JINX & VI HAVE US STRESSING!!😭 - Arcane Season 2 Episode 3 "Finally Got The Name Right" REACTION!!

[@coldfury2652]

“They can’t catch a break up here” It’s there gas😂

[@FOXDIE2100]

They get to breath the air for idk 10 min, and Zaun's had to breath it for decades...

[@morlock2012]

I mean, it's gas from the fissures, not pumped down there by Piltover. (Contamination from the hexgates system is a separate thing). And the Kirramans helped build the ventilation system that keeps it somewhat under control in the Lanes, though I'm not trying to wave away the obvious neglect afterwards. But yes, they've forgotten how much they're insulated from the processes that generate a lot of their wealth. And Jinx has just shown them how tightly they're still bound to Zaun, and how vulnerable that leaves them.

I said the same shit 😂

[@NightSterling]

20:10 I think that might've been jinx's plan to be like "hey jinx is dead celebrate with some fireworks"

[@sounesssa]

It's crazy to me that Jinx planned everything in this last episode because she wanted Vi to kill her, the colorfull explosions were like her last message to Piltover, that's why she was upset when the kid came to save her and said that it wasn't suposed to go like that. Also the way she was prepared to die saying "I'M READY" and many times she repeated through these episodes that she jus't can't seem to die "Im going to finish with what's left of my family" she was talking about herself...man...it's so sad.

[@KaylaHigbeeVO]

Heartwrenching :(

[@Jaemy_art]

Goddamit man

[@phucniyah]

Yes i noiced in 2nd watch like the first watch kinda lost for so much thing is going on but on the 2nd run and 3rd run,man it so good. A masterpiêc! It need noiced stỏy telling and detail to know and get along with what going some ppl just watch it ignore many thing and get lost. They call it not good or bêttẻr than last one and lack emotion. It so sad for those ppl not seing how great it is. The show really good

[@kdash506]

The image of vi crushing jinx's head with her gauntlet ran through my mind during this fight. Chills.

[@LalaGonzalez-k9m]

Wow, friend, I hadn't seen it that way 😧 the fact that she herself realizes that she brings bad luck and thinks that "eliminating what's left of her family" refers to herself... how sad

[@KaylaHigbeeVO]

I still cannot believe Cait took her mom's invention, intended to protect the undercity and diminish pollution, and used it to GAS THE LANES. And Vi LET HER. That's insane.

[@AvereeChaloupka]

Vi's fondness for Cait blinded her too.

[@butecodesentina1766]

i mean she was just using against criminals

[@toamszkozak8822]

I don't know if you noticed but they used the grey to keep people away from their fights with gangs and Jinx

[@welingtondas.c.guimaraes6336]

@@butecodesentina1766 Vander was a criminal. Vi was too, just like Ekko... In the eyes of Piltover, who in Zaun is not a criminal?

[@phucniyah]

Vi dont want cait to change as she said in kissing sence. But the truth í tough the crown is heavy for cait shê has her mon position and reponsive and her purpose to avenger for her mom. Cait is change she using vi to get close with jinx though it will make vi kill her silbing. Vi chose cait who as a last family to her. It so tragic that vi try to do a thing that will be easy to dẻstoyed

[@Wullow.]

20:57 Caitlyn also ended up hitting her right in the place of her old stab wound from sevika, the one that she helped to heal 😭

[@morlock2012]

yeah, realised this while watching this reaction, too. And it's a mirror of Oil and Water, Vi claiming they're too different to be together and turning away. So good.

[@DerekRodriguez-i4u]

No, Cait hit her in the gut, Sevika stabbed her in the side

[@SilverCrow0101]

Cassandra: the people of the underground deserve to breathe Caitlyn: not anymore

[@Sinderance_]

I think what Jinx did was mix the Grey in with dye to give it her flair.

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

Just like Powder, Vi was hit and left crying by the person she connected to the most. She's been hit way worse, and yet that hurt the most.

[@ChIMeRaTeX]

Yeah, remember in season 1, at the end of every third episode, Powder/Jinx was alone and crying. I have a STRONG feeling they gonna mirror this with Vi in season 2. I'm scared.

[@InstantSilence]

21:18 She had cannisters that mixed paint in with the Grey as it shot up through the vents, so it's still very much toxic.

[@silver9wolf6]

Uh-huh, it's why the kid is all red eyed and in a mask at the end

[@DarthKay093]

Caitlyn's hate for Jinx and wanting her revenge for her mothers death has now been weaponised by the most dangerous person it could. Now I fear they won't stop until they have Jinx on the execution block so to speak since wherever she wants to or not Jinx's is Zaun personified

[@LalaGonzalez-k9m]

Yes, I fear that too. Caitlyn will stop until she kills Jinx and realizes that it won't solve anything and I want Caitlyn to realize what she's doing, but I don't want Jinx to die, although I doubt she will.

[@morlock2012]

Agreed. Suspect a lot of the theme revolves around how hard it is to remain a police(wo)man when the world demands wolves and monsters to handle their fighting.

[@Obosii]

They’re Clagor’s goggles.

[@moondust0013]

i think they know that, but after clagor's death, i believe jinx always wore it, she wore it while fixing sevika's arm in this episode too

[@sinixynta]

ngl, the entire introductory sequence/montage of Cait's strike team running around feels like it should've been an entire episode. Hell, all of Act 1 feels like it should've been a whole season

[@OrganicNith]

That last fight took me on a rollercoaster of emotions, Arcane is perfection.

[@cbagz15]

Can't believe both released in a few hours... So Hyped

[@CaraPrezReacts]

We were too hyped to hold it back from you guys!

[@raverdeath100]

Caitlyn is becoming "Piltover Jinx" imo. the parallels have been there since season one. Jinx on the other hand looks like she's going to be influenced by Isha (the kid) in some way. Vi is stuck in the middle again. Roll on Act 2

[@morlock2012]

Is there anything so undoing as a daughter? That seems to be going for Caitlyn as well as Isha, whereas in V1 it was Jinx and Vi.

[@Obosii]

18:13 “Bitch!?!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Rejinx]

20:00 After holding an entire nation under foot for generations, they are finally reaping what they sow.

[@FindOSUBeatmapsHere]

Singed's experiment's were always messed up. Most of his experiments are straight up nightmare material in the novels

[@DevSoule]

The gun jinx used to shoot the missile wasn't affected by hextech thing because its not the gun with hextech. The guns are the same ones she uses in league of legends so they all have names and are easy to tell to players. The machine gun she uses is called PowPow, the one that shot the missile is Fishbones, the one the kid picks up is Zaper, the one with hextech she used last doesn't have a name but the attack is called super mega death rocket.

[@umsdjgsndgjsdgh]

The rocket launcher did have a hextech gem in it until it exploded during the fight. We see it in S2 act 2 sneak peak that she uses the leftover hextexh gem to modify her pistol

[@darkblack5317]

Thanks for dropping your guys reactions for Act 1 fast on KZbin!

[@ChIMeRaTeX]

Not going to spoil anything, but the fact that the black rose is getting involved is TERRIFYING. Things can get REAL messy real quick lol. What on earth did Ambessa's son do to upset the black rose to THIS extent. Killing the son, chasing Ambessa across countries, infiltrating a foreign city and state, kidnapping her daughter. This shit is going to be insane.

[@xUNLUCKYxSEVENx]

Well I think they would've called it even and left them alone after killing her son, but when they found out embesa went to piltover to get hex tech for retribution, that's when they decided to come and stop her

[@Kevin61733]

Wait I just realized what Mels mom did. She had people of Zaun attack to bait out a war to use Hextech then for Piltover to make hextech weapons to then take control and use them for her own war back home. Didnt realize it in the first watch over, because the assassin from the blackrose said she knows what shes really after which is the Hextech technology. This most likely will bleed into their next show that most likely will be Noxius vs Demacia.

[@rinzzler366]

All hail Queen Caitlyn, Dictator of Piltover

[@midnight1672]

Yeah, they certainly set her up to look the part. But if season one has shown me one thing is that it's capable of subverting expectations, so I think it's entirely possible that Caitlyn realizes this soon enough to steer clear of that path. I guess we'll see.

[@Loliston]

​@@midnight1672Ambessa is exploring Cait's grief and rage, once the pain of her mother's fate fades a little, like Vi said, the hole gets smaller although never gets filled, she'll see her place inside Ambessa's manipulations

[@midnight1672]

@@Loliston Probably a typo and you meant "exploiting" rather than "exploring"? But yeah, I agree. The show has a good track record for making its characters act smarter than just one dimensional comic book characters on their fixed trajectory.

[@TheTaccheggialo]

LOL , you mean Ambessa's puppet, don't you?

[@midnight1672]

@@TheTaccheggialo Once again, I wouldn't underestimate Caitlyn. She may be grieving now and Ambessa exploiting this, but by no means is she stupid or can't hold her own. I wouldn't be surprised if by the end of season 2 or maybe even act 2, she'll have seen through Ambessa's manipulations and foil her attempts at exploiting them.

I like that this act show the oposite roles these sisters had from the first season arc: in the first arc of seaon 1, Vi had a younger sibbling who looked up for her and she worried about and then Powder is left alone by Vi after some big events and , now, Vi was left alone by Caitlyn and Jinx has a younger sibbling image that looks up for her and she also worry for this person.

yeah i noticed that too, bro undercity has been oppressed by topside for hundreds of years and the people down there having to live with bad air. The ones who deserve a break is the undercity.

[@messibessi11]

Yep so what’s happening with the gray and why the air is suddenly so bad in the undercity is the topsiders are closing off all the smog vents. And at the end of this episode it was jinx opening the vents back up with extreme theatrics

[@tavisays9614]

if you think about it, this ending wasnt a cliffhanger, it ended on a high note, a climatic development. aside from Jayce and crew in the Hexgate, it felt like this is a checkpoint in the story.

[@SinematicClips]

sometimes knowing the champions from the game and the league lore can be a blessing and a curse, it can definitley be spoilers but then theres other times like in this episode when it just builds up the hype so much, i'd personally recommend not researching the black rose cabal or what the scientist is doing with the huge creature as it will likely feel more like spoilers to non league players who already learned this stuff ages ago

[@ranniwolves]

“i want some character death this season” famous last words…

The episode where Noxus invades Piltover and the operation to solidify Ambesa's position was so cool and creepy.

[@toffbear]

The voice actor of jinx said in season 2 there is a moment when jinx is close to her normal self. It could be isha is a opportunity to heal her inner child plus jinx doesn't seem to br hearing voices anymore

[@gustavgustav2670]

I am so interested about what's going on between Black Rose and Ambessa. No wonder why she's spooked if you know league lore you know

[@aspieanarchist5439]

Kino was Mel`s brother and he was murdered by the Black Rose who are a secret society who ruled Noxus centuries ago, officially they were overthrown by the Trifarian Generals but really they went underground and set up spy networks in all nations of Runeterra(Noxus, Zaun, Piltover, Ionia, Shurima, the Shadow Isles. Targon).

Everyone thinks Ambessa is manipulating everyone else. But in fact, the person who has been manipulating everyone from the very beginning is Leblanc herself. This is her lore: Mysterious even to other members of the Black Rose cabal, LeBlanc is but one of many names for a pale woman who has manipulated people and events since the earliest days of Noxus. Using her magic to mirror herself, the sorceress can appear to anyone, anywhere, and even be in many places at once. Always plotting just out of sight, LeBlanc’s true motives are as inscrutable as her shifting identity. Thank you.

​@justinlee7039 Leblanc IS in arcane. The moment thr black rose was revealed, Leblanc has had a hand of some sort of the events.

I don't think LB was planned in the first season of Arcane. But because they are fusing Arcane Lore and OG Lore and Ambessa is a new champion they have a intersection. Now LBs operation is in there somewhere, because she has business with Ambessa. I don't think LB would be in Arcane if it wasn't for Ambessa and her connection to Noxus and the Black Rose. Because of that I don't think that LB is behind it all. I think only Ambessa is behind the manipulation of Piltover. Because in the end Ambessa wants to take over Piltover. That also fits with Noxus as Region "Under threat from all sides, they aggressively took the fight to their enemies, pushing their borders outward with each passing year.". So yea, thats my take. I also could see a potentional next season playing in Noxus.

it's still a great show, but tbh feels a bit 'dumbed down' compared to season 1... Heimerdinger felt like he got caricatured compared to his character in S1, and while the whole show was a spectacle, some of the "symbolism" were in your face, and not even subtle; i understand that a lot of ppl were looking forward to this, as i've been too, but it felt a little bit rushed - let's hope the next 2 arcs will even the story out
