IMHO "Arcane" is one of the worst shows that I've ever seen, and what's curious is that it seems to be intentionally made this way, probably as a weapon in cultural war, to indoctrinate and traumatise by selling nicely wrapped despair.
Antonio Gramsci would be proud to learn that his ideas of cultural warfare were embraced by makers of "Arcane" who promoted profoundly unattractive view on love and friendship by portraying them as unworthy of pursuing...
