but there’s no caitvi, that’s the main problem

The best episode of the show is episode 3 from season one, hands down. The terrible culmination of what would become the split between the 2 sisters is so powerful. This episode is kind of fun but the whole alternate reality trope that we've seen in so many shows is more impactful when you actually see real actors playing Different characters. It's less impactful and fun when it's an animated character acting like an alternate version of themselves. A lot of you guys never watched Star Trek and it shows. But seriously, arcane is a great show, I just like season one more.

This episode hurts

What's the name of the song

There’s one of those mini split split second frame things when he’s looking at the glass after waking up. Powder says hi but jinx is in the glass reflection sad

its great but i couldnt get through it without crying because vi died in that universe

Yes, this is the hapiest episode. But the thing is, we are not watching arcane for happiness, but to feel pure sadness, I suppose.

This episode made me feel single af.

Oh, so it has a name? Where I watched it, it just said “Episode 7” (every other episode had the correct name), so I thought it was a nod to how it was from another universe, which instead of the episode names being a line from the episode, is just the number of the episode

It was my favourite too and i was greatly surprised that it wasn't rated the highest as i'd consider it Arcane's Ozymandias.

I love this episode, too, even if it hurts quite a lot to see a world where Vi didn't survive, and Zaun is flourishing. The beautiful ache that it causes is something that you really need a deft touch to pull off, and they execute it just... so wonderfully!

" Arcane makes you nostalgic for a past you never lived " literally bro

Meanwhile, Jayce, in episode 7, is in Dark Souls' universe.

dafuq. All of season 2 after like ep 3 is trash

"Tu est la plus belle chose qui m'est arrivé, mais tu est aussi la pire chose qui m'est arrivé" "You are the most beautiful thing that happened to me, but you are also the worst thing that happened to me", when you understand the lyric used in that episode, i can say that it can break the hardest heart ...

"[...] For the Orcs had life and _multiplied_ _after_ _the_ _manner_ _of_ _the_ _Children_ _of_ _Illuvatar_ [Elves, Men and Dwarves],... And deep in their dark hearts the Orcs loathed the Master whom they served in fear, the maker only of their misery. This it may be was the vilest deed of Melkor, and the most hateful to Illuvatar." (J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion)

i hate this episode because it is so good and it feels so right

loved this episode, wish it was longer

It really shows that although trauma can contribute to shaping us, the love and support we receive while healing from it can make a world of difference.

I genuinely cried so hard watching this episode

Yeah but Vi is dead :/

Tf you mean mourderous psycopath?

S2E7 >>>>>>>>>>

powder is literally a manic pixie dream girl and i love it ❤❤❤

Well yes but no vi nawwww 😭😭

That's exactly what I thought. Watching this scene I remembered my school crush for some reason😂

Just for the record. Jinx/Powder never was a psychopath. A Psychopath do not care about other people not even their own family and they do not feel regret. Jinx has some kind of psychosis which is an entirely different mental illness. / from a psychology student/

Vi is dead: worse universe

The irony of the situation for ekko and jayce is insane tho... Ekko never saw a prosperous under city in his universe, and Jayce was "pampered" in the upper city... now the situations are reversed

It’s crazy to think that the best world in Arcane is the one where Vi isn’t in it.

see. It was all VI's fault.

Sorry but this isnt cannon or real. Pure garbage given to us by the woke. It will be forgotten

You know not only humans feel feelings yeah? It's a common trait for every animal.

Don't make the expendable mooks into misunderstood people unless you're going to invent _another_ horde of expendable mooks. Otherwise no one is going to get to stab _anyone_ in your epic war fantasy.

The books say that orcs reproduce quickly. Also, when I got to this scene, I didn’t feel like it so much “humanized” the orcs, as much as it showed how they are oppressed and hate it, highlighting the evil of their leaders. So yes, they are evil. But even they are less evil than their tormentors. Similar to how Sauron tells Celebrimbor that he was tortured by Morgoth (even if that was a lie). The hate of their evil leaders corrupts the orcs even more and in return further corrupts the leaders Also, possibly, in the show, Adar’s troop is referred to as his family, his children, and it seems very cult-like. So it’s arguable that they wouldn’t be quite like the orcs we’re used to. That is probably giving the writers too much credit, though.

The elves were never all that good. IF orcs are twisted elves -- twisted against their wills -- the possibility exists that they not only go to the Halls of Mandos, but that they might even be cured there and return as elves. However, they probably are NOT elves. Among other things, their biology seems to be fundamentally different.

"it makes you feel nostalgic for a past you've never lived" is somehow the most perfect explanation of why this episode is so good!

it's not that if Orc families are lore accurate it's the fact that the makes of this shit show tried to make them sympathetic creatures that deserve none

super nice vid mate, really good points put really well together

Great video and you make a lot of good points, but orcs do have children. Tolkien wrote that they "reproduce in the manner of children of Ilúvatar". And if they have children (considering how useless and fragile babies are) at least orc females must have SOME minimal motherly instincts, otherwise they would leave their children to die, because taking care of a newborn would be such an annoying burden. Eps when their own "society" is so dangerous. Orcs are cruel and violent and their only talent is for war, but (when it comes for their desire to have their own land) they do want to survive. They would rather not go to war and they would rather not die - if they would have that choice. So that they would want to have some place where nobody would attack them on sight isn't that far-fetched. People confuse "humanize" with "sympathetic". The point is that Orcs never were mindless vessels of evil. They are also not "friendly" with one another but the Uruk-hai obvi hate their own less than the others. Orcs from Mordor hate other Orcs from Mordor a little less than the rest of the world too. Also Tolkien himself didn't feel comfortable with answering the question about orc being redeemable or not, because he's not a god and that would be "thinking himself too important". And yet some fans will declare that orcs (who were once elves and still have souls) are just pure evil and could never be and will never ever be anything else.

VERY nice analysis, all the way through to the end and how we as the human race can see lessons for our own lives within the races of Middle Earth.

when he saw benzo again i collapsed

Orcs wernts already "humanised" getting bored or hungry isn't a humanising them.. they literally cannibalise their own people and ripped them apart and ate them... they are monsters they are made for one reason war and death . They are pure evil they don't have empathy or families 😂😂😂 Youre really talking 🐄💩

Was there ever any corrupted hobbits besides gollum? They said Bilbo’s great great grandfather fought in war. Did some turn to evil?

Displaying hunger and identifying a source of nutrition is not humanizing; every form of animal life on Earth would be humanized by that metric. "If they're not brainlessly evil, they must be humanized" is a wildly inaccurate take.

"Perfect, ageless elves... the pinacles of beauty, truth and good" Feanor: allow me to introduce myself

Brothers. We must resist the snowbunny temptation.... but oh lord Jynx is different. 😮‍💨

Anyone else want to see Alternate Ekko's No Good, Very Bad, Awful, Terrible Day? Like. Imagine being him in the main timeline. His girlfriend is a muderous psychopath who goes through war flashbacks when he says her name. Piltover and Zaun are on the verge of war. Vander and the others are dead. Silco adopted your girlfriend afterwards and used her as muscle for his criminal empire (before she accidentally killed him). Noxus is trying to colonize both cities. Oh yeah and the trans-organic cult thats brewing.

I love how this just completely forgets the other half of the episode, I’m sure jayce is doing just fine

Clearly it can’t be the best universe because Jayce and Viktor would be dead (or just Viktor would be dead and they wouldn’t have ever met) 😔😔😔
