And here we are... the FINAL final episode of Arcane. I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about the ending. What about all of you?

Regardless, I've had an unbelievably good time watching this show and bringing you all along for it. I can't wait to start Avatar, Firefly and.... The Hobbit! So many good things to come and I hope you stick around for them!

I heard the final episode was originally meant to be like an hour and a half, but they cut it down to 50 mins for a number of reasons. I wish we had a few more character moments like with Sevika, and at least some sort of nod to Isha. Also I don't think Jinx is dead but I'm too lazy to type out my ideas why😅 tl;dr Silco and Vander had mentioned to her about leaving Zaun/leaving everything behind, and in the first episode of Arcane she said she was gonna ride one of those airships. Overall I have the series at a solid 9.5/10🙂‍↕️ Loved it to death

Mixed feelings about the ending. Overall a great show, and I've watched since S1 came out, but the ending didn't feel totally satisfying to me. I think mostly because at it's core what I think the show did best was the relationships between Jinx/Vi/Ekko/Caitlyn/Isha etc, and Act 3 sort of heavily focused on the "save the world" storyline, without leaving enough time to end the other relationships in a satisfying way. Vi/Jinx both felt a bit like side characters in the last two episodes in particular, when they were always the core of the show. Season 2 also had more pacing issues IMO compared to Season 1 - still lots of great scenes, and Ep 7 was great, but act 3 was very crammed with everything happening in the last 2 episodes.

It is heavily hinted that Jinx is alive. First, of course, is the scene with Cait. She has doubts about it, we see her holding the remains of the grenade, and looking at the hexgates schematics showing us the air ducts. Second is a sneaky one, just at the start of the explosion there is one purple line going away, like the one we always see when Jinx uses her shimmer speed. It looks very intentional, and not a part of the explosion. And the third one, it is believed that the airship flying away is a reference to Powder's line from the first episode, how one day she will ride in one of them. It is also the exact same model of the ship. So people think Jinx is on that airship. And of course there is glitchy "The end", though, that one could be interpreted either way.

I think it's been confirmed that the team is already working on 3 new series/spin-offs. So I'm assuming (hoping) the kind of open endings and plot threads left might be returned to later on?

I personally feel like Act 3 of Season 2 was the weakest act in the series. Don't get me wrong, I think it was still really good, but it felt a little rushed to me. Watching it through a second time with your reactions made me appreciate it a little more I think. It's always hard to feel satisfied with show endings, especially when they leave things for potential spin offs, which I've seen people say are planned. Spoilers below: In case someone is reading comments without having watched it yet. Also, I read somewhere after I watched, if you look right before the explosion that killed Vander/Jinx, you see a purple dash. So that is thought to be Jinx using her shimmer speed to avoid the explosion. Add on that Caitlyn is holding the top of Jinx's little monkey bomb thing and she is looking at the vent/duct blueprints for the hexgate, they are indicating that Jinx is still alive potentially.

Well observed I didn't notice all this, but wouldn't that make sense if the show was ongoing? I have a hard time seeing the point since there won't be a season 3. They said their next project would be a new story.

I gave it a 9.5 too, it lost 0.5 in the second half of s2e9

In a recent interview (Necrit) Christian Linke didn't deny or confirm her death, so who knows what their plans are. With Jinx being outside of Piltover-Zaun, we might get a cameo in one of the shows they have in development (they want to explore Noxus, Ionia and Demacia), but probably not one of the main roles. Also, for Noxus Mel is an obvious connection, so we'll probably see her. Overall, it makes for an even more hopeful open ending.

kind of mixed opinions on the show (as someone who has been around since the show came out initially and who has a huge attachment to this show, its one of my biggest special interests)! i like the jinx is alive theory and im very pleased with how they tied up viktors and jayce's arc, but i wish it was just a little bit longer to ease the pacing. otherwise though this was so beautiful and i love this show so much

On top of all that. Jinx says in the beginning that she’s gonna ride in one of those blimp things one day and they show one riding off into the distance in the final scene. Idk if this has any significance, but the theme that plays at the bridge in the very first scene is also playing during that final scene.

Luke

As someone that plays league of legends i thought they did a great job at reaching their in game characters. Although they are just changing Viktor in game to match his arcane character. Honestly my biggest let down is that my favorite character Blitzcrank (a golem that viktor put hextech into) essentially got retcon'd out of existence. I enjoyed that show, but think the last two episodes are the worst giving me an unreasonable bad taste in my mouth.

Skellyp

just because a character didnt show up in arcane, doesnt mean they dont exist. there will be future stories, and im sure they will reture to piltover/zaun again. as for viktors charactor change from in the game, its no different than when they rework a champion or do a visual update.

Skellyp

Attack on Titan is another show that is extremely good. would love to see you react to that one day.

Didn’t notice this until just now, but when Ekko flies in and kicks the robots’ asses to get to Victor, he’s using one of the clock hands from the tower’s clock that Jinx’s blimp crashed into. So he’s beating Victor’s ass with his little time machine and with a literal clock hand 😂 Amazing.

They've already stated that they are making more stories, it's just that the story of Arcane itself is over. But there is A LOT of Runeterra left to explore, and the creators said that Hextech is still around, just the Hexcore is no longer around. And pretty much almost all of the champions you don't even see dying with pretty much the only confirmation being Kino. Like you don't see Jinx, Jayce, Viktor, Heimerdinger and Warwick truly die. Heimerdinger is a Yordle making him a spirit anyway and almost incapable of dying no matter what. And there was a lot of champions hinted in act 3 as well like Orianna(singed daughter) and some other ones especially from Noxus. So, I imagine the story is going to go for sure on.

Just call me Ambessa at this point because I am so anti magic after this lol. The arcane ruined literally everything! What a beautiful and tragic ending to such a great show.

R McBean

I could see how it could have benefited from another episode or two. They may have handicapped themselves with the 3 act 9 episode season structure they locked themselves into. Especially when one of the episodes of the third act was from a completely alternate timeline that forced a lot of things to be crammed into the final two episodes.

BoringGuy

I saw someone say when Ekko hugged Benzo “The little man in him got back home” and I am unwell.

Leon Hockenberger

that clock hand is actually is weapon in league of legends which makes it even cooler

I finally finished Acane again, this time watching along with you! lol. For your question at the end, I feel so empty not knowing what happened with Ekko and Jinx between him coming back and saving her and when they joined the battle. I want to know what they talked about and what made them bond and possibly fall in love with each other. The start the battle with matching paint on each other which knowing both of their characters that was a seriously intimate thing. I also wish I saw more of them in the AU. After rewatching this it really feels like either Ekko told the AU powder about him not being "her" Ekko or she realized it on her own. Especially with her not seeming to be surprised when he ask "Can we just pretend like its the first time?" seeing as how "her" Ekko and her are already dating in that AU.

Xhy

I heard a theory that they may ret-con Biltzcrank's creator to be Ekko. Ekko creating him using notes and blueprints he finds in Viktor and Jayce's lab.

I love this show, so I was very happy to hear your appreciation for it at the end (despite the emotional trauma). Thanks for a great reaction series! As to how I felt about the ending, I thought it was amazing. Would I have loved more episodes, or even another season? Of course. But so many stories don't get a satisfying ending because there's more money to be made (reboots....ugh). Even though it's short, Arcane is all the more precious for it.

Threebird

I love the show - especially the animation and music. I did feel that a couple characters like the Madardas and the rose didn't really need so much screen time. And that distracted from the main story of Powder, Vi, Vander, Silco too much. But I guess they wanted to set up the next series they are making..

Rocketboy

I'd even add in the art book jinx wrote all over the box "I LIVE" and "I'll be right back" inside the book
