What about Kahhori?

There was such hype around this character when she debuted in What If? season 2, she had pretty good response from a number of fans, she then got her own comic series and there were even rumors about her appearing in live action.

But now you rarely hear anyone talk about her let alone mention her name, so what happened?

Nothing has happened with her character since then, so why would she still be relevant to fan theories/speculation beyond just based desires?

BridgerRT572026-01-18 19:10

it’s just this. i really enjoyed her episode and the character in general but there wasn’t much else to keep me guessing on where her character may go. i’d love to see marvel bring her back in some capacity

dagnabbitk2026-01-18 19:05

I wonder how many dangling threads/characters there are in the MCU at this point lol

Ohwerk822026-01-18 19:09

The limit does not exist

Enough to make a whole shirt lol

Realistic_Analyst_262026-01-18 20:25

This one isn’t even dangling. It was a one-off character and she served her purpose in What If

ReturnoftheBoat2026-01-19 08:01

Why bother fleshing anyone else out when Captain Carter is the greatest most interesting and most powerfullest super hero ever, for reasons.

baltinerdist2026-01-18 20:37

They’ll at some point make a follow up series to “What If?” called “Wait, Who’s That Now?”

Smokey_16_982026-01-18 19:08

She was cool

WeirdIndividualGuy2026-01-18 21:19

I thought she was neat

nmak062026-01-19 13:20

Potato.

MajorTurn68902026-01-18 19:09

I feel like there just isnt time for her to enter live action at the moment. Doomsday already has a huge cast and enough heavy lifting to do. I could see her being in something live action eventually though

HackDaddy852026-01-18 19:22

Secret Wars she might appear. But likely just in a cameo type role.

SailorET2026-01-18 20:04

I wouldn't mind her and Byrdie showing up in a 5-second clip of parts of the multiverse at stake.

HackDaddy852026-01-18 20:11

Anything for more Natasha Lyon in my opinion!

MajorNoodles2026-01-19 00:08

Which would be kind of weird because both Natasha Lyonne and Devery Jacobs have also played live-action MCU characters. Natasha was Rachel in F4 and Devery was Bonnie in Echo.

HackDaddy852026-01-19 00:24

Chris Evans has played multiple roles in the MCU, RDJ now is going to, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Alfre Woodard, Gemma Chan, Michelle Yeoh, Kenneth Choi… it’s not that unusual at all. Especially when they’re from different timelines.

JBTriple2026-01-18 20:59

I would *absolutely* mind anything at all relating to the god awful Darcy beastiality episode ever gracing my screen again.

BootsyBootsyBoom2026-01-18 22:24

Howard is sapient and can communicate. Their relationship is not at all bestiality.

evapotranspire2026-01-18 22:29

Right. He's really no different than any of the other various humanoid aliens we see in the MCU.

MajorNoodles2026-01-19 00:09

It's about as much bestiality as Starlord and Gamora.

JBTriple2026-01-18 22:35

Freak

Belteshazzar982026-01-19 23:04

Passes the Harkness test.

MajorNoodles2026-01-19 00:07

It's gonna be weird seeing her in live action unless they recast. Her voice actress played Bonnie in Echo.

HackDaddy852026-01-19 00:21

There are multiple actors who have played multiple parts across the multiverse. And there aren’t that many of us who actually watched Echo anyway.

Meizas2026-01-18 19:11

I'd LOVE to see her in live action. I feel like they could tell some pretty powerful stories

Ourobius2026-01-18 19:23

To tell powerful stories they would have to take risks, and we all know how they feel about those.

firedforthatblunder2026-01-18 19:18

>There was such hype around this character when she debuted in What If

…there was?

BatmanForever232026-01-18 21:58

Not really honestly, outside of places like Reddit - even that was kinda sparse

EarthboundMan52026-01-19 11:22

The most hype I saw of her was when her character first leaked via one of those shitty Funko Pop Soda figures, before anyone knew anything about her. Never heard a soul talk about her once her episode actually aired.

CaptHayfever2026-01-18 19:18

She's in a weird liminal space between realities, both IRL and in-story. She's an MCU-original character, but she explicitly doesn't exist in the main timeline, only in What If. She could show up in one of the big multiverse crossovers that are approaching, though, especially since she's a member of the Guardians of the Multiverse. She doesn't have any loose plot threads of her own to tie up right now, though.

Neveronlyadream2026-01-18 19:54

She really is in a weird space. Putting her in live action assumes everyone watched What If. If they didn't, they're going to be confused. If Disney decides to explain who she is again, the people who watched What If will be annoyed.

If they really wanted to fold her into the live action side of the MCU, introducing her on a show a lot of people were going to skip was a bad idea. I think it was still in the space where they were positive everyone was going to watch anything MCU related.

CaptHayfever2026-01-18 19:58

Yeah, & I don't think they actually do plan to fold her into the live action side, at all, or they would've cast a voice actress who looks more like her physically (or drawn her to look more like Devery Jacobs).

Neveronlyadream2026-01-18 20:00

I think it was mostly speculation and wishful thinking, because it's only ever been rumors. I think people assumed because she was so prominent on What If that they must be hyping her up to use in live action.

I honestly don't know where she'd fit in unless they bring that whole gang in for something. It's too confusing to have her and just her appear out of context.

UncreativeTeam2026-01-19 01:29

>Devery Jacobs

Whoa, didn't realize that she had two different MCU roles (this and in Echo)

CaptHayfever2026-01-19 04:50

And they came out just a couple weeks apart, too!

DUNG_INSPECTOR2026-01-18 20:29

> If they didn't, they're going to be confused.

Why would they be confused? They introduce new characters all the time in their movies, Kahhori would be no different.

Neveronlyadream2026-01-18 20:30

[deleted]

DUNG_INSPECTOR2026-01-18 20:41

I'm sorry, but that's silly. Why would any get annoyed by a minute of explaining who she is. Did you get annoyed when they explained who Tony Stark was?

Neveronlyadream2026-01-18 20:48

You're missing my point.

She was already introduced. All of that work was done, but at least half the audience has no idea who she is. So they'd have to *re-introduce* her for the other half who has no idea who she is.

And I wouldn't be personally annoyed, but people get annoyed when a movie retreads ground they're already familiar with. Like showing the Waynes or Uncle Ben being gunned down all over again.

DUNG_INSPECTOR2026-01-18 20:54

You're acting like they would have to spend half a movie introducing her.

MX24192026-01-18 19:20

What IF fell off that's the problem. This series was ok to begin with but the second season was so focused on Peggy that it really didn't get a chance to develop the series as a whole and I like Peggy when she got her chance to shine but it was the wrong decision. I liked Kahhori's introduction but she becomes a nothing burger. Marvel didn't promote the series enough and not enough merch for this series. I want to see Kahhori more in the future but the problem is the writing. The animated series of the MCU as of recent outside of X97 doesn't make any noise. They need better writers and it can't just live off the MCU name.

EarthboundMan52026-01-19 11:25

Fell off from a 5/10 to a 2/10

MX24192026-01-19 15:42

I would bump it up to a 3.5/10. I only liked 7 episodes in total. Everybody has their own opinion but I only liked a small amount of episodes out of 3 seasons then that's a problem.

HackDaddy852026-01-18 19:24

It’s been barely over a year since her last appearance. She could potentially show up in Secret Wars. And would be nice if she was moved into the main timeline post Secret Wars.

TorontoDavid2026-01-18 19:32

I hope to see her again.

Skaman0072026-01-18 20:10

I wish her powers where more unique, but I quite liked her episode.

KlausKinki772026-01-18 20:46

Maybe they will continue What If...!? at some time and we will see what happened to the Guardians of the Multiverse. Would be really cool. And we still don't know what happened to Captain Carter, did she become a cosmic being/entity?

evapotranspire2026-01-18 22:31

I thought it was relatively clear that Captain Carter had to sacrifice herself at the end.

taquitosmixtape2026-01-18 20:51

She really should get a movie tbh, it’s a great opportunity for indigenous representation

Who’s the bigot downvoting this? lol grow up

evapotranspire2026-01-18 20:52

I loved Kahhori, both in What If and in her special comic issue, and I hope to see her again!

richard-5642026-01-23 16:51

I didn't know she made it to the comics! That means her, Phil Coulson and Madisynn are the few that made the crossover from starting out in the MCU?

evapotranspire2026-01-23 17:27

That's right! She joins an elite club of awesome characters.

joeesmhoo2026-01-18 21:24

I mean I thought she was cool but you have to realize the general public doesn’t care about her. She’s not putting butts in seats come doomsday. We’re the hardcore fans on here lol

odiin17312026-01-18 22:36

What if Kahhori reshaped the world?

Blanchimont2026-01-18 22:51

Doomsday and Secret Wars are already set to be _packed_ with characters as is, so I don't expect Kahhori to show up anytime soon. If she does transfer over to live action or another series, I expect it to be post Secret Wars.

richard-5642026-01-23 16:49

Secret Wars would make the most sense, especially if they're going to keep the same version of her from What If.

blackbutterfree2026-01-19 03:31

Ooh, I would love to see her in Doomsday. I wonder if they'd use the same actress that did her voice? I know she plays cousin Bonnie in Echo, but recycling actors has never stopped the MCU before.

And Kahhori is a Watcher now, so she'd definitely be there to witness something as momentous as the end of the entire Multiverse.

uncleben852026-01-19 04:41

She's pretty dope in Marvel Strike Force ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

But in all seriousness, a live action variant of her would be cool to see, and while the episode was polarizing (I liked it), I'd love to see a live action version of Byrdie, too. With speculation of Captain Carter being in Secret Wars, I hope it's a full on live-action version of the Guardians of the Multiverse, even if they are only a small part of the film.

Madmonkeman2026-01-19 04:50

I really want to see her in more MCU stuff but it probably won’t happen. She’s a really cool character.

Grayx_28872026-01-19 04:57

shinra11112026-01-19 06:22

They would need an actress for her first unless you want her to appear in cartoon style in Doomsday a la Roger rabbit?

Beautiful_Finger45662026-01-19 06:31

I liked her, but let's be honest... she's an original character introduced when Marvel still focused on DEI and when Native American culture was the hot new thing (KotFM, Reservation Dogs, etc)

Times have changed, and Marvel knows she won't put butts in seats... especially since Echo bombed

Iamjaykrishnan2026-01-19 08:50

Honestly this was the only good thing in season 2, then they ruined it in finale and season 3

EarthboundMan52026-01-19 11:17

>such hype

So we're just lying now?

Bolt_9952026-01-19 23:30

What hype?

Viper_Visionary2026-01-21 21:15

I find it hard to believe people were hyped for her at all. She's not a bad character, but I think her appearance in the Captain Carter show soured people's idea of anything from that show appearing in live action.
