    There's actually a reason why Sky wasn't developed. We know so little about her because even Viktor knew so little about her, as evidenced by his line when he threw her ashes down the river. We could've been shown more about Sky, but that would detach us from Viktor. He felt guilty, not because he killed someone he cared about, but because he killed someone he SHOULD'VE cared about but knew so little of. He's not guilty because he loved her, he's guilty because he barely knew her.

      I swear. This show uses fridging AND MAKES IT GOOD. That should not even possible.
      For those who do not know: Fridging is a practice in storytelling, where you introduce a character just to kill them off a little later. It is usually considered lazy/cheap writing, because you try to get emotion out of the audience without building anything up beforehand and it barely ever works.

    • @laconicdraconic697
      @laconicdraconic697 2 роки тому +70

      Exactly, Sky is the exact kind of person Viktor was working to help and he killed her. The real tragedy is that she died for him and before that point she was never even someone he noticed.
      Heck, Jayce calls her Sky, Viktor doesn't even call her by her first name instead using the much more formal and distant Mrs. Young
      As well we don't really get scenes with anyone that isn't main cast unless it's in the context of interacting with one of them, think Ximena Talis, Elora, Finn, any of the Chembarons, or the council excluding Heimerdinger so does make sense we don' t see more of her since the show is in 3rd person limited in a way?

      @EvanOfTheDarkness 2 роки тому +46

      @@morantNO1 I think this highlights, that there are no real ironclad rules in storytelling. Every rule is just a guideline, that although exists for a reason, if you understand those reasons, you can replace, circumvent, or even break.
      While Arcane does fridging, it *also* puts in the work to introduce and build up Sky's character, and her relationship with Victor. Even in her death we get to know her a bit better. And as a result, her death doesn't feel cheap, we've left with a similar feeling of loss as Victor, for a character we wanted to know better, wanted to see develop further. And that's kind of it. For a character's death to mean something, that character also had to mean something. That's the reason _behind_ the rule.

    I personally think a lot of people are misinterpreting the scene of skye's death. I think the reason why it matters so much and why Viktor is so devastated after it is not because we now lost Skye. We didnt even know Skye, Viktor didnt really know Skye, the fact that she is now missing literally doesnt matter. BUT what does matter is Viktor is now a murderer. The only thing he always strifed to do was help people and he was so adament on not making any kind of weapons ever. And yet in a moment of weakness he ends up killing somebody entirely innocent.
    I think that is literally the worst thing that couldve happened to Viktor. Way worse than if for instance Jayce got shot and died in the undercity. All he wanted is to leave a mark in the world before he goes out but now he betrayed everything he worked for and its enough to make him want to end his life right then and there.

The editing is top notch, the script is super solid and god a dozen actual chuckles out of me, and MAN is it relatable to watch you be taken aback by how hot all these characters are
    Also I’m so glad you’re giving Fortiche prod the credit it deserves, my little French heart is so happy that our animation studios are finally being handed big projects after their prioritizing experimental styles got most of their productions to remain pretty underappreciated by the general public and the industry

    this is SUCH a good video! im gonna be honest, i expected it to be one of those dry ass "the animation is so good" reviews, but i love the way you're just passionate about every single aspect, how you admitted to consuming fan content (we've all been there), how you thirst over the cast, how emotional and earnest youve been from the very first minute. the editing is also so good! dont think i havent noticed some of those smooth transitions, the sound editing, the clever writing. you're underrated AF, i hope this video reaches to all those thirsty arcane fans who are desperate for more quality content while the show is on hiatus.

    Quick edit after watching ur video ... very nice summary and very nice edits . Im constantly watching mashups of all the episodes so this summary was great.
    Also i rly think the show is 10 times better (if thats even possible) if u know nothing about the game.

    • @skipp3252
      @skipp3252 2 роки тому +4

      As someone who knew the game very well beforehand I would say that still didnt take anything away from the show. The stuff you could know from the game barely scratched the surface of these characters and even though you knew some things the show still managed to succumb any expectation.

      @@skipp3252 there's one thing about Jayce and Viktor that i know from the lore that will hit very hard, i don't know how they gonna put it in arcane, but i would definitly want to forget it to get the surprise. but it's nice to know what the character will become without knowing how, a lot of series willingly does that, for arcane it's kinda forced

    "Rewatched a couple times."
    Yeah, that didn't happen for me. Not because the show isn't good. But because I was crying my heart out. If I ever was able to rewatch this I would have needed a significant other in order to go through episode 3. (and the nail in the coffin is that I ended up losing my own sister a year after the show aired... right about when I felt like I could go through it again)
    Finally rewatching it now, with someone that cares deeply about me and vice versa. It definitely helped.

    31:30 It's even more tragic than that. Jinx didn't lose another father figure. She killed another father figure. If she had a nickel for every time she killed her father figure in a fit of intense emotion she would have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's tragic that it happened twice.

    Whenever she feels more like powder or whenever she yearns for the past her eyes go back to the color they were when she was a child which was like a greyish black. Whenever she's jinx whenever she's chaotic, or angry her eyes have that pinkish purple glow or tint to them. So I like that they went from showing us them playing as children to showing a fight with real consequence. And for a moment echo saw powder the same way Vi saw powder

Made all my backgrounds Arcane, seen I don't even know how many videos talking about Arcane, got a poster and jinx blanket, Watch Arcane 32 times, decorated all my things with Arcane stickers, talk about Arcane every chance I get, I even made a roblox Jinx avatar, also Vi, Caitlyn, Powder, Jayce, Viktor, and Silco but roblox got rid of them cuz I guess they hate me at least I still have jinx. yes you read me right 32 times and I'm still going to watch it more times, this might come as a shock to some people but it never gets old at least not for me.

  • @Roach_Dogg_JR
    @Roach_Dogg_JR 2 роки тому +4

    I think all the appeal of Arcanes visuals lie in the motion. So much thought is given into the way hair moves, the way action speeds up and slows down. If Jinx were a real human, her hair would flop around stupidly, but with the help of some artistic vision, her hair can flow around the frame and help emphasize Jinx's erratic fighting style.

    You perfectly captured everything i've been feeling about Arcane. I held off watching it when it first came out because everyone was telling me to watch (i have contrarian brain). But after i watched it I can't explain how much it captivated me. I immediately rewatched it, i sought out more and more reaction and analysis videos and even ended up watching the LoL trailers too. There is nothing about it that wasn't a masterpiece. The music, the writing, the voice acting and as you put it the animation that made all other studios look like amateurs. The look on Vi's face after she slaps Powder is so raw and real it seared itself into my mind. All the characters feel alive both in terms of writing and animation. It is truly remarkable. Thanks for giving me one more crumb to hoover up while waiting for S2.
    Also i feel like i'd trade a piece of my soul to see Vi and Cait finally kiss. Those maniacs have to deliver. Unless they find some way to use it to hurt us again...

    As a woman I was so thrilled to see how the women are deep actually characters with a wide variety of personalities and body types. No paper-cutouts here. I love how they each have their weaknesses, too! No perfect marry-sues in sight.
    I want to have Vi's body, too! She's powerful without losing her femininity - her motivation is about a motherly desire to protect Powder.
