The best part about the Jayce and Vi raid, is that it's probably the most hyped up fight scene, but it's done specifically to lure you into the same mindset as Jayce, so you can be shell-shocked by the child murder.
ikr, the writing is so genius
It's genius
It sucks how they didn't realize that the child was the one controlling the mech
@@themantsang The kid was just the one that pushed the button, he wasn't in the suit.
@@BrolysShadow_ It also humanized the Chem-Barons who aren`t Silco since that was Renni(The redhead Chem Baroness)`s son.
Arcane: *Has some of the best animated action sequences of all time*
Also Arcane: "Hey, it looks like you're enjoying violence too much so we're gonna kill a child on-screen just in case"
Love the post-discussion!
Ok so a couple thoughts:
1. I agree that Sky was a life sacrifice and her life force is why the hex core evolved into what it is now. It took her life force, which is dark magic and thus corrupted it.
2. Victor is a scientist but Victor is reckless and no one ever calls him on it, but they show it is his defining trait. Think on every scene of his. We empathize with his sickness and we think that is what drives him but he was like this as a child, with the boat where he put it in a stream moving faster than he possibly could. He showed it in breaking into get Jase’s experiment. Jase asks if he thinks it’s safe and Victor says “of course not!” We laugh but he’s serious. He tinkers with Jinx’s grenade before absolutely knowing he could disarm it. He takes a shimmer variant, has success, sees he’s only got a corner left in the vial and doesn’t stop to figure out how to get more, he just bulls ahead despite prior evidence of the danger in doing so.
I like Victor but his flaw is his reckless nature which is underpinned by hubris. He wants to be remembered as having done something great.
Jayce 🤝 Vi
Having a terrible first meeting with their girlfriend’s mom
.......Huh. Good catch
Ya'll gonna lose your minds when you realize just how many parallels there are between the two, beyond the fact that their mentors were the founders of cities and their "siblings" having even more in common.
Mentors trying to keep things the same and stable but they didn't accept that and secretly did something risky which seemed to work but got people hurt...
@@EternalDensity And said mentor has an old partner/friend who had the same goals and different methods, who himself becomes a mentor to the younger sibling character.
@@smileyhappyface5864 who is vi’s mentor? Are you talking about vander?
Finally another reaction channel not saying Mel completely changed as a character, just because we've been given more context.
People have been saying that?? Geez
I think what's funny is that I've seen lots of people be like "You can't just storm in there!" during the council meeting, but as soon as Vi suggests it, they're all in agreement with her. Attachment to a character really changes people's viewpoints.
I'd like to point out another thing regarding Vi's words in the courtroom, but in the next episode as the context there is necessary
I agree. With the context of episode 9, Vi looks really bad in that scene in hindsight. Personally, I didn't like Jayce and Vi all that much (they're well-written characters, I just disagreed with them a lot). They're good intentioned, but they're so hot-blooded and rash that they make really bad decisions.
I was going to comment the same thing, a lot of reactors see Mel's mom talking to jayce about standing up for his people before is too late and are like "no jayce, don't listen to her" then vi comes in with pretty much the same idea, and they are like "fuck yeah, finally jayce does something right" lmao
No honestly- people get mad at Jayce when he constantly gets swayed/manipulated by others, yet they flip-flop the same way when it comes to supporting the characters they like
color scheme in Arcane is so great.
The eye, garments, hair, Cosmetics etc...
Symbol is strong!
And Jayce seems more weak fully clothed but
Ambessa without any is so confident ...!
Viktor's assistant is called Skye, and that's the name of the girl from the undercity that was watching him make his boat before going back to play with other kids.
Personally I think she saved his life by sacrificing herself because he didn't have Schimmer this time, and the experiment clearly wasn't going well.
"There are bigger fish than Silco". This is followed immediately by the scene cutting to us seeing Ambessa Medarda (Mel's mom) show up in Piltover. We then see later in the episode that she has designs to encourage the production of Hextech weaponry, and to be a warmonger.
Piltover is essentially a city state so it's pretty small on the global scale despite its advanced technology. The way I interpret that line is that there are greater forces outside of it that have been closely following the development of shimmer/hextech, that have a lot more influence and might than what Piltover can bring to bear. We know that Silco has been exporting Shimmer through the Hexgates from back in episode 4, so we know that there are people/forces outside of Piltover that are interested and maybe invested in his operation. Whether that is referring to Noxus which is where the Medardas are from, or perhaps the man that Mel's brother crossed, or someone else entirely is unclear. Regardless, I don't think that Finn was talking about himself or the rest of the Chem-barons when he refers to there being bigger fish than Silco. He's talking about forces outside the borders of Piltover, which I think is supported narratively by the immediate introduction of Ambessa Medarda as an external force with ulterior motives towards the technology being developed inside Piltover.
There are a bunch of references to Swain in these episodes, especially the crows watching everything. There is reason to believe he is the wrong man the Medardas have crossed, and if the crows mean anything, then Swain knows what is going on with hextec and shimmer. I don't know if Finn was referring especifically to him, but Swain is definitely a bigger fish than Silco, and there's a good chance we see him show up in S2
Jayce mentions "The threats beyond our walls" when he talks to Silco in the final episode. As someone who knows little to nothing about LoL lore, I've always found that line intriguing and scary, but I've never seen a single person comment on it.
Love how in the shower scene with Caitlyn, she was looking back at that scene with Vi backwards, like she was thinking what she should have done instead of just letting her leave.
Finn's voice actor is Miyavi a japanese musician, he also performs the song from Jayce and Vi's battle on this episode with PVRIS
Glad you two are not as judgmental about Jayce as many other reactors/people. So many feel he is a problem and Vi is the one to root for and is righteous. Your comment on how the war would look like their battle at the end of the episode is exactly what the show was going for. Jayce is a naive, but right hearted dude that is trying his best. "How many people are you willing to lose?" "Nobody wins in war" The show is great, character writing top tier.
Jayce is a himbo.
Not being negative but that's what he is. He is an academic but completely clueless when it comes to politics and his own privilege
I was thinking about how Vi said you can't negotiate with Silco. That was more true when she knew him, back before she got locked up for a couple years. He didn't like Vander making deals with the Enforcers but ended up doing that himself once he took over. Granted, he has been resistant to making a deal to hand over the hex crystal.
it was never about the deal, it was about the humiliating condition of the deal, Vander wanted to protect the little they had, Silco is ready to burn the little they have to end up with what they deserve
@gizel4376 that's a problem too though, Vander was ok with keeping the status quo, as long as nobody got hurt, and as we've seen in real life, sometimes you do have to fight for your indepencence, even if it comes at the cost of some lives in order for things to change for the better. Although Silcos method was dark, he was doing it so the next generation could have a better life, none of the things he was doing were out of selfishness, until he started having to protect jinx from all the problems she was causing. Silco is actually a lot like Mel's mom, in that he was willing to do whatever it took for his people to have a future, his only problem was jinx making him weak and not letting him make the necessary decisions, maybe he should've just casted her away lol
I think this might be the most excited I've been for reactors to finish this season.
For me it was the channel Semblance of Sanity, but yes these reactors are up there too
What i like is the parallel bewteen the gameplay of jayce in LoL and his personality in Arcane.
In game he has an adaptative kit with short and long range attacks and with a lot of diverse abilities to adapt to any situation.
In Arcane ,his personality adapt to the people he interract with.
Lmao
Imagine how bad your life has to be when sitting in a chemsuit, waiting for a burst of shimmer, seems like a viable option.
Jayce reminds me of Secretary General Sorrento-Gillis from The Expanse... easy to manipulate. His stance is basically the stance of whoever spoke to him last. He flip flops like pair of sandals.
I adore this show. I have a 3D print of the shot of Vi flying in and punching the soldier in the face. It is the frame just as the fist shatters the helmet. I haven’t painted it yet but it’s bitchin.
Jayce: We have to go in by force.
"NOPE"
Vi: We have to go in by force.
"Well, let's be a little more measured in our approach to peace."
50:33 Finn is voiced by a popular Japanese guitarist MIYAVI, he also co-wrote and performed the aggressive fight song in this episode.
Sorry to be that guy, but where is the last one?
I can only assume they're having a hard time picking and choosing what to include in the youtube cut.
7:27; 12:09 - Mama Medarda got that "death by snu snu" aura.
I absolutely love your analysis of Jayce, Mel, and Victor! Everyone loves the writing of Vi & Jinx (I definitely do too), but there's something I'm so fascinated by with those other three & how subtle or realistic their flaws are and how they dictate their decisions.
I'm glad you guys understand Jayce- I heard before I watched this show that Jayce is disliked by a lot of people. But I actually love his character because I honestly sympathize with him & his goals to try and please everyone without truly knowing the best plan forward. I think people just hate him because he makes mistakes, even though that's the point of his whole arc this season. He's a good person but also a privileged scientist thrust into a position he doesn't have the personality or experience for. So of course he's gonna make mistakes. It's not until he sees the full picture with Vi in this episode that he's truly able to form his own opinions, rather than have other politicians influence him.
I love that the show creators were willing to finally give fans the big battle that they've been wanting for so much of the show... and then completely take away the satisfaction of it by having the kid die at the end of it. Yes, the battles are glorious, but they come with a very high, human cost. Not just helmeted enforcers, not just shimmer monsters... but bystanders. On top of that, for these kids working here, the enforcers aren't the grand, gleaming heroes that Jayce sees himself as in his drawing. They are the jackbooted thugs coming in to steal away the one way these kids have of helping to support their families and put food on the table. They don't see Silco as the bad guy for employing them at his literal drug factory, he's the hero for giving them something they can do to live a better life than they would have otherwise. They're people who, on the whole, have next to nothing, and here are the enforcers coming to take away what minute amount that they do have. It is an evil thing that Silco did to employ children at the shimmer factories... and diabolically brilliant as a "public relations" chess maneuver.
Very perceptive review! Not many reactors follow along the way you do.
Mel is a fascinating character because she appears to undergo a heel-face turn, but in fact she doesn't - we just get to see her motivations and beliefs more clearly.
Jayce is a great character too - handsome, charming, idealistic and smart (but not brilliant in the way Jinx and Victor is) but he's *weak*, very naive and swayed by every wind that blows on him.
Sevika is interesting too - she's loyal to the *cause*, not to any individual, and turned on Vander when she felt he was weak.
dude, the scene where Victor was finally able to keep with the boat is so beautiful
also 17:15 Powder is back guys!
9:45 How dare you! Yordles do NOT look like dogs, madame!
that's yordlist shaking my smh
Yordle mains are dogs though
@@The_Wild_Healer I wouldn't disagree siir
*cough* corki corgee *cough*
The transition between the most tender moment - Caitlyn gently touching Vi's face... to the most grotesque - Jinx in agonising torment, still gets me.
Yeah, Viktor runs fast.. faster than the boats in the background... one of which looks a lot like the one that got away from him in his flashback as a child.
Also, foreshadowing of technology that he's made getting away from him.
Unrelated, but did you guys drop solo leveling? I wouldn't be surprised if you did cause it didn't seem like a show you guys got a lot from, but I always enjoy your guys' reviews and criticisms of shows you don't exactly vibe with, so just curious.
FYI, the femboy makes an appearance in episode 5, in the brothel. He has a mask on. Right when Catelyn and Vi enter and start looking in rooms.
Great review! I’ve watched over 50 Arcane reactions/reviews and you two give some of the best post show discussion I’ve seen. You hit so many of the subtle details that a lot of people don’t catch. All I can say is hold on…the final episode still manages to kick it up another notch.
Уже восьмая серия, буквально одна серия осталась и всё....
Но скоро выйдет второй сезон, так что не отчаиваемся👌
Благодарю за видос
о не один я такой дебил который смотрит реакции на английском
@@diskoebalo Реакции есть реакции, на любых языках 😅
Да и впринципе субтитры есть, так что всё отлично
@@diskoebalo нас легион
Have to say I'm a bit confused as to how you see Vi and Caitlyn's relationship here.
I think you guys give himedinger way too much credit. The guy basically founded the city to run from his fear of magic and gave all the responsibility to the counsil (to the extent that they could even kick him out). The fact that his soo old while having no idea of the condition of the undercity (or the fact that the undercity exits at all) despite having been there personally inorder to have met Victor should be more than a indication of his imcopetence as a leader and lack of empathy for his citizens.
I wouldn't say lack of empathy, more like willful ignorance. He does have empathy, as far as we've seen. Especially from this episode
@@TechnoArpan No I still believe he lacks empathy and I think this video explains way better than I can, ruclips.net/video/tg806plte7A/видео.htmlsi=uK8BSVzE2xys6TOJ
Sub everyone, that hair needs to go! I think a shaved head will suit him too 😂
Here's a thought. Jayce IS Hextech. Abnormally potent and competent and driven by the whims of its current handler.
Great call out on Jace! I never noticed that before. 👏🏾. God I love this show. Enjoying the reaction 🙌🏾
The President does not go to the slums
"We must take care of Silco, cut the head off that snake" Yea, treat that symptom and ignore the cause, that'll show'em! Who cares that the city is dying from magical super cancer, if we just take out this one revolutionary I'm sure everything will immediately improve!
Non-Patreon member here, curious you guys going to react to the 2nd half of Invincible s2?
Jayce have no experience in politics, he just started, but since nobody does anything, he have to manage everything by himself and yes he make lots of mistake.
Is Invincible out? It should be here today, if anyone still remembers that show lol.
Purple helmet heads are not minions, just people with an item that could be bought for champions. Turbo Chemtank item from League of Legends that gave increased HP, magic resistance and movement speed. This item has now been removed.
After this series yall should react to more league stuff like lore, music vids, other champions, cinematics. all good and popular stuff.
Did you catch that the headboard of Mel's bed is an image of the blood and amulet from her beheading scene flashback? She goes to sleep every night after being reminded of that.
absolutly cant wait for you guys to watch the finale , really like your channel keep up the good work
I never thought of Viktor sacrificing drug addicts in the slums before but now I am afraid of it. He is more empathetic to the plight of the lower city than most, being originally from there, but now that you bring it up I do fear him losing himself.
Keyingisi soʻnggi qism 😢
Afsus 2 mavsumni kutib qolamiz holos ❤
I don’t wanna be annoying, but originally the show ran for 3 weeks..
The reactions have taken over 2 months now.
I really think this hold your channel back so much honestly.
I consider you to be the best reactors/reviewers on youtube, but its so hard to watch anything on your channel as its coming out.
I am not sure whats blocking the pipeline, my best assumption is that you simply want to take your time to not blow all the shows too quickly but there are almost infinite shows that can replace them, and they are always making more..
When you first started watching arcane I said to myself I wont watch until you drop it all, since I know you all over the years.
Unfortunately, by ep 3 i couldnt hold myself back and now here I am :/
Love the detail with viktor now being able to outrun the boat in the background, while when he was a kid, the boat got away from him.
The "Child to Enemy" ratio should be a real standard.
I love the scene where Victor runs on the peer, finally overtaking the boats in the background, contrasted to his fragile former self where he couldn't keep up with his own toy boat.
Undercity people don't really know what Heimer looks like and there are other Yordles down there. He doesn't even need a disguise.
reason Mel like that not because she naive but becaus she kow there people like her mom out there so weapon it alway need for protect themself
Nimzi saying "like" 20-30 times a minute XD i started to liten to it, and its insaine 😅 (no problem or anything but interesting)
Join the Glorious Evolution!🤖🔥✨
If Carson shaves his head will they change the name to the BALDcast channel?
Funny, every body wants to do good in this show. And nobody does really.
not sure if your taking recs for anime reactions rn but i wanted to say it, i would love it if you guys reacted to”Darling In The Franxx” it takes place in the future and its soo good( if you make the decision to watch it on yt theres a slight bit of nudity if the first episode but i believe thats it)
How do you compare the quality of Arcane to Frieren?
For me, those (and maybe Andor) are the only 10/10 shows in the last few years.
why is your video quality grainy
i don't even want to see episode 9 anyways
Report jinx for feeding
why does it feel lke you guys always ready to jump on Jace anytime hes not perfect human being? Every single character in this show has issues lmao
Guys solo leveling ep9 where's the reaction
41:20 maybe Viktor should just die, tbh
100th comment
First
_"There is a bigger fish than silco"_
Could it be Renata Glasc? Just a thought...
She IS Silco tho) can't be
@@invi022 What?
nothing, i saw an interview with the show runner Christian Linke and he said they wanted a different subplot that was discarded during the production and they forgot to remove that line but you can safely ignore it, it means nothing
it's the same thing as "the boy savior", there was a planned scene where the young Ekko wants to save Powder from Silco but fails and that's why Jinx calls him "boy savior" because she knew about that rescure plan... but the scene was discarded and the line remained, all of these little inconsistencies are talked about by the creators
@@fixpontt I mean season 2 is coming now they have very good chance to correct these inconsistencies into plot, that's what my comment was referring to (maybe in season 2 they will introduce a bigger fish from Zaun)
