The close-to-8 rating is only justified by the last 2 episodes of season 1.

There was a change after episode 4 which made everything more interesting and the story finally became intriguing. Also, there are some great visuals in episode 5 and 6. And the Loki titles got better.

The implications after episode 6 are just enormous and I m happy that marvel finally kicked it off. That doesn't mean though that this storyline is not filled with HUGE plot holes... I m curious to see how they will patch these up.

However, they need to fix the pace and make this series a bit more energetic in season 2.

As for the acting: Mobius and Loki are doing great, but the other female Loki seems a bit dry for now. Let's see in the next season.

Overall 7,9/10 let's see if the next one is improved.
