The hype is SO real and we’re stoked to finally get into Arcane! We started this just in time to watch Season 2 together later this year 😉🔥
Btw, we’ve already posted our Full Reaction & Unedited version on our Patreon, so check it out if you want to see more! 🤩

Gosh, I can't wait to see more of your reactions to Arcane given how invested you are already. You have no clue what you signed in for. This is an absolute masterpiece of entertainment and is also just a very tiny piece of the incredible world of Runeterra.
As I know who is your "guide" and editor I can tell you that you are in best hands to explore this world in case you decide to even go further than Arcane alone.
So fasten your seatbelts and enjoy this rollercoaster of a show.🤩
I will happily join in👍
@@masterofpuppets7586 this is amazing to hear! We thank you for joining us and watching along 🤩 Our editor for this series has been nothing short of amazing so we feel lucky to have met them 🙏🏽
Can’t wait to watch the rest of S1 together and then catch S2 later this year 🫶🏼
@@MeeshDeeReacts Believe me, you don't really know yet how much you want season 2 to start...😉
And your editor will surely have sth in mind to cover the time until then.
You just opened Pandora's box...
Have fun!
@masterofpuppets7586 You really are too sweet. I missed you!!! Glad to be on another Arcane fix together, I have you to blame for my need to play LoR during my downtime rendering the edits, after all, I just love the lore :P
I'm excited to see this channel grow and glad you can come along with!
@@hungryrabbiddawgSame. 🫶 But our paths will always cross at some point. 🤞Who knows, maybe once they have finished season 1 Meesh & Dee would like to go for a little trivia quiz about the show? I hear there is a good one out there...😉
Keep the good work going! Nice edit👍
"How do they make it look so good?" Three hundred plus artists pouring their creativity into it for six years.
or, from the behind the scenes video series: “How do you texturize it to look like a painting?” .... "We paint!".
That is AMAZING. the detail does not go unnoticed! 🔥🔥🔥
@@MeeshDeeReacts they also spent 11,000,000 dollars per episode making this. that's not a typo. 11 Million each. The vision for this series from the company that owns League of Legends was one of perfection or nothing at all. Arcane was almost canceled and scrapped when the voices behind the purse strings were not impressed with episode 1. Thank god they gave it a chance to blossom into the masterpiece that it is. I can't wait to watch you guys react to the next 8 episodes because it only gets better and better.
@@_FirstLast_ That is insane 🤯 We can't wait
@@MeeshDeeReacts After u guys watch the series u should check out the be hind the scenes series! They cover every aspect of how the show was made, from the inspiration to the defeats and then success. It's really inspiring. This was _not_ an easy project that's for sure. Esp since this is their first and none of them had experience in making a whole series.
Non-spoiler background: The "undercity" used to be a mining colony for the upper city, Piltover. Piltover thrived, became an amazing beacon of prosperity and innovation. Meanwhile the undercity became a polluted slum. They're looked down on a lot, considered dirty. That's why people like the enforcer named Marcus referred to them as "trencher trash" because they live in these old mining trenches. You'll hear other slurs against them throughout the show.
I don't want to say much more than that for fear of giving anything away. I always wished they had spent just a little more time pointing this out earlier in the series for some more context.
Can't wait to see more! I love that you picked up on the fact that Vi and Powder didn't know the blue ball (giggle) caused the explosion in the apartment. Powder accidentally dropped it and wasn't looking. They were already halfway out of the building when the explosion went off. A lot of first time watchers don't catch that.
What more context do you want? What you described is visible in almost every image. Could it be that you got used to a narrator explicitly telling you whats going on? Arcanes storytelling and worldbuilding is so much better executed compared to anything we are used to, coming from the US.
@@nostalji75individuals like you are annoying
@@nostalji75 It's a bit subtle, a throw-away line or two referencing it would've made things clearer; but even without it, pretty much anyone can figure out that the Undercity is the slums, and the people down there are oppressed, even without knowing the details of the hows and whys of it.
@@LadyDoomsinger To me its more than subtle, but I assume its up to what you are used to and up to your prefences.
I simply prefer visual and in itself authentic/realistic appearing kind of" story-telling. I value similar things like J.R.R. Tolkien when it comes to fantasy. Others like you might prefer a more explicit approach of story telling. Thats also fine. But I think when it comes to movies "show don't tell" is a usually a better way of story telling. (There are exceptions ofc)
Artistic references to the discrimination of the Undercity can be deducted from almost every picture. Its in the colours that show the pollution of the air, the poverty and hostile atmosphere. Almost every part of Zaun looks like dispair, violence and sickness. In clear contrast we have the friendly colours and clean shapes of Piltover.
Also you see clear acts of discrimination throughtout the series. Thats literally what the enforcers are all about. Enforcing discrimination of the Undercity. At least from what we have seen. For instance do you remember the scenes about how they treat prisoners?
Sorry if this was boring to you, but I am on some good weed :P
@@nostalji75 Oh, I absolutely agree that visual storytelling is by far superior, and "subtle" doesn't mean "bad" in my book. It just means, there's a risk that not everybody notices, which is a shame because it is both a great story and pretty important themes to think about in relation to real life.
All of which is to say: While I appreciate and enjoy "visual" storytelling, I absolutely advocate for narrative exposition - in moderation. A simple single line just to explicitly state something, that is implied through subtext is not that much of an intrusion in my viewing experience, and it can greatly enhance the experience for someone who might have missed the visual cues, so why not? As far as I'm concerned, anyway... As long as it's not too excessive, so as it diminish the overall quality of the experience, of course.
Illustrations at times usually look better than the final product. What makes this series so incredible looking is it's hybrid mix of 2D&3D images.
Ahh that makes so much sense now. The animation is beautiful! 🤩🔥
Don't feel like you need to do "research" to enjoy the show, cause you'll definently be spoiled by that. You'll get all the info you need from just watching the show :) Love your reactions, subbed!
Thanks for the tips! We appreciate you watching along and we’ll stick to only watching the show for now then 😉🙏🏽❤️
I’m glad you saw this comment! I would have to concur. I’d argue that the vast majority of people who saw this show had no idea what League of Legends was about or who these characters were going into it, and that makes it even better!
@@boredmarinerd808 thank you for this!! We’ll continue going into the show blind then! Yall are amazing 🥰🫶🏼
@@MeeshDeeReacts Glad to hear it, looking forward to watching this with you guys! :) I also went in to this show knowing nothing about the world or characters, and I believe it actually made it a little easier to follow and more enjoyable.
I love when editors' personalities comes through in their editing; whoever this is, they're fuckin' hilarious😆
We love our editors!!! 🤩🫶🏼🔥
Haha, I appreciate you! I just try to poke fun here and there. Thank you again!
@@MeeshDeeReactswho are your editors?
omg a CURRENT arcane reaction?! i’m so happy i’ve been rewatching so many arcane reactions from 2 years ago bc i miss it so much
Yay! Now you can join us on our Arcane journey! ✨😁
Jesus, small world. Dee its Jeremy, Alexa’s younger brother. It’s wild that this popped up in my feed. This show is fantastic, can’t wait to see the rest of the reactions.
Hey J!! Wow super small world. We’re so happy we showed up on your feed! It was meant to be. We’re excited we can watch (and in your case rewatch) this series with you all and can’t wait for S2 coming out later this year! ❤️❤️❤️
Let us know if you have any particular feedback for this series that we can use to make our videos of better value 😊
@@MeeshDeeReacts I don’t really have anything to add for feedback, but I recommend you hold off on doing any research until you finish the show. Also of note is that the series came out in batches of 3 episodes so its up to you if you want to experience that.
Noted!! Thank you 😊🙏🏽
you gonna love this! expect the unexpected, the lore, the writing, the problems, the gays, the people and character development and especially the animation, chef kiss!! This is for us!!
Love to see it!! 🥰❤️🙏🏽
This show is so freaking amazing‼️ And finallyyyy after like 3 years I believe, we’re getting a s2 in November of this year and I CANNOT WAITTTT😩🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
We are SOO excited to finish this season and then watch S2 with yall!! 🔥🔥
STOKED...sooooo hyped that you two are watching this AMAZING series!!! No spoilers but tissues....lots of them, like seriously. Blue Eye Samurai is a fantastic series too. Subscribed 😁
LFG! Thanks for watching along with us!! Tissues will be brought for the entire series 🥹❤️🙏🏽
I second Blue Eye Samurai, although the show gets very dark at times.
This show is an absolute masterclass in how to write a wide array of strong, smart, diverse, interesting, self-actualized female characters... women as WOMEN, in all their empathy and vulnerability and limitless endurance, rather than simply having them act like men and implying that that's the only way to be strong. Not one of the characters is some token stand-in for an entire group, which frees them to have depth and nuance and even those all-important weaknesses that make them relatable to everyone rather than walking caricatures to lecture the audience with.
Without spoiling anything, that's why the 'gay' aspect of the show will appeal to you both so much, because it's not some illustrative metaphor for 'the gay experience'... it's just about two human beings, two sincere souls who find a deep and true connection with one another... and they just happen to both be girls. It's never about gay... it's just about love, and THAT is what the world moves for.
If you haven't already seen the 'Enemy' music video, you should watch it (and react to it) sooner rather than later. It's animated, using the characters from the show, but all original footage, and it gives some valuable insight into some of the things that take place during the show.
The woman with the gravely voice, Shohreh Aghdashloo. LOVE her. She's also in the GREAT series The Expanse (which I highly recommend).
Omg yes. Her character in the expanse is very complex and morally gray but always epic.
Yeah, you guys should watch the expanse. Its awsome! I watched it at least 4 times
@@j.f.fisher5318 Morally gray? Isn't she clearly a "good guy" similar to Jayce. If I remember her character correctly she is powerful politician who uses her power and abilties to do good. Just more cold, practical and experienced than our "golden boy".
I think if you call her morally "gray" than so are the actual heroes of the show. Which include a soziopath, a freedom fighter, a martian and someone from earth. Guess the different perspectives make every character morally "gray".
@@nostalji75 That's generally what morally grey means, yeah. It's recognizing that everyone is generally doing what seems best from their perspective, rather than the less nuanced black and white, good vs evil morality we see in simpler stories. If something or someone is evil or good just because the story needs them to be, that's black and white morality. If a character is good or evil because their unique perspective and personality means that the actions they think are the best in any given situation leads to outcomes most people agree are good or bad, that's grey morality; even if you don't agree with the actions taken, being able to understand them and understand why a given character took said actions is what creates moral grey areas, and it's how the real world works which is why we usually praise writing that includes it.
@@DarthRayj No being a grey character doesn't mean you do what is best from your perspective and realisé others do aswell . Your definition fits for villains and heroes alike and is just how you write authentic characters. You could literally act "morally grey" by doing random stuff. Grey here just means neither good nor bad. And it doesn't really fit her character in expanse. She does mostly good things with good intentions, but she acts also clearly in a "bad" manner resorting to torture and stuff.
It's so interesting to see people react to this show now, after the second rewrite of the entire League universe. See, League originally came out in 2009, but as it increased in popularity over the following years, some of the creatives at Riot realized that they really weren't satisfied with the world they had come up with. So, I think sometime around 2013-ish, they literally redid the whole thing from the beginning - trashed all the existing characters' backstories and wrote new ones, same for the locations and so on. Fast forward 8 more years to 2021, when Arcane was released and of course it completely blew everyone away. One problem: the world of Arcane bore many decisive differences to the world of League as it existed, such as some characters not existing, as well as certain major events within the lore not occurring. With growing demand by fans of both the game and the series, they eventually opted to rewrite the entire world yet again last year, officially making Arcane's story canon and having it overwrite the existing lore. For this reason, it's easy to imagine the rest of the universe will be subject to similar changes from here on out.
I'm enjoying your reaction. The advice given about the music was correct: All of the songs/music, including during the credits was written specifically for the show, they are part of the storytelling. You're also correct that the it bears multiple watches, it has depth.
Awesome!! Yes we love the music & score of the show so far! So beautiful 🤩
I just finished it for the first time, like 5 days ago.... best animation in history!!!❤❤❤
Ahh love to hear this! So glad we can watch together now 🤩🙏🏽
SO glad you started watching this show!! the best thing about it is that it only gets better with each episode
Let’s go!! Excited to watch more with yall 🫶🏼😊
Arcane is an amazing series. One of the best animated series ever made - in my opinion. I haven't played League of legends either.
Same!! So excited to start this together 🤩🙏🏽
The unique art style is a blend of 3d animation and 2d hand drawn art , different methodologies are used for different environments to give it a unique stylized flair. It’s actually crazy how long and intricate the process was to make this.. there’s a UA-cam documentary on the making of arcane that you should watch AFTER the 9 episodes. It’s so good
This was very enjoyable hope you continue watching this 💙😊
This is the first time I stumble upon you channel and you lovely ladies had such a good reaction!! I’m looking forward to seeing the next episodes with you! Get tissues ready 😅
Yay! So glad you found us and appreciate you watching along!! ❤️ we can’t wait to watch the rest of S1!! 🤩
Also, some of the backgrounds are matte painted like the practical effects in the ending cockpit scene of "Star Wars Episode IV:A New Hope" which confusingly was the first Star Wars film released.
The lgbt is just the cherry on top of this masterpiece, not the main reason it is recommended so heavily. It's an incredibly crafted tv show, my all time favorite, can't wait for you to finish it and to get season 2!
🥹❤️❤️❤️
The Start of Season 1 Act 1: The Prologue, the Jinx that started-off Everything.
You’re in for a Ride.
Aw y’all the coolest couple on UA-cam. Thnx for sharing these reactions
Aww you’re too sweet!! We appreciate you watching along 🫶🏼🥰
So glad youtube recommended this video to me! Excited to see you guys react to the show, its so good!
Well this is definitely a wonderful series to start! 😋 Really excited about rewatching this with you two 🥳
Keep up the wonderful work girls! Doing an amazing job 💪🏾♥️
Let’s go!! Excited to watch with you all 🥰🔥🙏🏽
Awesome! Here we go again! Ready for their reaction to this show!!
Let’s go!!! 🤩🤩
If you're looking for more animated shows to watch, I definitely recommend a series called RWBY(pronounced Ruby). It's an American animated series created by the animation company Rooster Teeth. It has lots of great action scenes and has an amazing story!
You guys are super fun and have a great vibe. I see your channel growing exponentially with this series. In fact I just subbed
Aw thanks so much for watching with us!! We’re super stoked to continue watching this series with y’all 🥰❤️🙏🏽
can't wait for episode 2!
“Cuz there are Cupcakes”😂😂
" They're gay's in the show so you will love the show as you are gays" is also an amazing Quote
You guys are so sweet, love your reaction! Like some other comments said you don’t need to worry about knowing anything besides what the show presents. Super excited to see what you think of the other episodes, it’s nice to see that you got the idea right away, this show is about all the feels 💗 enjoy!
YES YOU'LL LOVE ARCANE
You guys are in for a real treat.
Nice reaction! Good fair editing length too for YT. Can't wait for the rest!
More to come!😉🔥
So excited y'all are doing Arcane!! (Definitely hit up Blue Eye Samurai and Shogun at some point, too. Quality content all-around!)
The show`s based on a MOBA that`s run by a video game company in LA called Riot Games and is animated by a Parisian animation studio called Fortiche. Both were founded in 2009 and have since greatly matured and advanced their animation style which mixes 3-D character models, 2-D props and effects and matte painted backgrounds.
So glad you are both so invested after episode one!! Believe me, you still have a bunch of amazing characters still to meet! :) Really looking forward to your series
(I have never played League, and I can confirm you don't need to know anything about the game! :) ) P.S - It may be a bit late to comment this, but it is probably best to avoid watching any league stuff until you are done with series 1! There is character progression that could be spoiled by doing so!
Hi there! Thanks so much for watching with us and we’re super excited to finish S1 and watch S2 later this year with yall 🤩 we’re already loving everything about Arcane and the world-building!! We’ll definitely stay away from spoilers/outside research as well 🙏🏽
This is my first time checking out your content and I really enjoyed your genuine excitement and thoughts watching the show. I don't comment often but I absolutely love Arcane. While the game League of Legends is definitely not for everyone, the lore of the world and it's characters is rich and compelling. The creators brought all of that to life and told a beautifully human story that anyone can enjoy. So I thought I'd drop a comment for the algorithm and I look forward to the rest of your journey through the season!
Thanks for taking the time out of your day to comment here and watch along with us! 🥰🫶🏼 we really appreciate you and look forward to watching the rest of the S1 with you and S2 soon 🤩
Super excited for you to be along for the ride. Looking forward to the next!
Yess we’re so stoked to be watching with you all and can’t wait for S2 coming later this year 🤩🙏🏽
I love this show SO much and I'm excited you're going to watch it! Subscribed specifically for these reactions!
❤️❤️❤️
i looove this show and i also hope u get around to blue eye samurai sometime it’s rly underrated 😊
We definitely want to check out BES at some point too! 🙏🏽
@@MeeshDeeReacts Yes!
Awesome reaction, very excited to see the rest of your reactions as the show really gets going! 🎉
Let’s go!! We can’t wait to keep watching with y’all too ❤️
Yea its genetic modifications mixed with biomachinery alterations 😂,it cans look very alien esque
Great video! Can't wait to see you reaction to all of Korra and Arcane! And congrats on your engagement!!!!!🥳🥰
Thank you!! 😁❤️❤️❤️
If you are interested in how the show was made, I highly suggest to watch "Arcane: Bridging the Rift". It's a 5 episodes docuseries on UA-cam, explaining how Arcane came to be, almost as good as the show itself 😊
IM SO HAPPY THAT YOU GUYS ARE REACTING TO ARCANE, IT'S JUST ART.
And omg, demon slayer, it's so good too, I'll be waiting for the reaction, it's incredible, you'll definitely like it.
Oh yeah! I am super hyped for this! Lets go!
LFG!! 🔥🔥
Riot has said if they weren't making video games they would be in the music industry. They have quite a few songs they've wrote and had artists perform to go with their hype videos for the game. There's a lot of songs and lore videos from Riot and the world they're building is extremely diverse. They have hundreds of heroes in the world they have developed some awesome stories with that I hope some make it into the Arcane show even if this is a prequel to the game.
This was great! Love how you're asking genuine questions about the show, and are interested in learnig more. Huge shout out to the editor as well! Whether intentional or not, I really appreciate the use of scenes that aren't commonly shown in these reactions + the light use of humour is a nice addition.
Definitely intentional, I appreciate the shoutout ;) I had to comment here because there have been so many reactions done to Arcane at this point and while the popular scenes are popular and for good reason, there's just so much about this show that I love and want others to see again. It's thanks to Meesh & Dee for giving me this opportunity to edit for them so I show a little more Arcane where I (hopefully) think works alongside their reaction. Thanks again!
@@hungryrabbiddawg That's awesome! Really nice work, I've seen a lot of Arcane reactions and your edits have inspired me to go back and watch the show again - so many interesting scenes that actually seem new to me watching them here, because -- as you say -- the popular scenes dominate the reactions. Looking forward to seeing your edits for the rest of the series 😄
Arcane is such a good show, and it got me heavily into the lore of the League of Legends universe. The basic joke is that the original game does not deserve the lore that was created for it, because this is an extensive world. Arcane is set pretty much exclusively in the twin cities of Piltover and Zaun, and is the more technologically advanced region of the world. Some of the other regions include an east Asian style continent where all of the buildings are grown from living trees, a pirate town made of shipwrecked boats next to a haunted sea, an Egyptian style desert land and even a Norse flavored icy region.
🤯🤯
@@EgoJinpachi_ Thanks, I corrected that. Zhon is the last name of a character in the book I'm writing, so I put that in automatically.
@@robertgronewold3326 I wanna learn more about the world and lore of league of legends. I have watched arcane already. Where can I start?
@@henry.-.2183 I learned a lot about the world from a pair of UA-camrs; Necrit and JustBlais. They have some videos where they break down the various regions of the world of Runeterra, the planet that Arcane is set on.
@@robertgronewold3326 oh wow. Thank you
If you love how realism the animation on this, you would love: Jin Roh: Wolf Brigade (1999 film) and Patlabor: the Movie. Also, Serial Experiments Lain was a great mini series. The movie Royal Space Force: Wings of Honneamise is also phenomenal.
LETS GO ARCANE!
Best of luck to your reaction! I look forward to your next episode..
Thank you so much!! 🫶🏼
Happy Thursday Meesh and Dee! I hope you two have a wonderful day. Stay safe, take care and stay amazing.
Happy Thursday, Rob!! 🤩❤️
You might be happy to hear that the voice of Caitlin in this show is Cho Chang from the Harry Potter movies
Meesh & Dee Awesome Video Reaction Today!!🔥🐐🐐💎
Oh you don’t even know the half of it yet, I am really looking forward to the next episodes!
DO NOT PLAY LEAGUE OF LEGENDS! ONLY EVIL THAT WAY LIES
Teemo is laughing in the distance 😂
I started playing after watching Arcane…. How do I get out…? 😅
Turn to the dark side you must not
That's the neat part, you dont.@kiarya7939
@@kiarya7939 once you get in, you can never go out
Professional fighters (boxers and mma fighters) have reviewed the fight scenes in this series and have given them high marks for authenticity and realism. Everything shown in the fight scenes (though out the series) are what would happen in a real fight by trained fighters, with only a few minor licenses taken for cinematic purposes.
About the League of Legends universe: The place in which Arcane takes place is one zone or region in the world of League of Legends. Out of all the regions, Piltover & Zaun is the most Earth-like place, the rest is full of fantasy inspired elements, very interesting story-lines, characters and designs. This, in my opinion, makes Piltover & Zaun the most "boring" place in League of Legends. The show taking place here isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially in the early seasons, because it gives a familiar atmosphere with the big city and the struggle for power in it, and our focus is more on the story itself, rather than the setting. It also opened the door for new people to get to know the League of Legends universe, because if the show took place in a place that's more detached from reality, like Ionia, Shurima, Targon, or the Shadow Isles, the show would need to spend a significant part of its runtime explaining things, or it would need the audience to be familiar with the lore of League of Legends. Getting invested in the lore is not hard at all, almost all of the 160+ characters have lore written for them, which establishes their personality, gives more depth to their region of origin, and links them to major events and other characters.
Nevertheless, I would be really curious how they would tackle other regions in Arcane, and I would be very happy to see more playable characters from League of Legends (Champions) appear in the show, especially because one of the most interesting characters in the entire game (if not in gaming history) visits Piltover in the "Awaken (Season 2019)" cinematic. His name is Jhin. If we get to see him in Season 2, and his personality will mirror that of his in the game, we should have a pretty kickass story-line. But then it would be very cool to venture out into other regions and see characters like Viego or Aatrox in the show, but we don't know if Riot wants to explore a larger part of the League of Legends lore or not.
Anyway, thanks for reading my yapping!
Patiently waiting for y’all to get a Netflix sponsorship
😅😅 So are we!! 🙏🏽🫶🏼
YESSS LETS GOOOOOO!! 🎉
my favorite show ever
🤩🤩🤩
good thing ur editor saved you from this game, but the show is insane, till this day one of the best things ive ever watched
Shoutout to our editor!! 🤩🙏🏽🔥
Image watching this series and only having to wait till November for season 2
Oh boy, here we go!! More peeps brand new to Arcane. Can. Not. WAIT.
Let’s goooo 🔥🔥🔥
The League of Legends universe has a loooot of lore. This show covers and expands on just a small fraction of it.
Also Powder and Vi are infact biological sisters. Natural hair colour can be pretty much anything in this universe so their parents probably had blueish and pinkish hair. (Also little man having white hair!)
Also, machines and people modified into machines in this universe aren`t called robots but mechs and Augments, FYI.
To clarify some previous comments, Piltover (upper and lower) is the same city. Mining was, and still is, in fact, a large part of their industry. Structurally, in the beginning, the city was on fairly even ground, there was no true Upper or lower city. However, mining became too aggressive and careless and one day caused a chunk of the city to collapse. I don't know how extensive the damage was to the city that fell or how much rebuilding the people had to do. But that was when the start of the true upper and lower parts of the same city began. Over time, the remaining upper city continued to prosper and with much more resources at their disposal were able to control the lower city population. Not exactly slaves, but still lesser citizens.
If you got back to the bridge scene and pause on the dead mother, you'll notice in the darker area is a man with pink hair with the woman with blue, they are indeed sisters
Arcane is a true 10/10. It's as close to perfect as you could realistically get. I haven't seen anything on it's level for a very long time. Glad you are enjoying it thus far - it only gets better.
New sub!! This is the first vid I've seen of yall and I love the vibe ♥
Aww yay! Thanks for watching along with us and staying for the vibes 🥰❤️
Idk if u guys finished recording the whole thing, but just in case it isn't: the show was released in 3's, so 3 eps every week, and each part pretty much covers an arc. So I highly suggest u guys watch it in that sequence, tho every ep is also fine
I know people built it up but it’ll meet the mark you’ve made in your head. So good
I glossed over the title and i thought it said "my fiancee" lol.
Imagine my surprise😲😅😂
I’m very excited for you guys to watch this BUT I’m also so excited you’re contemplating Demon Slayer because I know you both will love it!
🥰🙏🏽 we’re definitely contemplating DS!
I think not knowing the world makes the series a better watch, everything is new, and without expectation. Without information the players of the game had, you can't anticipate future plot. I'd personally suggest not watching any lore videos, and even skipping the intro of the show for the rest the first watch. I'm glad people are finding this show, it was criminally not shown the love it deserves. At least that was the case where I live. Good luck, and have fun watching.
Love you both
Yeah avoid spoilers as much as you can! It's an amazing show.
I love how both non players & players advise every show viewer to stay away from the game. lol
This series is amazing ❤❤❤
The show is entirely self-contained, you don't need to know anything external to it. I'd be cautious with people in the comments, they're bound to spoil things. The show teaches you everything you need to know.
The intro has an official music video you might want to check out once you finish the season. It's all new scenes that add to the experience, but is best viewed afterwards.
League also has some amazing cinematic trailers, specifically the seasonal ones, specifically 2018-2020, 2022, and 2024. I'm sure your editor knows which ones they are.
No worries on these, I've got them covered should they be curious on any of the League related things after Arcane - great suggestions though!
I'm really looking forward to having them see a couple music videos as well :) iykyk, hehe
Probably my favourite piece of animation in the last 10 years. It’s absolutely brilliant. I’ll love to see you guys react to the amazing music video of the theme song Enemy. They animated materials specifically for it which doesn’t appear in the show. That’s dedication to the craft.
Absolutely brilliant so far!! Can’t wait to dive into more 🤩🤩
Oh, I'm looking forward to watching you both react to this. We all know why, you might not, but we do.
FINALLY!!! And this is just the 1st episode. Keep that in mind lmaooo
We are finally here!! 🥰🔥
There are few shows of this caliber out there, *Arcane* is that damn good i.e *Peaky Blinders, Daredevil's S2 etc*
'just want a good story' instant like
🥰🙏🏼
The experience you get going into it blind is very different than if you know all the lore. For my part I knew some and was blind in other cases and enjoyed the parts where I knew nothing more. It works perfectly either way. That said, the rewatch value is huge because there's so much you just can't understand the significance of the first time through, whether or not you know the lore.
And crazy thing is, the first two are the slowest episode as they introduce the characters and build the world. Cheers!
Thank you for this insight!! We’ll definitely be rewatching each of the episodes 😊🙏🏽
Other stuff that's well worth checking out is the music video Enemy with all new footage. I wish it could be recommended now because it shows a lot of cool slice of life stuff that gives a deeper sense of the kids' lives. But there's minor spoilers for episode 4 so better to not watch it until then, but at the same time it's salt in the wound for a scene in the third act so best to watch it while watching the second act sometime. :)
Also the Bridging The Rift bts series is great.
Yeah I never played the game and don't really plan to but this show is absolutely fire! Such great storytelling, animation, worldbuilding, and characters.
Agreed! Were loving it so far. Good to hear from you again, friend!! 🫶🏼
this series is a running truck that will leave trampled in the middle of the street, hungering for more. a greek tragedy, no good, no bad, just flawed characters searching for their own way. going in blind is the best thing that you could've have done. oh... and get tissues.
We’re so excited to keep giving into this world! 🥹🙏🏽
The Animation is all CGI just like for Spider-Man Into The Soider Verse and Across The Soider Verse. This is exactly how they are going to make The Aang Movie in 2025
I don’t think you should look up anything until you finish the series. You can totally watch this without knowing anything about the game. That was the case for me and I love this show. Knowing nothing I think makes it more exciting and interesting
i love this show!
🤩🤩
You probably don't want to do this yet since I don't think he has spoiler-free videos, but the UA-camr Schnee has AMAZING videos about Arcane. I've watched almost all of them and they opened up the show for me in a totally new way. Highly recommend (when you've watched all 9 episodes)!
Well, at least you only have to wait until November for season 2. Beats 3 years.
This show is the closest thing we got to an episode of LOVE, DEATH AND ROBOTS that spawned into a TV series
Hi, nice reaction!!!
Thank you 🤗
yayy!!
🥰❤️🙏🏽
Let's go!
LFG 🙏🏽
Its a very fantasy workd. The show (mostly) focuses on humans, but the world has several nonhuman races, magic, etc
