Sisters are the best and also the worst. You love them as much as you can and if you're lucky, they come back to you.

(NO SPOILERS) Arcane - Season 2 is a continuation that not only matches the quality of the first season but, in many ways, surpasses it. The series once again immerses us in the captivating world of Piltover and Zaun, where the characters' stories grow deeper, more intense, and dramatic. What immediately stood out to me was the noticeable improvement in animation. Smoother movements, more detailed character expressions, and precise use of color make the second season a visual masterpiece that’s a joy to watch. The music, whether orchestral scores or curated tracks, remains exceptional and enhances the atmosphere of each scene. The second season picks up directly after the dramatic conclusion of the first, immediately grabbing the viewer’s attention. The story not only revisits beloved characters like Vi (Hailee Steinfeld) and Jinx (my favorite, Ella Purnell) but also introduces intriguing new faces and develops their relationships. Jinx’s character arc, filled with both internal and external conflicts, adds a new emotional depth to the narrative. Supporting characters like Jayce, Caitlyn, and Viktor are given meaningful development, with their stories feeling well-crafted and purposeful. The action sequences are one of the series' biggest highlights. Every fight scene is choreographed brilliantly, visually stunning, and takes full advantage of the signature use of color that defines Arcane. The tension and emotions from these scenes are conveyed with incredible intensity. At the same time, the series balances this with quieter, dialogue-driven moments that advance the story and deepen character development. Episode seven, for example, presented an intriguing experiment with the multiverse, offering a fresh perspective on the world of Arcane and its characters. The finale of the second season was emotionally charged and full of twists. While some viewers may not agree with the direction the story took, it’s undeniable that the series concluded on a high note while leaving ample room for future developments. The open-ended conclusion suggests that the world of Arcane still has much more to offer, and I’m hopeful for further seasons building on the strong foundation of these two. Overall, the second season of Arcane is a thrilling experience, combining visual excellence, a compelling story, well-written characters, and phenomenal music. While some episodes had weaker moments, the season as a whole feels like a carefully crafted piece that satisfies both League of Legends fans and newcomers to this world. After much deliberation, I’d rate this season a solid |9/10|, and I can’t wait to see where the story takes us next.

Sorry but season 2 is so boring, heroic. All characters have plot armor.

Anyone who claims “poor storytelling” simply didn’t comprehend the story being shown. Arcane was a masterpiece that explored the human condition through the intertwined relationships and various plot lines each character faced.

Honestly, it’s a fine show, season one has much better story writing than season 2 but then season 2 has better animation. Season 2 has a notable drop in story writing, the dynamic of piltover and zaun feels like it has disappeared, the noxian storyline feels like it’s been forcibly added by riot, but then I love the show due to its animation, episode 7 in s2 was great and that’s all I need to leave a review of this show
