Critics Consensus

Expansive in scope while hurtling towards the endgame at a rollicking pace, Arcane's second and final season is a supremely satisfying capper to an epic saga.

In true Arcane form, the visuals literally paint a sad but gorgeous image of Jinx feeling unmoored without someone to follow.

They really hit the ground running, and at the end of the first episode, I knew this season wasn’t going to let up.

"Arcane" continues to be the most visually stunning and dense series on television today, demonstrating why animation remains the most daring medium for creatives to convey a potent narrative. One can only hope for more stories from this vast universe.

Once again, Arcane proves its worth as a spectacle and one of the more impactful animated show of our time, even if it can't quite capture the magic of season one.

Rated: 9/10

It is stratospheric. Rarely have the goalposts for what animation can do moved so dramatically, not only on a technical front but on an emotional one.

Rated: 5 / 5

There’s a consistent interplay between the relationships between characters and the real-life tensions they symbolically represent.

The more one enjoyed season one and the longer you sit with season 2, the worse it annoys. Its a spectical, no doubt, and a technical marvel like season 1 but the show fundamentally rushes through every idea it has and narative justification for decsisions made by characters is scant. These formerly exceptional characters are dragged around by the plot. Its hard to pinpoint any individual moment that's "bad" on the face of it, but if season 1 was greater than the sum of its parts, season two is absolutely lesser. They story they chose to tell isn't one I personally rate, but had they taken their time to tell it (perhaps another season) then they could have made it work. They didn't. If you watched season 1, season 2 is worth watching just to see how media can be competent, yet a mess. For the first week after I saw it I felt like I was suffering a head injury with the whiplash between online takes on the show and the show I saw. I would love to have seen what they saw, honestly. Watch it if you find media more interesting that how much you loved season 1. If season 1 is your favourite, write a fan-fic. it will be as good as this but take a direction you like.

Arcane season 1 is a flawless masterpiece. Season 2 is a flawed masterpiece. Bit disappointed with Jinx and Vi; pacing is too fast near the end, some plot related things were not for me. But overall, fantastic. 9/10.

Cinematically masterpiece genuinely enjoyed all the detail and intense storyline. The parallels are so satisfying and every character is written so beautifully with such depth. Is the BEST show I have ever watched and that’s saying a lot.

This is an absolute masterpiece, from the animation style to the characters to the story itself. This show will forever be in mind. It had me captivated from the first scene with the beautifull artwork, and from the next scene by the well written story and chracters.
