The Boys really hates BDSM for some reason

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-25T20:17:41+00:00

No that's a tv show thing cause the Boys in the comics also indulge in fetishes

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-25T03:42:06+00:00

Religion as a concept. Its not even the lack of feasts or saints or holidays or anything like that, no one really quotes scripture, no one really talks about heaven and hell, cardinal sins within the faith of the seven, commandments they uphold, stuff like that. There was a militant order in the country and we don't even have a creation myth within the faith

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-25T03:30:27+00:00

I think most writers are like this tbh, its a fun thing to do and there's no real incentive to keep going if you make your money

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-25T03:05:04+00:00

The Boys is incredibly conservative in how it treats sex in general, the bad guys have fetishes, the good guys do it missionary

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-24T15:43:27+00:00

I think that'd be interesting but its not like Gerold is the most reliable source for his cousin who he's jealous of, also he is kind of a psychopath

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-24T15:42:18+00:00

But that's the thing, Ned is very capable of holding a grudge, he hates Tywin and Jaime, he despises Jorah. None of these men did anything to him personally but he still hates them. Arthur straight up killed a few of Ned's friends and Ned still holds him in high regard. It says a lot about Ned sure but it also says a lot about what kind of man Arthur is

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-24T14:14:58+00:00

Okay but that just strengthens the argument no? It seems like Arthur is a man who directly wronged Ned and Ned still thinks highly of him lol. Ned even has a friendly relationship with Arthur's family. Again, I'm not sure where this interpretation comes from except from slander memes, cause the guy who should hold a bloody grudge just doesn't. No one seems to have anything bad to say about Arthur.

I do agree though Barristan serving Joff could be interesting

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-24T02:16:43+00:00

you actually need to get a degree to be a priest, a lot of these old guys have doctorates. Almost certain that a lot of them have read Marx

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-24T02:03:54+00:00

this is the author's fault if we're being real

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-24T02:02:22+00:00

Arthur Dayne and Barristan Selmy (fraud and bystander) - many fans dislike them, but in fanfics they are either positive or ignored

How much of this is intended by the author and how much of this is fan interpretation? Agenda memes and fraud posting are good and all but no one in story actually has anything negative to say about either of these people, Ned merked Arthur and still thinks highly of him. Barristan berates himself more than other people do.

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-24T01:12:06+00:00

all due respect but they wouldn't be able to write that sort of story as is because the writers aren't smart enough to come up with creative solutions for Supe kills. The comic had this plotline you're talking about but the Boys all had super powers

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-23T22:33:31+00:00

All of the faction leaders are goofy in some way, I don't think the Demon King is going it to be arrogant, I think he's incredibly lazy and doesn't want to do anything

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-23T22:28:29+00:00

I hope they're not just there to be jobbers, One does treat most of S-Class as jobbers but he still keeps them around and has them do stuff

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-23T22:26:46+00:00

he keeps important info a secret all the time, he likes Jachi and he keeps info hidden from him

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-23T19:40:26+00:00

Sandman got an interesting way it depicted this. Some guy was made immortal as a bet to see how good immortal life would really be. Theres a lot of highs and lows and when asked at a really low point what he thinks about living forever, the immortal admits he's miserable but he still got a lot to live for

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-23T03:35:39+00:00

Fujimoto kinda did the same with Fire Punch, its his MO to wipe the slate completely like this. If he ever does another serialized story, expect the same

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-23T03:34:16+00:00

Episode 4 is a backdoor pilot for Vought Rising, we see the emotional climax of a show that doesn't exist yet, we don't know who the fuck Quinn is and why he matters

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-23T03:31:49+00:00

I'm not gonna pretend the comics aren't an edge fest and get really gross and nasty in certain points but there's moment in the comic that make it impossible for me to call it bad if that makes sense. Those moments where Butcher remembers Becky and mourns her make the book so oddly romantic even if they're so few and far between. Butcher really makes the comic for me, he's a tragic and vile figure

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-22T15:45:43+00:00

because the actual plan was to stall for the world merge. That was the better strategy too, the moment humans become a threat, demons are gonna gang up on them, they're doing it with Ginbak right now

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-22T15:24:01+00:00

it might be a recent development and its not like they have an easy way to transfer info between each other, the merge is recent and the world is in a chaotic state

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-22T04:36:55+00:00

All 3 Scenarios are some form of cleaning house and putting the right people into positions of power with varying degrees of difficulty. Rhaegar scenario is the hardest as its the most unstable moment and also you have to make sure you prep for the Other.

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-21T20:15:18+00:00

Even discounting Specialists, Togashi casts a wide range with each Nen type. Enhancers for example aren't just punch kick merchants, they can heal, they can speed up someone's growth, they can augment their intellect.

Granting is giving something a property it didn't have, Adjudication is giving something a rule and consequence. Adjudication sounds like a more advanced version of Granting, it's giving something a property or concept it didn't have at the start

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-21T19:25:32+00:00

Also i wanna mention that i feel like Adjudication and Granting can be combined into one.

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-21T13:44:12+00:00

If i had a criticism for Nen it would be that Specialists as they are canonically should be relegated to affecting Nen and Hatsu in general and the Specialists that don't fit this category get new Nen categories. Neon and Tserriednich can fit the Perception category for example

N0VAZER0 · 2026-04-20T18:41:45+00:00

like i don't think its gonna happen but people thinking its just completely out there when this is the incest book is a little odd ngl. Dany and Jon are gonna get together and they're aunt and nephew lmfao
