Vi, Jinx, Caitlyn, Mel, Sevika, Grayson, Ambessa, Sky -- every one of Arcane’s masterfully written women can teach so many fundamentals about how gender can express itself in storytelling. Arcane’s women carefully sidestepped and/or neutralized gendered stereotypes and problematic tropes that so often cripple strong women in fiction. From Action Girls to the infamous Manic Pixie Dream Girl to lack of agency, body types, the male gaze and beyond, Arcane navigates around it all efficiently and deftly. The near universal praise for the female representation in Netflix’s animated masterpiece are proof enough that these characters are worthy of careful analysis.
