Vi and Caitlyn’s relationship in the second season of “Arcane” was marked by emotional fluctuations, but ultimately ended with an intimate reunion in the finale.
However, Chinese users, as revealed in videos published on social networks, saw an alternative ending where Vi and Caitlyn simply keep their distance and talk.

The Chinese government has long banned the depiction of LGBTQ+ relationships in movies and series, so viewers there can only watch original versions of shows via VPN.
“I assume they changed all the scenes of this couple. If you’re going to change the creators’ vision, why even broadcast the series?” — wrote one commentator.
Meanwhile, the series co-creator Christian Linke previously explained that one of the brightest scenes of lesbian intimacy between characters was even longer, and had to be shortened to avoid an “adult age rating”.
Currently, both seasons of “Arcane” are streaming on Netflix — with Ukrainian dubbing and uncensored.
