*I honestly love how more casual Khonshu become throughout the Series. At first he was something straight out of a ghost movie but by the end he was straight up wearing a 3 piece suit in a limo!!*

[marshadow]

Khonshu was one of my highlights of the show, with his satisfying voice and fight scene was top tier

[GigaChadTheth]

Props F. Murray Abraham for giving his godly voice to khonshu, I can't come up with a better voice than his!

[DeividManuRos]

Already missing Moon knight Wednesdays 😑...
One of the best shows on Disney plus
We need a season 2 of Moon Knight. We need more of Jake Lockley.

Ammit's godly design was brilliant. Saba Mubarak who is the voice actress of Ammit was also perfect casting for this role. Her voice was just so deep, powerful, regal, sensual, and petty. Saba couldn't have done a better job, but I low-key wish we could have seen more of Ammit lol

[qreyscha]

I actually love ammit's design. It's really cool how they did the hair/tail. I also loved khonshu's design. I loved how he speaks without his mouth moving but somehow it doesn't look weird at all.

Taweret was the cutest...
But Khonshu was everything 😩❤️

[elirien]

I really, really REALLY hope they do a second season. The last episode felt like they were just getting started!

[DuhBla]

Honestly, I'm actually pretty happy with Tawaret's concept because she reminded me so much of Gloria from the Madagascar animated film. Her bright, cheery and witty personality is definitely very fitting.

[walealma]

Lets just give it to Oscar Isaac ..Who really perfected every alter he has to play..What a legend he is

[sohaibmalik]

Khonshu is a grandson of Gaea. And Gaea is a sister of Chthon. And in MOM Wong mentioned Chthon. And we have already seen Khonshu. So I am sure elder gods are near. They are coming.

[cashordeals]

Because he understands the power of drip

[David]

I really hope marvel gives us at least 8 episodes next season we better get another season cuz this was by far the best mcu show and I always wanted moon knight to get his own show or movie and hopefully he gets both and marvel just keep switching it up with him

[candidbayproductions]

I always figured he looked different due to being outcast/"forgotten" by the other gods yet not confined to the ushabti. While Ammit's confinement might have preserved her form despite ostracism by both the Ennead and humanity, Khonshu's appearance could have withered to reflect his fading into obsolescence (hence the codependency on/obsession with his avatars, as he's actually pretty insecure in his need to stay relevant).

[lokaster]

for me, this is the best show that Disney has made till now and without disrespecting the others. this show has everything well-done nothing feels forced or propagandistic I think you can identify with the characters without being Egyptian or having two personalities, in conclusion, a really enjoyable show and I think this should be an example for others to come, i want more of this please.

[raymelmalainfluencia]

This show is a gift in all aspects. The team blew it out of the park.

[goated]

Moon Knight is the one of the few Marvel shows that's worthy of rewatching every single Episode Marvel got a masterpiece with this one let's goo🔥🔥🔥🖤🐐💯

[Bonzer_Dot]

I loved the way that they introduced khonshu with the hallway scenes.

[coolguy]

wow the thought they put into the emotions are amazing

[sauce]

The thought of a guy like Khonshu being in broad daylight always looked weird in my head but they made it look natural in the show somehow
