WandaVision streamed its finale on Friday. Like many closing episodes of well-liked TV exhibits, it has divided audiences proper down the center. The finale resolved the battle of Wanda towards herself, psychological trauma and grief.
It was earlier revealed that Westview was created by Wanda as she couldn’t address Vision’s loss of life. She had identified solely tragedy all her life and had become a broken human being. She wanted remedy, as an alternative she selected to create this fantasy sitcom world (besides in contrast to most fantasies, this one was actual) by which she was dwelling her life in marital bliss in a suburb setting primarily based on basic sitcoms.
Wanda defeated Agatha Harkness, a really highly effective witch who was dwelling in Westview and made her entry within the present as a nosy neighbour. Wanda needed to destroy Westview as she had held hundreds of individuals hostage, and so they had been present process psychological torture attributable to being compelled to play sitcom characters and populate the city.
But destroying Westview meant that she additionally needed to let go of her sons and Vision, as their existence was tied to the world.
In the penultimate episode, Agatha had known as Wanda the Scarlet Witch, a being who’s destined to destroy the earth and who was thought-about a fantasy. While Wanda initially denied this, she embraced the position earlier than the top. Agatha, earlier than Wanda turned her into her character of nosy neighbour, warned that Wanda has completed a really harmful factor and warned of dire penalties. She additionally stated that Scarlet Witch was talked about in Darkhold, the Book of the Damned, probably the most harmful textual content associated to magic in Marvel Comics.
What does all that imply?
Wanda is now Scarlet Witch, and she will flip into her true type each time she needs. This signifies that she is probably going probably the most highly effective particular person on the planet. Agatha claimed she was stronger than even Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme, who is taken into account to be the best practitioner of magic on earth.
Wanda’s new position may create new issues. One of those might be a rift within the material of actuality — opening of the multiverse in different phrases. To introduce X-Men and Fantastic Four to MCU, exhibiting the existence of multiverse could be a easy method.

Multiverse is not going to spew out solely superheroes, it could additionally enable the introduction of nefarious forces like Chthon, a demonic Elder God who’s straight out of HP Lovecraft’s Cthulhu lore. Thanos would most likely fall on the ft of Chthon, who’s the grasp of Dark and Chaos Magic. In comics, he had possessed Scarlet Witch, resulting in terrifying outcomes. She was ultimately freed by Doctor Strange. Is Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness going to discover that?
That Wanda remains to be not utterly a power for good is obvious. She is an efficient particular person, however she remains to be to come back to phrases along with her grief. It is untimely to imagine that simply because she let Vision and her sons go, she is now a-okay.
We noticed within the end-credits that whereas Wanda is simply making tea, Scarlet Witch, which might be Wanda’s astral type, is perusing the Book of the Damned. Her function is to carry again her kids and Vision, and certainly we hear the cry of the twins, indicating that they’re alive someplace, in another universe or dimension.
The mid-credit scene had Monica speaking to a Skrull, posing as an FBI agent. He tells her that an “old friend” of Maria, Monica’s mom, desires to satisfy her. The Skrull makes use of the male pronoun he, which may imply both Nick Fury or Talos. Our bets are on Fury.
