I seriously don’t understand why they never nominated Michael Mando for an Emmy. Giancarlo Esposito is always great but personally I think Mando did a better job especially in his last episode
Seriously. No hate on Giancarlo. He's awesome! But holy shit Michael Mando did so much with the character and put on a performance on par with the best in this universe.
Nacho is to BCS as Jesse is to BB in my opinion. They are both sympathetic characters that fans have feelings about. The only difference is Jesse is able to escape that life. Nacho is able to get out by taking his own life instead of the Salamancas doing it. But how the producers were able to justify a throwaway line was absolutely genius. Besides Mike, Nacho is my favorite character
Nacho knew if he fled, they would go after his dad. He literally sacrificed himself for his father. Beautiful and tragic. This is why Mike stood up for him.
the fact that he killed himself to protect his family from the salamancas was super sweet as well. they would have no connection the the upholstery business.
Seeing how keeping Nacho on a short leash using fear nearly backfired on him, that’s probably why Gus in BB doesn’t immediately resort to fear to bring in Walt
The cruelest irony about Nacho's end, the fact all of his enemies wind up dead themselves makes you want him to survive, but his sacrifice *is* what sets their eventual demises in motion.
@@scooter4058 No, it was absolutely 6 year olds because who would typically ride a school bus? Not 60 year olds. The joke is that it looks like a really “pimped out” children’s school bus. And it does.
@@Boobalopbop Yeah I heard 6 too, but I think I remember the Netflix subtitles for that episode mistakenly saying 60, so that's probably where the error comes from.
(I said it already but...) it's hard to accept Nacho was sold out to buy time for some dead men walking but in sacrificing himself like that he basically killed all of them.
I love that Gus’s line in the BB episode where Jesse is cooking alone where he says “I don’t believe fear to be an effective motivator” was a line that Mike said to Gus in the episode talking about having a gun to his dads head.
The character had such a pall of doom hanging over him. Watching him try to figure out how to get out was sad. Then watching him try to figure out JUST how to keep his father safe while "letting" himself be killed was terrifying. At least the writers seem to have allowed his father to stay alive. Though all parents know that having your child killed before you die, is a horrible semi life.
One of creators said, "Hank isn't the protagonist, he is the hero." I think for Nacho you could maybe say, "Nacho isn't the antagonist, he is the good guy."
makes sense tbf cause hank isn’t the protagonist as we follow walt and hank is the force opposing walt even tho he himself is unaware hesienberg is walt. it does make him a somewhat antagonist
I don’t like sleeping without some sort of sound playing so I typically always put on part one of the season six recap or the Mike retrospective. I’m hyped for this video lol
Idk man Jason was a psycho. I know at the end you get to choose what to do but I think him killing his buddies makes more since as a character development.

my friends asked me if i wanted to go the bar the other day during the eagles game, i said no... Nacho was at the bar and they all met him😭let this be a lesson to always go out and do things when u have the opportunity u might meet nacho from bcs
the Nachos story kind of goes with the "definition of insanity" line. trying to do something over and over again in hopes to change something but end result just being same or worse
nacho suspecting saul wanted the kettleman money that badly, then thinking mike was there to threaten nacho and his dad. when it came to robbing criminals and protecting his dad, his instincts were impaired.
I can't believe they made an entire 6 season show just to explain one throwaway line. Seriously tho, Nacho is such an amazing character, I love everything about him.
While maybe not intentional, I do really like the parallel between Mike and his son, and Nacho and his father, where both are characters who convince a beloved family member to take dirty money-comedically, from people involved in the law and from people involved in the cartel, respectively-for the sake of their own safety, only for the briber(s) in question to become suspicious of the bribe-ee's reluctance, and make (or in Hector's case, imply to make) the decision to kill them off anyway, which then results in the initial person to decide to kill the briber in retaliation. Of course, the difference between the two is that Mike made the attempt to kill the dirty cops after his son was murdered, and was successful, while Nacho made the attempt before his father _could_ be murdered, and was not. Both Mike and Nacho see themselves as disappointments to their respective families, and especially given their shared preference to keep those "out of the game" alive and safe shown in the later seasons, I think that's all in all a nice touch.
He needs more roles! I remember when I saw his cameo at the end of the first MCU Spiderman movie thinking it's gonna be awesome to see him as Scorpion only for him to poof out of the sequels.
Love the full story videos for characters as its like a short movie recap while also being retrospective. Also the way you said "baseball cards" cracked me up good ahaha. Thanks for the video!
Just started the video but when Vivid post it makes my day. My day was going so mid and now I can watch this hour long video which IK is gonna be good, normally I don't like long videos but Vivid masters them.
Great Video, Kiwi. I hope you’re pocketing a little cash off these videos cause you deserve it! These videos are all great addendums to add to watching the show. It’s a huge time commitment to actually rewatch the entire show, so it’s fun to just see highlights from various perspectives. I’m sure you do this just for the artistic fun of it, but you deserve support for the great work. Keep them coming! Your channel is gonna keep growing and start hitting big milestones soon. Much love & thanks again
I feel like Jesse is a successful combination of Nacho,Walt, and kinda Mike.He kept his family out of his business but at the same time not doing anything to damage them and also doesn’t try to use killing as a means to an end and how Mike goes by you can’t fix only move on Jesse makes an attempt at some kind of closure with Brock
One small nitpick. At 10:38 you mention "... or Mike can inform Tuco of his side business..." Mike was actually warning Nacho that Pryce going to the cops would eventually lead to them uncovering Nacho's side business and thus alerting Tuco. This is why you can see Nacho immediately become less confrontational as he begins to realize Mike isn't the source of the threat, Pryce is.
He was my favorite character, thanks for this video Kiwi! Really good work as always. I can remember being so angry after I watched the episode, but in the end Nacho's death was inevitable, unfortunately.
1:11:52 This flower I beleve represnts him leaving the life behind as in the show the entire time he is in "the game" he is wearing red however with his father working at the shop, or in this example, passing on, it shows he is finally let go of the anger and violence the color red represents throughout the series. This is all my head cannon so it very well could just be a blue flower.
Does anyone else know the twins well enough to match their names to their faces? Marco - mole under the eye, more expressive, the one shot by Hank and almost drowned by Hector Leonel - Less expressive (unlike Marco who occasionally smirks and is more visibly upset when seeing Lalos fake body), the one who had his legs amputated I always see people call them the "Salamanca cousins" or the "Salamanca twins" I actually really enjoy their characters because they are so loyal, badass, and sexy. I feel like maybe the reason Leonel is less expressive is because he takes the job more seriously as he felt what it was like to fear for the safety of someone you care about young when Hector almost drowned Marco. He learnt to be less emotional because what he told Hector when he was a kid: he wants Marco dead for killing his toy, he learnt that his words have consequences so he shouldn't express temperment as much. I cried when they died. After Leonel was hurt by Hanks car, Marco rushes to him out of worry. This is the only time we see one of them rush because they almost always just walk menacingly because they feel in control of the situation. This time however Marco ignores the mission for a bit to check on his brother. Leonel only tell him to "finish him" and focus on the mission. We see as Marco takes a deep breath to calm himself and heads for Hank, this time motivated even more by revenge for both Tuco and Leonel. He has the chance to kill Hank but instead decides to do it with their axe because it was "too easy" and I think he wanted to inflict more pain on Hank. It is mentioned in BCS that the Salamancas method of killing people is slow, meaning they enjoy torturing their victims. We see this in Tuco wanting to torture Jimmy for info, we see torture equipment in the shack they have in the desert that was gonna be used on Ignacio. And finally we see this as the twins decide to use axes when taking revenge to more pain is inflicted. This decision leads to both their deaths because Marco was furious and emotional. Ironically the thing they avoid doing the most, being emotional to the point of not speaking is what let to the twins' downfall. Marco wanted to avenge his family because all the Salamancas learn from a young age: "family is all" and "blood for blood" Gus mocks their "blood for blood" quote saying that what they're really enforcing is "blood for money". However, I belive it is both. They clearly all believe in "blood for blood" and we have seen them take revenge for one another. We also see them killing people to expand territory, keep their power, get rid of problems and all to keep Don Eladio happy and keep their money.
throwing in that ''sexy'' there just makes this whole bible chapter look so cringe when I have to imagine an actual grown woman typed this all out and was so in awe of these ''gigachads'' from a made up universe, and that she actually felt the need to express all ''love'' for these horrendous kunts of this in a massive youtube comment to the world. You wahmen have more issues than men the more I think about it jfc
@@GLKHD maybe if you stopped being so insecure about the fact that you get 0 bitches then you wouln't be replying to a comment of someone expressing their enjoyment of fictional characters so bitterly. How is what I said different from how much people love characters such as Gus or Lalo who are just as bad as the twins? You are just salty that I "love" them cuz they are good looking even if admittedly they do absolutely nothing like bfr
I never thought about how stupid Hector's plan to use Nacho's dad's business was; if Nacho didn't outright say it, he heavily implied his dad could put the police on them. "I don't trust him," yeah he fucking told you not to lmao. Of course it makes sense in-character, Hector feels like hot shit that can get his way, he wants to stop relying on Gus' trucks as soon as possible, etc etc., but it's just like... come on dude. He more or less sealed his fate from this stupid, short-sighted decision
Nacho had such a “good” energy around him. One of my favorite characters. Tough as nails and willing to die to keep his family same, but still in dignity and not at the hands of the Cartel.
Ironic isn’t it? Mikes son was killed because he hesitated on taking the money, and it cost him his life. Nachos father hesitated to take the money and was almost killed. Nacho even had to convince his father just like mike did to lose their dignity for profit and safety. Yet in the end it didn’t matter, by just hesitating even for a second is enough to put you in danger.
I was very surprised that nachos speech before killing himself and then robbing Hector of his revenge that Hector and the Salamanca's didn't go after nachos dad as payback. While watching that scene....I was positive that it was gonna get his dad killed because that's how petty and vicious Hector was.
God I love these deep dives and analysis videos! Great job, I can only imagine how much time and effort you put in! Super entertaining, loved it! ❤️ Definitely deserved that like and subscribe! Please keep up the great work! 35:58 I also really enjoyed your reference to (Michael Mando) Nacho and his character as Vaas in Farcry! 😄❤️ That was cool, it's always cool when people know it's the same actor!
It's funny to think how, without Nacho, Lalo and Hector probably would've checkmated Gus and Mike long before Walter White ever walked onto the scene. Maybe it makes sense after all that Walt was easily able to outwit them.
I don't understand why you called Nacho an "antagonist", in the beginning of the video. He was quite clearly a protagonist in my mind. I was rooting for Nacho the whole time when I first watched BCS.
Sopranos parallel comment Nacho attempted hit on Tuco with Mike is a brilliant character arc that mimics the Sopranos. Tuco looks more like Tony Soprano, Mike looks like Junior Soprano. In other words, it takes on that type of character arc in their development. It certainly adds to the story line and overall character arcs, like it did in the Sopranos.
I never realized that nacho cutting the ac was so hector would take off his jacket. I always tought it was so hector wouldnt realize that nacho is sweating from stress. Anyways awsome video man
Nacho was a bad, bad, man. But he was wonderful son. I'd put a bullet in my head for my son anyday if I had to. A real, real man. Great character and his death was epic.
My entire family freaked out when the Manitoba licenses were revealed lol. This is by far the coolest reference to my home ever. And it’s the character I’m most attracted to. His end hurt so bad that I legit blacked out the memory. My first watch through I had no idea he died bcz I was able to mentally block it out lol

i'm sorry. a lot of people probably know. i wonder if the skateboard twins would have ever crossed paths with the salamanca twins.
I never thought about how stupid Hector's plan to use Nacho's dad's business was; if Nacho didn't outright say it, he heavily implied his dad could put the police on them.
"I don't trust him," yeah he fucking told you not to lmao. Of course it makes sense in-character, Hector feels like hot shit that can get his way, he wants to stop relying on Gus' trucks as soon as possible, etc etc., but it's just like... come on dude. He more or less sealed his fate from this stupid, short-sighted decision
Nacho had such a “good” energy around him. One of my favorite characters. Tough as nails and willing to die to keep his family same, but still in dignity and not at the hands of the Cartel.
Favorite BB/BCS character and also my favorite far cry villain. Michael Mando is awesome
He looks like he know the definition of insanity
I would love a full story on Howard Hamlin, my favorite character.
I do see a full Howard retrospective in my future.. When though, idk.
Ironic isn’t it? Mikes son was killed because he hesitated on taking the money, and it cost him his life. Nachos father hesitated to take the money and was almost killed.
Nacho even had to convince his father just like mike did to lose their dignity for profit and safety. Yet in the end it didn’t matter, by just hesitating even for a second is enough to put you in danger.
I was very surprised that nachos speech before killing himself and then robbing Hector of his revenge that Hector and the Salamanca's didn't go after nachos dad as payback. While watching that scene....I was positive that it was gonna get his dad killed because that's how petty and vicious Hector was.
Wake up, babe. TheVividKiWi dropped another retrospective vid
Thank you SO MUCH KIWI I love Nacho, glad you did a video on him. Thank you ❤
I can't believe i got an hour and fifteen minutes to watch this beautiful specimen of a man😩
Wake up babe TheVividKiWi just dropped a new bcs retrospective
Great character and amazing series you're doing here!
You can only wonder what an iconic duo nacho and lalo could have been, had things been different :/
I think Nacho is way more of an anti-hero than anyone in the BBBCS universe. And I think he might be my favorite character.
Please do Howard next man, I’m begging you
A Howard video will happen at some point, idk when tho. Eventually!!
I would like to "do" Howard's wife.
Awesome video man! Nacho is my favorite original character in BCS and Mando is a phenomenal actor.
i get SO hyped seeing the post notification from you. i love all of your videos.
God I love these deep dives and analysis videos! Great job, I can only imagine how much time and effort you put in! Super entertaining, loved it! ❤️ Definitely deserved that like and subscribe! Please keep up the great work!
35:58 I also really enjoyed your reference to (Michael Mando) Nacho and his character as Vaas in Farcry! 😄❤️ That was cool, it's always cool when people know it's the same actor!
It's funny to think how, without Nacho, Lalo and Hector probably would've checkmated Gus and Mike long before Walter White ever walked onto the scene. Maybe it makes sense after all that Walt was easily able to outwit them.
I don't understand why you called Nacho an "antagonist", in the beginning of the video. He was quite clearly a protagonist in my mind. I was rooting for Nacho the whole time when I first watched BCS.
It's like poetry how Hector and Chuck got rekt almost at the same time
Awsome Video I realy like how you explain everything super good stuff man.
Excellent breakdown.
Thank you ❤
Sopranos parallel comment
Nacho attempted hit on Tuco with Mike is a brilliant character arc that mimics the Sopranos. Tuco looks more like Tony Soprano, Mike looks like Junior Soprano. In other words, it takes on that type of character arc in their development. It certainly adds to the story line and overall character arcs, like it did in the Sopranos.
Need a Nacho spin off
I have 0 idea why I've been watching BB and BCS breakdowns but I regret nothing.
Great video, Nacho was an amazing character
You do a marvelous job on these videos.
I had to come back to this channel what a mean throwback
Nice video. Effort’s appreciated
I consider myself a “Beard Pro”
I never realized that nacho cutting the ac was so hector would take off his jacket.
I always tought it was so hector wouldnt realize that nacho is sweating from stress.
Anyways awsome video man
maybe it's a false memory, but i thought it was stated by nacho it was to disguise the sweating.
both maybe
How do you do this??!! Lol
Do you sleep? I mean, NOTHING makes me happier than to see another review from you, but I'm getting concerned 🤣
Crap, ur onto me😅thanks for the support tho
Love the tease that you'll be doing this kind of deep dive for Gus 👏 Soon I hope
Nacho was a bad, bad, man. But he was wonderful son. I'd put a bullet in my head for my son anyday if I had to. A real, real man. Great character and his death was epic.
I loved his work in far cry three
Have I ever told you the definition of insanity? ;)
@@TheVividKiWi “Insanity is doing the exact same -ucking thing over and over again and expecting sh!T to change that is crazy”
My entire family freaked out when the Manitoba licenses were revealed lol. This is by far the coolest reference to my home ever. And it’s the character I’m most attracted to. His end hurt so bad that I legit blacked out the memory.
My first watch through I had no idea he died bcz I was able to mentally block it out lol
Nacho is the 'Jessie' that could not be saved.
💯
Nacho Varga wasn't evil like some of the others, but he was a criminal. Certainly an interesting character
