In 2021 Arcane is an animated show based on the popular game League of Legends and it was released exclusively on Netflix. I remember when it was first released everyone was talking about it my friends and the people on the internet. Everyone praised it for being such a good show it even has 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. For some reason, it just never grabbed my attention so I never watched it during the hype of the show being released. That is until this year I ended up giving the show a chance and the only reason I did was because my partner who adores this show wanted me to watch it, so we did. I was going into this show blindly I knew nothing about the story, characters, etc. After watching the show I got to say I wished I watched it when it was first released.
The story was amazing the first episode hooked me and how they introduced the characters, the plot, the setting, and more. The animation of the show is amazing and the character designs are just so well made that each character feels unique. The voice acting is top-notch anything there’s a serious or sad moment you can tell that the voice actors are giving their all in their performance for this show. The majority of the characters are likable and some aren’t because the story does such a good job of making you hate them. When I was watching this show I feared for these characters’ lives because people do that in this show so if you have a favorite character then just prepare yourself because you don’t know if they will be next to die. The funny thing is I had a favorite character I liked in the first episode because they are voiced by Roger Craig Smith who is a voice actor I like and they also voiced Sonic The Hedgehog, but they do end up dying around episode 2 or 3. Overall, I had a great time watching this show with my partner and I can’t wait for season 2 to come on this month, but sadly this will be their last season, and with the cliffhanger that season 1 ended with I can’t wait to see were this story goes and how it all wraps up.
