With the wait finally over, just over three years after the initial release of the first season, Arcane season 2 is finally here, and it is getting rave reviews online from fans and critics. The first season of Arcane was released to Netflix on November 6, 2021, with nine total episodes.
Similar to the first season of Arcane, the animation of the second season so far is nothing short of spectacular. Between the colors and flow of movement from the characters, the animation is holding up to what fans were hoping for.
The opening sequence is purely amazing… The colours, the animation, the foreshadowing…

It is not just the animation that has fans roaring about the opening of Arcane season 2, many people are blown away at the story, characters, and the narrative that we have seen so far. While a lot has happened in the first three episodes, they stood as build up for what is to come in the rest of this season.
Unsure how to fully feel about #Arcane season two. The animation’s great as ever and its big moments in the first two acts sure hit, but its pacing means some characters are too siloed off from everyone else. Hoping act 3 brings it all home. pic.twitter.com/pi2YzKYOc6

The cast has once again shown their full effort with brilliant voice acting. Ella Purnell (Jinx), Hailee Steinfeld (Vi), Kevin Alejandro (Jayce), and the rest of the cast are knocking it out of the park.
I have watched the first six episodes of Arcane S2, and it’s a testament to what an outstanding show should consist of. It has groundbreaking animation with storytelling that’s masterfully crafted, taking it above and beyond what Season 1 was capable of.

The first part of Arcane season 2 released on Saturday November 9, 2024, with part 2 releasing Saturday November 16, and part 3 Saturday November 23. With three installments of this season, fans wonder how the story will be broken up. Will it seem like a play with three different acts, focusing on different characters or plot points? Alternatively will it simply be just one continuous series just broken up into three parts.

In addition to all of this, many fans are wondering what the next two parts of Arcane season 2 have in store for us. Between the theories of the character Vander from season 1, voiced by JB Blanc, becoming the League of Legends character Warwick, to what will become of Viktor and his new powers and abilities after fusing with the Hex Core. Fans are surely in for a wild ride for the rest of season 2 of Arcane.

Will it be part 2 of Arcane season 2 that delivers us who Warwick really is, and what his, or its motives will be?
Seeing THIS moment rendered in Arcane definetly gave me some chills. Also really highlights Warwick’s monstrousness, in just how BIG he is compared to Singed. He could crush the man in one hand
ngl Warwick’s probably what I’m most excited to see coming in to season 2 pic.twitter.com/ti8571j46W
