Arcane, writing from my experience of watching the first season.
One of the best drawn and animated western animation ever made - not that there's been much competition in this century.
One thing that really stuck out to me - as someone aware of both Western and Japanese animation, was how unique its art-style was compared to other series. It had an amazing and beautiful character design without coming off as overly-saccharine, it had genuine slums and the filth that so characterized them, but it wasn't afraid of portraying beauty and elegance in other scenes - this being the Zaun / Piltover contrast.
Time is short so I can't go on as much as I'd like. But I recommend any anon itt to watch the first episode if he can, admittedly you might not enjoy the story, but I think you might appreciate its visual artistry.

I watched the first season of Arcane a couple of months ago. It was good. You're right about the animation style. It's something wholly unique. The characters are alright if a bit cliche, the plot is good. But from what I can tell it does fall off with the second season.

From what I've heard about the show Riot Games intentionally stamped new animation techniques together with the studio out of nothing and that's why it looks unlike anything else.

Wow, this is remarkable. I just started exploring Symbolism and now I can add Redon to my list. Thanks, man

 No.244

>>238
Your second paragraph explains a lot, I can only hope these animation techniques spread among the medium, after all Arcane was only released in

>2021


so 4 and a half years back. Maybe it was lightning-in-a-bottle. Well at least we got Dishonored, not quite the same graphically - especially in lighting - but similar enough.

Did you watch any episode of season 2? I'm curious as to how the writers stumbled, from what I've heard they ignored the Zaunite-Piltovian war entirely . Crass mistake if true, especially with all the built-up for it in season 1.

Odd, the woman among the colors shows no eyes. Why did Odilon draw her like that?

Really like the ambience in this piece. The geese and sea creatures making of the background. Reminds me a little bit of Max Ernst's la femme cent tetes.
