This is the single best episode of a fictional show that I’ve ever seen. It’s absolutely masterful in all categories.

@Tyrant25-r6y Ай бұрын

This episode goes off like a bomb. At a time when most shows are wrapping up their expository episodes, this show kills half the characters you’ve met and shatters all their existing dynamics.

And here's where Arcane reveals one of the most darkly brilliant misdirections in entertainment history. We've been led to believe this entire time we're watching a triumphant "hero" origin story, while a tragic "villain" origin was actually hiding in plain sight the whole time.

@Gongibongi Ай бұрын

The way this episode manages to bring you down with the sadness of it all, the desperation of everyone involved and the urgency, then props you up with happiness and a lighter moment giving you hope, to then just plunge you headfirst into despair is an absolute masterclass in story telling.

25:03 That frame with Powder's eye - look up the painting "The Fallen Angel" (L'Ange déchu) by Alexandre Cabanel. The Arcane creators know their art.

@blackshard641 Ай бұрын

You're right, though... Powder's voice actress (only about 11 at the time of recording) was PHENOMENAL at the end there. She's absolutely heartbreaking.

@ClockMonsterLA Ай бұрын

This was the episode that convinced nearly everyone who saw it that ARCANE was an absolute masterpiece of dramatic storytelling.

@wootcat Ай бұрын

Loved your reaction! The part that breaks me the most is that Vi's plan was working. Milo got Vander out of the shackles, Claggor broke through the wall, giving them an escape route. They. Were. Free. And then, Powder's monkey entered the ring.

@rromano158 Ай бұрын

Silco is not a scientist, he's more of an entrepreneur. The doctor or scientist is named Singed. He's the one you saw in the first episode telling Silco that the "serum" was almost ready. As you can see, Powder suffers from emotional trauma and a severe case of separation anxiety.

Ooooh man, I just realized you're watching this now for the first time (as in, you're watching this in Septermber of 2024 and uploaded this 7 hours ago!). Super excited for you to experience this series for the first time. You're getting in at the perfect time obviously because Season 2 is coming out in November. Also you're clearly observing some details/names really well, which should help your appreciation for the show! You do a great job of summarizing and introing the episode showing what you understand. I'll be checking in to see your reactions to each episode as every one of them is special. Enjoy!

One of the more subtle things I enjoy the most about this episode is when Silco asks Powder "Where's your sister?" and Powder replies with "She left me, she is not my sister anymore." While Silco looks at the body of Vander, his former brother. Feeling the same betrayal Powder does in that moment. That's why he can relate with her and takes her in. He sees himself in her. This show is filled with parrallells and it's so beautiful.

I knew you would love this series. And honestly your reaction to the end was pretty similar to mine, Powder desperately wailing after Vi left literally tore my heart out….. which is the least of what I wanted to do to Silco for laying his hands on her.

Important detail that a lot of people do not notice at the first watch: The woman that protected Silco using her own body (we can see how her arm blows up) was the same one who previously "challenged" Vander at the bar, called him weak and left.

I think the bunny is a metaphor for childhood innocence. Vi had hers taken away early and was forced into this role of caretaker for her sister, and at the end of last episode she finally retrieves it but not for herself, for Powder. She is making a sacrifice to preserve her sister's childhood a little longer But we see Powder take that bunny, that innocence, with her to the warehouse, and both are forever tainted by what happens there

You've probably heard this already and will probably hear this many times more but check out "Bridging the Rift" the making of Arcane mini documentary. It's divided into 5 parts (I think) and gives you a great insight into almost every aspect of how this incredible series was made. The history of how the showrunners got hired in at Riot Games, a little history on our two favorite Undercity misfits, the animation teams, the writers, the music, the sound effects, red carpet interviews and finally...the world premiere of the first three episodes. It's great reaction material!!!

Some damn good voice acting in this ep, can you believe that powders voice actor was only 14 when she recorded her lines?

@Tekkerue Ай бұрын

She was even younger than that. In interviews she said she was cast at the age of 10 and turned 11 while working on it. Also, in the behind the scenes documentary the creators joked about making an 11-12 year old girl cry. lol She is one of the best things about Arcane and that is saying A LOT! Absolutely incredible! 🤯

The bridge scenario was an uprising, a rebellion, certainly. "Insurrection" implies it being done by someone with a degree of "insider"-ness that Pillocks don't ascribe to Zaunites, I think.
