What Your Favorite Arcane Character Says About YOU

[@weaselinplatformsatndrenchcoat]

Not having 'daddy issues' as a reason for vander and silico is criminal. Especially for vander.

Secret third reason Vi is my fave: i’m gay

[@arshiyak952]

I WAS WAITING FOR HIM TO SAY THAT

[@entgrove]

This was in the script but I deleted it because people are so sensitive today. Look at the comments lolll with this I would have probably been reported

[@F_NerdShark]

Me too vro 😔🤚

[@NoNameTbh4]

My reason exactly

[@FriskKimura]

Secret reason why Viktor is my favourite: I’m also gay

[@doornumb]

Nah, Viktor's my favorite but i definitely do not f with his cult. What I like about him is tha he's a Piltover scientist who originally came from Zaun. His personality reflects that as he's the one who encouraged Jayce to do crime and risk their life to commit to his dream. He also has that funny in him. Everything i loved about Viktor mostly stemmed from Arc 1 and no matter how many times he's changed, I still him as Viktor from Arc 1. The more change he undergoes the more invested i am to see where ends up.

[@entgrove]

And I did not expect this ending 👀

[@alsiredwood5642]

100%. I find Viktor to be one of if not the most interesting character of them all. A very unique set of circumstances that led him to where he is. How he constantly pushes against his disability, the prejudice, his ambition strong as ever. And while I enjoy the totally tragic and beautiful way his character went by the end, I think early S1 Viktor will always have a special place in my heart, if nothing else than A) he was healthier, happier, and generally untraumatised, and B) the fantasy that him and Jayce continued in simple studies, and never suffered the way they did has me in a death grip. Never did like seeing good people suffer.

[@maem7462]

I also love Viktor. I like how his intention with the cult was to have a place of peace where there were no weapons. It was still a bit weird how things went down and that he could control his followers. That could’ve lead to something very bad. I also wasn’t a fan of his next step of glorious evolution where they turned into creepy robot things. I was also very interested to see where his arc was going to go

[@NOOBTRON-xe3on]

dude im the same with powder/ jinx i think it hits so hard cause when i see jinx i see this kid thats powder it really imersies you so hard its crazy.

[@wodanderave4382]

@@slm20408 Ekko is not an antihero, Vi is, Cait is, Viktor is, Jayce is. They are characters with nobel, altruistic and or good intentions who use the wrong methods and or fail in their intents. Ekko always tried to do the right thing, and succeeded most of the time. The only time he tried to kill someone, he realized he shouldnt. Man he even gave up his perfect world to save his friends and his people. It only hurted himself.

[@elrilmoonweaver4723]

Sevika here. Sure I'm a big woman, but what draws me to her as a character is her honesty and her sense of loyalty, which are also my own core values.

[@jesper9578]

Jinx is my favorite character but I’m not at all a cosplayer. I just suffer from severe mental health issues so I love what they did with her character as it’s actually quite relatable.

[@NOOBTRON-xe3on]

yeah strait up somone on the writing team has to know or have some crazy research, like strait up been through shit, the amount of stuff jinx says is on point with what ive said and felt over the last few years lol. also i think its helped me deal with shit cause there is this huge meme about like, jinx from arcane batchest, and i literaly have started to laugh now whenever i hear voices and get happy cause i feel like jinx, ive told people its like when you where stormtrooper armour and you fel like, wow its a stormtrooper in real life and you get all happy, or playin a game where your a dude sayin rebel scum and you roleplay with friends kinda same thing, so its made that dread and like sadness i asociate with hearing things kinda turn into a positive funny thing lol.

[@kaziive]

real i love her bc i kin her

[@chickensalad3535]

Me too.

[@tanyamue8752]

SAME. I'm an older sister who has never cosplayed in her life. I have CPTSD. Jinx randomly firing at people is what it feels like when I'm triggered. I don't get hallucinations, but intrusive images and internal voices and flashbacks. I relate to flipping between wanting to destroy the world that made you like this or stood by watching and wanting to destroy yourself. She's the best representation of trauma I've ever seen in any fictional character, by far. My second favorite is Ekko, because in a way I feel like him and Jinx are two sides of the same coin and I still have both sides. I relate to his struggle of when to give up on someone and when to try to save them and a bunch of other things about his character (the tree imagery, the paintings, the time theme).

[@M_Feitosa7]

I like Jinx because I've always been the younger one

[@elizabethray8629]

As someone who loves Jinx and Ekko equally, I think it comes from being a perfectionist who never felt like they were doing anything right and they’re two sides of the same coin. Jinx is really resonate for people who are trying really hard and may fail a lot, but Ekko was able to make a big impact with little resource

[@entgrove]

Dam this comment hit

[@YashimaTameyoshi]

Did you mean Ekko ?

[@Weston_456]

Wild how much I relate to this, I totally agree

[@alexelion7084]

This! I think it's a bit different to me but still similar. I love Ekko because in some ways he is everything I'm not but want to be, practical, down to earth and achieving his goals and as an idealist I love how he is the only character who in this whole mess isn't morally gray one bit. I love Jinx because I sympathize with her pain, trying to do good and failing repeatedly, which in some ways I relate to a lot. Now that I'm writing this I'm realizing this is probably exactly what you described, I just don't really see myself as a perfectionist because I don't believe in the concept of perfectionism, but I probably still am one. But I think this duality of these characters is one of the big reasons why people ship these two, me included

[@Durpanny]

Idk when has Ekko been wrong in this show? While jayce, Viktor, and Jinx become tragic heroes. Ekko appears to be the best example in Arcane as a traditional hero. Mel and maybe Vi are the others who I could see in that category. But most are not

[@weeksauce11]

Viktor is by far my favorite character and my Dad’s favorite character is Vander. I’d say pretty accurate 👍

[@BimmerWon]

I like Jinx because: She designs and builds gadgets to be useful, I design and build tooling to be useful. She is isolated from people with no friends, I’m isolated from people with no friends. She is in constant mental pain, I am in constant mental and physical pain. She gets in potentially lethal fights with her sister, I use to get in potentially lethal fights with my brother. She has suicidal tendencies and is reckless, I have suicidal tendencies and am reckless. She has mental illness and feels like she is going crazy, I have mental illness and feel like I’m going crazy. Overall just a photogenic and relatable character.

[@hooni7099]

Cait fan here. I like women with guns. And Ekko is probably the most perfect boy in the entire show, I can't see how he would be bad in any way, shape or form.

[@_Linda_K]

He gave up powder. That was one of the reasons she became Jinx and it all started because everyone gave up on her, including him. In the parallel universe, he saw that no one had given up on Powder, no one blamed her for Vi's death, and she didn't become Jinx there.

Caitlyn, Vi, and Mel are also common picks for us in the gay community. Mel for the *Art,* Vi for the butch badasses, and Caitlyn for the ones who had to be tough but want someone to treat them gently. Also, as someone who is a dual fan of Viktor and Ekko, I adore those born with unfair advantages who rise higher than anyone could have ever predicted. They're leaders, which I aspire to be~ (Though perhaps minus the cult. XD Also Viktor and Jayce definitely are in love and their love language is *science.* I also got a theory Viktor is the common pick for Asexuals but I am the current only sample size. XD )
