Longtime fans of Netflix animated series Arcane rejoiced when paramours Caitlyn and Vi got together for their first kiss, followed by their first time hooking up in Season 2. The League of Legends adaptation and fandom had been building up to this moment for years, even the better part of a decade. But apparently, the version viewers got to see was milquetoast compared to the original. When Vi kissed Caitlyn in Episode 8 and reaches down, the camera cuts to nothing.
Showrunner and co-creator Christian Linke confirmed this week that the original scene was much longer and more explicit. But the writers received pushback and were unable to include the scene as it would have raised the show’s age rating to M for mature. Now, Linke weighs in on the possibility of releasing the scene anyway.
