Is it just me or is he strikingly similar to "V" from "V for Vendetta"? His mannerisms and vocals are very reminiscent if the character "V" at the beginning of the film. I was just curious if anyone else noticed, or maybe if one of the devs was inspired by the movie?
It's been a common assumption for him. I don't think it's been confirmed or denied, but yeah he is similar. Unlike V however, Jhin is a man who considers himself trapped in the art of killing and can't get out of it, even if he wanted to (which he may).
Huh i never really thought of that
The main reason people keep making this is assumption is because of a couple of surface level things and some less surface level things
however despite the similarities i dont feel they are the same in fact i see them as opposites because V doesnt necessarily feel trapped he is very aware of what he is and openly embraces death after his task is done, Jhin on the otherhand is only vaguely aware of what he really is and is so trapped by his persona and his compulsion that he can't escape himself even in his most lucid of moments, he also is entirely selfish as he only furthers his own pleasure by killing.
