  • This is my Spoiler Free Arcane Arcane Netflix Series Review. Explain your thoughts on the first three episodes of Arcane below, and let me know what you thought of that ending. What is your Arcane Review and Reaction? dives into the delicate balance between the rich city of Piltover and the seedy underbelly of Zaun. Tensions between these city-states boil over with the creation of hextech - a way for any person to control magical energy - in Piltover; and in Zaun, a new drug called shimmer transforms humans into monsters. The rivalry between the cities splits families and friends as Arcane brings life to the relationships that shape some of League of Legends' famous champions including Vi, Jinx, Caitlyn, Jayce and Viktor. Based on the world behind the game League of Legends, the animated event series features a complex world filled with moral decisions, breathtaking animation and suspenseful storytelling. Are you a League of Legends fan?

      thanks for review it. i play league for 5 to 6 years now. the game is 5 vs 5 players, the characters have lore but not all players know the lore, so to make a point people dont need to know league to enjoy this show. the players will catch the references thats for sure. but the serie does a great job on telling the storie so anyone dont be left out.
      to me was 10/10, it has so much heart into it, on storie , animation and in fight scenes.
      i got sad at end of episode 3 and i bet people that dont play league got sad aswell while watching the episode.

      I didn't even know it was a game, but I fell in love with this show! Stunning visuals, but not just that, the story is so well developed, great set of characters and nice world building. It's also an emotional rollercoaster. The end of Arc 1 was heartbreaking.

      Been playing since early 2010 and following the lore since they started doing something about it - 6 -7 years ago or so - and I find Arcane fantastic. It respects the known lore of the universe and the characters while adding new things.

    • @God-T

      if they're going to release this, then it makes sense that each character gets their own story in packs similar to Marvel or DC, but better! We don't need a generic League of Legends Movie, instead build up & focus on stories and characters arcs. giving newcomers a chance to learn the lore and explore the past and future of League of Legends. :)

      if you watch their music videos and animated shorts they are at the top of the game for years, they produce "concept videos" that look better than actual music videos do these days... so the stunning looks were kind of expected but they even kicked it up a notch and the story building... the writing ... what maniac did they found to write that... yes it exceeds any expectations but doing that is kind of their thing.

    This show blew my mind into a different hairstyle. Better than I expected? No, it was better than I would have ever imagined. As to how it pertains to Runeterra (League of Legends universe), it's an extremely small snippet though the location is probably the most human-centric insofar as storyline is concerned. (their are other areas that near Zaun/Piltover as well, though it's not on the level)

  • @mattdembek3506

    Apart from this series being amazing and so good that it even hooks up people unfamiliar to the game with powder storyline that becomes this so much more beyond the harley quinn persona, shes crazy, shes funny, shes badass and with specific humor style. This is just a scratch on the League of Legends lore, one of the 'zones' from the game, but there's so much more and I hope this series become so epic, that we get to visit other cities and characters that are the heart of the Leagues world.

    So glad I was wrong. This show is a masterpiece. My girlfriend doesn't play League & only knows a few names from when she'll watch me playing & she's loved it!
    Highly recommend the show.

    The origins' story of Vi and Powder (a.k.a. Jinx) is a mystery to both gamers of League of Legends and newcomers alike, so Arcane is a godsend. Same can be said about Viktor and Jayce, but both of them have more stabilished lore along the years.

    I honestly think it is even better, as a viewer, IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR with League of Legends. Because...the first three episodes were written so well...and I am a League of Legends player, a fan of the lore and stories surrounding the characters and the game itself and i am utterly MINDBLOWN at how well written were the first three episodes. Imagine from the context of a regular viewer who doesn't know who is Jinx, Vi, Jayce, Warwick, Caitlyn, Heimerdinger, Viktor, Ekko. They have written all of these champions from the game itself so well... I am very very pleased that it exceeded all of my expectations and, to be honest, it is possibly the best start of a series that i watched for a very VERY long time. Possibly since Game of Thrones aired 10 years ago...

    In terms of lore , yes the series is accurate , in the game each character has his own lore, background story , for example we know Viktor and Jaycee worked together , we Know Jinx and Vi sisters , we know Heimerdinger is a scientist ... etc , but there are manythings that are left unexplored on purpose by Riot games , they kind of make Characters stories a little bit open for additions . because they add new champs in the game and they must fit in story and lore . and to clarify things a little bit for non league fans , the series until now , showed only 2 cities Piltover and Zaune . There still soo many other champs from different places , Shurima , Ionia , Dacia , Noxus , Shadow Isles , Belgwater, each has it's distinct theme and style. Noxus are the one you don't mess with and pray they don't invade you.

But then he heard a little girl screaming. Screaming something he couldn't understand. It sounded like a name."
    and what did we see at the end here? Him at the blink of a near death scenario all in blood, jinx sitting right next to him, screaming for a name, Violet.
