suicide mention the arcane spoilers Why did they give all three of their suicidal characters successful suicide attempts If it just happens once that's one thing but all three of them Before anyone says anything no I do not think they literally meant to say this bit it's kind of. An unfortunate turn of events Arcane handled so many really heavy themes really well in s1 and then in s2 uh. Well the themes were there Case in point is season one was like oh let's subtly yet plainly imply it by having jayce and viktor step off a ledge and jinx k Let herself get blown up by one of her own grenades to blow up ekko to signify her lack of self preservation And then in season two she goes off to kill herself and vi is like damn alright I'm gonna fuck my girlfriend in her jail cell now And then jinx literally blows herself up like 10 times and then fall into a hole The jayvik double suicide wasn't as bad but it still adds to the numbers and man it sucks that a disabled man who fought so hard to live Just dies anyway Oh Isha kills herself also but it's a noble sacrifice which makes it fine I guess Heimerdinger also kind of does it. Listen I know tragedy writers love writing noble sacrifices but like can we calm down for a second It's possible for people to die for normal reasons also
