    Vi asking Cait not to change while in-turn she herself end up changing.
    Just chefs kiss!
    Cant wait to see how further down Vi and Cait will go in the next Acts.
    Especially now since Vi is going through a somewhat similar transformation Powder went through becoming Jinx (again, more parallels)
    Definitely wanna see that Vandar video!

    Jinx: “Who would you be without me, Vi?”
    Vi: “Time to find out.”
    Caitlyn: “Vi... all I ever wanted... was the survival of my people... You must see why I had to betray you.”
    Vi: “You didn’t betray me. You betrayed yourself.”
    Caitlyn: “No, Vi!!!”

    Lovely to see you step into reviewing stuff outside of the Transformers comics, especially Arcane. It's a nice step forward, and people are always welcome to show their analysis on shows already with many people making their analysis. A Vander and Silco analysis would be lovely, especially if you include Sevika, a character who has been surprisingly inspired by both in her arc, in a more active role. Also, I need to hear your thoughts about the new Skybound issue. Maybe a video on Megatron, and his corruptive influence on Optimus and Starscream, and the seperation of his mercy towards those who help him, and his abusiveness to the Decepticon warriors.

    Jinx: "We were sisters once!"
    Vi: *"Once."*

      Wouldn't that be the opposite? I mean, Jinx accepted getting killed by Vi and what she must do, while Vi hesitated, clearly fucked up at the fact that her fragile, sad sister is still in there. Plus, Vi being on the more villainous side of things, considering she's helping Cait, who's spiralling into facism.

      @@egbertmilton4003 Except that Vi is still the one with moral high ground here because Caitlyn left her so she’s now on her own. She isn’t on the same side as the Piltocer fascist anymore. Plus, she wasn’t the one who uses lethal force unnecessarily so she’s more like Optimus.
      Jinx, on the other hand, is a full blown mass murdering psychopath, so she’s more of a Megatron.

    Vi is my favorite character from this show and is one of my top 5 favorite female characters
    Dear God, I pray she gets some kind of happy ending at the end of this but I’m scared

    A video on Vander and Silco sounds cool, I like them both a lot. I think Both were really great characters and I hope we get to see their history in Act II or Act III. I remember from your 10k live stream that you wrote your own transformers story, and I’m excited to listen to it if you make a video on it!

    This is an excellent video. It’s too bad that it didn’t get as much views as it deserves. You did an excellent job at pointing out that Jinx, no matter how hard Vi tries to deny it, is her sister. And Act 2 doubles down on this fact, along with the fact that Jinx herself isn’t entirely a monster. Even though she is generally not a very good person, there is some goodness within her that motivated her to both shelter and take care of Isha. Along with the fact that she saved Vi from her self destructive life as a pit fighter, and with what we are shown with how she wants to help Vander and reunite her family. This to me is entirely in character for her. And the show writers executed this dang near perfectly.
    Which is why in Act 2, episode 5 is my one of my favorite episodes of Arcane.
    However, what is less in character is in how the writers of Arcane encountered severe writing issues in episode 6 though. I sincerely enjoyed the episode, but the 180 turn that Cait makes to being automatically on Vi’s side and passively letting go her once strong hatred for Jinx. In my opinion, this is not at all in character for her. And while it is in character that deep down she regretted deeply the pain she inflicted upon Vi, they shouldn’t have made her 180 change happen so quickly. And they in my opinion shouldn’t have made Vi so forgiving of Caitlyn either. All things considered. Cait literally hit her in the same place that Sevika stabbed her in season one, looked down on her with contempt and extreme anger, and actively chose not to dwell on any feelings of guilt in that moment. Not to mention the fact that Cait literally just left Vi down in the bottom of a pit. And this was all after Cait risked shooting both Vi and a Child, just to get to and kill Jinx.
    It’s so strange to me how Caitlyn goes good even after in the shows very intro, she is foreshadowed to go down a path similar to Macbeth, with the finger crown and the red/blood on her hands.
    Edit: Here’s a photo, if you don’t know what I’m talking about with Caitlyn being foreshadowed to be like Macbeth: share.icloud.com/photos/0caWFtaJc_K_gIcThIT22vt_Q

      Thanks for the love! Sadly, as with many things on YT, branching out into a new space outside of what you already make can be a death sentence. I'm sure this video was not promoted to my subscribers simply because it did not fit the same mould as my other videos
