Yeah they basically have like an attack/defence mode, as the male they can take and absorb damage and after changing to the girl they use what they absorbed to knock them back
The powers are great. Cate can manipulate minds, Marie can blood blend, Jordan as masc is defensive and indestructible, as fem they are offensive and can throw out force, Andre is the weakest as just being telekinetic. Emma power is lowkey cool too
Also, why some of their powers are weird is probably because they are bringing the show back down to earth like early The Boys style. So they play on real-life problems, which is why they seem weird. Emma's is a "play" on Bulimia and purging. So she has to throw up to get small like the disorder. That doesn't make it a disorder it's literally her power, which is what the students don't get. In Marie's case: she has to cut herself to use her power. This plays on self-harm and same case with Emma it's just how their powers work. Very uncomfortable but realistic. This is very interesting because l mean it shows you the reality of powers because not all of them are flashy and overpowered, reality is tha there are some fcked powers out there and it's good they show that because people often forget they can't choose what power they get.
Bro.. there is ALWAYS blood around. Once she figures out her powers... she could literally be the person to take down Homelander. Imagine shutting off the flow of blood to his brain....
Fair to mention, social media followers plays a big role in the rankings. As for the weak powers, I sort of get your point, but remember these are college kids so their powers are about a 65-70% meaning later on we may see each of them actually learn to perfect them and see it to their best potential
The drug they use to give them powers is called Compound V. I think Jordan's powers are cool with defensive and indestructible as masculine and offensive as a female with agility and energy bursts. Cate's mind control is better than Alison because at least she doesnt have to say, "I heard a rumor." to make her power work. Everybody's weak to you guys if they arent indestructible.
You have had 3 whole seasons to see the supe’s powers…vs the single episode. You have a gripe because they didn’t give you all the answers upfront. What would be the point of the show if they just gave you all the answers? Golden Boy is as indestructible as Homelander. The only person who could hurt him is himself. Marie‘s power is OP you haven’t seen anything yet.
I think the powers are unique. And you have to remember they're in that school to learn and develop their powers even more. Jordan is actually one of my favorite powers. Think of Black Panther's suit where it takes and absorbs energy, and then it counterattacks with all the power it has collected. That's Jordan Li. Boy Jordan is basically indestructible and absorbs energy and Girl Jordan fires energy blasts and has superhuman agility.
The Powers explained : Golden Boy- Fire Manipulation(so think Human Torch from Fantastic Four) Flame on, fire blasts, Increased Durability, Flight, Super Strength, etc Marie- Blood Manipulation( So think Blood Bender from Avatar) Self Healing/healing others, blood weaponry/ constructs, blood explosions, controlling blood in other living things in general (Most OP ability to have in the Boys Universe tbh!!) Jordan: Shifting (Male Form- Female Form) Male Form is Indestructible, has really high durability, super strength and some kind of physical attack absorption. Female form is very agile, evasive, has energy manipulation and can repel physical attacks absorbed in male form in high Energy. Emma: Size Manipulation( think Ant man from Marvel) I don’t want to say to much cuz it’s involves spoilers so yeah Antman type powers but obviously with the draw back of self harm. Andre- Metal manipulation( so think Magneto from Xmen) move, control, shape any metal, also has some kind of sub ability related to metal made-Technology. Cate- Telepathy( So she’s like a mixture of Emma frost and Rogue from Xmen with Mantis in the mcu and) she can do everything that a telepath can do, mind control, illusions,Memory erasure, empathy/ controlling emotions, etc but obviously has the drawbacks of Physical touch and another you’ll learn in future eps (such a nerf to any Telepath tbh because without that she would and should be number 1) Their all Op abilities but the drawbacks( which is intentional/ correlates to self harm on Marie(cutting), Emma(bulimia) and Cate(over exert) makes it seem weak even Emma abilities you’ll come to see… Also they’re like college students who are still figuring out the powers unlike Characters in The Boys so we should see the potential grow as time goes on.
Golden Boy was just holding back. Just the fact that he can fly makes him devastating. Maybe not in Marvel or DC, but in something like in the Boy's universe, it is almost OP. Plus his super strength and durability. He took a punch from someone with super strength to the PP like it was nothing. He could definitely take on Maeve and Soldier Boy and defeat them. Homelander, maybe. He can fly like Homelander, something that he isn't used to. We don't know if he could take Homelander's lasers, but I think he is durable enough to withstand Homelander's strength to not be one shot easily. What Homelander does have over Golden Boy is experience, so HL might win because of that.
Fem Jordan doesn’t have super strength, only masc Jordan does. I mean fem Jordan does have above average durability and strength in terms of supes, but not super strength. Also no way could luke take on Maeve and homelander, he’s strong but not that strong. Homelander flies like it’s nothing, for luke it takes a while. Other than flames he has to get up close to fight, and Maeve is the most trained in martial arts a supe can be, so she would tank him.
@@bookwormd8627 First. Almost every super has super strength. Second, female Jordan has more attack strength or power male than Jordan. Male Jordan has unbelievable durability, even more than Homelander because that is his speciality. Female Jordan is for attacks and speed and Male Jordan for defense. Golden has training and his power is way more powerful than Maeve. Maeve has been overestimated. She hasn't won one battle without help or distraction Golden Boy is still young, so he can get even better.
@@lunavioleta001 I think you forgot the part where golden boy died so he ain’t getting any better 💀 Also fem Jordan’s specialty isn’t strength, it’s superhuman agility and energy blasts.
@@bookwormd8627 Because he killed himself. If a super hero expert said he could become as good or even better than Homelander, then it does have weight. And her "energy blasts"are stronger than a punch. Every time they attacked, they turned female. They were strong as a male, she would always be a he.
Golden Boy looks the part of hero. He'll "Spin" nicely , His power is flashy he was a good looking kid so gifted he was recruited before he graduated easy to sell to the masses and is stoppable unlike Homelander.
The puberty = powers thing isn’t accurate, its just when marie found out she had powers because it was probably the first time she bled around that age
Yeah, from within the shows canon it usually manifests much younger than the 12 years old of Marie... So yeah It definitely isn't dependent on puberty... Because we literally see infants displaying their powers within The Boys show. But I guess this show is just kind of expanding the canon of that information and making it so that people discover what their powers are at different ages. Some powers are more obvious and harder to hide than others.
This. The seven are meant to be like the best of the best of all of the 250 plus people that have been given compound V in America... So yeah they're going to have more refined control of their powers. Hell even within The Boys show there's some people that have completely fucking useless powers like the dude with the prehensile dick and a bunch of the people within the diabolical series... The animated show goes into significantly more detail about how shitty and harmful and useless some people's powers can be within this world.. it's a roll of the dice when you give a person compound V... some get really cool useful powers and a lot of strength to wield and others have completely fucking useless ones... The show is just sticking with the canon that the boys show and the diabolical animated series has already told us about. 🤷♀️ And yeah these people are just random college kids so they're not going to be as powerful as the seven... It honestly wouldn't really make ANY sense if they were.
CONGRATS ON 75k SUBS PACK🖤💛🖤 sorry I haven't been involved in awhile here had a rough patch but I missed my pack💛🖤 I remember when u guys were starting and had like less than 500 subs. I knew from the first VID that this channel was something special 💯-alpha
Goldenboy I think is a social commentary on like “Mediocre #FFFFFF boys” his powers are cool but not really that great just aesthetically dope. Blood Bending is a dope power. Gross asf but dope.
I personally will not be watching this show on my own because the first episode basically traumatized me multiple times, but I might come back and check yalls reactions to see if its a good show 😅
Ima be honest Goldenboys power is way cooler than homelanders. Assuming since hes still in school he was on track to mastering his abilities at his full potential he could literally be the human torch which wuld be leagues better than homelander. Fire manipulation flight fire blasts strength and durability among potential other abilities where homelander is just super strong and durable can fly and has laser eyes with extended vision. Id say luke at his full potential could rival if not surpass homelander. He is homelander + fire powers.
13:49 Dawg the mom smiled because she knew it was her period, not because she might have gotten her powers. If she were _excited_ about POWERS she’d react a lot differently
so far i like the girl that can shrink or grow tall even though not the greatest powers like homelander i like her personality vibes and you caught on to her sexual side which is what attracted me to her. i dont like the main girl blood powers are kinda gross using them like spidermans webslinging and i didnt even realize golden boy was arnolds son until someone else mentioned it, right now the scariest one is the pretty blonde with gloves reminds me of rogue from xmen
Golden Boy did project his flames off his body and the beginning of his fight with Jordan before Marie left😅 Or so it seems maybe it was just the distance between the two.
Jordan has two forms. The defense form (male) is super durable and is physically stronger. The offense form (female) is faster and more agile with white or semi transparent energy blasts.
basically when jordan is a guy, they are invulnerable and have super strength and when they are a girl, they are fast, agile and have energy powers. so one can take a punch and the other can make energy blasts.
Jordan Li powers for the male side are Superhuman Strength and Durability, female side is Energy Blasts/agility. I will say their powers are similar to Black panther suit where it can absorb kinetic energy and dished it energy out. The male form who is very durable can take/absorb kinetic energy and for their female form can dish that damage out as energy blasts.
i Agree with the powers being kinda mid, but the upside is since theres so many students i feel like were gonna see random classmates help out and see Unlimited amounts of diff powers
They don't have the heavy hitter characters like Homelander and Billy Butcher to follow. But it's definitely a start to something that could be pretty damn cool.
