Finally got around to watching WandaVision. In general, I'm okay with it.
I find it interesting that there appear to be some vague similarities between it and the Netflix MCU series. The actual credits (ie, the ones at the end of the show) bear a similar mood to the Netflix series' credits, and the [spoil]Whoops, halfway through we show you the ACTUAL villain![/spoil] thing is very much something we saw in Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and Defenders.
I just hope that [spoil]this 'true villain' doesn't go the way the others did, ie 'replace interesting villain with shallow, boring one.[/spoil]

The show is only going to be 9 episodes I believe. So there isn't really time for that MCU tv-series specific trope I think.

They could still blow it. After Cage and Defenders, I have a lot of faith in the ability of a show to turn on a dime.

Jeeeeez...[B]All-Rounder Meguru[/B] chapters 112 and 113 have some beautifully illustrated technical grappling. Easily as good as anything Teppu ever did, if not better.

Re. the end credits. Worth noting that some episodes have post-credit scenes.
That’s not a spoiler, just worth pointing out.

I need to go back, then. After I noted them NOT having post-credits, I didn't bother.

The most recent one definitely does.

eh, there's some pretty big differences here, for one they don't just introduce them out of nowhere halfway through the series, they're there from the start, also there's hints throughout the series that they're more than what they seem, and finally the[spoil] first "villain" isn't really a villain[/spoil]. So to me this isn't the bait and switch we saw in the netflix series, but a payoff that was actually built up to over the course of the series.

Absolutely. I'm using the phrase 'vague similarities' for a reason.
Might want to add spoilers, man.
Edit: coolness. ^_^

And I'm all caught up with Meguru. :( Right in the middle of a climactic fight, of course.
Curses.
