![]() ![]() I loved the characters and there motivations made sense, they made mistakes, they grew and some lost sight of reality, This is testament to the writers knack for building the foundation to flawed and vived characters. Mark my words Arcane will pave the way for future adaptations. The fact that it follows multiple story lines and there all unique in design is no easy task to pull of, but the writers rise to the challenge. This is an animation that Riot Games and Fortiche Productions can be proud of. The amount of work that went into the details is outstanding. It has been a long time since I've been truly impressed by a series(animaton or otherwise) and the fact that it came from out of nowhere makes it all the worthwhile. Even giving depth to the villian Silco who seemed two dimensional at the start, but growing to care and love a little girl, showing that even the darkest soul can have a heart. By the time you reach the season finale you can tell that the ending was thought out from the start. But Arcane is proof that it can be done, and be done exceptionally well. I feel like it's fair to say that it's difficult to adapt anything to the silver screen/TV these days, not that there hasn't been plenty of movies/shows that have tried and failed. Overall I'd definitely recommend this to anybody who enjoys sci-fi with a steampunk aesthetic even if you aren't usually a fan of animation I'd recommend giving it a go. The voice acting is also impressive it never felt cartoony. The character designs are good they have a slight anime feel, although that might be down to Violet and Powder having pink and blue hair respectively. The animation is fantastic in crowd scenes everybody seems to be moving naturally. Some characters are clearly our heroes and others are set up as villains but morally they are more shades of grey rather than black and white. the loss of certain characters makes one wonder if anybody is safe. Events in the third episode leads to major changes for our protagonists several years pass before the next episode and when we return things are more intense. The opening episode got me gripped with its amazingly realised world and interesting characters. however I can say, based on the first season, as a standalone piece of entertainment it is pretty amazing if you are a fan of the genre. I must admit I know nothing of the games on which this series is based so can't say how it compares. Over the course of the series there will be changes in characters as events impact on them and dynamics change. In what follows we are introduced to more key characters an underworld crime lord named Silco Caitlyn Kiramman, the daughter of a city councillor who later joins the Enforcers (Piltover Police) and Viktor a young man who works with Jayce in his investigation of finding practical uses for magic. The group are now hunted, and following her loss of other items Powder is considered a Jinx. as they flee the scene she drops one and it explodes destroying the building. Violet's little Sister, Powder, takes several glowing blue crystals. As the series opens we are introduced to a group of youngsters, from Zaun, led by a girl named Violet who enter Piltover and steal from a house belonging to scientist Jayce Talis. The former is a utopian city where citizens have an easy life with access to all the latest technology the latter is a dystopian, squalid underground city whose inhabitants struggle to survive. The series was created by Christian Linke and Alex Yee, and Linke will serve as executive producer alongside Marc Merrill, Brandon Beck, Jane Chung, and Thomas Vu.This animated series is set in the twin cities of Piltover and Zaun. Season 2 of Arcane will be brought to us by Riot Games, with Fortiche Productions returning for its animation. We also sung Arcane's praises in our review and awarded it a rare 10/10 score, saying, "Arcane is the first video game adaptation that’s truly a masterpiece, breaking new ground for what’s possible in TV animation." It's also currently sitting as the #2 spot on Netflix's Global Top 10 list of English language TV shows. This news shouldn't come as too much of a surprise considering the overwhelmingly positive reception Arcane has received since it made its premiere on November 6, 2021.
