The song Swans (both normal and extended version) by Unkle Bob describes Satosugu. Like
"And you're never coming home again"
SUGURU??
"I see you, you see me , differently"
AHHHH STOPPPP
"You tell me that you love me, but you never wanna see me again"
HELLO???
"I'm leaving, don't try to make me stay"
WHAT DO YOU MEAN
They follow me everywhere I can't anymore. I can definitely go into an analysis of how it fits them.
Sidenote, this song is a new favourite of mine, and now I'll associate it with them nowww.
i wish people would stfu about how much caitlyn sucks or how vi deserved better, did we even watch the same show?
caitlyn knows she doesnt deserve vi and is making steps to be worthy of her
and vi is finally letting go of the pressures she has put on herself and finally letting herself be happy
.
CRYING at Galinda performing the most flamboyant like...tropical bird mating dance the world has ever seen
Meanwhile poor Elphaba, who has never experienced flirting with ANYONE before, let alone the world's most flamboyant closeted lesbian tropical bird, has no idea what the hell she's looking at and is just like ??????
Still, points for at least attempting to match Galinda's freak
Truly the most magnificent sapphic fail-flirt scene of all time.
I'm lowk glad I chose jjk for my first anime (excluding all the movies I've watched and season 1 of mha in 2020). Because now I'm invincible. I've experienced losing the mc AND all my faves dying (I've seen the manga spoilers). Now, I'm mentally prepared for all the potential plottwists ahead of me.
The main issue with season 2 and the writers condensing 4 more seasons into 1 is they lost the plot.
The 1st season introduced Zaun and Piltover and the class divide between it.
Vi and Jinxs story begins as a result of It. Jinx literally says herself the cycle of death began long before her and vi, long before silco and Vander.
In the alternate universe it's so good not only because hextech was never invented but also because Heimerdinger was there for over 1000 days(can't remember the exact amount) before ekko even got there. And I'm assuming after spending time in the undercity he truly saw the changes he needed to make and used that time to make those changes. However the problem with Heimerdinger is that he was content to stay there and ultimately forsake his original world. Which just proves to us he's perpetuating the ongoing cycle of selfishness from the council. Which is unfortunately a characteristic of oppressors. Selfishness and a willing to forsake a people in order to uplift and protect their own. And that will always be what seperates Zaunites from those who live in Piltover. Ekko couldn't stay there it was too selfish to forget about the problems of his own world and steal the life of that reality's Ekko.
The main conflict of season 2 ends up being Viktors eugenics story and Ambessas grasp for power. When that ends we see Piltover rebuilding with Sevika taking a council members chair. While that is nice, what should have happened is the arcane arc and we had another season to explore the problems between Zaun and Piltover being fixed and Zaun becoming a thriving part of Piltover.
me ever since watching wicked:

LALALALA LA LA LAAAAAAAA YOURE GONNA BE POPULAR
THERES A STRANGE EXHILARATION IN SUCH TOTAL DETESTATION
SPOILERS FOR ACT 3
the parallels between powder and jinx really kill me
In every universe she carries her sister with her. For example in the alternate reality she literally has a pink streak in her hair. When she put on make up it was blue and pink and purple (her mother had purple hair too im gna sob) her nails are entirely pink (I couldn’t get a screenshot of it.) she lives the “I’m always with you even if we’re worlds apart)
In the reality we know she also always carries her sister with her. I saw a TikTok analysing their hair and tldr they said it’s likely jinx hasn’t cut her hair since her and vi split apart. And she paints her nails both pink and blue which are their respective colours. Even if she stayed powder her mindset towards family is still the same and it kills me I can’t put it into better words omg.
"Mel is a bad person she manipulated jayce"
Ekko, at the unripe age of 10/11, scammed him, and Jayce still didn't make the connection years later when meeting Ekko again.
ALSO, SO WHAT? She is a politician. That is what they do. They manipulate people to achieve their own agenda. Luckily, the outcome was mutually beneficial for both of them. It was mutually beneficial. Meaning it was not a parasitic relationship like ambassa and cait, for example.
Jayces whole characterisation is that he is an idealistic genius. Yes, he's intelligent but in the field of science. He had not spent his life navigating the realm of politics like Mel had. He is a gullible person. That is what they showed us in the very first episode when ekko scams him.
Mel manipulated jayce yes HOWEVER that does not mean the relationship was manipulation, too. TWO THINGS CAN BE TRUE AT ONCE.
Also, most likely, if Jayce failed again, Mel would also be risking a lot. She would most likely lose credibility among the council and even lose her position as Counciller. Granted, she is intelligent and thought the reward outweighed the but still. She was also risking her position by backing him.
That's all i gotta say. I'm so tired of the Mel hate the only valid hate against her is her not doing anything to help Zaun.
Jinx's traces of make up after she has cried looks like Vi's face tattoo but backwards and they both have it in their left cheek.
Besides, her final look and outfit resembles her sister's in S1 and S2. The bandages covering her chest and the new hairstyle with the shaved undercut on the same side is also similar to Vi's.
After all it seems like Vi and Powder cannot coexist in the same timeline or dimension. When Powder lives, Violet doesn't. When Vi lives, Jinx decides not to. "Always with you, sis".
The parallels, the attention to detail and the design for each character in Arcane is insane. I can't believe this amazing series is over. I'm gonna miss these sisters like they were my relatives.
