[@christinefarrell6438]

A detail I really liked is how the injuries on Loki's face fade over the course of the episode--they're very visible in the beginning because he's basically just been smashed into concrete by the Hulk, but by the end they're all but gone. Just a subtle nod to how fast Loki heals. Props to the makeup department!

[@corvus1374]

Or how time is irrelevant inside the TVA.

[@faisalirfan6285]

When Loki was seeing the death of Odin and Frigga, it literally broke my heart. It also shows though Loki seems arrogant but deep down how human he is.

[@kramermariav]

Yes, he was crying while he was alone, so there is some sincerity there. Although he for sure has his own agenda. Save Frigga, maybe?

[@SaraRyderN7]

It also shows how Loki didn't want to kill his Mother, it was a accident as he thought Thor was up to the left.

[@shaylon3092]

Hes acting was phenomenal I also loved his reaction to him dying I felt that

[@FeyRayen0]

thats the best scene of episode 1

[@JanZamani]

A lot of his trauma comes from being basically raised to be a king but never being able to be one. Also how he was never told he was adopted and subsequently feeling betrayed. He was also make the 'god of mischief' yet everyone was surprised when he acts mischievously. A lot of his villainy comes down to terrible parenting. His time as king of asgard I think allowed him to achieve his true goal and mellow him out. Once he achieved what he wanted, he was a pretty passive and non-violent leader really. I think that was a big part in his turning into a hero character.

[@AyushRaj]

I love how Infinity stones become worthless when they were the centre point of whole previous saga

[@allenmobley8444]

They’re only worthless in the TVA, they have no magical or cosmic power while in the TVA. It’s the same reason Loki didn’t have powers inside of the TVA, the judge literally said no magic works here. So that also applies to Infinity Stones

The gender fluid thing is probably also more just from the Norse mythology where Loki is the mother of monsters and transforms into whatever gender of whatever creature he needs to

[@RobbyRSmith]

Gender fluidity in this context would apply to any being or race that has morphing or shape changing abilities like Loki, Skrulls, Durlans, Mystique etc. They could also be omni sexual since they could theoretically immitate gonads of all shapes and sizes from every gender type.

The one thing that bothers me is they never adress the fact that there's a branch still lingering from knocking out Star Lord. Sure the stone was returned, but the timing was TIGHT at the start of Guardians. It's safe to assume that even after returning the Power Stone, the delay of Star Lord wakign up (even if he was woken uo immediatly) would be enough time that Ronan may still get his hands on the stone as that intitial conforntation relied on the split moment timing.
