Arcane League Of Legends Season 1 Act 2

Arcane League of Legends Act 2:  let’s start this review off with the second Act trailer so without further or do….here’s the trailer:

Heads up if this second Act review seems shorter…..its because compared to Act 1 there’s not as much going on as there was in Act 1…….anyways onto the review

So we start off with a time skip and now it’s something years later and we see that the entire city of Piltover has been upgraded and using magic…..anyways we see a blimp come in…carrying some sort of cargo that’s in barrels…..and as there being transported onto the blimp……a group of masked men come flying into the blimp on hover boards……yeah not gonna lie that is sick…..anyways the masked figures try stealing the cargo….but 2 of them fall into a hatch that leads them into the bottom floor of the blimp…..while there exploring down there in the dark they look back at the hatch and what they see is a spray painted purple monkey on the bottom of the hatch…..take a wild guess who it is. ….if yall guessed it was Jinx….then u be correct…….u win nothing…..lolo….so now they know Jinx is there….so they start looking for her in the dark…….they turn around because they hear a noise and they aim there flashlight into the dark…they see a swing…and its moving….it moves upwards and there’s words spray painted onto the bottom of it…and it says Boom…..and at that moment a bomb explodes….and smoke comes out of the hatch…..also Jinx appears out of the smoke…she just walks up and says uh hi…and she grabs 2 bombs from behind her and tosses it to 2 of the masked men…it attaches to them and knocks them for the blimp and explodes them…….oooooffff…anyways then one of the masked men run towards Jinx and fights her…but she knocks the mask of the masked person and underneath is a pink haired chick that looks similar to Vi….but isn’t her….so Jinx freezes and starts having flashes back to Vi….but she does shoot not Vi in the head…leaving the leader of the masked men to fly away on his hover board……after that we see Sevika is still alive but she has a robotic arm now…she comes up to Jinx and says u where supposed to protect the cargo…not destroy it………well I mean what did u expect….having a insane unstable person who only relies on shooting people or using bombs…..to protect fragile cargo…..seriously what did u think was gonna happen?…..thats like asking a toddler to take care or a vintage glass plate………lololo …..anyways so we now let’s go to Viktor and Jayce……..we see that Viktor is really ill….he’s dying….now I realized i didn’t specify what type of cripple he is…..he has a cane….there I’m sorry I forgot to mention that….so we see he’s not just a cripple……he didn’t get his leg injured….no for u see we do get an answer of sorts…as a kid where he grew up in Zaun……he would always play in and or near polluted water….idk why either…also yeah that definitely wouldn’t have helped his mental health……also as a kid one day he was playing with a toy boat he made…he had it flow down a river…it went into a cave…so he had to go retrieve it…and in the cave guess who he sees….a creature of sorts and who’s with the creature u may ask…..it’d Singed…..yeah Viktor met Singed when he was just a boy…….anyways Singed tells young Viktor that the creature is dying and he wants to keep it alive at any costs….Viktor said he wants to help and Singed says ok……I’ll get back to this in a bit……anyways back to present day…so wanna know how ill Viktor is….well he’s now pale….. is skinnier…..also coughs alot and sometimes coughs up blood………yikes…not good……so in this and next Arc Viktor is wanting to expand there research so he can use magic to help cure himself………understandable……and what he maybe doing might be pushing it…he’s experimenting around with the Hextech cube they made….yeah they made one I guess….he’s seeing if he can use its power to cure himself…yeah thats treading dangerous territories……..oh also as for Jayce…he’s become popular…everyone likes him….he’s not attending events….blah blah that kinda stuff….if u already can’t tell…the second Act is more focused of political stuff….and do u know what’s strange….I don’t mind it…yeah unlike the star wars prequels where I hated the political talk….I actually was invested in it….In this show…..also in game of Thrones….so thats telling me those 2 shows did political talking better then George Lucas ever could……oh right also the political talking in the clone wars interested me…and that wasn’t made by Lucas…it was made by Dave Filoni……so yeah I definitely think George Lucas doesn’t do political stuff correctly……anyways back to the show…….also Caitlyn becomes a enforcer herself….oh nice congrats……..ok skipping a bit Mel and the council also vote that Jayce should become the 7th council member….yeah things are looking up for him……ok now we get to my favorite part of this arc……so during one of Jayce speeches he is giving….Jinx decides to go bomb a building in Piltover….which lead to thr death of 8 enforcers……also Caitlyn single handedly say Jinx walk away in the distance so she could tell she did this…..oh if ur wondering why Jinx did this…well for u see her father Silco thinks she’s immature or not capable so she tries proving him wrong …..by doing this…also this plays as a distraction so she can go and grab one of the magic orbs……and bring it back to Silco…..huh nice plan…..anyways we see back at Silco hideout….and in Jinx room which is and get this a giant metal fan hovering over a massive hole…yeah thats here room…….good golly she’s crazy…..so we see her welding something while listening to a song from Legaue of Legends…the song is called get jinxed….and oh boy I find this song catchy….here’s the song…..in case ur wondering

https://youtu.be/KedDZiXoVTw

We see her welding something while she’s  dancing a little to the music…….also Silco is standing behind her yelling at her…..Jinx!!!……Jinx!!!……Jinx!!!……see she can’t hear him because she put the music on very very loud…….so he goes to the music player and slams his fist into it….which stops it….he yells at her for blowing up a building which lead to enforcers dying….he asks do u know what u have done….she says of course I do and she hands him the orb…..at that moment he stops yelling as if he’s like oh uhhhh huh…..now this scene confuses me….why would Silco get mad at Jinx for blowing up a building in Piltover….when his whole goal is to start a war against them….yeah if anyone else who watched this series could explain why Silco is mad because he got what he wanted in a way….plz by all means explain it to me….thanks…….ok so skipping a bit do I don’t mention every detail…..we see Caitlyn go down to Zuan…to a prison so she can speak to a prisoner…only issue…said prisoner is in a coma because another prisoner put him into a coma….and u wouldn’t be able to guess who it is…..thats correct it’s Vi….she’s been in jail for all these decades…….anyways Caitlyn asks her about Jinx and the monkey spray design she leaves behind…..Vi offers to help her if she can leave….so Caitlyn gets her out of prison with a fake release slip……they let her out and they go together to find out where Jinx is…….also Vi wants to find her sister so she can reunite with her……ok so back to Viktor….we see one of his colleagues who’s a female has a crush on him…she offers to walk back with him to his apartment but he turns her down and says I’m working late….ok either he’s turning her down so he can save her the misery and pain of him dying soon….that or he’s just clueless…..also Jayce brings down Heimerdinger down there to see a project there working on…but Heimerdinger tells them they need to get rid of this project  ..which is the Hextech cube thing…and his reasoning is because he’s seen what magic has done to civilization before…..and the horrors it’s done…….so he tells them to shut it down…..so of course Jayce goes tells his new girlfriend Mel….and u can guess what happens….next meeting Jayce says i think it’s time for us to give Heimerdinger a nice retirement…and they all agreed on it…….good job Jayce u have let power blind u in a way……hope ur happy…..also remember how earlier I mentioned how Viktor met Singed…when he was just a kid…well back to that…..we see that he later went back to the cave still when as a kid and he sees the same creature but this time it is screeching in pain and has blue ooz coming out of its eyes and mouth….he goes up and hugs it and Singed comes up and says he did this to the creature…which Viktor says u did this?…..and Singed said …I told u this creature needs to live on……yeah i forgot to mention from what I’ve learned from the internet Singed is basically a mad scientist who does horrific tests and experiments all for to figure out if he can prolong human life spam….heck there was a time in the lore apparently where he stitched 2 people together just to see if he can prolong said person’s life….yeah thats F****d up…..then we cut back to modern day and we see Viktor go to singed…..yeah he found him and he says I understand now…and we see Singed finally…he’s still alive he’s just burnt and is wearing a mask around his mouth…….he’s hiding away in the underground in his laboratory……anyways back to Vi and Caitlyn…….there going around Zuan…trying to find out where Jinx is…..they don’t really get anything….. but they do bump into Selvika they fight hand to hand….but Vi gets stabbed by her in the rib…..oooff……ok before i get to ahead of myself I want to mention that remember that character Marcus…well he’s working for Silco…still…….lovely I guess….and now he has a daughter…wow I bet she’d be ashamed of him if she found out the things he’s done……huh a corrupt cop…..yep that sounds about right……..also come to think of it alot of the things in this show is really close to reality…think about it…poverty……corruption…..manipulation………politics…..I just realized that….anyways so since vi got stabbed she’s bleeding out so they of course run because why not….they find themselves way down in the lower depths of Zaun….Vi starts becoming dizzy because u know loosing blood…so Caitlyn has her lie down while she finds help..and of course a random hooded hobo comes up to her….takes her to a shadey…..which….who steers her up a brew of some sort that can heal someone….because u know….magic I guess …so she gives it to Vi….and it heals her……..thats nice…..anyways Jinx is there…she’s way above them on a platform….so at this moment she pulls out a flare of sorts that Vi gave her decades ago….she said to her then….wherever u are no matter how far away…light it up and I promise I’ll be there…..so she lights it up….she basically wanting Vi to come back into her life…..awww…..anyways silco and his goons show up because Selvika tells him Vi is still alive……..uhhhh yeah……..also Jinx tied her up to Silcos ceiling do he knew she did that……anyways he came to kill Vi….but of course both Caitlyn and vi are smart and knock the giant beams around tbem down onto Silcos men…and they both escape while Silco getting out of the rubble…and screaming of course because he baddie…….lololo….also Vi sees Jinx having the flare in her hand…and as soon as it goes out Jinx thinks vi isn’t gonna show up so she gets mad…but at that moment vi shows up and hugs her…..of course Jinx is happy to see her but since she’s looney she has no idea if this is a hallucination or if she’s real….but Vi confirms this is real…so Jinx allows her to hug her….but then Caitlyn comes up and says wait Jinx is ur sister….and Jinx seems mad to see Caitlyn because she’s an enforcer …but she gets even more mad when she finds out and sees that Vi become friends of sorts with Caitlyn….yikes…so Jinx breaks down starts hearing voices in her head and speaking out loud to them…telling the voices to shut up and saying to Vi hehehehe ur lying to me of course u r….ur not here for me ur here to arrest me….and to think I needed u…….ohhh ok yeah she’s really broken….but I mean I don’t blame her….think about it as a kid she saw her dead parents right in front of her….her siblings made fun of her for her child hood…then she accidentally killed her father and 2 brothers….then her sister leaves her behind…..and unknowingly left her to Silco…..also being raised by Silco probably didn’t help….so yeah I’d say that’s gonna do a fair share of damage to her brain….anyways Vi walks up to her while she’s holding a machine gun to them…vi says shoot me if u want but I’m not leaving u again I’m here for u…at that moment the masked men come In and start attacking them…..vi and Jinx fight back to back against them…but Vi sees Jinx brutally killing these men…with this joyful smile on her face….which is freaking Vi out because this isn’t the Powder she remembers…….yeah…who said this show was happy…I sure as heck didn’t……at that moment one of the masked me knock Vi down and is about to kill her but there leader says no take her with us…..and the enforcer…so they do…they throw a smoke bomb on the floor to blind Jinx…and as soon as the smoke cleared up…they have vanished…..leaving Jinx there alone…again…to just scream…and thats the end of Act 2…..I honestly still love this shoe though this Act is a little slower then the first 1…..doesn’t mean it’s bad ……I just prefer Act 1 over this Act……overalls very entertaining….

I am gonna give this Act a SOLID 9/10…..tune in next time when I release the review on the last Arc of this show…..trust me its worth it.
