[Uncut] Arcane 1x09

Comments

Vander was a weak leader, a good man, and a good dad. Silco was a strong leader, an evil man... but still a good dad. He wanted the wrong things for Jinx because his moral compass was out of whack, but he wanted what he saw as the best thing for her.

Loved you journey through all 9 episodes, any thoughts on doing bringing the rift? Its a behind the scenes/making of arcane that is on YouTube and it's 5 episodes. Its so good some people call it arcane 1.5

LMAO, your reaction to the ending was mine too. Now imagine waiting three years for the next season. You lucky bastard you get to wait only a month XD Silko is one of my favorite villains. Jason Spisak was incomparable in the role as the english VA. I also loved Sevika (voiced by Amirah Vann) a lot and was disappointed neither of these two got added to the roster in the games even though I don't really play LOL.

Something that I feel gets overlooked in the table scene near the end is that Silco wanted to shoot Vi, yes, but not out of some malice. He wanted to protect Jinx. Vi kept shouting at Jinx to remember her friends, her family, basically all the things that torment her and hurt her. You even see Jinx whimpering at her to stop. Silco even screams the "stop it, don't listen to her" line to try and get Jinx to escape from those monsters that Vi is piling on her. Eventually as the monsters are surrounding Jinx Silco, out of desperation, tries to silence the one creating them and gets shot. The whole time he was trying to protect Jinx, in his own twisted way.

Is Silko good for the people: Which people? He is undoubtedly far worse for some people and better for others. I think what you can say about him is that he is true to his ideals. He sees the creation of Zaun almost like righting some cosmic injustice and so for him whatever are the most effective means are justified by those "divine" ends. I believe he doesn't care about individuals in the undercity unless they are useful to his cause as he openly practices collective punishment. He was going to kill Vi and Powder's entire family because they were inconvenient. The one exception to all of his machiavellian machinations is Jinx. He would move the world for her.

Right off the bat. The English title is "The Monster You Created" The serpent without a head makes sense but I wonder why they changed it? I can't think of a cultural reason why.
