>Saves Western animation from the death spiral of CalArts bean mouths and unoriginal primetime shows that have long since jumped the shark>Proves Western animation can compete against JapanHave you thanked Arcane today for saving western animation?
>>151056948>didn't happen>really didn't happenArcane did nothing
arcane is a psyop to convince people that league of legends is more than a containment zone for dysgenic idiots
>>151056948It's so expensive that it can't actually save anything. I guess maybe Blue Eye Samurai exists because of it though.
>>151056948Arcane is french animation.
>>151057175The characters are American
>>151057195The cartoon is barely a cartoon
>>151057195So? This animation came from France, who treat animation with far more respect than the west who go for as cheap and shitty as possible.
>>151056948Arcane is good rigshit, but it's still rigshit. Only traditional animation can save the industry. I know this for a fact, because traditional animation is what I personally enjoy.
>>151057213It's animation
>>151057231France is part of the WestSay America when you mean America
>>151056948It’s too bad that the writers were incompetent.
>>151057031It’s actually a psyop to convince you that the lesbian fascist is a good guy.
>>151056948>As soon as they know they are popular, they insert a forced interracial romance and gay musical numbers in season 2>season 2 doesn't review nearly as well as the firstwestern companies just keep doing it over and over again
>>151056948>Proves Western animation can compete against JapanWhich way white man?- A country that spreads out its talent and finances evenly across a broad range of demographics and produces at least 3 masterpieces a year, all of varying subject matter and artstyles?OR- An entire half of the world that can only scrounge up one good thing once every 7 years and has to launder billions of dollars in order to make it. Oh and by the way the writing isn't even good. Oh and by the way its spiderverse style again.
>>151058122>Oh and by the way its spiderverse style againSo, it looks good
>>151058122You could swap those points places easily except for the spiderverse sentence.And spiderverse looked godawful. No idea what you've seen in it, but considering that you decided to attribute 3 masterpieces a year to animes, I kinda see what went wrong.I wouldn't say western had 3 masterpieces a year, that's a little excessive, but at least once a year compared to east's once a decade or so.Nothing good released since Pluto in 2023, that's quite recent, but I don't even remember when something good before it released. All I can think of were straight manga adaptations from 10-15 years ago or more.
>>151058122Western animation's biggest issue right now is being too centralized. There's a certain degree of decentralization with anime as studios are standalone, not vertically integrated into larger brands
Shame they cratered the show, the story, and the IP forever in order to pander to tumblr homosexuals and fucking blac*ed coomers
>>151058122Arcane looks nothing like Spider-Verse, Arcane actually looks good instead of looking like diarrhoea
>>151056948OP here, I posted the wrong image sorry
i honestly think the only way to save western animation is to stop trying to compete against japan and stop thinking about anime but that seems impossible now
>>151057031The series distance itself greatly from League, none of the characters in Arcane are close to their league counterparts.>>151057637She was misguided and manipulated by someone else.
>>151056948>Immediately shits the bed in the second season
>>151056948>Saves Western animationCome on buddy we've all seen that abortion called "Season 2"
>>151056948>coalburner protagonistpass
>>151059026AU powder was a coal burner. Which is to say, the shippers dreams are only true in another reality.
>OP has to bring up beanmouth to justify enjoying paid advertisements
>>151059868all big budget animated movies are basically paid advertisements for selling merch
i wanked to the animation of her fucking her own gun and accidentally shooting herself in halfis that the animation you're talking about? I don't play the game so idk
Every night I pray that I'll wake up next to Jinx but this is an evil reality where dream go to die, so it never happens. I hate the Antichrist.

>>151057574France is brown.
>>151056948>Saves Western animationMore like kept it on life support
>>151056948Season 01:>Carefully crafted tale of 2 sisters going on different paths while dealing with a techno-fascist system where class war is the norm.>Both the elite and the lower caste are shown to have good and bad people in it>Great "loss of innocence" themes throughout with Ekko, Jinx, Vi, Cait and even JayceSeason 02:>Slop to set up more shows>rushed ending to the story of the 2 sisters>completely abandons the class war aspect of the show to focus on ~le outside enemy
>>151058627Being misguided doesn’t excuse becoming a ruthless dictator. Your internal morals are expected to be better than that.
>>151062819I genuinely think the class war stuff in the first season was almost accidental. Sort of like how we found out the story of bioshock 1 is accidentally good after playing infinite. The series didn’t seem to understand that the wealthy were directly responsible for the poor being poor. They treated the class divide as jealousy, not one side imposing it upon the other.
>>151056948Does it though?
>>151056948Saves them Westerns, bros.
I'd rather have Vi over jinx t b h.
>>151056948Arcane season 2 invalidates everything season 1 did and proves why western animation is in the toilet.It just immediately becomes a dogpile of incoherent oppression politics, which are 'resolved' with corporation approved rebellion and 'inclusion'.
>>151063228The class war is absolutely accidental. The story is set up as a traditional "haves vs have-nots", but the characters in-story and the writers themselves view the story as "the nation of haves vs the nation of have-nots", and at the end it's all wrapped up with "awww, the have-nots get one seat at the table, look we're a democracy now!" Which is just neoliberal garbage.Either go full commie and have the poor hang the rich, or go full nationalist and let Zaun be independent. Instead we get a return to status quo with a very small asterisk.
>>151060202Many such cases.
>>151056948Season 2 completely fucked the show and any goodwill it had.
>>151057992>forced interracial romancei think the bigger issue was dykes actually. there were like seven of them
>>151066646The issue was the exact opposite, the politics and characterization were the most compelling parts of Arcane's story and then S2 pivoted towards a "save the world" storyline that immediately resolved the Piltover vs Zaun conflict that defined S1.It's the ASOIAF problem all over again. The best part was the character drama and politicking but the story is inherently about a giant zombie invasion encroaching the world and everyone needing to unite against it, which is way less interesting.
>>151056948Can we actually saves westerners now?
>>151059868They actually spent an ungodly amount for no rise in league player count. And it's quite visible that arcane fans don't gaf about league
>>151067518How can a girl be perfect in every version of her?
>>151056948>>>/v/
>>151062819>Season 2>Let's spend a third of it on explained black rose gibberish
>>151060063As much as I love jinxy poo wouldn't she beat you to death
>>151056948too expensive to save western animation
>>151057637it's also a psyop to make the liberal jayce who makes plans with wealthy elites to crush the oppressed lower classes and make revolutionaries like Viktor look like insane people"glorious evolution" instead of glorious revolution
>>151056948>commercial for rigged EOMM matchmaking>spyapps like porofessor are cheating/pay to play. observers see someone on a loss streak so teammates don't help them and opposing team gangs up on them, which feeds in to the EOMM algorithmi wonder how many employees at riot and tencent own stock in the company that owns porofessor
