Previously, I wrote a short, but positive review at the end of Season 1, stating how excited I was for Season 2.

I absolutely despise when great shows are cancelled. However, in this instance I truly wish it had been cancelled after Season 1. At least we would have been left with a positive memory and with our imaginations running wild.

It’s difficult to review Season 2, without giving anything away, therefore I will try and keep my words brief…

WTF! The last episode was an absolute joke and a huge cop out. Who on earth came up with it? Someone very lazy or maybe with an axe to grind? I was literally spitting feathers. There were many amazing possibilities to explain the show to date.

Maybe they were told unexpectedly towards the end of Season 2 it was to be cancelled and they had to come up with something very quickly?

In honesty, I did find Season 2 a tad boring even before reaching the worst ever final episode in history. I felt the show wasn’t progressing , even a tad repetitive. But, I wasn’t put off, due to many shows having their boring episodes.

Wrapping things up; I really don’t feel like wasting anymore of my time, especially given the horrendous ending…PLEASE DO NOT WATCH SEASON 2. You will be sorely disappointed and in danger of being furious.

It made me remember an American TV Show from the 80’s I think, who pulled the same stunt. The media had a field day, with nothing nice to say. If I state the name of this well known show, I imagine you’ll guess what fate awaits you, in the final episode. But, my lips are sealed.

Do you dare watch? Or finish on Season 1, with your happiness intact?

Good luck :)

PS. Not related to the show, but thought I’d point out I’m Dyslexic. Please forgive any mistakes I make. I do check my rants before clicking submit, but alas I still miss too many blunders.

I think this is my favorite animated show of the decade ! I have never really been a League of Legends player, I started playing when Jinx was released, played a few and then stopped. When I saw they did a show about LoL, I thought that I wouldn't really be into it because I wasn't in the game, but I was soo wrong.. Whether it is for the story, the animation or even the music, every single second of it is a masterpiece. I don't even have the words to describe how I feel, the strong impression it left me, I can't stop thinking about it. All the characters have a lot of subtilities and depth, you can understand they past stories and their choices, even a second plan character can make you feel interests, empathy. The universe they created is complex and you want to know more about it. I know I said it before but the animation is really flawless. I am so thankful for the huge work the Fortiche studio made, in the writing, animation, sound, everything ! (also I'm a little bit proud because it's a French studio haha, so happy that they created something like that).
I think my favorite part in this show is when Jinx is creating Hex tech in her lab while listening to her own theme music that was released at the beginning of the creation of the character in the game hahaha, with Silco's reacting as a real father, it was funny, loved it ! You can feel the evolution of your beliefs about the character, when the music was released I was like "oh my God she's so crazy and don't give a f about anything, she's so funny I love her!" and after finishing Arcane it hit me different, I though "wow... that's sad, I would like to help her".
Anyway, best show of the year year and more, even if you don't like animated stuff, video games or I don't know, WATCH ARCANE, you can't imagine what you're missing.. It's unique :sparkling_heart:

I was somewhat shocked when I started to turn this in and saw the netflix logo - I disliked many of their original productions. Luckily, this wasn't one of them (plus just the licensing got bought it seems)!

Anyway, this is an anime about scammers doing genius jobs, and the anime is divided into multi-episodes cases, that are mostly disconnected with each other. You can think Detective Conan/Case Closed or Black Lagoon.

I think it gets quite a lot of things right: The animation of scenes or talks aren't too long nor too short, the cases in themselves are pretty exciting, just like the animes above, and you really wonder how they are going to pull it off - especially when things don't go their way!

While it is M-rated, it is not really bloody much, but does feature adult themes like drug trafficking.

Fun fact: Given some comments of him, it seems that Laurent is sexually playful or indeed bisexual.

Be like: Catch me if you can (Live-action), Dr. Stone (planning in advance of actions), Ocean's insert-number (live-action, not watched, but I should have gotten the idea about it), Detective Conan/Case Closed (from the opposing side, so maybe
