Awesome. Season 1 was genuinely phenomenal and I've heard really good things about the rest of the manga. Hopefully they maintain the quality of the production for season 2

I'll admit the hype from the season 2 trailer got to me. I've been rewatching Arcane season 1 and it's just as amazing as I remember.

I'm not sure about what the arcane would be linked to. I don't know League lore. About Mel's mom, I think her taking power was setup near the end of Season 1, but it's interesting to consider that it might be a red herring. I think Arcane's world and storytelling are nuanced enough that's it's not just going to be a straightfoward Zaun vs Piltover vs Noxus. There's probably going to be a lot more subtlety in the conflicts that the arcane is going to play a part in.
Oh man, I'm so excited! I really like that they're continuing to keep the fates of the people in the council hidden.
"The Arcane is waking up" is hype. I wonder what that means for the story of S2.
Fern and Stark are technically in the 18-20 age range though. And fairly teenage-y. But I agree it does explore a lot of more "mature" themes.

I'll always recommend Venture Bros. and Futurama. Especially the first 4 seasons.
That's strange. I'd be interested to know how and what you searched for so I can maybe improve how easy it is for people to find [email protected].
I've been watching Lastman and am about halfway through season 1. It's a french animated show directed by Jérémie Périn who also directed Mars Express. I was inspired by watching that film to check out more work by the director. So far it's really fun. They are short 12-13 min episodes with a lot of swag (for lack of a better term). Great direction as expected and genuinely funny too. I think it's an awesome example of how to do lower budget animation that still looks really good.
Please feel free to share it here when you do!
One of my all time favourite animated films! I'm sad I only got around to finally watching it a few years ago.
Thanks for posting @[email protected] but I'm going to remove this as it's a duplicate of this existing post.
Agreed. Porco Rosso is top tier.
I watched Sirocco and the Kingdom of the Winds over the weekend and it's a beautifully made film with stunning art and music. The director was apparently inspired by Miyazaki films and Yellow Submarine and it shows in the fun plot and trippy visuals. Like most great kids films, I'd recommend this to adults as well because of how it deals with themes of family, love, and empathy.
Yeah it's disappointing. I thought the first one was okay but forgettable (as you said), but the second and third just straight up weren't good imo.
It really is. I've bought a few to give out as inexpensive gifts to friends and family that might be interested.
I usually try not to be negative but this just doesn't "feel" like Lord of the Rings. Also showing clips of the LOTR films in the beginning is just weird. The animation looks solid even if I don't think the overly Anime character design works for Tolkien's world.
As a fan of Tolkien it is also kind of funny to me that the focus is on the daughter of one of the coolest characters in the books. A daughter that isn't even named.
Woah that's crazy. Love Death and Robots but for video games. And am I right to think all 15 episodes are by Blur Studio?
I agree Silo was amazing but just fyi, this community is focused on animation and animated media. Thanks
5 episodes into the nw Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles which is a spinoff of last years Mutant Mayhem movie and it's a pretty solid show. I like that it focuses more on the individual brothers separate from the group to help flesh them out a little bit. The 2D animation is pretty solid. I think they managed to replicate a lot of the vibe of the movie's CGI. Keeping the movie's voice cast for the turtles and April was excellent. My gripes are that so far the main plot isn't super engaging and I find the show to just not be as funny as the movie. The music is also just whatever.
