While the fifth episode of Miss Marvel has just been put online today on Disney +, revealing a little more about the issues that will push Kamala Khan to surpass herself, some are already starting to make some small assessments. By going to the Rotten Tomatoes site, we learn that it is simply the highest rated series in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, even ahead of Avengers Endgame, WandaVision or even the first Iron Man. To date, Miss Marvel has posted a nice 96% from the press, while the opinion of viewers has risen to 81%. The ratio between journalists and the general public is therefore not far off and proves that the original approach was able to please. Between an original artistic direction, a neat staging and a plot that does not drag, Miss Marvel amazes and surprises, while the hype around the series is clearly at its lowest.
Indeed, between a lower popularity than the other superheroes of the MCU, the fact that it is a teenager with a strong implication of the Muslim religion and the Pakistani culture, the themes are indeed perhaps- be less universal in the world of masked and pantyhose heroes. This is probably the reason why Miss Marvel is the least watched series on Disney+. Indeed, only 775 American households watched the first episode of Miss Marvel in the 000 days following its release. A figure lower than other series such as Loki which holds the record with 5 million American households, or even Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Moon Knight which attracted 2.5 million households each, while it is 1,8 million American households for WandaVision. The new ratings for Miss Marvel have not been updated, so it's impossible to know if there was a resurgence after episode 1,6. We'll keep you posted.
