This feels rather strange given that Season 3 looked like it was pushing Kimiko and Frenchie’s relationship forward.
But it completely veers from their established relationship, while also burying another interesting storyline surrounding Kimiko.
Kimiko eventually decides to re-power herself via Compound V, with Frenchie supporting her through the process.
The Boys is a drama series that explores the darker aspects of superhero culture, portraying a world where superheroes abuse their powers rather than use them for good.

Every cape in this series is stained with blood.
