Mark and his father when Mark asks for pizza, the exact action that made Omniman seem inhuman after the funeral earlier in the series.
I caught that as well while I was watching. It almost hints at Mark becoming cold like his father one day. After all, they do have very long lifespans.
@@NevTheDeranged I would say the comic did a better job of making characters pain last and influence future decisions. The show is just action packed and moves so fast.
@@jacobhayes8324 yeah they don't really have time to fit in all the subtle nuances in this tightened up timeline. But that gives fans of the show a reason to read the comics, right?
@@NevTheDeranged I think they could have progressed the story with the lingering effect of what just happened. The show definitely moves on much faster. Whereas the comic progresses but there is still some type of trauma that lingers
Same, I started crying when Omni-man started cheering for Mark in the flashback I just started crying even harder when Mark said that. It broke my heart into a million pieces. I even cried rewatching it.
"Your mom is more like a pet to me" Yeah, a pet you get incredibly close to and still feel horrible about for days/weeks when it dies even though you know you'll outlive it
So, honestly; yeah she's a lot like a pet to him. What people (including Nolan himself) fail to realize is you can get really attached to pets that you'll know you'll outlive.
It way years ago since my last dog died and i still cant get ower ewery last one i had i cant stand to have one agein because they alweys die or some thing tragic alweys hapens
“I feel like i live in a world made of cardboard, always taking constant care not to break something, to break someone . Never allowing myself to lose control . Even for a moment or someone could die.” -Superman
It shocked me, but it didn't show on my face. Attack on Titan made me hardcore when it comes to scenes like this. So uh I guess I'm at least a half-viltrumite.
I like Mark so much because he reminds me of spiderman. No matter how hard things get, a hero is there to keep trying. Mark isn't as strong as omni-man, but he has more heart than any other hero.
Woah, this guy fought a full blown viltrumite and lived? I don't know about you, but I'm starting to think that Mark Grayson may in fact, without a doubt, be ~𝐈𝐍𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐄~
@@jasonandrews1770 lol its an animated tv show based on one of the best comics, I personally loved it, had the biggest grin on my face during that scene.
Sometimes, I need to be by myself to cry. If I go off on my own to do it, when others have come over, it can hamper my ability to get everything out I need to. When my parents died during covid, my family and friends wanted to be around me a lot, but sometimes I just took a drive and cried somewhere far away to be alone.
If you're Mark, there ain't no way you feel like you're able to do that. As someone who's been in that exact situation, you never feel like you're up for something like that when you're going through something else too.
@@RichardStrong86 they're virtually immortal. I'm 99 percent sure after reading the comics that a viltrumites true lifespan is unknown. Because I don't think one has ever died of old age.

He just reverts to a spoiled child every time. He can never handle the truth and even shows in the last episode when he complains about Cecil letting his mom hear the truth.

Yo, when he said everything would be okay if she trusted him. He was expecting the Viltrum empire to show up and he would be like " This is my pet Deborah, she's okay."
The comic is a modern masterpiece in superhero story telling. Usually in many superhero tales the hero steps up after a family member dies. Kirkman instead flipped it and made that family member a villain.
Many family members were villains Like superman his uncle was a villain Xavier brother was a villain Gi Joe cobra and storm Starfire and her sister Goku and raditz Luke and Vader Thanos gamora Shang chi and his father Loki and Thor
@@truffle6082 I know that. I'm saying that he flipped the troupe of having the protagonist family member die as a means to become a hero to instead have that source of inspiration be a villain.
@@doublestarships646 Oh I misinterpreted what you said like how everyone her family dies then they be a hero. In this they became a hero because they family turned into a villain.
Ya’ll need to realize Nolan is THOUSANDS of years old when you’re that old and deep rooted in tradition that’s all you know coming from an African household I can’t imagine how bad my dad would be that wise if he was thousands of years old
You know... this episode makes me appreciate goku just a little more. When stuff's about to go down, he's the first to say "Let's get as far away from people as possible."
Yeah but the villian agrees. If perfect cell didn’t have that pride and honor with fighting a one v one tournament style in the middle of no where, humanity would’ve been fucked.
@@butterflymage5623 this is why King Piccolo is a more terrifying villain IMO. Perfect Cell, sure, he's threatening to end the world. But KP, we saw what happened with him in control for just a few weeks at most iirc. Namekians already live a long time, and he put his body back in it's prime. So his tyranny would have gone on for maybe even centuries.
The thing that I love about Invincible is that while it has a lot of gore its never done just for the sake of having gore or for gross out humour. Every time its used its done to leave an impact, whether it was the ending of episode 1, Mark getting beaten up by Battle Beast or this entire episode. A lot of shows don't show blood to keep it kid friendly but Invincible doesn't shy away from it and shows the messy side of a world with superheroes. The heroes don't always win, they don't always come out unscathed and rarely are there zero casualties.
oh yeah for sure. that’s probably why everytime gruesome scenes happen my mouth is left wide open, i’m just so shocked. i grew up watching hero shows where they don’t always show a lot of blood, or the hero does get hurt but is fine. that’s probably another reason why i was even more shocked going into this show. i don’t know what i was expecting but it wasn’t this. i am not disappointed in the slightest tho LMAO
Yep, the ole' existential horror of finding out someone in your family, someone you love is into something so terrible, you can forget having a normal, loving family EVER, EVER again. The first tears Mark shed when Nolan admitted he was not being controlled and it was "all me" really hurt. Didn't expect that.
You know, I'm pretty immune to most of the suffering I see in media. I've been watching anime for years, I've seen people torn to pieces, families destroyed... people put through shit you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy... and it just does not bother me the same way as it used to. It all sort of... blends. Heck, during Omni-Man's speech about the fragility and pointlessness of humanity... I kinda saw where he was coming from. That sounds awful, and yeah it kinda is, but I've been dealing with depression for years now which comes back from time to time, so yeah I can definitely identify with seeing life itself as kinda pointless. There was a time not so long ago where that was a given for me. But this show... seeing Mark go through all that to save the airman only to have his head crushed right before his eyes, seeing the father get an icecream for his little girl only for her to be left fatherless. So much pain and fear and regret as what basically amounts to a natural disaster rolls through our regular ass modern lives, ending them in an instant. And what would have happened if they'd have lived another 50 years? More ice-creams? More flights in the jet? More days on the subway? I myself have struggled constantly with what the freaking POINT of life is besides having enough food to eat, water to drink and a roof above my head. This episode broke my heart, and that's not something a show can really... DO to me anymore. I felt awful watching those people die, watching their happiness and hopes crushed right before Mark's eyes with every single death a reminder that he ISN'T from earth. His father has literally thrown him through a planet at this point, and he WILL NOT DIE. He will outlive every single person on earth, and by the time he dies all of their lives will have ended a hundred times over. It might sound weird considering all that crap I've just spouted, but this episode actually reminded me of how stupid that view on life actually is, and it was Mark who reminded me of it. Mark himself has being struggling with the 'meaning' of being a Super-Hero from square one, the 'why' of the job. Is he doing it to impress his Dad, to live out his fantasy of being like him? But the more he does it, the more suffering and death he sees on a daily basis and he comes face to face again and again with the fragility of the happiness, hopes and lives of mankind. Every time he gets stronger and manages to help people, he's always faced with the people he couldn't, or the people he's letting down by trying and failing. This episode, Mark never stopped trying to save people, and I love the fact that even AFTER everything he did to help people... he still hadn't found his 'reason' by the end. Because what reason is needed to save a crying child, to see someone in pain, terrified for their lives and lend them a hand? Mark doesn't even hesitate for a MOMENT to help those people, and despite all that edgy bullshit I just said, even knowing that Omni-Man wasn't going to let Mark save ANYONE that day, I still felt so... relieved as Mark kept fighting to save people around him. Sure, life can suck sometimes and it's often unfair and can ultimately SEEM pointless... but it ISN'T. Debbie's speech really hit me in my heart, because isn't that what we all felt watching Mark struggle to save people from his father? He's not as old as Omni-Man, he didn't live through the purge of Viltrum and wasn't brought up in a society where mere survival by strength was the only goal and purpose of living; he still SEES the value of life, no matter how short and no matter how purposeless it can seem from the outside. The use of a sport to demonstrate this was perfect, because sports are literally just made up contests we have with each other for the sake of fun. Nobody's going to live or die, but that doesn't mean it doesn't matter. And when you see the pure joy on Mark's face when he hits that home-run, struggles base to base and finally rounds them up... well, as someone who somehow identified with the perspective of a mass murdering lunatic, seeing Omni-Man become Nolan and cheer for his son... it reminded me that there really doesn't NEED to be a point. I don't need a reason to want to be happy, to want to help those around me be happy too and to live my life the way I want to live it. I don't need to question if what I want means anything, or wonder if it'll have any weight a hundred years after I'm dead. I'm ALIVE, the world is a freaking incredible place filled with incredible sights and experiences, and I'm done wasting it lamenting the things I can't change and are ironically far more pointless than the simple human joys I'd been questioning before. Because that more than anything really IS pointless.
Hey there bro. I hope all is well from now on. It's understandable, we all go through rough times sometimes. A little helpful tip, have you tried to find the purpose of life? I advise you to check out the Qur'an and Islam. May Allah SWT guide you. Best of luck.
Great comment man. I also think life is meaningless but that should set you free in a sense. Nothing you or anybody else do is going to have an impact on the "grand scheme" so you might as well stop stressing about it and just try to have as much fun as you can while you can. Invincible is some good shit. I can't wait to see what they do with season 2
Steve Yeun is great in this. Mark feels like a real teenager reacting to all this like a real teenager would from the crying, to the swearing, the heartbreak, and the trying to process it all even with a smile at the end. This is some great stuff.
The way Mark says “It’s not too late” so emotionally just for Omni Man to say, in the coldest most deadpan voice imaginable, “Yes it is” is fucking hilarious to me
“What will you have after 500 years” might be one of my new favorite quotes. I Totally binged the whole Invincible comic run in like 3 days, it was really dope. Hope they take their time and keep up the quality.
Agreed i havent read the comics fully but i whatched a video series that sumed all the major plot points up, and its got me exited both for the rest of this show and to read the comics
@Joe Dirt i never said that, but it gave me major Vegeta vibes cause he always does it, with an angry face just as Omni-Man was doing. I know Piccolo has done it a couple of times & all the mother cliches in movies & shows.
I’m low key kind of scared now of villains in the real world. This nigga held Mark in front of a train and forced him to watch at least 300+ people get shredded from the pure SPEED of the impact of the train.
An absolute blood bath of a finale and I loved every second of it. This show is a masterpiece. It'll only get better and better, the comics are insane.
“She was more like a pet to me.” Funny that. Because pets mean a whole lot to people. In fact, it takes a ton of heart to have a close companion like that and knowing that you’ll outlive them. But of course, Nolan was trying to prove a point that even *he* didn’t believe.

Yup think about it why did he wait so long to kill the guardians he didnt even think to kill them til after mark got his powers
We should all thank Debbie for changing his life
His plan was probably to take over after Debbie died of old age but Mark getting his powers meant it was time.

I'm literally shaking. Yikes, sweaty. Where's the nintendo switch? I need a few hours on my lego star wars game to destress.
Omni-Man is legit my favourite character. He's been indoctrinated into this fucked up "Viltrumite master race" philosophy, literally for thousands of years. 20 years on Earth is like a small blip in his lifespan but he still ended up caring enough to basically betray his homeworld. I'M NOT SAYING HE'S A GOOD GUY. He's totally fucking evil at this point still, but I find what's going on in his head really interesting. Like he's being deprogrammed from a fucked up indoctrination. When he's screaming at Mark about how everyone he loves will be gone and Mark will still be here, he's expressing his own insecurities about it. He loves Debbie and doesn't want her to die. He loves Art too. He doesn't want to care about them because he doesn't want it to hurt when they die. He doesn't want to care. His whole insane massacre is just him saying "Why the fuck should I care about anyone on Earth? Look at how fragile they are!" Like this dude is seriously afraid of love at this point.
I mean he's kinda not wrong when you see it from his perspective tbh
If anything,I think he's Lawful Evil. He's evil, but he's following the laws and rules set by his homeworks and race.
Well said. One of the recurring horror themes in the show is how fucked up things can get when you leave the regular human's perspective of time relative to their lifespan, and Omni Man's betrayal is a great example of that concept. When you have the perspective of a person that has already lived for a thousand years and will continue living for thousands more, you will naturally develop a vastly different set of values compared to a person who will die before a single century passes.
Mark responding to his father with love despite being shown hatred and contempt is such a powerful moment. Considering how the comics go, I'm not sure how they'll adapt future arcs given how fucking brutal the subway scene is. It's hard to see Omni Man as anything other than a villain or a threat that NEEDS to be put down after that display of destruction
I don't buy Omni-man's excuses about lifespan. Like OP said, I think all that stuff is just him trying to manage his own cognitive dissonance. Per the flashback, Viltrumites are expected to be OK with brutal, deadly violence even against each other. How does lifespan explain that? The real explanation for all this is: they have a disgusting fascistic eugenicist ideology and Omni-man is a career soldier in a brutal imperialist military.
@@Morilore ahh yes your to stupid know how brains work why did you waste a paragraph just to say that?

7:52 Imagine already developing a complex about not being able to save people then having the first thing you hear after a family dies is "That was your fault."

It's a show, he's a construct
This episode just goes to show Omni-man felt more love in 17 years than probably for most of his life span. That’s why he was able to actually feel something after seeing what he did to his son. If Omni-man is considered weak for having these feelings tho, I wonder what the other Viltrumites are like, who haven’t experienced affection.
Ummm it’s bad ...I’ll just leave it at that
HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
Thragg will literaly obliterate everything out
Most of the Viltrumites are just rapists and sexists
Conquest would piss a hole straight through you, and be irritated enough to kill everything you know just because your dead flapping body caused a splashback onto his shoes.
It honestly makes sense calling his mom a pet. It sounds messed up, it IS messed up, but that doesnt mean he doesn't or didn't love her. But when she has not even 1% of his life span, it means that her entire relationship is merely a fleeting moment in the span of his life and the romantic relationship is trivial in the grand scheme of things.
I think a better line would have been for him to refer to her as a "temporary pastime" or "finite interest" or something similar. She had more value than just a pet - in the most degrading, base sense in his point of view, she gave him a son. That's beyond a pet's worth.
I think the writter overstretched Omni Man's ruthlessness. His time on Earth gave him a little more humanity than only thinking of her as a pet or insect or animal. I can understand him referring to every other human like that, but not to her specifically as that. But I'm just nit picking this one thing since you mentioned it. The writter/writters did phenomenal. This show was great and I want to start on the comics now.
I mean yea I get it. Any good dog owner will love their dog with all their heart but at the end of the day they’re only around for 10-15 years at most while we live for 80.
@@blobbie9583 I think, the point of all the extreme violence nonchalantly inflicted by Omni-man was to show how fickle and weak humans are compared to his race, like ants are to us. His frame of reference is just not human, it’s far beyond human capabilities and comprehension (which is why repeatedly says that no one would understand). But, the issue with Omni-man referring to her as a pet is that he doesn’t savour the good times, short as they may be; I think he did once, pre-powered Mark times. Seems that he took the egotistical big picture view now, because he realised his duty as a V.
And he isnt wrong either. To him, us humans are what animals are to us.

Perfect Cell, sure, he's threatening to end the world. But KP, we saw what happened with him in control for just a few weeks at most iirc. Namekians already live a long time, and he put his body back in it's prime. So his tyranny would have gone on for maybe even centuries.
The thing that I love about Invincible is that while it has a lot of gore its never done just for the sake of having gore or for gross out humour. Every time its used its done to leave an impact, whether it was the ending of episode 1, Mark getting beaten up by Battle Beast or this entire episode. A lot of shows don't show blood to keep it kid friendly but Invincible doesn't shy away from it and shows the messy side of a world with superheroes. The heroes don't always win, they don't always come out unscathed and rarely are there zero casualties.
oh yeah for sure. that’s probably why everytime gruesome scenes happen my mouth is left wide open, i’m just so shocked. i grew up watching hero shows where they don’t always show a lot of blood, or the hero does get hurt but is fine. that’s probably another reason why i was even more shocked going into this show. i don’t know what i was expecting but it wasn’t this. i am not disappointed in the slightest tho LMAO

Bro those cracks in Marks voice had me....
Yep, the ole' existential horror of finding out someone in your family, someone you love is into something so terrible, you can forget having a normal, loving family EVER, EVER again. The first tears Mark shed when Nolan admitted he was not being controlled and it was "all me" really hurt. Didn't expect that.
You know, I'm pretty immune to most of the suffering I see in media. I've been watching anime for years, I've seen people torn to pieces, families destroyed... people put through shit you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy... and it just does not bother me the same way as it used to. It all sort of... blends. Heck, during Omni-Man's speech about the fragility and pointlessness of humanity... I kinda saw where he was coming from. That sounds awful, and yeah it kinda is, but I've been dealing with depression for years now which comes back from time to time, so yeah I can definitely identify with seeing life itself as kinda pointless. There was a time not so long ago where that was a given for me.
But this show... seeing Mark go through all that to save the airman only to have his head crushed right before his eyes, seeing the father get an icecream for his little girl only for her to be left fatherless. So much pain and fear and regret as what basically amounts to a natural disaster rolls through our regular ass modern lives, ending them in an instant. And what would have happened if they'd have lived another 50 years? More ice-creams? More flights in the jet? More days on the subway? I myself have struggled constantly with what the freaking POINT of life is besides having enough food to eat, water to drink and a roof above my head.
This episode broke my heart, and that's not something a show can really... DO to me anymore. I felt awful watching those people die, watching their happiness and hopes crushed right before Mark's eyes with every single death a reminder that he ISN'T from earth. His father has literally thrown him through a planet at this point, and he WILL NOT DIE. He will outlive every single person on earth, and by the time he dies all of their lives will have ended a hundred times over.
It might sound weird considering all that crap I've just spouted, but this episode actually reminded me of how stupid that view on life actually is, and it was Mark who reminded me of it. Mark himself has being struggling with the 'meaning' of being a Super-Hero from square one, the 'why' of the job. Is he doing it to impress his Dad, to live out his fantasy of being like him? But the more he does it, the more suffering and death he sees on a daily basis and he comes face to face again and again with the fragility of the happiness, hopes and lives of mankind. Every time he gets stronger and manages to help people, he's always faced with the people he couldn't, or the people he's letting down by trying and failing.
This episode, Mark never stopped trying to save people, and I love the fact that even AFTER everything he did to help people... he still hadn't found his 'reason' by the end. Because what reason is needed to save a crying child, to see someone in pain, terrified for their lives and lend them a hand? Mark doesn't even hesitate for a MOMENT to help those people, and despite all that edgy bullshit I just said, even knowing that Omni-Man wasn't going to let Mark save ANYONE that day, I still felt so... relieved as Mark kept fighting to save people around him.
Sure, life can suck sometimes and it's often unfair and can ultimately SEEM pointless... but it ISN'T. Debbie's speech really hit me in my heart, because isn't that what we all felt watching Mark struggle to save people from his father? He's not as old as Omni-Man, he didn't live through the purge of Viltrum and wasn't brought up in a society where mere survival by strength was the only goal and purpose of living; he still SEES the value of life, no matter how short and no matter how purposeless it can seem from the outside. The use of a sport to demonstrate this was perfect, because sports are literally just made up contests we have with each other for the sake of fun. Nobody's going to live or die, but that doesn't mean it doesn't matter. And when you see the pure joy on Mark's face when he hits that home-run, struggles base to base and finally rounds them up... well, as someone who somehow identified with the perspective of a mass murdering lunatic, seeing Omni-Man become Nolan and cheer for his son... it reminded me that there really doesn't NEED to be a point.
I don't need a reason to want to be happy, to want to help those around me be happy too and to live my life the way I want to live it. I don't need to question if what I want means anything, or wonder if it'll have any weight a hundred years after I'm dead.
I'm ALIVE, the world is a freaking incredible place filled with incredible sights and experiences, and I'm done wasting it lamenting the things I can't change and are ironically far more pointless than the simple human joys I'd been questioning before. Because that more than anything really IS pointless.
Beautiful comment. Thank you for sharing. And never forget that every moment is a blessing. Love!
Hey there bro. I hope all is well from now on. It's understandable, we all go through rough times sometimes. A little helpful tip, have you tried to find the purpose of life? I advise you to check out the Qur'an and Islam. May Allah SWT guide you. Best of luck.
Great comment man. I also think life is meaningless but that should set you free in a sense. Nothing you or anybody else do is going to have an impact on the "grand scheme" so you might as well stop stressing about it and just try to have as much fun as you can while you can. Invincible is some good shit. I can't wait to see what they do with season 2
Bro had an epiphany in the TH-cam comment section
I ain't reading allat
9:10 Watching Omniman crush that guy trying to reach for his dead daughter was heartbreaking😔🥺
Like he was just a bug. THat's a strong image/message. Damn
Yea that was the worst one for me
@@jonatassilva2605 I mean that how we think about ant. We don't question there existence
@@elmichellangelo Well sure, but I don't go out of my way to smash them either!
I just have to say. This is the MOST calm, gruesome, and most insane showcase of power I've EVER seen in any show ever.
So Awesome!
Imagine getting hit so hard, your body causes 9/11 in Chicago
Steve Yeun is great in this. Mark feels like a real teenager reacting to all this like a real teenager would from the crying, to the swearing, the heartbreak, and the trying to process it all even with a smile at the end. This is some great stuff.
This was basically how a saiyan invasion would look like but R-rated
The way Mark says “It’s not too late” so emotionally just for Omni Man to say, in the coldest most deadpan voice imaginable, “Yes it is” is fucking hilarious to me
In the line
"Pathetic excuse of civilization"
I could feel the arrogance behind the voice, good shit J.K Simmons
Dude! I 100% agree with you 🎯
I love when people don't read the comics. I'm no veteran, but I read this series after episode 3 and I STILL wasn't ready lmao
Same and man is there a lot to look forward to
@@mr.protagonist5639 I want to read the comics or at least look more into a visual one on youtube I looked into a little but I'm not sure.
where do you read it if you don mind me asking?
@@Karma2pointO I bought the entire series on Comixology when the first episode dropped lol they got me this series is great
@@blazer1218 alright thanks
“What will you have after 500 years” might be one of my new favorite quotes.
I Totally binged the whole Invincible comic run in like 3 days, it was really dope. Hope they take their time and keep up the quality.
"MARK IS GONNA KILL THE F*** OUT OF HIM"
COMIC READERS:- MATE YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHATS COMING
Agreed i havent read the comics fully but i whatched a video series that sumed all the major plot points up, and its got me exited both for the rest of this show and to read the comics
Thragg
What happens?? Spoil for me please
@@justglitch01 you need to read the comics or listen to the comic histories theres to much to go over in a coment section
@@justglitch01 Nolan becomes a good guy and he helps mark fight the viltrumites.
The subway scene is one of the coldest things I've ever seen
right!!!!!
Cecil: american tap water is poisoned so you cant see certain light frequences
Me an italian: time to become sorcerer supreme
I'm so glad that this show got renewed for a season 2 and 3. I also heard that it even gets crazier later on in the comics. I can't wait 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Way crazier and More bloody
“My mind is just…”
“Clapped?”
“Yeah”
Best reaction ever
J.K. Simmons was the PERFECT man to cast as Omni-Man. Incredible voice.
Omni man: What’s your hand doing? What you tryna get into? 😂😂
Bruh lol
Lol, if Tra rags had super powers the world is screwed.
Damn. That line from Mark broke me. They did that REALLY well.
Cecil still got the biggest balls of any character and I stand by that, my dude shot Omni man to get his attention
Am I the only one that got major Vegeta vibes when Omni-Man was standing with his arms crossed during the baseball game.
@Joe Dirt i never said that, but it gave me major Vegeta vibes cause he always does it, with an angry face just as Omni-Man was doing. I know Piccolo has done it a couple of times & all the mother cliches in movies & shows.
I’m low key kind of scared now of villains in the real world. This nigga held Mark in front of a train and forced him to watch at least 300+ people get shredded from the pure SPEED of the impact of the train.
I'm so glad for Lupa's reactions here. Honestly feels like the first person I've seen who really grasps just how awful Omniman is.
We all know, we just also are aware of why he is. It’s good writing.
I been waiting on y’all. Y’all reactions to sudden stuff is amazing. This is gonna be fun
same i’ve been checking youtube all day since i watched the episode last night!! i cant wait to watch 😭
@@myahbreezyy466 Same.
They had such a disappointing reaction to the title reaction at 4:51 me and flat mates were all hyped for that part…
@@Oakland510 what did you expect? them to jump up and be completely blown away by the bloody title?
@@myahbreezyy466 it’s an iconic part of the show
"There's no redeeming any of this"
Eren: "yeah, about that..."
It’s crazy how OmniMan and his people are very similar to how Saiyans from DBZ operate w/ conquering planets. Ya’lls reactions always dope 🤙🏼🤙🏼
That was largely Frieza telling them to though, and King Cold.
21:29
Roshi: "He left... And he is gone" Best line ever
An absolute blood bath of a finale and I loved every second of it. This show is a masterpiece. It'll only get better and better, the comics are insane.
“She was more like a pet to me.”
Funny that. Because pets mean a whole lot to people. In fact, it takes a ton of heart to have a close companion like that and knowing that you’ll outlive them. But of course, Nolan was trying to prove a point that even *he* didn’t believe.
I literally teared up when Mark said "You dad." bruh this show is amazing
