My only criticism is that it was disappointing that the cliffhanger from the end of last season tuned out to be kind of a fakeout.
“Ooooh, so now Loki’s in a different timeline or something, and no one remembers him! Lots of possibilities here! Oh, wait, no, everything’s back the way it was by the end of the episode, with almost no effort on his part.”
Although, maybe there’s still more to come for that plot point. I had a fair few plot complaints about Ahsoka early on, but they actually have all gotten addressed.
Yeah I thought he was at a completely different TVA in a different timeline where Kang was more evil. But no he was just in the past, and now he’s back.
Thatwas so awesome. I’m a huge MCU fan but a whole bunch of series didn’t scratch the itch. I loved Ms. Marvel and She-Hulk, but they didn’t have quite the magic where I craved for the next episodes (which makes me realise… I miss Moon Knight so much). Now I can’t wait for the next Loki episode. Writing and score are incredible, acting as well. More, I need more!

Martin and Waldron did some good work here! Especially when compared to the other D+ writing we’ve been getting lately…
I loved the warning notice in front of the temporal loom room.
"After this threshold risk of spaghettification increases 7000%”
I love that that implies there’s a non-zero chance of spaghettification before crossing that threshold, too!
OB was awesome!
Ironic how people kept shouting at Marvel that they ignored the world-changing events of the S1 finale, but now it appears that those actually have nothing to do with the events on the main MCU timeline.
Well, the Kang we saw in Ant-Man probably didn’t exist until they killed He Who Remains.
I subscribe to the theory that the Conqueror is actually a younger He Who Remains at an earlier point in his timeline, before he succeeded in achieving total control by culling all of his other variants.
And the multiverse stuff is absolutely related to the Sacred Timeline being unshackled. The TVA would have pruned all those other timelines before they caused incursions. But they stopped pruning, and we get What If…?, No Way Home, and Multiverse of Madness, plus everything else to come.
