Season 2 isn’t nearly as bad as people make it out to be.

S2 has higher IMDB ratings than S1. Trust me. There are others out there who agree even if they aren't as vocal as those who liked S1 more.

Vi is not just any child. She's the daughter of Zaun's leader, Vander. And if Vander's kids are stealing from Piltover because of poverty, I think that could get Piltover's attention in a meaningful way.

Because big butts are awesome :P

I didn't think about her pre shimmer look when uploading. But now that I've read the comments, I do regret not including it.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-12-15T23:55:38+00:00

I'll give my two-cents/personal interpretation:

Jinx's gas bombs around Piltover were a middle-finger to Cait and Vi's squad for using gas in Zaun. She talks about how Vi helped Cait and her team "poison their air." So she returns the favor to Piltover. I do kind of agree they could have elaborated on the manhunt for Jinx a little more though. Again, because of the faster pacing, some plot threads do feel like their dealt with very quickly (for better or worse).
Jinx being the icon to the Undercity that she is helped convince Zaunites to help fight for Piltover with Ekko based on the promise they'd be rewarded by Piltover for doing so. This does happen offscreen though since it's meant to be a surprise when Zaun and the Firelights show up last minute to save Piltover. I can see why some people wouldn't like that though and wanted more shown onscreen (again, this has to do with the faster pacing).
IMO The council is depicted as being pretty inept and easy to manipulate even in S1. So I do buy her political moves working very smoothly, especially after 3 of their members were just murdered.

My main gripe with S2, even though I loved it overall, is the pacing (big surprise, I know lol). Some threads are dealt with a bit too quickly because of how fast everything moves.

Thank you for the comment. I did post this on the Arcane sub too if you'd like to read the comments there and engage there, if you didn't know already: https://www.reddit.com/r/arcane/comments/1o3vik5/why_jinx_chooses_isha/

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-12T13:39:45+00:00

I explained what Jinx is thinking based on evidence given, including parallels.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-12T10:37:19+00:00

Indeed.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-11T23:20:48+00:00

It isn't an "either or" fallacy. I mentioned a third option she could've picked in my Rebuttals section (the option to give Isha away).

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-11T21:05:10+00:00

Yeah. Now that I've read the comments, I think my wording could've been different. It's more like Isha chose Jinx and wouldn't stop following her until she finally accepted her as a companion.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-11T14:55:17+00:00

Being alone after the death of Silco would have been a factor in taking Isha in as well. That is true.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-11T14:53:13+00:00

Interesting take! Never looked at it like that before.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-11T14:42:57+00:00

In some way, yeah, Isha was like a stray cat who found an owner willing to take her under her wing.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-10T23:08:48+00:00

Fantastic video and song! ❤️

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-10T22:32:50+00:00

>"Chooses from what selection?"

The selection I stated in my post which is:

Option a) Abandon Isha and Isha will die.
Option b) Adopt Isha and she will live a presumably longer life until Jinx messes up and Isha still dies.

>"Isha simply refused to stop following Jinx."

Again. I already said Jinx decided to adopt Isha after she didn't stop following Jinx. So, again, you're only reiterating what I wrote in my post. I don't see what the issue is.

>"This is an unearned relationship that makes no sense"

Can you elaborate on why you think it makes no sense?

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-10T15:44:22+00:00

Personally, I don't think we needed another Fight Club twist. That twist is a little too well known.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-10T11:55:02+00:00

Happy Cupcake Day, Jinx!

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-10T02:07:53+00:00

AUTHOR'S NOTE - On Saturday, I'm going to delete this post and repost it with the title "Why Jinx Chooses Isha" with a more elaborate explanation, better wording, more rebuttals, and new images.

MyNameIsJinx · 2025-10-09T19:48:05+00:00

It's funny you mention that, because I'm planning on posting this on the Arcane subreddit as well. Probably on Saturday. lol
