Something I noticed about Arcane’s “villains” *spoilers*
This is a bit scattered in my brain so bear with me here…
I feel like Arcane does a really good good at balancing characters. There are somewhat good characters and somewhat bad characters.
Now I know this might be weird to think, but I don’t think that there are really “good guys” and “bad guys” in Arcane.
If you think about the villains vs the heroes in Arcane you might think “Silco and Vi” but both of those characters have parts that make them evil and parts good.
Vi is stubborn and has a hard time dealing with emotions. Which are “villain” like traits.
Silco has compassion and is very smart and persuasive. Which can be “hero” traits.
But those are just two examples. In every. Single. Character. You can see that there is a really good balance of good and evil.
Like Marcus. He is a side character but Riot still put in a lot of effort to make his character balanced. He does everything that Silco wants, which is all bad things. BUT he saved VI’s life, a girl he had basically never met before.
He saved her life by arresting her instead of letting her go to Powder where Silco would have killed her. (Last few minutes of the third episode)
Arcane is just too good!!!! I LOVE THE BALANCE
Anyway, that’s all! Thanks for reading!
