Spoilers OK KO (big reveal) Fall from Grace why it happened

Do not read if you are not caught up with the show don’t read it 

YOU’VE BEEN WARNED! 

Professor Venomous is Laserblast and is KO’s finally theory confirmed…though what I found interesting was his reason of turning evil.

As it was explained at the beginning of the episode while Laserblast was a great hero he was insecure about himself that he was never strong enough as a hero. Laserblasts’ strength was obtained by absorbing the power of his foes and he was entirely dependant on it. So much he would try to compensate by rushing in gun hoe into missions! He never felt like it was his own power and he wanted to be stronger; believing he wasn’t good enough on his own. Even though that was never the case his peers and fans all loved him…but that was never enough for him. Because to him, he was supposed to be an example, an icon everything a hero should be, he’s supposed to be the best. So much so he did illegal experimentation to obtain more power to be better. 

His fall from grace was attributed to the pressures of being a hero and I will argue that Lazerblast was probably considered the number 1 hero like Chip Damage. We can support this theory by looking at Chip Damage, why he was created and what ended him  (he was literally made to replace Lazerblast) so we can assume everyone saw Chip the same way as Lazerblast did… everybody loved and looked up to him. Though he was a robot and once he knew was and given free will decided to destroy himself because he didn’t think he was good enough as the hero they deserved…sound familiar? 

Basically, this pressure to be the perfect role-model to everyone got to Chip which is why he deactivated himself. As for Laserblast when he lost his powers it destroyed him, he went into hiding and wanted to die as a great hero inside of living on as a pathetic powerless man. What would everyone in Point say, heck what would Carol say he can’t come back not the way he is now. He would let everybody down, similar to the fall of Chip Damage but instead of destroying himself he decided to pretend to be dead he didn’t think he was worthy of being everyone’s hero. So he willingly made himself disappear… He hid himself to try to return back to his power but after experimenting on himself for months but he can’t turn back to normal. So he decided to not go back and became evil and transforming himself into Professor Venomous! The episode reveals his side but we don’t really explain why he came to this conclusion of just becoming a villain, going against everything he knew. He could have stayed in hiding instead of doing this over-correction.

WHY IS THAT? (yes I know for the money and stuff, but there’s more to this

I think deep down he resented hero society for putting all this pressure on him, always having to be perfect and be there, poster boy. Just being treated as a piece of meat never having the freedom as a normal guy. Trapped into society’s image of him as the perfect hero. And for what cost having to constantly worry about your image, what people think about you, always worrying about not being good enough? Hero society is competitive the people and have created this impossible expectation to be the best. Think about it everyone trying to be the best hero, being the most powerful comparing pow. cards and just look at how Point prep. was up until now it was a cesspool of toxic superiority. If you need proof look at Elodie, that’s what originally corrupted her to betray Enid. To be the best…(Kinda reminds me of BNA the anime). That’s probably why he despises hero’s so much because of there conformity and their standards which is why he became a villain. He lost his powers he didn’t need to try anymore, but it was the best thing that could a have ever happened to him. 

Becoming Professor Venomous was freedom for him! He can finally destroy the society he hated so much, which is why he doesn’t just attack KO he taunts his morales and beliefs because he use to think like that, “trapped” but only now being free as a villain.

“We deserve Freedom, freedom of the things we wanna do…”

Not only that but this gives us the reasoning and creation of TKO (if he is confirmed to be Shadowy figure as well). Think about it TKO is the opposite of KO and being free, doing whatever you want, not being trapped doing what your told which is why we got the episode of TKO Rules. He embodies that theme during the entire episode when he’s wrecking the house. The creation of TKO maybe Professor Venomous’ sick twisted way in freeing his son. But if that truly is that case then damn that’s dark.

This also explains his attraction to Lord Boxman (and yes for you nonshipper this can be put into a platonic sense too); I’ve already explained it here but this goes even deeper. Boxman although he’s seen as a lesser villain he doesn’t care about what others think about him and refuses to conform to their standards and stay true to himself. Basically, Boxman had the courage to do what PV could never do as Laserblast be himself in the hero society. He reminded him why he became a villain to have the freedom to do whatever he wanted. And can I just point out that Professor Venomous trusted Boxman with his darkest secret that he was Laserblast in the past… I mean come on that’s crazy? I know I’m shoehorning Voxman but that is the biggest secret in the entire show and he trusted Boxman with it. 

Well now we all now that he’s Laserblast Ok KO will never be the same… Hope you all enjoyed my post!
