      Season 2 Episode 1-3 are 40:15, 39:30, and 40:05 long (with Netflix logo), so it would take 1:59:50 to beat Arcane S2A1's runtime.

    40:43 I think you’re missing an important detail in this scene. When Sevika refuses Smeech’s offer to turn over Jinx, she says “We don’t hand over our own people.” That isn’t a Silco-ism, that’s something Vander said in the first arc, or atleast very similar to his sentiment to not hand over Vi to the enforcers. It’s ironic that Sevika is now mirroring Vander in so many ways, especially since we were introduced to her ragging on him for being too weak. Everyone seems to come around to understand why Vander did what he did lol

    Fun fact sevikas arm is visual representation whos head of zaun at the time , having normal arm when vander was running everything, shimmer blade arm with silco , no arm when no one was ruling barons this may foreshadow jinx taking over zaun , also this makes smeech offering sevika new arm have a bit cooler meaning

      Jinx casually hinted that she wont stay for long as the ruler.
      As she invented a arm with RNGgimmick. Funnily enough she created a Ranged ability gun with melee attacks (sort of how adcs play. Satire)
      Possibly sevika was meant for that fight game.
      Also she created that RNG arm that may or may not work in fight. Gettin x3 back to back no effect

    1:31:03 Ambessa is clearly forcing a war but I think she’s surprised by Jinx every time. When Jinx blew up the council Ambessa ran in legitimately worried about Mel because that wasn’t part of her plan. Then when Jinx’s “Color Explosion” goes off her smile was almost like when you’re playing a game that you’ve played for a long time, and then you find something new to figure out. She’s confident in her abilities to be able to strategize around a threat, but hasn’t seen one as chaotic as Jinx and she’s excited by that.

But because of the interference and the bomb being set off when they were no longer in position on the alter, that’s why jinx shouts “it’s not ready yet.” Her suicide was interrupted.

    Caitlyn wasn't going to miss, Jinx was going to die, but Isha would have ALSO died, as her head was on the other side of Jinx's. Caitlyn was off the rails, blinded by rage and fueled by revenge. One of the First rules taught about firearms is "know what is behind your target". Bullets do not stop when they hit something, as we see with the 8+cm think steel plate Caitlyn just shot a hole clean through. Vi actually saved Caitlyn by stopping her, moreso than her sister. Vi wasn't as concerned about her sister as she was about Caitlyn going so dark as to be willing to deliberately fire knowing that collateral death to a 5(?)ish year old child would result. Caitlyn would never recover from that, and Vi would never be able to distinguish Caitlyn from the Enforcers who killed her parents.

    I agree that Caitlyn most likely wouldn't have missed, but I think the point is even stronger portraying her going too far in her rage or in seeking revenge, she would've 100% shot Isha too if the bullet didn't conect with Vi's gauntlet, not only was Isha's arm right in the middle of the lens of the scope but even if she moved it towards jinx's head the bullet would have more than likely go through Jinx and hit Isha's head too which was right besides Jinx's head.

Given her reaction to Jace accidentally killing a child in S1E8 when they were on a mission to destroy Shimmer production, I don't fully understand why Vi cares if Isha dies or not given the threat level Jinx imposes. She was quite ready to see more Zaunites (even children) suffer/die if it meant removing the overall threat by the end of S1. Now in S2, after they've unleashed the harmful, poisonous Grey all over Zaun in pursuit of Jinx, Vi suddenly has a heart toward this unknown child who was a hair's breadth from putting a bullet in her forehead?

I don't think it's entirely out of character for her to draw the line at hurting Isha there, she was already unhappy with the plan, there were plenty of scenes where she shows how displeased she is with how Caitlyn's acting.

    edit: People... The Grey is shown as a monster in the records, yes, but also, please consider that WE the audience are also seeing those same records.

    The circle in the council chamber is actually centered on where Jayce's position at the table was, which means Mel got to him very quickly. But it also makes me wonder how Viktor got hit since he was seated just behind and to left of Jayce, which is well within the circle of protection.

    1:18:53 one other fun thing to be noticed is that on the drawing of the left pillar, while Jinx painted Vi's face as a demon figure, she still left 3 colorful hearts besides Vi and in her chest. It could be saying that in Jinx's mind, although part of her wants to end Vi and their bond, that good sister who "has a good heart" is still in there somewhere. And it's perhaps one of the reasons why Jinx doesn't shoot Vi when she got the chance when she was standing on the pillar later on.

    The art truly is insane in Arcane and I love Jinxs' madness and randomness in her creations contributing too the artfulness too.

    There's 1 detail I'm surprised that Necrit didn't mention. But when the council agreed that hextech was to only be a last resort, that's when Ambessa nodded to Rictus and sent him to leave the room, this is likely when he left to give the letter to the chem barron. I believe that was to ensure that hextech would be developed and seen as necessary

      Caitlyn's father is always shown to be an unassertive man. He's subservient to his wife, presumably because he married into the Kiramann family. In Cait's flashback, he's only briefly shown in the background showing off a rifle (coincidentally the only time he's seen happy). In S1E8, he stitches Caitlyn up but does not contribute to the conversation between her and Cassandra.
      He obviously cares for Caitlyn, but is not a very strong person.
