I’m currently reading up some plot details and what to expect from the upcoming Heroes season, Redemption. Because I need to have something else to look forward apart from hanging onto shows like Breaking the Magician’s Code and a rerun of Chuck. I love Chuck, but I would love to pick off from Season 2, where the episodes were discontinued. And reading about Heroes gives me a good excuse to not make every single post having a reference to Kuroshitsuji. Oh, the fail.
I have a love/hate relationship with Heroes. Because the plot has been spiraling downwards quicker than a crashing airplane, and the fact that sometimes things get too confusing. Maybe that’s just me.
Here’s a snippet from Heroes Television:
One of the big issues we’ll be exploring is how should a person with abilities live his or her life. Should they try to assimilate by hiding their abilities, or should they live more honestly, exposing their powers to the world?
This was always an issue highlighted in movies and this series. How should ’special’ people live their lives? I don’t know how will the general population perceive them. It’s such a taboo thing, and the idea of people with abilities don’t quite agree with most of us.
Claire will be at the forefront of that issue, starting college in Washington, D.C., and trying to discover, as all college kids do, who she really is. But re-adjusting to normal life won’t be easy, especially when Claire is caught in the crossfire of her parent’s divorce and a mysterious suicide on campus.
I suppose Claire Bennet’s life would be what us students might want to expect if we have powers. It’s already tough being a teenager-and now young adult, what not having to deal with this. Having to juggle both normal and her ‘other’ problems must be a real headache for her; I simply cannot imagine.
Meanwhile, Peter and Nathan are trying to get their lives back on track. Peter is trying to be a hero in the purest sense — saving one life at a time. But that means cutting himself off from friends and family. It’s only when Peter makes a romantic connection with a fascinating new “powerful” woman that he’ll find out that life means staying connected to others. Nathan is discovering new things about himself everyday, mostly due to the fact that he’s actually Sylar.
I watched the trailer for Redemption, and Peter’s way of saving people as said is serving as a paramedic, similar to his previous profession as a nurse. I think Peter is also grappling emotionally within himself, trying to find a balance and trying to understand. The recent events might render him lost and often depressed. I wonder who this mystery woman will be, but it is natural of writers to slip in romance to enlighten things. Nathan, is not Nathan. Haha. So obviously he will come to terms on who he really is.
Matt will have to live with the guilt of what he did to Sylar; making his attempts to live a normal life with his wife and child virtually impossible.
The trailer shows Matt having hallucinations of Sylar, mostly of him demanding his body back. It’s enough to indicate his remorse of what he had inflicted upon Sylar in the previous season. It would be something that he can never shake off until perhaps he encounters Sylar as himself.
Noah Bennet (HRG), with the help of Tracy Strauss, Angela Petrelli and all of our Heroes, is tasked with forming a new COMPANY. But that new organization won’t be concerned with conspiracies and prisons anymore. It will be about people. Finding them. Connecting to them. And figuring out why so many of them have been seduced by another “organization” out there that treats people with abilities in a fascinating, dangerous and potentially deadly new way.
Oho. Another company. I just don’t know why didn’t they think about this in the first place. Only this time there’s competition, with a rogue party that presumably has other kinds of privileges. Judging by the poster below, I can only assume that Hiro, Sylar and Claire will be the main focuses in the story line. September 21st, people.
With Sylar, it's all good. 8D
