It's ironic that you said this episode is the 'best and worst' because that is literally what that emotion inducing French song is saying. Stromae and Pomme - Me meillure ennemie/ My Best Enemy Jinx and Ekko. I'm going to cry now 🤧
The dancing scene is one of the best things i've ever seen in a show or movie. And the song ''Ma meilleure ennemie'' is such a masterpiece. Probably one of the best songs i've heart in years. Episode 7 made me feel so many different emotions. Also hearing Stromae after such a long time, was crazy too.
It’s crazy how amazing this episode is. Usually when shows cut away from a huge plot moment to do a side mission episode, it murders the pacing and takes you out of the moment. Instead, they dropped what is easily my favorite episode of the whole show. The way I ugly cried during the entire dance sequence ughhhhhhh Ekko asking her if they could pretend like it’s the first time will never not make me bawl uncontrollably
This episode is a blast. “What could have been” as a single episode. I love how empathetic you are. That's a great, strong character trait. You don't need makeup either, because you don't have to hide. I'm already really looking forward to your other reactions :)
You don't need the makeup. You look great without it, and we can all agree that we appreciate your genuine reactions and self. There are streamers out there that have so many layers of makeup on that they hold back their own real selves and expressions not to ruin their "image." Makes things artificial. You've been the opposite of that.
this is definitely my favorite episode of the season, it's so beautiful 🥺🥰 I loved seeing Ekko and Powder (Jinx) so happy together 💞💚💙they are so cute , at least in that universe they got their happy ending , and that song ma meilleure ennemie is perfect 😍 this episode made me feel such a magical feeling, happy and sad at the same time
I believe Powder saw the danger of the stones and Hextech after Vi's death and purposely hid them from the rest of the world to protect it. At least that's my theory.
The lyrics for that song by Stromae and Pomme : th-cam.com/video/ll8ThFiR1tk/w-d-xo.html Je pleure, tu pleures, tout le monde pleure. I hate it here. 🥲 Looking forward to the next episode!
The reveal of Powder having the stones, means that shes the one who saved her world. After the stones killed her sister, her genius understood the danger. So she hid them, and Jayce didn't have any to invent hextech. Nobody did. Powder was the secret hero of their world.
No... if she understood the danger, she wouldn't be keeping them in a loose sack some drawer that she frequents. Jayce didn't invent Hextech here because he was banished from Piltover and/or rotting in Stillwater because his researched resulted in a fatality instead of just property damage. That or he was just straight up killed in the blast.
@GerblerM doesnt matter what happened to Jayce. Nobody would because Powder had them and nobody knew what they were. She kept them in that drawer because of their significance to Vi's death. Hidden in plain sight as well. From a writing perspective, the point of showing them at all was to show that powder had them and by extension saved the world from becoming what Jayce was stuck in. There isnt much interpretation to that reveal. She knew the danger of them so much that she didnt even tell Ekko she had any.
@@Brutalhonesty11 It actually DOES matter what happened to Jayce because he was the one who knew how to produce/acquire the hextech crystals. The location of the crystals doesn't matter at all, it's Jayce that matters. In the OC timeline, he doesn't give a shit about them, all he cares about is his research. At the end of the day, without his specific and unique knowledge, they're just rocks that can explode, no different than a particularly reactive lump of C4. Yeah, I know why she put them in the drawer, they're sentimental, that's MY argument, you're the one trying to make the claim that her genius insight understood the power and danger of the stones, yet is keeping them loose in a drawer for some reason. It's about as genius as keeping a glass of nitroglycerine on your nightstand. No, Jinx did not understand their potential or even their danger. Even if we ignore the inferences we can make like her storing what is effectively an armed landmine loose in a drawer, we know she didn't understand them because we can look to the Jinx in our timeline: she didn't make the connection that it was the stones that blew up the building until she had a nervous breakdown and almost exploded herself by throwing them on the ground. EVEN THEN, she would have no way to know that hex gemstones are magic and could be used to end the world. The only thing they've done in that timeline is explode. The shot to reveal that she kept the gemstones is to show that she is/was oblivious to the nature of the stones, though now that Ekko has shown her how they work, she's may tinker with them. It's supposed to be an "oh fuck" moment, leading us to wonder: will Jinx leave well enough alone, or did Ekko just inadvertently doom this reality by piquing Jinx's curiosity in Hextech. TL;DR Jinx didn't save anything because A. the inciting factor is Jayce, not the stones, and B. She would have no way of knowing that they could end the world.

Stromae and Pomme - Me meillure ennemie/ My Best Enemy
Jinx and Ekko. I'm going to cry now 🤧
best moment in s1: ekko vs jinx
best moment in s2: ekko and jinx
arcane is truly something special

Jayce had the strength to fight through Hell to get back.
Ekko had the will to leave Heaven behind to get back.
They're both heroes. A hero would sacrifice a loved one to save the world. A villain would sacrifice the world for a loved one.

Its crazy how this is the most hopeful episode and yet its the episode that made me cry the most.

like vander say' girl you have a good heart don't ever lose it.
Just finished your episode 6 reaction I m on timing :)
The best episode, no doubt.
Heime is not dead... He is the Yordel which is like immortal . Maybe you would see him by somehow in the other season
♥ he gave up everything to help everyone else
I believe Powder saw the danger of the stones and Hextech after Vi's death and purposely hid them from the rest of the world to protect it. At least that's my theory.
I agree, and Jayce was banished. Powder also never had the desire to create magic.

@@GerblerM Was just about to type something similar. And if Cait was inured or killed he defiantly would be in Stillwater

@GerblerM good points.
It's weird that this episode hits the hardest.

Himerdinger is a Yordel so no worries when they "die" they just respawn back to their homeland
Considering Arcane changes established lore we currently don't know what happens when yordles die so Heimer could very much be gone forever.
@@scoot3984 Well LoL lore has been updated to included changes based on Arcane so what does the current lore say about Yordels?
