Jude always steals the show when he appears
Because on first watch, I expected this was going to be something negative. Ekko trying to defend why he'd been so hostile to Powder. 'You're not the kind of person who helps... because you destroy things,' or something to that effect.
But no.
oh
What a way to look at Jinx?? Even with everything she's done... He looks at this well-adjusted, 'ideal' Powder, and still thinks she's missing something that his Jinx has. The Powder that he knew was so determined to make something that mattered... it's a Powder who's content to play second-fiddle to the people around her, a Powder that settles that feels off to him.
And that ties into why he can't stay here. Our Ekko isn't the kind of person who settles either.

Same man I was before
The side of the blue rose represents Jinx, and the other side represents Powder. Although they have two distinct faces, the sides of a coin are necessary to form a complete whole. This shows that Ekko understands and values all facets of the person he is gifting.
"I dreamed that the undercity could be like this, but I ended up getting carried away by the things that were wrong. I gave up on it. I gave up on you." -Ekko
In this quote, Ekko shows that he recognizes the mistakes of giving up on Jinx after she joined Silco, instead of trying to understand her reasons. It shows how external influences or misguided ideas can lead one astray.
This indicates a path of mistakes or deviations that distanced him from her, increasingly creating this rivalry between the two and suppressing any kind of feeling. The way Ekko highlighted the mistakes also demonstrates that he truly regrets them.
"It doesn’t matter what happened in the past, it’s never too late to build something new for someone who is worth it" - Ekko
Após retornar, Ekko automaticamente foi atrás de Jinx. Ninguém sugeriu que ele deveria trazê-la de volta ou convencê-la a lutar na guerra; ele só queria muito vê-la depois de tudo o que aconteceu
Searching for Jinx from his universe, especially on his own initiative, can be a sign that there is an emotional interest or persistent affection. Ekko was really willing to let go of the past and any misguided ideas about Jinx. This shows that, unconsciously, he wants to reconcile the differences and reestablish the relationship with the Jinx from his universe, with whom they both had wronged each other a lot.
During the fight, there is a moment of hesitation on Ekko's part. This hesitation suggests that, despite everything that happened, he still cares about her and has difficulty seeing her just as an enemy. This internal conflict of Ekko shows that he still values the connection they had and that past feelings still influence his actions in the present.
Ekko salvou Jinx do suicídio, esse gesto poderoso pode indicar que Ekko valoriza o relacionamento e não quer desistir dela novamente, mesmo reconhecendo as imperfeições de Jinx.
Ekko understands that Powder is different from Jinx, and Jinx is completely different from the terrible being he preferred to believe she was. The events on the bridge showed that Ekko always had this irrational difficulty in seeing her just as an enemy, as he so much wanted.
This feeling always existed, even when he saw only Jinx. All this experience in the other universe made him awaken the feeling he had repressed all these years. The same irrational feeling was present when he hesitated to kill her on the bridge, despite everything that happened. This same feeling made him not allow her to kill herself. It was the same feeling that made him ask her to fight and join him….
Ekko's gift to Powder, the two-faced necklace, symbolizes the acceptance and understanding of the two parts of her identity: Powder and Jinx. He recognizes that these two facets are not completely separate, but rather parts of a whole that form who she is now, someone Ekko was willing to get to know again and not give up on saving more than a thousand times, if necessary.
CONCLUSÃO : Ekko amava Powder, e esses sentimentos nunca desapareceram com o nascimento de Jinx, eles apenas se confundiram. No outro universo, ele percebeu que realmente podia sentir algo por ela. Ele sabia que não podia ficar ali, mas ainda podia consertar seu próprio universo. Retornando, ele teria uma segunda chance de não abandoná-la e de entender seus sentimentos, mas no final, ele se arrependeu sozinho por não ter conseguido. ⏱️💣
