Arcane is one of the best Netflix shows out there, but it’s coming to an end with season 2. Sure, you might be wondering why it’s ending so quickly – but as showrunner and co-creator Christian Linke explained, it is to prevent the show from being delayed. it is welcome.

“We always had a specific story in mind,” he told CinemaBlend. “Look, you could have stretched it, I’m sure. But for us it was always like we started with this in mind. I think as creatives there’s a personal angle to it too. We’ve all seen the TV shows seen., where the writers are clearly running out of juice. How inspired can you stay about the same, for how long? It’s been nine years for us, with these characters we had in mind.”
