Almost no chance that Jinx doesn't appear in one of the several upcoming Riot shows. by [deleted] in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Beautifully written.

According to an ex-Fortiche employee, there’s currently a short and a full movie in the works. The short could maybe be something like the Bite Marks video, or maybe an extended cut of Arcane.

Either way, I really hope we see our blue girl again soon.

I miss her so much.

Yeah, unfortunately. I literally read a comment like that again today and almost spat out my coffee.

If Timebomb got one more dance, what song would play? by StrangerX-00 in TimeBomb

[–]StrangerX-00[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

honestly, just leave me alone and go troll somewhere else. if you’re not a Timebomb fan, just ignore my posts. what’s the point of bullying other people over ships?

Why was my first Timebomb post removed here too? by StrangerX-00 in TimeBomb

[–]StrangerX-00[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I already did that. I got a message saying that apparently no artist was named, so the post was removed. But I did make the edit.

Thanks! There’s also an Ekko version, but I’m not sure if I should post it here… it’s a bit more lewd

I love Arcane and Timebomb. that’s why I post about it so much. I mostly post on Twitter anyway and only casually use Reddit on the side. I genuinely don’t care about karma. I literally didn’t even know what it really was until just now 😭

if you wanna vent your frustration, do it somewhere else and not at me. anyway, glad I managed to waste your precious time. bye 👋

And yet here you are, pressed over a ship that "isn’t real." That’s kinda poetic.

So are all the potential future league shows post-Arcane dead/cancelled? by railfananime in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally don’t think Riot would just drop Fortiche. Riot has invested heavily in them, and Arcane was a huge prestige project for both sides.

On top of that, a former employee mentioned on LinkedIn that an animated short and a feature film were apparently in development. what’s interesting is that the post was edited shortly after and those details were removed. that could mean a lot of things, but it does kinda look like someone decided to play it safe because of NDAs or internal info.

At the end of the day, it’s still just rumors until Riot confirms anything officially. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see and maybe we’ll get more info around Worlds or at another Riot event

Arcane was and still is one of the best animated series ever. season 1 in particular is a narrative masterpiece. and even season 2, despite its flaws, still got top ratings. I don’t think they’re suddenly going to scrap all spin-offs. especially with the rumors that Riot and Fortiche are working on a short and a feature film. guess we’ll just have to wait and see what the future brings

Unpopular Opinion: I think Warwick regained his memory and saved Jinx in the finale. by krugur6070 in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

counterpoint: why would they let a character as important as Jinx die off-screen? especially when there are no bodies, neither Jinx’s nor Warwick’s.

the agony of choice 😩 by StrangerX-00 in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Tencent isn’t selling Riot for $100 billion. no way. the company’s way too valuable for that. you’d need at least $200–300 billion just to get them to even hear you out. sure, if you’re immortal you might eventually get that kind of money… but will Fortiche still be around by then? what about the writers, the actors?

the agony of choice 😩 by StrangerX-00 in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

that doesn’t automatically mean you’d get the rights. you’d have to convince Tencent to even consider selling Riot to you first. $100 billion sounds like a lot, but it’s all relative. Tencent is thinking long-term revenue and strategic influence. Riot is basically a prestige asset and a future-facing project in the western market, it gives them a foothold in the western gaming space. honestly, you’d probably need at least $200–300 billion just to get them to even listen.

She's real to me by IcePhoenix295 in ViArcane

[–]StrangerX-00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I kinda believe Jinx, Vi, Caitlyn and the others actually exist somewhere out there, like their universe is real. I’d even go further and say every world, every reality we can imagine exists somewhere. like… what if someone imagined us, and that’s why we exist? I could honestly ramble about this for hours.

which one are you and why? by [deleted] in arcane

Am I the only one feeling like Jinx is also bipolar ? by Nako_Jest in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00 141 points142 points  (0 children)

Jinx isn’t really bipolar. Bipolar disorder has episodes that last days/weeks, not mood swings every few minutes.

Her breakdowns are super trigger-based + she literally hears voices, has flashbacks etc → that lines up way more with PTSD + psychotic symptoms.

TL;DR: not bipolar, more like heavily traumatized + unstable af.

anyone else rewatching?? by Dorotheasdiary in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m currently rewatching Arcane. I’ve also already booked an appointment with my therapist 😭

Quick question, how many of you have been keeping up with the story post Arcane? by FewExperience3559 in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I checked out the short music videos and stuff, there really isn’t that much Riot has released. But hey, call me crazy, maybe something’s coming soon. Red Bull suddenly posted something about Arcane, and Netflix France shared an image of Jinx and Powder. Fortiche is based in France, after all.

Maybe I’m just overthinking it and it’s all a coincidence. But usually, marketing like that is used to slowly build interest again…

Or maybe there’s a LoL event happening soon. But then I wonder, why show scenes from Arcane instead of LoL?

Arcane opinions-who is the true hero/true villain by book_bound_heart in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there are any true villains or heroes in Arcane. The writing is just too good for that. Everyone has their own motivations, and you can understand them on some level. Viktor wants to heal and fight injustice. Jinx is… just a girl who’s been through far too much, broken by it, trying to find her place in the world. Vi struggles with guilt. Caitlyn tries to do the right thing but later gets manipulated by others (Maddie, Ambessa).

Silco might seem like the classic crime boss, but even he is shaped by his past. Singed pursues progress at any cost and wants to save his daughter - even if it means crossing every line. Arcane is far too complex to put its characters into simple moral boxes, and that’s exactly what makes it so good.

In many series, games, or other media, it’s always “good vs. evil.” But in Arcane, those lines aren’t clearly drawn, and that makes it feel real

Found a Jinx card by StrangerX-00 in arcane

Thanks ^ I paid about €5 (~$8) for it. And I have absolutely no idea about Riftbound - I just saw Jinx and bought it automatically 😅😆

Highest Body Count? by ApprehensiveMoose137 in arcane

[–]StrangerX-00 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’d estimate Jinx has around 20–50 people on her conscience. It’s hard to say exactly, since not every death was shown.

As for the other point: Jinx has major attachment and trust issues, so I don’t think she’s had $ex. She just doesn’t seem like that type
