    What really made me realize for the first time that Mr.World was actually Loki, is when he tells Technical Boy, “Trickery is what I do best”. It had never occurred to me up until that very moment, that Loki could have been Mr.World all along. It seems crazy naive in retrospect that hadn't crossed my mind considering how much Mr.World transforms into other people just like Loki.

Loki thrives on deceit and chaos, helping instigate the fight between the Old and New Gods so that the turmoil of battle will feed his own power. If the show does a season 4 i believe they will show this with Shadow being reborn as Baldur and teaming up with Tech Boy to stop them. Tech Boy is the strongest new God and a bridge between old and new gods imo

Like Bilquis said to Wednesday before "She was old in the desert before they sacrificed the first goat in his name" They fear Odin and the power he is known to wield. It all depends on where the writers go with it anyhow. But I believe he's more worried about the con man Wednesday having all that power at his disposal again. That's my take on it. Everyone can have their own opinion.

    I just miss Mad Sweeney. He was my favorite part and his story arc with Laura was the most compelling part to me. I normally hate dead wife, but she was actually tolerable and allowing herself to let down her walls and grow as a person and learn about living life. I never got the vibes she really cared about Shadow. Part of me wonders if she's some play on Persephone, who herself is potentially a weird revised version of a more powerful/mysterious diety, Despoina, given how she is so connected to the afterlife but can never really stay there. Going to the underworld then coming back, over and over again. In the Eleusinian Mysteries Hades is barely a footnote, more of a narrative uber driver to get Persephone into the Underworld, but Persephone has ALWAYS been a Goddess of Death/Afterlife/Underworld, so much so that her names "Kore, Persephone, and Despoina" are basically nicknames/psudanims because no one DARE temp saying her actual name. Kore meaning "girl, maiden" Persephone meaning "bringer of destruction" and Despoina being a formal courtly use of "Lady" like Lord. So.... *Dead Wife.*

    It's interesting how they're playing on Tech Boy's need to expand on his emotions and become more human. It definitely can refer to the progress of A.I. But part of me wonders if it's referring to the Singularity. The theoretical point of no return in the *_exponential growth_* of technological advancement, and we either get to a point or are revealed to ALREADY be at the point of _Everything being inside a Simulation._ Especially because they're leading us to believe Ragnarok is coming, Ragnarok's end of the world simultaniously being the Technological Singularity fits in wonderfully with the themes of old is new, new is old.

They basically gave it away when Laura 1)came back from the dead like no non-god could likely do, and 2)she could see Shadow's light and he could make her heart beat, showing that they do have some kind of special connection even though they very clearly were never really in love. I don't like them as a couple, so I hope that's not where this is going, but I hope she is his other half because it would make SO much sense. But then, if it mattered what I thought, Sweeney would not be dead, and he very much seems to be so...meh...

    Having read the book, I was surprised with the Technical Boy twist. I honestly can't recall what happened to him in Gaiman's novel. However, it makes sense to "capture" the God of Human Innovation. It would be like harnessing a massive source of power - a "Godhood battery", if you like. One could even say that Godhood is one of the most potent instantiations of human invention and innovation. I remember hearing old stories, probably apocryphal, that when the indigenous people of Terra del Fuego first heard and understood the word "God", first heard monotheism uttered in a single word, they ate the speaker (probably some dodgy missionary). They wanted to literally consume this innovation in Godhood. Apocryphal or not, I get the point. It's a hellava drug.

    The white buffalo is sacred in most native american cultures, it often heralds a new era of peace and knowledge. Usually the renewal of the indigenous people. In some indigenous cultures there are prophecies that the world will come to the edge of ruin, the birth of the white buffalo is the signifier that people will live on versus be destroyed. I think the flaming eyes were just eye candy. But the book talks about how shadow is part native although it doesnt go to heavy in his role in that community.

    Well done, sir. Season three didn't have as many truly transcendent moments as season one, but it was far more cohesive from beginning to end. It was well planned unlike season one which had enough problems that TPTB had to scrap an entirely filmed episode and come up with a new one on the fly to replace it (the Sweeney in early America episode). Neil Gaiman himself claims season one comes across as an anthology and there is truth to that. Season three also had easily the strongest Shadow as a character. Of course season two would rank.at the bottom understandably.

    Maybe because they are actually demi gods? They have human mothers. Honestly just a guess...who knows with this show anymore.

    Gods are nothing but Souls

    Why wouldn't they have souls? There's no evidence that they don't and plenty of evidence that they do. I'm not saying it makes sense, but in the universe of the show, they seem to have souls, or they're souls that grow bodies, or something like that. Czernobog said Odin was watching Shadow in the finale, and we know the dead Zoraya gave Czernobog a sign about the new gods in either 3x09 or 3x10. Sweeney's hoard was an extension of his psyche and something is still keeping it active, and Sweeney and Laura had some kind of astral sex experience in S2 which seemed to imply that their souls were interacting. We have no idea if their afterlife experience is the same as it is for humans, but they seem to live on after death in some way. And Shadow and Laura seem to be half human, i.e. born the traditional way and thus subject to a soulmates trope. (I do think this soulmates development is terrible writing, though, and hope it's a red herring.)
