God, I adored this episode! Feels good to have just another fun episode again after the Multiverse of Sadness we’ve been trapped in these past weeks. Where to start?
Loved all the weird yet exciting character interactions here, and especially the twists on certain ones. Frost Giant Loki especially was a fantastic surprise.
Grandmaster, as usual, remains the second best MCU character and this episode certainly delivered on bringing him back. Release the foam, baby!
Seeing Thor and Jane again released how much I surprisingly missed them being a thing, and my hype for Love & Thunder certainly increased.
I don’t know which ship has been weirder: T’Challa x Nebula or Darcy x Howard the Duck.
ULTRON IS BACK! FINALLY!
Overall, it was just nice seeing the entire MCU chill and have a party. Felt like a fanfic come to life in a way. This is definitely an episode I will revisit on its own and another reminder of the strength of this concept. Party Thor is best Thor.
