Frequently I had to pause and rewind so I could reassemble the first season puzzle with the second's new pieces changing everything. Devouring two more episodes left me no closer to knowing what was happening or where the season would land. Fantastic.

With the multiverse teetering all around it, Loki is one strand of the timeline that is sustaining its originality and intention — and actually thriving. It’s about time.

The new season of “Loki” is a scrappy time-travel caper, a ticking-clock sci-fi thriller and a workplace comedy all rolled together, and a reminder that oddball creativity still goes a long way in the MCU.

Time will tell if the final two episodes can stick the landing, but there's reason to hope that, at last, the unending nature of the franchise needn't overshadow its creative ambitions. For better or worse, the ball is firmly in Marvel's court.

The four new episodes sent to critics have only a little of the esoteric oddness that so frequently made the first season a blast. The plot is so convoluted that the sense of fun rarely breaks through, but thanks to the sterling cast and some of the best production design on TV, there’s almost always something to hold your attention — if not to trigger any emotional investment.

Loki Season One was able to move nimbly despite being tethered to so much of the larger MCU. Season Two, though, frequently feels so sluggish that it may as well be locked into one of those puffy suits.

More than anything, Loki has started to resemble what it truly is: an ill-advised spinoff in the old tradition. A too-bright spotlight for a side character who was never best suited to lead.

Це той випадок, коли після першого сезону я з нетерпінням чекав продовження цього чудового серіалу. Як на мене, це найкращий серіал від Marvel який я тільки бачив.

Loki.Trust me, this show is good and all, but the last episode carried the whole season. It kinda felt like they were all filler episodes leading up to the last episode. Don't let my opinion stop you from watching it, but that's my opinion on it. Decent 2nd season. 6/10.

In essence, while the second season of Loki is enjoyable in its own right, it falls short of paving the way for the continuation of the universe. Tom Hiddleston’s Loki deserves a final, which, for reasons unknown, is given after 14 years, allowing him to be remembered as a sacrificial figure in the eyes of the audience. Tom Hiddleston emerges as the unequivocal victor of the day, with Marvel being the loser. The Kang storyline is currently adrift in the cosmic void. The show fails to fill the tension created with “they are coming” in the first season. Above all, jeopardizing Kang’s character as Jonathan Majors finds himself embroiled in an assault trial has left me concerned about the future of the Marvel universe. Particularly with the release of The Marvels, which, unfortunately, does not contribute anything to the continuation of the universe in conjunction with the finale of Loki’s second season.

Yikes, what happened? Season 1 was interesting with a lot of questions about the TVA and what was gonna happen to Loki and, well, the whole timestream. Season 2, all the mystery is gone, and everything seems to just hinge on Kang being a villain people care about, which is very much out the window now that Quantumania made him look stupid. Now, things just happen to Loki while he tries to warn people about Kang. It's so boring and very hard to care about. So much filler. All the intrigue of season 1 is gone. Hard to find a reason to care about this season at all.

In my opinion there are mistakes, no pathos and even bad CGI
