Arcane is two seasons of stellar writing and art that left us feeling far more than we ever had expected. Check out our official review on 20k Films Under The Sea!

Our official review template for our review of Arcane on the podcast 20’000 Films Under The Sea. It shows the character Jinx from League of Legends and Arcane with a tooth-like hood. The review paragraph reads: “League of Legends isn’t a game that most of us are particularly fond of, but Arcane is a masterclass in storytelling and animation that is arguably unmatched by any other piece of animated content to date. WATCH. THIS. SHOW. NOW.” Our official rating is a 10 out of 10.
