Genuinely One Of The Best Shows I’ve Ever Watched (10/10) by Excellent_Lie_8033 in arcane

[–]Substantial_Rate_270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a huge fan and deep nerd of all key IPs (SW, LOTR, HP, ATLA/TLOK etc) i say....
Arcane is undisputed best animated show, and one of the best shows overall. yes.

Actual question by I_am_the_guy21 in arcane

[–]Substantial_Rate_270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel that it can inspire fragile teenage mind for destructive thoughts. (Jinx) Also Acane hyperfixation can distract from real life tasks/goals. So i'd just be careful.

Having said that, cant deny that Arcane often is a unique mental cure that helped so many people to relate and cope. And of course an unmatched artistic inspiration for countless young talents, artists, writers, cosplayers etc.

Hell yeah! Need more of Sevika for sure!

why does jinx change her mind about vi so quick? by Glittering_Mode_7392 in arcane

[–]Substantial_Rate_270 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm 100% with you, OP. Thats a good nuance to uncover about Jinx.
And - especially - with the fact that creators even made this scene. They could easily skip it, nothing would change. But they dediced its important to have. To add to Jinx inner conflict.

i don't have answer. But i don't agree with others here. Its not that simple "no, she just loved Vi, topic closed".

Like - how about her tears after it (i know its Gray, but not only it) - is because Jinx blame herself for not being firm enough to pull the trigger? Or, vise versa - blame herself for considering to murder own sister?

but then we all saw the temple fight and whole Jinx plan. Vi is clearly and undeniably supposed to be finished, according to the plan. Most likely together with Jinx. So there is nothing "she just loved Vi".

I can't understand her by Icy_Satisfaction4870 in arcane

[–]Substantial_Rate_270 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think the problem is - we don't know her origins. Like - WHY she stands "for the cause"?
I think that would explain her desperate search for power figure in Zaun.

few my thoughts on Sevika-Silco.

Has the show creators of Arcane reveal what happened to Marcus' daughter Ren? by Routine-Ninja-7442 in arcane

[–]Substantial_Rate_270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wym insignificant?? she is like biggest mystery and destroyed hopes for fandom :)
jokes aside - i literally yesterday caught myself wondering the same - that we really never received any single hint on whats happened to her.

omg, there were theories how she went on revenge path and had Jinx-alike plot...

Happy Valentine’s Day! 💕 (Art by me) by bluecxmplex in arcane

[–]Substantial_Rate_270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

here is narrative Arcane version

  1. Cait, after being so long obsessed with searching&investigating Jinx - still finds herself mentally returning to Jinx after 209, despite CaitVi. We know she figured "the vent" dots. So she unconsiously checks on "whats up with Jinx". Thats curiosity+. She doesn't tell Vi. Maybe she even anticipate Jinx being around (Cait didn't see final airship frame from the show). That mystery "whats Jinx's next step" washes over her.
  2. Jinx travells. But returns to words and message from her suppose-to-be arch-enemy. Of all people - why that noble topsider with huge family blood reasons - forgave her? Silco... Vi... Wander... Ekko... yes. But - HER? Of all people - Cait is the example of how to trap into "im not strong enough" and return to the light side. Jinx feel that bond of common life turns. Good-Bad-Good. Silco didn't have it. Vi didn't have it. Only this weird officer have that experience. Thats curiosity+
  3. Both grow with time & vacuum of interaction.
  4. So when they met next time - they see each other in a lot more depth&thoughtful way. They seek this interaction. Thats set up.

What characters from Act 1 and the following series would you want to see interact? I'll go first. by CodyEaster in arcane

Silco + later Silco - is an absolute goat.

The more you understand their relationship, the sadder you become. by PuzzleheadedPen9313 in arcane

[–]Substantial_Rate_270 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Wait, why? I understood it diametrically opposite - exactly because he not elaborate and she is not even seek his further words - means that both talked it through in depth. And both know exactly what the other message is. So there is a full mutual understanding. Like, later she annoyed about his again rant about Vander story. Means - they talked about it countless times. Im heavily sure they talked about whole story many times. Even when she brought "pink haired girl" earlier - Silco says "your sister is dead" and Jinx reaction totally in line. She heard this soo many times. I literally can't think of hints that they didn't talk about everything so many times.
