The first reactions for Loki Season 2 are out now, and critics have hailed the latest Disney+ series as one of the best MCU entries. The second season will debut on the Disney+ streaming platform on October 5.
Loki Season 1 shattered several streaming records and remained the most-watched Marvel Disney+ series for over two years. And it will be not surprising if the upcoming sophomore instalment ends up outperforming the first season.
In season 2, fans will witness Tom Hiddleston’s Loki in a struggle to save “the soul of the Time Variance Authority”. He, along with his allies, will fight for freedom and figure out the meaning of the “glorious purpose”.
Some lucky critics have watched the first four episodes of Loki Season 2. And they have shared their reactions on Twitter.
Let’s check them out!
Brandon Davis from ComicBook:
#Loki Season 2 rules.
The first 4 episodes have a thrilling time-traveling mystery and charm. Some of the TVA sci-fi jargon is hard to follow. The cast is tremendous together. The sets are great. Overall, it’s awesome.
Hoping Episodes 5 & 6 stick the landing! pic.twitter.com/nC3Oi7OXGe

Jamie Jirak from Phase Zero:
I had a blast at the #Loki launch event. I only stayed for the first episode, because I want to remain a woman of the people on @PhaseZeroCB, but I LOVED IT. The direction and cinematography blew me away. I missed Tom and Owen so much. Ke Huy Quan MVP!! pic.twitter.com/bvrsEKLAG8

Erik Davis from Fandango:
I LOVE #LokiS2! I’ve watched the first 4 episodes & #Loki continues to be my favorite MCU show. This season has a more frantic pace to it, which keeps tensions high the entire time. Still brainy & weird w/ great chemistry among its cast. Ke Huy Quan is a big scene stealer of… pic.twitter.com/GaJd4HIOzq

Erik Swann from Cinema Blend:
He Who Remains is gone, but #Loki remains must-see TV!
I've seen Season 2's first four episodes, and they're just as kooky, charming, funny and sweet as one would hope. Eric Martin takes on EP duties and skillfully builds on the show's mythology. Fans are in for a wild ride. pic.twitter.com/1AYmo6BFW4

Jenna Anderson from ComicBook:
#Loki Season 2 is, by far, my favorite thing Disney+ has released this year. The cinematography is outstanding, and the cast does a great job of carrying what could be a very overwhelming plot. It’s not flawless, but I dig it. pic.twitter.com/xjsS0qyX9u

Alex Zalben from Decider:
I have some issues with #Loki Season 2 (based on the first 4 eps). Direction isn't as strong, it feels a little more like TVA: The Series Featuring Loki, the Jonathan Majors of it all.
But it's still a blast to watch, and Ke Huy Quan is the perfect addition to the cast. pic.twitter.com/07f4yPtcCG
