“Enter a world where everyone is covered in buckles.”
In game Jinx quote: "I'm wearing lots of belts! For no reason at all."
I really just read that in her voice
@@CraigRopars ME TOOOO 😭👏🏻
U know too much
Kingdom Hearts/Final Fantasy Fan: First time?
Well, thanks for reminding me of Tommy Wiseau.
"A genius with a cough? Oh, he's screwed" Genuinely made me laugh out loud.
Especially since we know Viktor lives through this.
For those that don't know.
FOR THE GLOROUS EVOLUTION!!!
@@yammoto148 "I kid you not, he turned himself into a Mechanicus Tech Priest."
"Genius with a cough? Oh, he's screwed" ...or he'll become a bad guy or a monster
Yes Yes, genius with tuberculosis!! Seriously, why did all smart people have TB????
World's okayest dad got me.
Also, "Are they okay?!" is the entire show summed up and the answer is always no.
The answer is always no😭😭😭😭
Unless you're a character from the game. Then you always seem to be able to walk it off with assistance. :P
@@johntumahab323 and you're still very much NOT OKAY
@@johntumahab323 They are still everything else but definitely not okay. Like... nit even the slightest bit
Lol yes
I lost it at "A himbo who invents new ways to make the poor work faster"
People always forget that Viktor is equally to blame for these stupid ideas. They made these bad decisions together!
"Everyone good is hot while everyone bad is physically deformed."
I'm not convinced the good guys are really the good guys in this story.
I agree, this show really thins down the line between the good side and the bad side, it really makes the characters relatable in a sense, they feel more...human.
that's what made this show so good because it really hammered the point home that not everyone is black and white just on one side. no one is cookie cutter evil or cookie cutter good.
Yeah Mel was only a good guy in like... the last 10 minutes of the show.
Yeah most of main characters at some point reached gray moral area or worse, even the "good ones" and it all made perfect sense, this show is amazing!
actually it is outlining a common trope among a lot of movies and games.
Arcane: a show so good, you'll love it while knowing absolutely nothing about League of Legends
That's the best part of the show, it's enjoyable even if you don't play LOL but there's tons of little easter eggs only long time players might notice
A show so good, you’ll wonder when it will shake off the connection to League of Legends.
Me in a nutshell lol.
Yup. Happened to me.
Went in knowing absolutely nothing about "League of Legends".
...and now I'm reading all the lore. Funny that.
I know a chick with blue hair and a big gun called Jinx must be in it 😅🤷🏽♂️
You forgot to mention how they mentioned "Shimmer" - the drug that makes you feel great for a while but ruins your life long term - which, of course, is an allegory about the ACTUAL GAME!
LMFAOOO
This got me laughing out loud again
💯😩🤣
Also a good description for actual drugs.
Actual descriptions of League
Arcane seriously impressed me with how willing they were to deliver punches. They killed characters and it hurt. They allowed characters to complete their arcs, even if it was on a downward spiral. I want more writing like this.
Preach 🙌🙌
Arcane reminds me a lot of Fate:Zero in many ways, maybe go watch that.
@@urtoryu_dy_althraidn I kind of wanted to fight you on this at first but... huh.
@@LunamrathP Right? I think Arcane is probably the better of the two, but both are amazing and chances are, if you liked one, you'll probably like the other.
Invisible is less tragedy but i think if you like arcane you will love it.
"Stupid good videogame show".... Perfectly described
I am Lure The Omicron persi i8 veriant
I'm seriously starting to think this is Netflix's wheelhouse. Castlevania, Arcane, DOTA, Dragons Dogma, they're ALL good.
@@seandlax9 Arcane was all created by riot games themselve with the studios they own.
Except you need to throw a few "really" words in between.
And among all regions piltover is the least interesting for me. But I really liked it.
“World’s Okayest Dad” really got me. Can just see him sipping from a mug Jinx made him with that scrawled on the side
Even though he was a megalomaniac, deranged, ruthless, sociopathic, manipulative, bad dude; I still felt for him in the scene he took Jinx to see Singed and was in pain.
@@Scapemaster00 He wasn't a bad dude. He literally saved his entire city. The only person he killed was Vander because Vander was literally working with the enemy keeping everyone oppressed until the end of time. He did what he had to do and got it done with minimal casualties.
Well, until the ending happened :)
@@Figgy20000 "agressive takeover" of the lane, getting child soldiers, and shimmer baron stuff is kinda shady though XD
he literally does drink from a mug that jinx made him in the show
@@Figgy20000 You are forgetting a lot of stuff. You are also ignoring why Vander was was working with the authorities to keep the peace. This show isn’t black and white.
*”To explore the eternal struggle between tops and bottoms”*
No one is gonna say anything?
You did; are you no one? ;)
found one damn XD
I think the joke was so obvious nobody needed to say anything 😂
Too busy laughing
Does anything need to be actually said?
The fact that you have people vehemently arguing on opposite sides regarding the actions and motivations of central characters like Jinx, Vi, Silco and Jayce while simultaneously agreeing that all of them are written well is, what I think, marks great writing in a show.
Usually the arguing has one side that finds the plot or characters stupid and the other which loves it or found it okay.
I find the plot and characters kinda stupid. Wasn't a huge fan of that aspect.
@@Scroolewse Why ? I found them pretty good myself
@@elio6361 idkkkk. I get that they had like depth and I applaud them for putting thought in but the way they went about it made the characters all generally unlikable for me.
It kinda does the thing where the characters are super-extremely-capable and their only flaw is that sometimes they are _too_ super-extremely-capable.
@@Scroolewse you did not watch the show, did you?
@@randomthoughts0829 sure the only way someone could think that is if they're lying about watching the show. you don't need to agree with me man
"Hot, but one-armed, so evil"
Sums up Sevica perfectly
I dont know about hot. I would have gone with uncompromisingly badass.
I mean, morality is relative in this show. Jinx is evil to people like Jayce and Mel, while Jayce and Mel are evil to literally almost all of Zaun
*Luke Skywalker would like a word*
@@anotherpersonfromnorfolk1587 thats the beauty of it, its not all black and white
@@anotherpersonfromnorfolk1587 what about to you?
"An animation style that imagines: What if DreamWorks still cared?" Too true🤣
I honestly don't get that line at all. How does that style remind anyone of Dreamworks
It's like a video game cutscene the entire time, it's not DreamWorks level
And Pixar, and Disney...
@@sobert2 Pixar literally visually improves with each movie, so no
I had the sad experience of watching the trailer for Lightyear after watching Arcane. Ouch...
"World's okayest dad" is the most accurate description of Silco
"Everyone good is hot, while everyone bad is physically deformed"
Silco simps: I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that.
Physically deformed people can be hot
I'm still surprised how Arcane turned out to be so stupidly good.
They used in house creators instead of going to Hollywood like blizzard did with WOW why did I watch this.
@@daviouscram2101 Imagine comparing animation to live action just to name drop Blizz vs Riot XD
I like people with long brain. I have long amount of disl*kes btw. Why? Maybe people with short brain disl*ke because jealous of my long amount of subscr*bers. Please have long brain, dear an
And it’s from Netflix. That means you could only expect it to be really good or really bad. You look at this show and then you look at The Kissing Booth and you wonder how the same company made both.
I've played LOL for a total of maybe 10 minutes. Still enjoyed it.
you know the show's too good when screen junkies' brutal honesty can't even make it sound a terrible show even for just 2 seconds
Jayce was painful to watch. He was so easily manipulated
@@wrylysmiley he was born in a commoner family, he obviously wasn’t taught about politics and manipulation.
@@wrylysmiley yh remember the phrase "he didnt even hassle" or "the boy didnt even hassle", kinda shows how inexperienced and priviliged he is.
Nah there are a few more movies that sj dont know how make fun of. Gotta wait for pitch meeting for the show/movie to get roasted.
@@Torannn Yeah, so when the final episode came, it's so satisfying to see his change.
"Everyone good is hot while everyone bad is physically deformed."
Screen Junkies have not been paying close attention to the actions of the sheriff of Piltover.
Or the fact that Silco isn't much worse than Jayce at the end.
@@kjj26k Jayce is definitely much better than Silco; Silco might have been trying to get respect for the undercity but all he really achieved was making jinx into the broken and dangerous person she is, get half of "his people" addicted to shimmer, and probably start a terrible war. At least Jayce was actually trying to make people's lives better
@@user-cx9nc4pj8w but Silco was trying to make peoples life better aswell. Becoming a monster was his way of helping the undercity, wasnt it? (Not saying he succeeded, but he did try)
Vander, one of the best people in the entire show with his ultimate dad bod:
@@runtergerutscht4401 Vander, one of the best people in the entire show, will make himself into IT"S ONLY FUN IF THEY RUN
You know a shows good when even the honest trailer can’t find anything bad about it
Yeah ths was hilarious tey understadably struggled with this one lol
they don’t call it an honest trailer for nothing
Its so universally loved, makes me kinda scared that if season 2 is even just a tad bit crappy, people will just bash the living sht out if it
I hope they take all the time on the world to get season 2 right. I don't care of it takes even 5 years to make. We've had a lot of rushed series, movies, and video games these last few years and Arcane really stood out. I'd be damned if the second season of this show gets rushed for the sake of profit.
@@ronaldojoe3011 it'll take 5 years to make.. and 5 years is really fast.
Sort of like Avatar and Korra. Korra is enjoyable and mostly good, but since Avatar is one of the best animated shows ever, Korra pales in comparison. I feel like if Korra wasn't set in the same universe it would be more liked then it is now.
@@themagikarp9676 no it won't take that long they had to build everything from the ground up over 6 years it wont take that long again. Likely release in 2023 at the earliest
@@thebest3702 no way
Silco has to be one of the most compelling villains I've ever seen. He's ruthless and legitimately threatening, but still fights for what might be considered a good cause and seems to legitimately care for Jinx.
...can only agree. He's so freakin' relatable though he's also just completely lost.
Pain, anger & resentment can do that to us.
@@AiNEntertainment101 And what might be a few decades of a severe and untreated eye infection.
Silco is.... complicated. He cares for Jinx because he sees himself in her so clearly. The problem is, Jinx needs help. Serious help. She needs the same help Silco needs, and he is not capable of giving what he himself doesn't have. He's trying to save his past self without changing anything. It's doomed to failure.
I agree completely.
Silco is what you might call a Charismaniac, or to use the more common term A Magnificent Bastard.
So many poor souls watched this show, loved it, and thought “I’ll check out the game it’s based on.”
I've told a few people "Don't play League looking for Arcane, because you won't find it" 😂
@@MaoTheMage what do you mean I think league perfectly encapsulates the toxicity of the undercity
Tbh I started playing Wild Rift after Arcane just to main Jinx and give her that sweet release of guns blazing and watch her be a maniac but a fun-having, happy one at that, and I'm having a great time up until now. Just got promoted to Plat. Gonna introduce my best friend to both the game and the show. Let's see.
"genius with a cough? oh, he's screwed" is the shortest, funniest and most accurate description of that trope
I made my mom watch Arcane. The day after she finished it she said “I can’t get over how good that show was”. She’s usually incapable of watching anything with interest
Haha my daughter made me watch it and I said the same thing!
Im going to try the same
Next show - Original Cowboy Bebop
It was one of the few shows that actually made me put my phone down while watching.
Omg same!!!!
Arcane was so surprising because it had genuinely mature character writing, brilliant plot lines and stakes that actually mattered, and it wasn't afraid to drop the hammer down when it came to consequences. There are definitely things you can criticize if you tried but there is enough amazing writing and character work going on that its easy to miss them entirely. It was my top show for 2021
Heh, "drop the hammer down"
And the SOUNDTRACK! This show is utmost perfection.
What got me was how everyone's motivation was very understandable. None of the main characters were pure evil, they all had more or less reasonable intentions or at least the opinions they formed and decisions they made were understandable given their specific circumstances. It's not a clear good vs evil, everyone has flaws. This made for a deeper character design for all of them imo
@@RiversideM And, most of all... It didn't just "tell" us that things were morally gray. It showed.
There is plenty to criticize, episode 3 was the peek, the show went from 100 to 0 in less then a minute
'where magic is like science and science is like crossfit' got me laughing on the floor!
i love how we all agreed on Jayce being a himbo though he is a scientist
Despite being smart, he's also kind of a disorganized goof.
What's a himbo?
@@k.5425 Stupid, Beefcake, Kind. Think Kronk from Emperor's New Groove
“Enter a world, where everyone is covered in buckles” 😂
Jinx: I'm wearing lots of belts!..... for no reason at all.
The opposite of Kingdom Hearts, where everyone is covered in zippers
@@ikarixgendo Nomura syndrome
That's kind of what steam punk is.
rob leifeld and tetsuya nomura: Done, ya want huge feet or no feet at all?
I was downright offended by how good this show was. It has absolutely no right to be this good
The crazy thing is LOL has a ton of quality background lore on all of the characters. But this lore is completely fluff and thus most people don’t bother with it.
This show though: chef’s kiss!
@@BlakeAustin2011 Over the last few years, the lore team has been REALLY revamping things and making things flow together quite well.
Let's just...forget about the whole Ruined King thing, okay?
@@BlakeAustin2011 Yeah, I'm surprised they did. I saw the show and was like "Oh I used to play that in college, it'll be nostalgic at least." Like they could have just gone off of brand recognition and put in no effort and they'd still have succeeded. My girlfriend who knows nothing of League watched it with me and was like "They really didn't have to be that deep and thoughtful."
@@Corax.S The event, not the game. The games actually pretty great if you're into turn-based RPGs. The event, Sentinels of Light, is what we'll forget.
especially if you know and played the toxic wasteland that is LoL. damn, the show is incredible good.
I'm such a cinematography nerd and I have though about this for months now but I have got to admit:
Arcane is the closest thing to cinematographic perfection that I have ever seen.
Like if you can name anything objectively better please share because I can't think of anything really.
I 100% agree IT WAS GORGEOUS
Parasite, honestly
Honestly I love demon slayer but I know some people had problems with pacing and leaving things out from the Manga. Spiderverse is fucking good too.
Shawshank redemption for me.
The Lighthouse.
I freaking love Silco. The best written character in the show so far in my opinion. I really hope he becomes a playable Champion in League.
@@vincentcircharo8259 Your profile picture confused me for a second there lol
"Everyone's like 99.99% human than every once in a while there's like one hamster. It must be really hard to date"
You're underestimating the Furry community.
almost spit my tea out at that
😩🤣
Wait till they got to animate Ionia.
Wait till they meet Warwick next season
@@LOCALTAHOENJOYER wdym we already met Warwick, he has been important for a while :)
"Magic is like Science, and Science is like Crossfit" is a pretty good subversion
At this part I laughed out loud
We need more shows that make science sexy and cool
Jayce the Hispanic Himbo is Body Goals.
Tony stark started the trend.
@@ajiththomas2465 Yum
Arcane is one of the best things I've ever seen. I went in with zero expectations, and every episode blew me away. It's not like there were a couple aspects of it that were great and the rest was just ok. I could live with that, I'd watch a show like that and be happy. But no, Arcane was simply excellent in every possible way.
Yup!!!
Except for the disability-representation.
But besides that, goddamfuckingperfect.
Same. I felt it would be gimmicky based off LOL. And I never was into anime or that type of style. Only animation stuff I liked was stuff from Pixar. But this is easily one of the best shows I've seen.
You should check out schnee (name of youtube channel) he's done a lot of good deep dives into Arcane.
@@sportenapfeltorten2095 ?
@@graffititurtle11
what do you mean with "?"
Im sorry, do you want me to explain my point of view?
Or are you just confused.
:o)
"What if Dreamworks still cared?" Best line ever.
you know the show is special when all the jokes Honest Trailers can make is about how surprisingly good it was.
Not true. They claimed Jinx was a good person, and ignored the flaws of many others, in order to make a cheap joke about moral equivalency.
Bit hypocritical, for some folks claiming to be honest.
@@juststatedtheobvious9633 Yup, Jinx and Marcus, definitely bad.
@@juststatedtheobvious9633 also Vander is a "good" person within the shows time frame but we discover he was ruthless in his younger days
I seriously have zero bad things to say about the show like I'd have to think so hard to come up with even one criticism
Can we also talk about how freaking good the score was??? All of the songs, but Ray Chen on violin? Perfection!
that was Ray Chen?? I'm a beginner violinist, and every time that solo hit i felt like i was transported right into that scene and into the character's psyche.
The violin in this show makes me really crave a Jhin subplot in season 2 or 3. Really that whole scene in the opera house did.
@@nanogibbon knowing riot they will male a season four just to make him appear at minute 4 of episode 4
IT WAS RAY CHEN?! My God, that explains a lot...
@@thebettafish3239 RIGHT??? Ugh he’s so good.
I still can’t get over that scene when Jinx and Ekko go head to head and it’s all set to this epic song!!! Chills
The honest name for Jinx should have been “Someone get this girl a therapist!”
*"One is an ex-con turned turned nark who reloads her fists like Henry Cavill."* 😂
That cracked me up so much.
And later on she will be an advocate for police brutality.
@@bluntlyhonest6803 for now she is just advocate for brutality
Hope he sees this video
Funnier knowing that Henry Cavill loved this show.
@@ryanrodriguez644 Wow! Did he actually watch it?
Sleeper Hit: Arcane has already become one of the Netflix's most acclaimed shows ever, despite being an animated prequel series to *a video game franchise* which already has *an oftentimes seemingly self-contradictory lore.* It is also one of the most popular shows in the history of the streaming service.
The main problem whit leages lore is it gets rewritten every second year or so... and adding new things into it that contradict whats already here.
But all in all it is quite a good foundation to make a series out off it because of how vague the existing lore is.
@@hohrhamikaiolaf464 Riot has made lots and lots of efforts towards tidying up their lore, rewriting old nonsensical backstories, weaving champion relationships together, pumping out short stories, songs and animations... and Arcane is the culmination of that.
but Netflix had nothing to do with the production, it was Riot Games and Fortiche studios. Netflix was just a distribution platform
@@hohrhamikaiolaf464 No, the problem with league's lore is that it was always just a bunch of disconnected blog posts written by interns that no one cared about. They never really did anything with it until now.
The combination of Sting's song (written especially for the show) and it's text overlaying the final sequence is heartwrenching and hauntingly beautiful at the same time. BAM! Right in the feels.
Masterful storytelling and directing/editing.
Still can’t believe Riot developed a game for over ten years just to advertise this master piece. Amazing 🥰

"We're partners."

@@moomoocowsly you're not missing anything really... good show, terrible and predictable plot that over hypes the lore
@@Issacnon Go back to your cave.
oh my gawd i can hear words
*chef's kiss*
@@Issacnon you can say what you want about the quality of the plot (not the most insane but still very solid) but i dont really think you can say it was predictable?
When I finished this show, I turned off my devices, lay down and cried for a good while
It's been about 9 months since I've seen it, and it still hurts when certain scenes pop up
Arcane sets a new standard for animation and story telling, and I think it will inspire other studios to raise their quality too.
Please say "you're hot cupcake" in honor of Arcane being an incredible show!
This show was pure fucking magic. Just beautiful to look at and damn good character development and just incredible. Not a LOL fan but this was amazing.
Agreed. I would find myself thinking about it for days after an episode. Not often that happens.
To be fair with you, no one's a LoL fan. Even league players.
You should read League Of Legends champion history (the "Kindred" one is REALLY good)
I kinda love-hate it. The animation is of course flawless but the aesthetic is one that I personally fucking hate so much.
good character development. yeah sure. visually great yes. rest not.
"World's okayest dad"... yup totally agree with that one, he was okay with Jinx even when she killed him

@@elizabethgregory3352 hey c'mon, people are allowed to dislike things we enjoy
What's great is that there are so many different worlds and champions in the LoL universe that they could expand into and eventually tie together. Super excited for the future of Arcane!!

The jayce parts where pretty funny though.. science is like crossfit lmao
"World's okayist dad."
🤣 This is the best description you guys have ever come up with for a character.
i love how well the art style showed impact. like every strike you could just FEEL the force of it
thats the addition of 2D animation, and the show is all done "on the 1's" so your eye catches those impacts but doesnt really notice the 2D blasts.
@Graxxor Anandro Vidhelssen Ohh can you recommend anyone in particular? I’d love to learn more
Absolutely.
I have never known that I needed such an artstyle.
I am not sure I have ever seen a show like that where every single time you might pause it you are looking at a 10/10 wallpaper.
The impacts of the fight in jayce and vi vs chem guards were on a whole other level
That fight was insane
Arcane, the best prequel I’ve watched. Coming from a Non-League of Legends fan.
Prequel? It's more like a mid-quel.
A prequel to runeterra lore would be the runewars or the war for Icathia.
Coming from a LoL-Lore-nerd.

@@bluntlyhonest6803 would that not be more of the Old Republic? Don’t know much about league but that’s the impression I was getting.

Okay, I will not sit here and listen to you disparage Sevika. That poor woman went through hell with these two crazy sisters, and deserves a nice getaway somewhere for a week or two.
(I know, if anyone called Sevika a “poor woman” to her face, she’d probably pick them up and spear them head first into the ground like a tent peg. So don’t do that.)
I recommend this show to everyone who mentions they’re looking for a new show. I need it to come out on DVD so I can keep it forever and ever.
It is literally one of the best animated shows ever made

I've heard of League of Legends but never played it. But this show I will watch for the sheer BEAUTY of it.
Tell me how it goes!
You’re in for a treat. Expect a cavity!
My brother was the one that talked me into watching it. His words were, "Watch Arcane. DON'T play League of Legends." Some gamers are just that toxic, it seems.
@@eryne_erin The toxicity isn't the issue, there's a reason why you can fully disable in game chat. The issue is that the client is God awful, every time they fix a bug, they create 4 more, because the entire game is based off of ten years of spaghetti code, the game design team stopped actually playing the game years ago, and are out of touch with what the player base actually wants, the balance is an atrocity against man, riot refuse to admit that their last actually balanced champ was Jhin, even then they broke him with the item reworks and to top it off, the company who owns Riot is Tencent, so the game is a disguise for Chinese spyware.
And yet I still play it because of 11 years of Stockholm Syndrome towards the game.
Maybe don’t and leave it to the league fans whose been waiting for years for this show ! Don’t join a hyped show while bashing what it’s from
So no one’s talking about that perfect EEEEEEEEEEE at 4:35, huh.
The "What if Dreamworks still cared?" line hits different now that we have The Last Wish.
I went in hesitant about if I would like this show but ended up loving it. The artwork is stunning. The music is awesome. And I want ALL their clothes!
My dad recommended the show to me and he’s usually right about when something is really good
Same, same, same!
I recommend buying a belt, or dozen. To start.
BUCKLE UP!
"there are very fine people on both sides"
killed me :)
You know a show is genuinely good when here in the comments you see no one at all roasting it.
COnsidering it took this guy forever to come up with a honest trailers
This show is 9 hours of angst with no resolution and I loved every minute
I watched the first 3 episodes of this show and it felt like watching Star Wars all over again, but with a concept so fresh and original, and characters unique and loveable.
This show deserves *ALL* the love it gets!
Yess, nothing better than some good ol trade disputes
Sadly my girl Rek'Sai will likely never get her time in the spotlight... tears...
THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE IT THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IT INTO WORDS
"Where magic is like science, and science is like CrossFit"
That one killed me 😂
"What if Dreamworks still cared?".
Well, THAT quote didn't age well.
"while everyone who's evil is physically deformed."
Victor: am I a joke to you?
seriously though, the show is amazing 🤩
They never showed Jayce destroying the Hexcore, only a conversation with Victor asking Jayce to do it, admitting that he himself cannot.
This could imply that the hexcore now has some control/link with Victor. I wouldn't be surprised if season 2 shows us that Jayce did not get around to destroying the Hexcore, and during the Chaos of Jynx's attack on the council, Victor was compelled to grab the hexcore/keep it safe, further solidifying the connection between Victor and Hexcore.
In other words, I'm anticipating Viktor falling completely under the influence of the Hexcore in season 2 and becoming an antagonist. Perhaps the hexcore encourages him to turn to Noxious and that man that Mel's mother mentioned, the one killed Mel's brother. I think that's Darius and the hexcore will encourage Viktor to turn to Darius for funding of future hexcore research.
I mean if you know how Viktor is in LOL lore...
"Enter a world where everyone is covered in buckles."

it actually goes: kh1=zippers > kh2=belts/buckles > kh3=plaid
Zippers and belts.
DiZ rocks the belt eyepatch far better than he has any right to

usually these trailers are so good they make me not want to watch something i intended to watch. but i had no idea this existed and now i really wanna watch it.
you absolutely should, one of the best series I've ever seen
I'm curious to know if you've seen it since making this comment and if so what you thought.
So, have you watched it yet?
thanks for asking, guys, but i'm the type to never follow through on my word.
i have not watched it lol
@@geekdiggy How dare you. Report yourself for immediate penance at your earliest convenience.
"Who reload their fists like Henry Cavill."
I can't...
"Worlds okayist dad" for Silco got me laughing way too hard
This show is no doubt a Cinematic masterpiece
This show made me care about something I couldn't have cared less about!
"Enter a world where everyone is covered in buckles."
Tetsuya Nomura: Nani?!
3:50 oh god, I knew what would happen but still.. killed me
I hate League and want nothing to do with it
But this show was showing up on Every youtube channel i watch, no matter what the channel was normally like
So i gave it a chance
And was blown away
This show was an emotional roller coaster
Also afterwards i looked up some stuff and found out theres a bit in a spin off where Vi and Jinx reconcile. When i watched it i didnt even realize how such a small thing would be so therapeutic for something i didnt evem realize i needed that for
This show is beyond amazing.
Ignore League, embrace Arcane
What is the spin off?? I need it!
@@riven5544 its a card game or something
A hearthstone rip off
@@riven5544 Legends Of Runeterra. tho they aren't that reconciled
Play League of Legends anyway
Spin off? Where?
I started dying 🤣 after 1:20, with the parallel between Jinx & Lin Manuel Miranda
The LOL: WHUT at the end was actually the most hilarious piece in this honest trailer for me
Of all the shows I've watched since I was a little kid, this show takes the cake. All the characters are relatable in their ways. Perfection.
3:24 I didn’t even realize that, accurate!!🤣😂😂!!
I’ve never played a game of LOL in my life, but I loved this show. Even if the storylines and characters hadn’t been great, the animation style alone made it worth it to me to watch every episode.
Your finest Honest Trailer yet. Excellent balance of sarcasm and insightful wit. Full marks, top of the class.
„world’s okayest dad” got me 😭
One of, if not, the greatest animations I've ever seen... A hard fight between this and Spirited Away for me...
Dota has some insane animation too. Its on netflix
@@SL1CEND1CEN nah
@@SL1CEND1CEN I liked all the Star Trek voice actors on DOTA and found it entertaining, but they are on different levels. Which makes sense considering their budgets, time frame and such. I like the idea of both getting to flesh out their different story lines, particularly if one can come out between seasons of the other.
Have you ever seen Princess Mononoke? I'd say that tops Spirited Away, especially on comparison to Arcane.
For me animation is about fluidity but barely any animated project competes with the character designs here, everyone feels so different in this show and it truly feels like a living breathing world.
The species thing is so true. I went into the show knowing nothing about league of legends so I was pretty confused when one of the main characters was a professor and also an adorable little creature
Professor Heimerdinger is what's called a yordle. And yes, 99% of yordles are adorable.
@@animegx45 Oh my gosh, "yordle" is the PERFECT name for them 🥺
@@animegx45 and the 1% is the literal devil *cough teemo
@@thebiggestx477 teemo is cute, lol. Don't let his gameplay distract you from his look
The species issue with yordles is simple: they're magic, live for centuries and come from a completely separate dimension.
They're natural do-gooders, even the singular one that wants to do evil eventually does good out of sheer happenstance. (a number of villages happily pretend they're scared of how evil Veigar is, while Veigar himself is content with getting rid of people that aren't scared of him, like bands of looters or thieves that plague the countryside. One of his iconic catchphrases is "I AM evil; stop laughing!". He wants to be evil so bad, but just can't do it properly)
"What if DreamWorks still cared" killed me
This show is one of the best things ever made. It's my second favorite show ever.
It has everything - the animation, the music, the story and characters that are hot and morally grey!
It makes me *so emotional* watching it, and I will be eternally grateful for that
Don’t forget the grotesque animal cruelty.
Also, spoilers, to answer the question, “are they ok?”
No, no they are not. Even if they survived, they are still very far from ok.
First rule of Arcane nobody is ok even without physical injuries all the character have psychological ones...
Ekko hurt his little leggy, Jinx: not so good
@@wrylysmiley Jinx would need probably a decade of therapy, but the other ones would need some too...
I want Jinx to start seeing a good therapist stat.
@@sqxbarto9229 A decade? Haahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhaha, mate A century of therapy couldn't even begin to fix her.
Best tv Show of 2021. Never played LoL. But this was just incredible.
"There are very fine people on both sides"
Sir excuse yourself how did you put Marcus in there?!?!
“Can’t jeopardise that China release!”
jokes on you, China release had a lot of scene cut out of it lmao
They also cut out quite a bit of the lore. Leona and Diana's story went from a few pages long to like half a line
