Jinx was the unhinged female villain I've waited my whole life to see. She had such a PERFECT negative character arc and her sister Vi is the butch lesbian we ALL deserve! (Of course the gendies are all headcanoning her as a trans man but what ya gonna do?)
Love the series. The animation is brilliant!
An Arcane fan and a Swiftie, my my!
It's probably the most visually impressive show I've ever seen. I can't wait for season 2, there are so many interesting directions it could go in. I wonder if they'll try and redeem Jinx, but I doubt so because they'd have to retcon her character severely in LoL for it to work. Also given the thing she deals in, redeeming her realistically sounds like a tall order.
Love it! Vi is amazing, and I love Jinx so much!
What are everyone's thoughts on
Predictions from someone who doesn't know shit about LoL, so no spoilers:
Honestly I love Jinx and S*lco's dynamic. I love how they created a twisted version of Vi and Vander's wholesome bond but despite it all at its core is a genuine love for each other. (Also part of me ships them but only in a guilty pleasure way)
Same, honestly. I don't ship them, but I do headcanon a very one-sided crush from Jinx on Silco. But I get it. It's one of those fictional relationships where the man will do anything for the woman and yet not be a boring sycophant.
I enjoyed the series but I didn't like Jinx, they didn't really do a good representation of mental illness at all- they seem to want her to be just a crazy" in some seems and acting based on trauma in the others.....Also Vi isn't a lesbian....its just kind of a reach to say this was an attempt at any positive gay representation , just because she is friends-ish with Cathrin [who she tries to prostitute , just so she can get away from her...yeah soft human trafficking isn't a positive trait at all] If your confused the alien shaped woman Vi went to see after getting out of jail is a Brothel owner.
Never played the video game but the TV series is amazing.
