This is the perfect example of the difference a good director makes. If you think about it, not much happens in this scene. It could just be a normal scene, Jinx lights up the flare, Vi and Cait are running away while Silco is raging. But they turned it into one of the most magical scenes I've ever seen. Arcane is a masterpiece
@@marlison2297 yeah, it could've only taken 10 seconds for just Ekko running up to Jinx and hitting her but NO. We get some sick music and a cool clip of their younger and present selves.
@@marlison2297 well, storytellingwise that scene was really unnecessary and gimmicky, more style than substance. Arcane does that a lot and it can be fun (I really enjoyed it for the most parts) but its also an easy trick to make a scene cooler just by adding cool music and musicvideo style editing. This show truly is an artistic masterpiece, but the storytelling often feels more like something a 15 year old would do because its really cool and epic but doesn't have much meaning to it Edit: Same could go for the Guns for hire scene, but I freaking love Woodkid and the visuals so I'm watching it on repeat xD
And that they went with Vi actually finding her was awesome. Her look when she saw the flare, Powder not trusting her,... I can already say that this show will forever hold a special place in my heart.
I can't imagine how satisfying it would be to work on a project for years, only to have it release to this level of acclaim and praise. Props to everyone who worked on Arcane, you knocked it out of the park.
It seems that when you work on something consistently for so long and believe in yourself and your work so much, the rewards will pay you back tenfold. Why resilience, self belief, dedication and persistence is so important to have. Examples are Squid Game and Arcane. Squid Game was a script and plot that was 10 years in the making and kept away from the world. And so was Arcane with 6 years.
That scene was so beautifully done, yet also hauntingly disturbing at the same time. You can still see the wounds on both of them as well as their facial expressions of how they felt before they died. Mylo screaming out in fear and pain after he got stabbed with a rod and Claggor showing nothing except clouded dead eyes staring at nothing with the bloody hole from the crystal shard penetrating his forehead which caused him to instantly die without reaction.
Right when she lights that flare, the look in her eyes and the song, hits me right in the feels.. such a deep impact of emotion. It’s perfect in every way.
The “kiss your perfect day goodbye” line when she lights up the flare is absolutely perfect. She wants Vi to come for her more than anything, but she’s convinced she won’t
I have followed Woodkid for years and never heard him singing that high. Is like he was standing there with Jinx, the emotion he puts on the notes is so incredible it made me even doubt who was singing.
same, i thought "wow this sounds like woodkid, but it's prob not him because he usually doesn't sing that high" nope, it's woodkid. such an amazing song and artist.
His S16 album definitely has a couple moments where he sings high like this and it’s awesome!. Another time he sang pretty high was in his live performance of Ghost Lights at Montreux in 2016.
There is only 1 way to make it better, end this episode on it. It was such a perfect sequence to end act 2, instead they dragged it too long (it is basically only criticism of this series i have so far).
A whole month has passed, and I still can't get over how amazing this show was. I wish I could go back and watch it all over again. It had me on edge every week!!!
I feel you so hard. I'm telling everyone I know to watch the show or ask them if they wanna watch together. Between reaction videos, analysis and rewatching with friends and family I probably watched this show 15-20 times by now.
@@averry5891 yessss me too, I've told so many people and I still am. I've watched tons of reactions and reviews on it as well. On Netflix alone I've watched it 6 times.
I, for one, feel a moral obligation to enlighten the masses that are yet to see this fucking jewel... Times are hard for me, and this... I can't even call this a show... THIS FUCKING EXPERIENCE has really shown me that humanity is not yet lost... I've had a few people say to me that they didn't like Arcane. They were never seen again.
This scene alone where this song plays, it deserves every award there is. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. Riot Games - thank you for this experience.
I understand that series based on video games are underrated, but Arcane really deserves an award, it touches on both social and emotional issues that I have never felt before in a long time. I don't know what the emmy awards are based on but I hope they make at least one mention of this work of art.
it's been so long since i was this invested in something, it still baffles me how much work was put into this, the perfect choice of music, the animation is so amazing it was all I could see in my first watch, the art is simply eye candy, every scene has so much power, the director/directors were a great choice, I can go hours just talking how much this is a masterpiece, it might have it's problems, but tbh, I don't think they're that bad, the problems are minimal compared to everything else, anyway, it's awesome in every way, that's what I meant to say xD
It's so heartbreaking as it is her last cry for help with the last drop of trust in someone to find the little girl crying inside her. And sadly we all know where it went to eventually and inevitably ... It's no one's fault but it happened with all the past that haunts everyone in their own storyline.
I hate it, they were all hugging and stuff and suddenly all goes to shit. They love and need each other, why cant they just be together. I need a happy ending for the sisters so bad pls
It's not "noones" fault. It's very obviously directly Silco and indirectly the systems that Piltover oppress Zaun with. And Powder is a coward. So she becomes Jinx. The other kids were right. Sometimes you just stay and take a beating.
@@AramoroBayushi wouldn't things be so much easier if we always assume there is someone to blame or accuse for the tragedy, and assume we know better from a God's angle to predict everything ahead.
Ikr! I wasn't expecting him to sing for Arcane, but damn, it was a pleasant surprise. His deep voice & the vibe of his songs just help bring everything to life.
Jinx, Mylo and Clogger.... It's like Clogger just has this blank stare because he died instantly, where is Mylo is wailing in pain, having seen/felt it all unfold. Shot me thru the heart Riot, well played 😭😭😭
Anyone who doesn’t say this show is at least good, ur really crazy, you can see the attention to detail in every Frame. The amount of effort put into this show. Tysm riot easily top 3 favorites.
@@puppetmaskerr i guess i can see that i feels like it's "too fast" i think for me though, it's partly because i don't want it to end lol, but i will admit that after the first 3 episodes it felt a tad rushed. But the first 3 episodes? hoo boy they are amazing.
Sadly the people who control the awards don't like or think much about animation, especially a series. Arcane is a masterpeice, and I'm hopeful it gets at least a emmy for animation and voice acting, although it deserves every award.
@@webbuh6881 SAME FOR ME, imma be honest ive watched this show 4 times lmao!!! I need to be fed arcane content, I cant wait a 1-2 years, so I will watch edits and the show multiple time until the second season comes out!!! Everything about it is just so perfect and beautiful!!!
@@chomk yeah i know, i listen to him basically every day, watch all the live performances on youtube and so on. thats why this song strikes me that much
Hold the die, your turn to roll Before they fall through your fingers Not a good night to lose control Right as the earth is unraveling You play with your blocks until they break And these walls come tumbling down Oh, they're tumbling down You're out of time, make your move Live or die while the fuse is lit and there's no turning back Kiss your perfect day goodbye Because the world is on fire Tuck your innocence goodnight You sold your friends like guns for hire Go play with your blocks And now you'll pay when these walls come tumbling down Oh, they're tumbling down Resting on a knife, you heavy souls With all this weight buckling down on you now Don't you drown and float away Not a good time to lose control Right as your marionettes cut their strings and run away You're out of time, make your move Live or die while the fuse is lit and there's no turning back Kiss your perfect day goodbye Because the world is on fire Tuck your innocence goodnight You sold your friends like guns for hire Go play with your blocks And now you'll pay when these walls come tumbling down Oh, they're tumbling down
This scene gave me more chills and emotions than I've had watching any other - when Mylo and Claggor appear behind Jinx, they look like they're screaming for Vi to find her and save them all from her mind... it's so powerful
Never played the game, not familiar with any of the actors, never heard of half of these artists but this series is hands down one of the best Ive seen in a long time! I started watching this on a whim and after episode 3 I was counting down the days to the next episode
@@chair6389 same as Destiny lol, people can hate it, but there isnt any other game that offers at least an 80% similar experience, in the community we have a meme that goes like this "I hate this Game, it's fucking trash, I play 9 hours per day and I love it"
I went into Arcane wanting to waste some time and check out a new TV show. I left with the tragic, heartwrenching story of sisters fighting against a corrupt world where no one is truly evil nor good.
Silco is true evil. He just confuses you with his excuse of "I only do it for my people", when in reality he just wants that power and this is the easiest way to make people do what he wants because they all want out of their current situation. That alone does not make him evil, but the means he uses to get to that end show who he truly is, and why Vander wanted to put an end to him, because he steps over dead people and empty souls everywhere he goes, as he turns everyone he corrupts into empty shells, only to do his bidding. This is also why he said he loves Jinx and tells her that she is perfect, because he loves her for what he turned her into. She is perfect for him because he made her into something akin to himself, which he can control.
@@MrSheduur See that's the tricky part about Silco's character. Does he love Jinx or not? We have evidence for both, but at the end, Silco's love for Jinx, while twisted, is there. At the beginning, he was the classic monolouging villain, and we begin to see a break in his character when he meets Powder. Does he take her in because he saw an asset? Maybe. That makes sense from a storyline standpoint. Does he take her in because he saw a broken girl distraught because her older sibling betray her similarly to him? That poetic ending could work too. When he lets her inject him with shimmer, that was an act of trust that could be used in a villainous way or a loving way. When he saw her half dead on the bridge, did he run to her to save her because he was afraid of losing an asset or a child? We've seen Silco easily get around situations that involved having to deal with a setback. Losing Jinx would've been no problem. In fact, that removed the only threat of war. When he dies, he says that he loved her, and wouldn't give her up for anything. Did he know that that would hammer the last nail into the coffin of Powder? Maybe. Did he think that that would reassure her, and give her at least one moment of peace? Maybe. In the end, what I think makes him not a pure villain is the fact that we have evidence that he would care for Jinx with malicious intent, but also that he would love her for her. He's not one-dimensional which gives him a grey morality. And if we were to label him as a villain, we would be labelling a human for human acts. Silco is human.
@@justyouraveragelimeenjoyer8675 this comment speaks nothing but the truth that’s why Silco is such a good complex character I wanted to dislike him so bad but I really couldn’t and was even saddened by his death it’s crazy how they flip your mind and perspective on who the villain is
@@justyouraveragelimeenjoyer8675he loves her. When he was next to his brothers statue he said he finally understood him becoming weak after having children to take care off, since he became weak and didn't want to sacrifice jinx for the nation of Zaun
Not everyone in that world is evil Yasuo is good, Irelia is good, taric is good, Ivern is good, Senna and Lucian are good, Heimerdinger is good, Ryze is good, etc
Blue is such a sad color, the choice of colors in this series is amazing. From just the seeing silhouette of Powder holding that blue smoke signal i felt her lonelyness and wanted so much for Vi to hug her. And the music? Woodkid baby, holy mother of GOD. What a masterpiece.
And don't forget the lyrics when the smoke goes flying. "Kiss your perfect day goodbye because the world is on fire." (Everything in the undercity is about to change with Vander's prodigy back) "Tuck your innocence goodnight. You sold your friends like guns for hire." A shit load of people had to die to get to this point where the girl's are reunited.
@@gabriellarios4466 I think everyone was afraid that would happen and the payoff when they actually got to meet and hug was beautiful, easily one of my favorite scenes in the show.
@@MistyKathrine Yes! I agree wholeheartedly. The fact that she saved the flare for so long without forgetting and waited for that day like nothing else in the world is just too moving
@@catalincioponea They want to be successful? Are you living on a cave? League has over 115 million players and most popular online game/Most streamed views. Lmao.
I was not expecting THE Woodkid to sing for Arcane, but it makes so much sense why they chose him for this emotional scene. His deep & beautiful voice, the unique & powerful vibe behind the melody, & the haunting lyrics paint a masterpiece & really help bring this scene to life.
If you haven't watched the documentary of how Arcane was made, the showrunner tells the story of how they wanted Woodkid for a different song, but once Woodkid heard this song, he wanted to sing it. And the showrunner said Woodkid transformed it from something good into this. I think it's in this part of the doc: ruclips.net/video/m-MtIYImERI/видео.html
1:20 the way this note goes it's not "expected" to gives me chills every time. Ive never heard a song like this before. Its become my favorite of the whole soundtrack, i just can't get it out of my head
*The last episode left me with this song, the fact that jinx said that Vi's not her sister anymore but still kept that flare and light it up hoping that Vi will show up*
By far the greatest scene of the entire series (actually even of anything I've ever watched) in my opinion. Literally everything fits together perfectly. Everytime I hear this song I can see Jinx holding that flare in her hand and it's giving me goosebumps so much. You've really outdone yourself there.
The circle shot combined with her dead friends she accidentally killed alongside the build up to that scene and the music in the background combined drama, tragedy and suspense so well.
That moment we see the body of their two friends behind Jinx's back, the emotion on everyone's face, with this music and animation was just the perfection, and I am afraid I cannot see anything more beautiful than that in the future
A whole YEAR has passed, and I still can't get over how amazing this show was. I wish I could go back and watch it all over again. It had me on edge every week!!!
I cannot WAIT to get to join in with the fandom as the episodes get released in chunks for season 2 since I only got on board after everything was already out for season 1. Being there while things are progressively released is the best part of fandom imo.
Lyrics Hold the dice, your turn to roll Before they fall through your fingers Not a good night to lose control Right as the earth is unraveling You play with your blocks until they break And these walls come tumbling down Oh, they're tumbling down You're out of time, make your move Live or die while the fuse is lit and there's no turning back Kiss your perfect day goodbye Because the world is on fire Tuck your innocence goodnight You sold your friends like guns for hire Go play with your blocks And now you'll pay when these walls come tumbling down Oh, they're tumbling down Resting on a knife, you heavy souls With all this weight buckling down on you now Don't you drown and float away Not a good time to lose control Right as your marionettes cut their strings and run away You're out of time, make your move Live or die while the fuse is lit and there's no turning back Kiss your perfect day goodbye Because the world is on fire Tuck your innocence goodnight You sold your friends like guns for hire Go play with your blocks And now you'll pay when these walls come tumbling down Oh, they're tumbling down
@@AcuteAngl Oh really? Where does he ever state that? All I read is “ You give me a thought. That would be 100x better than those exhausted billie eilish sounds”. Whatever that means.
The thing I love most about this show is that the scenes where there is no dialog being spoken manage to hit harder than the most emotional or hateful lines that any of the character's in the show could ever speak. From eye language to the haunting visuals and score. All the legends who made this show possible deserve all the awards they get! (Especially the director/directors)
@@magek8725 I knew this voice sounded so familiar! I remember hearing a Woodkid song in an Assassin's Creed trailer and my goodness was it amazing. This band gives so much emotions to its songs. So beautiful and amazing.
@@magek8725 Haha thats so cool to hear! And ikr, it's so amazing what bands i've discovered just from watching trailers and listening to video game music. So much awesome music out there to discover :)
@@magek8725 it's not a band tho just a guy who is a music director, composer, producer, he does music for himself , music for other artists and he even produces his and other artists music videos, he is really talented
I just realised - this would be a perfect Bond song. It has all the necessary components. It's dramatic. It has some Bond chords. The lyrics are suggestive. With the right visuals it might have been a title sequence song. I love that it's not though. It fits here.
I personally like to think that it wasn’t jinx who lit the flare, but the last bits of powder that were left in jinx. A last and final stand before powder will be buried.
@@grapeman807i mean in that scene her eyes were brown like powders, not pink like jinx's, so i guess powder wanted to save everyone by killing herself along with jinx
I can't think of a way to do it life though. The smoke movement and animation sells it. Or you'd need one of those mad craftsmen that made those old marble statues thst seem like they have cloth draped over it but it's just stone..
This series is by far the most passionate display of love for a project I have ever seen in my 31 years. The music, the animation, the arks, the dynamics, the effects, the voice acting.. I could go on ad infinitum. No corners were cut, no stone unturned. It’s rare a project causes its constituents to befall the same love it was given by its creators, but this one did it. Congratulations Riot, you’ve changed our hearts and minds.
Trusting this moment of the episode with a guy like Woodkid was on the same level as trusting Imagine Dragons for the opening. Riot really amazes me with their smart and comprehensive decision. Thank you Woodkid for this FANTASTIC song and I CAN’T WAIT for the last 3 episodes. I’m definitely rewatching this once the all season is out. Freaking perfection et on dit bravo au Studio Fortiche ✌🏾 Vous avez gérer de dingue les gars milles merci !!!! #RiotGames #Fortiche
How can a song bring back all the feeligs we had while we were watching the scene? its crazy, I have to hold my tears every time... Congratulations Arcane, the emotion it gives... This serie is no joke ♥💙
I can't get this show out of my head. I finished it last week and I still find my thoughts drifting to every single facet of it whenever I have free time.
The switch between Silco's temper tantrum and Vi and Caitlyn running and Jinx with the flare was visually the best scene for me in season one so much that I watch it daily. Vi flipping someone off still makes me laugh 😂
It could also be closure too. Looking for answers she couldn't get from Silco who fed her a steady diet of being something to fear and letting her monsters out.
This, "Playground" and "What could have been" might just be my favorite songs, not just in this show, ever. Their choice of songs was really spectacular! Just like everything else in this show lol. What a show.
dude i cant give this show enough credit of how much time and effort in making this show a really perfect show, and in all honesty, arcane is THE BEST animated series i've ever seen. I know it isn't fair to compare this show to animes, but i got to say nothing impresses me more than arcane, and i think arcane is the peak of how an animation and story could go. Cant wait to see the second season.
Jesus christ this got me right in the feels! Never thought an animation based on a game could be so gut wrenchingly heartbreaking and beautiful. What a perfect song song to that scene.....I'm reeling.... Woodkid....Wow!
Her unleashing the flare and raising her head, waving flare around like a flag as the camera pans out on beat is what gives me chills and makes me emotional.
I love this scene, it's made out of raw emotion, when Jinx lights the flare and rises it hopeless but still wanting Vi could see her, anywhere she was. And Mylo and claggor behind her, attached to her and her guilt for their deaths shows her PTSD, she's carrying all the guilt and sorrow, she lost her mind to forget it all but they were still there, ghosts haunting her.
Man, from an aesthetic perspective: the piece strats (tone, rhythm, harmony, etc.) are incredibly well developed. Related with the character and scene - in terms of plot and design- is just outrageous. Feels like all the serie was created for this cathartic moment. Amazing.
I love how this song feels like it’s taunting Silco. At this point in the story he’s fully losing control, all of his masterful schemes are unraveling. Markus is faltering. Jinx is faltering. Vi and Caitlyn are roaming free and he cannot stop them. He’s losing the trust of his followers. These walls are tumbling down, and it’s his own damn fault - I’d say he deserves his little rage moment.
Every time I hear the song I have to admit my eyes water. Arcane is by far the best series I've ever seen. The passion of the makers, the details, the music, the art, the depth, just amazing. And then there's Jinx... what an exciting yet tragic character.
This show is beautiful in every way. So many scenes that broke me watching this masterpiece of a series. Especially this scene, Jinx being constantly haunted by her past mistakes, and with Claggor and Mylo against her just hit different.
Never played LoL. I watched the show cuz a friend was nagging me to check it out. First three episodes had me in the fence but this was the scene where I knew I loved it. The crescendo of the song as Jinx lights the flare, trying to call her sister to her, it was an incredibly well put together scene. I love the music choices they made throughout the show. They had the somber string music, and then all of a sudden hip hop or alternative rock and then rap mixed in, it was bizarre but it fit the mood of the scenes so well. And the different art styles that would pepper the episodes, like the Ekko vs Jinx fight helped to keep it fresh. Riot did such a good job with this show. This song in particular along with Stings song for the finale are my favorites from the series
I need to be very honest... I cried during that scene. Jinx lighting up the flare and the camera showing Mylo at her back looking like himself was in agony. So much emotion. A masterpiece. Period.
I always found it interesting that Mylo never actually cried out when he was first pierced by the rod. But because he was Powders' biggest bully, it makes sense why he'd be wide mouthed.
People can be hipsters about this show and say it's not as good as everyone says, but with songs like this coupled with the scene it's in there's no wonder a lot of people who watched it enjoy it so much. If you're the type to only get enjoyment by raining on other people's parades then have fun surrounded by negativity all day with others that agree with you. Shows will always have flaws, but you can still enjoy a piece of media regardless, especially for something as tedious and underappreciated as animation.
Full of comments tamking about ppl who could not like the show but literaly nobody said that so i dont rly understand.. u guys rly have pentaly issues when it s about trying to get some likes
@@bestwar_ I've only heard praises as well. I even got my sister into it, who was hooked right at the start, and she hates cartoons, saying it's for kids rofl now she's sort of simping for Vi.
Anyone saying its not a masterpiece obviously cant tell when there’s something good in front of them and just lack the taste and nuisance to understand it.
Epic moment when jinx lighting and the sound of desperation where jinx still got haunted by her dead friends milo hang behind her imaging the voice of cry damn goosebumps. Hat’s off to riot compiling every scene with amazing music track

That scene was so beautifully done, yet also hauntingly disturbing at the same time.
You can still see the wounds on both of them as well as their facial expressions of how they felt before they died. Mylo screaming out in fear and pain after he got stabbed with a rod and Claggor showing nothing except clouded dead eyes staring at nothing with the bloody hole from the crystal shard penetrating his forehead which caused him to instantly die without reaction.
Right when she lights that flare, the look in her eyes and the song, hits me right in the feels.. such a deep impact of emotion. It’s perfect in every way.
honestly what hit me even harder was the "goodbye goodbye" as it slowly zooms out of powder getting adopted in ep 3
A last cry for help...
so true
I couldn't agreed more, it's such a personal scene, or when Jinx fires the rocket at the end with the song "what could have been" in the background.
6.3 thousandth like :D
The “kiss your perfect day goodbye” line when she lights up the flare is absolutely perfect. She wants Vi to come for her more than anything, but she’s convinced she won’t
I have followed Woodkid for years and never heard him singing that high. Is like he was standing there with Jinx, the emotion he puts on the notes is so incredible it made me even doubt who was singing.
same, i thought "wow this sounds like woodkid, but it's prob not him because he usually doesn't sing that high" nope, it's woodkid. such an amazing song and artist.
Never doubt people's potential, friends.
Same here, I also didn't recognise Sting in "What could've been" even though i'm a big fan of his and the Police
Woodkid definitely got pushed out of his comfort zone. So worth it tho.
His S16 album definitely has a couple moments where he sings high like this and it’s awesome!. Another time he sang pretty high was in his live performance of Ghost Lights at Montreux in 2016.

I understand that series based on video games are underrated, but Arcane really deserves an award, it touches on both social and emotional issues that I have never felt before in a long time. I don't know what the emmy awards are based on but I hope they make at least one mention of this work of art.
it's been so long since i was this invested in something, it still baffles me how much work was put into this, the perfect choice of music, the animation is so amazing it was all I could see in my first watch, the art is simply eye candy, every scene has so much power, the director/directors were a great choice, I can go hours just talking how much this is a masterpiece, it might have it's problems, but tbh, I don't think they're that bad, the problems are minimal compared to everything else, anyway, it's awesome in every way, that's what I meant to say xD
and the most intersting is that ...is only a fraction of what lores offers to the fans...is just amazing for me..
Piltover's classism was so well portrayed
and the winner is..... Any Disney remake-movie-song-trailer-whatever present.. they miss the real gems
Good thing that it's not underrated. I believe Arcane was ranked 1 globally on Netflix, even overpassed Squid game
It's so heartbreaking as it is her last cry for help with the last drop of trust in someone to find the little girl crying inside her. And sadly we all know where it went to eventually and inevitably ... It's no one's fault but it happened with all the past that haunts everyone in their own storyline.
Damn. You got it right!
I hate it, they were all hugging and stuff and suddenly all goes to shit.
They love and need each other, why cant they just be together. I need a happy ending for the sisters so bad pls
It's not "noones" fault. It's very obviously directly Silco and indirectly the systems that Piltover oppress Zaun with. And Powder is a coward. So she becomes Jinx. The other kids were right. Sometimes you just stay and take a beating.
@@AramoroBayushi wouldn't things be so much easier if we always assume there is someone to blame or accuse for the tragedy, and assume we know better from a God's angle to predict everything ahead.

I went into Arcane wanting to waste some time and check out a new TV show.
I left with the tragic, heartwrenching story of sisters fighting against a corrupt world where no one is truly evil nor good.
Silco is true evil. He just confuses you with his excuse of "I only do it for my people", when in reality he just wants that power and this is the easiest way to make people do what he wants because they all want out of their current situation. That alone does not make him evil, but the means he uses to get to that end show who he truly is, and why Vander wanted to put an end to him, because he steps over dead people and empty souls everywhere he goes, as he turns everyone he corrupts into empty shells, only to do his bidding.
This is also why he said he loves Jinx and tells her that she is perfect, because he loves her for what he turned her into. She is perfect for him because he made her into something akin to himself, which he can control.
@@MrSheduur See that's the tricky part about Silco's character. Does he love Jinx or not? We have evidence for both, but at the end, Silco's love for Jinx, while twisted, is there.
At the beginning, he was the classic monolouging villain, and we begin to see a break in his character when he meets Powder. Does he take her in because he saw an asset? Maybe. That makes sense from a storyline standpoint.
Does he take her in because he saw a broken girl distraught because her older sibling betray her similarly to him? That poetic ending could work too.
When he lets her inject him with shimmer, that was an act of trust that could be used in a villainous way or a loving way.
When he saw her half dead on the bridge, did he run to her to save her because he was afraid of losing an asset or a child? We've seen Silco easily get around situations that involved having to deal with a setback. Losing Jinx would've been no problem. In fact, that removed the only threat of war.
When he dies, he says that he loved her, and wouldn't give her up for anything. Did he know that that would hammer the last nail into the coffin of Powder? Maybe. Did he think that that would reassure her, and give her at least one moment of peace? Maybe.
In the end, what I think makes him not a pure villain is the fact that we have evidence that he would care for Jinx with malicious intent, but also that he would love her for her. He's not one-dimensional which gives him a grey morality. And if we were to label him as a villain, we would be labelling a human for human acts.
Silco is human.
@@justyouraveragelimeenjoyer8675 this comment speaks nothing but the truth that’s why Silco is such a good complex character I wanted to dislike him so bad but I really couldn’t and was even saddened by his death it’s crazy how they flip your mind and perspective on who the villain is
@@justyouraveragelimeenjoyer8675he loves her.
When he was next to his brothers statue he said he finally understood him becoming weak after having children to take care off, since he became weak and didn't want to sacrifice jinx for the nation of Zaun
Not everyone in that world is evil
Yasuo is good, Irelia is good, taric is good, Ivern is good, Senna and Lucian are good, Heimerdinger is good, Ryze is good, etc
Blue is such a sad color, the choice of colors in this series is amazing. From just the seeing silhouette of Powder holding that blue smoke signal i felt her lonelyness and wanted so much for Vi to hug her. And the music? Woodkid baby, holy mother of GOD. What a masterpiece.
And don't forget the lyrics when the smoke goes flying.
"Kiss your perfect day goodbye because the world is on fire."
(Everything in the undercity is about to change with Vander's prodigy back)
"Tuck your innocence goodnight. You sold your friends like guns for hire."
A shit load of people had to die to get to this point where the girl's are reunited.
Woodkid really made an absolute banger for both seasons of Arcane, goated
I was so scared that Vi wouldn't go after her and Powder would be let down again.
I felt the same way, that's what I wanted to happen the most, so glad she came
@@gabriellarios4466 I think everyone was afraid that would happen and the payoff when they actually got to meet and hug was beautiful, easily one of my favorite scenes in the show.
@@MistyKathrine Yes! I agree wholeheartedly. The fact that she saved the flare for so long without forgetting and waited for that day like nothing else in the world is just too moving

I was not expecting THE Woodkid to sing for Arcane, but it makes so much sense why they chose him for this emotional scene. His deep & beautiful voice, the unique & powerful vibe behind the melody, & the haunting lyrics paint a masterpiece & really help bring this scene to life.
If you haven't watched the documentary of how Arcane was made, the showrunner tells the story of how they wanted Woodkid for a different song, but once Woodkid heard this song, he wanted to sing it. And the showrunner said Woodkid transformed it from something good into this. I think it's in this part of the doc: ruclips.net/video/m-MtIYImERI/видео.html
@@FalconPaladin Oh wow, I didn't know that! It's a good thing Woodkid chose to sing the song that he did because now we have this masterpiece.

Everytime I hear this song I can see Jinx holding that flare in her hand and it's giving me goosebumps so much.
You've really outdone yourself there.
Id pair this with clannad after story when ushio cries with tomoya. Absolutely impacting scenes
The circle shot combined with her dead friends she accidentally killed alongside the build up to that scene and the music in the background combined drama, tragedy and suspense so well.
That moment we see the body of their two friends behind Jinx's back, the emotion on everyone's face, with this music and animation was just the perfection, and I am afraid I cannot see anything more beautiful than that in the future

Is it me or does this sound like it could be an opening for a James Bond movie. It was put in the perfect spot of the show, so much emotion conveyed.
I just realised - this would be a perfect Bond song. It has all the necessary components. It's dramatic. It has some Bond chords. The lyrics are suggestive. With the right visuals it might have been a title sequence song.
I love that it's not though. It fits here.
This is one of the best ideas i ever see
My friends and I have been saying Woodkid needs to do a Bond theme for years. His style fits perfectly
Funny because I thought this had layers of No Time To Die and Skyfall. Glad someone else hears similar
Lyrics are suggestive? In what way?
I personally like to think that it wasn’t jinx who lit the flare, but the last bits of powder that were left in jinx.
A last and final stand before powder will be buried.

Imo the last bit of powder left after the fight with Ekko where she wanted to die as powder but due to singed and silco she didn't
@@grapeman807i mean in that scene her eyes were brown like powders, not pink like jinx's, so i guess powder wanted to save everyone by killing herself along with jinx
@@grapeman807The last part left during the final episode
Congratulations, Arcane. You fucking deserved that Emmy.
This needs an action figure. Jinx holding the flare with Claggor and Mylo.
I can't think of a way to do it life though. The smoke movement and animation sells it. Or you'd need one of those mad craftsmen that made those old marble statues thst seem like they have cloth draped over it but it's just stone..
I would buy that.
When Jinx said to Vi "things changed when you left, I changed" my bed started floating with my tears 😭😭😭
This series is by far the most passionate display of love for a project I have ever seen in my 31 years. The music, the animation, the arks, the dynamics, the effects, the voice acting.. I could go on ad infinitum. No corners were cut, no stone unturned. It’s rare a project causes its constituents to befall the same love it was given by its creators, but this one did it. Congratulations Riot, you’ve changed our hearts and minds.
Trusting this moment of the episode with a guy like Woodkid was on the same level as trusting Imagine Dragons for the opening. Riot really amazes me with their smart and comprehensive decision. Thank you Woodkid for this FANTASTIC song and I CAN’T WAIT for the last 3 episodes. I’m definitely rewatching this once the all season is out. Freaking perfection et on dit bravo au Studio Fortiche ✌🏾 Vous avez gérer de dingue les gars milles merci !!!! #RiotGames #Fortiche

WOODKID IS JUST TOO GOOD, NEVER DISAPPOINTS
Seriously, how do i get this series out of my head I constantly think about arcane its way too good
Just embrace it, by the time you lose interest the second season will probably be out
The switch between Silco's temper tantrum and Vi and Caitlyn running and Jinx with the flare was visually the best scene for me in season one so much that I watch it daily. Vi flipping someone off still makes me laugh 😂
In another world this is a James Bond title song, so majestic
I like to believe not even Jinx had any idea what she'd do if the flare even worked and she saw Vi again. Revenge? Relief? Rage? She just had to know
It could also be closure too. Looking for answers she couldn't get from Silco who fed her a steady diet of being something to fear and letting her monsters out.
Here after act 1 of ARCANE.. woodkid and his music is beautiful, Sooo glad they brought him back for s2
Riot having impeccable taste in the artists they use. Woodkid is a prime example.
This scene was so beautiful. The music, the emotion, the imagery. Absolutely insane
I hope to God the quality in Riots animation/music team doesn't fade. This is serious Gold in every way imaginable.
Arcane and this song will forever be a masterpiece.
This, "Playground" and "What could have been" might just be my favorite songs, not just in this show, ever. Their choice of songs was really spectacular! Just like everything else in this show lol.
What a show.
dude i cant give this show enough credit of how much time and effort in making this show a really perfect show, and in all honesty, arcane is THE BEST animated series i've ever seen. I know it isn't fair to compare this show to animes, but i got to say nothing impresses me more than arcane, and i think arcane is the peak of how an animation and story could go. Cant wait to see the second season.
Can we appreciate how these vids have no ads?
Jesus christ this got me right in the feels! Never thought an animation based on a game could be so gut wrenchingly heartbreaking and beautiful. What a perfect song song to that scene.....I'm reeling.... Woodkid....Wow!
It's nice that Woodkid is getting the cinematic recognition they deserve.

like Iron for Revelations.... I didn't have a clue what that game was about but that trailer made me play it to find out.
Her unleashing the flare and raising her head, waving flare around like a flag as the camera pans out on beat is what gives me chills and makes me emotional.
I love this scene, it's made out of raw emotion, when Jinx lights the flare and rises it hopeless but still wanting Vi could see her, anywhere she was. And Mylo and claggor behind her, attached to her and her guilt for their deaths shows her PTSD, she's carrying all the guilt and sorrow, she lost her mind to forget it all but they were still there, ghosts haunting her.
Man, from an aesthetic perspective: the piece strats (tone, rhythm, harmony, etc.) are incredibly well developed. Related with the character and scene - in terms of plot and design- is just outrageous. Feels like all the serie was created for this cathartic moment. Amazing.
First time I heard of Woodkid was for Assassin’s Creed with his track Iron. Years later he still doesn’t disappoint. Another amazing track!
I love how this song feels like it’s taunting Silco. At this point in the story he’s fully losing control, all of his masterful schemes are unraveling. Markus is faltering. Jinx is faltering. Vi and Caitlyn are roaming free and he cannot stop them. He’s losing the trust of his followers. These walls are tumbling down, and it’s his own damn fault - I’d say he deserves his little rage moment.

This series with this soundtrack was the best ever.
Every time I hear the song I have to admit my eyes water. Arcane is by far the best series I've ever seen. The passion of the makers, the details, the music, the art, the depth, just amazing.
And then there's Jinx... what an exciting yet tragic character.
This show is beautiful in every way. So many scenes that broke me watching this masterpiece of a series. Especially this scene, Jinx being constantly haunted by her past mistakes, and with Claggor and Mylo against her just hit different.

Never played LoL. I watched the show cuz a friend was nagging me to check it out. First three episodes had me in the fence but this was the scene where I knew I loved it. The crescendo of the song as Jinx lights the flare, trying to call her sister to her, it was an incredibly well put together scene. I love the music choices they made throughout the show. They had the somber string music, and then all of a sudden hip hop or alternative rock and then rap mixed in, it was bizarre but it fit the mood of the scenes so well. And the different art styles that would pepper the episodes, like the Ekko vs Jinx fight helped to keep it fresh. Riot did such a good job with this show. This song in particular along with Stings song for the finale are my favorites from the series
The theme song is catchy, but this one's a masterpiece. My boy Woodkid never fails
I dont know anything about Leage of Legends, but this scene just made me cry immediately
Then that proves not all videogame adaptation fails
@@Dixra3li I never even played LoL, just seeing Mylo and Claggor broke me
All of the Arcane music goes completely with the scenes, its just too good for one show
I need to be very honest... I cried during that scene. Jinx lighting up the flare and the camera showing Mylo at her back looking like himself was in agony. So much emotion. A masterpiece. Period.
I always found it interesting that Mylo never actually cried out when he was first pierced by the rod.
But because he was Powders' biggest bully, it makes sense why he'd be wide mouthed.
My heart literally expanded in my chest when 1:06 played during the actual episode. I had tears and I didn't know why.

I think this is one of the most beautiful male singing voice ive ever heard. fell in love with his technic at 0:50 and out
People can be hipsters about this show and say it's not as good as everyone says, but with songs like this coupled with the scene it's in there's no wonder a lot of people who watched it enjoy it so much. If you're the type to only get enjoyment by raining on other people's parades then have fun surrounded by negativity all day with others that agree with you. Shows will always have flaws, but you can still enjoy a piece of media regardless, especially for something as tedious and underappreciated as animation.
Full of comments tamking about ppl who could not like the show but literaly nobody said that so i dont rly understand.. u guys rly have pentaly issues when it s about trying to get some likes
@@bestwar_ I've only heard praises as well. I even got my sister into it, who was hooked right at the start, and she hates cartoons, saying it's for kids rofl now she's sort of simping for Vi.
@@AB-vp9mi There are a handful of people out there that didn't like it. Quite literally, a handful out of millions... But they DO exist.
@@Dilligff Probably Anti-art fellas, because even the first humans loved carvings and drawings.
Anyone saying its not a masterpiece obviously cant tell when there’s something good in front of them and just lack the taste and nuisance to understand it.
Epic moment when jinx lighting and the sound of desperation where jinx still got haunted by her dead friends milo hang behind her imaging the voice of cry damn goosebumps. Hat’s off to riot compiling every scene with amazing music track
