What a difference an Act makes! Jason and Rosie react to episodes 4, 5, and 6 of Arcane Season 2, and it feels like every critique we had for the previous three episodes have been directly addressed this time around. We get a better view of the everyday citizens of Zaun, explore the growing relationship between Vi and Jinx, and get a newly introduced VERY important character! Plus, Aaron steps in to share his favorite updated hairstyles.
