To start my review I want to talk about season 1 finale. I thought it was exceptionally good. Sure, maybe there were plot holes, but everything from the animation to the music to the story was AMAZING! Every second something happened that made my jaw drop. Examples; (multiple Thor hammers, Star Lord stealing soul stone, Doctor Strange eating Soul Stone, Time Stones battling each other, AI vs. AI battle, Killmonger holding all Infinity Stones, Peggy and Black Widow team up on motorcycle, etc...) And these are just a few. Now what I loved about that finale is that it also used every prior episode to tie in a satisfying ending. It was all built up. It felt like it's own little Saga. Also the fight scenes had stakes for each of the characters.
ONE SPOILER BEYOND THIS POINT THAT'S EXPLAINED IN THE FIRST FIVE MINUTES OF THE EPISODE
Now this season finale. I really enjoyed! Animation was amazing! Easter eggs everywhere! I even liked Kahhori and Peggy team up! But there were issues that really lowered it for me. For example, I hate what they did with Strange Supreme! He was one of my favorite characters from last season, and he had a redemption. It took an entire universe's death for him to see where he was wrong. That's why the story was so compelling. But... the writers decided to make him evil. GUESS WHAT'S HIS MOTIVE! Uh, yeah, the same one from 2 years ago. They ruined him! UHHHH! Maybe the writers couldn't find a worthy villain. Or they just wanted to find a way to bring many characters into the episode to make everyone just look at some easter eggs. Hence, the title. They should've extended the 1602 episode (the one with some plot holes) and made it an actual 2 parter. Have Strange Supreme be like a help.
This episode was also not built up will. It was all very out of nowhere. The watcher didn't get to do anything either. He didn't have a story this season. Last season had a journey for the watcher. Also Kahhori is way overpowered! Her episode was good, but her power set is so confusing and she just seemed like she came out of know where.
To summarize this episode - VERY FUN TO LOOK AT, but quite a jarring turn of events. I gave this a higher score than I would have if it didn't include many of the easter eggs and cool fight scenes, because that's what was the most enjoying. And don't get me wrong, IT SUCCEEDS REALLY WELL AT THAT!
