a small thing this series does incredibly well is acts of affection. the hugs have so much weight to them, and the head touches feel so sincere. you can just FEEL the emotion behind the interactions
I love how Vi doesn't ditch Powder entirely. She was just stepping away to cool off and not hurt Powder even more :") And Powder herself is incredibly traumatised. Abandonment issues from her parents' death caused her to cling onto Vi for a parental figure. Then Powder THINKS Vi abandoned her too and so she clings onto the first person who seems to care for her - Silco :")))
Whom she also didn't know was the "bad guy". She couldn't see him from her angle in the window of the warehouse and she came in after the fight on the catwalk had already begun. She only saw the backs of all the bad guys even on the catwalk .
09:13 The scene shows that Powder already has some emotional issues. She's a war orphan who lost most of her family, and is constantly afraid of being abandoned. That's why she's so obsessed with proving her worth.
up until the "Saftey match" was created in Sweden like a hundred years ago you could light matches with your fingers. They still sell such matches in novelty stores. Often called "Cowboy matches" or something similar. Considering the Undercity is pretty under developed and its a fantasy setting its not really a far stretch to think the safety match wasn't invented here.
Now that I've watched the first three episodes in condensed form I think I'm gonna give this another shot. It looks pretty flipping good! Thanks for being awesome as per usual, and also all your excellent technical terms you coin in this episode. 😇
I don't think it's fair to call Powder's panic attack a tantrum- she's traumatized and has severe separation anxiety. Her family had been wiped out before, and now her new family and main attachment are perhaps going to die, and she just got told she can't even help.
I agree, as someone who has had some pretty bad panic-attacks that landed me in the ER that is what it can look like and when it's that bad it can literally feel like you are going to die or the feeling will last forever in your mind. I'm not surprised given powders trauma that thinking her only family is about to die and not being able to help would very likely trigger a panic attack especially in someone so young.
It wasn't. It was just a stylistic choice, that could represent that, but just a nice long fade out, since we're closing the book on one chapter. Vi was KO'd and dragged away minutes before this shot.
While they never really explain Vander and Silco’s history it’s largely believed to be more complicated than Silco turning evil The main belief from what I’ve seen is that they worked very closely together to build up the undercity and led the uprising that resulted in the massacre at the bridge where Vander lost the will to fight and decided to raise Powder and Vi while Silco wanted to keep the movement going What actually happened that day to cause Vander to almost kill his best friend and brother in arms is up for debate
Vi's moment of realisation of what she did after hitting Powder is just so heartbreaking, like she looks at the blood on her hand and looks appalled with herself, which is why she runs. She's afraid of what she may do and knows she needs a break, but sadly Powder doesn't see it that way. It's the same with when Vi left her behind, it was for Powder's safety but all Powder heard was "she wasn't good enough to go". There's just so much shown body language wise and unwritten in certain ways, we love to see it
I’m actually obsessed with how funny you and your reactions are 😂 Also you’re the only reactor I’ve seen who noticed that the bomb is going off only once and they’re just showing different perspectives. For that, I thank you 😌
@@MonicaCatapusan me too but apparently not, I think I get it tho since it’s not a leap to think that the monkey cymbals just keep hitting the gem, but yeah you’re literally the one and only 😂
Powder has no idea who Silco is she has never seen him before so to her he is just someone who is there for her. Powder suffers from mental issues which is a main point of her backstory. In her mind Vi left and abandoned her, which is why she freaked out before as well she felt like her sister was telling her she wasn't useful.
Enjoy the amazing ride…it only gets better story wise. Thanks for sharing your reactions. Love seeing people discover this amazing show for the first time. ❤️
"Episode 3 was absolutely NEXT LEVEL! 😱 I'm officially hooked on this series! The storytelling, animation, and character development are all insane! Can't wait to see what happens next! 🔥🔥 #Arcane #Hooked"
the latter half of the 3 episdoe is what got me, i was about to be like "whelp, this show is a bust". Then i binged watched the rest over the next few hours.
Love the way you say "It's giving me the option to skip the intro" like it's the stupidest thing you ever heard. People hate on Imagine Dragons but that song makes you feel shit and anyone who says otherwise is a liar.
The smoking woman with Silco was the one that told Vander he looked weak during the town hall. I'm not sure what to make of your reaction. You seem to only have one emotional state. I don't think I've ever seen a reactor just watch the whole end and not take a moment to collect their thoughts and describe what they feel. It's almost like you're just watching to check it off your list, or maybe you just kinda live in the moment or don't really get invested in what filmmakers are trying to en part to the viewer. Sorry if this is coming off as critical of your reaction. Everyone's responds differently to things, but it just made me wonder. I tend to watch reactors that usually take a moment at the end to express and ponder the episode and what they saw and felt. You don't have to go as long as 2 hours, like one dude does but going forward, maybe consider it? Thanks for this though! As a storyteller who's worked in video games, I found it frustrating when producers constantly told me that the cinematics had to be shorter because people just skip over them anyways, or just to just do the bare minimum to inform the player where to go next. The struggle of an artist, is real. :) Arcane is fantastic and should be savored.
Oh damn a lot happened in these two episodes 😩 I’m just upset about the sisters and how she slapped Powder 😭 now she’s just gonna be emotionless towards anything
Hey gorgeous you look marvelous in your red sexy top a kiss of impeccable life energy. If you want to see that wonderful actress that voice Grayson, you can check out her acting on Expanse which she's just as good on there playing a similar role, but a high-ranking politician and you will love her multiple outfits but not out shining you.
I'm happy you noticed it's supposed to be one explosion from multiple points of view. I think the majority of people think it is multiple explosions from the monkey (yes some rebound). You seem relieved that you liked the episode. lol TY

The "ohhh this is a villain origin story" realisation is great, and I feel bad for those who knew too much.
This is honestly a much better show if you know nothing about LoL. You don't know where characters are going and who has plot armor.
@@jonwilson9131 oh even with plot armor i can tell you i shit my pants last episode that how good it is :)

Monica: Im not completely invested yet but Im gonna watch episode 3
Arcane: So.. you have chosen *death.*
😭😭😭
I love how she refuses to skip the intro. The intro really slaps hey😂
Added it to my music playlist and everything😂💯
The intro slaps harder than Vi 😶
@@ArukiTsukaru no you didn't 😂

a lot of people sleep on this but i actually think marcus is a very well written character, hes got more depth than people think
That doesn't change the fact that he is annoying /j
i think the audio sounds slightly more clear, more crisp! Glad you're gonna watch the whole series!! it's a wild ride
Ahh thank you for letting me know! That’s such a relief, I thought nobody could hear a difference😭

Thank you! Yesss it’s so good!!

That light fading at the end was Vi's pov while Marcus is taking her away and losing conscience

Amazing show awesome reaction! Keep going and hope you enjoy as much as I did! Loving your reactions!
Thank you! Yes I’m definitely going to cover the whole series🤩

I love how Vi and powder parallel eachother, siblings one on the good side one on the bad
Yay! Glad that you ended up liking this series. It's one of the rare series that only keeps on getting better.
I love your reactions so much! I hope your keep doing these
Yes of course!! Once the playlist is made, the whole series will be covered!!

😂😂😂😂 love that
i love seeing your reactions!! you always have really great commentary
Thank you so much!!✨

Oooh am I the only one who would prefer single videos going forward? There's quite a bit to go through in each episode...
the latter half of the 3 episdoe is what got me, i was about to be like "whelp, this show is a bust".
Then i binged watched the rest over the next few hours.

Nice
When you can’t watch it so you watch her
