Exactly what I was thinking. She didn't know how much worse that it got. This show is the embodiment of the joke, "At least things can't get any worse!"
@@Rar830 not sure if youre being serious, but in the credits and in the 'bridging the rift' series there's two separate actors for her - a child actor and an adult actress respectively
Knowing what happens next is both a blessing and a curse. It's a curse because you know what exactly the person is going to realize the tragedy of it all. It's a blessing cause you know when the person is about to burst into tears.
I distinctly remember the first time I watched the first episode of Arcane. After the first scene was over, I thought: "Ok. This show managed to make me cry in under 3 minutes. Here we go."
So many little things in every scene. Just one example: in the first scene, after all the pain of their parents dying and Vander adopting them, the camera pans up away from the smoke and flames, and we see that Piltover is still gleaming, indifferent to the distruction.
Who knew that only 9 episodes of arcane can cost so much shocking and emotional moments. episode 3 and 9 was really intense and shocking and I was one of the most suspenseful shows I’ve ever watched
Man... Remember way back at the beginning, when "Oh, no - is that Mom??" actually still qualified as "emotional damage" in this show?? Ah, so innocent. Good times.
At the end when Jinx shot the rocket, I watched a separate video, just of that, and I read a comment saying that Jinx lived up to her name. They were about to get their independence, and she, well, jinxed it. Also this show is amazing, and these cliffhangers suck, especially the ending. The writers really know how to break us!
The deal was contingent on Silco giving them Jinx, in his dying breath he admitted he would never do it. The vote was pointless (which makes sense, the council apathy led to this whole mess. Too little, too late.)
@@turtlepope7802 Agreed, and it is a point that everyone misses. No jinx, no peace. And after that, with Silco dead there isn't anyone to enforce the Zaun part of the deal, so thats reason number 2 for the peace agreement to fail. The point of the council agreeing is to show that they were ready for the peace agreement, making them feel like it was over. Jinx hit them right when they were at their highest moment. You better believe that they will have no interest in peace in season 2. If any of them are alive.
@@Rwscienceguy My thoughts are that what Jinx did at the end, was coming nonetheless - Silco wanted a Nation of Zaun free of Topsiders, but at the same time, he really hated them. Pilltover would never let the Zaun be free of their influence. Jayce accepted the peace offering, just because he saw what war can do to people ( his people, more as Vi told him, that death of the child is nothing traumatic below) , but not because he thought they deserve it. Zaun is a chaos, even under Silco regime it was a mess. Jinx is just a byproduct of it, that's why Silco told her, she is perfect - she is an avatar of Zaun, his Zaun. Chaotic, broken, genius. What Jinx did, was her personal riot to Piltovers "You took everything from me, now I will take everything from you" and a epitome of Zaun, which is... Well " Fuck You. You dont know shit about us".
what broke me about the ending was the few frames of singed and his new experiment. Vander is Warwick confirmed. That will be traumatic to watch in season 2.
I love how Mel being into Jayce is her being Emotionally Damaged XD LOL her hopes ruined, dashed, that the Art would choose Jayce Also Elijah constantly being ruined by the cliff hangers is pretty funny, because it's so true...the cliff hangers in this show were the best, but the worst
30:34 this part gave me so much anxiety that I was shaking and my heart was pounding SO FAST that’s to show you how much that episode was suspenseful. And her reaction dude I felt so bad for her that was so freaking cruel (and funny cause she didn’t know It was a joke) but arcane why did you have to do that to the damn gay lady she was literally crying lol
It was a trip to share this show with you - you made it entertaining on a whole 'nother level. Look forward to your reactions to other stuff in the future- ESPECIALLY the next season of Arcane. 👍
Sandwiched between realizing that Powder goes by Jinx now and seeing that she has dolls of her dead friends in her lab, Elijah taking emotional damage from Mel putting her hands on Jayce's jacket. 😂
The cat was killed "fighting" an insane super powered rat. It was a good death. Clovis will be remembered. Cats name is Clovis that Ive decided. RIP Clovis, he was the best of us...
19:00 in you had me misty all over again. This series is art. Seriously. It’s high art. Amazing animation, amazing characters, and amazing writing. Powder makes me think of “joker” and his descent. Similar type of arc from sweet childlike innocence to insane.
This the most entertaining reaction I have EVER seen! I actually teared up along with you at the ending scene like I was the first time watching it lol.
There is a theory that Mel’s back metal peice (idk) is magic bc 1# it glows weirdly in that scene 2# she never took it off (if she can) even during sus time with jace 3# her arc isn’t finished and she is needed to complete season 2 Do with information what you will
@@DromeEntertainment Ow I hadn't thought about that yet. There is hope!🥺 Though even if there isn't one, I'm still happy with the making of series. I'll take any breadcrumbs I can get! Fingers crossed though.
The funny thing is that she didn't freak out when jinx called vi and cupcake her gf's but she did when vi called her cupcake. That's kinda weird because she was already saying that vi and cupcake are "girlfriends" and so maybe spoiled that this really happened
"How long until season 2 comes out" Just imagine. Just imagine MY ASS. LIKE. A MONTH AFTER THIS CAME OUT. I saw that at ending and I was like "NO." and I just restarted from episode one and rewatched it all over again. Just because my brain didn't want to process HOW FUCKING LONG IT TAKES to produce animate something like this. I can't even believe I have been a functioning human being since december 2021 and that we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I have rewatched this show so many times, and every single time by the end I'm fucking bawling. NOVEMBER IS STILL TOO FUCKING FAR AWAY.
@@bloodwire7152 I do not actually know anything about Karma. I do know Riot from time to time has changed their character's lores to fit the narrative of the new direction they want to take the game in.
@@chewbekkataco true, they had. But most of them were changes that made sense with the character. Karma is the spirit of Ionia, like the country personification that inhabits a person and move to another when that person dies, transfering the experiences of that person to the next, kinda like Raava from Avatar. Mel could've shielded the others, her clothes were shining and all that, but not by using Karma tho
@@bloodwire7152 Interesting, I will have to re read this later because it is currently going over my head. I like how you compared it to Raava. I hope that means you are a Legend of Korra fan. If not at least you have seen it. Thanks for filling me in. Like I mentioned I knew nothing about Karma. I have a pondering but I need to re read what you wrote and maybe the lore for Karma right from Riot before I suggest its possibility.
What a lot of people miss read is that Silco isn't a villian , his Anti-Hero a "Lawful-Evil" The people you think are good , are actually villians . Vender (Early)= Villain = (Chaotic-Good) Vender (Present) = Anti-Hero = (True Neutral) Jynx = Villain = (Cheotic-Evil) Silco = Anti-Hero = (Lawful-Good) Singed = Anti-Hero = (Chaotic-Neutral) Jays = Hero = (Lawful Good) Mel = Hero = (Lwaful-Good) Victor = Anti-Hero = (True Neutral) Caitlyn = Hero = (Lawful Good) Vi = Hero = (Natural Good)
i wouldn't call Silco a anti-hero yes a anti-hero line is blurry as fuck but I don't think he fit. yes he had a good base thought. piltover fucked zaun so making it independent was not bad. but he was total shit in how he did it. he isn't a good person. in general i wouldn't call any of them villain and hero. for many in Zaun i bet Silco was a hero. for many others a Villain
@@purpleguy319 He is on Anti-Hero! He isn't all bad! He has a whole following , his trying to safe poor by doing EVERYTHING HE CAN! Just like Arthas before he became in to Litch King... So he is Cheotic Good.... His willing to secrefice his own for better for his own people... his like SPARTAN type of mentality....! Secrefice your best men for your people and yourself.... if must... "Throw Newborns off cliff , because they would jsut drag the already struggling nation down"
1:43 literally same tho oml. I don't cry a whole lot but sad dog movies? literally deceased on the floor, in a depressed state for a week or longer, etc. DON'T TOUCH THE ANIMALS SMH
I truly pity all the people who watched this blind because I at least watched some of lore videos about the game characters and knew where they would probably end up I can't imagine what it was like watching it and thinking that Jinx could have a happy ending
Wrong. The deal for peace was "hand over Jinx or no peace", Jayce talked with them over the deal and they agreed to it by vote but still the main point is Silco to hand over Jinx...which he said he would never do that so "no peace" anyway
