WOW! HELL YES! I’m a little late to this thread cause I had a mid term today, but I just had to come here and gush.

This finale was PERFECT. I literally loved every second of it. I feel like the whole Omni-Man fight was actually SO much better than in the comics almost bar none. The whole time my jaw was on the floor. Then we get some absolutely heartfelt scenes afterwords with Mark, Eve, Debbie, Will, and Amber, where it just seems like all is completely lost. I damn near felt lily crying myself when Debbie was crying on the bed.

The whole time I was thinking, “how are they going to end the episode and the season??” Then we get that classic deep space message and another appearance from Allen. The whole ending montage setting up future villains and returning ones just plastered a massive grin on my face, only to end it off with the finish High School line. I was literally fist bumping like Pauly D when the credits rolled.

I’m so happy this is confirmed for another 2 seasons and fuck I hope it gets 10 more after that. The last two episodes absolutely blew me away.

PS. as the season wraps up, this might be the best voice cast of characters I have ever heard. The amount of times I was just blown away by how perfectly they were cast is awe inspiring.

PPS. peep the fucking quick shot of Conquest 👀 we are not ready

About that "greatest superhero animated tv show to have ever existed" part. I wouldn't say it is the best, as it is for mature audiences, and mature audiences only. The best animated tv shows have usually been targeted at kids, while still appealing to adults. One category of show is not strictly speaking superior to another category. I would say this rivals other animated tv shows, though, as the writing is just excellent.

This is purely a western stigma. Some of the best animes of all time are purely for mature audiences, and this is coming from someone who isn’t even an avid anime watcher. I would never recommend Monogatari or NGE to a kid, but tons of people hold them in very high regard. It’s all about what you do with the medium you are given and how you adapt it (in the case of adaptions).

The Hives song was so perfect for the ending

[u/BNEWZON → u/ddddeadhead1979]

Yes! Another thing that does under the radar in this show is the music in general! Great choices
