[@JamesVSCinema]

Glad to be back with some Arcane! Episode 1-3 & More on Patreon! Click here: www.patreon.com/jamesvscinema Have a great day y'all!

"For my son!" She's the chembaron whose son Jayce accidentally killed in season 1 when raiding the shimmer factory.

[@Denashi]

4:28 That scene is indeed done in charcoal! The amount of work and talent put into this show is... staggering!

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

The "Heavy is the Crown" sequence is chilling. Peace is no longer an option. They bout to go to war.

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

Someone pointed this out: Since the new intro is supposed to look like a Greek tragedy play, there are a few references to classical plays in it: Phantom of the Opera (Viktor with the mask), Les Misérables (Jinx with the flag) and Macbeth (Cait's crowned shadow).

[@DanielS2001]

Julius Caesar (Ambessa on the couch holding a black rose).

[@Theflyingstain23]

Arcane Season 1 - Into the Spiderverse, Arcane Season 2 - Across the Spiderverse (in terms of animation quality). Really feels like you're watching art instead of just a show/movie. Really hope we get more stuff that looks and feels like these do.

[@chrishouseinc]

I clicked this video SO FAST. Best. Show. Ever.

[@JamesVSCinema]

You and me both, bro. You and me both.

[@chrishouseinc]

@@JamesVSCinema Heavy is the Crown being Cait's theme song here and her shadow looking like a crown in the intro sequence is so 🔥🔥🔥

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

Dang you went hard on that thumbnail, dawg!

[@zeromontena956]

7:24 A glorious one.

[@Illue]

Did I hear someone say 'Evolution'???

[@richi6962]

yoo the man himself is reacting to the best animated show of the year

[@JamesVSCinema]

Yesssirr

[@JasonPowell-e1i]

Yes! So glad you're covering this (especially with Mr robot ending soon😵) Looking forward to see what you think of the narrative and all the different animation styles this season🙌

[@Amatsu2077]

I think this show is the peak of artistry in this medium. How could it possibly get better than this show. Cant wait for the next story theyre going to tell.

[@reizig]

Oh shit, I didn't know you reacted to Arcane. Now I gotta go watch you do the first season and come back.

[@JamesVSCinema]

Ayyyy sounds good!!

[@aintIt-jpeg]

brooooo, ngl your the only reaction i was looking forward to seeing for this season. its so elite

[@acrazyguy14]

Had to go back and watch the first season react really quick, all set for this one now.

[@danielvilla508]

omg I've been waiting for this AHHH I'm so happy you are reacting to it!!!

[@deadso]

Finally! Love your reacts dude

[@syox3667]

Finally man

[@DaFootyChannel]

13:39 That soundtrack is by none-other than THE Linkin Park 🔥

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

That Chem-Baron lady really pulled a Texas Chainsaw Massacre 11:39 Also I'm sorry, but what the hell did Jayce think he was gonna do with that small hammer?

[@SleepyTaafey]

High chance you'd be hospitalised with a hit like that, she's just built different

[@kenjutsukata1o1]

Have you never held a hammer before? Without being juiced up on super shimmer a hit like that is gonna put most anybody down for the count. Simply dropping a hammer that size on your foot would have you hollering with pain with a possible broken toe, getting a hammer like that to the dome full-strength from a built guy like Jayce and that thing's probably embedding itself in your brain or straight up painting the walls with it.

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

The FASTEST I clicked on a notification video. I knew you weren't done with this show.

[@BattleAngelFan99]

When they announced there would be a mmorpg, someone made a video telling about the world of runeterra. I'm going to post the title of that here when I find it. "The World of Riot's MMO is Already Done" by Necrit. The reason I'm mentioning is because this gives you an idea just how developed the world of Runeterra is and what we can look forward to in not just their MMO, but also their series'. He describes the world, lore, some of the notable characters, etc. And he's wearing plaid pajamas. :D

[@jaybeepainting9413]

Arcane is so GODDAMN good!

[@alexkramerblogs]

Peak meets peak!!

[@alexkramerblogs]

Aw, S2E1, such simpler times

[@nicholasloduca6668]

Couldn't wait this! Also James, since this is the final season of Arcane, you should watch Blue Eye Samurai to fill that Netflix animated hole. Similar to Arcane, it's gorgeously animated, compelling narrative and just absolutely mind-blowing. I would say it's definitely on-par with Arcane

[@JamesVSCinema]

I’ll put that on the list! I’ll be jumping into The Penguin but with these bonus videos it’ll give me a looser upload schedule which is great. Win/win!

[@michaelwoodby5261]

Nah.

[@bazzakrak]

Arcane sure looks good, and it shows that they spend 250 million bucks on the 2 seasons of it, but with 720 minutes runtime the cost pr minute isnt that bad. Into the spidervers 2 cost 100 million to make for 100 minutes of runtime Iniside out cost 175 million to make for 108 minutes runtime A bugs life 120 million to make for 95 minutes runtime Toy Story 4 and Lightyear each cost 200 million bucks for 87 and 116 minutes runtime. So they did get alot for what they put into it compared to other animation stuff

[@Empty-Mask]

I fuggin hate that this is gonna be 8 more weeks to get all your reactions for free, which is fine but fuuuuuggggg
