1
If you think Doctor Strange's spell erased Peter Parker from everyone's memory, you're wrong.
2
While Strange's spell was meant to wipe Peter Parker from existence, it has a loophole so big that Marvel quietly hoped you'd forget it.
3
Because the spell had far more exceptions than anyone realized, and the clues have been hiding in plain sight across the movies and the shows this entire time.
4
Today, I'm breaking down part 2 of every single character that still remembers Peter Parker, proving he isn't nearly as alone as you think he is.
5
Loki Loki is the most special case on this entire list, because he doesn't just remember Peter Parker.
6
He is the only one who knows Strange casted a spell to make everyone forget Peter.
7
But let's start with the basics.
8
Just like I explained in my last video, when Strange first attempted the memory -erasing spell, he said something very specific.
9
Not the universe.
10
Not the multiverse.
11
The world.
12
And here's where things get interesting.
13
Loki wasn't even in the 616 universe at the time of the spell.
14
The Loki we knew, the Earth, 616 Loki, was already dead, killed by Thanos in Infinity War.
15
The Loki that survived was a variant who escaped with the Tesseract during the time heist, branching off into a completely different timeline.
16
From there he was captured by the TVA, and spent the majority of his existence there across both seasons of his series.
17
And for those who don't remember, the TVA exists outside of space and time entirely.
18
Strange's spell couldn't reach him even if it tried.
19
But here's where things take a wild turn.
20
At the end of the Loki series, he became the god of stories, a being who holds every timeline in the multiverse alive simultaneously.
21
He sees all of it.
22
Every branch.
23
Every version of every life.
24
Every consequence of every decision ever made across the entire multiverse.
25
Which means Loki doesn't just know who Peter Parker is.
26
He sees exactly what strange spell took from him.
27
He watches Peter navigate a world where nobody remembers his name, completely alone.
28
And Loki is the only being in existence who fully understands the weight of that isolation.
29
He doesn't just remember Peter.
30
He witnesses him every single day.
31
But the next character on this list is someone much closer to home.
32
Someone who met Peter face -to -face, formed a real connection, and is now back on Earth with no idea that everyone around him has forgotten who Peter is.
33
Star -Lord.
34
As we know, Star -Lord and the Guardians, with the exception of Rocket and Groot, met Peter Parker for the first time in Infinity War.
35
And while that encounter didn't exactly start smoothly, by the end of it something unexpected happened.
36
The two Peters found common ground, talking movies, sharing a wavelength, forming the kind of instant connection that doesn't need much time to feel real.
37
They were friends.
38
Brief, unfinished, but real.
39
And just like Nick Fury in Captain Marvel, Star -Lord was nowhere near Earth when Strange cast the spell.
40
The Guardians were traveling across the galaxy.
41
Something Thor love and thunder quietly confirms.
42
The spell never reached Peter Quill.
43
But here's the detail everyone is overlooking.
44
At the end of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.
45
3, Star -Lord made a decision that changes everything.
46
He went back to Earth to reconnect with his grandfather.
47
And it appears he decided to stay.
48
For the first time in years, Peter Quill is on Earth, and Marvel has already promised he will return to the MCU.
49
What nobody considered is what that return actually means.
50
Star -Lord remembers Peter Parker.
51
He's on Earth, and he's one of the few people in the entire world who could walk up to Peter, say his name, and mean it.
52
Not as Spider -Man, not as a hero.
53
Just as someone who remembers who he is.
54
Marvel didn't bring Star -Lord back to Earth by accident, and his reunion with Peter Parker might be closer than any of us expected.
55
Thor, and this one is almost too easy, because Thor wasn't just off -planet when the spell was cast.
56
He was literally traveling alongside the last character I just mentioned.
57
Ever since the end of Endgame, Thor handed New Asgard to Valkyrie and took off with the Guardians of the Galaxy, roaming the cosmos far beyond the reach of strange magic.
58
And he didn't return to Earth until Love and Thunder, months after the events of No Way Home.
59
But did Thor even know Peter Parker?
60
Absolutely.
61
Like most of the Avengers, Thor met Peter during the final battle in Endgame, and again at Tony Stark's funeral.
62
And that second meeting matters more than people realize.
63
Because the funeral wasn't a battlefield.
64
It was a quiet, personal moment where every Avenger was present, aware, and united in grief.
65
The kind of moment where you remember every face.
66
Thor remembers Peter Parker.
67
He just doesn't know yet that everyone else has forgotten him.
68
But what happens when the spell meets someone who doesn't need distance?
69
Because their mind alone makes them completely untouchable.
70
Professor X.
71
Now, let's be real.
72
Doctor Strange's spell wasn't technically designed to reach Charles Xavier.
73
He's from a different universe entirely.
74
And, as far as we know, he has never met Peter Parker.
75
But that's exactly what makes this case so interesting, because Xavier doesn't need to have met Peter to know who he is.
76
This case works on two completely separate levels, and either one alone is enough to put him on this list.
77
First, the sheer power of his mind.
78
Strange's spell was designed to sweep across consciousness and erase a single person from every memory it touched.
79
But Charles Xavier is the most powerful telepath on the planet.
80
His psychic presence is so vast that his mind isn't just protected, it's a fortress.
81
So even if the spell reached him, it wouldn't find what it was looking for.
82
Xavier's psyche works the same way a wave hits a mountain.
83
It doesn't erase.
84
It breaks apart.
85
But here's the second truth.
86
And this one is even more unsettling.
87
Even if the spell somehow reached Xavier's universe, and he was indeed affected, it wouldn't matter.
88
Because Charles Xavier doesn't need to remember Peter Parker.
89
The moment he connects to any mind that has ever interacted with Spider -Man, he can peer past the magical blind spots, access the collective consciousness, and reconstruct the truth in seconds.
90
The spell creates a gap in human memory.
91
Xavier reads human memory for breakfast.
92
The moment Xavier steps into Earth 616, he will know exactly who Peter Parker is.
93
Strange spell was never built to stop a man who can reach in any mind on Earth
94
and simply find the truth again.
95
But as powerful as Professor X is, there is one final character who doesn't just break the rules of the spell.
96
He breaks the rules of the entire multiverse.
97
Deadpool.
98
If you want the ultimate exception to Doctor Strange's spell, we have to talk about Deadpool.
99
See, Loki might sit at the center of the multiverse, but Deadpool sits above the writer's room.
100
Because Wade Wilson breaks the fourth wall, he isn't just aware of what happens inside the MCU.
101
He watches the movies with us.
102
He knows the scripts.
103
He knows the reshoots.
104
He knows the studio politics.
105
Doctor Strange can wipe the minds of every living being in Earth -616, but he can't wipe a contract between Sony and Disney.
106
Wade knows exactly who Tom Holland is.
107
He knows exactly what happened in No Way Home.
108
And the evidence is hiding in plain sight in Deadpool and Wolverine.
109
When Wade walks in a happy Hogan's office, Peter's face on the shelf is covered by an Iron Man mask.
110
Not a blur.
111
An Iron Man mask.
112
Think about what that actually means.
113
A blur means the face isn't there.
114
But a mask?
115
The face is still underneath it.
116
Which means when Deadpool looks at that photo, he can see exactly who it is.
117
The mask only hides it from us.
118
Not from him.
119
The magic worked on Wade's reality.
120
But it can't stop a man who watched No Way Home in the cinema like the rest of us.
121
It can't stop his meta -awareness.
122
Which means Deadpool might be the only character in the entire multiverse who still remembers Peter Parker for one simple reason.
123
He read the script.
124
And that's the truth Marvel never said out loud.
125
Peter Parker isn't forgotten, not completely.
126
Across realities, there are still people who remember him.
127
And if you want part 3, comment part 3 so I know you're ready for the next chapter.
128
But this is only half the story.
129
If you want to see the other characters who slipped through the cracks of Strange Spell, Click the video on screen right now and watch part one.
130
It's essential to understanding the full picture.
131
I'll see you there.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
