I'VE NEVER CRIED THIS MUCH (Arcane S2 Ep 4-6 reactions)

[@Whorpse]

"I think the little girl and jinx bond is going to grow stronger." 😭😭😭😭😭

[@geenahreads]

Please know, editing these episodes SUCKED. I fear the wound will never fully heal now.

[@Hawkido]

@@geenahreads "The hole gets smaller, but it never goes away"

[@_Will1]

The end where you talk about the way the shows emotions linger is so real 😭

[@ColinsComments]

I love that you can see Cait figure everything out after Vi says "I'm trying to save my dad." So much of her character is in her eyes.

[@Hawkido]

Another case of Piltovan harm inflicted on Zaun, and Zaun getting blamed for what a Piltovan Alchemist did after being flushed down into Zaun like the rest of the garbage.

[@julioromani3451]

"But was the purpose just to hurt my feelings" Girl, i was crying with you and ended laughing for that comment 😂

[@andreascaviezel9500]

I love your reaction. Especially the little tear during the Isha-Dance. It's good to see an experienced man with such a human gesture. It means that I'm allowed to do it too. I'm 32, and I locked my feelings away a long time ago. For 3 years I've been working hard to let them in again. Arcane and the 62 reaction videos have triggered a lot in me. Every now and then I'm allowed to shed a tear too. And it fills me with joy, because it proves that all is not lost for me.

[@nokta7373]

I feel you. Isha's death was something. The hallmark of good storytelling imo is how much of it it's left in you after you finish it and for how long it messes you up. Arcane characters, story and narrative is brilliant, and the fact it lingers in you for so long and so intensely after you have finished it, it really speaks on how good it is. It's rare. Another story that broke me for a literal week was when I played The Last of Us.

[@douglas2938]

23:00 In S1 it was loosely defined, so there were no wrong guesses. If you rewatch it now while memory is fresh, there are strong retcon vibes with how much S2 portrays both Silco and Vander present in the kids' lives from the start.

[@ahausch1]

No retcon in the show, season 1 and 2 were written togetger as a whole with everything in mind from the start. Details might have changed down the road if course, but i doubt fundamentals like Vanders and Silcos history were conveniently made up after the fact.

[@douglas2938]

@@ahausch1 I know that they were planned that way, but a lot could change between seasons, some stuff might be added, some be left on the cutting room floor. Like I said, if you go back and watch S1 now, paying attention to Vander and (especially) Silco, it doesn't all add up.

[@Silly_mcWilly]

@@douglas2938what part doesnt add up? Wanna know an example js trynna see

[@Ladco77]

In Isha's flashbacks of her and Jinx dancing, Jinx's eyes turned blue again. It happened several times when they were together. The little girl who didn't speak was able to quiet the voices in Jinx's head.

[@mlivraghi]

Two small details: Caitlyn could have cleaned herself in many ways, but she chooses to drag Vi's spit onto her lips with her fist. While Jinx is framed with Caitlyn at gunpoint in the tent, Vi can be heard saying: "Vander is in danger, I have a plan, but you won't like it". I see that so many misunderstand or don't pay attention, but that is Vi who says it to Jinx before she gets captured, so Jinx already knows that Caitlyn is helping her and that's why she defends her

[@eli6234]

I love when a show/book has that much of an affect on us. I've already seen this and I still teared up when you started to, thanks for the reactions

[@justsomeone1038]

Gina... I enjoy the energy you have in your reactions. Similar to mine so probably why. The show is an emotional Rollercoaster with extra steps. Episode 7 is probably the only release from all the pain this show deals out.

[@wwklnd]

Oh goddamn I've been waiting for you to watch this!

[@geenahreads]

Enjoy all of my tears!

[@wwklnd]

@@geenahreads Now I'm looking forward to the next three instead, episode 7 was definitely my favourite episode of the entire series. :)

[@wwklnd]

@@geenahreads Oh, also, I'm learning (Mandarin) Chinese, so while I didn't understand all of the lyrics to the final song of episode 6, I picked up enough for it to hurt extra lmao. For those curious, the final line of the song basically means "I'm fine like this", and yeah, oof.

[@aero21121212]

Don't worry about haters. It is frustrating when someone misses something but that comes from the desire to see that person enjoy the show. Some people really can't put themselves in THIER OWN shoes from like a month ago before they saw it all. As someone with ADHD i miss alot in shows but also pick up on the strangest things. But thats what makes uncovering all the things i missed after so fun. Glad you are enjoying the show! Your videos are great!

[@phonmunky]

It’s sad that Ishas purpose was to heal Jinx and teach her what Vi meant in season 1 episode 3, with the same outcome of losing someone that meant everything to her. Miss you Isha

[@aero21121212]

Jinx is fucking WILD this act lol. "Don't think you can swim huh, lefty" "Bitch mittens" "Looks like you've got a couple (of conditions)" Everyone catching jabs when Jinx is around lmao she carries so much of this shows humor its great

[@SaturnG_url]

One second I was laughing at jinx and the next I was sobbing my eyes out

[@geenahreads]

Jinx didn’t hold back and I love her for that lol

[@iamDayaa]

I couldn't get over it for several weeks.

[@excavenger3451]

the fact that isha started as this scared little rat hiding in the vents and after meeting jinx she found the courage to throw herself in the way of danger to protect the one she admires and loves

[@Hawkido]

At the start Isha wears yellow leggings and is afraid and constantly running. After being accepted by Jinx, she wears Jinx's Purple leggings and only ever runs into danger, no longer away from danger.

[@waynepolo6193]

The song at the end is just so beautiful, but when I found the official video I couldn’t help but feel the subtitles weren’t doing it full justice. I left my own revised translation of the lyrics in a comment on that video. I’ll repost it here for you, as I feel like you might be the type to appreciate the beauty of this song as well. The title of the song is “{Isha’s song} 这样很好” (zhèyàng hěn hǎo) - can be translated as “It’s alright for things to be this way...” 孩子別 怕荊棘 Háizǐ bié pà jīngjí (Child, Don’t be afraid of the thorns,) 赤著腳 就 能尋到 珍貴 chìzhe jiǎo jiù néng xún dào zhēnguì (Barefooted [across them], is how you will come to find what is most precious) 你看這個 天黑 焰火有多美 nǐ kàn zhège tiānhēi yànhuǒ yǒu duō měi (You see only in these darkest of skies the fireworks in all their beauty) 無需太多 的傷悲 wúxū tài duō de shāng bēi (There's no need for all this sadness) 人本都在 茂盛枯萎 rén běn dōu zài màoshèng kūwěi (We are all bounded by nature, to bloom and to wither) 但頑石和塊壘 也開花蕊 dàn wán shíhé kuàilěi yě kāihuā ruǐ (Yet, even the most obstinate stone and rubble bloom with flowers.) 撥開山嶺 讓她看看我 Bō kāi shānlǐng ràng tā kàn kàn wǒ (Push aside the mountains, let her see me) 告訴繁星 快些照亮我 gàosù fánxīng kuài xiē zhào liàng wǒ (Tell the countless stars to hurry their light toward me) 吹散烏雲 用一抹藍色 chuī sàn wūyún yòng yīmǒ lán sè (Blow away the dark clouds that gaum me in blue) [in parts of China, blue is symbolic of grief and mourning] 那就算 世界滿是荒蕪我們 抬頭就能 看見月亮 Nà jiùsuàn shìjiè mǎn shì huāngwú wǒmen táitóu jiù néng kànjiàn yuèliàng (Even if the world is nothing but desolate wasteland, we can still lift our heads up and see the moon shining) 在我們還是 孩子的模樣 Zài wǒmen háishì háizǐ de múyàng (There was a time that, while we still looked and acted like children…) 做雖千萬人 也要盛開 的孤芳 Zuò suī qiān wàn rén yě yào shèngkāi de gū fāng (…in a field amongst millions, we yearned to bloom with fragrance and splendor [to stand out; become what we were meant to be].) 別再憂傷煩惱 Bié zài yōushāng fánnǎo (Do not tarry in grief or worry) 別忘 Bié wàng (Don’t forget) 就算流淚 也要一直 奔跑 jiùsuàn liúlèi yě yào yīzhí bēnpǎo (Even if the tears flow, keep running forward) 跑到連時 間都 找不到 Pǎo dào lián shíjiān dōu zhǎo bù dào (Run until even time cannot be found) 做天邊的飛鳥 Zuò tiānbiān de fēiniǎo (Be as a bird, flying on toward the next horizon) 撥開山嶺 讓她看看我 Bō kāi shānlǐng ràng tā kàn kàn wǒ (Push aside the mountains, let her see me) 告訴繁星 快些照亮我 gàosù fánxīng kuài xiē zhào liàng wǒ (Tell the countless stars to hurry their light toward me) 吹散烏雲 用一抹藍色 chuī sàn wūyún yòng yīmǒ lán sè (Blow away the dark clouds that gaum me in blue) 那就算 世界滿是荒蕪我們 抬頭就能 看見月亮 Nà jiùsuàn shìjiè mǎn shì huāngwú wǒmen táitóu jiù néng kànjiàn yuèliàng (Even if the world is nothing but desolate wasteland, we can still lift our heads up and see the moon shining) 在我們還是 孩子的模樣 Zài wǒmen háishì háizǐ de múyàng (There was a time that, while we still looked and acted like children…) 做雖千萬人 也要盛開 的孤芳 Zuò suī qiān wàn rén yě yào shèngkāi de gū fāng (…in a field amongst millions, we still yearned to bloom with fragrance and splendor.) 別再憂傷煩惱 Bié zài yōushāng fánnǎo (Do not burden yourself with worry anymore) 別忘 Bié wàng (Don’t forget) 就算流淚 也要一直 奔跑 jiùsuàn liúlèi yě yào yīzhí bēnpǎo (Even if the tears flow, keep running forward) 跑到連時 間都 找不到 Pǎo dào lián shíjiān dōu zhǎo bù dào (Run until even time cannot be found) 做天邊的飛鳥 Zuò tiānbiān de fēiniǎo (As the bird flies off toward the furthest horizon) 別再尋找 Bié zài xúnzhǎo (Do not come searching) 給我一個擁抱 Gěi wǒ yīgè yǒngbào (Give me a hug) 就安靜地忘掉 jiù ānjìng de wàngdiào (Then quietly let go) 我這樣就很好 wǒ zhèyàng jiù hěn hǎo (I’m fine the way I am)

[@untitled834]

Never worry about not picking up on every detail omg I had to rewatch every episode at least once to get everything!! Its really fast paced sometimes

[@dejavu2030]

Oh the emotional connection to these characters is strongggg... I don't know any fans who watched and didn't cry, I know I did.

[@seanrilian]

You didn't miss anything between Vander, Silco, and Felicia. They definitely come across as a found family and I assume they grew up together the same way as Vi, Powder, Claggor, and Mylo. And it isn't a stretch to imagine that Vander and Silco were both godfathers to Vi and Powder, so that they ended up taking after them is so very fitting. It explains moreso why Silco chose to adopt Powder in the wake of everything that happened in the first act of season 1. Also in terms of how the show makes us all feel, yeah, it's an emotionally devastating tragedy. But that's what good art does, it makes us feel deeply. And when we allow ourselves to feel this deeply, even about something that isn't real, we can learn something that IS real about ourselves. Rest in peace Isha, a light of hope that cannot be dimmed.

[@SoulWolf2852]

But silco was ready to kill Powder. Thats why he held up the knife. And I DOUBT Riot would fuck up continuity like that

[@seanrilian]

@SoulWolf2852 everyone was in a heightened emotional state in that scene. He was angry and ready to kill until he saw in her exactly what he felt towards Vander. I still think that wouldn't be enough to justify adoption by itself, but having previously been a godfather causes it make a lot of sense.

[@Todesnuss]

@@seanrilian I don't think he'd been a godfather like Vander. Rather "the other uncle" when their parents were still around. During the period where Vander had a fatherly role Silco wouldn't have met them but it explains a lot if they were familiar before that.

[@PlaneToSpain]

A lot of people miss the small shot of Singed standing back up in the wreckage after being knocked out, implying he injected Warwick/Vander with the serum that would prevent Viktor from helping him. But I also believe Viktor's death impacted that as well, but mostly the serum.

[@Rizubethu]

Isha's purpose was to heal Jinx and remind her that there was still good in her. Also get ready for emotional ride in act 3. Especially EP 7 is something remarkable.

[@MemesAreDreams]

When Vander went berserk it wasn’t because Viktor died, that was only a small part of it, the real reason why he went berserk is because doctor reveck (singed) was able to inject the serum he made into Vander, causing him to go berserk.

[@oakensiren4423]

SPOILERS Nah, he didn't, he actually injects it later on and we do see the effects

[@demopem]

I think you're right about Vander, Silco and Felicia. They are close friends, a "found family". There's nothing indicating anything else. (And you would expect at least some similarity between Vander and Silco if they were actual brothers, but they couldn't really look more different.)

[@Hawkido]

Zaun is not really conducive to nuclear families. Without found-families in Zaun, there wouldn't be many families at all.

[@ChaosHippo]

I'm both excited and saddened for you who is the editor as well as the viewer. The writers for Riot games/league of legends do not shy away from death, just take heed for if and when they release more of such masterpieces as Arcane in the future... not that it'll stop us from bawling our eyes out in the end.

[@analuizahenriques1703]

I laughed so hard at "Viktor, that's murder! No, wait. Jayce, that's murder!". I love how genuine you are with your reactions 🥰

[@SpiffingTiff]

I cried sooooo much when he said Powder 🥹

[@jeremiehalsey1406]

These 3 episodes was my crybaby episodes I havnt shed a tear for a tv show since the walking dead

[@its_just_elena]

the reaction to isha at the end is soooo real. i love these reactions sm !!!

[@alexisprojects]

What a freaking dope tattoo. "be kind" Fun watch, can't wait for the last arc!

[@sainteagle4426]

this show is written only to service Jinx and her fans, so many characters under-appreciated

[@AdmiralZhou]

This show is so good. I’ve never cried so much watching anything 😭 can’t wait for the act 3 reaction! One thing I saw someone point out about the hexgate mesh room: the first time Jayce, Ekko, and Heimerdinger were in there they showed just how cold that room is. Every time they talked you could see their breath in the air. And again in ep5, every time Jayce speaks and breathes you can see his breath. But when Salo talked..there’s nothing 🤔

[@Pawper27]

Lol, that voice note at the end is exactly how I feel about the end of Red Dead Redemption 2. Arthur was just a digital outlaw but sometimes it still stings a little, and it's been 6 years

[@xiiMaYHeMx]

that ending to this video is arcane lol shit rips your soul out

[@DrewB2400]

I don't know how you managed to watch an episode 6 when the show clearly ended after the hug in episode 5. Gotta love a happy ending :)

[@xXAkirhaXx]

Talk to your therapist by all means, but nothing is wrong with you for feeling intense emotion for any of this. I cried like a fucking baby when Vander hugged Vi and Jinx. Not like sniffles and eyes welling up. Like tears, stuffed nose, snot running, balled. This show hits hard.

[@Hawkido]

Silco styled little Jinx's bangs. Look at him in the bar.

[@geenahreads]

Don’t do this to me

[@SleepySloth2705]

12:19 Am I crazy, or does Isha yell "mama"?

[@mercilessidioms]

I hear it too, not quite buried in the mix. Easier to catch with good headphones or earbuds.

[@tlh2016]

Quality content as always!

[@tlh2016]

And Honestly, missing out one or two things is the beauty of what makes watching favorite show over and over so enjoyable. Esp since you have to edit too.

[@shamelessfartman89]

Everyone should find Isha in their lives.

[@davidpascuallopez8103]

I love your reaction I was one week feeling 😢 after finishing the act 2 I can’t wait for next week reaction

[@M.R._BlueVO]

Great video ❤️ This show tends to use siblings as one of the fastest ways to tug at everyone's heartstrings💔. Vi & Jinx + Mel & Kino are the prime examples. Also, I know you may hate him now, but believe me when I say that Jayce had really good reasons to kill Viktor. Plus if you wanna blame someone for Vander going berserk, blame Singed (the doctor).

[@roryasrorri701]

2:28 Ooooh, your face 😂😂😂 How did you keep yoir jaw from dropping at the sight of that

[@geenahreads]

Even with glasses I’m blind sometimes. So in my head I told myself that her hand did not go where I thought it did 😂

[@llllllllllllllllllllllllll8407]

Love this act

[@pinkygunslingy]

ive been waiting! i think the dynamic between silco and vander is "brothers in arms" like comrades under a shared cause. they're not biological brothers! (i too was emotional throughout the entire 3 episodes lol, and emotional watching u watch them)

[@jbrand37ify]

Isha became Powder

[@suwit_kartoffel]

Been waiting for this!!! Personally act 2 was the best!

[@juswa_ss]

[@geenahreads]

🤍

[@Orwulf]

People going after you for missing stuff is wild to me. Not only do you tend to catch a fair amount, but when you do miss stuff, you often make it into a little joke in the edit, which is imo a really fun little way to acknowledge it before people need to comment about it and move on. But yea, I mean every reactor is going to miss stuff sometimes, especially in a show like Arcane with so much subtle writing and hints. I certainly missed a lot in my initial watch lol

[@Orwulf]

Also as a sidenote, I love that you actually had no idea about the Vander thing. It was a strong theory that blew up after season 1 (partially based on League knowledge) so I think all the other reactors that I've seen get this far already knew about the theory going in, but since you only watched the show recently, you didn't have those years of being in the community to have it spoiled, and so get a more pure and genuine reaction :D

[@chowi3229]

isha dying is when I cried too man :(( its so sadddddd

I’m with ya on the Silco Jinx thing. 😉 But I have a 30x40 canvas of Jinx from the end of S1 in the ManCave. 🤷‍♂️

Arcane ended on episode 5

[@flyboymike111357]

In some lesser known European mythologies if someone who loves and trusts a werewolf completely calls out their name it's will snap them out of it. I don't know of the show runners knew that. But it's a beautiful detail.

Did not care for Isha. Same as Peter did not care for the godfather.

[@xXAkirhaXx]

Oh so you;re going to just flat out die in episode 6 got it.

[@aleksei1002]

to be honest isha's death was incredibly stupid. didn't cause any emotions except facepalm. very low on my list of the best scenes of the Arcane. completely inappropriate deliberately written unnecessary death. of course, it was necessary to come so close to him for the shot. of course, it was necessary to show happy scenes of their life (like 5 days or something like that lol). bro, its so simple and stupid. open your eyes. when this character appeared on screen for the first time, I immediately predicted all this shit and understood why she was added and that she would die soon. but I didn't think it was so foolishly

[@filippoye609]

I looks to me it caused you a lot of emotions 😂
