Fans won’t be disappointed. Season two continues to build on themes of class oppression, state-sanctioned violence, and found family while maneuvering its characters ever deeper into the moral gray. Read full review

We'll have to wait to see how Act III resolves the many plot threads as well as where the characters end up, but for now, the first six episodes of Arcane season 2 build on the masterpiece that was season one. Read full review

Themes of self-identity and interpersonal relationships continue to be the driving force that keeps "Arcane"'s storytelling poignant and captivating. Regardless of their ethical beliefs, each character is portrayed with intricate humanistic traits, making their emotionally motivated actions feel genuine. Read full review

As this second season pinballs between stylish action sequences, bittersweet tragedy, and messianic imagery, it balances these tones through snappy editing and a general panache. While we’re still waiting on the last three episodes to see if everything coalesces, at least so far, this series hasn’t lost an ounce of its magic. Read full review

A powerful Act II is the strongest part of Arcane’s second and final season. The storytelling is as subtle as a magic-powered gauntlet to the head, but, paradoxically, that’s part of its maximalist charm — a show which still feels capable of being anything at any moment. Read full review

Arcane Season 2 proves that it was worth the long wait, further delivering on everything that made us fall in love with the series in the first place as the first two acts tease a satisfying, albeit devastating, end to the story of Vi and Jinx. Read full review
