>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 Jinx today for saving western animation?
>>215582952Would be true if the second season reached the same heights that the first one did.
Doesn't she have a black boyfriend? And that's probably what you love most about Jinx.
>>215582952>compete against Japanit mogs everything japan makes these days
>>215582963It has its moments
>>215583067Your gif is running at about 2 frames per second
>>215582952that but this
>>215582952this show was doomed the moment people realized you can have cute girls without ugly nogs skulking around
Is it watchable if you know nothing (and I mean NOTHING) about LoL?
>>215583204Four frames per second, actually
>>215583601Ye
>>215583601Yes. In fact, most arcane fans have never played lol and never will
Sorry bitch. The queen of /tv/ is Rumi and Zoey is the princess
Two seasons of Arcane cost half a billion dollars. CalArts will remain the preferred style for Western animation.
>>215582952S1 is legitimately some of the best television of the last decade, animated or not. Shame about S2.
>>215582952>ugly and gay shit saving anythinglol no.
>>215583800>Jinx's hair was so long and hard to animate they had an entire team for it>The decision to cut her hair halfway through S2 was made to save money
>>215583825>>215582963Keep seething S2 was great
>>215583216>>215583308slit your wrists
>>215584241sorry nigger, the YELLOW man marches on
>>215583601If you play lol it might make your viewing miserable due to being, well, lol
I watched the first 2 eps but dropped it because it was too angsty and degenerateDid I miss out?
>>215584347The third episode was good. The fourth was shit again so I dropped it there
>>215584301The yellow man will march one... When they reveal Ionia is the next shows location
>>215584347It's like undercity degenerate, like people use drugs. Not The Boys degenerate, where everyone is a secret sadistic serial killer with weird fetishes
>>215582963>>215583825I'm still mad about that. All that potential and they threw it out the window for shitty lesbian melodrama, angsty over the top Jinx redemption melodrama, and don't get me started on what the fuck happened to Jayce and Viktor.
French animation is just the european Cal Arts
2025 and I'm still permabanning C*itlyn
keep in mind that despite arcane being massively successful, they gained net zero permanent players from it for league of legends the gamethat means they spent like $300,000,000 on a tv show advertising their game and lost money on the deal, and got nothing out of it
>>215582970Pretty sure that's "powder" in another timeline you're thinking of bro; last I heard Jinx hates ekko for siding with a bunch of Mafia Pilties, who left them to literally rot in toxic chemical fumes while covering half their half of the city in marbel, to steal a hexgem from Zaun that could have turned the tide of the revolution, liberating them from oppression....... leaving bleeding to death, from busting multiple ribs and organs having nearly beaten her to death with a lead pipe to the point where literally permenantly poisoning her with singed toxins was the only way to save her life.>But hey, then her sister went and slept with a tyrant who literally suspended habeus corpus and the right to peaceably assembly, just because she was hot and rich...... so what do I know about women?
>>215584711Implying you wouldn't let a 6 foot tall aristocratic fascist step on you and degrade you for being a filthy zaunite
>>215584835>So.... I hear even her showers are golden......
>>215584726Riot has a blank cheque from tencent. They're very much in a golden age Disney kind of mindset - "we make money to make films". They are going straight ahead with the next Arcane despite the loss.
>>215584835Jinx was doodling Ekko symbols all over her at the end, so they weren't on THAT bad terms
Japanese animation hasn't been able to compete for 20 years so it's not much of an achievement.The first season set a new par even for European animation, admittedly.
>>215584858He literally beat her to the point of death with a lead pipe, to side with the aristocratic oligarchs who left them to rot.It's sort of something that's hard to forget..... but hey, what do I know; maybe she and arcane Vi really are that shitty...... or maybe she actually does have the balls to bear a grudge, kill a bunch of "enforcers" to stage a revolution, while decapitating the oligarchy for their decades of thieving and corruption.Guess we'll fine out, if there's ever a return of Jinx to whatever follow up is to "Arcane", since she apparently magically zipped out of a side vent and survived that fall.Or maybe she'll fall for Garen, or some hot piece of Demacian aristocratic piece of tyrannical trash.... who knows...
>>215584880It's the ONLY serious animation the West has ever done. The closest is the Disney style strange looking bean mouth kind, or the waxy Incredibles kind, but Arcane is the West first real animation.>Derailed custom rigs, to the point of having multiple facial rigs for a single character >Hand drawn textures over models>Keyframe animation instead of mocap
>>215582952It's shit. It's woke beyond recognition, and the animation is crap, with mostly melodramatic or jerky emoting, and the camera constantly spinning around and slowing down.It's got every problem you can find in western entertainment and animation, and even some you find in the faggiest anime.Watching this crap is the best way to turn yourself into a tranny, considering no man would willingly watch this shit for the sake of entertainment.
>>215584924>the West first real animationI can smell the Delhi slum stench from here
>>215584924Are you retarded?
>>215584844If anyone would know I guess it'd be jinx
>>215584963>>215584964Yeah le smug face Disney doesn't count. From a technical perspective the japs have been destroying the West for decades. You want to know the competition?>Akira slide>Hand drawn cel animation for every frame>Such iconic framing and motion it's still imitated to this day>Average Ghilbi flick>Beautifully drawn wallpaper-esque image for every frame
^don't reply to the bait
>>215582952Imagine running pr for this dyke, coal burner, söyboy shit
>>215585031Jesus fucking christ the 9,0000th fucking Akira post? Cool. Great, you know about retro anime. It was art.It will never, ever happen again. The japs do not have the capacity to make something like this again due to the same risk aversion / skill issues as the west with using practical effects.Pic related is the truth of current jap animation.
>>215585036Unironically what is even the peak of western animation? There are many great animated movies but the technical quality of the animation itself has never been that good. The peak is probably the crazy shit they did to animate ice in Frozen.
>>215585065Looks soulful. Cope and seethe
>>215585065Yes which is why I said peak. And Arcane quite likely will never happen again outside of Riot. Riot/Fortiche can do it because Tencent's infinite money is bankrolling them. Japan still has a lot of high quality stuff like Demon Slayer/One Piece. But yes it's definitely gotten worse from the peak.
>>215585031>Artistically mogged
>>215585069old Disney animation is crazy good, I don't know what you meanhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o4jlZoBGQeEThere's also studio Laika making some of the best stop-motion in the world and they're still active. The West still has talent
>>215585161>watching Coraline as a kid>Coraline is so cool!>watching Coraline now>Coraline is kinda a bitch
>>215585218Congratulations, you feel for the propaganda
>>215583800Half the cost was on promotion/marketing.
>>215585031>Hand drawn cel animation for every frameMaybe in the 90's.
>>215585254Did they even promote it? There was so little news a hundred million views on the Noxus trailer was Arcane fans
>>215583800The entire series was 250 millions for two seasons with marketing. Where the fuck did you get your numbers?
>>215585146>high quality stuff like>fucking gay slayer and Onions Piecekill yourself unironically
>>215584903bro the animators are massive blacked fetishists, they're never going to animate a white male having heterosexual sex
>>215584924while i'm sure they did have different models with different rigs for different shots your picture is easily achieved with a little bit of face posing and some basic shapekeys
I'm watching Kill la Kill and I think its cool and good. What now cockfags?
>japan japan japankek rent free
>>215582952The problem, as usual, are the writers and showrunners being soicucks obsessed with pushing their contemporary Californian politics in a fantasy setting. No amount of artistic competence can overcome that.
>>215582952>didn't know anything about french animation until a video game netflix adaptationretard. shit you didn't even notice the better netflix animations that came our earlier
>>215585065Arcane fucking WISHES it had something as kino as the coalition arc in Kingdom
>>215582952its ugly trans lighting tumbler style, so saving nothing. fact they fired all writers and let couple women handle season 2 should tell you how little they give a fuck too.
Pretty good even if it was forced animation
>>215586182Okay but the anime is bad.
>>215586483How DARE you say my wife is ugly She is incredibly cute and pretty
>>215582952It's literally Steven Universe all over again. The whole show is about tortured, sad lesbians in a shinier coat of paint.
>>215586540The manga is drawn like shit but it doesn't matter much if the story is good. Arcane s2 looks phenomenal but it's written like a middle schooler's fanfiction
>>215582952>Japan>not animation fag>straight men
>>215582952It's the only example I can think of where Season 1 is a 10/10 and Season 2 is a 1/10.
>>215582952Literally every French cartoon has nudity except this one. Explain that.
>>215582952good show, gay fanbase
>>215587129The composition of the fanbase is truly bizzare. I have never seen such a high concentration of lesbians.
>>215582952>Can compete Isn't it like 10 times as expensive as Cyberpunk edgerunners?Edgerunners was a bit better too
true
>>215588179My reaction seeing my waifu I loved since she was released get hugged by some coon
