Arcane Parallels

This post exists to get some of my thoughts on Arcane out of my head and into the world. After finishing Arcane I couldn’t stop thinking about all the awesome parallels they managed to fit into it. At first I thought I would be able to hold the complete list of parallels in my head, but I eventually ran out of space. Never before have I seen a show contain so many interesting and powerful parallels that I couldn’t contain them all in my head at one time. This intrigued me so much that I decided to document all of the parallels I could think of as well as some of the ones that were pointed out to me by others.

However, as I was compiling the list, though it was fun at the start, it became tedious. Therefore I have decided to simply post what I have and leave it at that.

I organized the list by character relationships and by character. If you are interested in deeper, more thural analysis that covers the significance of some of these parallelsI recommend Schnee’s YouTube channel.
