Arcane | S2 E6 | "The Message Hidden Within the Pattern" (UNEDITED)
🕑 Added 2025-05-08 17:55:10 +0000 UTCWhat...in....the....actual.........fuck..........just................happened!?!?!
Bro… Arcane just did something I didn’t think was even possible. This episode? Easily one of the most insane pieces of animated storytelling I’ve ever seen! That's no bullshit! It has so many notes of hope and despair. Felt like I was on a damn teeter totter. One small decision, one unpredictable moment… and suddenly, everything’s flipped upside down and I'm laying on my dog's bed in the fetal position.
One of the coolest things about this show though is the art! Unreal. Oh, and the music! FUCKING AMAZING! The way it pulls you into each character’s story is actually wild. I’m emotionally attached to ALL of them! Even the ones I hated at first. (Okay, maybe not Jayce… he’s still kinda a fuck up.)
And here’s the craziest part about all of this is I don’t even play League of Legends. Didn’t know a single character walking in. And yet this show hits different! It’s just next-level storytelling. No gamer knowledge required.
Fuck.
Love you all,
Alex

I'm having so much fun rewatching this show with Alex commentary. Probably my favorite show of all time. I love the LOL universe in general, played so much Jinx from when the character first released when I was addicted to the game back in the college days, but now it's just a little friendly TFT or watching this show again when I need a league world fix.

i would argue the big bad of this show the black rose (le blanc) itself is stronger

The good note in question:

I'm never NOT going to bawl my fucking eyes out at that scene. Isha (Baby Jinx) believed in Jinx's goodness so much that she was willing to sacrifice herself to save Jinx. It is just... DEVASTATING. On a more humorous note, after Caitlyn brought Vi to Ambessa, I couldn't help but think Alex: Caitlyn sucks! Vi: Yeah... that's one of the things I really love about her...
Sharnia Buford
Yup. That just happened.

"It's gonna end on a good note! 😃"

Viktor at his prime is not the most powerful character in League of Legends. At least not until they retcon the already existing lore. As of now That would go to : - Aurelion Sol a cosmic dragon who was here before life appeared in runeterra, he forges stars with his hands :) (most knowledgeable character in the game and considered most powerful) - Kindred (death's spirit, they come claim whoever has to die, when they come it's either you accept it or die refusing) - Bard - Zoe - Mordekaiser (actually mentionned in Arcane and will also be at least mentionned in the next show they're making) - Aatrox - Fiddlesticks There are few champions that can be named but if you only know Leeague's lore through Arcane, it'd take hours to explain who they are and why they're so strong (most of them come from space lol) League's Lore is wayyy bigger than just Piltover and Zaun, jinx/vi is just the surface, they chose a sister very touching story but beyond Piltover (and above the ground) there are cosmic dragon, monsters in another dimension, gods and demons out there

Alex: “we’re getting a good ending this episode? 😁” All of us arcane fans: a thousand yard staring at the screen
