From the very beginning, this show has challenged us with great characters and with the very real risk of loss.

Everyone had their valid reasons, every scene had its place and nothing happened for no reason.

Many potentially great shows have fallen at the last hurdle, trying to gather the threads together for that perfect conclusion.

But all too often, right at the end, we are left deflated after a damp squid, a cheesy wind-down, being preached at, having our protagonists perform some miraculous last minute save, or worst of all, a Deus Ex Machina.

Endings are often just downright disappointing.

But not this show's.

It is perfect.

Hands down to the best Netflix show i've ever seen. Live-action doesn't grt on par with this masterpiece. All the writers, animators, voice-actors, you guys are exceptional. To witness something like this is so unusual for me, tbh. After Attack on Titan, my favorite animated show.

I have watched a lot of animated shows and real shows but this is like nothing I have ever seen before, they managed to get everything to the next level , the animation is literally breath taking but it would be nothing without the most important part which is the story,lore and world building, I was never a fan of lol but this just made me one of their biggest fans ever and that says something, this is an amazing ending, everything happens is for a reason, nothing is random in this series, you get to see all the characters motives and drives, as well as their pain and emotions man so mush emotions and heartbreak,this show is literal perfection as far as cinema goes.

If you watched the entire season I believe most can agree it's hard to find fault for much in Arcane. It's simply one of the best shows to come out in years and it would be a shame if Arcane is not renewed for a second season.

The best thing about the conclusion was whoever you are, you are right!

Vi is right, Cait is right, Jinx is right, same with the rest (Jayce, Mel, Vik etc) and the best part was Silco who also was right (by not going for the exchange). Can you believe it? Even Silco (a villian) made sense. It's not caricaturistic bad man like most movies/shows provides since forever. He had reasons, he's loyal, he's radical.

If someone comes up with ''ending sucked'', then s/he's poisoned by stupid cliche Holywood/superheroe movies.

No sir, this is not your average ending with ''kiss'' or happy conclusion.

This ending built where they want you to imagine how Piltover and Zaun and all those characters are now. This is their condition. This is where they are and how they are.

About next season: The reason why most tv shows/movies fail is ''stretching'' the current story or literally putting filler episodes.

For example Stranger Things: It should've end in season 1. But they forced it for 3 more seasons and each season it's getting worse. Why? Because those characters and that story in that town is saturated.

But Arcane's story is developing so fast that i'm sure there are still even more stories/scenes there they skipped.

The only thing i'm curious is....how the hell are they gonna keep the quality on this level, again? Sounds impossible...

*Edited for typo.

Those last 15 mins in the episode are equal to BB's Ozymandias, or AOT's Hero. It's that good, and we're so lucky to live in this era of TV. Please give these episodes and the show the full mark (10/10) to encourage and influence production companies to produce and create more original stories like this one and also obviously give Riot & Fortiche the credit they deserve for such a remarkable & outstanding achievement in originality and animation.

The ending..... I. NEED. MORE!

All jokes aside, fantastic ending, there was 4 of us watching and when the credits rolls, we all screamed, pulled our phones and checked for any hint on season 2. Its that good. Just fantastic.

Season 2 when?

If you were a fan of the game you knew that Riot Games could make a fine series and that was what we expected...And then comes this three weekends to shut us down, Literally...The last time i expected a shows episodes to come up like a 10 year old was back at 10's when Breaking Bad was at its prime...But where to start and where to finish...This might be one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen,a pure art. It makes it impossible for you to look away even for a second...Watch this show either you play the game or not is far more than a Videogame series is an A-PPA-RI-TI-ON.

This .... This ... It's a masterpiece!

Perfect ending, for a perfect first season.

Really, the best I've seen this year. Just awesome and I'm looking forward to its second season already.

"The Monster You Created" nicely wraps up the First season of "Arcane" and is such a beautiful and stunning episode. It caught me off guard the first time I saw it, being shocked that this was how the first season ended. But, it works so well and make me excited for season two. This has to be the best episode in the series.

Series 1-3 10/10, Series 4-6 9/10, Series 7-8 - down.

The end of each act is an emotional game to wait for a new act. It's a very famous way of doing things in soap operas. And I would put up with it if it weren't for the detail of the plot. In episodes 7 and 8 you can count the moments with Jinx on a stopwatch and there's no talk of the sisters meeting. I waited 2.5 episodes to see both Jinx and the meeting of the sisters for what? To just use them again as the end of the act and wait for the new season. So Jinx's role is just to come out at the right moment, the end of the act, and nothing more? Her sister in the dialogue didn't even notice that her sister came back from the other side, and yet everyone in the underground city knows what makes her eyes that colour. And the sister didn't even notice it. That's the elaboration of the plot. And that's the overall plot in the show.

I wanted to give the series a 1/10 because of the overall rating overrated by other users. But apparently I'll be watching season 2 with the hope of fixing the plot and a good picture. And yes, the music here is great too.

I would highly recommend this series to anyone. Never been a fan of league of legends (to be honest I had to google what it was whilst watching), but completely stands up on its own. The story, the animation, the tone, all of it was brilliant. Already looking forward to season 2.

I never actually write a review, but this series is just beautiful. You can never tell what's going to happen and this story is just awesome. At the beginning with childish problems and at the end with very deep problems, you are simply fascinated. 10/10.

Greetings from Lithuania.

"The Monster You Created" 9th episode of "Arcane" superbly ended season 1. This was the most intense episode yet. Ending was great and a big cliffhanger.

So sum it up the whole season 1 - it was a terrific one. Animation was unique and amazing one. Directing, writing, story - all top notch. Despite not knowing anything about source material i highly enjoyed the series. It was superbly paced - all episodes clicked, there were not fillers and scenes had a purpose. Music choices were also excellent.

If (when) there will be season 2 i will definitely going to watch. This show was a surprise gem.

I wish they would make anime like this. I hope that a lot of American cartoon series will be made really, because I am a big fan of this series and the beautiful animation that the series has.

WOW. How am I meant to wait for another season now!?!?! That was incredible. The final scene at the table was thrilling, it literally gave me goosebumps, I was on the edge of my seat. The dialogue was incredible, heart wrenching and engaging. That cliffhanger as well :0 Can season 2 come any faster! Thank you for this amazing first season of Arcane! I can't wait to watch season 2. You tried to do great and it was amazing!

This final episode left me feeling so much. A tv show has never left me so desperate for more. This is, without a doubt, the best show I have ever seen. The creators, owners, and Netflix must treat it and whatever it does with it next like the most precious element on earth. It is a masterpiece.

Small flaws, but an amazing finish to this season. While I have no doubt that this will receive a sequel I will be eagerly awaiting every second of it in the meantime. The fantastic quality and innovation could represent a new frontier for animation, and I hope that this show inspires future studios to pursue such quality. The resolution to many of the plotlines here give much in the way of cliffhangers, but overall, a very satisfying story.

One of the best bittersweet endings I have seen these past few years. As I said love can come in many different ways and Jynx is a very intricate character to discover and learn through the series. Amazing character development and well written dialogues.

It is such a shocking and emotional ending for the season. I'm very excited and eager to watch season 2. This show is MUST WATCH. The best thing I've watched this year.

Incredible Episode. The only problem is the episode focused on people who are not LoL players. They could include more major events and heroes for current LoL players because League players are waiting for it for a long time. They didn't show enough heroes and cities. They didn't show more magic and most of the things just stayed as it is. It was basically like a great tv series with LoL characters. But apparently, producers don't care about current LoL fans while making it and only focus on regular spectators.

Who tried so hard to enjoyed this show from the beginning until the end and every episode I was like it was so boarding.

The good show for me is that when I finish an episode I would try hard to not watch the next one at the same session. For this however I tried hard to finish it in one day or two to understand What I am missing and I think I finally understand why I don't like it. I think it is not meant to be for a 40-year-old guy or maybe it just for people who played the game.

This is the first time I got fooled because of the AMDB ratings with a ratings more that 9. For me this is Citizen Kane but for anime everybody says it's so good until you realized you have been wasting your time trying to be like them.

The only thing I enjoyed was the music and for it I gave 5.
