Last week was a little worried things in Ms. Marvel were falling apart. The Clandestine plot felt shoehorned in, Kamran getting powers was odd, and the time travel caused more confusion than was necessary. And the DODC? Are they a big enough threat going into the finale?
The finale itself felt so much like a return to the show it started as. Kamala in Jersey doing things with her friends, and this time she is a hero. All the interactions between characters were fun, the graphics came back to the animated style of the beginning, and ultimately I didn't mind the DOCD. Basic antagonistic force, but it's season 1. She's not gonna be facing down a Thanos, or even a Green Goblin level threat yet.
I do feel like the Karachi portion of the series should have been saved for a season 2, so overall the season felt like two very different things. But this finale made me smile, and I'm happy to finally see Kamala in her full Ms. Marvel outfit, and off on whatever adventure that post-credits scene teased.
