Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Progressive

Primary

Arcane's dominant themes align with left-leaning values by centering on the systemic oppression and exploitation of the undercity (Zaun) by the opulent city (Piltover), highlighting class inequality and the struggle for autonomy and justice for a marginalized group.

Arcane presents a visibly diverse cast of characters, with women and people of color in central and powerful roles, contributing to a rich and varied world. The narrative delves into themes of class struggle and societal inequality, critiquing power structures and individual choices rather than explicitly portraying traditional identities negatively.

Secondary

Arcane features a prominent and positively depicted romantic relationship between Vi and Caitlyn. Their bond is portrayed with depth, respect, and serves as a significant emotional anchor for both characters, facing no internal prejudice within the narrative. The show normalizes queer love, presenting it as a natural and affirming part of its rich world.

The show features Vi, a highly capable brawler, who consistently engages in and wins direct physical fights against multiple male opponents using hand-to-hand combat and martial arts-like techniques across various scenes.

Arcane does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative. The series focuses on other aspects of identity, class, and relationships, thus rendering the portrayal of transsexual identity as N/A due to its absence.

Arcane adapts characters from the League of Legends universe. All major characters originating from the game maintain their established gender in the show. New characters created for Arcane do not count as gender swaps.

Arcane adapts characters from the 'League of Legends' video game. The show maintains the established visual and racial depictions of its existing characters, and new characters introduced in the series do not constitute race swaps.
