    How have people liked the first 3 episodes? I thought it was good overall, a bit too much background songs for my tastes but nothing too serious.

    Also, the scene wehre Jinx was ambushed with gas was not that believable given how long she lasted in there.

      Jinx is heavily shimmered up. That’s probably as good of an explanation as anything for why she resisted for so long.

      Honestly the music sections are the best for me because that’s what this studio is know for: making videoclips. It’s when the animation truly shines, so I’m loving that they are leaning heavily into it.

      So far it’s been good, I didn’t expect Viktor plot to go that way but everything else has been somewhat predictable (not in a bad way). Looking forward for the next batch of episodes.

      You telling me the opening montage about the power vacuum in episode 2 wasn’t cool? Because it was pretty goddamn cool :o

      I liked most everything else but all the Vi/Caitlyn romance bits felt really stilted. Wish they’d have kept it shorter and more subtle like in season 1.

        I liked most of them, including that one. I just feel like it was a lot of them, you know? I’m not sure if I’m in the minority with this opinion.
