3/25/2023 0 Comments Loki episode 6![]() ![]() Loki, Sylvie, and Mobius all believe very much the opposite - that the chaos of life is a worthy price for being able to live authentically. He Who Remains and Judge Renslayer have relatively straightforward perspectives on this matter, both believing that sacrificing others and preventing their free will is ultimately a good choice if it potentially prevents further chaos. Given Loki's final episode revolves around the idea that countless timelines were neutered based on whether He Who Remains deemed them dangerous or "not true" to the Sacred Timeline, it was perhaps inevitable that the discussion in the finale would turn to the nature of free will. Either way, it's also crucial that Loki season 2 covers the aftermath of the God of Mischief's personal arc, too, as him losing his bonds with Sylvie and Mobius in one fell swoop surely isn't easy on him. Depending on its release, Loki season 2 could also tie in closely with Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness or Ant-Man 3, as all three projects share some close ties both conceptually and plot-wise. Though Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania will feature Kang as its villain, there are no doubt many other alterations to the timeline for Loki to try and help sort out - as well as him no doubt trying to prevent a future multiverse war. ![]() On a more personal level, the second season will presumably see Loki and Sylvie's relationship under the lens more too, after her turn on him at the end ripped his heart out. As the Loki finale makes it clear that only Sylvie and Tom Hiddleston's Loki know what went down between them and He Who Remains - and are possibly the only people who remember that the timeline looked like prior to Sylvie killing He Who Remains - it seems most likely that season 2 will revolve around this. Loki episode 6's mid-credits scene revealed that there will be a Loki season 2, which naturally raises questions on where this season's story will go. And in more symbolic terms, removing Loki's second greatest ally - after Sylvie's betrayal - leaves him isolated and alone: hauntingly bringing Lady Sif's prophecy full circle. If Mobius doesn't recognize him, he's never encountered any of his variants, suggesting a very different history for Loki. On top of this, there's also the intriguing suggestion that the changes to this timeline meant that Loki never became the TVA's most-pruned individual, as was established earlier in the season. This makes sense when the changed statue in the TVA offices is taken into account, though, as it appears that this may be a timeline Loki technically never even met Mobius in - as Kang leading the TVA means many other changes may have also taken place unbeknownst to viewers. ![]() Loki and Mobius' relationship was an integral part of Loki season 1, and so it came as something of an unexpected blow to discover that, after Sylvie betrayed Loki and sent him through the time door, he landed in a different timeline and that version of Mobius didn't recognize his former ally and friend. ![]()
