Arcane: League of Legends: Season 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Nic Autostraddle In true Arcane form, the visuals literally paint a sad but gorgeous image of Jinx feeling unmoored without someone to follow. Nov 18, 2024 Full Review Arcane: League of Legends: Season 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Valerie Anne Autostraddle They really hit the ground running, and at the end of the first episode, I knew this season wasn’t going to let up. Nov 18, 2024 Full Review Arcane: League of Legends: Season 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Rendy Jones RogerEbert.com "Arcane" continues to be the most visually stunning and dense series on television today, demonstrating why animation remains the most daring medium for creatives to convey a potent narrative. One can only hope for more stories from this vast universe. Nov 15, 2024 Full Review Arcane: League of Legends: Season 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Austin Burke Austin Burke/Flick Fan Nation Once again, Arcane proves its worth as a spectacle and one of the more impactful animated show of our time, even if it can't quite capture the magic of season one. Rated: 9/10 Nov 28, 2024 Full Review Arcane: League of Legends: Season 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) James Hanton FILMHOUNDS Magazine It is stratospheric. Rarely have the goalposts for what animation can do moved so dramatically, not only on a technical front but on an emotional one. Rated: 5 / 5 Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Arcane: League of Legends: Season 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Frantz Jerome Black Nerd Problems There’s a consistent interplay between the relationships between characters and the real-life tensions they symbolically represent.

Lilian F The animation is impeccable, the plot is wonderful, however, it lacked in episode length and let many good details slip by. They could have made each episode one hour long to better enjoy the details. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/29/24 Full Review Henry S Arcane season 2 is a perfect example of how a successful well-written first season can inspire a superiority complex that produces dogshit.Ruined characters, cheap plot devices, illogical character motives, unoriginal ideas.It's a shame cause the artists are impeccably talented. The writers just lost touch with what made the first season good. Aspired to do more than they were capable of and embarrassed themselves.Of course, the show has a devoted fan base from league of legends so it's bound to get raving reviews. Just not from me. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/29/24 Full Review Audience Member Arcane is a first dive into the world of league of legends lore on screen for people outside of the video game.This masterful animated show will stand the test of the time. Season one deep dived into all the interesting minds of each character learning what makes them tick. Season two is where things really take off. All these characters intercept into one of the most awesome of climaxes I've ever witness in a TV show.Trying to keep this spoiler free.I will say keep an eye out for episode 6,7 and 9 as they are the peak of the show with 7 being my favorite. One thing is for sure, this might be the end of Arcane, but with so many people now sucked into the rich lore of League of Legends, I am sure there will be many more shows to come.The only question left is, with this show costing a massive 250 million to make, if we see budgets drop, will they be able to keep the same standard of writing and animation that has Arcane the spectacle it is. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/29/24 Full Review rai k this is a piece of art in motion, every frame involves a story. you can literally pause it and see the details of the character’s feelings, i’ve never analyzed a show like this before, definitely worth all the tears i spilled.also a great bridge for future entries, i will miss these characters. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/29/24 Full Review Audience Member sorry but arcane season 1 still top if we talk about pace and storylines. there's a lot to be introduced in this second season and the stories are just all over the place.the animation still carried the show, well done fortiche. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/29/24 Full Review Devin H I agree with the reviewers criticism on pacing. However, I feel like the animation and story telling super-cede this flaw. As far as I am concerned, this is the Banksy of television media. It is an undiscovered gem for a lot of people. But when found, it is unlike anything previously discovered.This show depicts what can happen with synergistic artists. The raw emotion in this story and art set the bar unlike any other in modern day. The score and incorporation of music are powerful vessels which amplify the gritty, sad, exciting, and tense emotions. Complex like Game of Thrones, but encapsulated by incredible animation. If you pause any singular frame of this show, it is worthy to put up on any wall, any museum, and/or any screen. I am happy to have been exposed to this fictional universe. And it leaves me only wanting more exposure to the possibilities of what can be. This maybe one of the most expensive animations ever made, but in my eyes; these people deserve way more. Bravo.
