Review Detail of Weirdly_Random in The Boys - Let Me Show You A True Hero!

Safe to say, this is a breath of fresh air compared to most stories here at Webnovel. In fact, I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a quality story in recent times that has its main character be a genuinely good person without ulterior motives/mental issues. He doesn’t do the “I don’t kill” rule nor spares scumbags because he doesn’t want to stoop to their low. No, he’s a GOOD guy, not a HARMLESS guy. First of all, the writing quality is holding up really well. It strikes a good balance between details, plot progression, and making sure to cut down on walls and walls of text without sacrificing grammar and flow. If there was anything to critique, it’s that there’s yet to be a coherent plot-line. Of course, this story is just at its infancy, and a bit of background on what Homelander has been up to is warranted. Next is both the stability of updates and world background. Now, I won’t say much about it. The first five chapters were published within around an hour between each chapter, with its contents focusing on Homelander’s deeds. The changes he’s caused have already started popping up, but as it stands with only five chapters, I can’t be so biased. Hopefully, updates remain frequent once the schedule has been stabilized as well. So far, the story has been developing at a brisk pace, but it doesn’t feel like you’re being left behind in the dust. There’s enough context there to let you enjoy the book, even if you aren’t familiar with The Boys. It’s incredibly satisfying to watch how much the main character does and see the stark difference of how he treats the world compared to his original counterpart. The actual plot hasn’t even begun, but current events have more than enough substance to fill that gap. Lastly, character design. What can be said? It’s shaping to be pretty good based on what’s shown. Characters are realistic, even while discounting the fact that they’re from The Boys. None of them, at least the main and supporting cast, are one-dimensional cut outs that only fulfill cliche roles in the story. Now, Homelander, while he’s absolutely carrying these chapters, acts more as a source of change that impacts the plot. It would be a delight to see his inner conflicts and watch him grow despite the corruption of hero society, but even if that took secondary focus, he’s such a good dude that it’s hard to be disappointed. The only thing left to say for the author is to be careful not to get burnt out. Take things at a steady pace, and know what you want for the story. I’d rather have one chapter per week with exciting writing and plot than 3 chapters a day with idle talk/repeating content. I’m excited to see things unfold, so keep up the good work.
