Why no full reaction to this episode? Edit: nevermind, it's just tagged differently for some reason.

2023-04-02 15:02:27 +0000 UTCAfter you finish the final episode, you'll really enjoy the music video for "Enemy." It's all-original animation by Fortiche, and it includes a lot of footage of Powder and Ekko as children. (Which, of course, is even more heartbreaking given the events of this episode.)

2023-03-03 00:46:04 +0000 UTCEven better if you do play the game. The first time Ekko meets jinx on the field one of his voice lines is "I had a crush... Until you started talking to the gun."

2023-03-02 07:23:27 +0000 UTCI'm not sure if it was a deleted scene or one that they just decided to leave out, but supposedly there was at one time a plan to have a scene where Ekko does try to save Jinx/Powder at some point. That would explain why he seemed so certain that she was too far gone now.

2023-03-02 00:18:29 +0000 UTCYeah. Also, how cool is it, that it's done in an immersive way, without actually reversing time? And there's more! Actually, everybody's ultimate ability, and even most base abilities, are worked into the movie. Ekko uses the freezing crystals. That's because his W ability stuns his targets. Also his E that allows him to blink from place to place is represented with his flying board that allows him to zip around. Jinx's ultimate is the weapon she makes with the gemstone. Her toys are her E and her pistol is her W. etc etc

2023-03-01 23:50:25 +0000 UTCHave you guys thought about watching Bridging the rift? It's a bts documentary on season 1 of Arcane? And on Ekko's face, it's an hourglass not a skull, just more details that link him to time.

2023-03-01 21:09:47 +0000 UTCLove this ep. Ekko in the game league legend has an ultimate ability that rewinds him back 5s. I love how they reference that during that sick scene with jinx

2023-03-01 19:28:22 +0000 UTCYou are really attentive, I could count on one hand the number of people who realised what the "There is always a choice" scene implied, even though it's not even that subtle!

2023-03-01 18:57:50 +0000 UTCSomething that is remarkable about Little Man is that how he lost just as much as all of the characters, but instead of letting his trauma haunt him or be out for vengeance, like his childhood buddies, he chose to live in the present and make the best out of a bad situation and try to make a safe haven in the undercity. Really love his character!
