Arcane fans demand Caitlyn & Vi’s extended cut be released in viral petition

by

As a dedicated Arcane fan who has been following the series since its inception, I find myself deeply moved by the ongoing petition to release the extended cut of Caitlyn and Vi’s love scene. Having grown up with these characters, their relationship has become more than just pixels on a screen – it’s a testament to resilience, understanding, and the power of love amidst chaos.

Enthusiasts of the game “Arcane” are uniting through signing a petition, aiming to get the expanded version of Caitlyn and Vi released.

In Season 2 of Arcane, we find the narrative resuming from the point where it ended in the first season – following the consequences of Jinx unleashing a rocket attack on Piltover’s city hall.

As a dedicated gamer, I can’t help but express my feelings about the acclaimed second season of our beloved game series. The animation, music sequences, and intricate details have been nothing short of breathtaking. However, there’s one aspect that left me and many other fans feeling a tad melancholic – the truncated love scene between Caitlyn and Vi. Originally, it was intended to be more extensive, but unfortunately, it got cut short.

It was necessary for this specific scene to be toned down to prevent an R-rating, according to creator Christian Linke. As a result, fans of Caitlyn and Vi haven’t been quiet about the news, with a petition for the release of an uncut version gaining popularity online.

Arcane fans want to see the extended version of this “pivotal moment”

The petition was initiated on November 26, 2024, through Change.org. As a screenshot from a post on X revealed earlier, it had gathered around 2,000 signatures; however, as of today, the count has skyrocketed to nearly 14,000.

In the petition, it is stated that, as lovers of Arcane, we were greatly excited to witness the heartwarming relationship between Caitlyn and Vi unfold on screen. However, the scene was later altered to be “trimmed back,” resulting in a more condensed and toned-down version.

Many enthusiasts have expressed a mix of intense curiosity and disillusionment, learning that an “extended version” is presumably kept within the film studios.

Due to this development, they have politely requested that Netflix and Riot Games make available an extended cut of “this crucial scene” for fans who deeply appreciate these characters and their storyline.

In Season 2, the bond between Caitlyn and Vi isn’t without its bumps. They’ve shared moments of affection, quarrels, reconciliations, and even temporary alliances. Their dynamic culminated in a rather passionate scene in Episode 8, where they expressed their feelings physically.

Regardless of the catastrophic events they experienced, their relationship remains intact at the story’s end. Fans, however, remain unsatisfied and eager for additional scenes showcasing their romantic interactions.
