Arcane co-creator feels Viktor and Jayce's storyline was unresolved 'to a certain degree', but they weren't quite 'given the time' to explore it

Jayce from the Netflix series Arcane, set in League of Legends, stares angrily at a device in a dramatically-lit room.

Arcane's second season is all done, which means an end to the series, too—though there's been a whole heap of winks and nudges that Riot'll be cooking up more seasons of stunning animation with Fortiche in the future. For now, the current debate is whirring around whether the season happened to be 'rushed', or if certain scenes were cut for time.

While I'm of the opinion that Fortiche is the master of storytelling so dense it gets stuck in your teeth, co-creator Christian Linke hints at the idea that there were, indeed, words left unsaid or cut for time. That's as per what he says in Arcane's "Afterglow" series, featuring himself and fellow creator Alex Yee, as well as actors Hailee Steinfeld (Vi), Ella Purnell (Jinx), Reed Shannon (Ekko). Spoilers for Season 2 ahead.
