Finally Got the Name Right

Personally, arcane season 1 was the best "animation" adaptation of game/book all time. Well, it turned out season 2 can and possibly will deliver more. Visuals are stunning, action scenes are phenomenal, character backstories are developping, story is building well. On the other hand pacing is a bit slow, we don't get to see the reactions of people except the main characters of the show. Anyways let's don't care much about these big pros and little cons, let's talk about MUSIC and SOUND design. Man! Riot, please you cannot be this GOOD. Every music, little rythms building up, enviromental sounds are synched perfectly. I don't know how many more songs we are going to listen but man I am into all of them. Can't wait for the other bands, singers' bangers. Overall; quite strong start with Act I, this episode was the best, can't wait to see where this season goes.

Return of the Peak Fiction. No words, absolute cinema. Outstanding display of artwork and animation from Riot. After 3 years of waiting, I promise you won't be disappointed. Act I feels like the tip of the iceberg. So many events are about to unfold in the upcoming Acts and I cannot wait. The ending scene (Caitlyn's) was icing on top. "To Ashes and Blood" will pierce through your ear and echoes all day long. It's that good of a song, especially the choir part. Ever since the teaser release, i've been dying to get a full version and now it's finally here. And it's used phenomenally. The voice-acting, it don't even feel like an animated character talking. So realistic and emotional. Starved for more episodes.

The best episode of Arcane so far, every scene was flawless. This episode sends you through spirals of different emotions which leaves an impact like no other episode so far. Characters entire dynamics are completely shifted in the most shocking ways and so many new elements are introduced to be explored further. The episode does not shy away from mystery and withholding information from the viewer and when it does reveal twists it does so in the most satisfying way. The episode tackles so many different storylines in so many different places and manages to weave them together so well. The ending solidifies the episodes 10/10 rating with a haunting final sequence. This episode is Arcane's magnum opus. (So far)

I was left completely breathless after this episode, as I had been kept on the edge of my seat for most of it! Everything was on another level, all the way from storytelling, writing, action and twists and turns!

The fight in this episode was just crazy, and one of the most well animated in the entire show thus far! It was just a rollercoaster of intensity and emotions!

The dynamic between Vi and Caitlyn was great too and I got really emotional as Vi told she had nobody but her, as she had decided that Powder was gone for good!

The soundtrack and music in this show is also amazing! It always adds something extra to the scenes and is used to convey information creatively, like that montage in the beginning!

At the end of the episode, I realized that things have only just begun! Now things are about to get crazy and I cant wait qnother week for more!

I'm fully serious this was peak Game of Thrones level of action, emotion, and storytelling. For a show based off league of leagues (which ive never played) this show deserves all the praise. The music blending into the fight scenes, Vi, Cait, and Jinx finally clashed and it was hands down the greatest episode I've seen this year. Arcane season 2 has somehow topped the first season so far. It's mindblowing how good the story for this show is. Every single character is written correctly and made to feel important and you care for them all. I can't wait to see how this story ends cause it's building up so good.
