Eyes of Wakanda recap
This animated anthology follows the Hatut Zaraze, Wakanda's secret agents, who travel the world to recover stolen vibranium. In 1260 BC Crete, Noni, a former Dora Milaje warrior, lets herself be captured to stop a rogue agent called the Lion, who has been abducting people and threatens to share Wakandan technology. During the Trojan War, the agent B'Kai fights alongside Achilles under the name Memnon and kills him to keep a vibranium relic secret. In 1400s China, the agent Basha steals vibranium from a statue in K'un-Lun and is followed home by Jorani, an Iron Fist, who takes it back. In 1896, during the battle of Adwa in Ethiopia, the agent Kuda and Prince Tafari try to recover a vibranium axe.
Eyes of Wakanda ending explained
A woman in armor stops Kuda and Tafari: the last Black Panther, from 500 years in the future, where Wakanda was destroyed by an alien enemy because of its isolation. She has come to make sure the axe is left in the world so a future king will see outsiders as allies. They return it, and the series ends years later with Erik Killmonger about to steal the axe from a London museum, the moment from Black Panther.
