It was a touching end and a proper ending for the Loki story. He’s finally grown into the man he wanted to be, and deserves what he always wanted. He made the hard choice and I love him for it.

All this happened because Hulk hated stairs 😂

Loki became the most powerful being and ascended to the ultimate throne - but not because he wanted to. "The last thing I want is a throne". But it was the last option to save his loved ones and trillions of souls, despite his fear of being alone. If that's not the most selfless act ever idk what is. He chose the heaviest burden and made the ultimate sacrifice.

Let me put it this way Loki turned the Loom into the Ygdrassil at For All Time. So Loki’s creation became reality since the beginning of time. So when the Ancient Asgard study the Multiverse they understand it as tree when Odin eventually teaches it to children Loki and Thor. Odin is actually teaching them Loki’s creation. To further blow your mind, everything that happens in the MCU happens through Ygdrassil that Loki can control. So every humiliation, defeat, beatdown that happens to every Loki in the multiverse happens because Loki wills it.

It was an amazing conclusion. Loki got his throne and his Glorious Purpose

I wish they could have gotten Anthony Hopkins to whisper something as Odin when it faded to black right before the credits. Something like "I'm proud of you my son." Or even just recycled when Odin was telling the boys as children that both were born to be king but only one would ascend to the throne. Which would totally work because Thor refused the throne giving it to Valkyrie. It would have implied Odin knew all along and always believed in Loki.

To a degree, "He Who Remains" mentored Loki on his new responsibilities after Loki was astonished that "He Who Remains" was aware of Loki's new time-slipping abilities. Loki also went back in time to learn and master the engineering applications of time and space from Victor timely and Ouroboros - especially from Ouroboros as he was able to develop Victor Timely's inventions. In addition, Ouroboros was extremely open-minded to Loki's surprise when he time-slipped to his reality when explaining to Ouroboros why he spontaneously appeared in front of him. Other than Loki and "He Who Remains," Ouroboros was the next coolest character introduced in the series. Great Disney + series! I hope for one more season.

Loki's character development in the MCU was...glorious

You know what amuses me the most? People talk about who is Loki now and everyone has their own idea. Just like myth Loki was hard to describe, he was ever changing with many forms and roles :D It fits so much.

A proper journey for a character. I doubt the MCU can pull something this meaningful off again. Like with Tony Stark. This felt like a callback to the original MCU vision, not what we currently have.

As of now, I hope of two things: That Loki will return soon on a big screen. And that he'll never get nerfed

This is why I can't see Kang as an Avengers antagonist anymore, he's more of Loki's nemesis now.

This ending is epic for many reasons. As a Greek , I must say it resembles ancient tragedy : we have a villain who keeps blaming destiny for his wrongdoings and misery, he goes through suffering and meets deus maxina ( in this case it could be Mobius and Sylvie_ and as he goes through a metamorphosis, katharsis comes by him receiving what he always wanted to yieldQ a glorious purprose. I have to hand it to the whole crew, actors and personnel, behing this series.

Loki’s arc in the MCU has been amazing

A great point to make about how He Who Remains STILL needed a TemPad to utilize his time abilities, whereas Loki has no need of it.

I want Secret wars to start with Loki realizing the multiverse is in danger so he goes around hiring different avengers from different timelines (kinda like The Watcher did) to combat the danger (I don't think it will be Kang anymore because Marvel said they will be moving away from Kang, so it can be some other multiversal threat)

I love what Loki has grown into, but I feel a tad pity that he’s all alone. But maybe that holds true for all kings and queens, with great power on the top and alone.

loki is now the one that preservers the multiverse just like the living tribunal.. i really think he is comparable to the living tribunal but in a difference sense as he now embodies the concept of time itself.. watching and protecting every timeline in existence.. he doesn't answer to anyone but his own glorious purpose that molded him to a GOD of time and stories..

what this finale reminds me more of is the mythical version of loki's demise, whereby he was sentenced by odin to eternity under the roots of yggdrasil for the death of baldur, binded by baldurs entrails and with a snake holding a root of yggdrasil close to loki's eyes, with caustic venom dripping into his eyes. he would spend eternity having all of his vast magical power and life force drained out of him by the roots of the world tree to spew forth new life from its branches. and his only solace was that of his loyal wife sigyn visiting him regularly to feed him, keep him company, and alleviate his suffering with a bowl to catch the venom, at least until she had to pour out its contents. now back to the MCU loki, this actually isnt the strongest we'll see of loki, since odin changed loki's existence into an asgardian it means that as loki becomes older he also becomes exponentially stronger, and since he now resides in a place outside the boundaries of time he will quite literally spend all of eternity becoming stronger and stronger as he fights to maintain the weaves of his world tree yggdrasil. but is this last we'll see of him? maybe, maybe not. there is one possibility that he cant leave the end of time anymore since doing so will unravel the world tree, but remember that this is loki we're talking about. he could conjure any number of things to reinforce the world tree, from another asgard with all of its omnipotence, to one of his children Jormungandr (the world serpent), to even Odin himself. he'll eventually come to a point where his illusion magic stops becoming illusions and starts becoming reality.

I just realized, after Loki's temporal aura got pulled from all timelines and they go to find Victor Timely, it doesn't show Loki but instead Baldr the Brave standing with Thor and Odin.

Yeah, he's without a doubt the most powerful in the MCU now. Unless they do some kind of "One Above All" (which is basically God), I don't see how anyone can top him now. Anyone who steps up is gonna get erased from existence. That includes Dormammu, Strange, Celestials, Thanos with stones, Gorr, etc. Or he could just dump them at the end of time. Hard to compete against that.

I never underestimated him. I know Loki is capable of anything. It’s what Loki is. Loki is the only God in myth that cannot be defined. He can be anything he wants. From mortal to God. He can split his God forms and can even CHANGE the type of God he is. This includes Hela (Death, darkness & the true source of the Darkhold), Surtur (God of Fire), Jörmungandr (eternity,rebirth,immortality) & so on. He’s the coolest character ever. There are no limits.

Greatest character evolution since a long while, it's refreshing to see this kind of material still possible. Thank you for that great adventure.

maybe it's because that I'm an anime fan, but I just love the idea of being that one character in a franchise that is above everyone and is the strongest of them all

Loki is the best written character in the entire MCU.

You know what amuses me the most? People talk about who is Loki now and everyone has their own idea. Just like in myths Loki was hard to describe, as he was ever changing with many forms and roles :D It fits so much.

I think that, for example, in avengers the kang dynasty, the heroes would lose completely and the kangs would win, and the subtitle scene could show loki coming to save what's left or completely wipe out the kang army

Classic loki has apparently had a lot of influence on loki. - his newfound fesr of being alone - his embracing his magic as his chief weapon , the gift he got from his mom.in the words of classic loki no weapon comes close to loki magic.They were startled to see classic loki creating an entire asgard as illusion. We are stronger than we realize literally.

Time slipping is more powerful than you realize, it lets him travel back into the body of his past self in places where it should be impossible, even against beings with lesser time travel he still can try as many times as he needs to to get it right or reverse anything they do without any opposition

His character arc was the best in Marvel. He becomes worthy of a throne, showing selflessness, courage, and wisdom.

I still need to watch season 2, but if this is who our Loki is now, he’s a legend.

The Custodian of the Multiverse!

Btw he is holding time lines together, meaning he is legit holding celestials.

In the first Thor movie, I don't think even Kevin Feige had any idea how significant Loki would become.

But But it wasn't a "House of Ideas" or whatever Dude literally created Yggdrasil (the world tree) It's basically the Norse version of the multiverse, albeit WAYYY less complicated That's why at the end it looks like a tree Cause it's a tree

I want it so Loki gets to see Thor again.

I believe Frigga knows and is proud. She knows what purpose her child has now. She does see after all more than just what the eyes see.

If he dies, all dies

Loki has basically become the equivalent of one of the Endless from the Sandman comics. Loki the God of Time? The Living Nexus of the Multiverse?

One thing I interpreted about loki's time slipping is that rather than being able to go whenever or wherever, when he is in control of his slipping he can only slip to a variant of or one of his friends(Moebius, B-15, Sylvie, OB, or Casey) as an anchor point.

LOKI has peaked in the bestest way it ever could. Amongst so many terrible performing projects, The Marvel has produced a Gem. It would be wise to Not Milk it too much and lay it to rest...

Loki gained and had to live through centuries of knowledge and wisdom within what for everyone else was mere minutes. Imagine centuries of watching your beloved friends and the existence around you die over and over again. For others, it would push them to insanity. Look at Thor, it drove him into extreme grief losing Loki and failing everyone. Loki saved everyone who was living (those who has passed have had their time). And he doesn’t have murals all over walls for people to remember him by like Stark has for the snap. He has done this all for the love he has to give.

This was one of the best stories marvel has made

Amazing video! I loved Loki season 2!

The only thing Loky will change in this new multiverse is stoping Kang-like been ascension.

4:07 it was established in the last episode that Kane had went through this exact same process. He who remains at one point DID slip through time without technology And he can’t leave- that’s the whole bit. He can’t leave, like ever

Loki could probably wield Thor’s hammer now.

He's outer!! Trascendant space and time infinitely Trillions of lives is an understandment. Talking quintillions minimum per verse. Infinitely expanding timelines

Now Mjollnir have to become worthy for Loki 🗿

Odin would be proud of him 💔😢😭😭💗💗

Loki finally became the man in the chair

Woah the Star Wars voice giving great marvel commentary

what i am hoping is randomly in parts of the avengers next movie you get a response from loki like oof and screaming yes like the rest of us. also at random times something just shows up that shouldn't.

Thank you stormbracker keychain I love to have

his mcu title was revealed to be "god loki". and if i remember correctly, he can only travel back and forth in time to his previous self

Imagine 10 or 15 years from now while all the new heroes losing a war, loki (a but older looking) come to the rescue

He can travel through time but can he also trave through l the multiverse

The thing i’m wondering is with Loki being essentially the loom now in a way, there’s a problem being he’s not actually immortal, and on a universal scale his life span is basically nothing even if it is thousands of years. So it’s like what’s the point, unless they come up with some bs excuse as to how he’s suddenly immortal now? Unless I’m just being slow and there is actually a way.

Gotta hand it to Marvel. They’re one of (if not) the first to develop a character TWICE in the same continuity, and do it WELL

Loki is basically atlez now. the custodian of the multiverse.

I'd love to hear Loki and MCU avengers..mainly Bruce Banner talk about it all. Quantum physics, time, Life and the multiverse.

What happens when Loki gets bored? Does he start meddling?

He holds infinite amounts of lives.

Bro is back

it will be difficult for the MCU to decide what direction to take cuz whatever they decide, it will have to be GREAT. After a end season such as this...lets just say it is a tall order.

Now the MCU, has glorious purpose!

HWR wrote the path for Loki even to the tree. Miss Minutes is his Chess AI making sure everything after his death goes according to how he setup the pieces for the final Checkmate. Loki becoming the World Tree was exactly as HWR wanted, and Miss Minutes heard HWR say "I Love This" speaking to his wrist AI, "All This Honesty". Loki is still on the path to have the Sacred Timeline recreated as it must be. Every move Loki tried was to develop the chess board till he followed what HWR wanted, To destroy the Loom and start the cycle over exactly as it started. Miss Minutes saw to that. The Thrown is really the power of Miss Minutes. I think she is the Gold Cracks holding everything together. 4D Chess

Did not have time ⌚ to watch loki but can't wait for Echo!!

Please explain to me the new hierarchy in the Marvel universe with these divine beings. How is this new loki character compared to the living tribunal or a celestials ?

Let this blow your mind. Loki know HWR’s plan to isolate a single strand of timelines that only lead to his version of Kang. Loki on the other hand, lets all timelines live by creating the tree of life and holds them together. If you cut the roots of any tree (the forming new branches that eventually go up the tree and become set timelines), you will kill the whole tree eventually. To me, this sounds a lot like what HWR does, all but 1 root (the sacred timeline). So, I think Loki will have to leave the center of the tree at some point and since he knows HWR has a solid, yet imperfect plan, he lets him take it back over knowing he will eventually loop back to create the tree again and so on and so on. The loop of the multiverse continues. But after leaving the tree Loki loses knowledge of the tree and HWR. Keeps his time slipping abilities but only on the sacred timeline and can rewrite his story if he wants to but he never will. He will accept everything that’s happened and will happen, MUST happen to preserve all of reality, “for all time, ALWAYS”

If Thor can start a dying star.. Loki can grab onto the multiverse.. And Odin loves Thor more than Loki.. I mean seriously, Freya is lot better in Undivided love..

In myth a god has whatever power serves their story and their purpose to the society imagining them. They aren't really concretely quantifiable or they wouldn't be gods. Loki, now taking the role of god of stories, doesn't necessarily need "powers". He holds together the timelines allowing people to continue their own stories across the universe, that's now his role. It doesn't make him "stronger" than other characters, or "more powerful", anymore than earthworms, which are vital to the growth of plants, are more powerful than birds that get up early. While I think Loki is a great character in the MCU, I do hope this is a conclusion for him. It was an amazing arc and Hiddleston was brilliant portraying him. It's a mythic ending. To continue it, I feel, would render all this meaningless.

what about the watcher vs loki?

NOW WE KNOW WHY THE TIME STONE IS GREEEN

People aeem to think hes is not the gos of stories. His clothes his throne him being the heart of the tree tell you he is Loki The god of Storys

Things that Loki would now have to deal with would be beings like Nidhogg.

Tom Hiddelston all but said this is the end of Loki

Loki has literally just become the god of time.

In reality god does not intervene in mortal affairs. Loki might be the same only stepping in if the over all health of the tree is at threat. After all leaves and branches break and die all the time.

Looks like we gotta thank Odin for making Loki a god then.

Fans are screaming to reunite him with Thor now haha

And now we get a way for them to reboot things and a quick explain away to why it happened. I feel like thats whats gonna happen

Really enjoyed this series and Tom Huddlestone was superb as was the rest of the cast. Salute!

Did you get your origin for God of stories from comics explained?) because that’s not exactly how he became that. The true origin of Loki God of Stories is in Agent of Asgard miniseries and then the last mini Defenders where he gets to the real House of Ideas. Chronologically him meeting Now and Then happened a lot late with him not remembering ever being the God of Stories. But he had got these memories back at the end of Defenders miniseries

Loki is the new molecule man

Loki is not the God of Stories, he is more like "Atlez the Custodian of the Multiverse"

In a way it is kinda a rick and Morty type thing, where loki has ability to block off his infinity from the rest of the infinity.

He is now the queen of nevers.. god of probabilities not stories.. his power is now time manipulation but in fact is "reality selection"....

Come to think of it......its almost as if yggdrasil always existed since the beginning of time,but at some point kang(he who remains) is the only one who tries to meddle with the multiverse on a chaotic level hence the beginning and reset of everything in existence(multiple big bangs),forever,in a loop.....

I hate how people just don’t wanna see the actual story arcs in other characters it’s not every one but Loki, thor, and Wanda have insanely deep and traumatic stories and people shit on what makes them deep fat thor was not as comedic as people wanna act

There is a theory that saying loki will make the house of ideas at the centre

This loki holds infinite universe and it expands infinitely. The show did not explain how loki got this power but i think it was all who remain.. He got tired of being the one on the throne and having loki as his successor he can now roam free... He knows loki will always lose thats why loki was all alone at the end. The glorius purpose is not glorius but a burden. He can only watch but i know he can erase universe that is a danger to other universe so yeah. He has tva and he can delete universe by removing 1 stem. His tva vs other evil kangs and him against Universal dangers.

He played the villain, the hero, and god, but that's all past. Faced with the inevitable victory of Kang, he stepped outside the pages of the comic book. No longer a god, but God himself. Also, he's still a master of illusion magic. He could be the living tribunal, the one above all, even the one below. Stan would be proud.

Why are you naming him God of Stories? He actually is Atlas.. another God

“ well maybe ur not so bad after all brother “ - thor

Good points. Comics Explained went a step further. You should check that out

So the second strongest MCU character after K.E.V.I.N?

but could this relate to infinity ultron or the watcher

loki❤

i alway forget hes of royal frost giant blood.
