I agree. Like I don't think it's a stretch to say people with powers have exsisted and various organizations like SHIELD just kept them on the downlow. I wouldn't mind maybe an event or something that explains a sudden awakening of the X-Gene, I'd take something as simple as the 2 snaps energy burst referenced in Endgame affected mutants and started activating X-Genes. But overall just drop mutants in, who tf cares.I really think Chan Ho Yin should logically be a mutant. He's based off a character from the comics who is a mutant and his powers were almost completely unexplained.

You bend someone long enough and they break! Poor little Chan Ho Yin may have believed your lies, but not Scorch!Scorch to S.H.I.E.L.D. Chan Ho Yin (Chinese: 陈浩然) was a super-powered individual on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s index who developed pyrokinetic powers. While working as a street magician, he was...marvelcinematicuniverse.fandom.com
Ray Johnson, who you may know as John Wraith from X-Men Origins: Wolverine, was referenced on WandaVision. He's a mutant character but we know nothing of him in the MCU.
Ray Johnson
Ray Johnson is an individual whose medical results were held by S.W.O.R.D. Ray Johnson underwent a medical examination conducted by S.W.O.R.D., the results of which were stored in the agency's files. While hacking through these files in search of answers on then Director Tyler Hayward's...
Of course, Sony's Spider-Man Universe has already introduced mutants into its continuity with Shriek. Madame Web is also a mutant. There's no reason to believe they aren't mutants so I'm assuming they are.
I really don't think we need a big explanation for mutants in the MCU. Just introducing them naturally like any other character is fine.

Some good info from SDCC today. Looks like Freshman Year kinda wrote themselves out of canonicity. Zombies is a continuation of the What If episode AND will be rated TV-MA which is pretty exciting. What If S2 will be next year. And S3 is greenlit

Hmm. I mean Daredevil could have gotten that costume between S1 and S2 of his show.
Or it could be a stylized version of his S1 costume.

Doctor Strange though. He shouldn't be a sorcerer when it takes place. Plus, Spidey has his classic suit somehow. Norman Osborn and Otto shouldn't meet Peter in the MCU before he meets their Earth-96283 counterparts.
Not to mention, Nico Minoru is in the show.

Also, for the timeline dates, Freshman Year (if you still want include it) and Zombies is 2024 and What If S2 is early 2023
Wouldn't freshman year be 2015?

It's definitely another earth. If the things Pro Bot mentioned wasn't enough to convince anyone, this tweet literally shows the Civil War scene with Norman Osborn instead of Tony.
I'll keep it in the timeline for now, in case there is a framing device set in the MCU, like in What If.

The only tie to MCU continuity the show has is Charlie Cox portraying a Daredevil variant right now.

Watch for traffic lights. Might be Earth-838.
There aren't a lot of ways this can still fit in the MCU (Time travel? Post NWH framing story? Maybe Peter has nightmares about lives in parallel universes?) but how about this: the whole first season it appears to be unrelated to the main MCU, apparent anachronistic appearances of Doctor Strange, Doc Ock, and all the rest, and then in the last episode Tom Holland pops in--and it turns out it's all been post NWH and we've been following a slightly younger clone of Peter this entire time. He's able to take on Peter's identity because Strange's spell made everyone forget the real Peter Parker. Stealth clone saga. 
Season 2 would be nuts.
Season 2 would be nuts.I think it's much cleaner if it's just an alternate universe. Especially since all the other animated shows are as well.There aren't a lot of ways this can still fit in the MCU (Time travel? Post NWH framing story?

So they lied when they said "The animated series follows Peter Parker on his way to becoming Spider-Man in the MCU", since it never was intended to be MCU canon.
Maybe plans changed and they figured it'd be easier and less restricting to just have it be its own thing.So they lied when they said "The animated series follows Peter Parker on his way to becoming Spider-Man in the MCU", since it never was intended to be MCU canon.

At least there's no bait for the X-Men '97 show
