I don't care for anime but this series' animation looks like hot garbage
I wont even type a argument for this post. It's so low IQ its leaves no room for agruments.
>moron says nothing: the post
You think it looks good? It looks like the most Tumblr inspired shit ever
>blablabla tumblttumblr blablabla
no argument, only facts
>a argument

gottem
cringe
extreamly based
same poster btw
dilate
The animation is objectively great. Every frame is alive. There are no still shots with only mouths moving that you see so frequently in anime.
You don't like the design or aesthetic. That's completely different.
Bold claim but may I direct you towards
If you want to pick apart frames go for it, the feel of the fight is fricking awesome.
>tiktok acting
>Black person music
great
Performance and Jive are IN, much to your chagrin. Maybe in your next life, eh bud?
rewrite what you wrote and maybe I can answer to you
Learn a single language.
Anyone who is able to write off an entire genre of music is a fool. But if you don't like Black person music I guess rock and jazz are off the table for you too?
What do you like instead of what you hate anon? It's genuinely a more interesting conversation.
Yo! I dahdn't wrahte off a entahre genre of musahc, ahs jus' dat ahs completly engahneered for zoom zoom braahns lahke yas, fer shure, a' ahs so overused, (IF THERE IS A homie YOU HAVE TO HAVE "homie" (produced by 3 whahte dudes) MUSIC IN AHT)a baht of homieh dare, mostly, ra'om homie geezer rappahng some "deep" stuff, "I'm actahng!" eeasyghlywhere a' ya 'as a 10/10 slop
holy fricking cringe, please tell me this is some teenager's edit for youtube instead of an actual scene from the show
Nope from the show and it looks great. But please elaborate on what you don't like beyond a buzzword like cringe, try and communicate your thoughts.
Duuuuuhh
>thing I think I'm supposed to like
BASED
>thing I've been told to hate
CRINGE
Am I fitting in yet?
To Cinemaphiles culture as a whole yeah. To another anon who is trying to have an honest conversation not really.
Again do you actually have a thought on what you don't like about that scene?
yeah the animation is good, but cringe is an emotional response, also known as second hand embarrassment, kind of hard to put it into words you know
feels like one of those anime amvs that children make and upload to youtube or peaky blinder/sigma male edits
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0cmodERSCLA
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BWbijHlJjck
it's immature and childish and silly and if you don't get it i can only tell you to give it 10 years and you'll understand me.
this is embarrassing too
As always anon thanks, I like when people actually have thoughts. Didn't draw the comparison to Peaky Blinders but it's pretty fricking spot on. I think because it's animated it lends itself more to a "heightened" scene playing out without me getting cringe.
Of course I also enjoyed the animated Spiderman so maybe my 2nd hand embarrassment needs to involve real people for me to feel it.
yeah i get that, i treat animation and live action differently, not in this case though i guess
to think a bit more on it, i think this scene would have worked for me if the Black person music, as it were, was just a beat, without the lyrics. samurai champloo did a great job of incorporating hip hop and lo-fi into an incongruous setting
Probably true and this will sound insane for how busy the scene already is but I bet it was said "People will get bored if there is just music" but just the ticking of the clock and the baseline would've work.
And look at that I got a rec out of what I assumed was just replying to ironic shitposters, this site is alright.
>black male beats a white woman
French studio. Inspired by real events
i fricking hate ekko
dirty fricking urban youth champ
only lucian is okay because he's a Blade type homie
putting aside the embarrassing writing, how do people think this show looks good?
it's like they took Dishonored's artstyle, removed all the interesting bits, and then coated everything in a thin layer of dirt.
and they have all the actors over-emote all the time, making everything come off as incredibly fake even when they're trying to go for a realistic and mature tone.
like look at how much pointless shit there is here.
the first FULL MINUTE is filled with fricking NOTHING except:
>*sniff*
>*hmm*
>*sigh*
>(zoom in on some irrelevant bullshit)
>*head toss*
>*elongated sigh*
what the FRICK is the point of this? it would be CHEAPER and EASIER to make it look MORE REALISTIC.
what the frick is being communicated here? WHY do we need multiple shots of Jinx and Ekko scoffing and shaking their heads?
it's like that fricking Jojo bit where Polnareff and Hol Horse are laughing at each other but stretched out to A WHOLE FRICKING MINUTE.
and this is on top of the fact that the show is trying to play on the history of these two characters having known each other since they were little kids when we have never even see them speak to each other before.
what exactly am I supposed to be getting out of this? the show is just now telling me they were friends and now they're fighting and it's tragic apparently. but also I should be... enjoying this shitty animation and godawful rap?
how the FRICK do people legitimately find this shit acceptable, let alone good?
You know nothing about animation or filmmaking in general.
oh by all means, tell me more about how wasting an entire fricking minute on NOTHING but le smug anime faces is good from an animation or film-making perspective.
better yet, explain how it's great to waste multiple minutes on a scene that amounts to "guy clubs girl, hesitates, girl blows them both up" when the characters in the scene have zero emotional connection and the guy has gotten maybe two minutes of screentime, with no fricking dialogue or anything between the characters other than "muahahahaha look it's the boy saviour".
literally what the frick was the purpose of ANY of that other than "ooh pretty lights ooh what a trendy generic mumble rap song"?
>what is the purpose of a visual medium using visuals
kek, this.
Also,
>like Polnaref laughing for A MINUTE
That's the bit, moron. Of all the shit I've forgotten I still remember getting into laughing fits with friends where we would laugh until we couldn't breathe. Can't explain it, it just was. I like details like this in stories. Makes it seem real.
>what's with these cowboys just looking at each other while music plays?
Zoomzoom.
>wasting an entire fricking minute on NOTHING but le smug anime faces
I am sorry that you do not understand non-verbal language anon
>the first FULL MINUTE is filled with fricking NOTHING
And this is exactly why I said this
People are genuinely bored by a minute of setup and that's why they couldn't just leave the soundtrack without the vocals. Even with how busy that entire fight is this anon still thinks NOTHING is happening.
>People are genuinely bored by a minute of setup
what fricking setup?
WHAT IS THERE?
>she makes le angry face
>he makes le angry face and smiles
>she says "muahahahaha" and makes an evil face
what the frick is the show setting up? why in the frick am I supposed to care about Ekko in this show? he never fricking interacted with Jinx and he only exists to bail out the main characters when they're written into a corner. literally what am I supposed to feel when Jinx calls him "the boy saviour"? when the frick was that a thing? what is that even supposed to mean? what are we supposed to glean about their characters? what is the point of seeing them as kids in the gay little music video?
what the frick was the POINT of any of that shit?
fricking hell I haven't even gotten to how both of them survive the explosion with zero consequences, meaning literally the ENTIRE CLIP is filled with nothing but pointless fricking FILLER.
Nah I think we are done here. This'll just end with you throwing more epic memes out and me calling you a gay.
gay.
>Nah I think we are done here.
thanks for conceding the argument.
>What is character interaction?
after watching arcane I feel like I don't even know anymore.
>Go back to your shonenshit.
no thanks I've seen enough shitty animation to last a lifetime now.
>after watching arcane I feel like I don't even know anymore.
It's obvious your grasp on it was thin in the first place.
What is character interaction? What is character display? You are so stupid.
Go back to your shonenshit.
Ekko and Jinx were friends when they were kids. They worked together during the enforcer raid on the shop and their interactions imply that they are friends.
Them "making faces at each other" is them reminiscing over their childhoods and their conflicting emotions and gives insight into their mental state.
They are now on opposite sides of a war. "Boy savior" is said sarcastically and implies that they've had some history in this war which we as the audience are not privvy to, but can infer plenty from: Jinx sees Ekko as a moral busybody or a holier-than-thou butthole.
>both of them survive the explosion with zero consequences
Ekko is severely injured to the point where his role in the rest of the show is just to talk to Heimerdinger. This leads to both himself and Heimerdinger reflecting on their pasts and their plans for the future, forming a new friendship.
Jinx is nearly fricking killed, gets herself humbled, and leads to the Shimmer injection that completely breaks her already fragile mental state and leads directly to the climax of the season
It's not an overly complicated show, but you do need to pay mild attention to it and have an IQ above 70.
>jinx and ekko
>we have never even see them speak to each other before
>>we have never even see them speak to each other before
yes. I'm genuinely asking. did they even have a single line of dialogue directed at each other? I watched this entire fricking show and I can't remember anything.
>>what is the purpose of a visual medium using visuals
yes. what is the purpose? why did they make the decisions that they did?
>>what's with these cowboys just looking at each other while music plays?
generally the point is that you have characters, and relationships between those characters, as well as generally building tension.
there's no tension in this fight because Jinx should instantly win with her mary sue aiming skills, but then she just misses because reasons?
and there's no characterization beyond "haha you think you are a hero and that is lame" like the most pathetic cartoon villains.
so again: what is the purpose behind ANY of these choices?
>non-verbal language
what is the language being communicated?
>um Ekko's nostrils flare because he is ANGRY
truly a masterclass in visual storytelling. characters look angry when they are angry. thrilling.
>there's no tension in this fight because Jinx should instantly win with her mary sue aiming skills, but then she just misses because reasons?
>there's no tension in this fight because I wasn't paying attention to the "boring visuals" so I don't know what even happened
Just leave the thread dude.
's no tension in this fight
correct.
girl who is an established crack shot with a gun
vs.
dude with pipe
it's such horseshit that he wins that they had to speed up the actual fight to the blink of an eye to hide how stupid it looks.
>uh no dude he can dodge bullets because uhhhhhhhh he did it in the bideo game?
cope that has no bearing on the actual show.
>Ekko and Jinx were friends when they were kids.
something we are told, never shown.
>They worked together during the enforcer raid on the shop
no... he just showed up as a random Ekko ex machina to save them.
>Them "making faces at each other" is them reminiscing over their childhoods
childhood memories that we were never shown. we are literally just being told this was history that happened off-screen in the moment.
>and their conflicting emotions
and there's no reason for Ekko to be conflicted when as far as we know he barely knew Jinx as a kid and has spent YEARS trying to kill her since, with her slaughtering dozens of his crew.
>and gives insight into their mental state.
what fricking insight? Ekko is confident he'll win with his PIPE against her GUN? was the intention to make him look like a fricking moron? why doesn't Jinx just SHOOT HIM instead of dramatically posing and quipping like a cringe supervillain?
>implies that they've had some history in this war which we as the audience are not privvy to
aka FRICKING FANFICTION.
how the frick is this different from disney star wars or any other slop? vague inconsistent writing that gets "fixed" by fans writing their own fricking stories for them.
>Ekko is severely injured
so injured he's fine after lying under a filthy bridge for several hours with no medical care lmao
>Jinx is nearly fricking killed, gets herself humbled
"humbled" by getting superpowers, ok.
>that completely breaks her already fragile mental state
did it? she was always a shitty lolsorandumb schizo, the shimmer shit doesn't make a difference.
>keeps ignoring all counterpoints while repeating his own moronic statements in another wall of text post
moronic AND butthurt, great.
Mass replying and being a nitpicking fricking butthole. Does no one else in this thread understand that this guy is a bad faith actor who watched the show specifically so he can complain about it?
He genuinely doesn't want to talk about the show, he watched the show so he could force himself into conversations about it, and be an butthole.
You're getting baited, it happens to you literally every time you come to Cinemaphile
You still haven't learned to roll with the punches
This board isn't the homosexual debate club Cinemaphile pretends to be
I mean I see what he's doing and am not responding. The idea that trying to actually talk about a show with someone willing to listen comes off as a debate club to you makes me disappointed compared to the actually civil disagreement I had with other anon ITT where actual full sentences and thoughts were allowed and expanded on.
People here are very verbose and have a better vocabulary because they watch actual films, sometimes even foreign films.
Even when baiting they write better than what you see in Cinemaphile
Again I had a great conversation in this thread already, got a new anime recommended to me and everything. It just this other anon is really sad and actively kills any possible conversation because he will force himself into anything that actually might be talked about, because he isn't here to talk about Cinemaphile he just wants attention. Never been to Cinemaphile I assume I'd come off as a pleb to'em.
He's trying to kill the thread because here the bump limit is lower than in Cinemaphile
By replying to him you're giving him exactly what he wants
>Never been to Cinemaphile I assume I'd come off as a pleb to'em.
That's like being afraid of posting on /b/. There's a good reason why people make jokes about Cinemaphile, you know. It's one of the worst boards out there, they even had a problem with being infiltrated by leftypol moderators for almost 4 years, which were expelled just a year ago.
>nitpicking
you realize as soon as you say this, it's over? you've just admitted I'm right, but you just don't care about the show's quality. which is fine honestly, enjoy your slop, just don't get triggered when other people point it out.
>a bad faith actor who watched the show specifically so he can complain about it?
I gave it every benefit of the doubt and desperately wanted to be proven wrong. I'm a sucker for DMC/KLK sibling rivalry autism and I would have loved this show if it was even mediocre, but it's just a constant series of pathetic failures.
>Literally the next sentence:
which I responded to, did you miss that?
>>no... he just showed up as a random Ekko ex machina to save them.
oh so you did see it, you're just purposefully misrepresenting my post.
>so now you're acknowledging that they did indeed have interactions before
my question was if they had any dialogue spoken directly to each other, and I still haven't seen that.
>"b-b-b-but he threw down a ladder to her group once"
that's pathetic. Ekko had more meaningful interaction with the fat kid than Jinx and all the moronic "whoa look did you know they were kids once wooooow" shit doesn't magically give them a meaningful history.
>still can't answer the question
I accept your concession.
JINX, I AM EKKO, WE WERE FRIENDS AS CHILDREN BUT NOW WE FIND OURSELVES ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF THIS CONFLICT
you're describing the fight in the show lmao
>>Jinx shoots a sprinting Ekko in the head because apparently she has magic Mary Sue aiming abilities
or........ maybe don't have the guy bring a fricking PIPE to a GUNFIGHT, just a thought.
this is sub 80 iq behaviour.
>he only has a pipe so he has to dodge the bullets... there's no other option.... what do you mean "write it differently"?
>>Ekko and Jinx were friends when they were kids.
>something we are told, never shown.
Literally the next sentence:
>They worked together during the enforcer raid on the shop and their interactions imply that they are friends.
>>They worked together during the enforcer raid on the shop
>no... he just showed up as a random Ekko ex machina to save them.
Oh, so now you're acknowledging that they did indeed have interactions before, you just suck at remembering the others, so I'm just going to stop reading here because you're fricking admitting that you're wrong and I accept your concession
The ideal Ekko vs Jinx fight according to this guy:
>HELLO JINX, I AM EKKO, WE WERE FRIENDS AS CHILDREN BUT NOW WE FIND OURSELVES ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF THIS CONFLICT
>YES HELLO EKKO, I REMEMBER YOU VERY WELL, IT IS SOMETHING OF A MORAL ISSUE FOR BOTH OF US TO FIND OURSELVES IN A BATTLE TO THE DEATH DESPITE OUR FOND MEMORIES OF PLAYING GAMES TOGETHER
>YES IT IS A SHAME THAT THINGS HAVE COME TO THIS, NOW WE FIGHT
>Jinx shoots a sprinting Ekko in the head because apparently she has magic Mary Sue aiming abilities according to anon
>there's no tension in this fight because Jinx should instantly win with her mary sue aiming skills, but then she just misses because reasons?
Jinx misses shots all the fricking time. One of her main weapons is a fricking minigun and she doesn't exactly land a high percentage of hits with it - she doesn't even land a single bullet when she's fighting the fireflies with Vi
Also the scene literally shows us that Jinx has been using the same shooting pattern since she was a kid in one-on-one fights and that Ekko is smart enough to use that to his advantage
Fricking hell anon it's not a complicated scene
>Jinx misses shots all the fricking time.
yes whenever she aims at a main character, convenient.
>One of her main weapons is a fricking minigun and she doesn't exactly land a high percentage of hits with it
yeah makes you wonder why she even has the fricking thing... or the grenades. she's far more deadly with a normal fricking PISTOL.
seriously that scene on the boat is fricking embarrassing. everyone just stands still and allows her to throw grenades at them while out of cover.
>Also the scene literally shows us that Jinx has been using the same shooting pattern since she was a kid in one-on-one fights and that Ekko is smart enough to use that to his advantage
so..... he can just dodge bullets lmao
yes what a thrilling scene, I am so invested in the tension.
>I am going to shoot you with this gun
>aha, but I suddenly have the power to dodge bullets!
what incredible writing
>VISUAL STORYTELLING
>PRETTY LIGHTS
>YOU CAN'T SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE ARE PRETTY LIGHTS AND FACES SO THAT MEANS IT'S JUST GOOD OK
thank you for your valuable input.
>It was *ok*.
it's way worse than that.
WHY are they so filthy, jesus? wash your faces.
so you're not actually going to respond to anything I said? ok, I accept your concession.
You literally keep repeating the same things over and over while you even go as far as cutting out the part of the reply that would refute your point, only quoting the first half.
Anon
He's a bad faith actor.
>You literally keep repeating the same things over and over
because I haven't had a single answer to any of my questions:
>what's the point of spending a full fricking minute on Jinx and Ekko making smug anime faces?
>what's the point of spending so much time on a fight that lasts half a second and has no consequence on the story?
>why are we getting flashbacks to imply a stronger relationship than was shown between these two characters instead of anything meaningful?
and so forth.
and no repeating
>UHH IDK IT'S UHHH VISUAL STORYTELLING I HEARD A GUY ON YOUTUBE SAY THAT ONCE
is not a defence.
>keeps asking questions and makes assumptions about things that are clearly shown with VISUAL STORYTELLING
Maybe pay attention next time, midwit. It's a show for teenagers and young adults, it's a bit embarrassing to not understand the most basic character interactions.
Imagine writing all this and unironically believing it. Lmao couldn't be me.
nah bro, this is a terrible scene because the actor doesn't say anything for like a whole minute
>because the actor doesn't say anything for like a whole minute
still ignoring my actual arguments then?
and notice how in that scene you posted the actors don't have to constantly sigh and make a different face every microsecond in order to convey emotion. their faces are actually still most of the time. because that's how real people express themselves.
notice that when he starts telling what happened they don't need an exaggerated flashback to emphasize the emotion of what happened, they don't need to remind you that these characters were kids once upon a time, they don't need to constantly reaffirm that these characters have years of history together.
you can infer all of that from the straight-forward expressions and dialogue.
arcane floods you with ten times as much information in half the time and nearly all of it is just white noise. junk data.
It's technically impressive but ultimately boring.
simp trash
aptly put
Is this newbie actually quoting his own post and acting like other people think it's funny? Go back, Black person
Someone has the Victor running kino webm?
Would be forever grateful, fren.
There you go anon.
It's really good, but it's pointless to compare this rogue example of western animation to the current state of the Japanese anime industry. From a purely technical standpoint anime is way fricking past its prime. The lack of proper time allotted and funding is a big part of it. Bare minimum funding means artists have to prioritize which scenes get the most attention. Which is why even in supposedly flagship recent shows like Edgerunners or Chainsaw Man you have beautiful, highly dynamic fight scenes interspersed with talking / walking scenes with flat backgrounds where the characters look like cardboard cutouts. There's no 3/4/5 year projects for one season (unlike the 6 year production and 90 million dollar budget for Arcane), jap artists are pushed to have each scene done yesterday so the show can released with all the other conveyor belt slop in time for fall / spring or whatever. God forbid the industry doesn't have 200 new low quality moeshit shows every 3 months to shovel down weebs' throats
A typical Japanese anime series has about ~1% of the funding and maybe ~15% of the time to make that Arcane had. Of course it shows.
All true but no animu ever looked like Arcane to begin with so there was never a comparison to be made, contemporary or otherwise.
Look like and look as good as are two different things. You can't have a conversation comparing east and west until it is agreed both sides have equal merit. Otherwise why have the conversation? Why say anything? The perspectives themselves aren't comparable.
In comparing similar base points The Tale of Princess Kaguya is the closest thing in recent memory to Arcane. Both aimed to be moving paintings and both succeed in that. The fact the style of painting is different doesn't make one superior to the other, they are both triumphs of animation. And so in that same way, to say east is better than west or vice versa isn't a conversation, it's an endpoint with no future for growth.
Wut
yeah arcane is 3d with some 2d effects on top, anime is 2d. You are comparing 2 different mediums of animation
It's the age old tactic of comparing apples to oranges and saying apples are superior because they grow in orchards instead of groves.
>current state of the Japanese anime industry
Indeed
Technology has improved but things look worse
This isn't exclusive to anime though; compare something like Starship Troopers or Alien to modern marvelshit and more than 2 decades of advancement still looks worse
there are so many animation and effects "shortcuts" that nobody plans for details
the "we'll fix it in post" list is so long that shit gets skipped by the 10000 tiny names at the end of every movie's credits.
I think anime is childish cringe, but Arcane's animation style reminded me of online flash animations with a pretty veneer laid over top.
here is your online flash animation bro
the frick scene is this from? don't remember this at all
Episode 8 factory assault
This show was garbage. I'm never going to believe twitter shills again
i really like jinx's armpits and the way her pecs stretch out to her shoulders so much
clearly there was a pit connoisseur working on the show
>clearly there was a pit connoisseur working on the show
It was a french animation studio anon, literally all of them were
>zoomer girlfriend has been playing LoL since she was like 7 years old
>Arcane is announced, excited to watch it with her because I'll never play the game myself
>she fricking hated the tvshow, says it butchered most of the characters, ruined the tone of the story, disrespected the setting, Ekko was just Miles Morales with a skateboard and so on
I don't get it
She did love Silco and his relationship with Jinx
Is she autistic? Because League of Legends is a top down game where you run down a bowling alley that looks like a forest. There are going to be some creative liberties taken with the characters and world, the 'canon' being an absolute shitshow by the way
She unironically is and the game has been a part of her life for years, even if she screams at the screen like a maniac when she plays it.
What's that supposed to mean?
>What's that supposed to mean?
You're her daddy now anon
>my zoomer gf
Bringing that to our attention tells us that you're likely a Millennial
You're her daddy now, anon.
Nah my gf's a 27 year old zoomie. She doesn't remember 9/11.
Thanks for making the word zoomer even more meaningless beyond younger person I dislike. You are a millennial if you weren't 18 at the turn of the millennia, IE anyone born after 82-99 is a millennial. Unless you've got a better breakdown for what the frick you think it should be.
Personally, I like terms like Xennial and Zillennial because I think 7 year blocks are more accurate. But I understand it's not to everyone's taste.
I remember when current "Millennials" were referred to as Gen Y
Gen Z was originally called "Millennials" since they were the ones born, you know, after the new millennium
>Gen Z was originally called "Millennials"
what. no they weren't
The reworkings have mostly been completely shit though. They retconned Noxus from being complete fascists to just "Oh we are just quirky libertarian individualists"
Meanwhile Demacia used to be a morally upright good nation now its a repressive dictatorship.
If your gf has the sense to recognize how watered down and edgy they made everything then good on her
>She did love Silco and his relationship with Jinx
RUN
>league of legends canon
>She did love Silco and his relationship with Jinx
of course she did
Your girlfriend is moronic and didn't realise for the past 8 years they have been reworking all the stories.
Arcane is very accurate to the comics (which did totally chance the old lore, but the old lore was fricking stupid), and I don't think your girlfriend read these comics.
>ASShomosexualS hate it
best sign of quality
League of Legends's lore has been retconned like 3 or 4 times already. Don't worry about it.
Almost gagging at the thought of a 21 year old girl having better taste in animation than you
more like exposes west animation
Nobody even remembers it. Meanwhile anime is making 30 billion a year.
must be a slow day on /trek/ if the trannies are doing this again
I got to the last episode then just stopped watching cause I lost interest. Was it any good?
The end is one of the best parts in the whole show

>Undisputable kino comes out

Why does this board always get filtered by quality?
>bitches about the b***hing to prevent further b***hing
You're a b***h and Jinx will never give you facial abuse head for 5+ hours straight because of it.
The yuricuck did irreparable damage to Arcane's reputation in Cinemaphile
Even /u/ banned threads about it
>show is bad because some guy posted things I don't like about it on some internet forum
Like I said, moronic reasons.
I don't care about gay slop. I'm normal
Omega based and sigmapilled. Admiring the grindset, King.
her design is so ugly, I loved the old trailers and splash arts, but in the animation she has disgusting teeths that are really offputting, and eye bag lines that make her look like a 40yo
moreover everything is so squared, and in desing language, squared is not feminine at all
The only good thing was Jinx and Silco.
They went full dyke for Vi and Cait.
They turned Cait into an hapa.
They turned Jayce into a latino.
They added a black woman.
They made Ekko a le badass black man from the hood when in-game he's still a kid.
Only Jinx remained perfect.
>They made Ekko a le badass black man from the hood when in-game he's still a kid
but he's still a kid
In-game Ekko is like a middle ground between the first and second part.
I'd simp for her if she was an aryan queen.
even more of a midge?
manlet tier. He's not a wimp but definitely not the tough guy they made him in Arcane.
"tough guy"
>They added a black woman.
OH THE MISERY!
At least she's a cute East African one unlike her mom

bro you are waifu posting stfu like you know what a good show is. Also this show was written for 16-20 year old redditards
nah its genuinely a good show
bro please watch something that isn't slopflix or shitty anime
Okay go back to plebbit then. How many good tv shows and anime have you seen? 0% chance you've seen any of the classics.
Is that annoying cut zoom effect actually part of the show.... is this an early 2000s music video for nine inch nails or papa roach,?
that webm is from a music video

The french animation studio who made this loves japanese animation, their walls are filled to the brim with anime merch. Coincidentally some of them have said that american animation has been pretty much dead for over 40 years by now.
That would explain the incestous undertones between Silco and Jinx
funny i would say that about japanese animation or just animation in general but holy fricking SHIT every anime since 2001 looks the exact fricking same
Watch more/better anime then.
>looks the exact fricking same
I can show you 5 anime from this year that don't look the same. Moreover what the frick do you expect? Like 10 animation companies, that rotate freelance animators between each others do 95% of the anime you see. This is why years have differen't styles that get's applied in all the industry overall, because they are made by the same people
Japan produces 60% of the world's animation each year, you're just watching bad shows
>Coincidentally some of them have said that american animation has been pretty much dead for over 40 years by now.
Only cartoons I can think of in that timeframe that actually broke the mold would be Ren & Stimpy, Timmverse DCAU and Spongebob. Everything else had that cheap Hannah Barbera feel. Even Loony Tunes suffered during this time with 1 fondly remembered series with Tiny Toons Adventures.
>80s cartoons are just toy commercial with animation cheaper than HB's
>'00s and '10s mostly sucked and saw [cn] become the Teen Titans GO channel
Think back, anons. How many well animated cartoons do you actually remember watching growing up? How many were varying degrees of Scooby Doo quality?
My biggest hope now that Season 2 is on the horizon is they leave the Jinx/Vi storyline behind, since it has officially been closed, and start into the Jayce/Victor schism. Because you know Jayce is going to want war using the new magic objects they made, whereas Victor will be against it on principle of what they agreed the magic should be used for.
One of the best aspects of Arcane was that they had several storylines going on at the same time while intertwining them in a way that made sense and was satisfying, so your idea is moronic and I hope they continue in the exact same manner.
Fair, but the Jinx/Vi has reached a closing point. Maybe it's better to say that relationship needs to take a back seat as the primary show relationship.
>yfw the french made better anime
wht are the chances that they'd frick up S2?
One of the writers is a Jinx/Ekko shipper so highly likely.
Trailer incoming in a few weeks and I'll be here for the seething
do you have more screencaps of the Arcane flood in the catalog? I regret not screencapping it. it lasted several days each time they released a new arc. no other show mindbroke Cinemaphile that hard in recent years. even weet ik and Buck Breaking lasted only two or three days each.

>hag lines on a 14 year old
pathetic that this is supposed to be Jinx
the frick is hag lines
wrinkles around the mouth like she's 60 years old
It's called smiling you fricking moron, maybe stop watching anime or asian streamers with 6 face filters on and you'll notice even toddlers have them when they're smiling
maybe I don't want to see them and they are ugly?
Cinemaphile has the worst fricking tastes.
Gorgeous.
Arcane looks very slick and the animation is smooth, but it is still modeled CGI rigs.
go to bed, grandpa.
>vi webm
instant cringe
The top is drawings but bottom is CGI. at least the CGI is based on the storyboards.
the characters are CGI (with drawn textures) but almost everything else is 80% drawings and matte paintings.
>the characters are CGI
That's only the most important part. At least they drew effects and backgrounds. To be fair though I haven't even watched Arcane.
is that AI?
>zoomer discovers that cgi movies (and even movies with people) have storyboards
learn how the media is made zoomer
>le zoomer strawman
calm down. the interest was the untextured animation, not the storyboard, to show the difference with the final textures and environments.
>the untextured animation
no Black person, that is not an "untextured animation" that is just a rough animation to show the 3d Black folk where things should be.
You usually do a storyboard to show stuff, then you make an animatic, basically a rough composition of the storyboard, with timing and shit, you might add more movement like in this case, (usually anime is voice acted over this), then it goes to the animation department, in this case the 3d one, that move their little slides in their ugly 3d characters to match the storyboard and how the character should move, or they use mockups of actors that do the motion and then they clean it up, depends on the production, then it goes to composition that unites all the other parts, like backgrounds effects, etc.... and make the final product, this is a basic workflow for every 3d movie, frozen even had almost totally clean keyframes of 2d animation made as reference
>it's an animation
>it's untextured
>NOOOO IT'S NOT UNTEXTURED ANIMATION *rants about Black folk*
are you okay, anon?

You got JANNY'D the last time you posted that gif lel
me on the right
Black person you said that a rough storyboard is untextured animation, shut the frick up, having 2d effects on top of 3d doesn't make it a 2d show, and is a common technique too, vidrel, has a lot of 2d elements, still is not 2d animation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dmvNGxYPCU
>video has two sides
>anon thought I talked about the top side instead of the bottom side
>throws a tantrum about Black folk because of this
least unhinged American animator
This is great? Have more? Where do you get stuff like this?
Ghibli made a 3D movie too moron
French animation is better than anime but why are there ZERO (0) kino French animation movies? and don't say fantastic reddit planet
asterix and obelix the movie, and no I wouldn't say that french animation is better, if you compare it with anime is really poor.
It's just stuff a la tom and jerry, like oggy and the wienerroach, or daltons, and other stuff with grotesque characters similiar to cn.
Shitty episodic stuff for kids, like tin tin, titeuf, asterix and obelix too.
Stuff that look like anime, like totally spies, w.i.t.c.h. or wakfu.
Stuff that is basically anime because is animated by japanese studios like inspector gadget or once upon a time.
And 3d stuff like miraculus that is basically an anime magical girl show.
But france and japan follow the same basic principle in art this is why their culture is so based on this aspect (comic+animation)
old asterix movies are kino

6/10, overrated by zoomers who do even watch anything beyond twitch and youtube, and trannies who want to self-insert
3d is as much "hand painted and hand made" as 2d anime nowadays, or really the past several decades of digital animation
The opposite. It’s all motion acted by real people. 3D was cooler when the animations were done by hand.
it's done by hand
i enjoyed it, but it's overrated, people said this was the best tv show of the best 10 years when it was released, it was good but not like it they said. also, i hated the focus on Jinx and all the zaun stuff, enjoyed viktor and all the piltover scenes much more.
shame the story sucks
The French love japanese animation you fricking moron.
There is no stigma against anime outside of the US.
The only reason there is that kind of derision for it in the US is because in order to get anime into there they always had to gut it, mangle it and make it unrecognizable to the original product.
Do homosexuals on here actually watch this gay shit? You're a gay if you watch this unironically.

Anime has never been a marvel of quality. There's a few feature films that aren't too bad largely it's an extremely lazy medium that utilizes still frames of backgrounds A TON and very minimally animated and/or long distance frames so minimal animation/detail is needed while layering speech over them.
my guess is we're still more than 1 year away
early 2025
It's already been announced for Q4 2024.
Bullshit. Source?

>convinces Riot to give you $100 million

why didn't they just hire Blur studio like with all their other shorts/animated films in league and valorant?
Just checked out their website, and gotta say, their resume looks really impressive https://www.blur.com/
Because Fortiche is clearly better
Let's be real, Silco carried the entire season.
So was he ever gonna give Jinx up or did he actually love her?
When he was offered the thing he had been fighting for his entire life, he couldn't do it because it would cost him Jinx. Vi on the other hand rats Jinx out to the council basically for free.
>the thing he had been fighting for his entire life
was he even?
he developed a drug that turns people nearly invincible with super speed and strength... then used it to become a drug kingpin and turn his own city into a shithole instead of fighting for independence.
fricking hell... it could also be used as a fuel source for robot limbs and as a powerful medicine capable of healing grievous stab wounds.
WHAT THE FRICK WAS HE DOING ALL THOSE YEARS?
Developing it, yeah? It wasn't perfected 'till the end, right? Or do I need to watch it again?
>It wasn't perfected 'till the end, right?
he perfects it in E3, he then spends YEARS doing nothing with it except selling it as heroin.
>the quality of life went up for most people by a large margin
lmao, we get a fricking tour of Blighttown where people are barely human after getting addicted to the drug.
who the frick is profiting apart from the gangs? we learn that Jinx has been bombing the shit out of the undercity and the cops don't give a shit, not to mention the wars between Silco and Ekko's gang.
the undercity is far worse than it was under Vander so once again WHAT IS SILCO'S PLAN?
he magically has the council by the balls despite losing his greatest assets in Marcus and Jinx. so why the frick didn't he just hire a dozen jacked up shimmer dudes, maybe give them some mecha suits with the tech he used for Sevika's arm, not to mention FRICKING LASER SWORDS, while also getting Marcus to sabotage Piltover's defences from within and using Jinx's bombs to spread additional chaos?
he could capture the council and force them to sign whatever fricking treaty he wanted at any time.
he is in a WORSE POSITION in the episode where the council is desperate to negotiate with him than he was in episode 4.
LITERALLY WHAT THE FRICK WAS HE DOING THIS WHOLE TIME?
Try not to constantly check your phone the next time you watch a show for teenagers, maybe then you can follow the basic plot.
>turn his own city into a shithole instead of fighting for independence.
Neither of these are remotely true. He introduced a dangerous drug, true, but the quality of life went up for most people by a large margin and he used the drug in the first place as a tool to fight for independence, both directly and indirectly.
moron
I wish Jayce was wienery as frick like in the game
Maybe his personality will change more so into that in season 2?
>girlboss show
nah I'm good
I give it a 7/10.
It's solid, well worth a watch, but it suffers from design by committee where every plot point, character moment is gone over with a fine tooth comb to get the most agreeable reaction out of the audience.
That and it lacks character, it lacks that singular vision of one director. The designs are kinda all over the place and it cant decide on what it's main source of inspiration is or stick with one thing so it's kinda cyberpunk, steampunk, diesel punk, little bit mobius, little bit anime. Little bit everything and the end result is that it doesnt have a strong visual character.
It's magicpunk, dumbass.
oh you mean the punk that looks like an amalgamation of steampunk, cyberpunk and dieselpunk?
Did I fricking stammer? Are you asking me or yourself? What's going on here, Anon?
I'm pointing out that your insistance on magicpunk doesnt run contrary to anything I described it as because it is a watered down version of all the aforementioned.
>The designs are kinda all over the place and it cant decide on what it's main source of inspiration is or stick with one thing so it's kinda cyberpunk, steampunk, diesel punk, little bit mobius, little bit anime.
It's magicpunk. I'm not insisting it is; it is. Their tech is running on magic. All you've done is point out that you didn't know it was magicpunk or even aware before handing out your big brain review.
>he doesnt know every punk that tumblr and deviant art made up in the last decade
Again, how does it run contrary to anything I said. Magic punk can be described as a mix, at least aesthetically, ignoring the actual functionality of it, of cyberpunk/steampunk/dieselpunk.
It doesnt have a strong visual aesthetic other than looking like digital art from deviant art. It's well done mind you, I'm not saying the animators are trash, they've put alot of love into it, but it lacks a strong visual personality and just looks bland and forgettable.
>how does it run contrary to anything I said
moron, it's magicpunk. You're the one seeing an argument.
>doesn't have a strong visual aesthetic
lol something tells me you want this to be true when clearly it is not the case at all.
yeah that's what league of legends basically is
they just crammed all of that shit together into one piece of shit ASShomosexualS game that bug people have been playing for over a decade

>police are shown as hard working and competent
>it cant decide on what it's main source of inspiration is
I know, it's crazy to see something not made by americans who just make the same lukewarm shit over and over again.
I'm shocked at how much I disagree with you on almost every thing you said. It lacks character? You could say that it's overflowing with too much shit going on but it 100% has it's own style and pulls it off perfectly. Whether or not you like that style is up to you but I genuinely cannot comprehend what you are actually trying to say.
it was a children's TV show, that's what he means.
>Little bit everything and the end result is that it doesnt have a strong visual character.
It absolutley has a strong visual style. You could see basically any random frame from Arcane and you know what show youre seeing
that looks like it's from Darksiders II
you need to get your eyes checked
you're still getting baited
???
The animation was good. Everything else was shit. People simping for the bluehair are mentally ill.
Reminder: He WILL be in season two.

she's so ugly kys shill
Ok hot

>Mom look I'm animating like my animehs! :The Slop

I liked the show but the music video editing during some fight scenes and the Black music was really annoying. Also it's bullshit that Jayce knows how to fight with a hammer all of a sudden.
>Also it's bullshit that Jayce knows how to fight with a hammer all of a sudden.
His hate for brown children empowered him.
given that items in League literally give stats (is it canon or video game logic? probably a bit of both...) It's not to crazy to assume the hammer grants the skill to use it just by grasping it.
I would rather shoot myself in the head then interact or consume even one teaspoon of a League of Legends thing
This show was so fricking overrated you gays lied to me. It was *ok*. That’s it. Im convinced all the bajillions of Leaguegays propped this show up because it’s nowhere near as good as it’s been claimed to be. It’s fine. Not garbage like I was expecting but it’s just fine. Has absolutely nothing on the actual good Japanese animation you league addicted fool.
60fps looks weird
viktor subplot>>>>>the rest of the show>>>ekko jackoffery
This thread makes me thankful I never got a LOL addiction,whew. Dodged a bullet on that one.
I think LoL is absolute fricking dogshit but Arcane was really good.
arcane was amazing
I liked it, but I hear it's doing what a lot of western shows do where it wraps up so much stuff that it feels like it'll be 3-5 seasons of standalone stories that maybe eventually converge (especially in this case considering what it's based on) but then instead just continues with the same characters that nobody cares about anymore
I could have fixed her.
Vi seems like the kind of girl who'd have hairy pits.
>Leblanc clussy never ever
Ye I think it's trash
Leblancgays get the rope.
Trannies usually play Jinx, Caitlyn Ahri Lux so Arcane gays will rope sooner
Ibhate steampunk
Wizards of the coast/league of legends/ DnD, legend of korra, nemona Fantasy steampunk aesthetic is the worst most uninspired thing ever. Your cartoon looks like a chinese mobile game. If i see another uninspired steampunk setting with wizards i will kill myself
>Jinx calls him "the boy saviour"? when the frick was that a thing?
When he lead a gang of adolescents to overthrow the elites and uplift the streets through hoverboarding, fingerpainting, and tree hugging.
>hapas rigfht?!
what did jinx mean by this?
this looks like those horrible ''animated'' rule 34 images that is clearly just a still image that is compressed and stretched to give the illusion of movement
so fricking disgusting to look at
um jinx is cute
>t. has no idea what the frick he's talking about, isn't creative in general let alone an artist
>this looks like those horrible ''animated'' rule 34 images
This looks worse than a lot of Rule 34 porn.
kek I made this one thanks for keeping my memes alive. man, the general was absolutely atrocious and clearly was going to get shot in the back of the head any minute but that's also what made it fun
>everyone who is a fan of the tumblr circlejerk of the chinese scam game has nothing to refute all the criticisms and arguments against the animation, and just spit their pacifyers out
anime is trash but you are making weebs look sane
I fricking hate when a character's eyebrows are a different color than their hair.
Like holy shit your natural hair color applies to your whole body not just your head, it just reminds me of all the live action series where they'll put a mutt in a blonde wig and call it a day, the least you could do is dye their eyebrows and at least try to maintain the illusion they're a blonde.
