The Arcane meme phenomenon exploded following the release of the hit animated series based on League of Legends lore. Known for its breathtaking animation and tragic character arcs, the show provided a goldmine of expressive reaction shots, particularly from the protagonist Jinx and her sister Vi. Common themes include the 'Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss' trope, deep emotional trauma humor, and the stark contrast between the wealthy Piltover and the gritty undercity of Zaun. These memes are widely used across Twitter, TikTok, and Reddit to express everything from genuine sadness over character fates to chaotic energy in everyday situations.
