Wakanda Forever Ending Was...Weird?

Am I the only one who genuinely did not like how Shuri and Namor becaming allies at the end?

I mean, he did kill her mom and I don't think anyone in their right mind, at least anyone I know, would just stop having hatred towards someone if they murdered one of their parents to become their ally.

Marvel movies are always going to be a mess because the director probably has a clear vision of what they want until the studio comes in and changes things up

This is everything Disney does. If they’d just let writers write and directors direct, everything would be 10x better. But execs start becoming writers and directors and everything makes no sense.

But if you were the ruler of a nation you might put aside your personal hatred if it benefits/saves your people from war. That was also the point of her seeing killmonger in her vision, she didnt want to be consumed with revenge and turn into him.

There was a clear parallel between Shuri's choice at the end of Wakanda Forever and her brother's choice at the end of Civil War. Both chose the greater good over personal revenge. While she wavered for a while, Shuri showed that she is much more like her brother than her cousin

Who are you and what does this even mean lol

E: Ah the anti Vax nutjob that got banned for being well an anti Vax nutjob, not too worried about your opinion

Void_Warden2026-01-21 17:43

Funniest thing is... they aren't banned? I'm not sure what they're on about

Void_Warden2026-01-21 17:44

Who are you and why do you seem to think you were banned?

She really spared him just to maintain peace. As M’Baku stated, killing him would radicalise his kingdom even more. The Talokan completely outnumbered the Wakandans. They probably all would’ve been wiped out without the peace.

HyruleBalverine2026-01-14 23:15

Exactly this! Killing him turns him into a martyr. Letting him live allows a chance for peace.

On one hand, I agree; but on the other, they needed their king and at some point, you have to stop the cycle of violence.

The whole death of Ramonda was a little sketchy. But Shuri story wise needed something to force her to take the lead.

poopeyethe2026-01-14 23:04

Thats why she is a hero and your “anyone in right mind” isnt

Heavy-Comment-25862026-01-14 23:05

I doubt she stopped hating him. She simply chose not let her pain corrode her people. If she killed him then she would've damned both nations.

TrueLegateDamar2026-01-14 23:07

Didn't Namor outright say he was just gonna fake it until Wakanda was in trouble and abuse their helplessness?

Weirder they considered it a victory when so many Wakandans died needlessly in a fight where they bizzarely disadvantaged themselves.

Agent92622026-01-14 23:07

I think they explained both sides fairly well. Shuri let go of her anger and with her moms blessing showed Namor who she was, a leader willing to put her anger behind her for her people and his. Namor was scheming for an ally in the inevitable event that the world turns on wakanda and they come to him for help.

NormalGuy34812026-01-14 23:10

Because she’s smart and not an emotional idiot

SadHumbleFlower272026-01-14 23:11

If she didn’t spare him, the Wakandans and Talokan would be at war and it’s clear the Talokan would win. A peace agreement was the only way for Shuri to keep Wakanda alive.

Vigz112026-01-14 23:19

It was less about a personal grudge and more about politics and the safety of her people

Remember T’Challa’s first appearance as Black Panther?

If not, here’s a short summary:
>The heir to the throne of Wakanda watches their parent be murdered in front of their eyes by the leader of a different country. They spend a good portion of their screen time after this event chasing not justice for the crime, but vengeance for the loss. Once they are finally in a position to take that vengeance they come to terms with their grief and choose the nonviolent path forward.

Sound familiar? The only real difference here is that Zemo didn’t have an army due to his whole country being bounced like a basketball. If he did have a powerful, loyal army like Namor did, they might’ve came to a similar deal.

Killing him would just escalate the Wakanda-Talokan war.

Almost like she’s leading a nation and has to put a personal vendetta aside

Stormik2026-01-15 13:13

As one as-it-turned-out-in-the-end-not-so-wise man once said "we only make peace with our enemy, that's why it's called making peace".

Aromatic-Cupcake48022026-01-15 13:56

T’Challa spared Zemo. Shuri spared Namor. Shuri’s journey in Wakanda Forever mirrors T’Challa’s. Vengeance consumed them and they knew when to stop, internal hatred is definitely there.
