"Loki" Episode 5 of Season 2 is a perfect 10 out of 10, and if I could, I'd go as far as 20! This episode is a masterpiece of scriptwriting and storytelling. It expertly weaves together elements of time travel and multiverse theory, leaving us with a thrilling narrative that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats.

One of the most captivating aspects of this episode is the clever nod to "Back to the Future." The way the show integrates these references into its storyline is nothing short of sutil and brilliant.

The suspense in this episode is palpable, and it's impossible to look away. It's a rollercoaster of emotions as we witness the characters grapple with their destinies and the implications of their actions. The character development in this episode is top-notch, making us feel more connected to the characters than ever before.

Tom Hiddleston's portrayal of Loki is, as always, exceptional. He has truly made the character his own and brought a depth and complexity to Loki that fans adore. It's safe to say that Loki is not only the standout character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he's also the driving force behind this incredible series.

In conclusion, "Loki" is a true gem in the Marvel universe. It combines outstanding scriptwriting, nostalgic references, suspenseful storytelling, and exceptional character development. If you're a Marvel fan, this episode is a must-watch, and it cements "Loki" as one of the best series in the entire Marvel franchise.

This was a great penultimate episode to the season! It's exciting, mind-blowing, awesome, and just everything the show is all about! It has beautifully set-up the Season Finale, and was one epic and emotional ride, not missing a single beat after Episode 4's jaw-dropping cliffhanger ending!

At its core, this episode is intimate. Although the story is, of course, very large-scale, it has a heavy focus on the characters, and relationships between them. There are many moments that pull on the heartstrings, and I'm genuinely so excited for the final episode of Season 2

Going into this episode, I didn't know where they were going to the story, but it was a great choice by the writers and creative team! Regardless of how the finale is, this season had been great!

I loved this episode most of all so far. Because for once we actually got an episode that was more character driven, by Loki who the Loki series is about( or at least should be). I think my biggest problem with the whole Loki series I general was that really. I didn't mind when they brought in sylvie because she is a Loki, but I had quite the issue with Loki's whole story having to be set aside in order to prop up Kang as the next big bad. This season didn't complicate the whole Multiverse/time travel thing too much so even if you don't like sci-fi timey wimey stuff you'll get it. We actually got to see how people in these timelines live and how scared and shocked they were to see their reality disappear. Honestly what a great episode 👏 and Tom Hiddleston deserves his Emmy for his performance as Loki. He's always brought life to Loki , but in this episode in particular he was flexing his acting muscles like crazy. The rest of this cast including Ke Huy Quan, Owen Wilson, Wumni Mosaku, Sophia di Martino and Eugene Cordero were incredible as per usual. Not to mention Loki season 1 and 2 have been consistently visually appealing and cinematic. Moreover the score is always on point thanks to the genuis of Natelie Holt. You can tell a lot of effort was put in this project and that makes me happy overall. Can't wait for the finale.

This episode captured all what Loki the TV series stands for - redemption arc, friendship, time and its relationship with and impact on us, and finally, the inherent complexities of existing and wanting a purpose.

Tom Hiddleston was on another level in this episode, and deserves some acting nominations.

The stage for the finale is set beautifully. Can't wait for the next week on how they tie all the plot lines together. This also sets up the next phase of Marvel films wonderfully. I, for one, am super excited to see if and how Loki returns to the movie.

10/10 episode. Hyped for next week, let's go!

First off, Tom Hiddelston is the best he's been in this universe. This episode alone is maybe one of his best performances to date. These past couple of episodes have sort of re-established him as the main character, and in some ways made the opening episodes better.

Owen Wilson is likewise very good! I've really grown to like his acting in this series. It's good seeing him doing something out of the norm again.

But this isn't just a great MCU series, it's a great series in general. A very fascinating concept that feels super fresh and feels like it actually has really high stakes. My only hope is that the finale this week doesn't play things too safe. I'm excited, because I still don't know how this season is going to end, but the way things ended here has me just a little worried. The season has been excellent so far though so maybe I need not worry.

It's also just exceptionally directed. It doesn't at all feel like an MCU property. Non-Marvel aficionados would probably enjoy this as well.

Also, Orobouros is one of the best mcu characters in recent memory.

Some truly haunting imagery here as well. Such an unpredictable episode. It feels good to watch a marvel property with high stakes that isn't predictable.
