Arcane: Who Is Juliette, the Dedication in Episode 7 of Season 2?

If you’ve watched Episode 7 of Arcane Season 2, you may have noticed the mysterious message at the end: “For Juliette with love.” Naturally, this raises the question—who is Juliette? Unfortunately, no official explanation has been provided so far. The name's appearance before the credits has sparked various speculations within the community.

Here are some theories about Juliette’s identity:

Juliette Dominguez, an Artist at Fortiche

Some fans suggest that Juliette could be Juliette Dominguez, an animator who contributed to Season 1 of Arcane. Her name is indeed listed in the credits of the first season, and her last social media post dates back to 2021. However, this theory remains unconfirmed, as her LinkedIn profile still indicates she works for Fortiche.

A Tribute to a Personal Loss

Another theory posits that this dedication might be a heartfelt tribute to someone close to the Arcane team—a colleague, a friend, or a loved one who passed away. Dedicatory messages like these often honor individuals who had a profound impact on the team or project.

A Symbolic or Metaphorical Figure

Others believe Juliette could be a symbolic or metaphorical reference, honoring someone whose influence shaped the series creatively or emotionally. This might be a way to acknowledge a crucial contributor, either behind the scenes or during the creative process.

In many series, such dedications often recognize significant contributors to the project or pay homage to loved ones who’ve passed away. Juliette might be a deeply personal figure for one of the creators or someone within the animation industry whose memory lives on through this tribute.

For now, Riot Games and Fortiche have not shared any official details about this message. However, it stands as a discreet yet poignant homage to someone whose impact on Arcane was clearly meaningful.
