a rant about the arcane fandom lately

the arcane fandom really icks me this season. i mean yeah the show isnt perfect and it has a lot of flaws thus criticizing it is fine. but it gets to a point that i feel some of yall werent even paying attention to the show at all.

one thing that i have noticed in this season is that it definitely contains more visual storytelling compared to season 1 or characters' arcs and development rely on small details and dialogues which can be easily overlooked. some parts of the fandom needs to be spelled out every single characters' arcs into dialogues or they would misinterpret everything dramatically.

about caitlyn, you can dislike her all you want but if i hear another "it is bad writing that she turned 180 degrees because vi said cupcake" or "she didnt receive ANY consequences of her actions", i would riot. not only did she question ambessa's plan for being violent in ep 4 but also have said that her actions would haunt her for the rest of her life. the fandom loves to make her into an angel who did no wrong or a full on evil villain which both "interpretations" are plain wrong. (yall can tell i love caitlyn😭😭)

additionally, some part of the fandom's treatment to vi is just mind boggling. from calling her "the real jinx" because she was dead in the utopian universe to saying she is selfish. these two takes has to be one of the dumbest things i have ever heard, and i was shocked to see people actually think that way. it was said multiple times that hextech wasn't invented in this universe, and hextech in the og universe has made the class difference between piltover and zaun more drastic. plus, vi didn't die as vi here but she died as a zaunite kid. it made pilties realize their actions was directly harming the future generations thus the two live peacefully. for the "vi is selfish" thing, i would say it boils down to the fandom's inability to see the perspective of each individual characters but instead it chooses to only see from the viewer's point of view. ngl if you hates vi, i will automatically assume you to have watched the show with your eyes closed.

there is more but i am too tired to write
