OK, now that you are further in the series and it's not a spoiler, I was dying of laughter when you said "I don't want to Jinx it, but that's Powder fighting Vi" in the intro
Empathy is important so how about a few words on Cassandra: Cassandra is Jayce's patron of 'many years.' She's known him for awhile and considered him bright enough and ambitious enough that she gave him a lot of money to work. When he does on trial, she sees it as her duty to speak in his defense, says he has solid character, and will be a great contributor to society. ... and he's been lying to her this entire time. Imagine if you gave someone $100,000 and they spent years telling you how they were investing in innovative technology to improve people's lives and then, the middle of a trial, they just said "Actually, I've been cooking meth in my apartment." She probably feels used and as though she's been made an idiot very publicly, but she still votes for the lighter sentence. You ask "How does Cassandra think of Jayce? As an investment?" but you never flip that on Jayce. Does he show any regard for Cassandra? Jayce's dream of Hextech required funds and Cassandra was a fat paycheck. Even when he comes to her manor, Jayce is there because he wants someone to help him with Hextech. He says he's there to 'explain' not 'apologize.'
It's an interesting analogy, except hextec IS innovative technology to improve people's lives, so you didn't really make a distinction here, or at least that distinction is diminished because of that. If those were Jayce's words then he didn't lie or deceive.
Also, why Jayce went there doesn't even get the chance to figure into such evaluations, not just because it has no relevance on Cassandra as a character, but also because Cassandra doesn't give him the light of day at all - she's completely unwilling to hear anything from him. So, yes, it's fair to say that she sees him as an investment and as something to benefit her reputation. And once he can't be a boon to her anymore and her association with him tarnishes her instead, she drops him cold. Moreover, her defending Jayce can be seen in that same light: defending Jayce helps soften the blow on her own reputation just as much as it "helps" him.
@@Yutani_Crayven you say hextech is innovative technology but you're focusing on the endpoint. Magic is literally ONE of the banned things in their society. Cassandra is one of the COUNCIL MEMBERS. If everyone found out that you, a council member, gave your money and your support to help fund research that is considered heretical, a research that you a council member is task to prevent. What would you feel? Of course we all know that they will end up accepting hextech but that is irrelevant to what Cassandra knows or feels during that time. Jace did not only appropriate her funding for banned research, he also possibly implicated her as the one who funded the research on a topic that goes against their society. She is very much right to cut him off at that time. It was the logical and right thing to do from her viewpoint.
The thing that I've noticed is the topsiders have never once mentioned the events of the first episode introduction; the war as Ed sometimes refers to it. The Undercity carries that trauma in much more obvious ways, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Piltover cast wouldn't even know what they were talking about if it was mentioned. Which makes sense, they view the Undercity more as Piltover's slums than a separate city and the movement never even made it across the bridge. To them it was probably just a minor riot that got properly handled by law enforcement a decade ago without even reaching them. Which also demonstrates why Vander was so against violence. They're so outmatched their previous attempt at rebellion was possibly not even noticed as such.
@@DarthRayj yeah, I think the main reason she even knows about it and the details surrounding it is that it’s literally her job as well. The only person who directly acknowledges that event from topsides perspective is the person who was probably in charge of stopping it and surprisingly despite her being a directly antagonistic character towards the rebellion she’s also one of the most empathetic characters we see in the show. It’s very interesting and adds just another aspect to the conflict and further muddies the water of morality.
He really just showed up, started the episode, and immediately explained a major part of Caitlyn's motivations and half her character arc within seconds of meeting her, based only off one line that wasn't even said by her, and the general vibe of the scene. I can no longer tell if he is psychiatrist or psychic. He clearly has some kind of magic powers. Also just goes to show how good the writers of Arcane are, that they were able to put enough subtext in one scene that it was even possible to psychoanalyze it that accurately.
It makes me insanely proud of the show for it to be analyzed by someone with a doctorate like this and be predicted so well. Also as someone who relates to these characters so much, especially both Powder and Vi (I have some complex family relationships), to be validated almost and to learn more about myself is insanely fun for me. I am binging this reaction series and I am so excited to watch the rest especially your reactions to Jinx because I have similar trauma and responses. Well, I actually have an alter that was formed because of similar trauma to Powder and when I watched this show it was UNCANNY the way that Jinx is because my alter is basically exactly like her in her perceptions and understandings of the people and actions around her.
Fuck not me crying at the "kid having x passion but parents tell them oh that might just be a hobby if anything go get a REAL job" fucking hurt me so hard bc this was my experience growing up and I didn't even realize how bad it's affected and is affecting me until I heard that.
Something else with Milo's aim being good and all that when the enforcers came in, he was also laying down cover fire for Powder. Had never noticed it before re-watching with you on this.
Love the science discussion. There’s a great line from a book I read recently that this brought to mind. The main character is with a bunch of scientists on ship, when one of them says “we’re a 100 km off shore, should be good”. The main says something like “for what? Good for what?”. The scientist looks around, pauses and says “TIME FOR SCIENCE!” and pushes the big red button…😂
oh yeah the fight choreography in this show is absolutely top tier, actual boxers have analyzed scenes with Vi (but don’t look anything up until after you’re done with the season) Edit: also there’s a typo in the title, it should say “Cycles”
I'm going to bring this up as I think it's a very world relevant comparison. Most of Piltover (and especially the council and Heimerdinger) view magic the same way that many in our world view nuclear power. Sure, it may have benefits, but the potential for damage is enough to scare off a huge portion of people. It doesn't matter what the possible benefits are. They've seen one too many Chernobyl's or Fukashima's to ever want to risk allowing anyone to even experiment with it again. Irony here is I'm a big fan of nuclear power. I think it's dangerous but that its dangers have been exaggerated to the point of it being a cultural boogeyman.
He's cooking. Powder alone will make hours of content, and we're not even talking about the rest of the cast & content. Ed spent 1 hour on the intro just for Jayce and the intro song.
Even though my parents made MANY mistakes, I'm glad they were really supportive on all my job ideas. Basically "Do what you like, we support you. You just have to find a way to make a living out of it."
way way way late to the party but I just thougth of this; isn't it interesting that when the guard is searching for the kids, as someone from piltover (the 'upper' city) he never thinks the kids would hide above him? he never thinks to look up; instead he looks down, looks under things like looking for a rat. It would have been so easy to find the kids if he looked up, but it never crossed his mind
Jesus h effing christ. Cait's a preteen here. Give her a break for respecting her parents. Rebellion is isn't due for a couple of years. Cassandra on the other hand has very good reason for being pissed at Jayce. She put her money and reputation on the line to be his patron, then also spoke up for him in the council and his response was to set up what is this word's equivalent of a meth lab. And even then she STILL voted for the lesser sentence. Remember, she has her own life to lead, her own obligations and responsibilities. From her point of view she is keeping Cait away from a confirmed criminal who got her underage daughter involved in illegal and dangerous activities.
I wish i could triple subscribe. I swear not even an hour in and your insights to the freaking intro made me see everything in a whole new light holy crap. Your analisations are so spot on i cant. Ok don't mind me imma just continue watching the vid now lmao (also dont do my boi victor like that haha he is just following orders. U'll grow to love him hehe) Edit: HOLDUP!! U DO MMA???! THATS SO FREAKING COOL!! I mean i "officially" do kungfu but our sifu also learned fighting sports since he was like 4 or sumtn and battled in mma fights so he also teaches us a lot of other forms of fighting.. (more in a self defense/practical kind of sense than a real "traditional" kind of teaching tho.. unless you specifically wanna learn boxing or something) And its so cool hearing others done the same.. Idk why i even mentioned this but just hearing you talk about fighting sports since you were like 3 reminded me of him XD.. anyhow i'm finally at the halfway mark lmao. Can't wait to see your 5h vids if this already took you 2 like geez. The insights we'd get.. i can't wait! Wonder what your verdict is on silco and his backstory.. will see in ep 3 i guess~ Edit: omgg so good!! Thank you for this reaction(uωu 人)💕💕 You are honestly so genuine and nice to watch!! i love your personality! So yeah.. good soup😌👌 and yep this show is ffn peak you are not wrong haha Welp, on to episode 3~~
If you want to look for a specific frame in a video on UA-cam, such as a purple X during video analysis, you can use the comma and dot keys to go one frame forward or backwards. Using QWERTY, these are the keys that also have the "lesser than" and "greater than" arrows on them when pressing Shift. Look for those arrows, and then scrub your the video frame by frame.
If you’re looking for game ideas, I really love Celeste. It’s a difficult platformer, but there’s themes of mental health that creep into the game as well I think you’d enjoy. GoAT for me.
As somebody that has played league for years, you don't want to learn how to play, the game is nothing like the series, it just has characters and places that they used in the show. HOWEVER, you 100% should look into the lore because the worldbuilding is absolutely incredible
ED ending arcane you must watch the documentary about the production (Bridging the Rift) now that this idea dawned upon me i an even more interested on you analisis of this that anything
Accountant? Lol. Entry level accounting wont exist in 5 years. AI will do the vast majority of accounting in short order. I think the Council is simple oligarchy with the possibile exception of Heimerdinger (I dunno if he's monetized his position in the university and as a founder. I'd assume he's rich though.)
Seriously, more than playing league, I'd love to see you react to league lore and cinematics. Day 2 of asking Ed to react to League lore. Also, over 2 hours of reaction wow, we're having Oshi no Ko levels of content here. I'm going to run through my snacks and money watching these.
If League of Legends is truly something you want to learn to play, I'd suggest playing the mobile game League of Legends: Wild Rift. It's the same concept as teh PC game, games are a bit quicker due to some changed game mechanics like buildings having less armor. But the real reason I advice it is its tutorial. It has an extensive tutorial that will also get you ready for the PC game of League of Legends. Lorewise, you're not going to get much out of the game though. As an example, while Vi and her sister are both playable characters, that Vi and Powder are sisters is a piece of lore only revealed in Arcane; not in the game itself. You can however find additional lore on the website for all the other characters of League of Legends (in the Universe tab) and on their UA-cam channel, in the form of little text stories, comics, concept art, short films, dance videos (yes!), and other material.
@1:16:00 A guy's building a bomb that can take out a building without any oversight or safety measures, doing the experiments in a residential apartment… and you're worried that they're coming down on him instead of just using the weapons against the low-income neighborhoods of their own city??
I'm just getting to your reacts but if you still want to learn league, i'm a twitch streamer and my group teaches people league all the time. We are super friendly, a little odd but friendly. lol
You are referencing the SPE, but it is revieled for that exact reason. It was, in no uncertain terms, dangerous to mind and body of the experimentees and entirely unethical. And that is what is being discussed by Heimerdinger. The Ideal to strive towards. No great science *should* put lives at risk. Reality seems to disagree, but that is no reason to abandon the thought entirely. Always strive to be save for your sake and others.
i recomend you finish arcane before start playin league, Arcane is a precuel from about 7 playable characters in the game, vi, j.. powder, jays, ww, ekko, caitling, and singed
@@psyculturists They're ignoring the fact this game character they're referring to has a very noticeably different skin color than that mysterious mage. And then they'll say "Well, he had normal human skin color when he was younger." Yeah, he had normal human skin color... CENTURIES prior to Arcane's setting. He's super old and should have his iconic inhuman skin color by now. He also doesn't carry a staff and he certainly doesn't need one to perform magic because he's that powerful. (Hoping Riot Games doesn't try to retcon this fact just to insert him into the show because that'd be terrible for the worldbuilding. 🤞🏼)
I'm not sure you need someone to teach you how to play LoL, it's more a matter of download the client and start playing. You can casual the game with very little input. Is best to start with friends though, like most games of that type. That said, if you really want the experience, you should try DotA, the Warcraft 3 map that Riot ripped off to make LoL. =D Or maybe even DotA2, the LoL ripoff made by Valve. ;D French! Arcane is French! It was animated by Fortiche Production out of Paris, France. Riot Games, the IP Owner, is Chinese, being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tencent out of Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. It is still anime though, because it's animated. CGP Grey has a fantastic video on why Teleportation is actually just suicide, by extension then therefore teleporting someone else without consent is actually murder. ua-cam.com/video/nQHBAdShgYI/v-deo.html for reference, "The Trouble with Transporters". Come to think of it, CGP Grey's work would be interesting to see if anyone sufficiently well versed in science had reacted to. Making a note to investigate after this video and to drop that in the suggestions box on the discord.... Point of Order: Fox is spicy _dog_. Animalia>Chordata>Mammalia>Carnivora>>Caniformia>Canidae>Caninae. In contrast, cats are Animalia>Chordata>Mammalia>Carnivora>Feliformia>Felidae>Felinae. The internet is still swimming in submarine jokes, but it's refreshing to know that Ed wouldn't sink to that level. Side note: you will survive getting your arm mangled. You won't always survive being knocked out, even in training with an EMT/Para present (which is why tapping out is a thing). It's not that the council wants another war with Zaun, it's that they're so disconnected from reality in their ivory towers that they assume such a thing isn't even possible. Considering the age of Kha'Zhun/Osha Va'Zaun/Zaun (thousands of years), it's probably impossible to guess who the statues are supposed to be, really. Quick note about "what the characters represent in the game": LoL doesn't really do in-game lore. There's character sheets, if you happen to read them, but there's no single-player or story mode, so nearly all of the lore comes from outside the game itself. Plus, many of the characters were taken straight from the original DotA game and thus had to be renamed and altered before Riot could use them, like the Blizzard-owned characters such as Kel'Thuzad and Vol'Jin but also characters the map creator (because it was a player-made map) included from other IPs, like Lina Inverse and Black Arachnia (from Slayers and Transformers: Beast Wars, respectively). The same occured when Valve adapted DotA into DotA2, although most of the name changes are less noticable and mainly to separate DotA2 from Blizzard's IP. Great reaction, looking forwards to your next one. =)
1:07:08 "Look I don't wanna Jinx anything but-" Lmaooo I am dead.

Wow, I'd never actually considered that angle. Thank you!

God, I love how Ed is unconsciously wizarding just by saying things.
I know EXACTLY where you mean. I laughed so hard.

I'm going to bring this up as I think it's a very world relevant comparison. Most of Piltover (and especially the council and Heimerdinger) view magic the same way that many in our world view nuclear power. Sure, it may have benefits, but the potential for damage is enough to scare off a huge portion of people. It doesn't matter what the possible benefits are. They've seen one too many Chernobyl's or Fukashima's to ever want to risk allowing anyone to even experiment with it again.
Irony here is I'm a big fan of nuclear power. I think it's dangerous but that its dangers have been exaggerated to the point of it being a cultural boogeyman.
At this rate of an added hour per episode the finally episode should be about 10 hours
Don’t ‘jinx’ it 😂
im taking it, dudes really good at talking let him cook
@@joesoq he's a wizard, after all

This guy is really good analyst. Well done bro
I think it is honestly one of the best animated magic scenes I've scene 13:20 around
1:36:39 I mean she literally throws a bomb at someone in episode one. I don't work but she's actively make bombs to throw at people.
32:18 "you changed" as a person whos seen the whole show a few times now. ouch
"you changed too"
way way way late to the party but I just thougth of this; isn't it interesting that when the guard is searching for the kids, as someone from piltover (the 'upper' city) he never thinks the kids would hide above him? he never thinks to look up; instead he looks down, looks under things like looking for a rat. It would have been so easy to find the kids if he looked up, but it never crossed his mind
I loved watching your near 3 hour review of episode 2, and that is a statement! Can't wait to watch the rest!
How to wait for episode 3, it's going to be a craaaazy ride.
1:40:12 "First off, what a cutie." Cait's a legit snack.
Yay, more Arcane, was doing some refreshing expecting the reaction might appear 😂
Haha, ahhh that moment seeing your dawning comprehension about the theme song's lyrics was lovely.
I cannot wait for the next episode. No spoilers anyone.
Wake up baby, Ed just dropped another banger video!!!
7:25 analyzing spell casting with the wizard himself 👀
This dude's insight is insane
Jesus h effing christ. Cait's a preteen here. Give her a break for respecting her parents. Rebellion is isn't due for a couple of years.

Welp, on to episode 3~~
At 1:38:02, for the "Yeah, no shit." I'm pretty sure it's the voice of Ekko, not Powder.
i feel like next episode's gonna be a 5 hour long cooking show
Lol it's "only" 3 hours. Went up 1 hour each time. Spot on.
If you want to look for a specific frame in a video on UA-cam, such as a purple X during video analysis, you can use the comma and dot keys to go one frame forward or backwards.

As a suggestion you should watch NIMONA. A ton of mental health and identity readings can be done from that movie.

Wait 2hours 40minutes???
Ed is cooking
Bros speedrunning. LET'S GO
ED ending arcane you must watch the documentary about the production (Bridging the Rift) now that this idea dawned upon me i an even more interested on you analisis of this that anything
2:00:05 ... would you say they like editing anime clips to music and reading fantasy books with convoluted backstories?
I was watching it on x1.5 speed and got hit with those rap and beatbox lol
yo, finally I am being able to watch the second one, lets gooo
The next episode about to be 5 hours long
someone clip Ed at 1 hour 6-7 mins something and send it back to him after ep 4 :)
Accountant? Lol. Entry level accounting wont exist in 5 years. AI will do the vast majority of accounting in short order.
I think the Council is simple oligarchy with the possibile exception of Heimerdinger (I dunno if he's monetized his position in the university and as a founder. I'd assume he's rich though.)

Someone should have told ed not to dig into the OP until midway
I am not good at League, but I'm pretty mediocre. I can teach you what I know though!
chat is evil lol

And that is what is being discussed by Heimerdinger. The Ideal to strive towards. No great science *should* put lives at risk. Reality seems to disagree, but that is no reason to abandon the thought entirely. Always strive to be save for your sake and others.
i recomend you finish arcane before start playin league, Arcane is a precuel from about 7 playable characters in the game, vi, j.. powder, jays, ww, ekko, caitling, and singed
viktor too
@@tenta6224 yes.. i remember that a day latter and have a bit of shame to mention it
No, he's just a mage. Whoever tells you that he is a character in the game is just hooked on farfetched fan theories.
Even now people still tell me he's a character from the game 😭
@@psyculturists They're ignoring the fact this game character they're referring to has a very noticeably different skin color than that mysterious mage.
And then they'll say "Well, he had normal human skin color when he was younger." Yeah, he had normal human skin color... CENTURIES prior to Arcane's setting. He's super old and should have his iconic inhuman skin color by now.
He also doesn't carry a staff and he certainly doesn't need one to perform magic because he's that powerful.
(Hoping Riot Games doesn't try to retcon this fact just to insert him into the show because that'd be terrible for the worldbuilding. 🤞🏼)
Ok. I usually like your in-depth stuff but I am an hour in and we're are still at the intro.
I'm out
bruh just skip ahead 😂
You must be new here haha
I'm not sure you need someone to teach you how to play LoL, it's more a matter of download the client and start playing. You can casual the game with very little input. Is best to start with friends though, like most games of that type. That said, if you really want the experience, you should try DotA, the Warcraft 3 map that Riot ripped off to make LoL. =D
Or maybe even DotA2, the LoL ripoff made by Valve. ;D
French! Arcane is French! It was animated by Fortiche Production out of Paris, France. Riot Games, the IP Owner, is Chinese, being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tencent out of Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. It is still anime though, because it's animated.
CGP Grey has a fantastic video on why Teleportation is actually just suicide, by extension then therefore teleporting someone else without consent is actually murder. ua-cam.com/video/nQHBAdShgYI/v-deo.html for reference, "The Trouble with Transporters".
Come to think of it, CGP Grey's work would be interesting to see if anyone sufficiently well versed in science had reacted to. Making a note to investigate after this video and to drop that in the suggestions box on the discord....
Point of Order: Fox is spicy _dog_. Animalia>Chordata>Mammalia>Carnivora>>Caniformia>Canidae>Caninae. In contrast, cats are Animalia>Chordata>Mammalia>Carnivora>Feliformia>Felidae>Felinae.
The internet is still swimming in submarine jokes, but it's refreshing to know that Ed wouldn't sink to that level.
Side note: you will survive getting your arm mangled. You won't always survive being knocked out, even in training with an EMT/Para present (which is why tapping out is a thing).
It's not that the council wants another war with Zaun, it's that they're so disconnected from reality in their ivory towers that they assume such a thing isn't even possible.
Considering the age of Kha'Zhun/Osha Va'Zaun/Zaun (thousands of years), it's probably impossible to guess who the statues are supposed to be, really.
Quick note about "what the characters represent in the game": LoL doesn't really do in-game lore. There's character sheets, if you happen to read them, but there's no single-player or story mode, so nearly all of the lore comes from outside the game itself. Plus, many of the characters were taken straight from the original DotA game and thus had to be renamed and altered before Riot could use them, like the Blizzard-owned characters such as Kel'Thuzad and Vol'Jin but also characters the map creator (because it was a player-made map) included from other IPs, like Lina Inverse and Black Arachnia (from Slayers and Transformers: Beast Wars, respectively). The same occured when Valve adapted DotA into DotA2, although most of the name changes are less noticable and mainly to separate DotA2 from Blizzard's IP.
Great reaction, looking forwards to your next one. =)
