Topic	RySenkari Ranks His Top 100 Television Episodes Of All Time
RySenkari 12/04/22 12:56:38 PM #31:	#79: The Monster You Created https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/6/2/4/AAAG8cAAD81o.jpg Show: Arcane Original airdate: November 20, 2021 "Wanna know a secret? Silco thinks he made Jinx, with all his rants and hard-won lessons. 'Excise your doubts, Jinx. Be what they fear, Jinx.' Like everything was the same as when Vander left him. But he didn't make Jinx. You did." I dragged my feet on watching Arcane for so long, even as friend after friend recommended it to me. I didn't think I'd get it, because I've never played League of Legends... but holy crap, was I wrong to wait as long as I did, and I'm glad I started watching. Every single episode of season 1 of Arcane is great, but it's the finale that stands above all the rest, the culmination of all the storylines that have been building up so far. Of course, it's the climactic tea party scene that gets all the attention, and it's fantastic, but there's so much more to love here, from Vi's fight with Sevika, to the conversations between Jayce and Viktor and Ambessa and Mel... so many conflicts, so much at stake with these amazing characters that have been slowly developed and fleshed out, setting up what I'm certain will be a fantastic second season... and then, yes, the tea party, in which Jinx makes all her grievances known, takes her revenge, makes Vi confront everything that's happened between them... there's so much going on just between Jinx, Vi, and Caitlyn that it's sometimes easy to forget that Silco's there too... ~~and then he's killed in fitting fashion, taking all those bullets from the monster he helped to create, only for a heartbroken Jinx to immediately regret what she's done.~~ We know what Vi wants, Vi wants her sister back but she also wants a life with Caitlyn, even if the two truly are "oil and water", but Jinx is torn in so many different directions, which is what makes this scene so tense, so heartbreaking, and even after Vi and Caitlyn are out of immediate danger.... well, there's that cliffhanger, one of the most painful cliffhangers ever, and maybe, just maybe, a point of no return for Jinx. Very few season finales have wrapped up so much while leaving so many new unanswered questions, and Arcane's first one puts an exclamation point on an amazing first season. --- This signature won't change until Chrono Trigger gets a re-release on a modern Nintendo console. <cite>RySenkari posted [p:969908439] in RySenkari ...
