Bahubali Eternal War: international hype and debates Post 2 says Bahubali Eternal War is primed to go international, with animation that evokes Arcane but is produced by Fortiche rather than the studio behind Arcane ^[2]. - Bahubali Eternal War going international level for sure ^[2] - Animation by Fortiche is praised; not Arcane but Arcane-level ^[2] - Prabhas as MC is a big move; some say it fuels hype, others worry about canon and Indian identity ^[2] - Endhira discussions note some claim nothing truly Indian about it beyond money/IP ^[2]
