who are your favorite and least favorite the boys characters?? :3
omg thank you anon ive been waiting for this question for so long. below im giving my top 3 favorite and least favorite, giving one thing I like about my least favorite and one thing I don't like about my favorite.
number one favorite- gotta be butcher. hes an incredibly complex character i feel for and what do i gotta say, im deeply in love with him. i know ppl find him annoying but to me hes soooo endearing. yeah hes a bit of an ass but thats just apart of his character and intentions and hes never made me annoyed. im reaching because i love him so much but the thing i dont like is that hes hard to draw, idk this the only thing i can hate on i cant draw him for some reason 😭😭
number one least favorite- firecracker. fucking hate her. she does her job as a villian but i really cant get behind her in any way and slight spoiler, what she does to starlight on live tv made my blood boil. i fear she has way too much screen time for otherwise a terribly annoying character. one thing i do like is that they do eventually make you connect and feel bad with her, as i can respect where she came from so she isnt just straight up evil.
number two favorite- now I struggled so hard on this I had to keep two tied. a train and starlight. i gotta keep this short otherwise im gonna rant for hours. I LOVE THEMMMM. i kin starlight for other reasons im not gonna dive into and believe shes a incredibly well written confident female character, and shes just adorable ngl. same for a train, hes such a cutie. i gotta say, her dialogue is sometimes iffy to me but its never that big of a problem. a train has one of the best redeption arcs ive seen in tv in a long while and i switched up on not really caring to LOVING him. my nitpick is that hes the tiniest bit bland in season 1-2. i wish he got more screen time in the earlier seasons just to get a bigger hand in his personality and goals, but i understand that they wanted to get into that later.
number two least favorite- stormfront. yeah. nazi. fork found in kitchen. but shes also just overly corny and i didnt find anything interesting about her and homelanders relationship. the only thing i like is her costume. its alright i guess.
number 3 favorite- sister sage!! shes not a huge part of the story but shes just a fun character to me <3 i instantly connected with her in her introductory episode and her standing up to homelander is just satisfying. my nitpick for sage is that her costume is just unappealing and boring. why orange. its the worst color.
number 3 least favorite- oh father, now unlike the other two. i dont really hate hate him? i just never really connected with him. his whole thing to me is the mega church gimmick and i feel he wasnt given character outside of his parody. which kind of sucks cuz he def had potential. his costume is butt ugly and EVILL to draw for some reason. however raise him up is an absolute banger so he has that. he never really pissed me off though, hes just kind of there so is that worse. idk.
thats all i got, thank you anon for coming to my tedtalk.
