whoa hey thanks for reacting to my vid!! glad you enjoyed!!
I loved it mate! Thanks for taking the time to comment and keep up the great work!
Hey dude. I love your videos so much! You are also the reason I watched it to begin with and arcane has become by far my single favorite show ever.
Based takes and G-pilled
What's an 'Arcane'? Is that one o' them heathen witchcraft things? 🤪
I found your videos during The Last of Us run and I love your storytelling breakdowns and understanding of themes
I love that he highlights the EFFICIENCY of the storytelling. Nothing is oversaturated, it shows you all the possible angles of the same events that occur, and it shows how each character reacts to said events.
Another reason Arcane is so deep because the story isn't just told in the writing, everyone was basically allowed to add on to the story. The animators add on to the story, the voice actors added on to the story, and the music added on to the story.
The example of the Ashstray is really good, but for me the best example is the Ekko vs Jinx fight on the bridge, it told their full story and dynamic in such a gripping way in under 5 minutes. Its especially really good at nonverbal story telling, which is super fucking impressive for an animated show. Arcane has mastered 'Show, Don't Tell' so well and everyone understood the assignment to its fullest.
Hell, even the promotional materials understood the assignment. The Enemy music video adds more depth to Vi and Powder's relationship as well as Ekko and Powder's friendship. During each act, Riot had a website where its themed after a certain character's workspace, like Caitlyn's investigation files, which adds more detail and depth of backgroubd stuff and her thoughts on people and events. Around Act 3, Riot partnered with Secret Cinema to make a set of the Undercity where you can explore and roleplay with actors and it enhances the atmosphere and experience of the show to the people who got to visit.
heck they also diverted and did not do what they usally do and just spoil
"Geniuses having Genius problems, Idiots having Idiot problems." is probably the best joke anyone has made about Arcane.
😂I’m 7:44 minutes in and I’m going to have to stop and start again properly and watch when my mind is ready😂. So much is happening in this inception of videos.
1. Schnee literally deserves and honorary Arcane PhD at this point.
2. Nux’s reactions to the mind-blowingness is so refreshing 😂
3. Arcane’s team is freaking insane and at this point they might just be not human. I’m thinking extraterrestrial lifeforms🤔
Arcane is a Masterpiece
Facts bro!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Amen to that!
🙏🏼yes
It isn't.
it’s WAY BEYOND a masterpiece
i love schnee! his videos go into so much depth on story structure and characters. im so happy to see nux reacting to him!
Riot needs to hire schnee to advise on arcane season 3.
This show is a master class of "show don't tell", I've watched it like 4 times, and I notice something new every time. The parallels with Viktor's backstory, and him finally running for the first time, and overtaking boats in the distance... Chef's kiss. When Echo is spying on Vander and Benzo in EP 1, his little periscope invention looks through the mask he wears later in the series. Echo and Silco both mention that Jayce "didn't even haggle" showing his return to his original values after diverging midway through the series. That's just the tip of the iceberg, there is so much foreshadowing, so many Easter eggs, so much emotion and storytelling just from facial expressions and cracks in voices. It is, by a long shot, some of the best writing I've ever seen in a show- animated or otherwise.
To date, I've only ever given 3 shows (in their entirety) a 10/10 on IMDB: Breaking Bad, Avatar The Last Airbender, and Arcane.
I want to write an essay on the air and water symbolism in Arcane...
And also one on perceived identity vs internalized identity.
And also one on whether Silco is symbolically the rat or the cat from the shimmer experiment.
And ALSO...
Arcane doesn't fill a cup, it fills a bucket; & if the Stanley Parable has taught me anything its that buckets are truly something special.
I have to say, the animators at Fortiche(the ones who animated Arcane and many of the big League of Legends cinematics like the different Worlds AMVs) are god tier. They don't just animate well, they even are writers too, with how much small details to even the special effects and the sounds add extra depth to the abyss Arcane already is with its overall story and narrative.
And I swear, this show has to be set in history and be shown to anyone learning how to make art. It's just way too good not to be used as an example to students in class(and they'll be entertained too).
Modern day Shakespeare. Stuff that can be actually made into curriculum courses and studied. Just wild.
Honestly, having something like arcane happen is exponentially difficult, and the fact we got it once is amazing. IMO, like other people said, arcane tells the story not just in dialogue, visuals, or audio, but in all of them, and, what I find is INCREDIBLY hard and made it so good was the direction. Every person in this understood the tones, themes, story, etc. They added it in a way that played off of one another instead of creating an incongruance. With arcane having dozens of people working on it at any point, the fact that they were able to bring this to life with such cohesion is almost more amazing than the show itself.
and the story is not good a lot of plot holes and felt rush
@@Steven9567 huh? How does it feel rushed? Literally took them 6 years to make Arcane. And I would say the only plot hole is at the end where they ended in a cliffhanger, and keep in mind season 2 is still on its way.
Aaaand now nux is gonna binge schnee's videos just to find out what he missed!
I just don’t understand, *HOW* do you make a show this good??? There’s not one single show that’s ever been THIS well executed. It truly is the pinnacle of writing in a television medium
Holy shit, aren't some of these great themselves in Cyberpunk edge runner's? I hope these aninimated series are a good sign for the future of storytelling because I'm excited
Arcane was one of the best shows I watch during that year 😭🧡
7:46 about holding the object: every objectif in Arcane is imperfect, in the sense that it is hand drawn. The only thing made to be perfect, a perfect circle made via computer, is the stabilized hex ball. This is symbolic in its own way, as the show resolves around the hex ball, which itself symbolises absolute power.
Schnee makes amazing videos, and I highly recommend watching more
Sanest league player
i like to propose an addition to the cup theorem. to some degree you can add things to the cup without overfilling it like whipped cream. just details that add a layer of extra care to those who want it but can be missed without hindering the strength of the story. but if you ´get´ the whipped cream you can enjoy what's in the cup in a whole different way adding extra layer to it. also known as detalle de fina coquetería
Personally, best example of the 'whipped cream' for me, is the touches the animators adds that even the writing team didn't ask them for, but added to the stort and its depth overall. Like Jinx's drawings on Silco's ashtray or Vi's reaction to seeing Caitlyn talk to the girl in the brothel, all added by the animation team on their own but adds more depth to the overall story.
@CrimsonEclipse18 exactly that. Full disclosure i haven't seen arcane (i know mea culpa) but that kind of detail adds up is small things that you don't necessarily consciously notice but it adds up to make you feel like you saw something incredible. An example is the great transitions in puss in boots the last wish. Or the wolf appearing all movie hidden. That kind of detail helps to create that sentiment people had with that movie the "this didn't need to this hard" no they didn't, they wanted to and passion is infectious
@@Mmoraltz I hope you have seen arcane now ;)
@d40s0n i have not but thank you, life's been hard
@@Mmoraltz id reccomend just sitting down one day and doing it finally, you wont regret it
his dedication to Arcane is what I expect from Nux for Velma
And this is EXACTLY why Arcane is my favourite show of all time. It's just a masterpiece. It really warms my heart to see other people so passionate about what I love :)
I’ve watched some of his videos and he is really good at picking apart this show and showing you why it works and inside the characters head. Great content.
I've gone to watch arcane more than once, but as soon as i start the first episode, i literally remember the entire thing instantly. and dont need to rewatch it because it's burned in my brain.
80 videos and they are all 100% worth watching . They go in depth about character design and story telling
Im so glad Nux watched this video, ive been obsessed with Schnee"s break downs of Arcane since i first discovered him. Its taught me more about storybuilding then any english class ive ever taken.
schnee really makes best arcane analysis videos
Arcane really is a good show with a lot of attention to detail.
To say that the deconstruction of this Rubik's cube of an onion that is Arcane is phenomenal, would be like saying that it would be nice to have water every once in a while. I pride myself in not being an idiot but after watching this breakdown brought my appreciation of the series to a level I never would have thought possible. Thank you for your take on this and I apologize for the dissertation.
First of all, I gotta say that that was one of the best put together videos I've ever watched. Every scene and word just presents so much information without it being obscure or overwhelming and it also has a good mix of comedy put into ot.
I would like to note tho, that there is one interesting parallel, or even theme, that he did not cover. That being of history repeating itself. Heimerdinger pushed away So ged because of their clash of ideals, the same is done by Jayce and Victor. One did it intentionally, while the other not. The result is the same, but in a contrast. Jayce wanted to fight, while Victor would not want to see his people hurt. Heimerdinger and Singed is that relationship but upside down. The best part is, that in the end, both Victor and Jayce come to realise one thing ... For Victor it is that he will always be of Zaun and so he will be different and needs to join the fight for his people. Jayce on the other hand, comes to understand Heimerdinger's fear of magic and power. He decides he would choose peace, but it is too late. Just how he pushed away his mentor for the ideals he would come to regret and side with the ones he dismissed, he planted the seeds for more problems and naively thought he could fix it all. (i hope that made sense as the final bits of my argument kinda went off into a tangent 😂)
Schnee content is a banger, Not just Arcane stuff, but also, say LOTR.
Gotta love the fangirling nux
Can we get a video on lackadaisy? It’s so good and there is so much love put into the making of it. there is so much to talk about it deserves half an hour long video at least
That is why the directors always emphasizes that the theme of arcane is duality.
I been subscribed to schnee for a long while now and what's crazy is that not only has he made like 80 arcane videos but that he has managed to do so without any of them being stale or boring. Dudes analysis of arcane really made me appreciate the show so much more
omg i love watching him just slowly become a schnee fan in this
We love when a Nux video gets uploaded, and such a good dive into such a beautiful world
This is all thanks to the groundwork laid over a decade plus by the League lore teams. The comics are almost all at the same caliber as Arcane and can be enjoyed standalone in the same way as Arcane. My favorite of the ones I've read so far is the Jhin comic.
Damn.. the first truly intelligent video of Nux I’ve seen in 2 years.. people e things do change.
I mean it, I’m not being haughty, I liked Nux years ago cuz he was insane and helped me laugh e relax, then he got famous and started dishing out tons of crap for content content content and just not my cup of tea found vids shallow, noisy e annoying.
Again years have passed and cool, his work showing some substance again…
Just reminds me that we all have facets, it’s important to remember that we all grow and mature and have opportunities to show different aspects of ourselves..
I won’t be surprised if I am not into most his content anymore but definitely there’s always things I can still learn from.
as a writer, I looove schnees videos and the best about arcane: knowing how it works doesnt take the magic away
and i got to say, I love your avatar! (that the right word? I'm not well versed with those thermes, sorry) the design is so cool and cute. i instantly felt the urge to draw fanart ngl XD
Watching this live prompted me to watch the series. Much thanks
This is why Arcane is so appreciated, especially as characters are the first thing people see before the story they have to tell. Doing an orbit around the idea of tropes and shooting off far beyond it to make the character so much better. So instead of Vi just being the buff-swol female solving problems with brute force or Jayce just being the rich jock himbo solving things with science and money to fill in character tropes and subvert the type for the sole sake of sending a message, you see how they are getting built up through their experiences (and taking us along with them) to be their own while having secondary effects on others and their experiences.
Animation to tell a story is very complicated in itself for monetary, expertise and manpower reasons, but there is an infinite playground artists have yet to explore and I'm so happy something like Arcane can be used as the best example of recent times. It's something people have been wanting over popular stereotype garbage churned out in animated media today, to hurry teams with deadlines so companies don't spend too much and max profits, to favor those with money over the originality, impact and depth of stories, just to meet quotas. It's something that we need more in animation, and just storytelling in serialised media as a whole.
Arcane has become almost overlooked at this point. But shall i say it? Arcane > edgerunners.
Yes you can!!! :)
Lol yeah cause edgerunners is dogshit and Arcane is fantastic
Nooooo! I actually do like edgerunners more
@@ZMonkey03 Edgerunners have to be that anime show that broke all the rules! But Arcane feels larger than life and the animation's way more texturized and writing wise, Arcane destroyed Edgerunners. To me now, everyone may have different opinions!
Arcane doesn't have a cup... it has an entire BAR
Arcane production be like: Hollup, I think we should cook in the kitchen.
Apart from being a masterpiece, there's sooo many easter eggs in Arcane which is a treat for lore nerds or even casual League players.
i.e. Krugs, Blood moon mask (hinting at an alt universe/timelines)
It's called weaving a story, and we don't get such a polished project very often. Lightning in the bottle
Arcane has one central theme: Duality.
Everything is just one dimension or another of it.
I am gonna need 6 eyes to protect my brain from frying while I try to understand the peak that is Arcane
"how's the cup not breaking?" they didn't fill a cup, they filled a barrel
Yeah I agree the details in that video were top notch. Schnee did a excellent job 👏
Yoooo amazing to have you back from vacay Nux ^^
Arcane instead of filling a normal cup filled a megapint
I love Arcane. Let's take Sky, some will say she didn't have enough screen time, was a fridged character or not a character at all but a plot device. I disagree, they subtly made her her own character with her own motivations. Her narrative purpose may have been to die to show Viktor he was going too far but we got to see through the flashback she had always been interested in Viktor since childhood. Sky wasn't just a lab assistant crushing on Victor, she also came up from the depths of the undercity to become a scientist and had been working on her own research. Knowing this makes us wish she had more screen time to explore her as a character but she was a real character
A YEAR ?!!! I still haven't watched it yet. So it's one year in my SD card.
It's a thing i noticed kinda for the first time in a film called the gods must be crazy but there it is less efficient and less prominent
Im so happy to see you react to his stuff because its great. You should do his video on Ekko next because that ending just hits so hard
The amount of joy in my heart when I saw the subject of this video x3. Schnee is an incredible analyst and I'm happy to see another incredible analyst reacting to his stuff x3c (yeah I didn't forget the super great Sans and Bill Cipher videos hehe). Also really appreciated the addition to the fish hooks analogy, how if 29 out of 30 subjects are uninteresting, it could ruin a story, but Arcane avoids this by connecting them all so that finding one interesting naturally extends to the rest. Aaaaaahhh thanks for making this, man!
The funny part is: piltover isn't league of legends best region lore wise
It's in fact the least region with lore (if you don't count ixtal but that place is us new)
i've been watching schnee for SO LONG it feels lol great to see you reacting to his videos. all of his analyses are top notch
Ngl when I first watched Arcane I expected a “uhh you go girl” show but I got well~ ARCANE
Arcane is the narrative equivalent of graphene.
Arcane is easily one of the most artistically interesting, uniquely made stories, unique ways of story telling, and most fascinatingly contradicting, yet similar, complex character writing of any movie or show ever made in the history of man-kind. There... I said it!
The man's says Stage two but the Screen says Gear Second! Lol hell yeah
Where did it go wrong was my question watching it and i figured it out it started all with ekko and the fact alone that noone talked about this Shows how great this Series is. The consens is well Ekko is the reason for all. Connect the dots yourself :)
And the fact that it is the timemanipulating character is so open for Theorie crafting.
the secret: quality so deep it created event horizon, a singularity.
SO MANY OF THIS GUYS VIDEOS ARE GOOOOOOD
05:33 I like the comparisons he made but,
Quick correction
Singed and Viktor are not Both from Zaun -- one leaves one stay
its actually like this:
Both scientists, Singed From Piltover leavs to Zaun, Viktor from Zaun leaves to Piltover
----I read the comics, and Singed is hella terifying, he was a Piltovan Doctor, but at night he goes to Zaun to try his haunting Ideas on Humans---
You must watch every one of his videos. They are amazing.
Season 2 will probably be even better.
What about Marcus the corrup sheriff? He also has a daughter. So many daughters
Georgia Dow Arcane psychological analysis is hella good too
In the hook analogy, we are all Patrick
Wow, I wasn’t ready. What a fantastic job
The best part is the random jinx knit thing being placed in random locations (beach chair is the best one)
I not long finished Better Call Saul and Arcane is still the best writing I have ever seen.
3:14
It was a tough decision.
Arcane will be a classic in the future
It shows what can be done with time, budget, and a project being creator led (not corporate led).
Schnee is great! I love his videos. Would love to see you react to his video on how Arcane writes women!
I think you should add a link to his channel in the description.
Its like poetry it rhymes!
hey that’s like my class, low coupling and high cohesion is good design
Your editor is my favorite character... don't think too hard about that.
02:45 Bro Probably did not watch One Piece XD
'Silco the most underate-'
On WHAT planet
Silco is textbook internet evil sexy man
I realy hope that riot is making another show about another region after arcane 2 so ppl who dont know much about the league universe get too enjoy it too
still waiting for season two
jinx is the powder keg.
MY BRAIN! This is insane
I rarely comment on youtube but I'll say it.
I have much respect for your tastes and have picked up more than one show based off of your tier lists.
You recommending arcane put a (biased) bad taste in my mouth BUT, since you also held bojack (one of the best animations ever made) in high regard I decided to give arcane a shot.
I went in decided to hate it, sat with a frown and my arms crossed through the first two episodes. Then episode 3 hit. Today I've never rewatched a show more than arcane, I consider it my top 5 visual media ever made (animation or not) and I would just like to give you a heartfelt "thank you" for introducing me to it.
I'm itching to keep writing a full disclosure on why the show is amazing but what's the fucking point, we all know why.
As a father of two daughters. And one who appreciates freedom and independence… how stereotypical ‘villain’ is Silco. Even Vander was doing the same thing.
Oda really should have watched this video.
You know it's insane. The fact that enemy is such a banger and it's only two chords!!!!
Disney needs to sit down and take notes.
Bro has more videos on arcane then matpat has on fnaf
I watched it from start to finish and it’s sad how Jinx and VI are going to see each other when season 2 starts.😢 Overall I love it.
And now we lose you to his channel as you spend the next 10+ hours watching every last one. 😂
I think u would realy enjoy the schnee How Acane writes women video too.
