    Another key information is that during the funeral section, Eko only burned one paper which is from my understanding is meant to signify Heimadinger because if it’s meant to signify Jinx then are you telling me that he isn’t mourning his mentor? The studio knows what they are doing to keep giving so many hints

      @Duriboh  3 дня назад +50

      Oh damn, that's a great one!
      I agree. They left it open ended because Jinx quickly became a fan-favorite among Arcane fans and has always been a fan favorite among League players.
      Killing her off would be a bad play financially.

      I mean Technichally Heimerdinger didn’t die, he’s just living his life in the ,,better” universe where hextech wasn’t invented and echo was there too so he knows that the universe not dangerous and he’s living a good live there so he just burned one for jinx also why would he burn the paper for heimerdinger at the place where he was with powder?

    Also check the very final frame, it flashes "The End" But in the style of Jinx, take that how you will, but for me it means she's very much alive and saying this is the end of jinx and a new stage in her life.

    After a full day of thinking and roominating on the ending, I realized that every charater kinda ended there arc's.
    VI: Found a place to stay.
    Jinx: Broke the cycle by leaving Zoan and Piltover behind.
    Vik, and J: Got there partner back and is now in space.
    Singed: Revived his Daughter.
    Kit Kat: Is a bit harder since I can't really descrive her Character arc... I'd say that she grew more capable as a leader?
    Himer: Found his will to live, or how to live.
    Ekko: Saved the people he loved. I also feel like him aswell as Jinx are now starting a new Arc.
    Mel: Stood up to her mom, and fought for what she thought was right.
    And Vander... Vander: Finally got to rest.

    my theory is jinx put the bomb into vander's mouth and use the explosion for her escape from vander's grip. still no idea how she's landing tho but i believe she survived. movie rule: if there's no body found, means that the character is not dead lol

    I like to think that the sequence when vander puts out the light singified that last semblance of vander in warwick, like at the last minute he remembers who he is and loosens his grip on jinx or maybe throws her towards the vent allowing her to shimeroo out of there...

      @Duriboh because as far as i can tell that was a very long jump, even with shimmeriods that jump would be impossible without any assistance, also something that singed talked about vander in act 2 ep 6, that vander has this indomitable "will" and high tolerance for pain that made him the perfect specimen for his expirements...

    • @Duriboh
      @Duriboh  3 дня назад +10

      ​@@aldwinjasperjoniega8973 Yes, I actually thought back to that dialogue too, however Singed later mentioned that there would be no way of saving Vander's psyche while the beast exists.
      The short story called "The Host" from Singed's old bio also has a similar theme.

  • @Memorie
    @Memorie 3 дня назад +64

    I guess this opens up the possibility for Riot to introduce Jinx in the spinoff, which would be a smart move seeing as Jinx is the fan-favourite and having her appear in the spinoff or some other medium would be a very easy way for Riot to garner hype.
    Though I disagree with Caitlyn smirking being evidence; I'm 99% sure she just smiled because Vi was singing.

    • @Duriboh
      @Duriboh  3 дня назад +11

      I hear you.
      I actually hate the fact that they kept her alive. Her death would've been more meaningful in my opinion.
      About the smile ~ I think she smiled because she realized that Vi finally found peace in knowing that Jinx is 'dead'. Also the toy thingy was too big of a hint, it just means the explosion wasn't big enough or destructive enough or how else would the gadget survive.
      It's easier to deal with grief than negligence; and Cait prefers a grieving Vi than a Vi that will never know peace because Powder/Jinx is out there somewhere.

    • @Oscar-bj9ut
      @Oscar-bj9ut 3 дня назад +12

      ⁠​⁠​⁠ I hear you both and disagree. If I may:
      Jinx choosing to break the cycle has so much meaning. Sacrificing her relationship with Vi, for Vi is so bitter sweet. But it leaves them both having fresh starts. Both can now find peace. In that same way Jinx did for all intents and purposes die. But Powder lives on, on the air ship she always dreamed of flying on.
      I also hope Riot will stay ambitious with their next project and not just follow Jinx. If anyone from Arcane they should follow Mel or Heimer. Ideally they leave these characters to rest for another series. But the truth is another project this expensive and high qualityis unlikely unfortunately😢. However I'd love to be proven wrong. As they have proven me and many other wrong once before.
      What a wonderful journey.

      @@Duriboh The thing for me is that act 3 just has way too many hints at her leaving Zaun. Ep 7- Ekko and Vander telling Powder to leave to fulfill her full potential, Ep 8- The whole Silco speech of walking away and Jinx saying 'You are never giving up on me' to Vi and Vi telling her to use her explosives for good, Ep 9- Ekko saving Jinx from killing herself and convincing her that life is worth living and also that death isn't a way to repay her sins. And S1 Ep 3, Powder thought Vi had died at the end only for her to be alive, and now at the end Jinx is alive while Vi and we thought she was dead. Narratively speaking her being alive is a given.

    Another key is the music! "Dear friend across the river" is another music theme for Jinx in the series, and it plays in the moment when the aircraft leaves, and it plays in major, leaving somewhat of uprising mood. So i think, since Fortiche makes no accidental details in the series, all this sums up to the fact she somehow survived

      I hear you & I see your point.
      However, I would say this. There's no purpose in making that the final shot of a finale if it didn't bear a significance.
      They had so many good "final shots", but it just kept going and showing us more stuff.
      If it served purpose, it wouldn't be there ~ because very much like you, I thought the same, and thought maybe it just meant that "Zaun and Piltover" went back to "business as usual", but why would you show it like that in a clear sky when there's so many better things you can end on.
      I would've liked Arcane better if Jinx had actually died. Good deaths are part of any story, and that would've been a good and meaningful one ~ but I will settle only because of that Silco dialogue.

    Hear me out! What if Arcane has ended, closing hextech/magic chapter (referring to title), but as Cait said in the end, "our story isn't over yet", it doesn't necessarily means that we will not see characters from the show. "Our story isn't over yet" can be related to any character from Piltover. In the end we are pretty sure Jinx is alive (1 - we don't see the body 2 - cait looking at hexgates plans 3 - air ship flying off -Powder in 1 episode said she will fly one of this);Also where is Singed? He healed his dauther and probably is still experimenting on Warwick (Vander), in lore he was working for Noxus. Mel is also important, we can see her on her way to Noxus (probably), we are also kinda introduced to Swain (Raven with red eyes), he is the Great General in Noxus. What if Jinx is heading for Noxus too? Mel with Jinx will meet there? Maybe, just maybe they will need help and will ask for that help Piltover? Just maybe the trio will be once again togheter. Of course i also hope ekko will join them. Just theory...

    @starviper6053 3 дня назад +8

    I think that when Vander blew the candle out means that his human part was one last time seen, maybe the moment he threw Jinx in to the vent. He will never be Vander again, only Warwick “ The Wrath of Zaun!” Jinx did most likely not die, because the scene with the Blimp and Caitlyn waching the blueprint of the Tower would not have made sense. Also both Vander’s body and Jinx’s were not found. The only thing they found was the cap of Jinx’s grenade. So they both escaped. One probably in Zaun, while the other is left Piltover.

    The fact that Caitlyn is holding Jinx's toy, tells us they sent out a search party after Jinx. They searched for her but couldn't find her body. That is why Caitlyn was searching the Hextech gate blueprints. She wanted to know where Jinx could have escaped through.

    I'm gonna go further. As we know, Cait is the who set up Vi to free Jinx from the prison. But what if Cait not only knows that Jinx is alive, she is the one who managed to get that flying ship in the end for Jinx (and Ekko?!) to leave Piltover and start a new life? What if Cait is the final piece for the redemption of Vi, Jinx (and Ekko)? Maybe that's why Vi said she is Cait's "dirt under her nails"?

    I believe that Jinx is alive. I think she Wants us to think she is dead. She wants the people of Piltover and Zaun to forget about her. That is why in the end frame, the "The End" in her style signifies that this is 'the end' of Jinx in this region of Runeterra. A part of me also thinks she is dead simply because it aligns with the direction of her story with Isha, the final song of Jinx, and that scene of Vander blowing the candle. Overall, for me, I think it is an open-ended ending from the directors so that other directors of future League shows could use it as a way to bring Jinx into their stories or not.

    I'll be honest, I didn't see or notice most of those things. But after seeing them in this context, it's kinda obvious that Jinx is actually alive lol. Honestly not a bad thing imo. I think if they were gonna kill her off, they'd have to do it pretty seriously. Even Vander probably isn't dead. I'm pretty sure he will actually become Warwick in the future, instead of a pseudo-warwick he is at the moment. Maybe the Vander in him is dead and gone, but his body is very much still alive. Maybe it'll land down in some toxic sludge, maybe Singed will find him again, who knows? Also kinda funny that Singed actually 'won' in the end.

      Singed is the goat I fear.
      And yes, they made Arcane with 'Arcane will not be canon in mind' and switched after season 1, because Riot saw massive mainstream success with Arcane. Therefore, they had to walk the fine line of 'not killing any champions off' or they would create pickrate/playrate issues for existing champions. I hate it, but it's peak, so I'll give it a pass.

She placed the hex orb from Vi’s gloves into Warwick’s mouth this somehow kept him in a sleeping state. She took him and left on the ship. Now she’s gonna travel the world to find a way to cure Vander. You’re welcome.

    That jinx death is ambiguous is not uniek all champions deaths are somewhat ambiguous. All there deaths are through disintergration, teleportation or explosions. I think that show wise they where meant to die but with the show becoming the lore they made it very difficult to outright kill champions. But this was a problem from season 1 many thought that champions where save because this was there backstory that also the purpose of heimerdingers death to show champions weren't save but they never pulled through and showed the death body of champion

    • @Duriboh
      @Duriboh  3 дня назад +1

      So incredibly well put.
      Having crystal clear deaths would create pickrate/playrate issues for existing champions and Arcane was made with "Arcane is not canon" mindset, but then they saw massive mainstream success with Season 1 and had to pivot away from ever showing clear cut character removals of existing champions/characters.
      I understand their mindset and thought process, and honestly it makes sense from a business/financial standpoint, but I hate it from a "lore enjoyer" perspective. I love good storytelling.

      I feel like the league community is very observant with those details and have been for quite some time. If I had to guess, I would say that the majority of the Arcane fans are probably not the same, and dealing with Arcane is probably their first experience with detailed cinematics of Riot.
      Not a bad thing in anyway, but we're more passionate because of our emotional connection to the universe of Runeterra which makes us *see more* of these things.

    Question if the little purple line indicates she's alive what narrative purpose does it serve for her to allow VI to think she's dead? Im personally fine interpreting that she's dead but I know people dont like bittersweet endings so I guess the writers had to put some indication that she could be alive

    • @Duriboh
      @Duriboh  3 дня назад

      Jhin has a dialogue that goes: "Life has no meaning, but your death shall." Jinx's death would've been more meaningful rather then her living on.
      I understand that they did not killed off any "champions" in a crystal clear way because it could affect the playerbase on their pickrate/playrate; and it's a good move financially given how much of a massive success Arcane has become.
      But as a fan of good storytelling, I wish it wasn't an open ending...

    • @georgex231

      Vi would leave again to search for her and would leave Caitlyn in this way too.. Caitlyn couldn't follow and leave the Piltover is in city's council one of the most important heads. That's why she didn't tell anything to VI.. Caitlyn keeps the secret from everyone now

  • @attalys
    @attalys 3 дня назад +9

    I agree with all the hints to her surviving and do believe she did, however, I think the pink streak is just a function of the bomb.
    You can see a similar pink beam in an earlier scene when she pulls the pin before Ekko rewinds time. Also, the beam is above the vent system. I thought that it could perhaps be going towards the hole that her crashed balloon created, but it's not, it's going in the opposite direction.
    In the end, only the writer's know, but i think they left enough bread crumbs to formulate a strong opinion.

    • @Duriboh
      @Duriboh  3 дня назад +5

      Arcane was not written with 'Arcane being canon' in mind. So I always assumed that they wanted a way to get out of a lot of problematic writing.
      I don't think that's the case here. Some of the hints are too strong or there would be no point in showing some of the details, from the Hexgates Plans, the aircraft and the purple one streak.
      I agree that it's a tiny detail, and might be far off from reality, but that's pretty much how most things have been with arcane, for instance the piano guy being too much like Jhin and getting a spotlight in the finale for no reason. Who knows maybe we go to Ionia next :)

    She is definitely still alive but I think what that ending sequence meant is that her last shred of humanity had died before going full on Jinx. Because Isha did restore some of Powder-Jinx plus if you look at the flashback being shown while they were falling. You can see Vander looking at Violet and Powder sleeping with the lyrics, “if I could just lay my head down and rest..if there was nothing to fight or protect..maybe I could finally be free.. maybe death is like falling asleep..” meaning Powder-Jinx is finally dying, resting deep within her consciousness. While the gun-crazed maniac Jinx takes full control of her body. You know the one that’s wrecking havoc in the current Piltover in League 😅

    • @thatpunkcatte
      @thatpunkcatte 3 дня назад

      Important to remember though that champions ingame are not indicative of where they are in terms of lore.
      Yasuo was in Bilgewater most recently and has moved on from his past, for example, but Yasuo ingame is more lifted from his time as a ronin in Ionia.
      I think crazy Jinx ingame is more of a reflection of how Jinx was whilst Vi was in Stillwater, but canonically she's moved on from that period in her life.
