YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND RUBY

I CAN TURN INTO A BIRD RUBY

I CAN TURN INTO A BIRD

Aren't these posters just taken from some random artists on deviant art? I doubt RT wants to spend the time and money changing the model, beyond winter get-up.

>Be giant shitty kitty guy.
>see new design
>genuinely indescribable feeling in my chest.
All the other girls are just a simple "wow that looks great" but I can't begin to describe how I feel about this.

Did you really need to make a new thread?

She's a girl. Girls cut their hair to prove character development. Also, she realized she was gay.

>Qrow can turn into a bird at will
>treats this like a bad thing
>never explains why
Honestly, Miles and Kerry should stick to Camp Camp. They are clearly better at writing comedies than lore-heavy action stuff.

Kerry doesn't write for Camp Camp. It's written by Miles and Jordan and I'll bet one hundred dollars that Jordan does the heavy lifting. Because RWBY is rarely funny.

Qrow never treated it as a bad thing that was Raven trying to manipulate Yang.

inb4 we learn oz actually did it as a punishment for them failing on a crtiual mission agaisnt salem's forces

>a punishment
How is having the ability to turn into a bird and fly and shit a punishment?

you dont like zippers?

I don't understand the appeal.

That's the bi haircut

Stop.

This is one of the new writers for RWBY.

All I have to say to that is so? I can't even say that the proof will be in the pudding. Because RWBY is beyond repair. They could hire an armless communist and it wouldn't make a difference.

are you saying shes going to ruin already ruined series?

Attached: Screen Shot 2019-07-05 at 8.49.27 PM.png (1796x1448, 1.51M)

That's the least of the shows problems.
There was that open letter that detailed the shit they pulled throughout the recent stuff for RWBY.
Also Glynda's voice actor got fired for confirming it hence why she was never in anything past volume 3.
The writing was already fucked to high hell, now the issue comes from the music and "art".

And now their only fans will abandon them. Burnie might be the only person in entertainment who will actually learn from this.

Also.
The animators are working one hundred hour work weeks for very little pay and are, rumoured, to be replaced often.
The original voice actor for Mercury was also fired for confirming the letter to be true.
Vic Migoganoganog was also fired.
Heck, RT just likes firing people.

To be fair Vic got fired from pretty much everything that wasn't tied down via a contract.
Hell League of Legends is already replacing all the voice work he did. The only other time they did that was for Lux and even then her's was with a visual update if I remember right. He is just getting his lines removed.

Slight update, the Inside Gaming guys might be on a shitlist soon cause they pointed out the accusations too.

THEY CUT HER HAIR, THOSE BASTARDS!

Ouch. I'd say that I feel bad. But, even if he didn't do what he's been accused of, Vic is notorious for being hard to work with.

Now she looks just as bad outside as she is on the insiiiiide!

Are you talking about Shane's letter? You gotta take that with a grain of salt. Shane was mentally ill. He almost literally worshipped Monty as a god. He was obsessed with wanting to stick everything to Monty's vision no matter how bad it was. He was given multiple chances but eventually the others knew they had to fire him.

Glynda's VA was fired for calling a woman at RT a whore and that she got only got her position because she was sleeping with one of the bosses.

Mercury's old VA left because he wanted to continue his show but RT didn't.

>Glynda's VA was fired for calling a woman at RT a whore and that she got only got her position because she was sleeping with one of the bosses.
And made these claims while piss drunk.

Shane was mentally ill. That doesn't automatically mean that everything he said was fantasy. This is what RT's most ardent defenders will push in order to sweep things under the rug.

Horseshit. Qrow felt like a freak because of the bird thing and actively kept it a secret, only made worse due to his semblance.

I'm just saying when someone writes dozens of pages while being angry, depressed, sad, etc, they tend to be biased. I'm not saying it's all bullshit what he wrote. But it's wrong to say everything he wrote was 100% true.

They could have fixed that plot if turning into a bird was his semblance and bad luck was a result of ozpin

She seems fine to me

Attached: 1543908441377.jpg (1500x1500, 395K)

I never said that what he said was 100% true. Just that many use his illness to claim that what he said was 100% false. His illness is used as an underhanded way to change the optics of the conversation. A lot of what has happened since does back-up some of his claims. RT doesn't value its workers and treats them as disposable. Most companies won't build this kind of reputation. Yet, RT has managed it.

What?

>Revealed that RT treats its animators and contractors like shit
>Everyone gets pissed
>One guy does a two paragraph apology post on their site
>All is forgiven
You can't make this shit up.

Historically, Americans has always sided with the big corporations rather than the exploited workers and when the workers actually tried to do something, the police and the FBI get rid of them under accusations of being anti-American

And historically speaking artists in communist countries got gulag'd or censored to a quite frankly ridiculous degree.

Socialism never took root in America because people would rather be alive than taken out back and shot like a dog for not towing the party line.

>Hell League of Legends is already replacing all the voice work he did.
What?

I'd absolutely believe 100% of what Shane wrote is true but what Shane wrote basically amounted to he thought the creative ownership/control of the series should belong to Monty's girlfriend and Rooster Teeth did not. The company's stance isn't weird, if anything his insistance on it seems unusual. I have to assume whatever contracts were in place gave then the legal ownership over RWBY, maybe it's not great but it's not unexpected.

I miss Tex.

Hopefully made her less annoying

Australians are probably seething at that one tweet in particular.

what the fuck. all of the what the fuck

he gave them a cloaca

Why do people that always talk about how bad white people are white people? Seriously, where did this self-hatred for themselves came from?

he kept it a secret because its the perfect disuse and he was litterly Oz's spy, Raven used the info to spite Oz showing she had become bitter over something she and her brother chose

Qrow was mad because despite being a bad luck charm Oz accepted him and had him helping people which he thought was a lie when Ozs' past and lack of plan was revealed ... kinda like The wizard of oz the scarecrow was the fool

Weiss' would be amazing if she didn't change her hair.

It's not like anyone else can turn into a bird, which just some straight up magic shit

youtube.com/watch?v=K3vYbF3_TAk

My guess would be that they have total opposition to white nationalists. So much so that they don't care about logic.

Know what its from, still wrong

>he kept it a secret because its the perfect disuse and he was litterly Oz's spy
Doesn't really excuse anything. Especially when he got his niece into it.

> Raven used the info to spite Oz
Why would that even fucking matter? She and Qrow still treated it like a curse for whatever fucking stupid reason. Yeah, Raven was trying to manipulate Yang but it was still framed like a legitimate problem.

>Qrow was mad because despite being a bad luck charm Oz accepted him
Right. He's mad because he did fucking everything for Oz, up and to being used a magical guinea pig for him and he was still being told half truths.

This is the same world where children can create clones of themselves and shoot fireballs from swords. To say nothing about the actual fucking hellspawn that want to eat you.

Being able to turn into a bird or any animal is hardly anything that special.

why do people so adamantly defend this show's absolute shitfest of a plot and characters and lore as if it's anything deep yet when you bring up the piss poor animation, lack of quality control, or awful voice acting they defend it as "fun" and "mindless entertainment"?

Same reason why people defend Teen Titians Go. They know the critics and detractors are right. But they've invested too much of their own identity to be able to live and let live. Once people tie their identity to something, they'll defend it like their own sense of pride is on the line.

Jaune should have been a silver eyed warrior and Ruby should have been a Maiden

Can we get Woolie and Pat to cameo VA in RWBY since they got openings?

Quite better what we have today, desu.

Hey now

I enjoy the show and acknowledge it as a total fucking mess. Anyone who treats it as more than some goofy ass anime is delusional.

The tagline on Yea Forums threads used to be "It's okay to like RWBY, it's not okay to tell us it's good." for crying out loud.

Like half the fanbase will laugh at you for calling the show deep. Admittedly, this group spends a lot of its time laughing at the other half of the fanbase, so I guess you've got a point.

They turned her into a bobcat

Meh, let's see it in motion first then I'll say it

They only pushed it back like a week.

Anything in regards to Q & A during the RWBY panel?

This Lolsuit is going to ruin him.

It really isn't. If you watch the show all of RWBY act like Qrow being able to turn into a bird is this shocking thing and he even admits that he didn't tell them about it because of how bad it was supposed to be. You can try to rationalize it, but it was just bad writing..

RT sheep cant comprehend that their beloved internet friends are actually shitty people who mistreat their employees and keep all the money for themselves. Hell a ton of the reviews of the company even said the higher ups would give really half assed apologies and say "were working to fix it" and then nothing would happen. Then that exact thing happens with a slapped together 2 paragraphs that basically glosses over all the accusations and now you cant even mention it on RTs subreddit without getting downvoted into oblivion.
RT has a built in fanbase and they could literally be accused of fucking underaged fans and people would still defend them.

i mean i enjoy it too, otherwise i would have given up on it long ago, just find it crazy people come into these threads and so adamantly defend the writing as if it's genius

With the short skirt, shorts, spikey tomboy hair and fingerles gloves I'm getting some serious Kanbaru Suruga vibes from Ruby.

how do they make yang worse everytime ? i already thought that neck brace was a new low but holy shit..
why does she have a white shirt under that jumpsuit and why does she have that weird asymetrical garter ?
she looks like a whorish plumber

Attached: why.jpg (640x480, 118K)

I'm assuming that the asymmetrical garter is just for concept art to show that the pants are zippable, I assume it'll be zipped up in show.

Stereotypical "female character goes through major development and growth so she cuts her hair short to symbolize it" cliche. Typical.

I'd say she looks better. Then again, I say that because her clothes looked cool in concept but were too damn much for Maya. Looked bad. Who knows how her new aviator clothes will look animated?
As an aside, I like Yang's jacket but really hate that outfit.

Who designed the volume 7 outfits and why do they like belts so much?

Attached: 1548662445955.png (862x1094, 297K)

I don't know, but holy shit every single design of theirs is terrible so far. The older designs may have been anime as fuck, but at least they were cohesive and simple (intentionally, because Monty wanted them easy for cosplayers to make). Now it's just a bunch of shit slapped together with no rhyme or reason. Random scraps of fabric, zippers and belts everywhere, exotic materials and accessories. It's a mess.

You realize Ein Lee, the character designer, has been working on the show since Day 1 and created more of the original character designs than Monty?

I think it's been the same designer from the beginning. She's just going through her zipper and belts phase.
Although it bears noting the original designs seemed to have been based on rough sketches done by Monty which she later fleshed out.

it's true that vol 5/6 character models have fucked up proportions and unnatural armpits, making outfits look worse than their concepts.
I don't believe she'll look good if all they do is change her clothes though. Maya ruined her hair and her boobs, and the shading isn't good enough for those shades of brown

So they're just fixing Gambol Shroud just like that? I figured they'd use the opportunity to give her a less ridiculously complex weapon.

God I miss when Neo was just a sociopathic henchwoman who just enjoyed violence instead of some loyal, sympathetic lover.

She's still a sociopathic henchwoman who enjoys violence, she just now has a semblance of depth

>sociopathic henchwoman who just enjoyed violence
People put way too much stock in that smile she had when was going to stab Yang. It's not like she tortured her. We have a lot more pointing to her loyalty to roman since she seemed to only take orders directly from him

Atlas falls, literally. Though saying that, I also expected that to happen to Amity Arena and it never did

Blake never looked better. I've never got the big deal with her, especially considering she got a harem, but now she finally looks great

That makes sense but Yang is the man of the relationship. She should get a dyke haircut

Cinder finally dies and passes on her maiden powers to someone in team rwby. Neo is captured. Emerald commits sudoku. Merc grieves and opens a boot shop to cope.

Will the address the parallels between Yang/Merc, and Neo/Emerald.

i would agree with you if semblances were established to not change the user's body but ruby can straight up turn into rose petals and split her body

I think that's just a cool and flashy animation effect. Her Semblance is speed, propulsion and flight.

Here's the thing about assholes. They tend not to leave concrete evidence. I'm an asshole. But you won't find evidence of my misdeeds either. Why? Because only idiots are on their worst behaviour around a camera.
Asking for proof of asshole behaviour is a coward's dodge.

qrow straight up says she bursts into rose petals

Does that mean she can become intangible, allowing her to pass through blades, fences, and out of enemy grips?

She does in the Red trailer.

When will Vic finally sue RT and sink the company?

She's Bisexual

she's always one solid mass(except in the vol 4 trailer where they made her split into three but that would just hurt your case even more)
but really all of this is only a problem because rwby is pretty vague with what shit does. it would take like 1 minute to explain what semblances cant do so whenever someone uses magic the audience is actually surprised. Like in the end of volume 3 did anybody NOT think that qrow showed his semblance when he turned to a bird?

why watch rwby when you can watch SYMPHOGEAR

Attached: 1562437435351.webm (1280x720, 2.47M)

symphogear is unironically worse than rwby and that's saying a lot

Agreed. I don't personally like Vic, but when you have people saying that he was openly molesting and raping underage girls in conventions, with literally no evidence to back up it up, not even a filed police report, then I have to side with him that you can't slander his career for crimes no one can prove he did.

Hell, there was even a statement from a convention that had to list on paper that they couldn't find any witnesses claiming Vic molested women openly in front of people, despite thinking there would literally hundreds lining up to confirm if that was true.

Fire Vic because of his unprofessional conduct, Hollywood terminates actors on they weren't acting like professional, or didn't line up with the company's values (Google). Firing him for an accusation as a sexual predator when there's no evidence, just means the accuser is full of it.

RWBY has stopped drawing in new fans, and has stopped doing all the things that made people like it way back in Volume 1.

It can neither maintain its existing fanbase, nor expand to a new one. It will not live long enough to finish the grand story they're planning, at their current pace.

Why are you still here?

That just looks boring

Hey guys... they're up North... you know... in Schnee land. Where it's cold... which is why Weiss gets called "Ice Queen" as a double-meaning name. When it gets cold, you tend to zip up... and... wear cloaks and coats n shit.

RWBY has lost a lot of fans in Japan. They loved season 1, 2 and 3 because it focused on school stuff. They thought volume 3 things got too dark. There are apparently no plans to dub volume 5.
reddit.com/r/RWBY/comments/c9kmhb/whats_happened_with_rwby_in_japan/

Is High School really that big of thing over there? I hear it's a lot like what college is in the States

the high school setting was legitimately the worst thing about the first three seasons. can they really not handle the "darkness" though? i've seen plenty of dark anime that are supposedly popular.

Oh, wow, I was just judging based on the state of the North American community. Didn't even know it was already dead in Japan.

The show's not over, but you can clearly see it won't reach the end. Save yourselves the time, and call it quits now.

who are you responding to

They love cute shenanigans stuffs, like school girls taking on monsters with no real danger. Dark, depressing and serious anime series rarely do well over there. Living in Japan can be depressing, so the fans want uplifting stuff.

I already watch one garbage magical girl weapon show, I don't need to make a habit of it.

Underrated character.

If they're still making new RvB I think Rwby is pretty safe. And if they get desperate enough to appeal to shippers we'll get to see Ruby and Weiss finally lez out.

>If they're still making new RvB
And are you happy with the state of RvB?

Japan has high suicide rates, honor culture, very low birthrates, extremely high expectancy on teens and young adults. A lot of people are becoming shut ins with (hikkimoris) with no friends, no social contacts, and never leave their homes.

>There are apparently no plans to dub volume 5.
Lucky bastards.

Honestly yeah, feels like they finally learned how to balance story and comedy without relying on fucking freelancer drama.

Not saying it's perfect, but the last two seasons is the best it's been in a long time.

That's some good news.

you know i can watch both right fool

are you people fucking retarded

Symphogear is like mixing Saint Seiya with RWBY, therefore a puddle of shit

The Japanese are the definition of wagecucks and I truly pity them.

Surprised it dropped in popularity that hard though, I thought it was supposed to be pretty huge. Didn't they get huge VAs? And fighting game tie-ins? You'd think there'd be enough leftover fans to at least put out subs or something.

>less annoying
>in faunus' jim crow country

I didn't even think about that but there's gonna be nonstop furry racism drama next season isnt there

Hope Blake leaves some of the spotlight for Weiss

i assume because they know how obnoxious white people can get

If people hate something they care

Sounds like Japs just lost all interest

If it stopped being dubbed seasons ago it's a pretty safe assumption to make

It was huge indeed, and they had some top quality VAs. But the japs had no idea about the setting of volume 4 and forward. It's not like the fandom is completely gone, but the producers won't dub and air volume 5 if they think it's not worth it.

That sucks they had a pretty good voice cast

>>Not pictured, but worth listing

>Akio Otsuka (Solid Snake) as Hazel
>Hikaru Midorikawa (Akihiko from Persona 3) as Mercury
>Marina Inoue (Armin from Attack on Titan) as Emerald and Whitley

>Sounds like Japs just lost all interest
where are you getting this info from

I'm surprised, the show seemed pretty obvious about setting up darker plot stuff. I thought the highschool parts were by far the worst of the show, but I guess that comes down to preference.

Anyone know if Japs are getting official subs? Or are they just pulling the plug on the show completely? I don't expect them to air it and I know streaming isn't as big there as here, but I'd be surprised if RT of all groups doesn't have some sort of streaming system set up.

Also how long has WB owned RT? Didn't know about that til this comic tie in announcement.

High school is the last little bit of "carefree innocence" in an average Japanese person's life. After high school, they're expected to cast everything off and become soulless salarymen working 70+ hours a week until they either kill themselves or die of exhaustion. Of course they'd fixate on and reminisce about that time.

Unfortunately, it might not be possible since they have kept very quiet on their reasons for firing him. AFAIK, none of the employees have outright slandered him like Funimation's have. They're disgusting people.

Or maybe you have to see them that way in order to make detractors easier to downplay?

Because said shows that get put out either had:
a) A long time on the making therefore a dedicated fanbase (Berserk, JoJo, Hokuto no Ken, Devilman) and even then they have a hard time to get a proper adaptation (Miura has said that the reason Berserk never had much anime is simply because studios don't see much faith in a franchise like that being profitable; and prior to the anime, JoJo was originally supposed to have all parts in movie form by Studio APPP starting with Phantom Blood but we all know how that turned out)

b) Newer shows with darker stuff often resort to areas where it can attract fanservice (Goblin Slayer, god fuck that show, has some harem anime to it considering there's a bunch of different types of girls wanting the MC's dick)

c) Often at times they're exclusively marketed for their violence (Terra Formars, Attack on Titan)

RWBY's kinda on this gray zone where they can't really find what to sell on it; since V4 and 5 are painfully slow with not a lot going on?

Mature themes? Nope
Violence porn? Nada
Stuff to suggest/lewd/fantasize about the main characters? Definetly a nope given RT's stance on this stuff

The issue is that if they wear winter outfits, they will also wear these indoors, because RT can't waste time making more character models. Jaune always wears his gauntlets, even while making food and eating, because they can't make a model of him where he has no gauntlets.

Last season was the best that RWBY has ever been (and that's saying something); so I am genuinely hoping they can keep up what they've got goin'.

The whole setting doesn't make any sense. Apparently nobody takes goblins seriously and they're regarded as pests and minor enemies that low-level adventurers shouldn't have a hard time with, but at the same time everyone views goblins as a grave menace because of their ruthless horde tactics and the fact that they can literally only procreate by raping human women. It's not even a case of some characters having one or the other view, multiple characters will express both views with absolutely no acknowledgement of the contradiction. Goblin Slayer himself is mocked for his autistic fixation on goblins but the same characters who do this also turn out to deeply respect him for being the only one willing to stand up to the goblin menace.

The series can't make up its mind about whether the world underestimates goblins and GS is the only one smart enough to know how dangerous they are, or whether everyone already knows this and just doesn't do shit about it for whatever reason and just count on GS to do it for them and treat him as a savior even though there's literally nothing stopping them from clearing goblin nests themselves. Somehow GS is the only one who knows how to do this, DESPITE LOW-LEVEL ADVENTURERS REGULARLY GETTING ASSIGNED QUESTS TO DO EXACTLY THIS BECAUSE GOBLINS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE PESTS.

So the entire setting requires everyone to be either retarded for one reason, or retarded for another reason.

its funny that rwby "critics" are trying there hardest to say its the worst its has ever been

the most retarded thing i have seen from it is when those experienced girls in chapter 2 that can take on demons gets hit in the head with a small rock then gets raped and killed what kind of logic is this

Attached: 1544164434072.gif (200x175, 2.44M)

That's what happens when your only goal in a story is to self-insert as a badass edgelord loner who everyone respects and admires for being a badass edgelord loner and also all the girls want to fuck him. The creator never put any thought into it beyond that, which is why the series can't even keep its own internal logic straight.

Nope. That's still volume 3 by far. Vol 6 is an improvement over Vol 5, but that's it.

That and his blatant rape fetish

Volume 6 just eclipses it by what incredible and original ideas it reveals about the world and its characters, how effortlessly it changes genres on a dime, how spectacular its writing is, and what an absolutely fantastic villain it has.

Speaking of which, if Rooster Teeth was ever in any position to make something out of Cinder Fall, now is the time. She is my highest hope this coming volume.

Careful user, you're setting yourself up for some serious disappointment

Attached: Autist.png (800x600, 187K)

No offense, but when you say shit like that, it literally sounds like you got paid for it.
That or you have some massive delusions about RWBY's writing quality.

With RWBY being a hype machine, I imagine it's more a case of that user buying into the hype. Which is what RWBY does. It always sets up for the next season and it only actually ever paid off in season 3. Which is why the second half of season three is the only good part of RWBY.

Volume 6 had them treat the incredibly obvious 'Ozpin doesn't have a plan to beat Salem' concept as some big reveal so all the characters could get angsty. Seriously, did they just think the immortal guy was putting off saving the world for years because he kept getting distracted or what?

People like you are the most unpleasant schmucks on this entire website, honestly. Psychological issue out the ass, to the point that you can not even imagine somebody honestly loving ANYTHING, and simultainiously deluded to the point where you mistake your disfunction as some sort of higher knowledge.

Or you are just an asshole. Either way, you suck and nobody likes you.

i still think Volume 4 is a good one not like 5 and with more than 2 people working on the writing i think 7 will be good

I think the writers really went balls to the wall with the reveal. So you have this team of four teenage girls, what's the opposition they have to overcome? Oh, how about they need to achieve world piece or literally everyone will die!

Are you enjoying your Summer break?

One of my favorite pieces of RWBY fanart is just a close up picture of Ruby on the farm with all the thoughts that are going around her brain visible around her. I just can't find it.

It's fantastic how so much is implicit in that scenario!

Trust me redditor, I've been here longer than you. And your ilk was a pest a decade ago, you're still a pest now.

Except we already had that what with the Grimm keeping them pinned inside walls while relying on a finite dust supply. Kids save the world from certain doom isn’t really a new premise.

Found it!

Like I said, it's incredible how many plot details they managed to fit into just the beginning of this volume and how effortlessly they were communicated to the audience without any of the characters ever voicing them outirght once!

How so? Humanity being only kind of hanging on due to dust has been a thing since the get go.

You are bad at this.

Moerso that unless they succeed, there is nothing else they can do to combat that force.

"Hanging on" is a strong word compared to how much the humans of Remnant have accomplished.

When you're last major attempt to expand results is shit like Mountain Glen, I really don't think you can understate how precarious the species as a whole is.

>The animators are working one hundred hour work weeks for very little pay
A one hundred hour week would be 20 hours a day, or 14-15 hours if they work 7 days a week without any time off. That barely leaves any time to sleep, let alone basic things like eating meals and bathing and commuting to work. And for "little pay"? No human being would agree to that arrangement. Anyone would just quit if their workplace asked them to agree to that insanity. Story reeks of bullshit.

So, sorry to bring up this topic again but I am curious. Is Bumblebee actually legitimately confirmed, or are fans just taking the end of last season as complete confirmation? What does Word of God say at the moment?

They killed Adam and then hugged. Later on the showed up holding hands. It isn't confirmed, but it is pretty clear what direction they're heading by this point.

Word of god is "just watch the show".
There is no official confirmation, but it seems to be the logical direction they're heading in.

>Asking for proof of asshole behaviour is a coward's dodge.
No, that's how the American legal system works, "innocent until proven guilty"

You skipped the "replaced often" part.
Plenty of companies do this, recruiting people right out of college who are desperate and have student loans to pay. They don't have enough experience to notice red flags. Manager starts giving them more than they can handle "You pulled all-nighters in school, this is the same thing!" "Don't report that overtime, you ARE a team player, right?"
By the time they smell the bullshit, contracts have been signed and they can't leave without a huge penalty. When they burn out and can't or won't go on they are simply fired and a new crop of art students is brought in.

You can put on airs all you like. You still stick out like a sore thumb.

You're kind of naive aren't you? One hundred hour work weeks are common in the game industry. Just look at Rockstar and Telltale. Even if you don't understand why they would do such a thing, doesn't mean that they're not doing it.

saving the world by killing a tangible threat is a lot more believable then saving the world by just making everybody get along.

>"Pyrrha died for nothing? What about my mom?"
The Pyrrha thing is a good one. Ruby should ask that, but Jaune did it of course. And she should ask more questions about her mom, especially on how she died.

But that seems to be where the series is heading Salem was made unkillable by the very gods themselves, or at least until she realizes that humans need to die or whatever. So team RWBY either manages that, which will probably lead to everyone gets along peace anyway, or they bring back the gods to deal with her for them and that only works if humanity is at peace.

Japs have bad taste it is known.

lmao have you ever watched anything besides rwby? you're fucking delusional man.

I'm not naive enough to not realize that people love jumping on juicy rumors and blowing them out of proportion, and that once it snowballs enough to the point where everyone "knows" what happened, it continues to be believed just by virtue of the fact that it's "common knowledge" despite no evidence of wrongdoing ever being brought forward, even anonymously. You'd think in a company of 400 people (or more in fact, if they're getting replaced so often) SOMEONE would be able to produce some kind of tangible evidence that a genuine, large-scale abuse of human rights is going on.

That's ignoring the fact that in media production where you require a ton of skilled labor like animators, encouraging high churn and having to continually train newbies on your production pipeline is just needlessly incurring more expenses and producing less effective work. That isn't a viable business practice, it's total nonsense. What's more likely is that whatever was really happening was blown out of proportion by one guy who was butthurt over being fired.

>One hundred hour work weeks are common in the game industry. Just look at Rockstar and Telltale.
That's great, but not relevant as we are discussing Rooster Teeth. I could just as easily point you to Bob Lazar as another example of someone telling fantastic tales about the old workplace they were fired from while having zero evidence to support anything they say. You'd be equally naive to think people don't do that, or to think that people have never lied to try to get back at someone that wronged them (like being fired).

Why did they waste everyone's time building up Black Sun, then? Is it the usual "Miles and Kerry are hacks" explanation?

In America, you can choose your boss. It can even be yourself.
Why would you work hard for peanuts if you have the freedom to start your own journey?

The man attributed to that quote never knew the meaning of ambition and was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. You would trust someone like that to put words in yours?

Blake is best girl, but she's best girl trapped in an awful series that decided to give her her own 3-season long story arc. It's reasonable to feel conflicted.

You must be new to Twitter.

Those posts aren't really proof of anything. It's true that the high school setting was probably appealing - RWBY was released at the peak of battle harem popularity, which is literally just people fighting in high school with cute girls. Now battle harems have gone out the window and isekai is the popular genre, so it's less memetic.

I still think there are other factors at play, though. If the JP fanbase hated S4, no reason to dub S5. If the JP fanbase can just watch free, fansubbed niconico videos, why dub S5?

Oh yeah, other information from yesterday

Maybe it'll be a revolutionary non-monogamous relationship. Sun and Yang high-fiving while spitroasting Blake.

Although given that Yang's role in their "relationship" so far seems to be "don't think about your wants, do whatever I say, and look pretty", it'd more likely be Sun and Blake spitroasting Yang.

I see waifus in two ways - how they actually are portrayed and how they should be / how they would be in real life.

>actual tier list
Weiss > Yang = Ruby > Blake

>reality tier list
Blake > Weiss > Yang > Ruby

IRL Blake's character archetype is the best, easiest to get along with, but as written Weiss is a total fucking bro. IRL Weiss is still high-tier but you run into a lot of Rich White Girl problems that Blake just doesn't have. That's what I mean by "trapped in a shitty series" - she's good raw material, but they're writing her to be awful.

the japanese (used to) love it. also it's filled with your standard anime tropes so your basic bitch anime viewer who subscribes to crunchyroll loves it.

>you will never be spitroasted by blake and yang

Wtf... How is this? I. What is this? When was thisbwritten and why?

user, RWBY is RWBY. Love it. Hate. Don't tell us it's good.

Either it's the most poorly planned red herring ever or they switched up when they noticed they had a large market for it. Well, that or but that seems way too cool for this show.

It's more likely it hasn't been dubbed because WB Japan is retarded. They tried interfering in the main show a few times before (they pestered M&K to add beach and onsen episodes for example), and they got the rights to gen:lock, but won't even release that in Japan (they can't watch it legally, it's region locked on the RT site). Besides, I checked up on 5ch and niconico during V6, it's doing fine with fansubbed episodes, far better than V5 ever did.

Exactly how much build up was there for Black Sun, there was the dock fight and Painting the town red but aside from that did they ever interact until vol 5 when he just did his normal stuff and played creeper to blake.

>SOMEONE would be able to produce some kind of tangible evidence that a genuine, large-scale abuse of human rights is going on.
Dude. They're kids in cages right now. Americans are very good at not caring about their fellow man. Even when presented with all the evidence, they just don't give a shit.

People assumed he was so stuck on her because he wanted to get in Blake's pants turns out he's just that good of a friend and seeing how Ruby and Weiss acted the night beacon fell probably encouraged him to be that bold,too. I mean, it did for Team CFVY

I think Bumblebee was originally not planned. But after seeing how extremely popular it is, they decided to go for it. None of the other ships even combined come closer to BB. Volume 7 will probably develop Yang and Blake a lot, especially since Ruby will help Weiss with her family problems. So it's back to RW+BY instead of them being team RWBY.

youtube.com/watch?v=QKbPpGLNwsM

The biggest thing might just be that it was a typical flash in the pan type of popularity. That happens, something gets huge and the fad passes long before the story finishes.

Seems especially common in anime circles. Look at how hard AoT and OnePawwwwnch Man both disappeared.

>None of the other ships even combined come closer to BB.

This sadly. First half of volume 6 was so good because JNR were not in it.

I don't get what's up with burgers and portraying leaders lying to their underlings as a big sacrifice needed for the greater good and how everything fall apart once the truth is revealed. For me, it's way more disturbing that Ozpin has been erasing random civilians's consciousness for centuries and he's planning to do the same with Oscar than don't having a plan for beating Salem. It'd take it as pest control or any real world problem, it can't be solved but it can be controlled for making life tolerable. Burgers are just weird

Well, for a moment it seemed like he would be interesting, with him being all disillusioned and miserable over losing Pyrrha and cynical towards Ozpin.

But then they reverted all of that in order to avoid any complex characterization. Big letdown.

why is weiss so blue now

Muricans cant artstyle

And why is Blake so white.

I don't get where the idea came from that he doesn't like being able to turn into a bird. Qrow is angry that he thought he was in the innermost circle but it turned out there was a whole backstory he wasn't privy to and that there's apparently no win condition. Raven is the one doesn't like being able to become a bird, but she's also a selfish asshole who doesn't want to admit she relies on anyone.

It distracts from the actual issues, which are Yang repeating Raven't bullshit, everyone acting like turning into a bird is somehow more magical than everyone having fucking superpowers, and that no one has thought of the half dozen ways that seem really fucking obvious to neutralize Salem, such as:

Capturing her and sending her to
Space
The bottom of the ocean
A big ass metal box
A lava field
One of the Relic portal holes in space.

Or maybe follow up on the whole "learning the importance of life and death" thing.

Or maybe they should give up and embrace WMDs in defiance of the gods that set up bullshit conditions in the first place.

Yeah I know the writing of the show isn’t great but it was fucking annoying how nobody even asked: “Hey how about we just trap/detain Salem somehow?”

It’s a pretty fucking obvious thing to ask.

Or you know give Cinder's power to Emerald the girl who could use a power-up.

Because nothing about Jinn seems to point towards her being one of those 'exact wording or your fucked' magical beings? I mean, she was literally made to be helpful to humanity so it would make sense for her to be smart enough to know what Ozma was looking for when he asked.

So is Blake the most improved character this past season?

>reddit.com/r/RWBY/comments/c9kmhb/whats_happened_with_rwby_in_japan/

Viewership has been far lower for the second season. That's not just a quality issue.

I just marathoned the whole series a couple weeks ago, and while I've read/watched some of the hate on it, I don't really get it. For instance, the creator is basically treated like a paragon; so much of what I've seen was all "Monty would have definitely done this better!" as though they have a line on his thoughts from an alternate universe. Maybe he just didn't live long enough to become the villain.

Pretty sure the only thing that would’ve been any better with monty are some of the fights. Those did seem to get worse around when he died.

But yeah everything is conjecture and it’s crazy what gospels people come up with.

I did notice that, but they also didn't exactly go from Obi-Wan vs Anakin rocking it in RoTS to the same two dudes batting at each other in Star Wars. At worst, they went from excellent to competent, and then back up to pretty great in Season 6.

What it would be like if he didn't die is inherently hard to peg, since he croaked at the same time as a clearly planned swerve in the plot from school hijinks to Serious Plot. It's wishful alternate history to assume Monty would have made trudging through the woods and chilling at houses more exciting. while other people moved into position. Juggling split up character herds is often a hard balance.

Yeah that’s true. My guess is as blind as anyone’s but I think rwby would basically be the same as it is now. I only vaguely recall this, but I’m pretty sure even at the start he was mostly an ideaguy who did fight scenes. The writing even early on was (supposedly) handled by other people.

I’d take it over any of the highschool seasons.

My taste is apparently the opposite of the Japanese.

Well, hopefully this volume will drop the will they or won't they bullshit and just confirm BB already. People can still ship whatever the fuck they want, but a canon confirmation should take the edge off the ship wars.

What is general consensus about Casey Lee's songs? I imagine she must be fairly popular, but I'm not a fan of Vol. 6's OP myself

I think the general consensus is very positive. But personally, I think she's better at the slower stuff than the faster stuff and I think it's odd they keep going "Let's do rock! Let's do metal!" with her.

Well if it's anything like what happened when Naruto and Hinata ended up getting together then I'm all for the fallout.

What about the Male in the songs? Is that her father, Jeff? I keep thinking it sounds like the VA for Jaune

Some of them (the rap stuff mostly) are Lamar Hall, but generally, yes male vocals are Jeff. For a dude who's like 50 now, he's pretty damn cool.

His voice is pretty good, yeah. I want to be surprised but then again Geddy Lee Is still in business for a reason. I like seeing family stuff like that, either way, thanks.

I generally don't mind the songs myself, but if you're saying her slower ones are better I might need to check it out. I only listen to the OP's for the most part. The Triumph is in my favorite so far, but also because I remember hearing it for the first time and wondering if that was still her.

Yeah but he fucked up his own future by working with two ambulance chasers.

It's not really the edge, it's the move away from the school show and into more generic action stuff they have plenty of.

They have plenty more generic high-school shit than the kind of action stuff RWBY's trying to do

Because the Japanese have a downright fetish for childhood and teenage stories, there's a greater demand for school stories.

What was the general consensus of volume 6?I just watched it last night.I thought it was better than 4+5 but worse than volume 3.It felt inconsistent to me.I really liked the apathy and the whole farm part but the final fight with the mech was boring as shit and had very little pay off.
It feels though as if rwby introduced too many mysteries too quickly and then answered them all too quickly.

never hopefully.would ruin the little bit development jaune had

>being an unironic fan of RWBY and RT
You're better than this

The general consensus among most of the fanbase is that it's either the best volume or the second best behind 3, which I think is pretty accurate

3 > 1 = 2 = 6 > 4 > 5

The reason why maya models look unnatural is because they don't have any naked models to use. They just make the models with clothes on.

With an asspull or a miracle if you want..

That was exactly the same in Poser too. The poser models also looked weird just in different ways

Some of the poser models were just altered MMD models but yeah that's how it was.

I hope they get their SRW weapons if they ever do cameo

Let's be real, the development has already been ruined. At least Pyrrha returning would give JNPR something to do.

Portmanteau names are the second worst thing about ships. The first is non portmanteau names.

Actually on second thought after looking at the individual shots I think its just that Weiss' skirt is super long and concealing how blake's legs lead into those boots, looking like separate pants. And the void on Blake's hip is probably just very flat lighting on Ruby's cloak.

Also, caving into fan demands wasn’t what make KorraSami bad.
I mean realisticly what was the better alternative, sticking Korra back with boring ass Mako?
No KorraSami was bad because there was no romantic priming and they treated the ship like a god damn plot twist. Expecting good boy Virtue Signal points just for showing up.

Also, were fans really even calling for KorraSami back then before they started dropping their “hints”. KorraSami was largely considered a crack ship back then as far as I remember.

I remember that it picked up a lot of steam when we met Mako's grandparents i think?

I'll give you Renorafags, but no on Jaunefags. Jaune was being developed as an actual compelling character before having it all erased in Volume 6.

Jaune was always a joke character. People inflate him into something more because of the Pyrrha ship. If you take the Pyrrha stuff away, he's just a walking gag.

Debatable. Volumes 1-3 put a lot of emphasis on that ship and Jaune in general with his Jaundice arc.

I wouldn't say Jaune is a joke character, but a lot of people expected a lot more from him and JNPR.

I hate Blake for being so fucking hot while being an awful character.

>compelling

I think this has long been proven inaccurate and unreliable since most of the girls wear heels and the Poser models have different proportions based on what outfit they're wearing. Monty refused to make nude models because he was terrified they'd leak and be used for porn. The only exception is Velvet.

It just feels kinda weird that they put so much emphasis on Pyrrha's death being the big event at the end of V3 then it just kinda meanders after that. Penny would have made more sense considering the aftermach

Jaune's horrible at strategy and tactics and i have no idea why people act as if he's good at either. Ruby is very good at tactics but no one has shown any skill at strategy because there's been no need up to this point. If Jaune comes up with a realistic plan to be Salem maybe but i really don't see that happening

Nope, YANG'D.

Attached: 1541748559477.png (1440x810, 1.3M)

Exactly. JNPR was a mistake - looking back just cutting them from the show completely and focusing on Penny seems like a better choice.

>Ruby is very good at tactics
What? Ruby notoriously jobs every time she's fighting alone. Weiss and Yang are the only ones with any actual combat competency.

Attached: 1544108468802.jpg (1100x846, 109K)

Haven't watched since Yang lost an arm but damn those shoulders be wide.

RWBY almost never has smart fights just my power is better than yours. Not to mention that Jaune's mostly just a battery in fights. Not as useless as Ren but eh

even the whole "invincible girl thats been put on a pedestal" shit can be easily translated over to penny too

just because it caused problems for animators

Damn wtf I hate JNPR now. Nora would be a loss but an acceptable one for more Penny

It's mostly the fights against the Grimm that have any semblance of strategy. Hunter v Hunter is more of a 'rock, paper, scissor' sort of thing (the fights against robots excepted)

She took out the robot cannon.

Cut off scorpion guy’s tail, though that was mostly him getting sloppy.

I THINK she was the one to decide to cut the train last volume but I’m not 100% sure.

She has her moments.

I'm almost entirely certain there's gonna be a Penny 2.0 in the next volume.

>Weiss
>Competent.
Tell me 1 single fight against a human Weiss has won.

From a logstic standpoint you right. Personally, I'd just not kill Pyrrha and have JNPR go off on their own from V4 onwards. Check up on them maybe every once every 2 volumes. RWBY's team angst just bores me to no end and I'd rather have some lightheartedness from JNPR to get me through the Bee "drama/feels"every once and awhile

She was, using Ren was Nora's idea, Using Jaune to boost Ren was Ruby's Jauane spent the entire plan making process healing the idiots arm.

But will she be Penny uploaded to a new body, or a blank slate that's all "what is this 'friendship' you speak of?"

She blew out the poser at the party pretty good.

She beat up a civilian, then got bitch slapped by another

She's trained as a huntress, not a murderer.

My guess is similar appearance, but no memory of her friendship with Ruby and possibly hostile to RWBY because of their antagonism with Atlusian military.

Attached: 1535841972354.jpg (1280x720, 208K)

>Antagonism with the Atlasian military
What animosity? They managed to get Cordovin to come around and she was noted at the recent Q&A to be a stuck up witch and that's why she was in Argus instead of Atlas. If she's the worst Atlas has to offer military wise they should be fine especially with Ironwood likely being in their corner.

Penny is definitely coming back. We saw her creator moments after she died and we are now arriving at his doorstep.

This is also acceptable. I'm not exactly sure how RT really continues with JNPR at this point more than anything - I feel like they have a plan for JNPR because they had the Apathy planned since Volume 1, but there aren't that many ways to carry them forward.

We'll see but it is not encouraging or fun to be a JNPR fan.

>Penny 2.0
>Not mass produced Pennys

Unfortunately you’re probably right, but this would be cooler

Maybe they’ll add Penny to the team to make JNPR 2.Dos

M&K seem really unwillingly to separate JNR from RWBY and I really don't see why that is. Is giving them like a mini sidequest that hard?

Salem will kidnap rwby by herself

As fun as that may seem, adding Penny won't solve JNPR's narrative problem. Penny will probably be like Illia, a friend who will stay behind to help Atlas.

Apparently they're supposed to do something, I guess? This is why we will never be rid of folks saying Pyrrha could come back (I won't lie, I'm one of 'em). It doesn't seem like there is anything productive JNR can do other than getting killed off at this point.

No, RWBY took a detour but JNPR inevitably returned. You're confusing what we mean by 'separate'.

Maybe Mercury, but I expect Emerald and Mercury to be the second coming of the Torchwick/Neo combo.

True but that was primarily just for the RWBY inner team conflict to get resolved. I guess my primary question is why they continue to drag them along with nothing to do other than maybe 1 scene per volume. If they had more to do I don't mind but why do they need to be there if CRWBY wont use them?

>but I expect Emerald and Mercury to be the second coming of the Torchwick/Neo combo.

I'm more surprised that they still haven't found a replacement for her in JNPR. Hell, they just recently had the entire team confront Jaune's obsession with Pyrrha's death. They're still not over her death, let alone having closure. It will take years for them to actually to decide to find a replacement.

It’s pretty strange, not gonna lie

just came to say dan schneider on filmhaus is the least tolerable person i've ever seen

I don't think that's even planned. There isn't really any reason to fill the space and replace her.

They eventually have to if they plan to be hunters. They want to graduate from the academy and that requires a team of four members. Weird how the writers never address what happens when a student decides to quite, is too injured to be a hunter, and or dies.

Their replacement was Ruby. Since RWBY came back together, they have:

ridden a train
hung out for a couple days with Jeane's sister

and that's about it. There wasn't a wealth of opportunity to go hunting for more students. And the 4 person team thing largely appears to be a training group. They aren't exactly training right now.

>They eventually have to if they plan to be hunters. They want to graduate from the academy and that requires a team of four members.

Do they? Their school is currently overrun, and their current plan appears to be "fightSalem" not "first find a school to go to again, then fight Salem"

>Weird how the writers never address what happens when a student decides to quit, is too injured to be a hunter, and or dies.
Why is that weird?

if you give JNR a sidequest, basically more screentime, there will be complaints about them stealing the focus from RWBY.
