“Don’t cry.. you’re perfect” -cries even more-

The fact that people crying over a villain death is just show how perfect Riot make a silco as a villain, he is a perfect example on how you make a villain in a story, he's terrifying, evil but at the same time you can see why he is who he is and sympathize for him, in another story silco could be a hero.

If jinx had a penny for every adoptive father of hers that she kills, she'd have 2 pennies which is not a lot but it's weird how it happened twice.

"Where should I sit?" "Therapy." I almost fucking choked.

Jinx: "Where should i sit?" Lola: "Therapy" god, i know whole scene isn't funny at all but that just killed me. P.S. Thanks for your reaction, that was really amazing show and we all got bunch of emotions from this!!

From “get the f*ck away from her” to sobbing at his death, a testament in good writing

This show has a way of defying almost every expectation the audience has to, in turns, surprise us and devastate us depending on the episode. One of the best shows I've seen in years.

Silcos monolog to Vander statue is one of the best scenes in the entire show. It's flawless.

Episode 3 is where you realize you like this show. Episode 6 is where you realize you are in love with this show. Episode 9 is where you realize you need more of this show.

22:08 "Don't cry..." Lola and Milena: (positively bawling)

I love that Silco always treats Jinx like normal. Always just talks to her calmly and respectfully in even tones, not reacting to her antics or mood swings like they are weird, just trusting that Jinx is smart and capable underneath it all. From the scenes in his office where she is swaying to and fro, jumping around the room, making random comments, he just keeps up his conversation. Contrast it to every other interaction Jinx has where people are super uneasy around her, or talk down to her. He puts his trust in her, shows her that he needs her. Even here, he was shooting at Vi to stop her from triggering Jinx's PTSD, and knew she was completely overwhelmed, and didn't sit there blaming her at all for reacting to protect her sister, he just tries to assuage her guilt and sadness. Like you said, she has always wanted someone to accept and love her for who she was, and Silco really did.

Silco has "Freedom at any cost" mentality even if it means death of many innocent people and Vander had "Peace at any cost" mentality, even while the topside was exploiting and poisoning them. But in his last moments, when he had to protect his daughter, Vander gave up on his pacifist principles and was ready to smash some skulls, the same way Silco gave up on his principles when he had to give up his daughter, and independence of Zoan was suddenly no longer a priority. "Ohh it all makes sense now brother

31:46 YES! Finally a reactor that caught the fact that Vi making Jinx remember her family is hurting her

Jinx giving the weapon a shark design because of Silco's admiration for sea monsters is such a cool detail.

The ending song sums of the show perfectly.... "What could have been..."

When Vi is mentioning Milo Clagor Vander, she doesn’t know how much they haunt Jinx in her memories, but Silco does.. he goes berserk because he sees Jinx is suffering, like trying to stop Vi hurting Jinx.

It's so amazing how you instantly knew Silco wasn't gonna give her up, a lot of other reactors doubted Silco until the very end. But if you follow their relationship throughout the show it's very clear he'd never give her up

Lola: "My best character is Jinx" Milena: "My best character is Jinx too" Lola: "Why do we always pick the ones that need the most therapy?" I'm dead.

I remember I read a comment about that final scene that was amazing Powder protected Vi by killing Silco. Jinx avenged Silco by killing Powder.

Love how when Jinx tells Vi to kill Caitlyn. She says "make her go away". This is a refrence to when they where younger and played the game where they would come up with monsters that would fight each other. In the end of the game Vi would allways make a to scary monster and Powder would start crying. So Vi had to chase her own monster away. In Jinxs eyes Caitlyn is a monster (thats why in episode 7 she sees her with devil horns and a evil grin). So when she says "Make her go away please" It really hits very close to home for Vi. Btw love the reaction series. Will miss this weekly video. Guess we will be back when season 2 arrives. If you want to see more of arcane the season 2 announcment have been released on KZfaq and there is a music video for the song Enemy with scenes that wasnt in the show. Have a good one!

Instead of his usual "Jinx is perfect" in his final moments he tells her "You're perfect" Letting her know that she's perfect whether she chooses to be Jinx or Powder. Silco is the best kind of villain, absolutely evil and causes innocents to die but at the same time has depth, relatability, and redeeming qualities.

One thing that Silco was right about was how Vi never really grasped who Powder became and how deep her scars were as she became Jinx. Instead of taking a step back to look, she pushed forward and dug at her wounds. And because of that, Vi didn’t consider or even notice how bringing up those names was sending her sister into a spiral

The way both bawled with Silco's Death just shows how well written he is.

One interpretation of when vi said "Picture milo, clagger....." and the voices started appearing in jinxes head. Jinx revealed that, she hears all the voices, not only the 2 boys but vi and vander as well, its her trauma Vi was creating monsters for powder and it got too scary for her and vi didnt even realise it. EXACLTY Like the game they played as a baby. Only now it was silco trying to chase them away by stopping her and shooting her in the head

"We will show them all"... as she fires the rocket... non stop chills!

Rip silco what a great character

Silco was talking to all of us when he said dont cry youre perfect.

I'm here for the ugly-crying. By "here", I mean I'm a middle aged dad who's seen this 20 times and I'm ugly-crying right along with you.

I loved that Silco in his final moments even after getting shot by Jinx he didn’t feel betrayed or hatred for her at all. But instead he says” Don’t cry, your perfect” that just made me start tearing up.

The tea party scene is one of the best I've seen in a long time.

When they get you to cry for the bad guy… that’s how you know it’s an amazing show 😪

"I'm confident no-one dies here" :S

"You never left. I always heard you. Shadows in the streets, prickles on the back of my neck. Your voice. Pushing me. Picking me up, when all the colors were black."

when silco is sitting at vanders fountain so many people dont understand the true amount of character development he realized in that moment that he had become vander himself

I'm glad you two felt the the same pain when Silco died . He was an imperfect man who did terrible things to achieve a noble cause. Despite all of this, he was overal a good father

The worst is that she really is a Jinx. Just as the council was about to vote for peace, she literally NUKES them and ruins an otherwise good situation. She is a Jinx and she can't help it. She is a victim of circumstance. She says it in episode 3 when she was Powder, "I only wanted to help."

The way so many reactors have had a breakdown over Silco's death, the character we were all cheering to die by the end of Act I, just shows how amazing the character arcs are in this show. So many shows have 2-dimensional villains, but not Arcane. Everyone is very human, capable of growth, mistakes, and even a degree of compassion. It's such a pleasure not to be insulted by a show. Arcane has raised the hell out of the bar, and I hope other shows take notes and bring their game up.

Your reactions to this show have been amazing, waiting for S2.

vi: why did you do that? jinx: because i was born into this world vi: what? jinx: what?

The scream Jinx gives after "I support Counselor Talis' proposal for peace..." So viseral. Gutteral. Rarely does and english VA go THAT hard

Silco: "don't cry" The audience: and then I didn't!

I love how jinx's ultimate is a sea creature, only right cuz silco was known for loving sea creatures I'm pretty sure

jinx : where should i sit lola : in therapy im dead 💀 18:43

I swear Lola has the best one liners, she really said jinx should sit in therapy lmaooo. She aint wrong tho.

- "Не плачь, ты прекрасна" Это фраза просто заставила меня плакать. Силко не очень хороший человек, но вот отец он отличный.

Jayce gave Silco everything he wanted, he only had to give up everything he needed.

I'm glad you guys reacted to Arcane and enjoyed it overall (despite all the suffering that you went through. Yeah, sorry about that). As for the episode, it is one of the best closures we could have had knowing that everything ends so abruptly and yet they managed to give importance to all the characters (some more than others) but it feels like a satisfying ending to introduce season 2. Long-ass comment ahead. One of the things that I enjoyed the most was that Arcane is full of parallels between a lot of characters, messages and subtextual elements that I'd like to highlight, but this comment would be biblical in length, so the most meaningful part for me was just before the whole rocket scene, exactly when Jinx sits on the chair. That image has a brutal narrative weight that defines Jinx's character as such, as what she is and how that cannot change. There are only four spoken lines, but the blocking, the shots, the cuts, Sting's song coming in slowly, make this one of my favorite sequences from Arcane. It is not only about Jinx accepting herself as she is because Silco motivated her to do so, but also literally reaffirming her identity as a jinx, since once again because of her, a part of her family dies and everything leads to an explosion that interrupts an imminent peace. That's something she will have to learn how to live with and maybe that's why she left Vi, because she brings "bad luck" and may fear that her sister ends up like Vander, Silco and the others but also maybe Jinx can't fully accept Vi despite yearning for her all those years they were separated. A big part of the series of the series was about Vi trying to find the sister she left behind, only to be blinded by that guilt when she abandoned her and didn't realize that in the present that Powder no longer exists, and yet Vi ( with a little selfishness) fights to get her back even if it hurts her younger sister reminding her trauma. And what I find particularly tragic is how they diverted attention to make believe that everything was about Vi trying to find and maybe accept Jinx as she is now, however, Jinx's perspective was never explored in depth trying to accept Vi as she is now, because in fact, as Jinx herself says, she changed too. That was a subtle turn of events that makes their relationship even more complicated. In the end Jinx made her decision. This was an episode about taking decisions, about letting go things like abandoning the ambition of saving oneself for the greater good (Viktor and the hexcore), wanting peace after experiencing the horrors of war (Jayce), rejecting our origins for a better future (Mel), giving up a lifelong dream for a loved one (Silco) and accepting oneself for who we are with all the bad that it implies (Jinx). I'm pleasantly surprised that Arcane was better than it should have been and it wasn't just a series with pretty visuals and catchy music but it had so much more to offer emotionally. I'm pretty sure season 2 won't dissapoint since we may have some hints of what's gonna happen because of the game's lore. Ladies, it was a pleasure to have rewatched this series with you.

There's only one word that describes each episode and the season as a whole:. Masterpiece.

In Silco’s confession to Vander 12:08, the background score is titled “is there anything so *endearing* as a daughter?” Jinx - and the audience - hear it as “undoing”. Jinx sets out on the path that leads to Silco’s death from a misunderstanding. Great reaction series, I enjoyed every episode with you, as you truly found the humanity in every character.

Silco is the best villain we have seen in a long time. And I'm really surprised its from League of Legends, cause this character does not exist in the games, yet he gave so much complexity depth in the Vi-Jinx duo.

Definitely a top 10 show after they made silco's death emotional. Never thought it'd hit but every scene with him up until the end was significant the va did an incredible job

When the villain's death makes you cry, you know is a good serie/movie

21:00 love you Lola, you are the first person that i see that actually cares for jinx and see that those words of Vi are hurting her.

Silco is far from being a good father, but he was certainly the one Jinx needed. He raised her as if she were his daughter and was willing to let go of his dream as long as she was safe.

Every time I a reaction to Silco's final words I just feel like there is someone in the background screaming "EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!"

I was going to leave this big long comment explaining the intricacies of Silco, how his love for Jinx changed him and all that, but I dont even have to. You both got it spot on. You completely understood that whole complex situation. I am genuinely impressed because I have watched a LOT of Reactors watch this show and no one has broken it down so concisely or understood it nearly as well.

"The Monster You Created" has a dual meaning here that's straight up brilliant. Its obviously Jinx; being a product of what Vi and Silco did to make her who she is. But it's also the Undercity being what Piltover created. I absolutely love the tragedy of the council finally deciding to do the right thing, but it coming far too late. I also recommend listening to the full version of that song. Its even more emotional and amazing.

Have there ever been such tears shed for the death of a villain? Top to bottom, start to finish, there has never been an animated series like this.

"When all the colors were black..." That flash of Caitlyn's face @18:14, Vi's fear that it could be her so great it was real for a split second... just genius.

"Is there anything so undoing as a daughter?" - Silco -

Truly one of the best ending episodes of all the shows I ever watched. The music, the visuals, Silco's final words and "what could have been" in the end. My God

This show is 11/10 on everything really.. Characters development, characters presentation, scenography, animations.., writing, i cannot . everything that i can't find something bad about Arcane. And if you played League of legends.. this hits really hard, jinx, Vi.. are perfect. I don't think jinx or vi will ever die ( I hope..), they are now part of the world xD. we need to complete the story arc of .. I do not want to spoiler xd

Powder is, from the first episode to the last, a jinx. She accidentally killed Vander, her foster father, to protect her big sister, her ultimate obsession, and she unintentionally killed Silco, her second foster father, to protect her big sister, AGAIN. Which is why believes she can't be with Vi, imo, in addition to feeling some resentment towards her.

I think this is one of the best reactions I have seen from Arcane ever, and I've seen plenty.

Also Silco telling Jinx "you're perfect" was validation to her. Jinx killed him yet showed nothing but love in his dying breath. That right there is what set Jinx to do what she did sine imo Vi didn't show that same love to her when the moment was at it's toughest.

I know you'll never see this but I've watched dozens of reactions to the arcane final now and yours is still the most emotionally satisfying. Especially when Silco dies.

This is such an important detail that I think a lot of reactors missed and I'm really glad you realized it: the past is incredibly haunting and tormenting for Jinx. And Silco was going to shoot Vi because Vi kept bringing it up and he knew that it was hurting Jinx very badly.

Yall remember when they said "Stay away from her" in episode 3? And now here we are, crying over his death bc we know what he meant to Powder. And for the fact he accepted and validated Jinx. Yeah. I still cry everytime I watch that scene

i was sobbing so hard too when silco died and he said jinx is perfect. i liked silco and i knew he truly did love jinx and would never give her up for anything it’s so sad :( anyways loved ur guys reactions for all the episodes

I think one of my favorite things that Arcane did was how they handled their "climax" finale. I feel like a lot of movies and shows force the climax to be this big spectacle fight scene to try to outdo everything they've shown up until that point, but instead Arcane gives us their characters sitting at a dinner table. And yet the result is so intense that it holds every ounce of your attention until the credits roll. The climax lies entirely within the characters and their emotions. M A S T E R P I E C E.

Super small detail that I love in this episode: during the council room scene Jayce gave up his seat for Victor to sit down in. He chooses to stand _rather_ then use the other vacant seat in the room, the seat that Heimerdinger has left behind. Without a word the show is able to convey Jayce’s thoughtfulness towards his friend AND his respect for his past mentor. Masterful.

This ending is soo good Vi failing Jinx’s questions. The revealing of fishbones with the red moon and her using her ultimate super mega death rocket. I was screaming while crying. I can’t wait for season 2!

Genuine reactors are so rare on KZfaq, but you girls are some of the best!

I mean, silco was kinda right when he said Vi couldn't accept who Jinx was. She sits there causing her agony, triggering her and invoking those demons that torment her, and Jinx was *begging* her to stop. Literally curling up in a ball, pitifully pleading for her sister to stop making more monsters appear. And Vi saw that and just kept on going, kept saying more names even as she watched how it hurt Jinx, she was dead set on the thought that she was saying good things to bring 'Powder' back. She did not accept who Jinx was, and was literally torturing her sister, actively ignoring her pleas. Meanwhile Silco tells Vi to shut up. He tells Jinx not to listen. He was instantly vindicated, what he said was coming to pass right in front of his eyes, Vi betraying Jinx once again, and so he finally pulled the gun on her to protect his daughter, to stop Vi from hurting Jinx any further.

Lola's reaction to when Jinx pointed the gun was me. I was like "there is no way".

So basically Vi just stole Jayce's gauntlets. She barges in unannounced, sees them there, takes them without even asking permission, then tests them in battle, and then refuses to give them back.

Girls, This is one of the best reactions to the last episode and mirrors my reaction to Silco's death.

ARCANE IS A FUCKING MASTERPIECE! NO WONDER WHY IT SURPASSED SQUID GAME BUT STILL ARCANE IS A TOP NOTCHer

I have to say, one of the reasons I truly love this channel is that by far you two are the best when it comes to character empathy and emotional intelligence. And this goes for all the shows you react to. You both have a unique way of truly connecting with the characters in a deep meaningful way. And the emotional maturity with which you consider the greater picture of each character's mind and motives is impressive. Bravo ladies for always keeping us engaged and entertained.

Vi : "It's Okay" "... What the fuck is ok? what is ok? " 🤷‍♀🤷‍♀ "no" best part lmao

Thank you so much for all your reactions, I love how you two are both really insightful and yet still really empathic, a rare combo found in people. I hope you two are doing alright with all that's going on in your country right now. Stay Awesome. And no matter what happens, don't cry. You're perfect.

22:40 literally my reaction to that line

It's been a joy to watch you girls react to this series. I don't really watch react channels but, I binged Arcane in one night, It hit me so deep emotionally. I had to watch you react to it so I could feel the emotions again through the 2 of you. Im a guy in my early 30's but, i cried 3 times watching this show. Thank you for making these videos

thank you so much for reacting to the show! the moment i first saw it i was sure you'd absolutely love it despite or (judging from your track record) maybe because of the painful, sad and tragic scenes it has. It's definitely become one of my all time favourite shows and there is so much to gain from re-watching. Fortiche and Riot did an outstanding job at creating this masterpiece. Afaik they're aiming for a 2023 release and i wouldn't be surprised if its around the same time again, probably later rather than earlier. It's definitely gonna be tough following up a show that's this good but the writers and animators have my trust to make it great. Btw. the 6 years production time that gets thrown around is mostly not actual production. They started the project 6 years ago working on a pilot episode, but it took a lot of time to pitch the show and get the funding while the writers who hadn't written any show before were trained and researched how to pull that off, which might be a reason why it feels so fresh despite the topics not being all that groundbreaking. The execution is just perfect and they didn't take any noticeable shortcuts. The actual production time was more like 3 years also impacted by the pandemic and they had to figure out a lot of pre-production stuff first, like artstyle, characters, transforming the scattered and inconsistent LoL lore into a coherent story

So... that was an experience. It was great watching your reactions. I remember how happy I was that S2 of Arcane was announced to be entering in production a couple of days after the final episode, because we didn't know about S2.

Who else just watched Arcane so many times that u don’t even need the actual undissolved videos to understand what’s happening.

im really glad to have found you guys through this series reaction, i watched so many and your reactions to arcane are my favorite of all. you guys are so emotionally intelligent and insightful, i was delighted about how many things you picked up and analyzed right off the bat. cant wait to check your other stuff out, and ill be a loyal subscriber from now on

Such a fantastic reaction and discussion at the end! I agree with everything you said in your commentary, you guys are the best!

This show came out of left field and became one of my all-time favorites. Poor Jinx. I wept at the ending. Season 2 coming in 2023!

That is incredible writing and story telling when you cry for the villain in the story.

So my computer wallpapers cycle through a variety of screenshots from Arcane every so often, and the moment when your reaction video came to the moment that Jinx sat in the Jinx chair, my left screen wallpaper changed to that exact scene, like almost at the exact same time . . . weird. Great reaction series by the way! Loved watching your journey through this amazing show!

Hate that this journey is over but I have been waiting for this reaction. Buckle up, we're going bye-bye. "Don't cry, you're perfect" ALSO: Jinx's Mad Tea Party was the only way to end this thing. Brilliant.

Discovered you girls with Breaking Bad reactions, i instantly felt you were the real deal. This was another great journey spent with two persons which appreciate good pieces of media. I’m worldwide #1 Lola stan.

That's a very good observation, Silco is literally the only one who accepted Jinx for who she was and loved her unconditionally.

Most pure reactions I’ve seen out of all the Arcane reactors! Absolutely love your channel! You have a new fan with me .. I subscribed straight away

I just found this show and I'm in love with it. Just great storytelling

Jinx does not need Therapy she is perfect as is 😍

I think what distracts a bit from the tragedy of Arcane is the sheer artistic mastery of it. I'm constantly so enamoured by this series and how it presents its characters so effectively that it's difficult to just be sad. Like. I cried a lot and I was distraught at the season finale, but I'm incredibly grateful at having had the opportunity to experience this series.

so happy you guys got to react to this series!! cant wait for season 2 :,)

only a good show can make you cry for the villain who you wished death upon so many times :( Powder killed Silco and Jinx avenged him minutes later... amazing writing
