SPOILERS for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, What If...? Season 3, and any MCU TV/Film released up to June 2025.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was first released in late 2022.

The series Ironheart, featuring Riri Williams who first debuted in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, releases on June 24, 2025.

With the exception of What If...? S03E05 "What If... the Emergence Destroyed the Earth?", we haven't seen Riri Williams in ~2.5 years.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is also just a great film.

I totally see what you're saying, that the conclusion of Shuri's arc doesn't feel as organic as it could.

I think the movie just changes its frame of reference, or rather Shuri does. Her redemption moment is her deciding that she's not Killmonger in Black Panther; she's T'Challa in Civil War. That final scene is parallel to when her brother caught up with Zemo in Siberia and showed mercy, and her decision to do the same is how she honors her brother.

It wasn't perfect, but it couldn't be without Chadwick Boseman.

That's a fair point, although T'Challa gets to see Iron Man, Cal & Bucky fight, which I think is a powerful "Oh shit" moment.

I think instead of Shuri & Namor fighting solo they should have been part of the main battle. Then Shuri could have at least seen the war/destruction around her and that could have been the catalyst.
