Arcane Ep 3

Comments

I think part of the reason they include those is for people who are deaf/hard of hearing. It apparently does help with the experience for them, even though they can't quite experience it the same as us.

I don’t think Powder wasn’t worth love… I’m saying that’s what Vi came across as saying in her eyes. Acting like someone is bad luck and a fuck up pretty much communicates that, especially when the person you’re talking to is like 12 and has obvious self-worth issues already. My comment was explaining how I think the idea of Powder “being bad luck” is wrong lol. She’s smarter than them and better with utilizing objects, but that’s not really what their group respects. She’s never been like them and buckled under the constant pressure she always felt. And technically she didn’t fuck up here, it did explode 😅

The only thing that I'm gonna say is that yes, the character that Powder is gonna become is the actual character in the game. I wouldn't be surprised if you recognize her character design when that happens from seeing it somewhere. (She's literally the face that appears in the mobile game)

🐒 💣 was cool af tho

I wouldn’t go as far to say that powder isn’t worth the love, Vi’s moreso saying she’s bad luck and a fuck up. Someone who jeopardizes the team.

Vi didn’t say Powder jinxed everything, she said she WAS a jinx. Meaning all she’ll ever do is hurt people and she’s not worth the love that Vi had been giving her after all. Powder never learned to cope with her fear, she was always either coddled or berated for it. That fear is what caused her to do something so desperate and dangerous in the first place. Reacting based on fear is never a good thing, but she was left alone and it boiled over. It’s just a bad, bad situation.

Chelly

It's such a horrible situation all around. Vi and Powder are both still kids (even if they're a bit toughened from underground life), and Vi would have had to really be the bigger person in that moment to sideline her emotions, not be reactive, and just be there for Powder. Powder didn't know any better -- she was scared, didn't fully understand the situation, and did the best she could with what she had. And completely agree -- I love the shifting perspectives surrounding that moment!

Taylor

Powder did infact jinx the mission. Everyone got their tasks done it time, vi held the goons off, Mylo freed Vander, claggor made an escape route and they were all about to leave mostly unscathed until Powder's monkey bomb went off. VI is complete justified in her anger and blame, but powder really did just want to help and prove herself.

Belac

That guilt gonna grow

👀 oh well damn

I won't turn them off because there are viewers who are ESL here. But I agree.... like DUMB stuff is included 😅

Now that you've seen this episode -- while this show was going people were like "oh, Mylo and Claggor? Cool characters! They aren't in the game I wonder if they are "x" character with some character development, or maybe they will be added to the game" and then this episode came and we were all like "ah. I see"

FullHeart

Dang, I almost forgot how good this episode is! Yea, why I'd say script is very good in Arcane is the fact that I'm the guy with literally zero knowledge of league of legend completely taken by the story. I dont need to know anything about the game just to simply enjoy the show. I hope they keep being that consistent in season 2 which comes in Novermber (?) I suppose. The expectation bar is set high.

Really random tangent about a pet peeve of mine, great episode for sure and I’m sure everyone else will have much to say, but… Subtitles really need an option to turn off things like “foreboding music” or “music grows more intense”… I really don’t think most people need that kind of help lmao. It really messes with the tension when they straight up TELL you how you’re supposed to be feeling. Even if you’re deaf/hard of hearing the story writing itself should be able to make you feel how you’re meant to without trying to shove it in your face… Tony, if you wanted to turn the subtitles off I would not complain haha (I know you probably won’t tho, ngl I’m just wondering if I’m alone in thinking this way)

Chelly

"viagra in the future is weird" nah i think he was just allergic or something

cue

I wouldn’t really call them “distinct”… they’re still the same overarching plot. But yeah pacing-wise it’s 3 episodes each arc

Chelly

Just heads up in case you aren’t aware but the first season is structured in three arcs each 3 episodes long. So you just finished the first arc. While the overall story are connected each arc has its own distinct focus

Mohamed

Something you might have missed is that Vi and the others were just about to escape right before Powder's explosion went off. Mylo unlocked Vander's cuffs and Claggor finished digging a hole through the wall. Powder didn't mean any harm, but she technically did cause their deaths.

Steven Tran

Damn, i'm so happy you are wachting Arcane. You just finished the prologe. Enjoy the ride and the music.

Niklas Neumann

I've been waiting for your reaction to this episode lmao, it's so peak!
