This is a Marcus Smith love account and an Alexander Zverev hate account btw
(Also a Nadal, Rand Al'Thor, Vi+ Caitlyn+Jinx + Mel, Edelgard love account and an AI art hate account)

Did anyone genuinely not realize that?
That the song "Golden" couldn't work, because it was a facade that hid cracks and insecurities, and "Takedown" was born in spite and hypocrisy, but "What It Sounds Like" was vulnerable, sincere and embraced flaws?
i need more people to know that the reason the honmoon isn’t golden at the end of the movie isn’t because huntrix didn’t succeed in turning it gold but because the golden honmoon was flawed & built on shame so rumi aimed to make a whole new one built on acceptance…

She's the most interesting character in the Season by far

I hate to break it to people but the entire premise of the Lion King relies on the anthropomorphisation of the animals. The plot doesn't work if Lions act like Lions. And the tragedy of that story is inherently person -based, so if you strip human emotion, it doesn't work

People fixating on this as a sign that the Gray usage (obviously specifically by Cait, nobody seems to care about the several other times it was used) is causing these changes and killing people:
That's really not how exposure to a toxin works

The research conducted by a Piltover scientist focuses on the impact of Grey on health.

"Jayce would hit that"
Jayce would hit you in the crotch until it put your apparent main brain there into a coma and you could think normally like an actual adult and thus repent for your behaviour, just for the mere insinuation

Season 2 /the Show isn't perfect but a lot of the criticism on here is because 1) you expected it to be something it was never trying to be 2) you've overprojected real life investment inappropriately 3) you've missed a LOT of the show
Overall, most of the world loved it

She really isn't framed that way, she's not meant to be, she herself EXPLICITLY STATES THIS and your inability to pick that up has massively skewed the way you interpret both her and the overall story and is at least somewhat a failure on your part
caitlyn is being framed as having undergone a zuko-style redemption arc, yet she's not even close to achieving a real atonement. also saying fans should focus on micro-expressions is a weak excuse to cover up the lack of storytelling. sadly, s2 sucked for most parts

God I can't believe the writers of Arcane deleted that scene where Caitlyn goes back in time, kills Vi and Jinx's birth parents, forced Silco to betray Vander, framed Vi, killed literally everyone in Zaun, and kicked a puppy.

It speaks volumes that in the USA people genuinely think that *being killed* (unambiguously what happened, as opposed to legal terminology like "murder") can justly be one of those repercussions
That's hard to get our heads around over here

1) I think they might want to re-evaluate their opinion of what is "constructive feedback". Just because feedback is patronising doesn't make it constructive
2) lol if they think they are going to win a slander (or indeed in this case libel) case based on this...

Apparently Caitlyn's crimes now include having an English (ish) accent and that somehow inherently oppressing the character with a Scottish accent who was sleeping with her to literally spy on her and manipulate her, or at least planned to.

There is not a single negative thing Caitlyn has done in Arcane that Silco has not done to a higher degree for a more selfish reason, and he's a fully grown adult

If Arcane kills off AI animation as an idea, it will have been the best show of all time
”Arcane” might just be the most important media of the modern years
This series alone has inspired so many artists and upcoming artists to actually go out there and make stuff
It’s hard to actually realize the value and the impact of this show and what it’ll do for the future generations
It’s unbelievable Arcane even exists in this day and age BUT I KNOW we need more shows like it
Keep making amazing stuff people, maybe you will be part of the next ”Arcane” inspiring others in the future.

That's not really the point of Arcane, and, in classic inappropriate reference for this kind of poster, comparing to `Pocohontas, based on real life terrible events, is pretty gross
When they try to spin the conflict as "both sides were just as bad", even though one side is objectively the victim and the other is the oppressor who is 100% in the wrong.

Got rescued from Stillwater after 7 years, the person rescuing her is the hottest girl she's ever seen, wants to take down Silco (even if not aware who he is yet), tags along to help, saves her several times and then turns out to be into girls?

Cait holding onto the gun, as a barrier, here is a deliberate contrast to her giving up her gun in S1 for Vi, and letting Vi keep and use her gun to stay safe in S2E6

#CaitVi S2E8 bit that I think gets missed in the discourse
Vi's opening words to Cait in that cell are:
Vi: I really believed she'd help... (I was an idiot to trust her)
This tells us that she was still aiming to have Cait and Jinx together if possible imo
1/2

I actually want to make a positive point on this scene/ discussion:
I think that, as well as seeing Cait coming through to try to help Vander, seeing how closely Cait watches Vi's back & takes care of her here is instrumental for Jinx realizing she can trust Vi in Cait's hands
3

It's also implied that Mel and Cait didn't pre-plan this at all.
They just fucking synched up and wordlessly agreed on a plan that would work, they fight in tandem extraordinarily well and just observe exactly what each needs to do

#arcane if there's one scene that it's implied they made and cut, that I really wish they'd kept, it's the "Caitlyn sobbing just after the hitting Vi scene"
Because I really think it would shift perceptions about how Cait felt about it though not what she did

I agree, but also to add she was less angry in Act 3 because by the end of Ep 6 she found out that Cait did follow through (and that Ambessa revealed that Cait was completely hung up on her still, and how much Ambessa was manipulating her).

Caitlyn loses a parent, pushes away Vi, gains a toxic female figure in her life, spirals
Jinx loses a toxic father figure, gains a healing female figure, seeks out Vi, heals
But also, just the straight swap of Silco for no Silco helps

Pretty in depth testing from her doctor to include a needle joint aspiration and a muscle biopsy and then to run both for these specific viral PCRs with no precedent.
Also weird that HIV decided to go hide in her muscles rather than in her T Cells!

Or : Cait also died and that is another reason things were better (Piltover taking the death of the Kirraman child very very seriously)
And so like Vik and Jayce, they are fated to share a destiny in every timeline

The blatant homophobia is awful
But I'm also pissed off that his response to "your opinion" was to say "I don't like"
Dude. That's literally an opinion. Liking or not liking is inherently an opinion.

"I never would have done bad things in Cait's position"
Mate, you abuse fans of a fictional character and can neither forgive nor empathise with said fictional character whose actions were explained in depth, I don't believe you'd forgive your kidnapper/mother's murderer

Just gonna say, Caitlyn must have been loving this bit
She's flirting with hot women as part of the job, it's exciting undercover but also they are flirting back *and they don't know who she is*
They aren't flirting because she's a Kiramman
That must be a first for her
Caitlyn definitely knows she’s hot, so why did her reaction to Vi’s praise seem surprised? I don’t get it.

My take on #CaitlynKiramman and redemption (and why she doesn't have a Redemption Arc and in fact shouldn't, but not that she's an inherently bad person) in #Arcane
I wanna talk a bit about whether redemption is real, whether redemption arcs are what we really want here, and redemption Vs forgiveness. 1/?

You see a lot about Princess/Knight CaitVi, but that feels like it passifies (and pacifies) Caitlyn a bit.
What about 2 person Party style with Ranger/Fighter (archer) Cait(classic noble/royal running from their family duty backstory) and Paladin Vi

The fact that she's spoiled and gets pissed off when criticised/challenged but then reflects and comes to the right decision after reflection, and her privilege is layered ontop of kindness not spite makes her a *better* person and character, not a worse one
