Jordan Moreau SPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched episode 5 of “The Boys” Season 3, titled “The Last Time to Look on This World of Lies.”Despite playing Kimiko, the quietest member of the Boys, Karen Fukuhara is also one of the deadliest. “The Boys” star has plenty of fighting experience, having played Katana in DC Comics’ “Suicide Squad,” and years of martial arts training, but Season 3 of Prime Video’s adult superhero show threw two new challenges at her: fighting with dildos and performing a song-and-dance number.The brutal and hilarious dildo fight scene took place in last week’s episode of “The Boys,” which featured a trove of superhero-themed adult toys in a Russian gangster’s bedroom.
But instead of the dildos being used for their intended purposes, Kimiko gouged mobsters’ faces with them as a Russian version of “I Will Survive” soundtracked the violence. The dildo fight scene — which may be the first of its kind in TV history — is played for laughs, but it underscores Kimiko’s growing frustration with her powers, which make her feel like a monster.
Episode 4 of Season 3 ended with Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles) reawakening and catching Kimiko in an explosive blast. She gets impaled on a piece of rebar, and her self-healing powers are unable to repair the damage.
In Friday’s latest episode, she wakes up in a hospital, feeling better and having lost her powers completely, much to her relief. While she and Frenchie (Tomer Capone) are watching a video of Judy Garland singing “I Got Rhythm” in her hospital bed, Kimiko opens her mouth and is suddenly able to sing perfectly.
