Oh wow. I just finished watching the last episode and it's amazing! I figured it out when Kensei and Hiro fought that Kensei would be the villain, but the ending was just AMAZING.

So right now the obvious issues are the virus outbreak (lolgay) and Kensei. I wonder if the two are linked in any way? Man, Kensei, or, from now on I'll call him Adam, must seriously be one patient mother fucker to wait... how many years? And do all this shit just to get back at Hero.

Hiro was pretty gay for the entire time he was in the past, didn't feel like hiro really at all, but as soon as he came back, he seemed to be the lovable innocent Japanese guy again ^_^

I always liked him, but he was so underdeveloped last season. I think that Greg Grunberg is one of the better actors in the series.

Agreed completely. Man I REALLY hated the feudal Japan storyline.

Tazer???  That's definately a gun.
PS.  Veronica Mars dies.  She only has a 12 episode contract!

Most TV shows have about 22 episodes per season.  We are at episode 6 already and Kristen Bell has only shown up once.  It could be that she just isn't in every episode.

Man, Matt's power is awesome! I loved it when he walked out that door.

It was a great episode overall. I'm really liking what's happening right now. By the way, Adam has the same powers  Peter right?

SO far the only known powers that Adam has is rapid cell regeneration, the same as Claire.

Well from what Bob said I assumed he had other powers besides healing. I could be wrong though.

Yeah, how could he be in the future unless he absorbed Hiro's power, or unless he just can't die and lives forever.

His power makes him functionally immortal, the only way for him to die would be to remove his brain (as strongly suggested when Sylar kills Claire in an alternate future), or to leave an implement that killed him inside his brain but that may only be temporary.

It has been stated by the crew over on their Behind the Eclipse thing at CBR that with enough dedication and practice, people can learn to use other powers within their "school" of powers....the example given was that Matt, his dad, and Candice could all learn to use one another's powers with enough work.  Presumably someone like Kensei, with all the time in the world to study and practice, would be able to extend his powers to whatever their limit is. I'm just not sure what the healers' suite of powers would be. I guess most likely he could probably heal other people now, too, like Linderman. Other than that, I'm sort of at a loss.

I don't think Kensei has learned Hiro's power. He's been alive all this time. Though his power must have evolved somehow or then I'm wrong and he is like Peter and has learned other powers as well, including Hiro's. It's true that just being able to heal himself isn't enough to make him the main villain in the series in my opinion.

Again, I think it's the former though... if he has learned Hiro's powers, I don't see any reason why he would be one of the originals. Unless he can't control his power(s) well and fucked up the time travel.

I thought it was pretty obvious that he was just immortal. I don't really understand why anybody would assume that he was time-travelling.

I agree to that, he's just immortal. If we are speaking of developing powers, I guess immortallity just goes with the healing factor. The only bizer thing I can think of having a healing factor is the power to generate other self-organic structures, like bone panzer and multiple arms, but I wouldn't go as far as that.

As for his powers and motives as Bob mentioned them. Adam is immortal, it wouldn't be weird if he just thinks he's god because he can't die. Even being burned totally was not enough to burn him. What does strike my mind is that Peter and Clair, both having a healing factor only heal when the damaging object is removed from their body. Though, when Peter was shot, he healed and the bullets came out of his body. It would be logical to think, that the bullits should have been removed.

As for Matt, it's pretty logical that he has the power of telepathy, I stongly disagree with the fact that he learned that himself. He just had the power in him the whole time.

As for favourite characters. I like Matt's acting. I just find Claire sexy (allthough she's almost 40 cm shorter as me :p). As far as powers I could say I like Peter best now. His telekinetic, healing, timetraveling and electric manipulating powers just rock. As far as personality goes I just like Adam best. First he is a drunk Brittish dude, who just stranded in Japan and after that he turns out to be the main villain. I was a big fan of the feudel Japan scenes anyways, Hiro rocks.

Hmm, conclusion: I like a lot of guys. Actually the only persons who irritate me are Nikki and those Mexican shits, Sylar better be killing them quickly.

I don't think Adam is evil, and I definitely don't think he has the ability to manipulate time.  However, that invisible guy once implied that there were other people out there like Peter, who gained the powers of others.  But there was nothing about Adam coming across anyone with a healing ability, and he didn't have any other powers. 

I really hope Sylar kills the brother and sister.  All the girl does is cry, even when she's not killing people.  For the first time, I actually like Sylar (though the actor who plays him is awesome), and I'm rooting for him.  Honestly though, does anyone actually like them?  They're so irritating, and I'm not at all interested in that story.

I bet Sylar's going to save the world this time by using Alejandro's powers to cure the disease. Although I have no idea if Alejandro's powers work that way.

Alejandro has powers? I thought he was only able to calm down Maya because of being her brother, that's all.

EDIT: Also did anyone get that snow falls in Miami thing?

He seems to counteract her virus by absorbing it into himself and nullifying it, he can also revive recently killed virus victims it seems. He's basically a walking antidote.

Oh, okay. I just thought the virus doesn't kill if it isn't affecting for long enough. That's why I thought Alejandro and many of the victims haven't died. Also if someone didn't notice, I added something more to my last post!
