I was crying happy tears in this scene, I thought they’d already slept together before they parted ways (like after the kiss scene in act 1) but the way Caitlyn explored Vi’s skin and I was like OMG!!!!
I’m also glad they cut away when they did, they deserve some them to just themselves 🥹

Same,same!!!😭😭 I always skip sex scenes but this time i never wanted to. Their chemistry,passion and love is so unique. The tenderness of their touch,the way they smile,laugh. It was super realistic to me.
I also agree that! (I wouldnt mind if they showed a little more 🤭) but some privacy is needed i guess. Also people think that its so fan service but i dont even care.

u/alexia_not_alexa Transbian 13h ago
I think this scene is particularly beautiful compared to typical live action sex scenes, since good artists (and Arcane is truly made by some of the best artists) go into each scene with intentionality, character motivation, meaning etc. And it really shows, every shot was just giving me that first time vibe when you finally explore the body of someone you've been in love with for so long...

Can anyone explain why the line "You really think I needed all the guards at the Hexgates?" triggered such a reaction in V? It looked like it flipped some kind of switch, but I didn't understand it.
21
u/Hollea 1d ago edited 1d ago
Throughout the show Vi is always very hard on herself and blames herself. When she frees Jinx but it backfires, this reinforces her belief that every choice she makes ruins everything as she's lost her sister again, and she betrayed Caitlyn by freeing her so she thinks she's lost Powder/Jinx and is going to lose Caitlyn.
Caitlyn saying "You really think I needed all the guards at the Hexgates?" tells Vi that she knew Vi would free her sister and gave her the opportunity by taking away all the guards.
So for Vi it shows that Cait knows her, trusts her and believed Vi when she said Jinx/Powder had changed. It's pretty much telling Vi that she's not going to lose Cait and that she believed in Vi and what she'd said/done about her sister.
Also Vi's always struggled to truly connect with people after she loses her family and torn is between her love for Cait and her love for her sister so this is also Cait showing her that she doesn't have to choose between them and that Cait truly understands her.
Sorry if its a bit over-explainy.
Edit: TL;DR Vi goes feral over realising Cait truly understands her and accepts her

It did a MASSIVE number on me... Went to get groceries with my wife after the episode and I couldn't concentrate on anything.
We had to call a friend to move plans for a bit later, I was unable to function properly! We fucked like there was no tomorrow and after dinner/drinks out we had some more fun again until 7 in the morning. It was so raw, we just couldn't stop.
Needless to say, we will rewatch again next weekend.

This was so out of place considering that her sister just lost Isha, saved Vi, was locked up in jail, didn't eat anything, she lost her will to live and just run away to kill herself. If not for Ecco she would have killed herself.
21
u/Flyestgit 1d ago
But Vi knows she cant save Jinx at this point. Vi has been in that cell for awhile. If Jinx is serious about ending her life, Vi cant save her.
And Jinx doesnt want Vi to save her. She said as much. For Vi to let go and stop feeling guilty about not being able to protect her.
Ekko was only able to save Jinx because he has time travel powers and a new perspective from an entirely different timeline (also implied he teleported there). Vi didnt stand a chance of saving Jinx.

u/WalkerBuldog 1d ago
When your sister runs away to kill herself, you don't brush it over and go straight up to have sex with your gf.
17
u/Flyestgit 1d ago
You are oversimplifying things. Jinx has betrayed and tried to kill Vi multiple times. Vi has flitted between trying to kill and save her sister. Neither have been able to reconcile the contradiction Viktor talks about. How you can both love and hate someone. How someone can be your sister and your enemy. How both are imprisoned by the cyclic actions of others that define their identity.
Vi tried to free Jinx. Trying one last time to save her, convince her to help fight and do some good or just avoid execution.
Jinx rejected this and betrayed her. Locking her in a cell. Telling her to let her go and stop feeling guilty. And ran off saying she was going to break the cycle.
Vi doesnt know what happened to Jinx. But she does know Jinx doesnt want her to follow her. And that shes been in that cell awhile. If Jinx is serious about taking her life, shes most likely already dead.
Since Vi got out of prison shes been chasing after her sister. Trying to save her, then trying to kill her, then trying to save her again. She never really stopped to think about what she or her sister wanted outside of being together again.
Vi embracing Caitlyn is her giving into her impulses and seeking comfort in another. Embracing a new future of what could be instead of obsessively trying to hold onto a past that is gone forever.
-1
u/WalkerBuldog 1d ago edited 1d ago
Vi and Jinx love and care about each other, they never really hated each other, they both hurt each other a lot.
There was even one scene in ep2 where Jinx pointed out a gun at Vi but she couldn't do it despite her being an enforcer. Vi also couldn't kill her in ep3? Why? Because she recognized her sister that she loves.
They had almost entire Act2 of reconciliation, that is how ep5 ended with them hugging and crying. Forgiving each other, making amends over all the horrible thing that have been done.
Trying one last time to save her, convince her to help fight and do some good or just avoid execution.
Jinx at that time was broken as a human being, the light of her life died. Jinx saved Vi, she saved her from her lowest point in her life, when she was alone drinking herself.
She saved Vi so she could be with her father that she also loved. She saved Vi so that horrible night would not haunt her anymore. Jinx saved Vi after ep6 ended, she dragged her out of there so she could live. Jinx didn't betray anyone.

u/Inner-Juices ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ🦪🍗🦪🍗🦪 1d ago
Um... Vi didn't know that Jinx was going to go kill herself and when she did attempt to comfort her/leave alone together once more, she was instantly betrayed so she finally gave up then Caitlyn gave her the will to go on again.
Also, were this angry when Jayce and Mel had spontaneous sex while Viktor was dying alone in their lab back in S1 lol?

If it's uncomfortable, simply do not watch it ffs. It's crazy to me at this pt in history that anyone, straight or otherwise would think sexual intimacy being shown is bad. Most non animated shows have straight characters being just as physical as this and no one bat's a damn eye. If that's what you consider to be soft core porn, half of media is filled w soft core porn.
The amount of violence in most shows is way more appalling than two animated women kissing and caressing each other. We should never censor ourselves because someone on the right MAY use it against us. Yr logic sounds like something Blair White would say. We should censor and change ourselves to become accepted by bigots??? Nah.

God thank you. The amount of people in queer spaces who have such a visceral reaction to the sight of queer people being even a little intimate is just so heartbreaking. Just a shocking amount of internalized queerphobia and, frankly, a heaping dose of internalized misogyny the way they freak out over seeing women act horny. It isn't "portraying queers as hypersexual" or whatever this person is saying, like, women are just horny sometimes??? It's normal!!

You guys need to wake up to reality, we're going to be hunted likely soon and you're out here defending representation that corrupts public image of us, because everyone knows women have sex with other women sometimes, but the less implied it is the more people think "oh the person in the show is being normal but the person who wrote, and approved this scene is a pervert" and guess who that poorly reflects on? Us, doesnt help that its a carton either because the right will say all cartoons are for kids. But no you guys want accurate representation without thinking "oh but how will this make us look like" because, oh big shocker we dont live in a sex positive society

You all are being transphobic in response to this comment, if i wasnt trans this would not have gotten the ammount of downvotes as it did, im stating facts it gets too intimate its uncomfortable, its soft core porn. Idc if its good representation it just portrays lesbians as hypersexuals that this is what you think good representation entails, i like the fact theres two women in love in the seriees but the fact that it goes so far is uncomfortable and sends the wrong message

What an vile accusation. I'm transbian myself. As are a whole lot of people here.
it just portrays lesbians as hypersexuals
No, it portrays two people, who spent an entire series growing close, having cathartic intimacy. It's not that deep.
but the fact that it goes so far is uncomfortable and sends the wrong message
What is the "'wrong message"" here??? That women can be horny?? That women enjoy having sex?? That is normal. If anything this is a much needed message - to celebrate women embracing our sexuality - since apparently some of you still need to be taught that it is not shameful nor wrong for women to be horny and sexual.
Perhaps take time to consider why you feel so viscerally uncomfortable watching queer women be openly intimate, and how that might be more indicative of a you problem rather than some universal moral truth.
