10 Best Moments In Netflix's Arcane

7. Vander's Rescue Gone Wrong

Having just discussed the debut of Jinx, let's take a step backwards and talk about the moment that would begin her descent into madness. If you want a tragic backstory to turn someone into an unhinged maniac believably, then accidentally killing your father figure and friends is a real doozy.

After establishing Powder as a weak link and showing all of her self-made bombs failing, the stage looked set for her to save the day after Silco kidnapped Vander. However, this rescue mission went in the opposite direction, as the monkey bomb she made (infused with a blue crystal) levelled the whole building and killed many characters.

One of the best choices made with this scene was to show the explosion multiple times from each character's perspective. This way, you got a complete sense of the damage caused and could easily see who had perished under this blunder.

It was a heartbreaking moment, as you lost many beloved faces and knew that there would be no going back for Powder.
