Happy New Year, M&D fam!! We love y’all 💖 CaitVi is finally back LOL 🧁 LFG!! If you want the uncut version, please consider joining our Patreon! Patreon: Patreon.com/meeshanddee Discord: www.Discord.gg/meeshanddee
Just recently realized: "Did you really think I needed ALL the guards at the Hexgates?" = "I purposely made them all leave this cell to facilitate your sister's escape" "You've grown a bit predictable" = "I knew you were gonna free her behind my back ;)"
Cait choosing Vi over her vengeance for her mom, she didn't even know if Vi was not going to just ran away with Jinx. She saw what Singed was doing and she knows she's not like that. I love them so much, I'm so happy because they both needed a family. I can't believe we got that scene, thank you Amanda Overton for giving our girls everything 💖
There was so much about the Cait/Vi scene to love…. How Cait was going to be honest and tell her she was with someone else….and Vi giving ZERO fucks because she has her cupcake back. Then Cait is the one who rips her shirt off in front of Vi very aggressively, but then is soft and gentle undoing Vi’s wrapping…and is then CONTINUALLY gentle with her. Gently caressing her, touching her softly where she hit her with her rifle as if to say “I’m sorry….I will NEVER hurt you again!”, giggling with her in pure joy because she is FINALLY with who she truly WANTS to be with. And Vi…alternating between being very aggressive with Cait, and then being very gentle with her. Showing Cait that it has basically been her….ALWAYS. Just such a perfect love story for these two. People said that they actually did it in season 1 at some point, but this scene right here is almost irrefutable proof that THIS is their first time. The gentle touches, the way that they look at each others bodies, the happy giggle when fumbling to get undressed....just all so PERFECT!!!! It wasn't about sex...it was about love, trust, letting go, giving in, and intimacy...all the things they NEEDED in that moment with each other, knowing what was about to come. So happy I got my Violyn back.
@@MeeshDeeReactsThe scene with Violet and Caitlyn in the cell was originally longer 😅 But they shortened it. Original the longer version is on the hard drive in France. It's great to see that Riot Games gave Fortiche a thumbs up so they didn't overdo it and upset the fan base and their curiosity to see it with the cut.
Fun fact: when interviewed, someone from Fortiche said they had to tone down the caitvi jail scene to avoid being rated mature The original scene is "somewhere on a hard drive" in their studio
The ending sequence is one of my favorite sequences in the entire show. Watching Viktor reach his highest form, all those people levitate and transform to the tune of "The Line" by Twenty One Pilots (one of my favorite songs in the s2 OST btw) was just ethereal. Beautiful and terrifying scene.
I literally screamed and was in shock when I saw this ep, jaw was on the floor🤣 but can we talk about my favorite character Caitlyn for a second and how well they wrote her character. I know this whole season she’s been bent on getting jinx which honestly I never blamed her for, her feelings were valid to feel imo but she always still carried what I love most about her which was compassion which we saw heavily in s1 and now also in s2 throughout her character change and development. We saw glimpses of it when she told Ambessa that “arrest require cause, why is peace always the justification for violence,” again when she was reunited with Vi and Vi told her about Vander/Warwick being her dad. Then this ep, She knew Vi was going to go try and bust jinx out and let her have that by sending all the guards away. When jinx was in the cell, she personally kept trying to feed her, they also took away her hair ties and shoelaces and anything she could’ve used to harm herself bc they knew she was going more and more off the deep end and I bet Caitlyn ordered that. She also didn’t do anything to jinx until she could talk to Vi when she woke. In a way, Caitlyn somewhat forgave jinx through her actions for Vi and realized that the hunter she’s been this season, isn’t really her. Also Happy new year to you guys tooo!!🎉
I never noticed it before, but thr noxians gave Isha a warrior furenal , you can see her hat on the grave next to Rickters. This show really left no stone unturned
I originally included a slowed down clip of this in the edit, but while the grave marking looks like Isha's hat, you'll notice that Noxians are given a rock to top each gravestone, some of which can be round in shape. You can see this at the beginning of the episode where they finish burying Rictus and they place a rounded stone atop his grave. As much as I wanted to believe they would've given Isha this honor, the grave ppl think has Isha's hat is a rounded rock upon closer inspection
@@hungryrabbiddawg got to be honest, i've just rewatched the clip and to me it's a helmet - it's the only one with a rim and the cairn is a lot smaller than the others even though it's in the foreground. i'm pretty certain it's Isha's grave and i think the Noxians *would* have buried her with honours. on the right hand side of the "helmet" there is definitely a hint of something that could be the goggles and their shadow.
@raverdeath100 I definitely will look at this again then! It was my sincerest hope they intended this cuz I hated that we got no mention of Isha in this third act aside from the one in Vi's fever dreams.
A detail I like in the jail scene is that Cait doesn't just open the door and walk away like in season 1. She actually goes inside the cell with Vi this time Vi is blaming herself for all the people she's lost, saying it's all her fault and probably feeling like she deserves to be in prison all alone, to be punished for her mistakes. But Cait in just one action and a couple words says "no, you're not alone. We released Jinx together, and whether it goes well or it goes poorly, the blame is on both of us, not just you. Take some of that weight from your shoulders and let me help you carry it"
Thanks for the reactions & good insights! Around 25:46, you mention, "Vi probably hasn't showered...". But if you look at her, she wakes up in Cait's bed with change of clothes & her black greasy hair is no more, which most probably means Cait cleaned Vi up while tending to her injuries.❤️
Wait!! Vi was clean! 😂 remember she looked like a angry oil slick? She wakes up in Cait’s room and we can guess she showered Vi 🥹 My other favorite scene here is when Caitlyn and Jinx finally have the chance to talk 🤍
I had a feeling you'd love this episode, can't quite put my finger on why though hehehehehe! Can't wait for your reaction to the last episode, Happy New Year!!!
6:35 As Ambessa stands before Rictus' tomb, there is a smaller one just to the right. The top is shaped like a miner's helmet. That's Isha's tomb. The Noxians gave her a hero's funeral for her bravery and sacrifice in the battle.
I was BUZZING!! I tell you BUZZING! when that scene hit. I almost screamed at 2 am LOOOL. I mean... Undercity did eat her alive, IFYKYK 😏 Sry... I just had too 🤣🤣🤣

(No sweet chaotic baby Jinx/Powder, we just saw you be so good in the last episode in the AU and you were so good this whole season in THIS world!!!!!

This is one of my top episodes. Great scenes in a jail cell. Mel coming into her power. And the 21 Pilots song. Love y'all's enthusiasm! Not just for the show, but for all the Runeterra lore.
The black rose doesn't "violate" the Noxian principle of being equal on the battlefield. Many Noxians are just mad that they aint the strongest. Quite some Noxian armies in the lore have used Magic. The Black Rose is just powerful. Noxians don't like other powerful Noxians.
The scene with Violet and Caitlyn in the cell was originally longer 😅 But they shortened it. Original the longer version is on the hard drive in France. It's great to see that Riot Games gave Fortiche a thumbs up so they didn't overdo it and upset the fan base and their curiosity to see it with the cut.
The follower Jayce and Mel fight was Huck. You can tell by the necklace he was wearing being embedded in the chest of the follower. And its golden head/arm representing the areas he had affected by the shimmer. :( his fate is so sad
I get the feeling many people miss that the bright/happy world from episode 7 isn't just a result of the absence of Hextec. Heimerdinger said he came there nearly 3 years earlier and said he "was able to do a lot of great things". In the end of season 1 Heimerdinger's eyes were opened to the suffering of the Undercity and he spend some time with the Firelights. My guess he immediately started to make changes considering he's was still the head of Piltover's council in that universe.
The song during the scene when Vader's mind is leaving Warwick, is 'Twenty One Pilots - The Line'. A great song written for his grandmother after she died.
9:25 to be fair she was in a relationship with Cait and then was brushed away like an unwanted step child the moment Vi came back into the picture so it would make sense to eventually not trust her as a viewer but I understand. She was obsessed with Cait which leads to my theory about her crimes 😂
I always get sad watching Ambessa see Mel for the first time. She genuinely thought she had lost her like Kino, and when she went in for the hug, Mel didn't reciprocate it. Just goes to show ANOTHER broken relationship in Arcane. THANKS RIOT
I think the people that feel s2 was rushed was in very specific moments that include but are not limited to: 1. Viktor waking up after the explosion and mixing with the hextek and 10s hes like "yeah im gone bye" 2. Vi being all "I hate enforcers" but through a 3s convo with maddie she changes her mind. 3. Vi going from all angry and ready to kill jinx to following her to a cave to look for "vander" ( i dont agree at all with this one, i think Vi wouldn't have killed her cause she still loves her sister, and the idea of vander being alive will make her cooperate easily) 4. Caitlyn goes from hateful vengeful dictator to completely loyal and loving Vi from first sight when they met in Zaun. 5. The black rose thing for non league lore watchers was random and quick. 6. Some extra scenes in the finale related to Ambessa and others that I wont spoil... While I do agree the "arcs" were quick (in the show at least cause there were some time skips to justify ppl changing their mind), I dont think it made the show worse because i can still understand the arc they went through without seeing all of it in detail, just reading between the lines. And I dont think this really justifies making another season but if they had a bit more episodes than 9 we would've gotten to see some more heartbreaking development and madness arcs from cait that sell the story more
3:35 oh, she will be! There were various leaks recently basically confirming she's coming to both LoL and Legends of Runeterra, probably this month. Honestly it's even expected that we're getting a teaser this week and she might hit PBE next Tuesday!
I remember seeing something on twitter that said its ironic that Vi calls Powder the jinx when as it is show in ep 7 without Vi the world is very different. And like Vi even says in this episode she chooses wrong everytime! one might say the true jinx was Vi all along
Its nice to see cait realizing she pushed the one person she cared about away, let her free her sister, and probably thought maybe she didnt deserve affection that VI gave her in return. When she talks to jinx and says "OUR crimes" she knows she has done some really bad things, in VI freeing jinx, she let her love for VI be greater than her hate for jinx.
Instead of getting it on with Cait, Vi should've went to go find Jinx immediately... Also, Jayce and Viktor are like brothers, nothing more than a platonic relationship and it's kind of annoying how so many people are trying to make it more than that...
In TFT Mel is s hybrid means she build both magic snd attack damage. she converts the attack damage into magic damage and her ult shoots a bunch of energy bullets/missle. It might just be a tft thing but she could be like Senna
9:19 "Who decides who gets a second chance" and while Caitlyn does seem to really hate herself for cozying up to Ambessa, and hates what Jinx has done... and all that is in these lines in that moment... I kind of think in that moment she looks pained and she's thinking... does she get a second chance with Vi?
Just to be clear, a note from the director of arcane(i thinking thats his position)... The Vi and caitlyn scene used to be twice as long and more spicy, but they had to cut and tone it down because of some requests from Netflix.
Well, Vi was right about Caitlyn. The Undercity did, in fact, eat her alive. also, that's the tame version of the scene. They created a much spicier one, but cut it down to keep to the age ratings. I want to see this version.
Total coincidence. I'm having trouble recalling where Mel's ability does that though - the only ability where I remember her granting something over 9k is a 10k shield to allies if you have a 3star Mel. Good eyes though!
That is something I never understood about Ambessas actions - she says she loves her daughter, but keeps her at arms length while maintaining the philosophy of being superior & against magic users - which, she KNEW her daughter was all along. I get the idea of establishing & using magic powered weaponry against their adversaries, but by her logic; eventually Mel would become a target for her to zero in on. The excuse of “protecting the family & the value of family “ goes out the window. I mean, maybe it was all a lie for Mel’s sake, but the outcome will eventually be tragi,c either way.
The moment Cait gave Jinx a second chance she deserved a second chance from Vi.Vi could have left Piltover with her sister forever and Cait was willing to let her go.That shows how much she loves Vi... she will always choose Vi..
King Princess was a perfect choice for the CaitVi scene. The Arcane OST is killing it. Hope you both get to react to the OST and the bands behind the OST and the Arcane performance in the game awards.
Survive Arcane it’s also living great moments despise the very traumatic ones 😂 Also the montage of this episode is sick! I laugh so much at the Moms and Dad and Mom disputes 😂 it was a great move
I think that the prison scene between Cait and Vi is meh, not the scene per se, but just the fact that Jinx basically told Vi that she is gonna kill herself or someting and the next thing Vi does is have sex. What? It would have been ok to have it before that or after some time passed, but right after her sister vanished saying ""you don't have to worry about me anymore"?
21:40 is honestly just straight up wrong unless Ambessa has a twisted personal view of Noxus, she sounds more like a Demacian there, but instead of fear she's arguing for equity. Noxus is a pure meritocracy, some of the most powerful figures of Noxus are mages. She also despises the third pillar of Noxus: Guile even though she employs it herself it seems, probably shaped by her experiences with the Rose. When Arcane was not canon, we had no reason to believe they'd include the Black Rose, in fact Ambessa's mother specifies that a MAN killed Kino in season 1, one with more resources than their entire family and with the constant appearances of ravens throughout the series it was clear who it was. I think Riot saw not just Arcane succeeding, but once compounded with the complete failure of their Marvel comic deal, Riot Forge: their 3rd party publishing arm and Legends of Runeterra their first new game developed after League in which they were significantly invested in and were forced to make Arcane canon, then sort of dredged the Black Rose into it. Arcane was the only venture that could carry the Runeterra IP so they went all in for better or worse -_- The story as is works on it's own merit, but it was clearly never meant to be canon. They didn't even drop proper nouns unrelated to P&Z in season 1: "Runeterra", "Rune Wars", "Noxus". Making the Brackern non-canon due to a large controversy concerning another pink-haired empathic mage also is what probably inspired "The Arcane" as a concept, as its' kinda a catch all for the various kinds of magic in Runeterra from other regions, has elements of Celestial magic, Spiritual magic and the Void too, so much so that people thought Viktor was infected by the Void in Season 1.

Just recently realized:
"Did you really think I needed ALL the guards at the Hexgates?" = "I purposely made them all leave this cell to facilitate your sister's escape"
"You've grown a bit predictable" = "I knew you were gonna free her behind my back ;)"
And it all means Caitlyn chose loving Vi over hating Jinx.
It wasn't even behind her back. It was Cait answering Vi's question "who gets to choose who gets a second chance" Vi does.
I mean, yeah? Was that unclear?
@cursedmadman No, I'm just slow
You arent slow a lot of people didn’t get it
Vi in season1: "the undercity will eat you alive"
Caitlyn in season 2: *was indeed being eaten by the undercity alive*
Haha "Let's keep this G rated" quickly followed by Vi going for that cupcake
Cait choosing Vi over her vengeance for her mom, she didn't even know if Vi was not going to just ran away with Jinx. She saw what Singed was doing and she knows she's not like that. I love them so much, I'm so happy because they both needed a family. I can't believe we got that scene, thank you Amanda Overton for giving our girls everything 💖
My heart goes to Vander. Imagine the last remaining shreds of humanity left in you erased by the very same guy who tried to heal you.
😭🥺🥺
I feel sorry for Isha. She sacrificed her life to stop Vander from himself and it was all for nothing.
There was so much about the Cait/Vi scene to love….
How Cait was going to be honest and tell her she was with someone else….and Vi giving ZERO fucks because she has her cupcake back.
Then Cait is the one who rips her shirt off in front of Vi very aggressively, but then is soft and gentle undoing Vi’s wrapping…and is then CONTINUALLY gentle with her. Gently caressing her, touching her softly where she hit her with her rifle as if to say “I’m sorry….I will NEVER hurt you again!”, giggling with her in pure joy because she is FINALLY with who she truly WANTS to be with.
And Vi…alternating between being very aggressive with Cait, and then being very gentle with her. Showing Cait that it has basically been her….ALWAYS. Just such a perfect love story for these two.
People said that they actually did it in season 1 at some point, but this scene right here is almost irrefutable proof that THIS is their first time.

So happy I got my Violyn back.
15:16 love the subtle “Fantastic” dub (and all the other subtle additions, comments, and pickups)
Time to unleash the cupcakes!

Cup them cakes!
Cake them cups!

I was going to mention this! Apparently the original scene they had planned was A LOTTT more detailed Lol
It took time, but Vi finally got to eat her cupcake.
I already knew the reaction to Vi and Cait finally ''doing it'', would be hilarious 😄😄And I was not wrong.

My other favorite scene here is when Caitlyn and Jinx finally have the chance to talk 🤍
I always found it interesting and quite telling that of all the people Jinx could've imagined telling her to walk away from the cycle, Silco does.
The video title we all knew was coming finally
FINALLY 😆🥵🧁🫘
The editing magic of "passenger" being sang under the words every time Mel and Jayce said it was killing me in the best way 😂😂
LMFAO "Let's keep this G-Rated." - - Editor sneaks in that Fallout Boy clip like an absolute MAD LAD 😆🤣 19:55
People needed tissues for a different reason this episode...
(I'm so sorry 😂🙏)
'IT'S OVER NINE THOUSANDDD!'
Hahaha nice touch
20:23 someone´s mad thirsty after that scene...😂
ohh you guys are gonna love ep 9
I'm always so happy when y'all upload these! I can't wait for the reaction to the last ep 😁
Aww thank you for watching with us!! 🥹❤️ this ep was wild lmao 🧁
The last episode broke me
The fact that Viktor's "mask" manifests by splitting his face...... that shit was insane
It’s so sad seeing Jinx with her hair down 😭
And we finally get the scene we’ve been waiting for, but in the jail cell is crazy 😂
We’re finally here!! 🤣❤️
I had a feeling you'd love this episode, can't quite put my finger on why though hehehehehe! Can't wait for your reaction to the last episode, Happy New Year!!!
*”Cait, I don’t fucking care”* Vi and Cait have now dethroned Charlie and Vaggie from Hazbin Hotel as my favorite lesbian couple.
10000 🥹❤️
"Feels like my noise is breeding" 😂😂😂😂
Mel being given the Sailor Moon transformation treatment always makes me smile.

ooo I'm very early lol
love your reactions !! I'm sad your arcane reactions will be over soon though
So sad the arcane journey is nearing… but don’t worry we’ll have more League content soon! 🙏🏼😊
Oh my gosh there’s only one left!! It’s been a fun ride with you 😭
Been so much fun 🥹❤️
The "Underground" ate her alive.
Loving all the animation content keep up the good work and happy new years you two
Happy new year! We appreciate you ❤️
guys.... oil and water make cupcakes... they were making cupcakes in that celll
I’m not ready for this to be over again 😭
The song during the scene when Vader's mind is leaving Warwick, is 'Twenty One Pilots - The Line'. A great song written for his grandmother after she died.
Vi predicted, that it would happen, since she said in S1 where they first met: the underground is going to eat you alive 😂

While I do agree the "arcs" were quick (in the show at least cause there were some time skips to justify ppl changing their mind), I dont think it made the show worse because i can still understand the arc they went through without seeing all of it in detail, just reading between the lines.
And I dont think this really justifies making another season but if they had a bit more episodes than 9 we would've gotten to see some more heartbreaking development and madness arcs from cait that sell the story more
THE WAY I SAW THIS BUT I SKIPPED IT TO WATCH IT IN MY FREE TIME.. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE EPISODES AND I WAS WAITING FOR YALL TO WATCH ITTT

This episode: *So that was a fkin lie*
This episode was awesome and i'm glad That Caitlyn and Vi had their moment.That was the best part Of the episode.❤️🏳️🌈❤️🏳️🌈❤️🏳️🌈
❤️❤️❤️
Vi finally saw the Kirammountains 😮❤❤❤
Almost there! Get the tissues ready!
3:35 oh, she will be! There were various leaks recently basically confirming she's coming to both LoL and Legends of Runeterra, probably this month. Honestly it's even expected that we're getting a teaser this week and she might hit PBE next Tuesday!
YESSSS EPISODE 8
Can’t wait for the finale! 👏🏽
I remember seeing something on twitter that said its ironic that Vi calls Powder the jinx when as it is show in ep 7 without Vi the world is very different. And like Vi even says in this episode she chooses wrong everytime! one might say the true jinx was Vi all along
I love your reactions love 🙌
Its nice to see cait realizing she pushed the one person she cared about away, let her free her sister, and probably thought maybe she didnt deserve affection that VI gave her in return. When she talks to jinx and says "OUR crimes" she knows she has done some really bad things, in VI freeing jinx, she let her love for VI be greater than her hate for jinx.
Instead of getting it on with Cait, Vi should've went to go find Jinx immediately...
Also, Jayce and Viktor are like brothers, nothing more than a platonic relationship and it's kind of annoying how so many people are trying to make it more than that...
Was the Isha's hat to the right in 6:34?
Kind of interesting how you noticed Viktor looks kinda like Kindred there... Especially since he was actively turning Warwick, who is a wolf...
15:18 EXACTLYYYY
In TFT Mel is s hybrid means she build both magic snd attack damage. she converts the attack damage into magic damage and her ult shoots a bunch of energy bullets/missle. It might just be a tft thing but she could be like Senna
I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned it, but I'm surprised Meesh didn't mention anything about the person playing the piano.
9:19 "Who decides who gets a second chance" and while Caitlyn does seem to really hate herself for cozying up to Ambessa, and hates what Jinx has done... and all that is in these lines in that moment... I kind of think in that moment she looks pained and she's thinking... does she get a second chance with Vi?
Just to be clear, a note from the director of arcane(i thinking thats his position)...
The Vi and caitlyn scene used to be twice as long and more spicy, but they had to cut and tone it down because of some requests from Netflix.
Well, Vi was right about Caitlyn. The Undercity did, in fact, eat her alive.
also, that's the tame version of the scene. They created a much spicier one, but cut it down to keep to the age ratings. I want to see this version.
Vi had been in a coma after the explosion. Days must have passed, she was wearing different clothes than before.
3:25 not sure if this was an intentional reference, but Mel 3 in TFT gives your little legend over 9000 health 😂
Total coincidence. I'm having trouble recalling where Mel's ability does that though - the only ability where I remember her granting something over 9k is a 10k shield to allies if you have a 3star Mel. Good eyes though!
My favorite reaction vid from y'all! 🫶
Y'all eyes were having a field day with every second of every scene 👍
🤣🤣🫶🏼❤️
Vi did say that the undercity would eat Caitlyn alive.
That is something I never understood about Ambessas actions - she says she loves her daughter, but keeps her at arms length while maintaining the philosophy of being superior & against magic users - which, she KNEW her daughter was all along. I get the idea of establishing & using magic powered weaponry against their adversaries, but by her logic; eventually Mel would become a target for her to zero in on. The excuse of “protecting the family & the value of family “ goes out the window. I mean, maybe it was all a lie for Mel’s sake, but the outcome will eventually be tragi,c either way.
The moment Cait gave Jinx a second chance she deserved a second chance from Vi.Vi could have left Piltover with her sister forever and Cait was willing to let her go.That shows how much she loves Vi... she will always choose Vi..
Honestly knowing Viktors league lore this was expected, his turn to being "evil"
Apparently the Cait and Vi scene was cut down. It was going to be even steamier
Watch when they show the Noxxian graves as Mel is going to see her mom, they have one dedicated to Isha.
'That's LeBlanc right?'
Honestly after the Ryze debacle I don't even know lol
This proves that if you blast a hole in metal jesus he's not going to turn the other check. He's going to get his payback.
Well.. Vi was right - the undercity did eat Caitlyn alive.
😆😆😆
King Princess was a perfect choice for the CaitVi scene. The Arcane OST is killing it. Hope you both get to react to the OST and the bands behind the OST and the Arcane performance in the game awards.
Peak has arrived
Survive Arcane it’s also living great moments despise the very traumatic ones 😂
Also the montage of this episode is sick! I laugh so much at the Moms and Dad and Mom disputes 😂 it was a great move
Happy New Year!! 😉
I think that the prison scene between Cait and Vi is meh, not the scene per se, but just the fact that Jinx basically told Vi that she is gonna kill herself or someting and the next thing Vi does is have sex. What? It would have been ok to have it before that or after some time passed, but right after her sister vanished saying ""you don't have to worry about me anymore"?
The undercity ate dem cupcakes.🥰🥲
21:40 is honestly just straight up wrong unless Ambessa has a twisted personal view of Noxus, she sounds more like a Demacian there, but instead of fear she's arguing for equity. Noxus is a pure meritocracy, some of the most powerful figures of Noxus are mages. She also despises the third pillar of Noxus: Guile even though she employs it herself it seems, probably shaped by her experiences with the Rose. When Arcane was not canon, we had no reason to believe they'd include the Black Rose, in fact Ambessa's mother specifies that a MAN killed Kino in season 1, one with more resources than their entire family and with the constant appearances of ravens throughout the series it was clear who it was. I think Riot saw not just Arcane succeeding, but once compounded with the complete failure of their Marvel comic deal, Riot Forge: their 3rd party publishing arm and Legends of Runeterra their first new game developed after League in which they were significantly invested in and were forced to make Arcane canon, then sort of dredged the Black Rose into it. Arcane was the only venture that could carry the Runeterra IP so they went all in for better or worse -_-
The story as is works on it's own merit, but it was clearly never meant to be canon. They didn't even drop proper nouns unrelated to P&Z in season 1: "Runeterra", "Rune Wars", "Noxus". Making the Brackern non-canon due to a large controversy concerning another pink-haired empathic mage also is what probably inspired "The Arcane" as a concept, as its' kinda a catch all for the various kinds of magic in Runeterra from other regions, has elements of Celestial magic, Spiritual magic and the Void too, so much so that people thought Viktor was infected by the Void in Season 1.
Y'all need to watch 'The Line' video by Twenty One Pilots. Might be the best song in the whole Arcane catalogue
