LS rant: He who remains was such a lazy excuse for the plot holes and bad writing to 'make sense', WHEN IT DOESN'T!!!

Genuinely such a lazy plot device istg. Maybe I am illiterate, but how can THIS be one of the strongest beings in the multiverse?

Don't get me wrong, I do like how they portrayed him and how he acts. He definitely has a very stark contrast between what you would think someone who runs the timeline would be, and that's what gives the 'ah ha' moment when he is first revealed. But it doesn't cover the fact that everything just suddenly makes sense because of the excuse

"their futures are being written by him, that's it."

Right, as if that explains it. He is so powerful, yet only knew that Loki had a conversation with him more than once in his time slipping, but not the exact amount?

It feels very much like the stranger things series (that they ruined with the last season, but that's another tangent). How they spent years being tortured and subjected to grueling fights and losses, just for the final battle (that had 5 seasons worth of build up) to end in 10 minutes and become insignificant.

GRAH I'm no good at putting my thoughts into words, but it feels so underwhelming when you defeat a villain like thanos; who wiped away HALF of the multiverse, just to counteract it by someone so childish and seemingly insignificant. I mean, the majority of the MCU leads up to the final battle with Thanos, just for it to not matter at all in the Loki show. Then we got this mf who says he has everything planned out when it is the most laziest excuse EVER just to rid of Loki.

(But boy those stones look delicious...)

IM MAKING NO SENSE AND MAYBE IM TIRED BUT IT INFURIATES ME THE AUDACITY. THERES NO WAY THIS GUY CAUSED THE MULTIVERSAL WAR!!!

LS rant: THEY QUEERBAITED US THIS WHOLE TIME!!!

(references made to this scene and more in depth reasons)

The reason I say this is because they give us that bit of information that Loki is bisexual, then never show us again!!! This is also very akin to them revealing that Loki is gender fluid in the file, then never shows him even shape shifting into another person, or even mention it again.

This was such a missed opportunity and honestly doesn't feel like enough representation. It truly feels like it was only there to serve the purpose of saying they had representation and were inclusive, yet it was only briefly mentioned.

They then double down on no representation, by making him fall in love with the most terribly written character; Sylvie, And furthermore making a weird relationship with Loki and Mobius, just so they don't have to write Lokius (rip)

(Not to say I don't like Sylvie, she was just written so poorly and deserves better than to be there just to serve as a love interest and cause problems.)

Do I think Mobius is any better than Sylvie? No. When it really comes down to it, they both used Loki for what they wanted. Sylvie mainly used Loki as a way out of the TVA and to get free. Mobius just has Loki as a pawn to find Sylvie and so forth. But at least there were some cute and caring moments between Mobius and Loki, to which he was actually able to say Loki is his friend. (unlike Sylvie).

There was a post on here going more in depth on how the relationship between Loki and Mobius was no better than sylkie, but oh my norns I cannot find it.

But overall: WRITE YOUR CHARACTERS BETTER!! AND GIVE US MORE REPRESENTATION FOR A CHARACTER WHO IS FULL OF IT!!

They are so in love 💔

Loki show rant!!

As im forming an outline of what I want to write for my Loki fic, I just keep noticing more and more inconsistencies in the tva as a whole. Maybe I just don't understand it fully since I am a newer fan, but most of it makes no sense even after I watched video essays and research what it all means. But what really confuses me is Loki's change in character.

A perfect example: how did loki believe mobius from the start?

I know he was in a new place and didn't understand what was going on, but if you are a TRICKSTER god, why would you take all of that to face value? Maybe I am trying to put myself in his shoes with this, but when mobius showed him the video of his future, I wouldn't have believed it to be true. The way he instantly believes it AND wants to change his morals immediately after seeing that seems out of character (ESPECIALLY if they took the avengers loki and not a Ragnarok Loki or something.) I feel like the whole story could have been different if Loki was more about his mischievous ways, and I definitely feel like his change would've taken a lot longer for him to realize or act upon.

If we look at Ragnarok Loki and the one leading into the events of infinity wars, Loki was definitely making a change when saving the asgardians from Ragnarok and also sacrificing himself to try to kill thanos. Granted, I did just say that we needed more time for him to want to make this change in the show since it was only until the end of Ragnarok and beginning of infinity wars when he made the change, but I feel like his reason for change in these movies gave him more of a push than the show did.

Loki HAD to experience the events of the dark world, Ragnarok, and infinity wars for his change to be more reasonable. He saw what happened when he lost frigga, lost Odin (good riddance), and also almost lost his people in real time. he needed to experience the loss for him to realize that what he is doing is a loop of bad behavior and causes people he loves to die. Thor even tells Loki that he basically can't move forward with his life if he wants to keep trying to stab people in the back over and over. That felt like a good time for Loki to look back at what he has lost, and make the change for the end of Ragnarok and into infinity wars.

But when the loki show starts, and the tva takes Loki, they take him BEFORE he can have those experiences.

(They have the loki from the avengers, and expect him to not do anything dangerous? After the destruction of nyc? Luckily he didn't, but that itself seems like something he wouldn't do, ESPECIALLY at that time.)

Then they just show him a video of his future and suddenly he has a change of heart. This just feels like a huge mischaracterization and has no emotion or depth behind it. I understand why he would want to make the change because of the oppression of the tva with other Loki's and the killing of timelines, but if we are still talking about avengers loki, he wouldn't believe it right off the bat.

Lmk if I'm just spewing straight up facts or shit, because like I said, I'm new gen. 🥹🥹

SEASON TWO EPISODE FOUR OF LOKI AND NO ONE FUCKING WARNED ME????

[cabinthreeproblems]

[justchillandliveyourlife]

Oh! You love loki but not sylvie. Loki has betrayed everyone in his life and is selfish too!!!

No.

No , loki and sylvie has no comparison

I see a lot of sylvie fans saying things like "Oh , so do you hate loki too?" , "Loki has betrayed everyone in his life so why is sylvie getting hate for betraying loki", "Sylvie is literally like loki from the avengers and thor 1 ,you all hate her but not loki"

•Loki has never been that selfish in his life, yeah there are moments where loki is selfish (tho I can't remember any right now), there have been plenty of times where loki has been selfless . He almost died saving jane twice in thor dark world , he came back to save asgard and thor in ragnorak , he also saved fandral in thor 1 when thor was busy killing frost gaints. I would argue he is more self interested than selfish.

Self-Interested: It describes someone who pursues their own needs and personal growth, but not at the expense of others.

• Sylvie is a hypocrite, loki is not. I hate nothing more than a hypocrite. She only talks but lives and such thing when it suits her. Except that she doesn't give a damn about anyone but herself . She has bombed the sacred timeline, used innocent civilians for her plan against the tva, burned brainwashed innocent varients and has looked smug while doing it. When she found out there was a emergency going on and they need Victor help she still insisted killing him for her revenge. She doesn't get to point fingers at others without looking in the mirror first.

•Sylvie is not like thor 1 and avengers loki , In thor 1 and avengers loki was villain coded and he got treated like a villain by others and the narrative. Where as the narrative or people around her doesn't treat Sylvie like she is a hypocrite or a villain. So first see that then talk to me about her being like thor 1 or avengers loki. If fans treat a character as if they have done no wrong or doesn't see them as villains that's okay because there are always fans like that but when the narrative is being biased like that ,it is a HUGE No . There is a difference between a character who is portrayed as villain and a character who is portrayed as morally grey character (if I can even call sylvie morally grey 🙄)
