The blockade is a mistake from our point of view because we have all the information. But anybody in Jayce's position would have done the same thing: a terrorist attack just killed 6 people and the sheriff thinks more attacks will occur. Of course, closing the bridge is the right move to help Silco, but Jayce has no idea what's really happening.
Exactly. Piltover has no idea how big this could get, so they're taking no chances. It's a logical decision.
Oh and the terrorists just stole fissile material, so at best, a dirty bomb, at worst, a nuke.
Thanks the Lord there are people who understand that. I thought I am thd only one.
Technically, it isn't supposed to be a blockade. It's supposed to be the TSA. His instructions were to check everyone crossing the bridges. It isn't clear why it turned into a complete blockade if that is what it is. Did Marcus change the idea? Did they have to shut it down due to the rioting? We don't really know.
nah jayce really really dumb because he spent ten years planning to give hextech to everyone and even specifically mentioned giving hextech to poor people during his speech on progress day, and then five minutes later he freaks out at the thought of poor people having even one hex gem. jayce is a piece of shit lol
A little explanation as to why Ekko hesitated there at the end with Jinx.
One of his quotes in the game to Jinx: "I had a crush until you started talking to the gun"
He loved her when they were kids, and no matter how much he tells himself, throughout this episode, that "all that's left is Jinx" and "you can't change her", right there in that moment he shows, that's not the way he actually feels. Pure masterpiece all around this show😍
You don't need explanation for why he hesitated there. You DEFINITELY don't need info taken from outside the series itself.
@@VashTown I don't understand how MORE context could be a bad thing
I mean I think it was pretty simple, others have said it best.
He was prepared to kill Jinx, he was not prepared to kill Powder
Jinx was mad because Vi came back for them, something she didn't do for her. We know why but from Powder perspective she abandoned her.
tbf Vi told her that Marcus took her away so she technically has all the information to put together why she couldn't come back. But yeah, Jinx isn't exactly thinking straight in that moment - or most of the time.
Yeah, It's not nessesary to justifice her actions, when people are in a psychotic episodes they have ilogical and bad ideas in their heads, that are link with their fears and insecurities, even if you tell them something logical it's really dificult to make them understand, they have to calm down first @@Jakokokoroko
"Does Powder have some kind of explosion proof magic?" nope, she just doesn't value her life.
A detail someone pointed out in the bridge scene is that the mechanical firelights are attracted to weapons (you can see them clinging to the enforcer's pistols and rifles) so if Cait hadn't given her weapon to save Vi, she'd propably be dead as well
I've seen that said too. It's a solid "perhaps", for me. 99% of the mechanical firelights that explode aren't sitting on weapons - there are hundreds of them.
I think the explosions could be triggered by something else (like by jinx herself) and the little insect bot thingys are just kinda hovering around trying to find the weapons. Some of them find, most don't, but explode all the same@@Hohum37
They were for sure attracted to the massive spotlights, but perhaps the glint of the metal made them more accurate to hit enforcers?
14:43 Viktor was not lucky, he knew exactly what he was doing. "There is ALWAYS a choice." His choice was to difuse the bomb.
When it comes to her gadgets, Jinx knows exactly what she's doing. A lesson she learned the hard way.
The Jinx v. Ekko fight always reminds of the Kakashi v. Obito fight. Old friends fighting, mirroring their fights as children.
Definitely. I love having that old vs young effect in fights, I just hope it doesn't get overused
I don't think Jinx's reaction on the bridge (calling Vi a liar) is as irrational as you're making it seem. If you only account for what Jinx is actually seeing through the binoculars: Ekko shows Marcus the gemstone, Ekko is shot, she then focuses on Marcus picking up the gemstone, and only then does she see Vi running back to them. She thinks Vi is trying to recover the gemstone, which she must have "lied" about knowing of. As the audience we know she's wrong and Vi is running back because she's worried about Caitlin being in imminent danger (it's unclear whether Jinx could hear Vi shout "Caitlin!" from where she was sitting or if that was just for the audience to hear), but I don't think her conclusion is unreasonable from her perspective.
I see your point, but: I think when a person with severe abandonment issues sees a primary attachment turn around when they thought they were going to be reunited, rationality takes a back seat. A rational person in Jinx's position would be thinking - "damn, there was a gunshot where my sister's friends just went, no wonder she's going back".
@@Hohum37 I don't think either train of thought is *irrational* though. Jinx's interpretation of events is certainly cynical/pessimistic, but not illogical based on the information she has.
@@bushpusherr If your friend went to help a car crash victim would you think they were abandoning you, would you hallucinate ghosts saying they were? Jinx only reacts so wildly because of very obvious mental issues.
@@Hohum37 If the car crash victim were smuggling a piece of plutonium that my friend was partly responsible for and that plutonium was being confiscated as a result of said crash then that would certainly complicate the situation.
I'm not saying Jinx is mentally sound or that she doesn't have abandonment issues, or that those aren't force multipliers her on misunderstanding of the situation - I'm saying her interpretation of *this* event isn't irrational. It's biased, but not crazy.
@Hohum37 yes but also...
"Why is my sister going back for them, when she didn't come back for me?"
You know what's more messed up? Ekko genuinely loved Powder when they were kids. And he still might. Only now he's got all these responsibilities and people depending on him. He can't let his past love cloud his judgment anymore.
Nah, they were just friends
In game, ekko has line that says: "I had a crush, until you started talking to the gun."@@charroboo
@@charroboo Not to pass off as rude, but do you mind getting your facts straight before replying?
@@regret.932 no
@@charroboo tell me you didn't play league without telling me. good job buddy.
I'll forgive u saying the firelight intro was corny only if lindsey shaves her head
Both. Both need to.
A Vi sidecut may be enough?
But it was extremely corny. Just as corny as the Imagine Dragons cameo, but at least that had interesting stuff happening during it.
why just her head?
@@Fionalah its an inside joke. if the main channel hits 100k he'll shave his head and we're peer pressuring her to shave it too lol
I think it's interesting how Mylo is by far the most prominent of Jinx's hallucinations.
He's the most vocal, which just reflects who he was to her as a brother. Always talking. Claggor nevers says anything, but is always there, just like he was in life.
It's sad as fuck.
Tied to her origins for the "Jinx" label
he was the one always criticizing her, he's the one who made her feel like she wasn'T good enaugh, it's because of that constant pressure of trying to prove herself that she became what she is.
Jinx has serious mental issues,. but the way they manifest makes sense. Unlike some portrayals of, say Harley Quinn or the Joker, she doesn't do crazy shit for little justification, just for cinematic effect.
Caitlyn has none of the real-world experience to be able to conclude that a better world is possible. Obviously it's right, and not just on moral grounds, but she has no business talking about ideals when she, at the end of the day, has no power to affect outcome. The beauty of this show is that this is also true for every other character.
Everyone in the show is moved by their material circumstances moreso than they are moved by morals.
Yeah, I like this show is good at showing that no side may be completely "right" with how things are handled.
While I completely agree that Caitlyn isn't street smart, she is most definitely book smart. And all smart books say that violence begets violence, which is what she said. What exactly did you expect her to say to Ekko? Yeah, go ahead, use this stone to kill or defense, good idea dude. Would that make her less naive in your eyes?
Caitlyn is naïve, but she doesn't turn her eyes away, and is willing to learn and re-evaluate based on new information. She has a good heart.
Not to mention leaving the gem will make firelights stuck between Silco goons and Piltover enforcers. Yeah, they will have some more leverage to fight both, but it's still smarter to make an ally from more reasonable side if you have an opportunity to do so.
Jayce isn't wrong about people from the undercity being dangerous, i mean his house gets blown up at the very start of the show. His technology stolen, a bunch of people killed in terrorist acts. He is not saying that literally everyone there is evil but it's strange how people skip over his perspective. Also it's fine to accept that some communities are more dangerous than others.
Yeah, i don't blame his shift in character. It makes sense with what he has witnessed throughout the show.
Imagine what the Undercity thinks about Piltover and the Enforcers.
@@KungFuKvn we do know it, but it seems to me that, while both have justifiable motivations, many people seem to more easily empathize with Jinx who is a literal mass murderer, and Jayce is treated like he's a douche, though he's done good things for his community and didn't really hurt anyone. Kinda funny.
Also Cait's plan isn't dumb. They need help from someone high up in Piltover, Silco may be the villain, but the damage is done and it's more cultural than anything.
@@recklesserves155he is difficult to watch, i think for most people... but he is good depiction of someone pressured on all sides.
The intro bit basically sums up all that the Firelights/Ekko are about and what they do.
Absolutely love the seen with Viktor diffusing the bomb, with him likely knowing he needed to cut that wire but in the moment after learning about jayces plan to make weapons hesitates, then saying there’s always a choice.
Yeah, i think both him and powder had the choice to end their lives in this episode. Viktor decided to try and forsake his legacy with unethical experiments; meanwhile jinx is just done with it after vi left her again, and decides she doesnt really gaf if the bomb gets her too.
My gosh you guys are the first to make me realize that Vi seeing the lights on the bridge reminded her of Vander asking her to take care of her sister. I also never noticed the dead flower. You guys are so observant
You can hear a metallic sound just before the explosion in the end. Maybe Ekko managed to kick it away.
Intro wasn't cheesy it was fire
There’s a great music video ARCANE animators did before this series release that shows Ekko and Powder as kids. It hints he always had a crush on her. Which helps explain some of his hesitation at the end. Such great character work!
idk why lil bro is beating his head on the table while Caitlyn is spitting facts.
She is right at the end of the day
But literally a few hours ago she was entirely dumbfounded why Vi wouldn’t know if her sister was alive or dead while she was rotting in a jail cell, and was entirely unaware of just how impoverished people were, yet she’s speaking like it were so simple.
She speaks so confidently about solving things she has no experience with and just learned mere hours before.
Just like with Jayce, here heart is in the right place, and she has the right idea. But she doesn’t actually know what she is talking about in terms of concrete action.
So you’re right, she’s not wrong. Just frustratingly naive in that moment
@@BOLDcasti think it's really easy to give the Pilties a hard time, mostly because they deserve it, without remembering their context.
Caitlyn has an understanding of the undercity informed by decades of being a noble woman's daughter and at least a few years of Enforcer training, none of which would include any of the hard facts about the undercity. You could rightly call that indoctrination, but either way, she's actively trying to synthesize what she's seeing and learning against decades of conflicting data, and not all of what she's seeing (rampant crime, drug abuse, violence) contradicts the information she has.
It's been less than two days faced with reality. Cait is naive but not stupid, and she's kind before she's judgmental. She's kind of the total opposite of Jayce, who's brilliant and willfully ignorant, judgmental and self righteous until he is *proven wrong.* it's the difference between an investigator and a scientist, one seeks facts to develop a theory and the other has a theory and pursues facts to prove or disprove it. The subtle distinction between these two is almost entirely philosophical, but it means everything in the context of how they behave in the show. It's why Jayce seems to constantly be flipflopping. He is absolutely sure of each hypothesis until it's proven wrong.
And before the science bros get mad, I'm aware that Jayce's example is not good empiricism. But if you've worked with enough engineers, you also know it's not inaccurate.
@@BOLDcast That frustrating aspect is one of my favorite parts about the way they crafted these characters so far. Even though they may seem irrational, stupid, or naive to an unbelievable level, there is always a reason or pattern of behavior that you can point to that explains their actions now. That aspect makes the characters feel a lot more engrained and realistic.
Seeing how your opinion of Cait mellowed as you guys talked through the reasoning for her actions is part of what makes this show so good :)
@@BOLDcast If you re-watch (and re-hear) the acting in that scene, she wasn't dunbfounded, just a bit surprised. Her intonation on "what? you don't have parents?" is weak surprise - bear in mind, one of her friends, Jayce, doesn't have a father, so the loss of a parent is not unknown to her.
the dude makes it hard to watch sometimes ngl
This episode has a lot of my favorite moments from Arcane,, it def feels like a constant build up through out the whole thing until everything comes to one big explosion at the end 💥
The score’s buildup before the bridge scene and viktor’s experiment definitively gives “everything is gonna go to shit”
Jinx didn't freak out on the bridge because Vi went to help Ekko. She freaked because she went to help Caitlyn. Vi even screams Caitlyn's name as she's running down the bridge. Jinx can see how close Vi and Caitlyn are becoming and is threatened by it. She saw that as Vi choosing Cait over her. She feels she's being replaced and by an Enforcer no less.
Also Jinx was ready to die there at the end. No protection.
oh hell yeah ekko time
Jayce Talis, ADHD himbo icon.
The beginning was great you guys are crazy
The Boy Savior!
Episode 7 is so good! Especially that ending scene. The animators did everything perfectly!
After seeing the graffiti skills of Ekko and firelights, I often think that some of the shenanigans of Powder (Jinx) rubbed off on him.
Caitlyn is naiive, but willing to be wrong, learn, and has a good heart. I'll take her over most other personality types.
How many Subscribers for Lindsay to go bald?! 🤔
100k on OP channel
Ekko my fucking goat, it was my first main in the game!!!!
During that last fight with the stopwatch that was Ekkos Ult from the game. He can jump into fights and travel back in time 5 seconds.
He doesn't have Hextech here tho. It's just a reference
@@TechnoArpan that’s what I mean, it’s referencing one of his moves from the game as an Easter egg. They had mentioned before the fight “what is he going to do with the watch? Hypnotize her?” He played out the scenario, clicked his stop watched, snapped back and fought jinx
This is kinda a spoiler its likely he and heimerdinger make it in s2
League Player Tries Not To Spoil Arcane Watchers About The Fates Of Characters Challenge (Impossible!)
@@VashTownEkko spoilers are weak shit. How come I don't see anyone advocating for some Glorious Evolution?
The Chembarons are interested in profit, not the good of people living in the undercity. I think it's arguable whether Silco is fighting for the undercity, or to advance his own position. Sevika is all about the cause that Silco talks about... probably more than he is.
I was watching news the other day and I realized what the hairdo is. It's the Klobuchar. She also sports the helmet. It's probably a good idea to shave and start with a blank slate.
besides the obvious fight scene, I think my favorite part of this episode is Viktor diffusing the grenade, where he says there's always a choice. IMO it was framed in a way that he was contemplating letting it explode to take him and Jayce out to prevent their technology from spiraling into weaponry.
My evidence being that he says it immediately after cutting the wire, and that there was only 1 wire to cut in the spot (though I guess there were or could be more wires)
I watched this episode a few times but I missed the dead plants.
the fight between jinx and eco is the craziest shit i’ve seen
Ekko vs Jinx was one of the sickest scenes I've ever seen in any show.
powder is literally a psychopath and cold blooded killer didnt even hesitated with that granade but then i see people defending powders acts lmao
She absolutely is.
A loveable psychopath tho
She did noticeably hesitate. As Ekko paused and looked at her, she didn't see someone looking at her with anger, fear or disgust - just an old friend - and I think in that moment, she didn't want to live any more. Her final expression isn't that of a psychopath, it's a wistful goodbye.
Shooting the downed, defenceless enforcer on the other hand...
@@Hohum37 I don't think jinx has the emotional capacity to think that much
Еееее Экко пришёл разваливать кабины, беги Джинкс!
Благодарю за видос
14:38 actually not lucky; Victor was thinking about killing the only two people who are able to weaponize hextech
one cool think for you guys to know is, ekko in the game has powers to rewind time, throught hextec technology, so his fight scene with jinx directly correlates with that
Wow, thanks for the spoilers. Care to tell us about all the other cool powers other characters in the game have?
@@VashTownyeah heimerdinger in game can create tiny turrets to attack enemies, is what his whole kit is built around
@@bLuGhOsT_ Funny that one of Heimer's line in Arcane was about 'No great science will put people in danger' or some shit, yet he throws explosives, launch waves of missiles, and installs death turrets in game.
Ref re-incorporating Viktor's boat in a scene - it will happen again.
Silco is cold af
Please react to Kenshin Samurai X Remake
gg bot diff
More people that don't bother to properly understand the characters and their perspective/context. Great. Another video I don't need to bother watching.
The only plothole I find in the whole series is: How come Ekko doesn't know the bridge's closed with all the intel he should have? It's a tiny but huge detail if you think about it because it unleashes the whole bridge scene (which is my favorite in the whole series btw) but if he knew the border's closed then he should've taken a different path and avoided the Enforcers, priving us from this masterfully executed scene so we're just gonna let is slide
I think he knows but you forgot that he actually have Caitlyn with him to represent him specifically knowing her status and connections but at the same time Caitlyn didn't know Marcos plan was to actually kill her
How would he know, it's not like he has a massive crime syndicate with thousands of spies it's just a small gang, and they literally just made the blockade like 24 hours ago.
@@tonylukban1880 that might be true... but Ekko's reaction is not of a knowing man 😂 still, we're nitpicking here as there're little to none to complain about
Remember when the blockade went up was when everyone, including Ekko, was deep into the undercity at the super slums. The Firelights are a sizable group, but not anywhere close to the influence of Silco, so we might assume that Ekko pulled most of his crew for the extremely important mission of gathering intel on Vi's return. In fact the Firelights are kinda insular, and by choice it seems since they like their little paradise. From my memory, we never actually see them casually interact with anyone else from the undercity, so it could be the case that the web of rumors has a hard time reaching them.
That's the best I could come up with, but it's still kind of a stretch yeah lol
I mean he was busy fighting jinx and vi at the time, then busy taking vi and cait to the hideout and talking to them then making the plan to go to piltover, not really any time to find that out. The firelights arent a large group, they were all in the fight, and all in their sanctuary after to recover.
Ekko’s little fight scene makes more sense if you play the game, with his abilities. I can’t explain due to possible spoilers
You guys ideologically possess it and capable of thinking rationally all of your tags are stupid at best and dangerous at worst you didn't even watch the show you just assumed you understood and didn't even try
firelight intro was corny, ID cameo was corny...oooh so edgy.
