Great video, do more arcane characters please
From here on out nobody will be calling Jinx a knockoff Harley Quinn any longer.
its doesint matter why a person becomes a monster, all that matters then is that they die as fast as possible for everyones sake… i would want the same for myself if i lost control.
I never played LoL, so my interest in the series was minimal. I'm still not interested in the gameplay since it's not my style, but this show was amazing.
I also don't think there's anything wrong with someone if they find they connect to Jinx's story. Many people, myself included, can relate to her isolation and the negative thoughts eating away at her. Recognizing that and choosing how to react is what makes difference. Jinx made the wrong choices, whether she wanted to or wasn't given the chance to make it.
I get it. This hits a little too close to home for me as well.
As I was watching the series I fully expected Silco to die by the end and I expected it to be incredibly cathartic when it happened. Holy shit was I wrong. That scene had me bawling. The fact that they were able to write that in such a way that I was sad to see that monster go was masterful and it was absolutely heartbreaking.
2:40 you forgot to mention she was going to use an explosive akin to a frag grenade, since it was full of nails. It failed, but she was going to use it. 11:13 I don't think it was a complete accident, He was about to shoot VI, I think Jinx instinctively protected her without thinking, and thus has another reason in her crazy mind to blame her.
Also, no. She is not gonna be ok, I don't think she is going to redeem herself in any way shape or form, and that is ok for the series. Sometimes we do go too far, sometimes people get completely lost.
I believe Silco really did love jinx and tried his best to raise her the way he knows how. He helped her get stronger and accept herself, even though we know it's unhealthy and her actions are all morally wrong. But she did feel his love and she did get stronger in her own way and she eventually accepted herself, flaws and all. It's all twisted but this was how they coped with their traumas.
shit i said i was not going to cry again lol
My girlfriend deals with CPTSD, anxiety, and trauma, and she just saw herself in Jinx and her incredible portrayal of mental health. Arcane's Jinx is truly a masterclass character.
Who would`ve thought that both the Harley Quinn and the Victor Doom wannabes are going to be this well developed?
I don't think it's right to feel guilty about getting personal on video. If it's relevant to the subject matterr and you do it the right way, there's nothing wrong with it. I'm the kind of person that really likes analysis of other people I find interesting and learning why they're the way they are. I really appreciated getting some more insight into you 🙂
Amazing deconstruction of Jinx! Can't wait for your next one!
Man… this series efed me up hard. Left me feeling like if circumstances were right I'd have ended up like Jinx and that terrifies me. Doesn't help that Vi and my brother are more than a little similar
Yea I feel ya, something in this whole thing just resonates to damn much its scary. Good job on the video.
(:
uhhh…. man are you allright? do you need companionship? 😀
Next time? Check yaself befo' ya break yaself.
Good video, once again.
This was by far my favorite episode that you've done. Jinx was a character that I could never understand why I felt I was able to relate to, until your post analysis. Those types of thoughts are literal demons, and seeing it depicted in such a way on screen was an amazing experience.
Unfortunately it's not going to work out well for her, the show follow the Lore, though rewritten to modernize and expand on it but most things stay the same. Piltover will be devided Vi will side with them, well jinx will continue to degrade and become a super terrorist basicly.
How there is a 2ed session to introduce blitzcrank, Warwick and Zac. Also would be interesting to see Victor move to Zaun and become more metal, but being surprisingly nice.
Dispite the things silco did, you could tell he genuinely cared about the under city and was not just being evil for the sake of it, he himself had a very tragic past and I found my self just as conflicted as Jinx was after watching their interactions, Dispite that I new he was going to die, even if there's no way he could be in the picture if things were going to work out with vi.
But he genuinely loved jinx going out of his way constantly to protect her, even if it ment damaging his reputation, plans or burn bridges with his allies. He was an outstandingly written villain, along side jinx.
I really love your video end discutions, and it makes me sad that a lot of people just skip them. I love hearing opinions, analysis, and parallels to life experience. They are probably 60% of why I watch your videos.
This video was no exception. I didn’t get some of that context on Jinx’s breakdowns. And I am very glad to have heard your reading on the character.
Jinx, fucking relatable.
This was a great look into Jinx that didn’t demonize her or her issues, but also didn’t lighten the troubles she caused. I think this and the Vi episodes were a lot of fun and I agree in being eager to see Season 2 and any other characters from the series get fleshed out
Dude, that last comments hit the right spot in me, I feel u N I'm sorry.
Will you do a dnd Alignment for murder drones? Wanna know what you think about it.
