Amid the vast discord of the twin cities of Piltover and Zaun, two sisters fight on opposing sides in a war of magical technology and clashing beliefs. Check out the actors behind some of your favorite animated films and series, including Ella Purnell in Arcane. ;. Fortiche Productions made a music video called "Get Jinxed" for Riot in 2013. It now features Jinx and the city of Piltover. Riot was so impressed with the work that they asked Fortiche to make an animated series, which took them several years to make. After the release of the first season, Riot announced that there would be a second season and that it would take less time to produce.. Featured in Crazy Cartoon Cast of AniMat: Geeked Week for Freaks (2021). Enemy Written by Dan Reynolds, Wayne Sermon, Ben McKee, Daniel Platzman, Robin Fredriksson, Matthias Larsson, Justin Tranter, J.I.D. (like Destin Route). Performed by Imagine Dragons ft J.I.D.. This has no right to be as good as it is. I mean, it’s based on a video game, since when has that ever led to anything better than acceptable? But still, this is one of the best series I’ve watched in a long time. I just saw the first episode of the new adaptation of Wheel of Time and was disappointed with that one, I looked for something else and just happened to see if this was getting good reviews. I quickly fell in love with it and devoured the entire season in one go. Arcane does everything right that so many shows and movies get wrong these days. They respect all of their characters, making sure you understand why they do what they do, and make you empathize with them. They take just the right amount of time to draw you into the story and world before the big plot points happen so you can really feel their impact. They set things up well in advance and make sure to give you a proper reward so nothing feels rushed or cheap. And something that is so rare these days; they are not afraid to give all their characters flaws and let them fail, regardless of their gender or how strong they are supposed to be. This is a show with two female leads who can beat anyone and neither of them feels like they don’t deserve it. And not once do they feel the need to belittle the men to show how cool they are. Take note, creators of other shows, this is how you write strong characters, regardless of gender, that your audience can feel invested in. Special mention goes to the animators. Kudos to you for being able to make characters who can convey both strong and subtle emotions, more clearly than most real actors can. And kudos to the voice acting and music choices, both of which are top notch. Overall, a very enjoyable show that gives me a glimmer of hope for future entertainment, and I’m looking forward to season 2. We rounded up every anime series and movie we could find — created or distributed by Netflix — to see which ones ranked highest according to IMDb users.
