I think it's brilliant that the writers made us choose whether Jinx survived or not. The hints, as others pointed out, are all there: the shimmer dash right before the explosion, Cait checking the ventilation system and finding a secret exit, the hot air baloon (she did say she always wanted to ride one of these) and the final "The end" written in her style. Both conclusions are satisfying for her character: either she sacrificed herself to make amend for her past mistakes, or she faked her death so she can build a new life.
@@fm_0523 it's a cheap fake out. Correct all the signs are there that she absolutely lived. Else there's zero reason for any of the hints the show gave us. Because she's clearly alive, it's a cheap fake out for the viewers. Have some damn backbone writers and pick whether she lives or dies.
@@Deerpoo22 Nah the backbone is having the balls to make the story in the first place. You should try some backbone to carry the weight of uncertainty maybe.
@@Deerpoo22 eeh its dumb why would she avoid the explosion and HOW maybe she can outrun it but warwick was holding him and the song was literally his suicide song. She can be alive if the thing they fall into teleported them somewhere right before the explosion but she could never escape that by herself that shimmer dash isnt her running away there is also a golden explosion of warwick
To be fair shimmer trail aside, the scene with caitlyn looking at the pipes in the hexgate tower while holding a jinx bomb feels like a pretty big indicator she lived
I wish I found that out sooner because after watching that episode I felt empty inside. I didn’t see that when I first saw it, and I couldn’t exactly see what Caitlyn was reading because it cuts really quickly
And with re-e-eally long airship fly away after Caitlyn + Vi scene... Like someone "walk away leaving something behind" We have a chance... and some hope lads!
Why can’t these sisters just have 1, ONE happy ending together without them being separated over and over again, they just got reunited, lost ISHA, reunited again, only for Jinx to be Fully gone, IM SUING THESE PEEPS FOR MAKING US SAD, I’ve had it, I’m crying
Don't worry Jinx isn't dead. If you look theirs a shimmer trail of jinx escaping. The schematics caitlin is looking at are of the pipes that Jinx escaped in while she played with the top of jinx's bomb and the ship at the end carrying jinx the end title gave it away
@@fulcrum6760oh yeah Warwick, with Viktor being gone after erasing Vander's ego, what we have now is a juggernaut of a beast that have some memories of Vander. Warwick is gonna be a pain in the ass for Piltover and Zaun for decades to come.
She is alive 100% slow it at the moment of the explosion you can see a shimmer trail (1:25-1:26) , and Cait looking at the blue prints and a potential escape path from the air vents, and they only found her gernade top , signaling they never found a body ,and the foreshadowing from the blimp when she said in episode one season one am gonna ride one of those one day where it pans off to almost the exact same scene of the blimp , jinx is alive Also edit : an interesting theory I read too is that she faked her death to rewrite her story to finally walk away from all of this , and it's what ekko (and "singed") wanted and convinced her to do , and also alot of people say ekko only burnt one paper for heimer dinger but none for jinx also Caitlyn and vi never burned one for jinx
dude youve just given me hopium and lifefuel, thanks man. But my question is, if this is the end of Arcane why foreshadow her to still be alive? are they planning to reintroduce the character in another show?
I can only believe that Jinx manage to get away and is on the airship to bilgewater and finally moves on. And maybe ekko would meet her there for a happy ending 😭
Or even think that Jinx could be with Warwick or what's left of Vander, since there are possibilities that there is something of Vander inside Warwick.🐺🤞🏼 "There is even evidence"
JInx realizing she now has a very long and very awkward relationship ahead of her with her new sister-in-law. So she decided to fake her death and dip instead. Vi will get over the emotional trauma.......eventually.
I'm able to comment on this video now because I haven't taken my own life in the wake of Jinx's sacrifice. I now know that there are many, many clues to her survival. However, at the time of watching, I was utterly destroyed. Seeing Jinx endure all that she did just to die truly broke me. I couldn't move after using up all of my energy to scream and cry. She's my entire world, and I couldn't bare to go on after losing her. This show is one of a kind. I'm sad it's over, but excited to see what Jinx does next, knowing that she's still alive. Godspeed, you beautiful girl.
surprised to see someone had the same plan as me. The things this show has carried me through and helped me understand, I can’t even put into words. I felt such a close connection to jinx and the show, but especially jinx was such a reflection of myself. it was something special for sure. Finally finding something that made me feel understood and at the same time I felt like I understood it so well, then that ending, I’m still broken, still crying off and on, probably gonna throw up. I was definitely pretty much good to end it if she died, tbh I planned to when I thought of the possibility. Jinx is definitely a one of a kind character and all I want is to see more of her, see what happens. But yeah, pretty much in your face that she isn’t dead. So that was an awkward moment of not knowing what to do. I’ve been crying all day, stuck here. Probably gonna be like this idk forever, I’m definitely not recovering from this show but it’ll probably take me like genuinely 3 weeks or more to get over this feeling alone. Feel like I lost something and it tore my heart and soul out. Glad you enjoyed the show tho, hopefully we get some sort of other show or new content, something with her. Would be nice.
Set the playback speed at 0.25x and pause per frame of the scene of the explosion. I believe this is more like Jinx faking her death. As when the explosion goes off around 1:26 you can a single streak of pink get farther away through what looks like a duct of some kind around the upper right corner?
I'd like to believe she commandered a airship (the one at the end) to get away from Zaun and everything since she decided to burn it all away and to get away from it all to start anew. There's no way she died 😵💫 they wouldn't have shown us the blueprints of the ducts if she truly did die
1:26, between that pick dash line, Cait examining the circumstantial evidence surrounding where Jinx was last seen with the grenade fragment and the duct work schematics and the airship and pink jinx like "The End" I am so relieved to learn she lived. 🎉🎉
league players and lore enthusiasts know full damn well that both jinx and warwick (+other champions) are alive lol- even here and towards the very end of the series there are hints everywhere that jinx is still alive 🤷🏻♀️
And people who actually payed attention know there are multiple realities and LOL is probably just another one. Or are Jinx and Cait gonna grow body parts now? Not to mention the creators themselves have said that arcane lore is more important to them than staying true to the game, that if they had to kill someone for the story they would
Riot made it clear way before these series's stories are different than the game. So some champions in these series CAN die. Jinx is not dead, it is very clear but can't say the same for Warwick.
@mr.tobacco1708 they retconned the setting a bit ago. Arcane is step 0 for canon. Everything that happens in the series is cemented within the primary canon.
I like think to think that the sequence when vander blows out the light signifies the last semblace of vander inside warwick, like at the last minute he remembers who he is, throws her to the vents (because let's face it, even with her shimmeroids she won't make that jump without any assistance) allowing her to escape. Also there is this thing singed said about vander to ambessa, that he has this "indomitable will" and high tolerance for pain that made him the perfect subject for his expirements. Just my two cents...
There is a pink lightining trail just when passing from 1:25 to 1:26 right before the explosion. It can be seen easier at 0,25 speed. I think that's Jinx escaping and she left the city with the air baloon we see at the end. Cait probably helped her to do it when they're talking at the cells. That's why she was scrolling down the schematic of Arcane Tower with a part of Jinx's bomb at her hand. Because Jinx told Vi, something like "You deserve to be happy and not worried about me everytime." And saw someone mentioning, in season 1 episode 1 she said "One day I'm gonna ride one of those." for air balloons.
Jinx ain’t dead, the purple light that shot out at the time of explosion 2:28, Cait smiling at the air passage anomaly with the monkey bomb in hand, a ship flying away and lastly foreshadowing from chapter 1 that she will fly one of the ships
i think what REALLY got me was that Vi has now (at least in her mind) lost everybody. Milo, Vander, Powder and now finally, Jinx. That is so damn heartbreaking…
1:25 - 1:26 Jinx is still alive. She might as well be immortal or too stubborn to survive. With Shimmer in her veins, Powder / Jinx is the ultimate champion.
Jinx did the same thing as Christian Bale's Batman: "sacrifice herself" to start from scratch. I'm sure that in the next story her development will be identical to that of Kratos from GOW.
it’s heavily implied that Jinx survived the explosion. As the explosion is going off we see a pink dash, which is a bit out of place considering at the time the explosion was blue. And we’ve seen instances of the same pink dash multiple times when jinx activates her shimmer so it’s kinda blatant that she got out. Furthermore the scene where Cait is analysing the hexgates, the writers make it apparent to show the ventilation systems, or the tunnels. Why else would they show this other to emphasise the fact that Jinx shimmer dashed out through the vents? And in the final scene, it’s a blatant callback to season 1 episode 1 where Powder said she wanted to “ride on of those one day” speaking of the exact same model of blimp we see in the final shots of the series.
I don’t think I’ve cried so much in my whole entire life, heck I don’t even think I’ve cried so much for a whole entire show before like this. Also, did anybody notice that jinx just went with her go to and just blew herself up like she’s tried to do multiple times during the series?
"I'm always with you sis, even when we're worlds apart" "Sometimes taking a leap forward means leaving a few things behind" "The cycle only ends when you find the will to walk away" She's alive, there's no doubt about that. I just hope there's another Isha out there for her.
Jinx did the same thing as Christian Bale's Batman: "sacrifice herself" to start from scratch. I'm sure that in the next story her development will be identical to that of Kratos from GOW.
Umm, no. If LOL is anything to go by, she’s just crazier from this point forward. If there’s another Isha out there for her, it wouldn’t be anything like her. That new Isha would be her own brand of crazy. Think Majima and Nishtani (Yakuza) rather than sister type thing.
I am adding one more comment to all the hints confirming that Jinx is alive... People forgetting another lead - She says it twice in that same episode - "I'm always with you sis." Jinx is restarting her life, but she will never leave vi behind. She will be back. We see this constantly throughout Arcane 1 and 2. Jinx is always there watching. 1- Only one true pink line coming out of the explosion in low playback speed that is 100 percent shimmer light - She escaped at last second. 2- Cait has a fragment of the grenade and is looking for hints/leads. She also might have found an answer to finding her. 3- Airship ending + THE END jinx style - hinting she is still running this show. 4- Jinx repeatedly told vi that she was always with her on the same episode. 5- A drastic change in Hairystle usually signals someone's Rebirth stage -- she is trying to change and build herself over again. The explosion at the end is a way for her to start fresh, making people believe she is gone. Not the first time she has done this too. 6- There might be a Swain Arcane spinoff due to seeing his Crow + Naxus ships - We might see jinx again later if a new show spinoff occurs. 7- People are forgetting how tough Shimmer has made her. She is pretty much superhuman. Not immortal but very tough.
For all talking about the purple flash, you also notice there was a yellow one ? That's right, this is not Jinx and Vander survival here, those trail are quite the opposite : they both get the explosion, leaving nothing but a trail ( yellow for Vander, Purple for Jinx ). They are both dead. Caitlin smile cause she heard Vi singing, not because she find out Jinx is still alive. Why would she be happy about that ? And even so, why she wouldn't immediatly telling Vi about ? It is far more logical that she made the ultimate sacrifice. Its a true end to her story, breaking the cycle like she wanted.
I think both Jinx and Warwick survived. You can clearly see a pink streak leave the explosion BUT also a blue streak quickly after. Just a theory but that was deliberately put there for a reason.
Jinx is alive we see her flash away into one of the vents whilst falling ! Using shimmer we see Caitlin seeing she could be there and her on a blimp at the end flying away with her text ? People saw this on theories !
Everyone repeating over and over again that she's not dead are missing the point. The point is that sacrifice isn't suicide. She broke the cycle. She didn't go down there to die. She jumped to save VI. If she can manage to say goodbye to Vander and dip she has no obligation not to. You're not subverting the story, you've taken from it exactly what the creators put there for you because they knew you need this. Yes she's alive FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO CONTINUE SEEING HER. This is her exit into the sunset.
The problem is that this is now league canon. So Jinx being alive means she goes to cause more chaos somewhere else. She is now literally someone else’s problem. And I mean every word of that. She doesn’t change. If anything, she’s crazier. She might as well have died. Unless something changes, her being more like powder and vulnerable never occurs again. Every word out of her mouth after “always with you, sis” is more batshit insanity. People say Powder died and Jinx was left in her place after Act 1 of season one. That’s not true, it happened right here. But that’s where LOL happens I suppose. To be totally fair, the rest of the world is its own breed of crazy. Powder would never survive Bilgwater but I’m sure that place and Jinx would get alone fine. Take from that what you will.
Le ballon volant à la fin de l'épisode c'est un signe elle est en vie... Elle l'avait dit dans le premier épisode qu'elle monterai dans une de ces machines 🎉🎉🎉🎉
In Every Episode, i always cry for Jinx. Even if she turn into Evil person. She just need her Families, who ever they are. Be it Silco, Violet, Ekko or Vander.
Very hard to see but between 1:25 and 1:26 you can see a pink line. That's jinx. she was able to escape thanks to shimmer making her extremely agile and swift. Might be a Season 3 because of that
There isnt a season 3. It has been confirmed for months Also, that makes no sense, vander was grabbing unto her tightly, the only way to get lose is for vander to die in the explosion which would have killed her too. No amount of agility would get her out
@@sofiabruiz17 them showing the blueprints of the vents and a air ship at the end which powder wanted to drive in the first episode of the arcane just supports her still being alive
It felt so good to see a villain redemption done right I got tired of seeing stories redeem villains and bringing up the concept while failing to realize that realistically it wouldn’t and shouldn’t end with a topical happy ending
Most likely, Ekko did leave with Jinx. The fact that Ekko is sitting alone on the rooftop doesn’t necessarily mean anything, as he burns only one piece of paper, not two, as he would if he were thinking about Heimerdinger and Jinx. At that moment, he realizes that Jinx is alive; otherwise, there would have been two pieces of paper. At the beginning of Episode 9, Ekko convinces her that it’s never too late to start over, that there are always people worth living for. At that moment, Jinx looks at Ekko and realizes that he is the person worth living for.
Can i also point out that when the pink shimmer line happens (ie jinx escaping) the lyric at that exact moment is "but i ran out" - might be a stretch but taken with all the other coincidences... #jinxisalive
I don't think Jinx is dead. 1:25 theres a red line going away. Before the explosion. Like Jinx zooming away. That ending where Caitlyn is checking out the blueprints? The white zeplin showing in the end? As a kid Powder saying she'll ride of those one day? Lead me to believe she survived & left. Also maybe Vander is gone but Warwick survived blast from Isha who exploded 3 of those hextech. He can surely heal from this.
She is alive, look at the Pink trail mark on the top right of the screen after vander blows candle. Thats the trailmark she leaves when she moves fast.
@JassLJ She wasn't even looking at her dad she suddenly cried and it was clear that warwick wasn't human anymore , Vander wasn't there anymore but in the most crucial moment of course Vi did something stupid like she always does , she cries even after jinx told her to move

@esmeraldagianneschi8620 Yeah she was. When she got up after laying there for who knows how long she saw him knocked out thinking he was dead. She was mourning and having flashbacks of when he "died" 7+ years ago.
@esmeraldagianneschi8620 she was looking at him. When she stood up she looked around and then she spotted him. We know that isn't Vander anymore Vi and Jinx didn't know. To them that is still Vander not Warwick. When she thought he died again she cried.
I really hate this scene but I have to admit it’s executed brilliantly. Jinx was suicidal every since ep 3 and when isha dies u could just see that both sides of powder and jinx was tired of all this nonsense, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Jinx THOUGHT that if she stayed with Vi, Vi would die around her since so many ppl have done so already. Also love the fact that Powder was the one she died as and not jinx, really shows that it was powder who saved Vi and not jinx
I think it's brilliant that the writers made us choose whether Jinx survived or not.

There is a pink lightining trail just when passing from 1:25 to 1:26 right before the explosion. It can be seen easier at 0,25 speed. I think that's Jinx escaping and she left the city with the air baloon we see at the end. Cait probably helped her to do it when they're talking at the cells. That's why she was scrolling down the schematic of Arcane Tower with a part of Jinx's bomb at her hand. Because Jinx told Vi, something like "You deserve to be happy and not worried about me everytime." And saw someone mentioning, in season 1 episode 1 she said "One day I'm gonna ride one of those." for air balloons.
Happiest Arcane scene:
guys relax, they didnt die. remember the announcer didnt ever say "an ally/enemy has been slain"
In the end Jinx was the one who protected the family 😢💔💔💔
in the pipes we trust 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Jinx Fought to the End 😭💙💜
After that Jinx goes to Demacia and lives happily after with Lux.
insert wild rift trailer
Or she dyes her hair orange and goes to space with Yasuo.
*screaming* DEMACIA!!! 😂
All the little hints that she might've survived are the only things holding my sanity together, I REFUSE to believe she's actually dead
Jinx ain’t dead, the purple light that shot out at the time of explosion 2:28, Cait smiling at the air passage anomaly with the monkey bomb in hand, a ship flying away and lastly foreshadowing from chapter 1 that she will fly one of the ships
Just when I thought those were finally going to get a happy ending, they go ahead and ruin it for me.
i think what REALLY got me was that Vi has now (at least in her mind) lost everybody. Milo, Vander, Powder and now finally, Jinx. That is so damn heartbreaking…
Jinx flew off on that airship.
Arcane is peak fiction it’s up there with deathnote
Both endings went down hill unfortunately
1:25 - 1:26
Jinx is still alive. She might as well be immortal or too stubborn to survive. With Shimmer in her veins, Powder / Jinx is the ultimate champion.
0:27 - the exact moment Vi understood that Jinx was going to let go
Jinx did the same thing as Christian Bale's Batman: "sacrifice herself" to start from scratch. I'm sure that in the next story her development will be identical to that of Kratos from GOW.
0:17 Look like Star Wars Reference.
If you look closely, she survived and escaped through a tunnel that Caitlyn sees in a schematic in the ending. She smiled knowing that Jinx is clever.
Fly high, jinx🕊️
Unless and until it's proven otherwise, Jinx is alive.
After that Jinx escapes she meets Ziggs and then went to a Pacific non violent paradise to live peacefully.
it’s heavily implied that Jinx survived the explosion.
As the explosion is going off we see a pink dash, which is a bit out of place considering at the time the explosion was blue. And we’ve seen instances of the same pink dash multiple times when jinx activates her shimmer so it’s kinda blatant that she got out.
Furthermore the scene where Cait is analysing the hexgates, the writers make it apparent to show the ventilation systems, or the tunnels. Why else would they show this other to emphasise the fact that Jinx shimmer dashed out through the vents?
And in the final scene, it’s a blatant callback to season 1 episode 1 where Powder said she wanted to “ride on of those one day” speaking of the exact same model of blimp we see in the final shots of the series.
I don’t think I’ve cried so much in my whole entire life, heck I don’t even think I’ve cried so much for a whole entire show before like this. Also, did anybody notice that jinx just went with her go to and just blew herself up like she’s tried to do multiple times during the series?
Jinx will never die.
"I'm always with you sis, even when we're worlds apart"
"Sometimes taking a leap forward means leaving a few things behind"
"The cycle only ends when you find the will to walk away"
She's alive, there's no doubt about that. I just hope there's another Isha out there for her.

Umm, no.
If LOL is anything to go by, she’s just crazier from this point forward.
If there’s another Isha out there for her, it wouldn’t be anything like her. That new Isha would be her own brand of crazy. Think Majima and Nishtani (Yakuza) rather than sister type thing.
I am adding one more comment to all the hints confirming that Jinx is alive... People forgetting another lead - She says it twice in that same episode - "I'm always with you sis." Jinx is restarting her life, but she will never leave vi behind. She will be back. We see this constantly throughout Arcane 1 and 2. Jinx is always there watching.
1- Only one true pink line coming out of the explosion in low playback speed that is 100 percent shimmer light - She escaped at last second.
2- Cait has a fragment of the grenade and is looking for hints/leads. She also might have found an answer to finding her.
3- Airship ending + THE END jinx style - hinting she is still running this show.
4- Jinx repeatedly told vi that she was always with her on the same episode.
5- A drastic change in Hairystle usually signals someone's Rebirth stage -- she is trying to change and build herself over again. The explosion at the end is a way for her to start fresh, making people believe she is gone. Not the first time she has done this too.
6- There might be a Swain Arcane spinoff due to seeing his Crow + Naxus ships - We might see jinx again later if a new show spinoff occurs.
7- People are forgetting how tough Shimmer has made her. She is pretty much superhuman. Not immortal but very tough.
For all talking about the purple flash, you also notice there was a yellow one ? That's right, this is not Jinx and Vander survival here, those trail are quite the opposite : they both get the explosion, leaving nothing but a trail ( yellow for Vander, Purple for Jinx ). They are both dead.
Caitlin smile cause she heard Vi singing, not because she find out Jinx is still alive. Why would she be happy about that ? And even so, why she wouldn't immediatly telling Vi about ?
It is far more logical that she made the ultimate sacrifice. Its a true end to her story, breaking the cycle like she wanted.
Jinx is alive and not even Viktor's mind control powers can convince me otherwise. 😭
0:02 “You shall not pass!!!”
0:34 “Fly, you fool!”
Writers chose a Christopher Nolan type of ending
KINO 🙌
JINX IS ALIVE
1:26.
A single “bolt” of lightning appears, but it’s pink. And after that, only blue lightning.
Yeah, looks like the trail mark she leaves when she moves fast. She is alive for sure.
I think both Jinx and Warwick survived. You can clearly see a pink streak leave the explosion BUT also a blue streak quickly after. Just a theory but that was deliberately put there for a reason.
Jinx : Gandalf
Warwick : Balrog
Jinx is still alive. But what she will do now is a mystery. 😎
“Always with you sis”😭😭😭
Jinx is alive we see her flash away into one of the vents whilst falling ! Using shimmer we see Caitlin seeing she could be there and her on a blimp at the end flying away with her text ? People saw this on theories !
Where is the text on the airship? I couldn’t find it
Jinx: “Goodbye sister. Let’s go Vander.”
Hearing Billie Eilish out of nowhere took me out of the moment
Everyone repeating over and over again that she's not dead are missing the point. The point is that sacrifice isn't suicide. She broke the cycle. She didn't go down there to die. She jumped to save VI. If she can manage to say goodbye to Vander and dip she has no obligation not to. You're not subverting the story, you've taken from it exactly what the creators put there for you because they knew you need this. Yes she's alive FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO CONTINUE SEEING HER. This is her exit into the sunset.
Problem is that uncertainty is worse, i preferred whether she lives or dies to be clear
The problem is that this is now league canon. So Jinx being alive means she goes to cause more chaos somewhere else. She is now literally someone else’s problem. And I mean every word of that. She doesn’t change. If anything, she’s crazier.
She might as well have died. Unless something changes, her being more like powder and vulnerable never occurs again. Every word out of her mouth after “always with you, sis” is more batshit insanity.
People say Powder died and Jinx was left in her place after Act 1 of season one. That’s not true, it happened right here.
But that’s where LOL happens I suppose. To be totally fair, the rest of the world is its own breed of crazy. Powder would never survive Bilgwater but I’m sure that place and Jinx would get alone fine.
Take from that what you will.
Le ballon volant à la fin de l'épisode c'est un signe elle est en vie... Elle l'avait dit dans le premier épisode qu'elle monterai dans une de ces machines 🎉🎉🎉🎉
In Every Episode, i always cry for Jinx. Even if she turn into Evil person. She just need her Families, who ever they are. Be it Silco, Violet, Ekko or Vander.
Very hard to see but between 1:25 and 1:26 you can see a pink line. That's jinx. she was able to escape thanks to shimmer making her extremely agile and swift. Might be a Season 3 because of that
There isnt a season 3. It has been confirmed for months
Also, that makes no sense, vander was grabbing unto her tightly, the only way to get lose is for vander to die in the explosion which would have killed her too. No amount of agility would get her out
@@sofiabruiz17 them showing the blueprints of the vents and a air ship at the end which powder wanted to drive in the first episode of the arcane just supports her still being alive
@@sofiabruiz17 Wait and see, I guess.
Yes but she's at least breaking the sound barrier with that speed though.😂😂😂
@@josephstalin5414 Bro turned into a fighter-jet
if only jinx and vi have at least one sec happy ending together.....
I’m crying 😢😭🥹❤️✨ Best Serie Ever 🙌🏻🔥😎🤩
I cried so hard, and I was watching it with my friends, so everyone was crying
1:26
Sigue viva 😮😮😮😮🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Ese rastro de shimmer es de ella ❤❤❤
As the song says , we should probably let go.. i will miss arcane, a lot
She sacrificed herself twice!
It felt so good to see a villain redemption done right I got tired of seeing stories redeem villains and bringing up the concept while failing to realize that realistically it wouldn’t and shouldn’t end with a topical happy ending
Nothing ever stays dead
If vi had just listened to jinx that vander was gone this would not have happened and they would have had a happy ending 😢
Jinx was the reason Vander died, Vander was the reason Jinx died😢
Most likely, Ekko did leave with Jinx. The fact that Ekko is sitting alone on the rooftop doesn’t necessarily mean anything, as he burns only one piece of paper, not two, as he would if he were thinking about Heimerdinger and Jinx. At that moment, he realizes that Jinx is alive; otherwise, there would have been two pieces of paper.
At the beginning of Episode 9, Ekko convinces her that it’s never too late to start over, that there are always people worth living for. At that moment, Jinx looks at Ekko and realizes that he is the person worth living for.
Ekko is also too calm for an Ekko who just lost Powder right after gaining her back
For broken souls, burnig minds , corrupted mosnters
Theres no other path to redepmtion
But That of Sacrifice
Can i also point out that when the pink shimmer line happens (ie jinx escaping) the lyric at that exact moment is "but i ran out" - might be a stretch but taken with all the other coincidences... #jinxisalive
1:26 purple streak escaping explosion
I see what you’re tryin netflix
I don't think Jinx is dead. 1:25 theres a red line going away. Before the explosion. Like Jinx zooming away. That ending where Caitlyn is checking out the blueprints? The white zeplin showing in the end? As a kid Powder saying she'll ride of those one day? Lead me to believe she survived & left. Also maybe Vander is gone but Warwick survived blast from Isha who exploded 3 of those hextech. He can surely heal from this.
Idk what made me love Jinx💙 more
NOOOOOOOOO! IT'S NOT FAIR! YOU CAN'T KILL HER OFF! I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THIS! NOOOO!
She went out as she lived: in an explosion of colors 😢
Edit: nevermind I’m convinced she’s still out there!
She is alive, look at the Pink trail mark on the top right of the screen after vander blows candle. Thats the trailmark she leaves when she moves fast.
yes she went out .... the city that is , for her to stop the cycle . everyone will move on . the city , her sister and herself etc etc .
fuck man,i don`t know . after i watched the show,I feel so empty ,sad,i wanna cry ,but i can`t. i don`t know,its a wierd feeling.
SHE'S ALIVE
Well, at least she left with a boom💥
Jink is adorable 😍 and sexy when she shoots the "Pow Pow." Her going nuts blasting that machine gun makes each episode epic.
Vi pnly had to do ONE THING , move . Of course she didnt
Can you blame her? Wouldn't you want to see your dad?
@JassLJ She wasn't even looking at her dad she suddenly cried and it was clear that warwick wasn't human anymore , Vander wasn't there anymore but in the most crucial moment of course Vi did something stupid like she always does , she cries even after jinx told her to move

@esmeraldagianneschi8620 Yeah she was. When she got up after laying there for who knows how long she saw him knocked out thinking he was dead. She was mourning and having flashbacks of when he "died" 7+ years ago.
@esmeraldagianneschi8620 she was looking at him. When she stood up she looked around and then she spotted him. We know that isn't Vander anymore Vi and Jinx didn't know. To them that is still Vander not Warwick. When she thought he died again she cried.
I really hate this scene but I have to admit it’s executed brilliantly. Jinx was suicidal every since ep 3 and when isha dies u could just see that both sides of powder and jinx was tired of all this nonsense, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Jinx THOUGHT that if she stayed with Vi, Vi would die around her since so many ppl have done so already. Also love the fact that Powder was the one she died as and not jinx, really shows that it was powder who saved Vi and not jinx
so the makers of this show made two timelines and neither of them have *both* vi and jinx alive and happy.
Multiverse of jinxs coming soon?
Which is better Jinx blowing up a grenade or Vander blowing a candle? God damn Jinx ur so badass 😭
Alternate Title: Jinx Fakes her own death
We can only hope….
