Arcane (2021-2024)
Jinx is absolutely detestable and ruins the experience
The art direction is stunning, with CGI that looks hand-drawn. The pacing, however, is uneven, the subplots drift apart until they become a tangle in the second season, and Jinx, with her schizophrenic characterisation, is the character I hate most. It bored me deeply, even on a second viewing.
Dark (2017)
An incomprehensible time loop
Every disappearance has a reason and every detail, through the butterfly effect, can lead to catastrophe; from the second season the plots become so tangled that I had to print a timeline to follow them. The writers' extraordinary ability to close every loop makes it a beautiful, gripping series, but one that demands strong reasoning skills.
