It seems like this season was focused on characters that have movies and shows coming out. Which i understand but They still need to use characters people actually care about like Iron Man Hulk T'Challa Thor Moon Night etc.

also I just can't get invested in characters that were created for Disney Plus like Captain Carter and Kahhori. Birdie was weird and annoying.

The animation on the finale was excellent as usual but overall this season was just mid.

They should stop trying to keep canon with this and really get exploratory. Stop having the season work toward a climatic arch, and treat it like the X-Files, with standalone episodes.

I also agree with the characters being used. It’s hard to get into this when I haven’t seen any of the new marvel movies besides Dr. Strange (yes, I’m casual.).

The what if episodes should have had one where the Avengers went evil and took over and Ultron was the defender of Earth or some shyt. Anything but Howard The Freaking Duck.

Does Ri-Ri suck at engineering? Nothing works well for her, everything fails at the wrong time, everything malfunctions but somehow works just that the last minute…she stinks according to what marvel has shown us
:yeshrug: To be fair that’s a trope that every young hero goes through. And if everything worked out for her, she’ll be called even more of a Mary sue.

Finished this up...feels like their heart wasn't really in it.

I reached for my phone during episode 8.

Watching a ton of anime this year, compared to say the last few years - and that Shang Chi/Red Hood fight was really good.

Ranking the Eps
1. Red Guardian Episode was the Best

And the rest I don't really remember.

Man what a missed opportunity.
