    The most heartbreaking moments of Arcane are the ones not even spoken of. The ones you have to self realize to understand their impact.
    1. Sky is the little girl that watches over Viktor as a child playing with the boat he made in episode 6. She's had an unrequited crush on him pretty much her entire life. Marvelling at his ingenuity. Then she died to save him from the hex core that he created.
    2. Vi gave Powder a blue flare saying "Where ever you are. Light this up and I'l find you" Powder has blue clouds tattooed all over her arms and body. She's always been calling out to Vi to come save her.

      And each starring a female lead oddly enough
      Sword Interval (amazing webcomic),
      Control (great video game)
      Arcane
      And the newest Ghostbusters (the girl is the main lead, and look me in the eye and tell me it doesnt count as fantasy)
      Feels like each time i start to suffer withdrawal i hop onto another urban fantasy with a female lead lately
      But ghostbusters didnt fill the void as much so im suffering from Arcane withdrawal

    This scene in the show broke my heart. Because even after everything that happened, after Silco tried to "kill" Powder, when she hears that Vi is alive and in the Lanes, the first thing she does is find the highest point she can and fires the flare so her sister can find her

    • @wolverineheat5606

    I felt like this was the last plea from Powder.....praying her sister, the sister who loved her, who promised she would find her, would return. And while her prayer is answered her damaged mind and the poisoned words from Silco sets things on course for her descent from Powder to the madwomen Jinx. Her standing there with the flare with Mylo and Claggor's haunted forms behind her will be etched into my mind for a while...such a powerful scene.

      You definitly have a point, though I don't think Silco is so bad. In a way he was the only person who actually loved her throughout all that time her sister was gone, no matter what she did, even if it hurt him, he loved her with perfect unconditional love. I think its more of a tragedy of just bad timing and unfortunate events for everyone how it all turned out.

    Hold the die, your turn to roll
    Before they fall through your fingers
    Not a good night to lose control
    Right as the earth is unraveling
    You play with your blocks until they break
    And these walls come tumbling down
    Oh, they're tumbling down
    You're out of time, make your move
    Live or die while the fuse is lit and there's no turning back
    Kiss your perfect day goodbye
    Because the world is on fire
    Tuck your innocence goodnight
    You sold your friends like guns for hire
    Go play with your blocks
    And now you'll pay when these walls come tumbling down
    Oh, they're tumbling down
    Resting on a knife, you heavy souls
    With all this weight buckling down on you now
    Don't you drown and float away
    Not a good time to lose control
    Right as your marionettes cut their strings and run away
    You're out of time, make your move
    Live or die while the fuse is lit and there's no turning back
    Kiss your perfect day goodbye
    Because the world is on fire
    Tuck your innocence goodnight
    You sold your friends like guns for hire
    Go play with your blocks
    And now you'll pay when these walls come tumbling down
    Oh, they're tumbling down

    I've seen a lot of animated shows (anime and western animation) like ATLA, Castlevania, AOT, death note, etc, but no show has had so beautiful an artstyle, raw emotions, as good a pacing, and excellent story arc as Arcane. There are no fillers, everything is constantly moving (my complaint with some of the anime styles), the facial expressions are everything, and the world building is intricate and lived in. This is my favorite animated show of all time.

      If League wasn't a free game, I can guarantee there'd be less complaining haha. It would definitely keep out a lot of toxic players who spam new accounts after getting each new account permabanned...
      I genuinely do enjoy the game, as every game is a challenge and forces me to strategize on how to win. It's especially rewarding when my team acknowledges my efforts and honors me for my gameplay. But on the other end of the spectrum, the toxicity is incredibly awful. Not the worst community I've seen (looking at Overwatch..), but still pretty bad.
      While most of the community hates League, they're also the same people who are toxic and keep the game toxic.
      Anyways, even if you don't like League itself, the lore is actually quite good and I think it's worth checking out (all stories are on League's website). They even have comics that expand on the universe, and they're quite good.

    Riot Games has outdone themselves with the Arcane series. They have done justice to the characters, as well as the world of Runeterra, giving fans a perfect depiction of Zaun and Piltover, their contrasting appearances, their relationship with each other, and their relationship with the world around them.
    At the same time, they have given us a show that even people who know nothing of League of Legends can enjoy, with no need of prior knowledge of the characters, delivering the world and explaining it a piece at a time in flawless fashion. 10/10, I am honestly shocked at the level of quality.

    WHEN WILL THE LIES END KIM!
    Jokes aside, I love your covers. Not gonna lie, I thought the animation would be the best part about Arcane when I saw the teasers for it with the story being good at best to meh at worse but it would be something that long time league players and fans of the lore like me would appreciate especially after years of jokes and pleads of people saying Riot should just get into animation since videos like the original 'Get Jinxed' music video or cinematics like 'New Dawn'. Yet I wasn't expecting to binge-watch each act as soon as they show up and get sucked into it. It wasn't just the animation that was phenomenal, but the story-telling, the voice-acting, the music, everything engulfed me in and had me hooked in a way series hasn't in a very long time. And for a long-time league player, it was awesome seeing these characters be played out like this and gave me hope for the future. You can say what you will about Riot but you can't deny that the world they created for their MOBA has so much potential and Arcane is the best example of that. I can't wait for season 2 and I really hope that Arcane's success will inspire Riot to take more chances like this. Hell, Arcane will be for Riot what Iron Man was for Marvel and we could get the entire universe of characters explored in this way?
    TLDR: Great cover from an awesome song for an amazing scene for a series that went well and beyond the expectations of even fans of the game which you really, really shouldn't play and I would recommend the card game instead.

    For me, one for the most heartbreaking moments in the series was when Heimer went to the undercity. For him to understand the wrongs he did while he had the position of the chancellor was so impactful. The pain and curiosity in his eyes when he saw the condition actual people lived in was so well illustrated, these moments for me were moments of true regret, and he fact that all that happened to him and how Jayce betrayed him led to him surviving in the least likely place possible while the rest blew up was a fine touch.

    I just realised the song lyrics relate heavily to Silco. As if Jinx is singing these lines directly to him, that his perfect day is gone and his world is on fire. Foreshadowing that the Undercity and Piltover will both now be consumed by chaos and war.
    He's lost control of his empire, his minions, and lost control of her, his own daughter.
    He will pay when his walls come tumbling down.

    "Guns For Hire" is one of the best songs on Arcane (2021 -), it's so beautiful to listen to this song, but even more so when it's epically orchestrated and composed by Samuel Kim and sung by Aloma Steele. Both are the perfect duo, to create the best cover of this song, which even the composer of the series himself loved. That is quite an achievement, guys.

    Hold the die, your turn to roll
    Before they fall through your fingers
    Not a good night to lose control
    Right as the earth is unraveling
    You play with your blocks until they break
    And these walls come tumbling down
    Oh, they're tumbling down
    You're out of time, make your move
    Live or die while the fuse is lit and there's no turning back
    Kiss your perfect day goodbye
    Because the world is on fire
    Tuck your innocence goodnight
    You sold your friends like guns for hire
    Go play with your blocks
    And now you'll pay when these walls come tumbling down
    Oh, they're tumbling down
    Resting on a knife, you heavy souls
    With all this weight buckling down on you now
    Don't you drown and float away
    Not a good time to lose control
    Right as your marionettes cut their strings and run away
    You're out of time, make your move
    Live or die while the fuse is lit and there's no turning back
    Kiss your perfect day goodbye
    Because the world is on fire
    Tuck your innocence goodnight

    Jinx lifting the blue smoke torch was for me my favourite scene in the show. Goosebums everytime I remember the ghost of her childhood dead friends.
    This song has a meaning for me I cannot decipher, but I think is the lost of the innocence of the childhood. The original song is perfect, but this version is as perfect as the original, with the addition that if you close your eyes you can imagine Jinx singing it, which makes it even sadder. Thank you for this version
