I think it's a good thing, they don't have a preconceived notion of how their characters should sound like and these characters should not sound like themselves in game since it's an origin story
As big is LoL is, it's not big outside of the gaming space of for those pc people that love it. I couldnt get into the main jawn, but I'm digging the off shoot Ruined King.
That's usually how it goes for VAs. Some don't even know what they were voicing for until after the release of the project/they were informed about it by fans.
it really speaks to the amazing voice direction & general direction this show had! lots of kudos to the actors themselves but also, good actors would be bad with bad direction.
the fact that they haven't seen their co-stars just speaks to their talent as actors, so credits to the actors, the production, and all the effort put into this show, just makes this show so hi-qual.
This is probably the best show I've ever seen. Went in with zero knowledge and expectations, and finished the show being absolutely blown away. Words can't express how much of a masterpiece this show is.
Idem, man. I couldn't believe it when it was over... my heart was crushed and I had dried tears on my cheeks because I cared so much for these characters that the finale took me by surprise
crazy how so much of the cast are acting so well while putting on different accents! jinx is actually english and caitlyn is actually scottish?! Vander is played by someone from france?! and viktor is played by someone from england?! Its crazy!
Wow good way to describe it. Her voice is very calming. I guess that speaks to her character though. The type of voice you would easy trust and rely on.
Yeah but Netflix is an executive producer so Netflix will still get the glory but who cares we all know LOL and Riot so we all know who to give credit. I am just happy on the results
This show was incredible. I've never been so emotional invested in any show, let alone an animated one, in a long time. This voice actors were a big part of that so well done everyone!
Omg, she was perfectly cast! All of the little squeaks and cracks in her voice brought all the tumultuous emotions Jinx was experiencing to life so fully and beautifully.
If someone told me at the start of the year that my favorite show of 2021 is going to be an animated League of Legends show, I would laugh in their face. But this show is by far the best thing I have watched this year, a true masterpiece and every voice actor nailed it. This show is going to be a benchmark for animated shows going forward, and also for character driven shows in general.
I thought Mel speaks American English while Toks speak British English, is it intended ? I thought British English accent would be appropriate to that character.
Harry Lloyd absolutely did Viktor justice, he was playing Viktor at the Undercity Night against Phreak of all people lmao. happy to see him invested in project even afterwards yall should try interviewing more of the VAs, especially Silco since he was such fun on the stream, and possibly Hailee Steinfeld
Amazing show. Characters - Jinx is the best creation equally supported by Ms. Ella Purnell , Viktor is earthly character done full justice by Mr. Harry Lloyd, Silco was voice supported honesty and Mel Medarda is created beautifully exotic. You don't forget any of these characters after the show, they remain with you. So beautifully created. Hats off to the creators.
@@Freddy-im2hd She's Noxian. She's an outsider to the entire kingdom Piltover & Zaun. Therefore, she has a different accent (I legitimately could not pinpoint her real world origin, but I'm sure someone else) than everyone else in the council. A voice that sounds alluring, a personality that embraces the unknown, a character that is so elegant and knowledgeable and encapsulates all that is upstanding about Pilotover.
@@LeMagnifiquePetiteEspirit Oh I know, Cowboy Bebop proves live action is a bad idea. I just think it might be cool to see them all, having the voice actorsw all kinda look like their characters.
@@LeMagnifiquePetiteEspirit Nah, no sarcasm man. It's bad. The og is still always good tho. As for Arcane, I'm pretty sure I just want more Arcane content. This show surprised me with the quality.
Harry Lloyd voicing Viktor already sold the character out to me (been a fan since Robin Hood back in the day), but I totally fell in love with him... Damn.
Man...I'm in LOVE with their VOICES! The way they portrayed these characters and their personalities with their voice acting is superb, also kudos to the team who casted such perfect actors
i know years ago ive been begging riot to create something amazing like arcane, but i wonder what they could achieve if they create a single-player story-rich game that encompasses the world of runeterra... i get goosebumps just thinking about it!
its so incredible to me that this is some of the best voice acting ive heard and most of, if not all of them, had not met each other during production. it takes some real talent to do that! im excited for the next season!
One thing i like about League lore is that you only need to read the lore of the character you want. No need to learn the entirety of runeterra lore. You want to learn Jinx... Just read only her lore You want to learn Caitlyn... Just read only her lore Their story just simply connect at some point like crossover events. Each character lore is like 1-3 short paragraphs and that pretty much explains everything about them. Amumu (a playable character) for crying out loud only has like 3-5 sentences and its him being Sad
Loved this show. Loved every character including the villains. Very very well made. I hope this gets more seasons in the future. Now, the problem is, how long am I going to wait for another season?
I’m no gamer, but still I was familiar with the name league of legends as a video game, and when I heard about Arcane being an animated adult show based on the game I instantly was curious. The visuals were what first drew me in fast, I mean look at that art style, incredible! I’ve binged through the show twice and now I’m sitting back and waiting for what’s next.
Nice to see Ella Purnell get some respect for voicing Jinx, because some people were complaining about her acting in Army of The Dead. She was the lead in the TV series Sweet Bitter and I thought she did great.
All great actors ....but have to say that jinx's voice was soo on point tho.....at the tea party in the end you could definitely hear all the madness and sometimes all the pain and grief by the tone the actress adopted in the lines.....truly a great job...👏👏
Agent: Hey man, we got a new gig for you. Harry Lloyd: Hmm, I'll think about it... Agent: It's a fantasy IP, and your character's name starts with V. Harry Lloyd: W H E N D O W E S T A R T
I wish Ella talked more about Powder's backstory. because I wasn't a league of legends fan before the show and I domt know any lore outside or arcane so the whole show was new to me
For about the last ten years Ghost in the Shell SAC was my favorite animation ever. Arcane got a baseball bat and SMASHED it out of the park. I have never fallen in love with so many characters, I've never felt such amazing voice acting matched with on drawn emotions and the animation itself- just like, ...---- I don't really have words for it's brilliance I can rewatch and rewatch and rewatch this show unlike ANY piece of media that I've ever seen in my whole 30 years of existence. I think I'm in love.
That would have been a perfect video if it specify that the animation (and +) was made by Fortiche Studio and not Riot They deserves much more exposition and acknowledgement for their hardwork
Jinx's voice performance is so good, I don't even think about they were working together through zoom.
Jinx was my favorite character
they casted perfectly for jinx she was incredible
@@centernova yessss
She's really good in the Fallout show on prime also (not in the same league (no pun intended) since fallout is very dark comedy).
Viktor actor looks similar with the character and I so much love his voice
Almost all of them has a signicant similarity haha
It's the guy from game of thrones. Daenerys's brother
@@Letssgog0 golden crown?
@@JoRoBoYo yep
same with silco actor voice, did you see what a great resemblance they have?
Damn they weren't even aware of what they're voice acting at but they've done an amazing job. Kudos to them!
Its insane. It gives me huge respect for Voice actors
I think it's a good thing, they don't have a preconceived notion of how their characters should sound like and these characters should not sound like themselves in game since it's an origin story
As big is LoL is, it's not big outside of the gaming space of for those pc people that love it. I couldnt get into the main jawn, but I'm digging the off shoot Ruined King.
But you got to understand that the writers would have to tell them how they wanted it and how it needed to sound.
That's usually how it goes for VAs. Some don't even know what they were voicing for until after the release of the project/they were informed about it by fans.
The fact that Jinx and Vi were cold recording lines w/o prerecording is insane. There's chemistry there as if they were in the room together speaking.
i know right! i can’t wrap my head around it
it really speaks to the amazing voice direction & general direction this show had! lots of kudos to the actors themselves but also, good actors would be bad with bad direction.
This just gave me like... so much more appreciation for each of their art and skill like you got Nothing and they each gave all that!

Victor is victor in real time. Everything about him is on point. He is absolutely my favorite
Viktor
He's daenerys's brother from game of thrones
ViKtor
@@Letssgog0 oh, the golden boy
If the character only is visible with a helmet in game, they should very well have modeled the character after the actor..
the fact that they haven't seen their co-stars just speaks to their talent as actors, so credits to the actors, the production, and all the effort put into this show, just makes this show so hi-qual.
They were absolutely great characters in real life as well. The interview with them was SUPER enjoyable.
As soon i heard his voice 02:25 i cant stop smiling. Victor best boy
someone is crushing real hard eh ;)
Same hereee
love how his name is viktor
This is probably the best show I've ever seen. Went in with zero knowledge and expectations, and finished the show being absolutely blown away. Words can't express how much of a masterpiece this show is.
Hey I've seen you around on a few videos.
Glad you enjoyed the show mate. It's amazing and definitely deserves the praise.
Can proudly say I went in with 10/10 expectations and finished with my expectations exceeded by a lot
@@badreddinekasmi8919 Yeah I'm everywhere right now 😂
Can't get enough of Arcane content.
You must not have seen many shows then, but it is a great show.
Idem, man. I couldn't believe it when it was over... my heart was crushed and I had dried tears on my cheeks because I cared so much for these characters that the finale took me by surprise
crazy how so much of the cast are acting so well while putting on different accents! jinx is actually english and caitlyn is actually scottish?! Vander is played by someone from france?! and viktor is played by someone from england?! Its crazy!
Riot's creactor has been working on this job for a long time, it's the success of hard working and creative
Vanders voice actor was born in France but grew up in England.
Viktor sounds Russian or from the Netherlands region to me.
@@bwingbwinggwiyomi i read somewhere that harry used a czech accent he used for a previous film he was in.
Toks voice was so soothing every time Mel talked it was like a cat purring
Can't blame Jayce, I could see myself turning corrupt for Mel if she asked me to lol
Wow good way to describe it.
Her voice is very calming. I guess that speaks to her character though. The type of voice you would easy trust and rely on.
"Look who it is, the boy saviour"... Jesus, the emotion behind the voice is incredible!
The way that line was delivered was so awesome. How the hell did she do that?
@@onewhocansea4228 I agree...
One of my fave moments was the "that's meee!" when Silco is scolding her cause is do effortlessly Jinx if that makes sense
@@biazacha 🤣... Yeah, with the grin and goggless...
I just hope someday people realize that Riot made arcane and not Netflix. The distributor should not get full credit for a show.
And lets not forget Fortiche Production for actually making the show
I think Netflix did produced it, so they get to share credits as well.
@@reymarckessaguirre5082 On Wikipedia it says that the production companies are Riot and Fortiche Production. Netflix is just the network.
Yeah but Netflix is an executive producer so Netflix will still get the glory but who cares we all know LOL and Riot so we all know who to give credit. I am just happy on the results
I hope some day Brandon realises that Fortiche made Arcane and not Riot. Riot made the game.
This show was incredible. I've never been so emotional invested in any show, let alone an animated one, in a long time. This voice actors were a big part of that so well done everyone!
man I don't even like animated stuff as I am more into real cinema but man o man Arcane had everything, emotions story everything
It's a one in a generation thing, they should take like 2 years to make season 2
Animated stuff can make some of the most emotional stuff.
The way Viktor's VA describes him, almost hints at Augmented Viktor in S2
either that or i think he’s the only cast member that plays league
2:46 love it when VAs do live voices
I'm so surprised is Ella purnell! Her accent is spot on, her voice is so perfect for Jinx
Omg, she was perfectly cast! All of the little squeaks and cracks in her voice brought all the tumultuous emotions Jinx was experiencing to life so fully and beautifully.
Bro, I'm in love with the way Ella talks about Jinx. She understands her character so wellll
I can listen to Victor for HOURS!!!!!! such a fantastic performance 👏
AGREED
Damn all of the actors look somewhat like the character they are voicing, this is amazing
The creator of riot has been finding VA for 3 years
When it comes to human characters, they usually are drawn to match the actor's actual look as well.
If someone told me at the start of the year that my favorite show of 2021 is going to be an animated League of Legends show, I would laugh in their face. But this show is by far the best thing I have watched this year, a true masterpiece and every voice actor nailed it. This show is going to be a benchmark for animated shows going forward, and also for character driven shows in general.
same-
Always loved Harry Lloyd's voice. If you guys listened to Game of Thrones' Conquests and Rebellions, he did a fantastic narration there.
Also "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" - can really recommend
Yes, imo he is the perfect choice to pick up on what Roy Dotrice left when he died, some years ago.
Tbf he was great in the Game of Thrones TV show. Viserys is a very underrated character!
I didn't know Toks Olagundoye...but I knew that she was Mel immediately when I Googled the cast. Mel is a reflection of Toks' elegeance.
She's such a KWEEN!
I thought Mel speaks American English while Toks speak British English, is it intended ? I thought British English accent would be appropriate to that character.
Harry Lloyd absolutely did Viktor justice, he was playing Viktor at the Undercity Night against Phreak of all people lmao. happy to see him invested in project even afterwards
yall should try interviewing more of the VAs, especially Silco since he was such fun on the stream, and possibly Hailee Steinfeld
Wow they never even met and they still managed to portray the characters and their feelings perfectly. Truly amazing!
Amazing show. Characters - Jinx is the best creation equally supported by Ms. Ella Purnell , Viktor is earthly character done full justice by Mr. Harry Lloyd, Silco was voice supported honesty and Mel Medarda is created beautifully exotic. You don't forget any of these characters after the show, they remain with you. So beautifully created. Hats off to the creators.
So beautifully written, well said!
why is mel exotic
@@Freddy-im2hd She's Noxian. She's an outsider to the entire kingdom Piltover & Zaun. Therefore, she has a different accent (I legitimately could not pinpoint her real world origin, but I'm sure someone else) than everyone else in the council. A voice that sounds alluring, a personality that embraces the unknown, a character that is so elegant and knowledgeable and encapsulates all that is upstanding about Pilotover.
kinda sus to call the POC character exotic but I agree with everything else you said!
@@michellekim93 she's exotic bc she's outsider
arcane is what made me fall in love with jinx and vi (and have a crush on them too)
omg all the voice actors kind of look like their characters!
Imagine if we got a live action trailer with them all?
@@jonbaxter2254 i dont think that would be a good idea
@@LeMagnifiquePetiteEspirit Oh I know, Cowboy Bebop proves live action is a bad idea. I just think it might be cool to see them all, having the voice actorsw all kinda look like their characters.
@@jonbaxter2254 i dont know if you are being sarcastic or not since i havent watched the live action Cowboy bebop. Is it good?
@@LeMagnifiquePetiteEspirit Nah, no sarcasm man. It's bad. The og is still always good tho.

Harry Lloyd voicing Viktor already sold the character out to me (been a fan since Robin Hood back in the day), but I totally fell in love with him... Damn.
When Viktors va suddenly switched to his biktor accent that easily my heart did a little thing 😭💳💥💳💥💳
seeing toks irl!!!! I can see the elegance of her voice manifested in her nature wow good job girl
While all the actors were fantastic, there is something special about Viktor, incredible performances
Imagine playing LOL and one of your teammates suspiciously sounds like Jinx or Vicktor.
Jinx's actress has the same anime huge eyes in real life, kinda unblievable...
the voice actor of viktor, is viktor himself!!
man they look so similar, the way he talks, so effortless
Man...I'm in LOVE with their VOICES!
The way they portrayed these characters and their personalities with their voice acting is superb, also kudos to the team who casted such perfect actors
Sadness, happiness, excitement, depresion. Never I had so many emotions watching a show a true masterpiece.
GLORIOUS EVOLUTION TIMESTAMPS

2:33
I am now so inlove with Viktor now that I know Harry Lloyd has voiced this
Harry has a lovely voice! Could listen to him all day...
I love the actors talking about the fans and respecting what came before when a lot of the people, like me, had no idea of any of that coming in.
The Victor voice actor was also in Game of thrones
viserys!
I love how passionate they all seem about their characters! Truly an amazing performance from all of them.
i know years ago ive been begging riot to create something amazing like arcane, but i wonder what they could achieve if they create a single-player story-rich game that encompasses the world of runeterra... i get goosebumps just thinking about it!
Riot's MMORPG when 👀
I am not really a fan of League, but when I saw the amazing world building in Arcane, I realized I need a LOL RPG.
They are creating one that is a game for Nunu and Willump
hoping the ekko platformer game gets a nice story that is canon to go along with it
Ruined King
Jinx's actress looks like a character from the arcane univers, she can totally play Jinx in a live action show
Harry Llloyd can wear as Viktor and I would totally be glad if he does
its so incredible to me that this is some of the best voice acting ive heard and most of, if not all of them, had not met each other during production. it takes some real talent to do that! im excited for the next season!

Twisted fate 🙂
Loved this show. Loved every character including the villains. Very very well made. I hope this gets more seasons in the future. Now, the problem is, how long am I going to wait for another season?
That’s the thing. I imagine animation takes a helluva long time to make, especially that of arcane’s quality.
Season 2 is offically in production, coming 2023 from what I've heard
@@asbolusarts late 2023... but wouldn't be surprised if it gets pushed back t0 2024. i don't care if it it takes till 2025.
Ella Purnell is just, breathtaking....
Enforcer Grayson voice,also the best on that series...
She is the veteran of v.a
Yeah, she sounds familiar. Like she had been VA in Avatar Korra or something.
Shohreh Aghdashloo :) Also playing Avasalara on The Expanse, and is voice acting few games (Destiny 2, Mass Effect).
Viserys targaryen now victor oh my good all of them for me are perfect cast 🥰 excited for s2 😊✌
Jinx and victors vas look exactly like i expected for some reason
I knew I've heard of Victor voice!!!!! Of course he is from the house of dragon ❤ He did such a great acting and also reading the GOT stories
I wanna see Ella Purnell cosplay Jinx
viktor said "season 1" not "show"/"series" curious
Season 2 has been confirmed for quite a while now
his name is harry 😭💀

I just want to say one thing to all this voices! Thank you! Thank you SO MUCH!
Harry Lloyd looks like a Mix of the best characteristics of Tom Hiddleston, James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender. Hahahahahaha!
It’s just so satisfying to see how much respect they have for the story and the community behind the game!!
The old officer lady had the best voice.
Oh god Toks Olagundoye's voice is perfect in real life too. Such a great choice for Mel. All of them are mind-blowing frankly...
I got hyped when I heard the voice actor talk like Viktor lmao
they got all the characters' VA on point!!
I hope that jinx's VA is not exactly like her hahahahahaah
Nice to see Ella Purnell get some respect for voicing Jinx, because some people were complaining about her acting in Army of The Dead. She was the lead in the TV series Sweet Bitter and I thought she did great.
I'm obsessed with arcane. I wasn't going to watch it but my friend convinced me and now I can't stop thinking about it 🤣
This is by far the greatest animated series in a long long time. It absolutely blows me away.
Jinx did really well with her voice acting, I nearly started crying watching Arcane to be honest..
All the voice actors did an amazing job really, hats off to them
The fact that they've only met when they were 11, it's like Vi and Jinx/Powder last met years ago
I couldn't believe jinx was voiced by that girl from kickass 2
It's funny how many times Riot has hired people for their show and they're like "League of Legends?.... what's that?". Like Madison Beer lol.
Every voice actors and actress are so perfect. Love this ❤️ as one of league's player since 2011.
All great actors ....but have to say that jinx's voice was soo on point tho.....at the tea party in the end you could definitely hear all the madness and sometimes all the pain and grief by the tone the actress adopted in the lines.....truly a great job...👏👏
Ok now I love victor even more haha
Viktor's VA also played Viserys in GOT
One of the best things on this show was definitely the voice acting! Absolutely phenomenal!
Victor Targeryaen supremacy
Ella's eyes are the same size as Ginx's.
Jinx*
Purnell and Steinfeld are really amazing in this.

What I find equaly crazy is that the actors could totally portray live action versions of the characters they play
I wish Ella talked more about Powder's backstory. because I wasn't a league of legends fan before the show and I domt know any lore outside or arcane so the whole show was new to me
We're all getting to know Powder and more of the lore together! 🙏
Isn't powder has her own voice actor? Even though they are the same person in the world, she has 2 VA for each version.. unlike Vi..
@@GReyn That's right! Powder was voiced by Mia Sinclair Jenness.
Arcane is literally her backstory... lol
As peeps have been saying there isnt much more, arcane is a fleshing out of what we already know
They did most of the voice recordings in Covid over Zoom!?!?! Thats actually crazy!
Nah, i think more like interviews, job meetings, what is changed. LIke a seminar... voices are recorded in some kind of studio.
For about the last ten years Ghost in the Shell SAC was my favorite animation ever. Arcane got a baseball bat and SMASHED it out of the park. I have never fallen in love with so many characters, I've never felt such amazing voice acting matched with on drawn emotions and the animation itself- just like, ...---- I don't really have words for it's brilliance I can rewatch and rewatch and rewatch this show unlike ANY piece of media that I've ever seen in my whole 30 years of existence.

How many times have you rewatched Arcane?
Jinx's voice actress has same big eyes!😊
That would have been a perfect video if it specify that the animation (and +) was made by Fortiche Studio and not Riot
They deserves much more exposition and acknowledgement for their hardwork
is that vaserys targaryen? i cant recognize him without the silver hair wig
amazing show in all aspects.
direction, design, voices, everything!
This is the greatest show that I have ever seen. I am 43 years old and have seen a lot of shows.
The voice actor of jinx is beautiful
Her eyes are ginormous.
No idea what I was jumping into, but now I'm addicted to this world
the series is great waiting for everyshow they plan to show😍
Ohhh Ella Purnell played Jinx? Cool!
Well done everyone. Your performances were fantastic.
Never played the game but show is fantastic. Congratulations
victors voice actor looks like victor lol
Oh wow I did not know Ella Purnell voiced Powder. I loved her in other things I've watched, and she's done an incredible job in Arcane!
I don’t think she voiced powder only jinx! I don’t know if that was what you meant, sorry
