Could you blame them? For a decade, a ton of people were looking for an adaptation that they could look forward to. All these companies had to do is watch and supervise their IPs, but none did that unlike Riot who actually had their hands deep in the development of Arcane.

One thing I don't see many people talking about that often is the animation. I get it, the story and writing are so good that people really want to talk about it but I feel like the animation is under appreciated. All the details on the characters and backgrounds, the movement, facial expression, colors, the way every character looks completely unique when it comes to face and body, even the way they have "imperfections" like scars, rough skin or small tooth gaps...it just makes everything feel so much more real and impressive. To me Arcane is honestly the best 3D animated show of the decade. Nothing I've watched so far can top it.

As you and others have said. It's good because it's focused on telling everyone's stories well and in a well-paced manner. It doesn't waste time. Nearly every single moment progresses the story in some way. But in those moments, they manage to hide easter eggs here and there for fans to find. And while it's not the most well hidden, my favorite so far was the Kindred mask when Vi and Cait visit the brothel for info.

I’m amazed at how well so much of the foreshadowing is handled for people who already know the lore. It gives them little things they can get giddy over throughout the show, like jayce putting down his mug and obstructing viktor from view, or the pocketwatch and scarf of the leader of the Firelights (which, POSSIBLE SPOILER WARNING, heavily implies he is ekko).

I think the most impressive part is how Arcane doesn't require any knowledge about League at all. I know a lot of people that didn't know shit about League and loved every second of Arcane. Every character feels so well developed, but in a way that lets you know them of you didn't, but doesn't feel boring or redundant if you did. The story is fantastic, the attention to detail is impeccable and it's extremely entertaining for every second of it. Can't wait for the final arc, and hope we get more series like these, based on different parts of League lore

The League universe is brimming with interesting conflicts and interesting characters: The mage rebellion in Demacia, the Noxian invasion of Ionia, the return of Azir in Shurima, the Watchers... _Just everything about the Watchers._ The list goes on.

Will post this on reddit but I noticed that Silco said, "I killed a weak one that day, and another was reborn". And u could say this happened to multiple people too. In some ways, life finds a way to fk u up that it kills u, or leaves something else. Jayce betrayed Heimer, blinded by his righteous goals of fixing the city Viktor realizes that he is still an assistant, even in his nearing death Vi still regrets her actions Heck even Marcus has one, trying his best to fill in the shoes of that previous captain, you can see the stress going into him when he imagined killing himself Powder dies when she killed her loved ones, and what was born was someone who had to cope with everything by accepting that she really is a curse, Jinx.
