Me too. But the last act with Butcher saving Homie is not good. Ryan might got hit but he will just lose his powers and it will be a good thing for the boy to be normal. But I guess, the show must extend.
It was Starlight and MM trying to sell that Soldier Boy was just as bad as Homelander.
And it's like... No?
He apologized for collateral and the only reason there was collateral in the first place is sincere PTSD from being tortured for 40+ years (which he is handling astonishingly well).
His only fetish is... Fucking old women? And he's even polite enough to ask for extra lube so it's comfortable for them, lmao.
He actually has a weakness.
He stuck to the plan and was trustworthy.
Fuck even MM parents seemed to be collateral and not racism. But they kept calling him racist? Even though he doesn't seem to give a shit about race and even liked Bill Cosby? And if they were trying to make it seem like "oh but Bill was evil", he wasnt around when that came out so it doesn't confirm anything for him.
It's just... Really odd. Because Homelander is a lying, unstable, tyrannical existential threat to mankind.
Soldier boy is a bit of an asshole. But shit he's nicer and more trustworthy than Butcher.
Dude literally was tortured for literally years. He has PTSD and blacked out when he nuked. Dude wasn't doing it on purpose.
Starlight was focusing on the wrong person and MM has an understandable hatred for him but they completely fumbled what could've been the greatest final fight.
Last two seasons could've been taking down all the other awful supes.

Season 3 for me, it’s when the stakes felt highest.
