"Embiggen!"
Being that this show is a part of the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe, there are bound to be plenty of awesome moments.

Trailers

    Trailers 
  • Controversy aside, Kamala's powers look properly epic as seen in the teaser trailer as she uses her constructs like stepping stones before it cuts to a scene showing her forming her signature elongated limbs.
    • Later promo material shows her using her powers to save a group of her classmates, again utilising her constructs like giant hands and holding up what appears to be a bus.


Episodes

    Episode 1: Generation Why 
  • The intro featuring Kamala’s visualization of the Avengers’ epic battle with Thanos, for its stylized and humorous depictions, all set to The Weeknd's Blinding Lights. She's shown uploading it to not-Youtube. Those are goddamn amazing production values for a 16 year old, and deserve way more than 2 views.
  • Speaking of which, the stylized visuals in Kamala's and Bruno's text messages, with them being a natural part of their respective environments.
  • In a Montage, Zoe hits Kamala in the face during a game of dodgeball. Immediately, Nakia storms up to Zoe and vehemently defends her friend.
  • While things end disastrously after Kamala first displays her newfound powers, she manages to wow the crowd with her appearance and still saves Zoe in the ensuing chaos.
  • Muneeba somehow was able to make matching Pakistan-flaired Dad and Daughter Hulk costumes overnight.

    Episode 2: Crushed 
  • A newly confident Kamala walks into her school after discovering her powers. This time she steals the ball from the Jerk Jock that tries to block her, corrects the teacher that keeps mispronouncing her name, and tells the two girls who are blocking her locker to move (while complimenting them on their relationship to defuse the tension).
  • Kamala's first act of heroism, saving a boy who fell out of her mosque's tower. Then taking down two EDITH drones as she evades Damage Control.
    • Kamala's increasing confidence. When she first steps out to reach the boy, she takes hesitant, careful steps on her hardlight constructs. When she sees him falling, she runs out towards him and catches him with a construct, and does the same thing again after he falls on it and they're both plummeting.
    • She doesn't manage to perfectly save the day; the boy falls and is injured, but without her he would have died. She might focus on the failure, but she did save his life.
    • Finally, she managed to catch the Mosque Shoe Thief! (He's wearing Nakia's stolen Versaces.)
    • While the EDITH drones aren't really in the best of hands, it's uplifting to see them back again. Dead or not, Tony Stark's legacy is still very much prevalent within the Marvel Universe.

    Episode 3: Destined 
  • A soon-to-be elected Nakia takes point on politely but firmly telling Agent Deever to come back with a warrant if she wants to search the mosque.
    • As the agents leave, Sheikh Abdullah asks them to take their shoes off next time.
  • Kamala gets into her first superhero fight. While she loses (only escaping because Damage Control bursts in while the villains were distracted by an unexpected vision), she keeps her composure at all times, keeping her enemies at bay through both wits and her powers.
    • Bruno also served as a distraction by throwing a present at the villains. Sure, he got injured, but that still takes guts.

    Episode 4: Seeing Red 
  • Kamala, having clearly gotten the hang of her powers, manages to hold her own quite well against the professionally trained and more experienced Kareem.

    Episode 5: Time and Again 
  • Kamala travelling back in time via the bangle to reunite her grandmother with her great-grandfather before the last train left.

    Episode 6: No Normal 
  • Muneeba giving Kamala her Ms. Marvel costume, symbolizing that she now fully accepts her daughter's point of view.
  • The skill and confidence of Kamala as she uses her powers to parkour across the city in style.
  • The mosque congregants all working together to save Bruno and Kamran from Damage Control.
    Sheik Abdullah: As you can see, this could take some time. Lucky for you, Rashid brought his yummy yummy chocolate chip cookies.
    Rashid: [offering a plate of cookies] The secret is nutmeg.
  • Kamala's clever plan to misdirect Damage Control when they invade the school.
    Nakia: So... we're gonna stop Damage Control with softballs?
    Kamala: No, we're going to stall Damage Control with softballs. And the real plan is Zoe.
  • Zoe's evolution from Alpha Bitch to Lovable Alpha Bitch, including utilizing her social media presence to alert the city of Damage Control's raid, ensuring a huge crowd that makes sure the DODC couldn't operate in the shadows.
  • The entire community rallies to Kamala's defense when Deever insists on barging into the school.
    • When they see the community rallying to Kamala, every single cop turns around in a protective line before Damage Control to show whose side they're on.
  • One word: "Embiggen." Kamala coming into her own to protect Kamran and her community from the DODC.
  • Agent Cleary telling Agent Deever in no uncertain terms that she has messed up and ruined the PR of Damage Control with her stunt and that she is fired.
  • As part of the epilogue, what do we see? We see Nakia leading a group of old-looking men and telling them what needs to be fixed in the mosque (presumably the badly-in-need-of-repair Women's Quarter). She is indeed a board member, and she is getting things done.
  • Bruno's Wham Line that sets up a new direction for the MCU: Kamala's genes are more of a mutation, complete with the X-Men: The Animated Series theme!
