#arcane parallel

[q8qwertyuiop8p]

Both looking at their betrayer too

[rosebittenapple]

hello so hm I found a new parallel and it's making me insane, thank you

(her new found acceptance, or her sister

power, or his daughter

their lifelong dreams or their family)

[scisetforever]

alone again.

[windwenn]

‘You were my new dream’ or however the fuck that scene went

[bi-for-vi]

I don’t see anybody talking about this, but it hurt my heart

[your-senpaaaai]

just realised yet another one parallel in arcane

what caught my attention is this moment where jinx plays a little makeover with isha and dyes her hair

jinx wishes she had moments like this with her sister and in the next episode we see her painting her face to look almost the same as vi’s tattoo (ofc the writing itself is more in jinx’s style but still)

she’s just a girl who wanted to be like her older sis when she was little – the same way isha now wants to be like jinx

DONT TALK TO ME MY HEART IS BROKEN

[pheracy]

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.

ARCANE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS S1EP1 ↔ S2EP9 (2021-2024) ↳ "I think the cycle only ends when you find the will to walk away."

[infinitelystrangemachinex]

The stewards of the old world are always keen to give you a glimpse of their might... According to legend, the ancients built specialized chambers to seal away false prophets.

The Arcane is waking up.

[mercutio-the-velaryon]

Mel and Viktor being drawn to each other but repelling each other at the same time... Ughhh you know I critique the fuck out of the writing sometimes but someone COOKED HERE

[q8qwertyuiop8p]

Like father, like daughter

I just woke up and realized something.

In the script on ep 9, Silco was supposed to wipe Jinx's tear.

But what I realized just now, is that it was supposed to be a parallel with ep 6.

It's literally the same angle, and we know how Arcane is full of parallels.

And it clearly shows a big, big change in Jinx's mind. Because that means that even in her head Silco becomes the person who truly supports her, who truly loves her, the person she will fight for until her last breath, and if I may go a little too far maybe, the person she'll try to see again no matter what that means. (Taking his place just to have a glimpse of him ?) Anyways, this clearly shows who she follows from now on and how she seems both Vi and Silco, who in EP 9 were fighting to make each other the villain in jinx's head, and so to be the 'good person' in her eyes.

She chose her side, and it's really emphasized by this parallel.

oh the jayce caitlyn parallels need to be STUDIED.

jayce, who was initially as ignorant and unknowing as all topsiders being manipulated into creating the downfall of the undercity, only to learn and realise that zaunites deserve to live just as much as topsiders do.

caitlyn, who was initially as ignorant and unknowing as all topsiders being shown the beauty of the undercity and thinking zaunites deserve to live just as topsiders do only to be manipulated and used to create the downfall of the undercity.

ooooh how their arcs are so similar and cursed.

[molinaesque]

But I got something going now. A friend. And I don't wanna mess it up. Maybe that's what I was like for you.

I’m going feral over how Mel and Viktor’s parallels with eachother are rooted in magic. Both saw magic as their salvation and their prayers.

Mel is born with magic whereas Viktor sought it artificially. Mel is from privilege and born in wealth. She could see the sky as easily it was to breathe. She grew up in a culture that emphasized on physical strength. Viktor was born in poverty and Zaun’s inability to breathe set his life with a countdown. Zaun also valued adaptability and intellect instead. Mel and Viktor casted aside the mentalities set upon them by their mentors to fight for their own.

Both desired and dreamed to create their own paths with their own ambitions. Both saw and used Jayce as their way to do so.

guys maybe im going crazy and starting to overanalyse everything in arcane BUT LISTEN

one thing I kept noticing in s2ep7 (which I rewatched an insane amount of times) is how different powder's mimics are from jinx's

like even when her expressions are pretty calm and she's not smiling ear to ear she has SMILE LINES !!!! I've watched arcane a bunch of times and never noted out the same for jinx. yes we see her screaming/crying etc and her mimics are obviously expressive in those moments but when she's not experiencing some crazy shit her face is just kinda blank ??

a lot of people have already said how powder is taller, has different physics and healthier skin tone and I think her expressions is another thing that shows how much her and jinx's lives are not alike

she has a ton of reasons to smile every day while we've barely seen jinx do it :(((( powder is happy and it's literally marked on her face :((((
