Arcane is one of the most beautiful, well-crafted and thought-provoking series I've seen in a while. Not just in animation. But as a series in and of itself. I could make thousands of videos surrounding this series, but I've yet to see massive discussion on the way the creatives at Fortiche so perfectly drove the narrative within a development of careful decisions regarding Arcane's environment.

I had MORE than a blast creating this video. Every single scene could be screenshot and used as a phone/pc background. So I hope you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed creating it! And I'll catch you next time!

    Arcane is undoubtedly an epitome of atmosphere-fueled storytelling.
  • One of Arcanes best attributes is how every element used to illustrate the difference between the 2 cities no matter how small feels considered. Like consciously you'd not think about food carrying any significance and it's never really brought up but the way it shows Zaun relying more on meat compared to Piltover using more sweet foods e.g cakes. Is a nice way of showing the luxury/conditions that one has over the other.

    i just realized from the editing in your essay that Silco was "reborn" in water while Powder's fall from grace moment was wreathed in flames. thats cool.
  • i don't watch a lot of animation but arcane was drop dead gorgeous. right up there with spider-man: into the spiderverse. so well done. there were a lot of times where i had to rewind because i got lost in the art and was studying it more than following the story.

    Just finished this series this afternoon so perfect timing to feed my growing obsession.

    Thank you, environmental storytelling is a term I wasn't familiar but I noticed about the show. Arcane is a masterpiece of animation and storytelling; even my dad who hates animated works was impressed
  • The fact that out of all the popular video games out there, it was League of Legends that got one of the best series adaptations for you to review. As always, you donā€™t disappoint šŸŽ‰

    Excellent video Dani! The thing I loved the most about it was how you edited the audio and the music. So subtle, yet so powerful. The moment at 4:05 was stellar, how you edited the audio with the closing of the fist that perfectly conveys what you were going for šŸ‘Œ
  • @muffinslawl
    Excellent work again! And your editing is literally SOOOO MASTERFUL!
  • @ferzemkhan1993
    Great editing and video as always! The bridge scene of Silco and Jayce is one of my favourite examples of the environmental storytelling. The bridge is reminiscent of the past conflict yet the only hope of compromise, set against a twilight red sky that exists between the light of Piltover and the darkness of Zaun, yet can turn into a violent red in the blink of an eye
  • @gobi7764
    Lines in motion covering arcane? Best thing ever!! Wohoo
  • @KevinNyaa
    Arcane IS Anime and no one can tell me otherwise! Excellent work, very aesthetically subtle editing!
  • @Hanlunn
    I was excited for peopleā€™s dissection of Arcane as soon as I watched it, and this video really itched that analysis urge. bless.
  • @Sorine9
    I never noticed how Piltovers framing accentuates its symmetry. Brilliant.
  • @Halalex_
    Just discovered your channel, and I just have to say that the content is excellent in every sense of the word. We honestly don't deserve writing on this level, but that doesn't stop me from wanting more!
  • @beargojou5971
    Iā€™m so happy that you uploaded. Arcaneā€™s stylized artsyle is quite pleasing to my eyes.
