The little flashes of vi noticing jinx's insanity is so well placed and foreshadowing

Jinx's Screaming "Noo" at the end is so heartbreaking. When she realizes she lost Vi again...

The voice actress for Jinx really did a great job especially in this episode, she was just so on point with Jinx's insanity

The fact that they made Jinx get her leg cut just so she knows it wasn't an hallucination is such a nice detail.

If I had a dollar for every time Vi was knocked out and kidnapped, causing jinx to have an absolute mental breakdown, I’d have 2 dollars. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

How jinx dodged and set the grenade at 1:09 is so dope

Jinx's psychotic episodes seem to enhance her perception and reflexes in combat. But in her everyday life she seems to have lost time to them. Its interesting to say the least

Notice how jinx doesn't shoot when they had her sister instead runs toward them, a simple but lovely detail.

it’s really cool how her dodging that attack kinda connects to her passive from the actual game, like how she gets increased movement/reflex speed

Jinx has some insane reflexes and senses. Maybe she sees everything in bullet time because of excessive adredaline? She dodges attacks she doesn't see, hear the firelights approaching well before anyone else, shoot projectiles midair, and even does extremely precise movements with gret speed while evading attacks.

1:38 I love the owlish movement of her head when she notices the sphere. It's very endearing and telling of her personality in just 2 seconds. These little details make this show !

Bruh I see Jinx so much different after arcane. Watching her crazy and with pink eyes and finally realizing why she is crazy and what hides behind hits me. Especially with this music lyrics. Jinx story is so epic, sad, and beautiful at the same time. Ofc I feel bad for her, but there is a tragic beauty in how she went mad, if you get me

I love how Vi gets to see a glimpse of just who Powder has become and you can tell that it scares her, that she is now a capable and deadly fighter with no remorse in her actions as she ruthlessly beats these people and you can just see that realization in her eyes seeing the smile on Jinx's face.

The details 1:26 HERE. RIGHT FUCKING HERE. When Jinx is blasting away with her minigun (Pow-Pow), the shots eventually get close to shooting us (the camera), giving us the instinctual "woah, I almost got shot" sort of feeling, and immediately afterwards Vi nearly gets shot too, and because of what just happened we can easily relate to her. It's a small detail, but sheeeeeesh.

I just love this chaotic moment 1:29 the way Violet realizes Powder is no longer the little PowPow, not only she became terrifyingly strong but her insanity developed too.. She needs help.

1:47 gotta be one of the sickest dodges ive ever seen

1:06 I think that moment really shows that jinx and ekko have been fighting for a long time now. She dodges the fireflights attacks perfectly and even manages to put a bomb on him.

It makes me sad for both Vi and Jinx because Vi just found her sister and just seeing how she fights and acts, Vi is heartbroken at what Silco has done to her. The way she said Powder just shows that she never wanted her sister to be this way and sees what has happened since Jinx was by herself all these years.

1:28 many people missed or forgot about this short scene here. This is Vi's first time seeing what Jinx has become. Not only did Jinx almost shot at Vi by accident, she was absolutely enjoying the mass shooting. This is very different from Vi or most regular people's values - Vi was just fist fighting while self-defending here. This incident planted the first seed; then Ekko told Vi that Jinx is too far gone. The next time Vi and Jinx met, Jinx blew up the whole bridge, killing dozens of enforcers and almost killed her and Caitlyn. When Vi said that she ran away when the real monster showed up, she was talking about Jinx, not Silco. It also explains that why Vi was doing anything but actually searching for Jinx in the later episodes - she didn't really know how to face her.

I love how even the secondary firefly characters are smart, adaptive and powerful when fighting jinx. Finally veteran fighters who aren't killed in a couple seconds by main characters.

I like how when that firelight first disappears jinx looks shocked because she probably thought it was a hallucination. A normal person would just think they got away, but Jinx is not really in a good mental state. And then in the ending where everyone leaves and it’s as if they were never there, jinx is probably even more afraid that it was a hallucination. It’s a good thing she got that cut on her leg to tell her that it was all real.

I love the little detail of her lip quiver when she saw them carrying Vi aswell as the fact she charged at them instead of shooting so she wouldn’t hit her sister. Not to mention VI’s gradual realization of what Powders has become which was exactly what she wanted to keep her away from. The details in this show are phenomenal, it keeps me so emotionally invested. This show is 100% only the beginning of more indescribable things from Riot.

I absolutely adore the brief fight scene with Jinx and Vi at 0:46. Even after years of separation, trauma, and mistrust, they are still sisters and have each other’s backs without a moment’s hesitation. I especially love what this moment means for Vi. Unlike Jinx, she has no weapons or magic powers to help her in this fight, but none of that matters. Her little sisters needed her help and she wasn’t gonna leave her. Not again…

One thing i notice tho, when she's having these psychotic episodes her reflex is just up top like at 1:48, she's basically unstoppable.

I love that Vi never questioned her sister about hearing something but immediatly believed her and also started listening!

If we know something good, it's that she still love Vi. That also means there's hope

I dunno why, but the crows look so fucking cool

God it always gets me at the end how small Jinx is. She hunches over, her eyes wide and searching, the soft "Vi?" Before she cries out. She genuinely resembles a child in her mannerisms right there - Vi wasn't only a sister to Jinx but also a mother. I adore how this shows how that child comes out in Jinx naturally when Vi is around and how she reverts to a lost, scared girl when Vi is taken from her again.

I like the detail of Powder getting her leg cut, now she'll know all of this wasn't an hallucination.

I was so worried Vi was gonna have that “oh god you’re insane, never mind” moment with Jinx, which would be a really boring way to handle this relationship between siblings. But then she says “you can fire that thing at me but I’m only here for you” and it was so much more meaningful.

It's a relatively small detail, but I absolutely love how they animated that one Firelight girl with the bird mask. She never talks or even gets named in the show, but they took the time to give her a distinctive way of moving and fighting.

Damn, the voice acting is on point.

Two hour long show felt as if it vanished in a minute, and another week of waiting feels like an eternity...

0:48 - can we just appreciate Vi’s himbo energy that, as a bunch of dudes on flying machines with guns come out, circling them, her instinct is to put up the good ol’ fisticuffs?

Jinx having unpecable reflexes and ultra instinx while she's going through a mental breakdown. Tell me she's a queen without telling me she's a queen.

How long do we have to wait for VI to get her gauntlets damn. It’s such a tease

for a second I thought there would be a happy ending. Then I realized Jinx is just too far gone.

Binge-watched this series ever since. Great story and animation. Poor Jinx tho...

Caithlyn is indeed defenseless without a gun, but her reflexes to catch the gemstone on time is cool.

1:27 Vi starts realizing the changes Powder(now Jinx) has gone through… and they are not good… Just the look of fear in Vi’s eyes, man I feel it

Damn the way she cried out for vi. I almost felt bad

2:39 I love how we can see that deep down Jinx ( Powder ) stills cares for Vi after she was abandoned and she still lives with the trauma of the incident.

This scene and what came before ("Light it, and wherever you are I'll find you") fucking broke my heart. Jinx not being sure whether she's hallucinating, Vi realizing just how fucked up her little sister is... Just ouch. I legit cried lmao

1:49 that dodge was sick.

cant wait for next week man this SHIT IS HYPED

I dunno why, but "sister, thought I missed her" the way that's delivered is so heartbreaking

i get goosebumps at 1:47 when Jinx dodges the attack from above, incredible animation.

1:39 Love how the bird-mask lady tilts her head like a magpie admiring a shiny object.

The fact that Vi is realizing through out the fight that Powder(Jinx) is not okay and that Jinx remains alone at the end,thinking that she "Jinxed it" again broke my heart.#TeamVi

I love Vi's reaction upon seeing how violent her sister became. No longer Powder, now Jinx.

If u think about how strong Jinx is and she makes everything she uses herself and alone, without using Magic or anything like that, she is probably the most capable Character in Arcane. Ekko probably wouldve lost the fight if they didnt play the Game from their Childhood.

That no at the end gives me the chills. Excellent voice acting/editing, really pulls out both jinx's schizophrenia and her emotions perfect

0:13 Beautiful how for one brief moment you can see VI breaking through Jinx to reach Powder with a simple touch, completely disarming her. All the confusion in her mind gone for a second. Maybe Powder could have been saved if the firelights didn't show up that evening.

1:25 that was beautiful, love how the bullets come close to the shot

I love that part where Jinx goes ultra instinct at 1:49

Just after noticing the Firelights, Jinx put herself behind Vi to protect her despite aiming for her head few seconds ago. She completely forgets about the stone and about Caitlyn. She even completely forgets about her fear of abandonment and about her anger towards Vi. What a beautiful moment. (Also, it's pretty ironical that the one who catches the stone before it fall in the depths is Caitlyn. She unintentionally sealed her own mother's fate. I feel bad for her.)

that VI's whisper at the end, before she was knocked out, when she realized what her sister had turned into and was scared, God, it just brought me to tears...

We the LoL fans all know, at the end of all, Jinx(Powder) and Vi would go separate ways, one as the psycotic villain, one as the enforcer, and fight each other. I thought that incident at ep3 was the whole reason why, but this ep6 told us it is more than that. At least Vi is still trying to save her little sister and Powder is still missing her older sister deep down in her heart and not completely psychotic yet. I mean, what would happen to them after all of this... Poor girls......

I love how jinx bite her lips when she’s about to shoot her gun. It’s a cute attention to detail.

The way jinx’s face softens when she saw them grab vi. I’m not ok 😭

Ok i'm honestly surprised. When i heard Riot was making a League of Legends show i scoffed. I thought it was gonna be a joke like a lot of other video game movies/shows but god damn the art and voice acting in this is actually so good its insane. Goosebumps for days. Definitely in my top 3 films i have ever seen

I like to think when vi looks at jinx saying "powder?" It's her being terrified to know that jinx doesn't need helping or protecting anymore, realizing she isnt the little kid she used to know

1:48 that miss was so badass

1:30 I like how the Muzzle-flashers from the gun makes Jinx's eyes glow pink, like she's almost turning into the Jinx we all know and love.

Love how despite jinx having doubts she was still willing to trust her enough to fight along side her and even save her.

I’ll say this cus I feel like no one else will but the impact of wht happened to claggor and mylo in act 1 affects jinx so much that she’s been seeing them as ghost is WOW and the thought that they probably ridicule her and call her jinx as a insult all this time for all these years is just the icing on the cake

this may be one of the single best clips of animation ever put on a screen. without any context, this scene would still tell a story without so much as a word spoken. absolutely insane

This show's animation is brilliant in general, but the way Jinx's lips quiver at 2:39 when she notices Vi knocked out is just... oof. Bless the animators. Amazing. Their hard work, dedication, efforts. Just amazing.

"Sister, thought I missed her...but you wouldn't miss her" and then pulls the trigger on her gun. MARVELOUS!!

Am I the only one who see the tragedy in the fact that we get a glimpse here or the untouchable duo that powder and vi could have been together If only 🥺

Caitlyn when her leg got wounded: Carry me home, we got medical supplies there. Jinx when her leg got wounded: "sTaPlEs"

A League of Legends series had NO fucking business to go THIS fucking hard in every god damn scene. Masterpiece.

Jinx’s reflexes are goals! Lmao

Ngl when she said "Sister thought I missed her, Bet you wouldn't miss her." I thought she was talking to Vi, but looking back again, shes talking to the gun and I'm pretty sure shes already named it pow-pow since she goes by jinx now. So in this instance it seems as though jinx said I bet you (pow-pow) wouldn't miss her then wound up her gatling.

I love Jinx's raspy voice. Thank you for gifting us this show

No wonder the bat humanoid firelight keeps giving Vi the stink-eye. She kicked his ass. 😂

in 1:47 you can see that Jinx's inner voices warned her about the attacker above her

The nostalgia in this scene... Jinx reunites with Vi again, but then Vi gets kidnapped again. Took me 2 days to finish watching the first season AND THIS SERIES IS SO GOOD WHILE IT'S TESTIKNG MY PATIENCE

i've played this scene frame by frame, the level of love the artists put into this sequences was amazing

2:53 THE TRANSITION OF HER FACIAL EXPRESSIONS WHEN SHE REALIZED THAT SHE LOST HER AGAIN IS SO GOOOOOD

i love her smoking voice (Jinx). no one could do it better

when vi looked at powder in sheer disbelief and terror that shit broke my heart

The part in the facial expressions with every word at 0:04 was devine. It's so vivid and so expressively bringing out her poor mentak state. The quality is devine

I like how as the scene goes on Jinx starts firing faster and more frequently, Like she's getting excited or something.

1:36 I Like This Characters Mannerisms So Much... She Moves Like An Actual Bird It's So Sick.

Man, I always had a thing for that fighting style of Jinx. You know, like Vi has defense in her heart. And she fights with determination and grit but there's this line she wont cross. The Firelights fight with ferocity, but there's a goal in mind, the mission is victory. But with Jinx, there is no line in the sand, and there is no greater mission. She fights to annihilate her enemies.

The Art direction is amazing. By Far one of the best animated type of show or movie I ever seen. The deep detail to everything. The expressions on their face to how they move. You would think it was mocap. But it wasn't. Seeing Vi & JInx fight back to back is a great thing to see, cause their was a time Jinx always felt like she was weak. Vi shock seeing how far gone her sister has become, is the only reason she was caught off guard. Siblings at it's core is a very powerful thing to see a love one you grew up with loosing themselves is hard to take in. I gotta give Riot some serious Congrats for this story telling. 6 Years and they created a very deep, heart breaking series and it viewers are begging for more.

What’s awesome about the creators is they did their homework for Jinx’s character. Jinx shows a lot of signs for paranoid schizophrenia aside from the obvious hallucinations, delusions, etc. At the start when she says “Sister thought I missed her” she’s using clang, which is when someone suffering from schizophrenia uses short rhymes and phrases that don’t make a ton of sense to anyone except the person saying it. It’s so small but also so cool just how in depth Riot looked into her mental illness(es).

1:58 i can see why vi is acting like that when she is seeing jinx/pouder being a badass for 8 seconds

1:48 I love that head movement she does so much

Jinx always screamed alone in the end of every act.

Getting knocked out in this show is basically just the Undercity way of public transportation.

He got an advantage with her preoccupied, and he decides to go with a scrape on the leg. 2:16

I thought Vi was boring when I first heard about her. I apologize, I was wrong. I am owning that mistake. Vi is awesome, all hail.

I’ve literally never played League of Legends in my life. But this show man. It’s making me really want to.

"You're a class act sister, sister thought I missed her, but you wouldn't miss her."

Act 1: Vi lost Powder Act 2: Jinx lost Vi

I'm not even gonna lie I got teary-eyed when Vi saw Jinx having an absolute blast shooting at the Firelights

That little lip tremble at 2:39. So subtle, I only noticed it after watching this scene many times. Such a great touch that cuts so deep.

0:36 “so..I started blasting”
