Did anyone else get a little nostalgic or even misty eyed at seeing Asgard. Asode from looking beautiful, we likely aren't going to see that again, so it was neat even if for just a moment.

The big bad is the original Ravonna. The one we’ve been seeing is a variant. Bing bong neat little bow.

Loki find will find another variant of himself next episode, because he's is own greatest enemy

In Loki, the real Loki is the Lokis we made along Loki.

I loved when he offhandedly said he doesn't even question a CrocoLoki anymore even though just going through all this in a few days or years.

There's a couple of details I loved about the Lokis:

President Loki's voice was slightly more deep and raspy than TVA Loki. Also his little scream when he realizes Alligator Loki chomped on his hand.

Classic Loki's dramatic flourish with his yellow cape when he sits laughing at TVA Loki. :allears: I do wonder how classic Thor would look like.

Oh and Frog Thor's voice being clearly Chris Hemsworth's got a big laugh from me.

I don't read the comics, can someone please explain to me why when I look up Nathaniel Richards it seems like one version of him is (pretend) Doctor Doom (with no mentions of Kang) and another version is Kang and then there's other versions of him where the same name is someone different? I guess the Kang version of him is most popular? But there's also Kangs that aren't him?

I am also doing this off the googles but there’s more than one Nathaniel Richards, the one that is Kang is a descendant of the other

Get a stuffed alligator, so you can cut a hole into it's stomach through the mouth and make it into an alligator "glove".

So I'm guessing next episode is the rebirth of the multiverse. Hope we get brief glimpses into pre MCU Marvel movie worlds, even if it is just characters looking at window to another world briefly.

I want Loki to pass by a mirror showing an image of Deadpool walking by the open door showing the X-Men at Xavier's.

Deadpool notices somehow and waves.

I agree with the people here saying that the person in the castle is going to be someone we've seen before. Three guesses: a version of Miss Minutes, Mobius, or the befudded clerk we saw in the first episode.

Also, Classic Loki was great. When he made the Asgard illusion, it made me suspect that he learned to do that while living alone. He missed Asgard so much that he created a fake version of it for himself. Which makes me a little sad. At least he went out helping his new friends.

i feel like the best guess is the speculation above that maybe our renslayer is just a variant left to run the TVA, and the Real Renslayer is behind this

would allow the twist to be someone we already know, but also would allow a quiet introduction to Kang like they did with Thanos -- like, mention that he exists and is involved with this without him actively being the finale's bad guy

I like that Loci everywhere are so petty that "I killed Thor" is enough to make them immediately decide to make Kid Loki king.

Did not like. Loki is a god of mischief, not a god of murder.

God of hammers Loki or especially god of missing your brother Loki should not be OK with that.

My guess about the finale: it's not another Loki variant, it's OUR Loki at the end of his life. He's preserving the sacred timeline because it's the one where he becomes a whole person through meeting Silvie, but in doing so, he's betraying her to living decades/centuries of a miserable existence beforehand. Now he has to decide if his own growth is worth another person's suffering.

The Loki/Sylvie cuddling scene was adorable in that first highschool romance way, but aren't they both frost giants?

It was so obvious that Sylvie was basically saying oh no, I'm so cold, if only someone could do something to help me :3:

A friend suggested that young frost-giant Loki, a blue-skinned genderfluid hornblob, might pattern their appearance on whichever Asgardian found them. Boastful Loki might have been raised by Heimdall, and Sylvie might have saved by Freya.

There's an infinite number of them. Like infinite boastful Loki's turning into infinite hornblobs. Mean Loki's. Heroic Tony Stark's. Mean bad Tony Starks.

There's an infinite number of Sylvies, we are just focusing on this one cause it's easy to tell the story. Come hit this man I'm telling ya the truth
