Loki finally realized his glorious-ish purpose in the Season 2 finale of the Disney+ series, but it took centuries of study and a lot of ‘rewinding’ (at least for us).Lokihas captivated us with its thrilling exploration of alternate timelines, variations, and the personal development of the God of Mischief. However, the finale of Season 2 has left many fans disappointed, as it rendered the previous episodes completely meaningless.
The second season of Tom Hiddleston’sLokiconcluded quite powerfully.Even so, there were an endless amount of options left when the series ended with the finale. It is difficult to avoid thinking about how this might impact the MCU.Everything came full circle, so to speak, in the finale, which was, in some ways, a brilliant piece of storytelling.It was one of those endings where each character got what they wanted, while we also saw some major character development.

What Happens in the First Five Episodes ofLokiSeason 2?
The first episode of the second season picks up right where the first one ofLokileft off, withTom Hiddleston‘s Loki having time-traveled into the TVA’s past. He crashes through a building and meets his past self (Casey), who is unaware of Loki. This is after he escapes the pursuing TVA soldiers. After that, he momentarily returns to the present, trying to get back in touch with Mobius (Owen Wilson) to clarify his problem. Following several more instances of time travel while chasing Mobius, Loki eventually finds himself back in the TVA’s War Room.
The curse of his time-slipping was changed into a new power when Hiddleston’s Loki took control of it in the earlier episodes ofLokiseason 2 before the finale.He takes his time—all the way back to the moment the Temporal Loom blew up—trying to figure out how Victor Timely’s invention can work.However, he concluded that fixing the Temporal Loom would be impossible.
He Who Remains (Variants of Kang the Conqueror) told Loki that the Loom was nothing more than a failsafe that would wipe out everything but the sacred timeline. However, he ultimately chose to take matters into his own hands by demolishing the Loom.
After the timelines became dispersed, Loki took hold of everything and used his own magic to weave them together to create Yggdrasil, the world tree, a well-known figure in Norse mythology.
Now that the sacred timeline had been destroyed, Loki had effectively created a new one in which he was granted more free will than He Who Remains.This, thus, totally changed the whole narrative of the finale episode.

LokiSeason 2:Analyzing The StartlingFinale Episode
Loki’s TVA uniform transformed into a new version of his godly attire as he used the gangway to destroy the Temporal Loom. He charged toward the center of time, his horns blazing, through a green portal. There, facing the familiar window from the temple of He Who Remains, sat an empty throne. Loki sat there and joined the dead timelines to form Yggdrasil as gold light began to rise around the throne.
By using all of his godly power, we saw him able to save the day in thisLokiSeason 2 finale.He Who Remains created the Temporal Loom and TVA but we witnessed Loki time-slip and take his time learning all the science. And he physically manipulated the threads of time with his own hands and magic. There is now a Loki outside the multiverse. What about others?
It looks like Mobius (Owen Wilson) will eventually get to spend time with his kids. Renslayer (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) has suffered a terrible but unclear demise. As always, Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) is free to do as she pleases now that she has more freedom. And Tom Hiddleston’s character Loki has grown into an incredibly powerful god.
In the MCU, Kang the Conqueror poses a serious threat even afterJonathan Majors‘ character, He Who Remains, has been vanquished. By the end of season 2, Loki seems to have gained ultimate control over all timelines, making him the most powerful entity in the Marvel universe.
Is a third season ofLokipossible? Maybe.
Both seasons ofLokiare available to stream on Disney Plus.
