🕑 Added 2024-11-21 17:00:08 +0000 UTCIt's time for another episode of Arcane! I have a feeling I'll be in desperate need of tissues from here on out...
As always, thank you for your support here on Patreon. Until the next one, take care and stay golden :)
P.S. Yes...I am an idiot and did realize immediately after watching this that "Violet" is "Vi"...don't know what was happening with my brain there haha

I mean they called her Violet in the beginning of the show, and everyone calls her "Vi" which would obviously be a nickname and not her full name. It just seemed like the most obvious and not subtle connection that I cannot believe she missed that, maybe she was crying too much to think clearly lol. Who else would that woman be? would be absurd to just have a random woman pregnant with a random unimportant girl to the story.

"Am I supposed to know who Violet is" Natalie sheesh that's one of the biggest things to go over your head that I've seen lmao. Violet is Vi... that's Vi and Jinx's mother who we saw dead in ep 1. She also has purple hair, while Vi and Jinx have red and blue hair.

I just LOVE how you wanted to explain something but can't resist to sing along with the intro song! HAHAHA

This is one of, if not my favorite episode of the show! I appreciate how you understand the mental space that Vi is in. The hug broke me, it's the hardest the show has ever made me cry. They've been through so much, and the song is both them asking, what happened to us, and also the fans at the writers saying, 'what have you done to us!?'

This might help: Violet is the character you called "VEE" all 1st season, Nat!
Mastervodo
Have not seen one yet.

Hi all, does anyone know if there is a Gold Standard live stream this week? I see Nat has posted a YouTube stream for later today to play The Walking Dead..
Casey Strange
Yeah and Powder called her Violet when they had their fight in the first season. She cried Violet when Vi hit her and was walking away before Marcus took her. Not many times people used her full name so it's understandable it wasn't caught. Nat would have really been in a puddle
Jay
Nat's struggles with the name Vi ... continue
Daniel McGuinness
Not Doctor Reveck being the necromancy version of Mr Freeze ๐ญ
MJ Eid
real fans know. Plus people who actually "watch" the show. So many details are added into the animation.
Boomcity
Goddamn this show is so good.
MJ Eid
Guys itโs for the best she didnโt remember who violet is. She woulda cried herself to death.
MJ Eid
lol I couldnโt stop crying laughing

Here's a clip of the scene from season 1: https://youtu.be/zC8EeNLnvp4?si=o-3Puy2VztVxGBRK

The cup, straw, and orange juice Vander gives Felicia is the same cup, straw, and orange juice that Vander gives Powder in season 1 episode 2. It's the scene where Vander realizes Vi is going to turn herself in to the enforcers. The same exact song is playing on the jukebox! The cup Powder uses is all scuffed up, since it's been around for years. At some point she drew a starry scene on the cup, using the scuff marks as the centers of stars. Clearly, she loves that cup. This is one of my favorite parallels thus far, and hardly anyone notices it.

It's my favorite as well. The flashback to Silco, Vander, and Felicia as well as the hug were so moving.

Yes: first act was beautiful, but felt like mostly fighting. Second act is still a lot of fighting, but more story and backstory! All the feels for sure
Simon Bauer
Nat... (Vi)olet??? facepalm***
Baggie Mark
What a show!! But I think this show may ruin other animated shows for me as I cannot see how they will match up to this show.. Amazing animation and amazing story โค๏ธ
Rich House
I can only recall Powder calling her Violet at the end of S1E3, albeit one of the more memorable scenes. Definitely isn't mentioned before that, and not sure anyone mentions it after that
Hori Zon
always my fav reactor Im glad arcane made me get on your patreon. I always miss details in my first watch it feels great to rewatch with you
Mastervodo
Jayce looks like he's been playing Jumanji for a decade and just escaped the game!
Cuttlefish
Vander did once or twice if I recall.
Andy
Jayce really did get a sexy glow-up huh? loool
Hori Zon
Cant blame the violet vi miss litteraly no one called her like that in the entire show lmao
Mastervodo
How did you like the Fast and the Furious scene this episode, Nataretto? :)
Boomcity
Ugh, I have to wait till I get home from work tonight. ๐ญ
Mastervodo
Yay! This is my favorite episode so far this season! Hey there Jayce! Have you lost weight? You seem a little... different.

Happy Thursday Nat. You're rant yesterday was fully justified. You had a lot going on. We are here as your therapy. Let it all out ๐ After yesterday's crazy final reveal, it's time find out what happens next... Damn, what a family reunion Nat. I loved Vi repeating Jinx's line "Hes your dad too" ๐ญ Look forward to tomorrow's reaction ๐
