Since 2021, fans have been waiting for the next season of arcane, and now, as part of the Netflix schedule 2024it’s finally here! The season continues the story of Jinx, Vi and everyone else in their twisted world, but we don’t get to see it until the final season. While this was a shock for fans, there’s still a lot to look forward to and I had the opportunity to ask showrunner and co-creator Christian Linke what he’s planning to do next in the world Arcane.

Arcane is undoubtedly one of the The best series to watch on Netflix, and now, with the release of season two, it’s only going to climb back up the charts. However, that is Creator of Arcane made the difficult decision ending the series after just two seasons to tell a complete story and try not to drag it out.

However, Linke even said about the series: X Keep in mind that although this story is coming to an end, there are still more characters in the world to follow League of Legends. When I spoke to Linke before Arcane When the second season premiered, I asked what they would do next after the series ended and if there were any characters from… Arcane They wanted to explore more. They said that’s part of what they want to do. However, there were also “a bunch” of other characters Lol You could research it and, frankly, have to start all over again:

There are definitely some characters whose story we want to continue after Arcane. That’s part of what we want to do. But there are a lot of others too. I mean, we now have over 160 characters in our IP. There’s a lot of it that we’re very excited about, different regions, different storylines that we want to explore… To be honest, it’s like rebooting Arcane all over again. It’s just like we started with nothing. They say, “What should we do? Time to find out. Let’s find out.” We have to trust our gut. That’s what we did with Arcane.

When Arcane was released back in 2021, the show became huge for so many reasons, among others the well-written Jinx and Vi and her tragic sister story and the other stories we followed. It’s almost hard to imagine us falling in love with any characters other than these when we’ve developed such a close relationship with them over the last three years.

Nevertheless, the Left is right when he says that the world of Lol is ridiculously huge. You could throw a dart at a board and each time get a new character with a new story that could serve as the backdrop for a new show. Even if we can’t follow the characters we know and love Arcane I can definitely imagine loving new characters in a new series.

However, don’t expect this new series to come out anytime soon. I jokingly told Linke that any new series would take another “decade” to come out, just like the first season of Arcane. And he honestly agreed, chuckling, but saying that’s just how animation is and that it takes time to make these shows a reality:

I know. That’s exactly what’s special about animations. This doesn’t happen quickly. Whatever you’re thinking, you’re wondering, “Will it take three to five years to finish?”

Animated shows have been known to release seasons much later because they take so long to create. There are so many examples – from the long wait in between Invincible Seasons 1 and 2, for creative series Hazbin Hotel Even some of the best anime out there takes years to finally premiere on Amazon Prime. Fans can sometimes wait years. Damn, between seasons 1 and 2 of Attack on Titan, The spectators had to wait five Years. My goodness.

Either way, as someone who does love the world of Arcane But I’m completely open to whatever story Linke and his co-creator Alex Yee want to tell next. I have to wait and see. I think in the meantime I’ll do it Watch other shows Arcane to hold me tight.

Arcane Season 2 will release acts with three episodes on November 9th, 16th and 23rd. With a Netflix subscriptionyou can watch all the episodes to see how Vi and Jinx’s story really ends.
