What to Know

Critics Consensus

Diabolical's animated shorts pack the same supersized punch as The Boys, transposing the original series' scabrous social commentary into a cartoonish medium that's just as much devilish fun -- and definitely not for kids.

Brian Tallerico The Playlist As with most ventures like this, the total assembly is a very mixed bag of quality, dipping on the negative side of the ledger here overall. Rated: C Mar 7, 2022 Full Review Karama Horne TheWrap With run times less than a quarter of an hour each, it’s perfect for an entertaining evening binge. (Just put the kids to bed first — and don’t eat while watching.) Mar 4, 2022 Full Review Leila Latif AV Club The Boys Presents: Diabolical is a reminder of just how gross and fun a world of superpowered sociopaths can be. Rated: B Mar 1, 2022 Full Review Nuha Hassan Off Colour The Boys Presents: Diabolical is a gross reminder of how corrupted and messed up supes are. Where there is an animation medium, there is always room for creativity. Sep 4, 2023 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut The animated anthology series The Boys Presents: Diabolical stays true to its brand. It is a darkly comic, lighting fast, and bloodstained ride. Rated: 4/5 Nov 5, 2022 Full Review Rafael Motamayor IGN Movies The Boys Presents: Diabolical delivers a highly entertaining and visually distinct anthology with a variety of tones, stories, and animation styles. Rated: 8/10 Mar 25, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

matthias s *The Boys Presents: Diabolical* is a hit-and-miss anthology that captures the chaotic and gory essence of *The Boys* universe. Some stories shine with dark humor and inventive animation, while others fall flat. The variety of animation styles keeps it visually interesting, but the uneven storytelling can be a bit jarring. Still, if you're a fan of *The Boys*, this show offers an entertaining, if not always consistent, dive into that wild world. Decent overall, but it doesn't hit every mark. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review Laze T I liked the different art styles used throughout the series, couple hit or miss episodes but the final was Defiantly the best by far... Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/10/24 Full Review J B Ep 8. That's it. That's all. Started watching at Ep 1 which was honestly just kind of dumb. Ep 2 was better but still nothing out of this world. Ep 3 was a total throwaway & EP 4 was so f'n dumb I stopped watching it w/in 4 minutes. Luckily I came in here and someone mentioned Ep 8... NOT SURE why the entire series wasn't actually, you know, about The Boys like Ep 8 is and, instead, the EPs are some cheesy side product which could best be describe as 15 minutes of mindless torture. This series could have been so much more if it had fixated on the main characters. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/23/24 Full Review Istiak M man it's so damnnn good Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review Przemek E A few interesting episodes, but overall it kind of ran out of interesting ideas. I don't know, it just didn't knock me out. You can watch out of boredom. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/11/24 Full Review Alessandro A The style is a bit like that of The Simpsons. Some original ideas, but I wonder: why does adult animation have to be of such inferior quality? They are stiff and unlikable, almost always caricatures. Probably not my cup of tea, in any case it is predictable at times and the humor coarse. It can be done better. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/09/24 Full Review Read all reviews
