'Loki' season 2 wraps things up gloriously

"Loki" season two finally gives a resolution to the cliffhanger we were left on for season one and introduces a few interesting new characters while further developing some returning characters.

New concepts of time are explored and the TVA's purpose in life is shaken by the consequences of Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) killing He Who Remains (Jonathan Majors) during the previous season's finale. Loki (Tom Hiddleston) also struggles to discover his new place in life.

Admittedly, my motivation to watch "Loki" season two faded a bit during the two-year wait, especially since I've seen less advertising hyping it up this time around, but it was well worth watching.

The addition of Ke Huy Quan as Ouroboros and Jonathan Majors as a more prominent presence was both fun and refreshing. I also particularly liked the development of new character General Dox (Kate Dickie).

It was also nice to see more character development for Loki, Sylvie, Mobius (Owen Wilson), B-15 (Wunmi Mosaku), Casey (Eugene Cordero), Miss Minutes (Tara Strong), and Ravonna Renslayer (Gugu Mbatha-Raw).

While the current season initially had me concerned about the direction things were going, the ending nicely wraps up the majority of the plot and gives Loki a new sense of "glorious purpose" that has bigger implications regarding the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as a whole.

What more can we ask for in a second season? If you enjoyed season one of "Loki" and want context into the MCU's expanding multiverse, watch "Loki" season two.
