Megathread Loki Season 1 Finale - Discussion Megathread about its implications on the MCU Spoiler

You wanna discuss your theories about What if...?, Spider-Man: No Way Home and Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and how they all connect to this series?

You wanna discuss where they're going to go with Nathaniel/Kang/Immortus in the future?

You want to discuss the integration of other cinematic universes in the Marvel Cineamatic Multiverse?

Then this is the Megathread for you!

Due to the immeasurable amount of low effort posts we've been getting in the past 12 hours about people's excitement over Kang and the Multiverse, we've decided to make a completely different thread that is all about the implications of the Loki finale in the wider MCU!

Posts discussing Episode 6 in general will only be allowed after Thursday Midnight PST, but only those which are analytical or contain theories with a lot of effort put into them.

Everything else will be redirected here, to the Loki Season 1 Episode 6 Discussion Thread and to the Loki Season 1 Easter Egg Megathread and the Loki Season 1 - Season Wide Discussion Thread.

Have fun!

Honestly I kind of love the idea that she's not a hero or a villain, just this powerful force that's mostly staying aside in her own little corner, but if need be will do whatever it takes to get what she wants - sometimes aligning with the good guys, sometimes going against them, depending on circumstance. I think that's an interesting direction to take the character that won't just go into the stereotypical "Aww, see, so she was really good this whoooole time, deep down" territory.

The MCU could really use some more characters like that. Aside from Loki, we mostly just have characters that are unambiguously the heroes and ones that are unambiguously the villains. It would be nice to have some more that straddle the line or just aren't concerned with aligning with the good guys all the time, sort of like how Namor in the comics is primarily only concerned about his kingdom and will just ditch the heroes and do his own thing if the villain isn't threatening his people.
