#Arcane S1 and AtLA are 9.5/10

[maximusmaximillian]

From what I've observed

Arcane S1 = ATLA: universally acclaimed; everyone loved the characters, the story, depiction of certain topics, thematic cohesion, animation style, etc; argue that it deserves a spot in the hall of fame of all media ever created; a masterclass of storytelling, worldbuilding, and characterization.

Arcane S2 = TLOK: very divisive; some people think it's on the same level as the original; others think it's garbage that must be forgotten forever; some people think that it falls short of the original and has some major flaws but still think it stands on its own two feet as a good piece of media; some are just here for the sapphics.

#its arcane…. not everything will be happy fr but gah my heart hurts

#ive also allowed replies for now in all gifsets and posts but piss me off and i will block you and close it again

#i havent rlly processed everything bc ive been making gifs

#but yeah im in fuckin shambles idk what to feel honestly

#it rlly hurts to see ppl totally shit on the show you love but i suppose its a sign not to look at social media in general

#criticisms are fine but some of them take it a bit too far

#the first season was so good (and most ppl watched it with 0 expectations in mind) that the second season had too much to live up to

#for what it's worth i still very much enjoyed it even with a few gripes

#my grade is like 9.5/10 for s2 while s1 gets like a 11/10 haha

#i have a feeling that when i rewatch the show i’ll appreciate it more since im less emotional haha the score will prolly go higher

#thank you to everyone who was a part of this show <3

#anyways its 2am goodnight my goal for the next coming days is a gifset or two a day

#thank you everyone ily <3

Me who has already gone through ATLA and TLOK fandom hell: First time?

God, I'm (yet again) exhausted. What a show. I will say, flaws and all, it's still one of the best animated series I've watched. Ever. No, I don't think it deserves the vitriol it's getting on social media.

I have a LOT of emotions right now. I don't think I'm even thinking straight after watching through everything once. It definitely needs to be re-watched multiple times. No, I'm not offering any kind of insights or anything like that. I think I'm just too emotional seeing my favorite show end.

I really wanna thank the writers, directors, artists, animators, producers, and everyone else who worked on this show for this work of art. It was beautiful, and it's why I love making gifs of this show.

And just because this show has ended, doesn't mean I'll stop making things. There's two whole seasons to work with now. I hope I can have enough free time to post regularly. I still need to make some 8k wallpapers and a ton of gifs haha.

I'll take a break and sleep for now. I'll see what I can make when I wake up tomorrow. I have so many things I want to do, but I also feel like crap and I too, have a life LMAO.

Oh, and I'm still looking forward to the next stories that they tell us! Runeterra truly has amazing lore. Excited to see what's next!

Thank you for all the likes, reblogs, and support you guys give to my lil sideblog! I appreciate you guys so much <3
