I think whats also really cool is how the scene changes to Marcus and it looks like "Enemy" is played not only as a backround music for us viewers but also in his place in a radio or something. The same thing happened in act 1 when in one scene with Vander in his bar we could hear "Playground" being played in a radio. Its like Arcane soundrack is not only made of songs that fit the scene but also songs that are popular in a world of Arcane itself. I think its a really cool detail.
This is called Diegetic music or source music. Is music in a drama (film or video game) that is part of the fictional setting and so, presumably, is heard by the characters. The term refers to diegesis, a style of storytelling.
I also like the fact that the reverb effect makes it seem like the song being played in the slums is so powerful that even the wealthier districts can hear it. Almost gives that effect of the slums being a problem that can't be ignored.
I actually really like this scene. They are setting up the bar, and switching between characters and the bar, building anticipation and the song has a different, but relevant, meaning for each character. And Vi's walk just from the way she is moving shows her pure rage, but in that bar they are just playing music or doing their thing unaware someone is coming wanting expressly to wreck the SHIT out of some people.
You know.. I never did listen to Imagine Dragons and I always skipped the intro, but this scene changed how I feel about the song and I came to respect Imagine Dragon for delivering an amazing song to an even more amazing series.
My head canon is that seraphine Uses the Hextech Crysrals to amplify her emphatetic powers Which makes her softly brainwash the people the watches her perfomance to be addicted or like it more than usual
Honestly tho yeah. Like usually the trope is the friend doesn’t find out about their other friend being in some kinda trouble till like wayyyy later then it’s too late. Granted it progressed pretty bad for victor but jayce still went to him.
My favourite part of this scene was the camera just keeping focus on Vi's glare at 0:58 and you can palpably feel the seething rage in her eyes. The animators absolutely outdid themselves on the facial expressions, how they make an animated character seem so humanly emotive as if it was live action
But when Viktor asks how much time he has left....... and the next cut is the taroc cards thrown on the table. of -Death- and -Magician- Fu cking hell goosebumps bonanza!
I’m pretty meh about Imagine Dragons. Like they are decent, but not exactly playlist worthy in my opinion. Enemy though… Enemy is something special and is a really standout song from them in my opinion
I think one of the best things this does is set up what Zaun is like now. Playground set up Zaun in Act 1 and Enemy sets up Zaun in act 2. There very distinct, and this scene does a great job of showing that I feel
People think this is random, but EVERYONE who is a league fan loves and appreciates this shit. Totally worth it, Riot made the right decision to include this.
Just seeing Vi hunting Sevika in time with Enemy is really badass. This’ll sound dumb, but this scene made wish there’s an Arkham like game where you play as Vi, fighting through the streets of Zaun
How are people complaining about the fact the song doesn't make sense because Viktor is dying when the song LITERALLY ends when he's on the screen? The song was good for the surroundings that Vi was walking through to get to Sevika.
Such a cool bar scene! I love when Vi walks into the bar and sees the group of those boys in the back of the bar. then later, they are actually playing music at the bar. i think it’s cool how even though vi is at the bar they are also at the bar playing music to us and everyone at the bar! amazing work the imagine dragons!
I need more of Savika. Love her character. She's such badass. She talked very clear. She's loyal to the cause, not to people, that's what special from her.
I love how the artists are physically present next to the zaunites while in Piltover the song sounds like it’s being played on a radio. To the undercity this song is a expression of the pain and outrage they have to live with everyday, while to the topsiders it would just be some passing entertainment.
Man…. This scene… gotta love it when Imagine Dragons song kicked in And the fact for this.. When Jinx was sinking into the water “Powder is now gone, Jinx was in control” 😢❤
Seriously! I love the episodes last week(?), I catched a Pentakill Logo being tattooed on someone, and them being shown instead of a hidden cameo. And don't get me started with the Janna (forgot what her full name was. 😅) art when the scene where Vi jumps of and it shows on the background. Goodness gracious. I just love them. 😍
One of the best scnes in the show i can never imagine anyone hating imagine dragins for this. LET THEM HAVE THIS BEAUTIFUL MOMENT! And it fits the show so frickin well
People keep saying that the diagetic and non diagetic music like this of the series doesnt fit or its weird but like *have ya not seen the LoL Trailers?* its the perfect omage to all the hard work they put into and i thinknits fucking awesome
There’s something that I did not understand here. ... (SPOILERS EP06). At 0:12, we can clearly see Jinx’s eyes becoming pink, showcasing the fact that Powder "died" for good. Yet, when she reunites with her sister afterwards, her eyes are still normal and she doesn’t really act any different. Why is that ? I do not play the game so I’m not familiar with the original lore.. but I could’ve sworn I’ve seen multiple fan arts where her eyes are always this color and are a part of her persona.. so why isn’t it the case here ?
Just like with vi... The shimmer only made her eyes pink for a split second... In game she has permanent pink eyes... Maybe we will see how she gets to that point
Two things we learned this year:
1. Tobias Fate is canon in the Pentakill universe.
2. Imagine Dragons is canon.
Imagine Chemdrakes
Necrit is canon in Ruined king
Love it imagine dragons slaps and twisted fate is my favorite
And this guy has their voice
Arcane isn't canon. Riot said it multpile times.
When it is supposed to say:
´Oh, the misery´ they show us a very sick Viktor
I love that detail
God I love this series
That's the lead singer of imagine dragons but animated
@@thatkindcoder7510 in the ending
Also "tell you you're the greatest" and the scene after jayce left
One minute later:
Viktor: "I'm dying, Jayce"
Music: *"Oh the misery!"*
That was a really poor editing choice in that scene.
I really like the reverb effect starting 1:03 . Feels like the music is so loud it reached Piltover.
like it comes from underneath .. god this's perfect
Isn't it just diegetic audio? (He's listening to it in the room, I mean.)
No lol. It's a large room and the music is being played in one part of the room. As simple as that
I think it comes from a type of radio.
Hadnt noticed nice!
so no one talks about how cool vi walks sheesh
The animation is just sooo daammn gooood
It's really detailed. irl if you don't walk like that as confidence personified in that kind of places, you're a target!

I like how Vi walking through Zaun by herself this time is a parallel to when she was walking through it with Mylo, Claggor, and Powder.
people really making a big deal of seeing imagine dragons in the show. bruh let them have this they deserve the cameo foe the amazing song.
They're more canon than shaco now
Plus it’d be a waste since they already made a rig model for the whole band
your sentence makes no sense
@@killuazoldyck169 i take it you don't watch necrit
Who tf is upset about their cameo? Lmao I haven't seena single comment about that.
You know.. I never did listen to Imagine Dragons and I always skipped the intro, but this scene changed how I feel about the song and I came to respect Imagine Dragon for delivering an amazing song to an even more amazing series.
the intro is sick AF! definetely should watch it if you haven't
1:03 me at 3am still listening to this song
Dude same.
I love when the lead singer's eyes totally track Vi as she walks by at 0:31.
Saaame
Its official, Imagine Dragon is canon
Makes me wonder why Seraphine even popular
Imagine dragons>Seraphine
She got them Piltover connections and pulls that regular Zaunites don't. Emphasis on regular, not powerful masterminds like Silco.
My head canon is that seraphine
Uses the Hextech Crysrals to amplify her emphatetic powers
Which makes her softly brainwash the people the watches her perfomance to be addicted or like it more than usual
Imagine Dragod
ZzZeraphine
china
I find it touching Jayce left his girl to be with his bro Viktor after learning that he’s dying.
Bros before hoes.
Love is temporary bros are eternal
after his girl told him to
he’s a true chad
Honestly tho yeah. Like usually the trope is the friend doesn’t find out about their other friend being in some kinda trouble till like wayyyy later then it’s too late. Granted it progressed pretty bad for victor but jayce still went to him.

FRR OMG THATS SO GOOD.
As soon as I heard the opening downbeat in this scene I began to lose my shit. I fully lost it once Imagine Dragons came on screen.
this might be the first time ive ever read someone losing their shit over anyting imagine dragons related....
@@jpcoqueran is imagine dragons that hated over in america? cuz this shit was great imo
bro they actually made it happen i was so happy XDD
@@sorcierenoire8651 they are fine but considered bland and super by the book artists by some. That's all lol
LMAO ME TOO
Arcane will never not be cool. The writing is perfectly curated and synced to what the character(s) are feeling, its fantastic
This scene gave me goosebumps
But when Viktor asks how much time he has left....... and the next cut is the taroc cards thrown on the table. of -Death- and -Magician-
Fu cking hell goosebumps bonanza!
My favorite part of the scene is 0:57. I love the expression that Vi gives towards Sevika. The pure rage in her eyes with the song gives me goosebumps
Even if you dont like imagine dragons this sequence is absolutely incredible and stunning.
I’m pretty meh about Imagine Dragons. Like they are decent, but not exactly playlist worthy in my opinion. Enemy though… Enemy is something special and is a really standout song from them in my opinion
Wait, there's people that DON'T like Imagine Dragons? Who are they???
@@Concepcion30 ikr!!!
@@noorakongas2109 ei väliä kuka on jos on suomalainen niin on pakko olla vihaamatta imagine dragonsia
@@SomeCowguy ihan sama mistä maasta on😂 miten voi vihata Imagine Dragonsia?😂
1:19 Nobody's talking about how when Mel turns to see where Jayce is the song also says "but once you turn"
I think one of the best things this does is set up what Zaun is like now. Playground set up Zaun in Act 1 and Enemy sets up Zaun in act 2. There very distinct, and this scene does a great job of showing that I feel
It's amazing they kept the animation models of Imagine Dragons so they can cameo in the series🥰
I cannot and never will be able to express properly how much i love the fact the beat enters on Powders eyes
Imagine dragons band has more lore than Shaco himself hehe
good cuz shaco isnt interesting at all. Ill keep waiting for his complete character and lore redesign
Maybe silco = shaco :)
Concordo

Bro that's not dumb at all... that's actually genius! I would love to see a game like that! I guarantee you it'd be way better than LoL.
Dude, I want that so bad.
A third person Arkham like game with the ability to play as the people of piltover and zaun
I'LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK
My favorite scene so far, so much energy and passion behind it. Truly an amazing show
Imagine dragons are truly cannons now. So, we can say this in a serious way.
Imagine dragons 1 - Shaco 0
How are people complaining about the fact the song doesn't make sense because Viktor is dying when the song LITERALLY ends when he's on the screen? The song was good for the surroundings that Vi was walking through to get to Sevika.
Well you can tell them that the song is focused on the two, not the two on the top side. :D
true masterpiece
Such a cool bar scene! I love when Vi walks into the bar and sees the group of those boys in the back of the bar. then later, they are actually playing music at the bar. i think it’s cool how even though vi is at the bar they are also at the bar playing music to us and everyone at the bar! amazing work the imagine dragons!
Having them in that scene just made it so good! The part of the scene where that dweller is smoking is just so sick
I'd like to make a petition that any artist who makes a song for any show or movie gets a cameo in said show or movie. This is dope
I need more of Savika. Love her character. She's such badass. She talked very clear. She's loyal to the cause, not to people, that's what special from her.
Wait…imagine dragons is CANON?! OAO
@Blustar_5 and who cares about Tron?
Damn Vi being badass with that expression in her face
Series is so fucking good holy shit
I stil cant belive Jayce bangt Mel xD
true god. but even more, true bro.
I mean can you blame him?
I can believe
Dude Imagine Dragons is my favorite band! I loved seeing them in the show!
🙂same🙂
There's something about licensed music in fiction transitioning back and forth from diegetic and non-diegetic that really tickles me
I mean is it really licensed when all of the songs, including this one, we’re made by the show
@@gwyngwyn_2416 yeah not sure what to call it to distinguish it from score and normal licensed music…
I love how the artists are physically present next to the zaunites while in Piltover the song sounds like it’s being played on a radio.
To the undercity this song is a expression of the pain and outrage they have to live with everyday, while to the topsiders it would just be some passing entertainment.
That is the SMOOTHEST TRANSITION INTO A MUSIC VIDEO-LIKE THING I HAD EVER FUCKING SEEN
This universe is SO RICH, and the thing is, it’s only depicting ZAUN and I’m already having a loregasm
That Viktor scene was just a few seconds but still made me cry.
Was trying to screen record this very scene with no luck, thank you!
Pretty nice seeing Imagine Dragons in a series like this
when this scene came on i was fr jumping on the couch yelling "IMAGINE DRAGONS IS CANON IN THE ARCANE UNIVERSE"
0:39 is when I just started vibin
Man…. This scene… gotta love it when Imagine Dragons song kicked in
And the fact for this..
When Jinx was sinking into the water
“Powder is now gone, Jinx was in control” 😢❤
Vi is walking like a gangster man she is badass 😂😂🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Got chills at this part
MASTERPIECE .
That scene is awesome
I honestly wish they were more in the scene.
Like it was really really cool
I had chills bro.
1:20 Mel seems a Barbie here
New Champion - Imagine Dragons
My favorite scene of the show
glad to hear that god is enjoying this show
Unlike the game, this is peak fiction🙏
FN LOVE THIS SCENE AS IF THIS SONG WAS PERFECTLY MADE FOR THIS SCENE.
Seriously! I love the episodes last week(?), I catched a Pentakill Logo being tattooed on someone, and them being shown instead of a hidden cameo. And don't get me started with the Janna (forgot what her full name was. 😅) art when the scene where Vi jumps of and it shows on the background. Goodness gracious. I just love them. 😍
This show was awesome
Adding them in the show is such a master touch
The transition really felt like a: “when the main character’s theme kicks in” moment.
"That was harrowing. Time for a music video break, boys!"
"No, wa-"
"TOO LATE. Hit it!"
One of the best scnes in the show i can never imagine anyone hating imagine dragins for this. LET THEM HAVE THIS BEAUTIFUL MOMENT! And it fits the show so frickin well
I can watch this a million times
Honestly I think having them in actually adds to the immersion
1:04 you are unable to sleep right now Imagine Dragons are putting out a banger
Hey look! She is playing cards with the same guy Vi and her group beat up in ep 1, how interesting.
This goes to show Imagine dragons are more canon than that "popstar" from piltover lol
Breathtaking
This whole scene is supercool ❤
0:56 Kinda reminds me of TCW Anakin for a second.
Having heard the song before ever seeing this scene… it is almost exactly how I pictured it in my head
People keep saying that the diagetic and non diagetic music like this of the series doesnt fit or its weird but like *have ya not seen the LoL Trailers?* its the perfect omage to all the hard work they put into and i thinknits fucking awesome
exquisita cinematica, arte puro
you forgot the part we're Vi knee punched Sevika
I LOVED THIS!!
This is fire
My favorite song and that is in fashion.
I’m gonna jam this song everyday at the gym for the rest of my days
Orochinho foi muito humilde em permitir que o Imagine Dragons cantasse a canção dele 😍❤️❤️❤️
Amo como entra Vi en esa escena, o la escena en general ❤️
There’s something that I did not understand here.
...
(SPOILERS EP06).
At 0:12, we can clearly see Jinx’s eyes becoming pink, showcasing the fact that Powder "died" for good. Yet, when she reunites with her sister afterwards, her eyes are still normal and she doesn’t really act any different.
Why is that ? I do not play the game so I’m not familiar with the original lore.. but I could’ve sworn I’ve seen multiple fan arts where her eyes are always this color and are a part of her persona.. so why isn’t it the case here ?
Just like with vi... The shimmer only made her eyes pink for a split second... In game she has permanent pink eyes... Maybe we will see how she gets to that point
I think we should wait one more week to see what about the eyes 👀
it's not stable
She’s clearly still sane enough, it’s not like she’s been brainwashed immediately by Silco
I think the eyes from what i observed are used to show case the mental state of jinx
One of the many examples how a song can impact a scene
I was expecting J.I.D to randomly pop up during this scene 💀
That was actually pretty clever
When the band came into the scene I was like they look and sound sort of like imagine dragons. . . It is imagine dragons 😂😂
best Western animation ever made
Arcane is the best movie/film
Vi walking in that hoodie looks fucking cool
Idk why but this scene made me appreciate Marcus
somehow I didn't hear the look out for yourself until I heard it on my phone
Vi is so hot
al fin pude verlo en 8k sin que se bugueara mi pc
0:58
My favorite part :3
So awesome🤩
It’s confirmed: Imagine Dragons is canonically part of the LoLverse
I really want this series on Blu-ray
nunca estuvo esa guitarra en las 3 versiones de enemy, pero me gusta 0:38
