"His inner criminal mastermind CPU" is the best thing I have ever heard. I don't know what about it is so funny but that is my favorite sentence ever.

Season 1 _unintended_ harm.. Season 2....

you know what is funny, watching this as a woman doesn't even feel like i am watching something "different". All these masculine stuff, nuanced personalities etc. feels just natural. Because it is how it is, we are all those things...

Understandable crash out

Then there’s Singed

Grayson was an underrated side character. She got to be the big strong face of the Enforcerers, but she was also strong at the core, and was strong FOR the people who she was trying to serve. Usually you see that in a male character like Vander, but it was cool to see it in Grayson. Im pretty sure Kathryn Hunter to voice her too...if you like Shakespeare (which it seems like Arcane is drawing some ideas from...just like most other Western works), Kathryn Hunter is THE best version of The Witches from the A24, Denzel led MacBeth.

Echos gotta fix all this man I’m going to crash out

I disagree with so much of this Dany always had red flags

We really could use a full episode of what happened to Silco where he could be so good in that season 2 flashback to season 1 where he has no problems killing the kids he promised to give a future to

Wow this really aged like fine wine! Props for the great analysis!

Please do analysis of scavengers reign 🙏🙏

I find it interesting that many, not all but many of the traits we consider "cool" aren't really altruistic? We uplift those ideals even if they don't really help society as a whole, just found it interesting that even though Vi has empathy and kindness in her and even Jinx to a lesser degree, those arent part of the "cool" traits, not in a judgemental way but as an interesting thought bubble kind of tidbit as someone who loves reading and writing

Ekko needs his own show where he bring about a positive change an becomes the hero of Zain

ANNE RICE HELL YA

2:38 Sevika is giving off heavy "tired mom" vibes. Like, she's so done with her daughter's antics lol

Spoiler for season two . . . . The fact Vander gave Violet her name! My heart!! ❤️ Although it makes what Silco planned to do with Vander and the kids even more evil. It’s shocking he was so wrapped up in his vision of Zaun that he was willing to kill Felicia’s children.

LOVE to see him back!!!

I wouldn’t say that jinx was at her healthiest mentally. I would say that because she’s so isolated from the loss for Silco she’s suppressed here feelings so much she’s become numb. The next episode she is willing to let Vi take her life!!

I would love a Jayce commentary/analysis for this season! I feel it would be amazing

Vi's plans after getting out of prison probably: - Reunite with Powder - Beat the shit out of Sevika - Beat the shit out of Silco - Live happily ever after What actually happened: - Powder is... DIFFERENT??? :0 ✓ Beat the shit out of Sevika - Did not beat the shit out of Silco - Gay situationship

1:51 aight ik im a two years late and a dollar short, but Arwen literally gave her life up for love which is literally the coolest sacrifice of all time, and no she was not manipulated by a man to do so, but rather defied her own father, and CHOSE to love Aragorn herself. Don't do her like that

I’m not gonna lie I though licker man was Deckard for a very long time

I think shimmer has a link to the void, but the "normal" hexcore is just the arcane.

She has BPD and Vi is her favorite person. So she looks to her to know everything from how to feel, whether or not she is valued, everything. And when Vi rejects her that is why she reacts to aggressively and why her mind breaks, as losing a FP to someone with BPD is tantamount to losing your reason for living, existing, your self value, everything.

Funny thing, they worked all of it backwards, they had the designs and kind of a layout of the characters personalities, and they made them make sense, made their weapons fit them with great storytelling.~ It's not that they chose a precision rifle because of Cait's personality, she has that personality BECAUSE she had a rifle and it'd be cooler if it all made sense.

star wars and marvel should be taking notes

WHY DOES HE SOUND LIKE THE “(insert movie name here) explained by an idiot” GUY BUT SMARTER 😭

You need to make a video about Silco’s line in season 1 “There is a monster buried inside all of us, it’s time for it to emerge to the surface” But apply it to season 2 and its characters. There have been a lot of changes to a lot of characters, Caitlyn, Vander, Viktor and maybe some contribute to that underlying theme of the monster inside people, and some “monsters” who are going in interesting directions, like Jinks (Who I consider to be the monster beneath Powder who took over, in my opinion and own reading)

hmmmmm.......... maybe i should make a collider for exchange of all my Christmas and birthday presents for a chance to see my dogs again... I miss them...

I usually never comment on videos, but WOW! FANTASTIC ANALYSIS !

I think Harley is built without the realization that for most ppl with mental illness, it’s being trapped in ur own personal hell. Like it’s terrible, unsexy, and isolating. Jinx taps into the reality of that, how having such an odd, twisted logic isolates u, alienates you from others. Harley on the other hand doesn’t do this, at least not nearly to the same extent

Can’t believe he put in the fact the vik will get a third arm like I just realized that

Such a great video. Thanks Schnee! 🎉

I would really like to see a movie with a message to men "It's okay to be weak. You don't have to be strong all the time. Just be yourself."

im so dissapointed to know that this creator is a zionist

This gender analysis was stunning and made me realize why I love the show so much. I have told everyone "the characters seem so real and raw and have good development" and you explained how the writers did so.

coming back to this after S2E6 //SPOILER ALERT// // // is so interesting because all of the people in the commune that he "saved" aren't breathing and are dead, essentially having created an army of zombies following Viktor, who is following the Hexcore/Void, so your second theory might actually be right !!

Just wanted to say thank you so much for all of your posts on Arcane. I have enjoyed the series so much and it kind of breaks my heart that it's coming to an end, for now at least. I've been delaying watching the last episode as long as possible. I'm about to hit the play button with anticipation to see how it all unfolds or leaves us all hanging. With all the new elements being brought up in the recent episodes I can't imagine that there is a summation to all of the madness. Not sure what I enjoy more watching the series the first time or listening to your in-depth and nuanced analysis of moments and themes throughout the show. Going back and watching them with new eyes and more appreciation for what I've already seen. Love it. Love your work. Thank you so much.

As a mother myself i liked a lot to see strong female characters that still have motherhood literally or not, in these days i often see how bad it is to become a mother and how negative and uncool is to be a loving mother. That make you weak, not free, unvalued, and many negative stuff media put out nowadays for people that still embrace being a parent. Sevika is strong, she doesn't like Jinx at first, yet she does everything to protect her and cheer her when Silco died. Also Sevika is a "disabled" character, but nothing stops her from being the strong loving woman she is, even though her morals are discussable. She sticks to her morals, to her loved ones and also is a keeper. I liked that a lot.

This is the scene that made me a believer in Arcane. Before this I thought it was pretty good but I was still skeptical in trusting the writers with how they would handle things. Specially with Jinx/Powder’s character After this sequence though, I was floored. I realized I was in the presence of greatness

Looking at season 2 actualy makes no since he was gonna kill his x freinds kids??

It's definitely an ethical and bias issue with Heimerdinger. He is as you said disturbed that a Zaunite could invent something more world defining than himself and he can see Viktor trying to overcome the natural order of the world through questionable means such as researching forbidden territory.

She also makes her facts come true

Yes but sharks are misunderstood they look dangerous and can sometimes bite but mostly by accident or are trying to defend themselves. But most of all they are lovable creatures. Just like jinx she looks dangerous but is just powder on the inside... Misunderstood.

I'm not be waiting patiently again about act 3, jin'x shouldn't be uncertainly again to execution and regardless about convincing her to rebellion entire who make the suffer as invaders her life🔥🔥🔥✊✊ #TEAMBLUETHEREBELSUFFER🔥🥶🥶

I don't think anyone would look to Vi as a leader at that time. She was a child.

What I don't understand is why kill the kids even tho he knows the parents, he even was a friend of them

I love chuck

Season 2 especially act 2 sees jinx being so much more empathetic, and it’s a really dramatic shift that sort of happens offscreen. Season 2 jinx changes so much about this video

Now I'm wondering how Sevika came to be Silco's goon. Was it ever explained?
