Or should any future material start over with a new continuity?
>>151395459They're at the tail end, might as well just wrap it up.
>>151395459No, it'd need a hard rest back to pre fall. The fall could still happen, but all the lore after that is dumb and they definitely should have spent more time in Beacon fleshing out both the main cast and all these side characters they tossed at us only to never do anything with.
>>151395487personally if it were up to me, I'd rewrite Salem to just be a humanoid Grimm, make the Grimm a bigger existential threat than they're presented as originally.Grimm are attracted to negative emotion, and knowing just how scary Grimm can actually be would lead to rampant despair that would see kingdoms turned into constantly besieged war zones that would see society collapse. So the councils present the Grimm as dumb monster hordes that totally get wiped out by super cool huntsmen on the regular like the heroic figures they are, keeping the population complacent.Meanwhile, beyond the beowolves and Ursas, you have ancient Grimm that have developed human thought to better counter them, or straight up Eldritch horrors, that all work together to actively try to wipe out all light bearing species(Humans, Faunus, Penny?). Sorta emphasize it's an eternal, very hot war that most of society is blind to beyond the surface level culling.
>>151395459RWBY ended with Maka Albarn bissecting Ruby in half from the ass up it's canon
>>151395565They were building to something like that initially with the pack of grimm who learned to avoid humans in order to survive.Having them evolve and adapt into a more humanoid type appearance sounds pretty reminiscent of Evangelion, and how the Angels kept developing new methods of attack.On top of all that, the Volume 3 opener "When it Falls" refers to Salem as "Hate Incarnate"
>>151395459Yes but she needs to be as homophobic as possible.
>>151395459Ruby should star in a hentia
>>151396101It would have been neat if Salem is presented as the big bad in the post fall volumes, and they actually do eventually kill her, only for the twist to be she's not actually the top Grimm, she was basically just a humanoid mouthpiece Grimm to keep the Grimm's human agents and cultists managed. Meanwhile the actual 'leaders' of the Grimm on a worldwide scale are ancient, highly evolved army killing monsters who's very existence being revealed to the public would completely destroy the status quo in society.Although thinking on it, I suppose it'd be aping the same overall concept from settings HxH and Bloodborne.
>>151395459Finish it then reboot it in 5-10 years' time
>>151395459>IP that's 80% of the way through it's narrative >Community and watch base that's been dwindling for years >Well known for mediocrity and controversies>Backlog of 9 inconsistent to mediocre volumes that make it harder for new fans to jump in >Rabbid fan base that no company would want to touch with a 10 foot pole, and that also unintentionally gatekeeps normies >Production crew full of talentless hacks, shitty Nepo hires and opinionated nut jobs that are pure unadulterated PR poison>Said crew will likely also fight to keep their "original vision" intact and use dirty tactics like cry to the fandom or invoke a dead man's name to get their way You'd have to be beyond stupid to let them make vol 10 and beyond when you can just reboot it to get much more mileage out of the franchise. Reboot this shit with competent writers, a good production schedule and recast the VAs. Doesn't matter if you piss the loud minority off when you can just attract a new audience and actually retain them this time.At best, let the writers finish the original story though novels or comics. Or I guess you could force them to make vol 10 the final one and have a cool down of 3ish years before announcing the reboot.
>>151396263Those sorts of "Haha, just kidding. Here's the real villain" twists only really work with some careful foreshadowing, or a far shorter story (either in run time, or length of time since the media's beginning)It runs a serious risk of making the previous conflicts look unnecessarily cheap.The show actually did do this twice already. Torchwick answered to Cynder, and Cynder answered to Salem. But those two always had mysterious motives even when the focus is on them for a scene. Salem is different. Instead of discussing their plans, she's directing the others to do her bidding.It was fine after a season or two, but now we're at six volumes (with significantly more air time compared to the first two) with Salem as the primary threat.You could argue this could work for a reboot show, but regardless of how bad original RWBY turned out to be, people will still have it's story in the back of their minds. The first impressions have already been made, and can't be unmade.
Huh, she's kinda cute with longer hair.
did you see the leaked designs by Monty's widow? there was supposed to be a RWBY beach episode and a different Cinder backstory
I am fine with if they continue to the end or do something like continue Ice Queendom instead. It depends on who will be animating them I guess, since I don't see RWBY continuing as a manga series for now based on the current announcements from Viz who owns them.After either of those are finished they can do a reboot or a next gen sequel. Although if the company was smart they would probably do some spinoffs instead for a bit since reboots or next gen sequels can easily be hit or miss.
>>151397675They probably should have gone for this
>>151398064Proto yang weapon?
>>151398086Qrow banged this?!
>>151398118He wishes.>>151397751>>151398086Not bad but what we end up with is much better, this is too show-off for her personality.
>>151398118ah, right Sheena said Winter was supposed to develop a crush on Qrow because opposites attract but Kerry and Miles sunk that ship
>>151398190I supported that ship a while ago, but there was always some sad faggot complaining that they were roughly 23 and 40 years old respectively. Apparently you're not a grown adult with agency at that age. We all just shrink into a dumb little baby who can't say no when around someone older.
>>151398525its pedophilia except when its two female characters then the yuriniggers will defend it violently

The charges, officer?
>>151399043>You failed the pregnancy test.
>>151399112Time for his punishment
Blake Belladonna is the perfect woman and THE hottest RWBY character, bar none
>>151395459Viz should start off with a reboot and make sure none of the previous CRWBY are involved. They'd ideally consult Sheena and Shane to shape the reboot, and whoever gets to be the showrunner must not only be a MAJOR weeb, but be a big fan of JRPGs (particularly Squeenix ones), fighting games, and character action games. The showrunner should be familiar with fairytales, myths, folklore from all over the globe, and by all means they should know what alchemy is. The reason why so many attempts at "fixing RWBY" fail or divorce themselves too far from RWBY lies with how many people are not familiar with the strongest influences behind Monty's work. Alchemy, fairy tales, and JRPGs...as well as NGE and Twin Peaks (since they pretty much inspired every anime/manga and video game to come out of Japan).
>>151395565It's pretty interesting you mention that because "Salem is a humanoid Grimm" was not only a theory floated around after V3, but it's been speculated that Salem may have originally been intended to be an alien of some sort considering:>Salem and the Grimm are strongly associated with the moon>the moon is tied to rabbits and The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter (featuring Kaguya the Moon Princess) in Japanese culture>Kaguya is a recurring archetype who pops up constantly in Japanese media (an immortal woman from the moon who offers immortality to her lover the Emperor when she is taken back to her home, but he refuses to live forever if he can't see her) like NGE and Naruto>the moon plays a big role in FF8 and FF9 as well as in Soul Eater (works that influenced Monty)
>>151400296>not only that, but the Grimm's (pre-V4) behavior is described as particularly singling out humans>Hollows from Bleach were an inspiration for the designs of the Grimm>Shane recently revealed that Remnant was at some point planned to be a Hollow Earth deal, and potentially involved in a war with the civilization on the surface>Monty watched NGE, Naruto, and Bleach
I'm a bizarre individual who thinks Vol. 4-6 is the peak of the series.
>>151400195>They'd ideally consult Sheena and Shane>They'd ideally consult two low-skill, retarded nepo hires, one of whom threw a fucking tantrum when a company didn't ignore his complete and total lack of qualifications to hand him control of an IP he had zero claim to.Miles and Kerry are shit writers and no one on that entire crew (or 95% of the cast) should be involved in a reboot, but god damn anyone stupid enough to think a fucking waste of space like Shane should be put in charge needs to be shot in the back of the head.
>>151400476explain, anon, I'm curious as to why
>>151397675so I wasn't crazy for assuming Cinder was a former student this whole time? feels nice to be vindicated - how else would she be effective at infiltrating Beacon?
>>151396263fun you mention that because Monty was familiar with HxH
>>151400512On a superficial level, 1-3 is mostly held back by being SOL with subpar animation outside of fight until the finale. As for 7-9, it feels like it's dragging its feet when there's still one other maiden and two other relics to locate, and then 9 goes off into a fairy tale/isekai adventure (that's actually better than 7 and 8, funny enough).What 4-6 lost with Monty Oum's fight sequences and the deaths of you know who's, it improved on every other front. RWBY were all able to develop on their own and bounce others that weren't just their same group. Tyrion, Arthur, and Hazel were additiona to Salem's crew to balance out the flippant teens/young adults who formed the villain core in the first few seasons. I cared about every bit more of world lore that kept getting delivered, and just how much Beacon's fall fucked pretty much everyone up. Every episode felt like something substantial was building up, and each season finale from that middle trio felt satisfying and made me interested in seeing more.I guess it's safe to say that what RWBY used to be was just something I wasn't interested in, and what it is now is just dragging on what I did like. So yeah, bizarre.
>>151398525I think the age gap's a little bigger than that
>>151400476I could give you V4 being underrated and V6 has at least some good stuff (the lore dump episode is one of the best episodes in the series imo), but V5 is just fucking terrible. They just spend the whole fucking season standing and talking. I'm pretty they even joke about it at one point. Literally the only good part was Raven dunking on Cinder. The rest of the final battle was almost comedic with everyone just... fucking standing around awkwardly. I know the budget was getting siphoned for Gen:Lock for that season and it fucking shows, jesus christ.
>>151398190I always assumed that Winter would hypothetically like Qrow because he's everything that her father wasn't. Sure, Qrow can be a womanizing slobby drunk but he's clearly involved with raising Ruby and Yang, and he's very devoted to his family. Winter came from a cold and abusive home. No wonder she would fall for Qrow's roguish charms, he could get her to loosen up and get out of her shell and she would civilize him and tidy him up.
>>151400772How old do you think they are?
I just can't picture Qrow being older than 29, even though he has to be. That design does not scream "approaching middle age", and his voice after Vol. 6 doesn't help either.
>>151400872Branwens simply age like wine. The only indication that Raven isn't just Yang with contacts and hair dye is some almost imperceptible lines beneath her eyes.
>>151399560I can't post it on a blue board.
>>151395459No restarting.I spent the last decade watching them dig a hole. By god they are gonna dig themselves out.
>>151400407I love this sort of analysis. Really picking back all the anime that inspired RWBY initially.It's like when someone draws inspiration from classical literature in a modern novel.That's how all this is going to be seen in fifty years. To some, it's already how it's seen.
>>151400772Winter seems like she's a lot older than Weiss. Far older than the gap between Weiss and Whitley. They just have that sort of relationship about them. Plus, she's already in such a high rank in Atlas's military. I wouldn't expect her to be any less than 22 or 23.Hell, if you want to take Chibi into account, she comments on how young the students are with the phrase "Youth is wasted on the young". Just not something you say about your sister who's younger by a couple years.For that scene in particular, I think it would have made a bit more sense to have it be Glynda. Of course, there were external reasons why it couldn't be Glynda.
Nah, without an Asian that wanted to make ambitions with this series as the head runner(Oum) its as good as dead
>>151401977That's the main thing keeping RWBY from being the show it deserved to be.Who would sacrifice so much time, energy, and money to risk so much for so little gain. If it's good, then people will still attribute the show to Monty, and potentially most of the good things about it. If it's bad, then it's just seen as spitting on his legacy. If you don't have your own ideas for how to make the show good, then you're going to make a bad show. If you do have your own ideas, then you'd be much better off making something original, and maybe calling RWBY an inspiration.That's really why it'll never leave the land of fanfic once their corporate overlords give up on it.
>>151400094Based and true
>>151400094She probably smells though
>>151400296It's weird seeing Princess Kaguya described in terms like that when my head image of her will always be overridden by Touhou
>>151395459I have some ideas that could save RWBY.>Salem is about to win; she has everyone cornered.>Suddenly, a spaceship crushes her.>The reds and blues leave the ship.>Grif: "Hey guys, do you know why we're here?">Everyone applauded.>And Blake died, choked on a fishbone.
>>151403347Red Wersus BlueY
>>151397648>I don't see RWBY continuing as a manga series for now based on the current announcements from Viz who owns themA script is being written. Production hasn't started, nor has Vol 10 been greenlit.>>151401532>By god they are gonna dig themselves out.Never gonna happen.>>151400094Ew no.
>>151400195Might as well just make your own RWBY
>>151397700An actual Middle Eastern character in RWBY would have been interesting, but maybe they omitted those because USA has many issues with the Middle East. It's like doing a Russian, Brazilian, Hindu, or Chinese character nowadays.>>151397751>>151398086Isn't one of these Winter, but the other one an unused Weiss design? Also, Sheena drew a Qrow alternate design, and I noticed he was supposed to look younger. Less middle aged man. Sheena also admitted that Monty might have created the Maidens based on a suggestion of hers, but that they were actually supposed to represent the 4 Chinese animal symbols (dragon, bird, tiger, turtle), not the 4 stations.>>151397767Neo not wearing a hat makes more sense, considering how acrobatic she is. And this one didn't omit that part of her hair is white. Nice.>>151397675RT basically butchered the character arc Monty and Sheena planned for Cinder. Sheena said that Miles and Kerry never approached her to consult what other ideas Monty had for future volumes.
>>151395459They should finish the show before they do any (more) reboots or spin offs.But they should also hash out what Salems actual plan is, because they are just running on a hypothesis that her plan is to blow up the world so she can possibly kill herself.I think giving her an actual God complex and her goal is actually to destroy the relics so she can be the only true magic user on remnant would be better than a long protracted suicide attempt.
>>151403696>They should finish the showNo. The show costs too much and the audience ain't there. RWBY's too niche to justify another volume. A reboot is more sound since it can attract a new audience. No one's jumping in for Vol 10, guys.
>>151401124Its alright I know which image you probably wanted to post
>>151403964>No one's jumping in for Vol 10, guys.Or watch the previous volumes without cringing and dipping out early on. The show isn't rewarchable unless you're an old fan or you just have impeccably shit taste.
>>151404060As a new watcher this year, it took all my strength to get through the early volumes.
>>151397751>>151397600>Fan: But many people who work on RWBY claim to be 'carrying on Monty's legacy', especially the two people who acted as writers alongside your late husband. Did they contribute to the mistreatment you and those who stood up for you? Or where they passive observers who did nothing to assist you?>Sheena: To put it plainly, I haven't been in contact with most people from the company in over a decade. Following the email about RWBY notes, I was removed from social medias, blocked on twitter and ignored through texts, so I stopped wasting my time>There were two people who checked in on me to make sure I wasn't doing anything stupid: one of them was Shane, the other had nothing to do with RWBY.>They did not, in fact, follow up. This was shortly after they had attempted to, "recover," my personal hard drives during their visit to our apartment to collect the company's hard drives. It's such a shame because there were a lot of documents I had written and consolidated while sitting next to Monty that I was more than happy to share with them as a contracted consultant. I had asked some close friends if I should just hand over all of my work since they seemed lost about direction, but they insisted that if the crew were truly interested in Monty's vision, they would come to me.>I'm not sure what has been said regarding the Maidens as I have not been able to look at anything beyond Volume 2. >From my perspective, there are two types of fans. There are the viewers who are fans of RWBY, and there are the viewers who are fans of Monty. He put himself into his work and it shows.
>>151397751>I completely forgot to include this but for anyone interested, this illustration titled, “Ink,” by Zetallis inspired both Winter’s characterization concept and her relationship to Qrow. The concept of being born, “pure white,” representing obedience and fulfilling obligations while the black ink represents wanting to cover it up and live freely without expectations seemed to fit the theme. This was how she fell in love with Qrow while he was baiting her with an escape.
>For sake of clarity, here are a few of Monty's unedited notes for his Beach episode. It was important to him to cram a lot of, "fun fun fun," into Volume 3 before they lost Pyrrha. The purpose of this episode was to allow breathing room for more characters to interact with each other, not for fan service.
>>151404729
>Qrow Branwen>I did a preliminary sketch for Qrow knowing how important this character was to Monty. The one desire he had was for there to be, "a lot of feathers," while also referencing Guilty Gear Xrd. What a request.>I unfortunately couldn't bring myself to revisit this design.Qrow lost his feathers and youth.
Honestly it is nice to see those old sketches as a curiosity but I really don't care about Sheena's ideas or what she had planned for the characters, I don't see any hidden gem there.
>>151404880>t. Miles and Kerry sucker
>>151397767I hate that they switched Neo's pink eye to her right side. Just when they were about to fix that, the show got cancelled.
>>151404880>I don't see any hidden gem there.Neither in team RWBY's post-Beacon designs.
>>151404892>>151404964Lady you don't need to be so upset.

>>151397767>Putting more effort into Neo than RWBY.Kek. At least Vacuo's outfits looked like they were going to be better than the ones from Atlas, Haven, and JL Part 2.
>>151405252I dunno, feels like everyone's outfits were at their best during Haven.

>>151405309>Blake's terrible white coat>Weiss's plain blue dress.

>>151405376Not agreeing with that anon but Weiss's blue dress was supposed to look a lot better. The animation engine fucked it up.
>>151405376Nta but I'm sorry for your taste.
>>151405376I stand by what I say.
>RWBY Chibi chose Neo's pink eye to be the left one>But also forgot the white hair strands from her V2 designWho drew the unused, fixed design? Sheena?
Everyone talking about reboots, but my hot take is make a rebootquel like Final Fantasy 7 Remake or Scott Pilgrim Takes Off; RWBY kind of has an underlying "history repeating itself" motif added with the Fairy Tale elements (which are well known for revisions/rewrites) that could be interesting with a new group of writers. Making a sequel with a new cast or an aged up old cast wouldn't work without having to retread several of the original's flaws in writing and a full-on reboot has always the chances of making things retarded.
>>151405524WBY peak with the v2 huntress outfits, Ruby was the only one who got upgrades as the series went on. I think the Mistral one is the best but Atlas' one is very close.
>>151405607>WBY peak with the v2 huntress outfitsSame. Should've been their Post-Beacon looks.>Ruby was the only one who got upgrades as the series went on.Nah, Vol 4-6 was the peak. 7-9's a downgrade from all the others like the rest.
>>151405641>Nah, Vol 4-6 was the peak.Nobody likes Cinder and Neo's Haven-Atlas designs over Beacons. Also, V1 Ruby > Atlas RWBY > V2 Ruby > the restV1 Weiss > V2 Weiss > the rest > AtlasV1 Blake > The restV2 Yang > V1 Yang > the rest
>>151405641>7-9's a downgrade from all the others like the rest.Ruby's Atlas outfit is much better than her initial one, only the scarf-cape feels off for being oversized.>>151405751We were talking about the RWBY team but Cinder's Atlas design is fine, a bit worse than the short red dresses but better than the Mistral.>NeoThat was just a downgrade, agree.
>>151400195Miles and Kerry seem to dislike Shane and Sheena, so the show was doomed to never follow up on most of what Monty planned. Even if V10 was greenlit, we have to admit that it would be mostly Kerry's vision, not Monty's, considering all the changes they have made to Remnant, such as destroying Atlas and Vale.
Thoughts?
>>151405939If Adam and Raven were supposed to be part of the same clan, that idea was definitely discarded once Monty passed away, just like Raven's role in V3.
Anon:I know this is a heavily controversial topic for rwby, but what did monty have on adam taurus? did he share any ideas of him with you? you mentioned before how you haven't caught up with the series since v2, but it would be nice to have your thoughts on adam and if it aligned with what happened in the showSheena:All I know about him is that Monty was very passionate about his fight. He had been working on it on and off for a long time, expressing his hope that somehow, some way he would be able to license this song he had been using. It didn’t seem likely at all, but that didn’t dissuade him.It took place in the red forest from the Black trailer, with the sound starting at 2:16 highlighting the deed. I don’t know if he ever finished it.

Shame they were too stingy to keep her as a consultant.
>>151406977>Are women adults at 18Women aren't adults at 99 years of age
I stopped watching around the time where they introduced the Robin Hood lady. I just got burned out on the series at that point. It started off good but then basically just became a long sequence of Dragon Ball Z style shonen-esque fight scenes instead of a story.
>>151395459>Can RWBY be salvaged No. The moment they ripped off destiny's orgin story was the moment they should've just called it quits, wipe the slate clean, and start over.
>>151407254>The moment they ripped off destiny's orgin storyqrd? I didn't know they went from ripping off ATLA to Destiny.
>>151407001If you put together the various influences behind RWBY, you can sorta piece together what Monty's plans for the story may have been>FF7: our heroes fight a corrupt corporation and then an alien threat attempting to dominate/genocide the world>FF8: group of child soldier students fight off against a powerful sorceress (who is the ex-wife of their boss) and her monsters who fall from the moon, while dealing with war between nations (the result of the sorceress' planning)>AOT: trained child soldiers fight off endless hordes of monsters (who are in fact sent by an opposing faction of humanity)>Black Rock Shooter: superpowered girls duke it out in a "hollow earth": the consequences of an alien invasion>Bleach: heroes fend off corrupted spirits before beefing with the elite forces of the governing institutions after one of their own is put in danger>Soul Eater: students fight off witches/monsters/the forces of madness under the supervision of Death, attempting to keep the evil god of madness away>NGE: teenaged mecha pilots defend Tokyo-3 from invading aliens (while a shadow cabal is engineering events to result in mass ego death)>Naruto: ninjas engage in proxy wars between clans as mercenaries and soldiers, being manipulated by terrorists in an attempt to end war>Kingdom Hearts: a plucky hero becomes the backup chosen one to stop the forces of Darkness from obtaining the power of the Heart of All Worlds/Sacred Moon/Kingdom Hearts>HxH:>Cowboy Bebop: >Kill la Kill: I would do the last three but I'm tired lol

>>151407424>>151407653Reminder that at IMDB, even RWBY is considered a better series than DMC. The issue with most of these is that while many are cool, they don't necessarily have good storylines. It's okay to use them as visual guides or for character design inspiration, but one doesn't learn good writing from FF, AOT, BRS, SAO, DMC, Bleach, or KH.
Kill La Kill influencing RWBY's storyline would've been... An interesting train wreck to see, I suppose.
>>151407761It didn't need to have the best writing. It just needed to be fun and satisfying. RWBY needed to stay popcorn fiction like its influences, rather than try to match Tolkien and fail hard at it. Demon Slayer, JJK and Solo Leveling blew up for a reason.
>>151395459Killed by Maka
>>151407761of course you can learn good writing from anime. after watching it you go "wow, that was awesome. I wonder what inspired it" and then you listen to the music + watch the movies + read the books + play the games that influenced them
>>151407969>after watching it you go "wow, that was awesome. I wonder what inspired it" and then you listen to the music + watch the movies + read the books + play the games that influenced themSo, Chainsaw Man fans?
>>151397767Where's this from?
>>151400407>Shane recently revealed that Remnant was at some point planned to be a Hollow Earth deal, and potentially involved in a war with the civilization on the surfaceI'd take Hollow Earth as Salem's base instead of the basic bitch castle. Too far into fairy tale, not enough anime.
>>151407796everything points to aliens and conflict between humans being whatever RWBY might have been originally about, especially when you remember that Halo was an influence alongside NGE and FF7
>>151400407>Shane recently revealed that Remnant was at some point planned to be a Hollow Earth deal, and potentially involved in a war with the civilization on the surface>>151408046Source for this? Not that I distrust you, but I wanna learn what more they had originally planned, like with Sheena.
>>151406977Anon, children don't stop developing mentally until their late 20's. Age gap isn't an issue people just made up. It's very real.
>>151408074So should women be allowed to make decisions, like who they can and cannot date/fuck, or should we hold off until they reach their late 20s? It's painfully obvious where I'm going with this.
>>151408069Monty's direct influences: >FF7, FF8, FF10, FF13, Dead or Alive/Ninja Gaiden, Kingdom Hearts, Attack on Titan, Black Rock Shooter, Bleach, Soul Eater, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Naruto, Hunter x Hunter, Cowboy Bebop, Kill la Kill, Blazblue, Guilty Gear, Gurren Lagann, Trigun, Fullmetal Alchemist, Samurai Champloo, Devil May Cry, Halo, Game of Thrones, Guyver, Giant Robo, Ghost in the Shell, Wuxia fiction, John Wu movies, alchemy, ATLA, SAO, Ghibli movies, and the Wizard of Oz Monty's indirect influences: (media that inspired what he took influence from) Ultraman, Kamen Rider, the Eternal Champion cycle, Devilman, Gundam, Muvluv, Ace Combat, Life is Strange, Spawn, spaghetti westerns, Alien, Dragon Ball, Twin Peaks, Buddhism, Jung, Freud, JJBA, Junji Ito, Dragon Quest, Solaris, Blade Runner, Lupin III, Tekken, Getter Robo, Gunbuster, Elric, Urusei Yatsura, Resident Evil 4, Evil Dead, Cobra, the Matrix, the Divine Comedy, Blade, Underworld, Vampire Hunter D, Macross, Fist of the North Star, Godzilla, The Village, Berserk, Breaking Bad, Conan the Barbarian, D&D, Mad Max, etc.
I remember Remnant itself was supposed to be a huge fucking gun and that's how the moon got fucked. If Salem and Grimm originated on the Moon, then that explains why. Whoever was manning the planet was trying to kill her.
>>151408325In other words, Remnant was a Death Star.
>>151408325
>>151408325Play FF8. There's also a whole Gnostic/occult bent with the moon in various 90s's anime/JRPGs, the Moon = Cosmic Egg = Kaguya = Moonchild throughline.
>>151408325Correction. It's the Space Colony Ark.
>>151408339Da fuck? No wonder they chose to rip-off Atla and Destiny instead.
>>151408374Reminder that in RWBY and Sonic we do see moons and planets getting destroyed or wiped off, unlike in DMC.
>>151408371Grimm and Salem being aliens would've been way cooler than the YA fairy tale shit we got. Maybe Ozpin was one of them and he was a K-Pax situation. Alien consciousness possessing human dude.>>151408384>>151408384>Da fuck? No wonder they chose to rip-off Atla and Destiny instead.We get it. You're a nerd who hates fun.
>>151405939I was always sure that Adam was meant to play a bigger role considering the DMC parallels, but also the potential Journey to the West nod (Sun is Sun Wukong, so Adam is the Demon Bull King) as well as the mystery behind his eyes, the implied connection between him and Raven, Adam and Ruby sharing a Rose motif (odd considering that Monty was consistent with family members or closely associated people sharing unique symbols), the Biblical meaning behind his name, and him being both the Enchanted Rose and the Beast
I didn't know the issue of people pushing what Monty would or wouldn't have done was this bad. Worse than Miura with Berserk.
>Adamfags still suffering>Even asking Monty's widow about himSome things never change.
>>151408471Monty did put some soul into the series but I agree that the worship he gets makes no sense. A lot of what he did was going for the rule of cool, that did made the show memorable, but doesn't make for good writing for a long series.
>>151408471>I didn't know the issue of people pushing what Monty would or wouldn't have done was this bad.Sheena reignited the fire, and Kerry still hasn't delivered a new volume. Of course, people have nothing to do but argue if the post-Beacon RWBY we got is really what Monty would've wanted, and what's the best direction for RWBY to take if V10 never happens.
>>151408514>but doesn't make for good writing for a long series.Neither MKEK's writing, who don't even give us rule of cool.
>>151408431I like to think that Ozpin was supposed to be completely foreign to Hollow Earth-Remnant, like an inverse of the Kaguya myth that parallels with the Wizard of Oz.>Oz is a spaceman who shows up on the planet, and lies his way to success and power>he eventually meets the woman who would become Salem, and he falls in love with her>his politicking and social manipulation spirals out of control, resulting in the creation of the Grimm and the Faunus and the destruction of what he's built>humanity then splits into two warring factions, one remaining on the surface while the second goes inside the planet>when Salem is killed, he attempts to revive her but she becomes his immortal Frankenstein's Monster, and declares herself Hate Incarnate, vowing to destroy everything that Oz will build from now on (after all, everything was fine until he showed up) using the Grimm as her weapon
>>151408540>if you don't worship Monty then you must worship MKEKGo back to twitter..
>>151408339>It's also a gun>but the fucking moon this timenot gonna lie, that sounds cool as fuck.
>>151407254"I didn't watch Monty Oum's RWBY to see Miles Luna's Avatar."At this point, it is Kerry's Destiny, with some anti-Trump propaganda sprinkled here and there.
>>151408462>Sun is Sun Wukong, so Adam is the Demon Bull KingThe 2 being half brothers would mirror Ruby and Yang. That's good shit there.
>>151408702cont. Oh, and Kerry's DC shilling. Although now that he has been fired from Warner, I don't think we will get more DC glazing.
>>151408578Salem seems to have originally been some composite of Orochimaru, Medusa, the Wicked Witch of the West, the Evil Queen, Frankenstein's Monster, Solaris, Father/The Dwarf in the Flash, the Angels, Ragyo, Kaguya, Ultimecia, Jenova, Xehanort, the Anti-Spiral, Millions Knives, Mundus, Sin/Yu Yevon/Yunalesca, and Asura
>>151408740Starting to think Monty Oum was a Potential Man when it comes to writing.
>>151408740If only they actually committed to those inspirations.
>>151408757the man died right when things were about to pop off, no shit
My headcanon for why Yang is gay is 1. Blake is literally the hottest woman on the entire planet and that's why every person she meets seems to fall in obsessed love with her and 2. Blake was masturbating to her yaoi books one day and Yang saw it
>>151408771HE HAD THREE SEASONS ALREADY
>>151408757>Starting to think Monty Oum was a Potential Man when it comes to writing.Fuck yeah he was.>>151408462>Adam and Ruby sharing a Rose motif (odd considering that Monty was consistent with family members or closely associated people sharing unique symbols)Summer's eldest maybe?>>151408773Fucking freak.
>>151408740>RagyoHow is Salem being inspired by a rapist who tortures her daughter a good thing?
>>151408485What is your damage with the guy?
>>151408757>Starting to think Monty Oum was a Potential Man when it comes to writing.Anon, he died!>If and when, but never is!But he died!>Never developed his storyBecause he died!>What a lazyass!He's dead!>In fact, I dare Monty toDAMN IT!
>>151405430>The animation engine fucked it up.Don't blame the engine, blame the person using it.
>>151408757Monty was basically an Ideas Guy with a skill for animation, its why he specifically hired M&K to be the writers. He knew he wasn't a good writer, and would just come up with ideas and need people to manage to work it into the writing.Reminder that the Maidens were a pretty late idea he wanted added, not to mention Neo was created cause he saw a cool cosplayer one time.
>>151408867>its why he specifically hired M&K to be the writers.I thought he hired them as writers because they were his friends.
>>151408799it would explain a lot about her and Salem>Evil Queen-Mega Satan-Shadow Witch grooms and abuses her adopted daughter (Cinder) into ending the world through mass ego deathI always suspected that Cinder used to be a student and Sheena's stuff confirming that makes me wonder if she didn't have some connection with Oz before she changed her identity from Medea to Cinder...I wonder if Monty ever watched Kung Fu Panda because it would explain why Cinder REALLY wanted Maiden powers. Maybe she was supposed to be like Tai Lung? A former Maiden candidate who Oz denied, only to fall into Salem's clutches.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medea
>>151405588>Final Fantasy 7 Remake or Scott Pilgrim Takes offNow I see why you like RWBY, you have shitty taste.
>>151395459It should have a reboot that turns out to be a sequel. The show has canonically made it that fallen timelines where the baddie wins is established. Have the show start again to get new blood. Season 2 have someone from the last doomed timeline come out and say they won't let it happen again.
>>151400094Shut the fuck up Blake.
>>151395459I've always wondered what Mercury's role in the story may have originally been considering>Mercury's rather prominent and important role within alchemy (not only one of the three prime materials, but the first matter)>Alchemy/Jung and the world creating snake spirit Mercurius>the Greek/Roman deity Hermes/Mercury and his job as a psychopomp, but also his ties to Anubis and Hermes Trismegistus/Enoch>deliberate foiling with Yang (he's her exact opposite)>Wizard of Oz parallels with Ironwood (tin men)
>>151408987Hey, he's right........Until the haircut.
>>151408904>Season 2 have someone from the last doomed timeline come out and say they won't let it happen again.Jaune?
I'm dropping the fanfic 9 chapters in. It's an active struggle for me to read, and I feel like there's better things I could be doing with my time than read it just because some anon here told me to. Now can someone please recommend me a good anime or cartoon?
>>151408757Can you please state your beliefs without putting them in the vernacular of black people on Tiktok whose only manga is Jujutsu Kaisen?
>>151409108>Now can someone please recommend me a good anime or cartoon?Azumanga or primal.
>>151409108>I'm dropping the fanfic 9 chapters in?
>>151408065>alongside NGE and FF7Evangelion was not an influence on RWBY. Anyone who believes that is wrong.
>>151409140I don't wanna watch Azumanga Daioh.I already watched Primal when it held Toonami hostage.
>>151409165from monty's twitter: "19 years later and Evangelion still makes my brain hurt"from monty's interview with crunchyroll:Threezero: For collectors who may not be familiar with your work; how did the concept of RWBY cometo mind? What are some of your influences and inspirations?Monty: RWBY is both something I came up with within the last few years, as well as something I'vewanted to do my whole life. I've been a lifelong anime and videogame fan. [Neon Genesis] Evangelionwas a big part of growing up for me, I’ve had lifelong theories about Eva that, true or not, I apply to myshow. Ghost in the Shell, I’ve watched multiple times; much of the philosophy about existence andidentity are things I’ve thought about constantly growing up. Toppa Tengen Gurren Lagann is probablymy all time favorite anime. It just has a level of energy and enthusiasm I enjoy. There are subtle (and notso subtle) lessons in Gurren Lagann about not giving up; energy that persists beyond oneself that I applyto RWBY."dudethat's not even mentioning how NGE inspired FF7 and some of the stuff Monty was a fan of (Naruto, AOT, Bleach, TTGL, KLK, etc)
>>151408904>Multiverse slopNo, just reboot it normally without alternate timeline bs.
>>151408904>Have the show start again to get new blood.And have it be unabashedly heterosexual.
>Nepo-hiring goes wellEllen Fanning>Nepo-hiring goes wrong RWBY
>>151409230Why the fuck is your quote formatted like that
>>151408887That is the reason that everyone was hired. None of them were hired for actual skill. Monty's best skill wasn't even animation it was choreography. All of the VA's were just hired because they were already there and part of the company, ditto the subanimators, and Williams and daughter for the music. RT was just a company built out of nothing but hiring vaguely skilled people who were friends.Monty had no skill for writing or plot. He came up with neat ideas for fight scenes, half the time not even ones that made any fucking sense (see: JNPR vs Raven) and with a complete disregard for any sort of continuity (how the fuck did he imagine grimm being a threat when his first trailer idea was "lol a 13 year old fights dozens of beos at once without a scratch on her or even a hint of fear"?). He had no idea how to actually make any sort of story, just big anime reveals like "silver eyes shoot anti-grimm lasers!", "the voice over is actually the bad guy!", or "ozpin dies but then is a force ghost", and fight concepts so when he was greenlit for the show being a thing, he went to Miles and Kerry, who passed as RT's version of "writers" and asked them to actually make it a narrative. It's the reason why the trailer dialogue is so fucking cringe but then the first season is at least bearable.>>151408888I feel like you idiots don't understand how little Monty thought of anything beyond "cool fight". He did not even think of the maidens until AFTER VOLUME TWO. Jeff Williams (the music guy) was the one who suggest Ruby's mom be dead because Monty hadn't even bothered to think of who was in the grave when he made the first verison of the Red trailer.
>the show ended with /ourgoddess/ winningKneel.
Jaune should've gotten rid of Crocea Mors earlier on and make an Aura sword like in imyoshi's Silver. It'd be like Kuwabara. And since his semblance works like One for All, he can do some real cool shit with it.
>>151409331So RWBY is the animated version of the Angry Video Game Nerd movie?
>>151409187>Soul Eater>Yu Yu Hakusho>SpyXFamily>Kingdom Hearts manga>Solo Leveling>The Frontier Lord Begins with Zero Subjects
>>151409512Read and watched.Read and watched.Only watched 1 season and read like 80 chapters. I don't wanna watch any further now that I've learned A1 Pictures made it. Regret reading that manga, I have a deep well of cringe associated with it. Plus I really really want to play KH one of these days but I don't own a PS2.I'm not watching narou garbage unless it's at least as good as Konosuba.Never heard of it, I assume it's yet another webtoon/narou.
>>151407329Not really sure the origins are one to one, but alot of RWBY's origin myth seems inspired by the Destiny unveiling lore book (which was probably inspired by some other science fantasy media).
>>151409747Destiny was pulling from the same source material Bungie used for Marathon: the clash between Chaos and Order/Law found within Michael Moorcock's Eternal Champion cycle. Warhammer, D&D, Berserk, AOT, and SMT have all pulled from Moorcock in this way.
>>151409610>Never heard of it, I assume it's yet another webtoon/narou.It's a manga based on a light novel series.
>>151409869I don't speak Japanese. Rec me something I can read.And also don't rec me narous unless they're as good or better than Konosuba.
>>151409905>I don't speak Japanese. Rec me something I can read.Are you stupid? Look at the cover. It's English.
>>151409939But it started as a light novel. If I don't read the original material, I'll be hanged for treason against the Weeaboo Song:"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but I will always be one step ahead of you...BECAUSE I READ THE MANGA."
Rebooting is a stupid idea. It wouldn't take much to finish things with two more volumes. Why would anyone want to watch a reboot that has no guarantee to finish either? And it's not a budget thing, it's a shitty management thing.
>>151407247>started off goodRWBY was never good. >became a long sequence of Dragon Ball Z style shonen-esque fight scenes instead of a story.This isn’t slightly true, but if it had become that it’d be significantly better than the smoldering pile of shit it is now.
I don't wanna make my own blog. I wanna go on a forum and blog so that people have no choice but to pay attention to me.
If they do reboot RWBY, they should turn Ruby into a depressed alcoholic from that one guy's au art.
>>151410233Animation is expensive. It'd be more cost effective to keep reprinting the RWBY manga instead of making anything new.
>>151410233No, continuing would be a much more stupid idea. The IP should have stayed dead.
>>151410557>The IP should have stayed dead.But how would we get any new hentai kino if rwby stays dead?
I really thought Blake would end up being my favorite girl by the end, but it really did end up just being Ruby.
>>151410552They'll invest in manga/LN and then advertise it via anime like they do with everything else.I will not be surprised if Vol10 is done by a Jap studio.Whether it be Studio Orange or Toei.Western animation is too expensive for RWBY.>>151410696Agreed.
>>151410767Fuck it, I'm gonna write (read) Ruby x reader fics.
>>151410770On second thought, I don't mind if Viz wants to continue the series as long as a Jap studio fully handles it. And for God's sake, never let Kerry and his friends touch the series again. Or better, Viz should've fired the entire CRWBY since they're like parasites that won't go away.
Weiss will remain best girl for all of time now
>>151410891THERE'S SO MUCH LESBIAN SMUTI WANTED VANILLA STRAIGHT ROMANCE
>>151409187>Kung fu wa>shasha and milo>dinoster quantum heroes
>>151398525that's fine winter is for me anyways
>Weiss and Blake should've been partners.>Blake is still White Fang and she came to Beacon to assassinate Weiss.>Blake Belladonna isn't her real name.It's Eva Khan
>>151410891Personally I would prefer this.
>>151408757monty was a big part of the reason the first 3 seasons had such disjointed writingapparently monty had a nasty habit of coming up with a cool fight and leaving the writers to scramble to actually make it fitthis is why the last fight of season 1 barely included any of rwby, and was mostly a fight between the villain and two characters who were introduced the episode before. Frankly monty should have been given a director to manage him, he should have brought on others who actually knew the stories he was aping (did you know that neither miles or kerry watched much anime at all before they were brought on to do an anime inspired show? Monty gave them like 8 shonens and told them to watch them as homework) Miles' character writing was much better in rvb than it was in rwby, so he evidently needed someone holding the reigns too
>>151396829I'd be leaning more towards this, to be honest, but I'd try to keep most of the voice actors if possible, the fans like them. But yeah, it's best to just learn from their mistakes, change what must be changed, avoid the previous mistakes, and reboot it all.The series has amazing potential, they can do so much with it, they just need to get a grip (and good writers that KNOW how to write a decent action/fantasy anime).
what is it about this poorly made internet cartoon that's so compelling to you lot
>>151411258Blake being made into a princess was so hilariously dumb of an idea that said it's fucking insane that weiss had like zero connection to the white fang plot
>>151411267
>>151411267Nah, we're getting Tai x Willow in Vacuo so Weiss can learn the horror of legally being Ruby and Yang's sister.
>>151411363Qrow x Willow is the clear choice there
>>151408028>Where's this from?It appears to be unused promotional material due to V10 being cancelled. I asked if they had more V10 art, but they only shared that pic. A callback to pic-related, it seems.
>>151411258>>151411343>Weiss and Blake should've been partners.They should have just made mono the romantic pairing instead of bb. It was a much better progression of both of their storylines and also it would have made Adam's entire plotline much better.
>>151411407why do yuriniggers always want weiss to be gay
>>151411343blame Miles, he was salty over Arryn dumping him for Adam's VA (who she then broke up with to date a CW actor who was a prick to her). RWBY isn't really a story moved by Ruby, Weiss, or Yang's choices as much as it is Jaune and Blake driving the plot...mainly because Monty liked catgirls and had "big plans" for Jaune, and Miles was biased towards whoever Arryn voiced.
>>151411436>Arryn dumping him for Adam's VAI don't think that happened
>>151411378It could be for a manga. It's not from Sheena's posts. Already checked. Maybe Erin shared it.
Is there a V10 JNOR tease? If RWBY and Neo got one, JNOR must also have new designs by now.
>>151407189Where's the new Neo from?
>>151411332>I'd try to keep most of the voice actors if possibleI'd recast. I'd want Ruby to sound more like this https://youtu.be/plj0gH85-gY?si=dAeGnbouqTGanCkr >the fans like themThe newcomers won't.
>>151411414delusionWeiss is by far the straightest RWBY and has been since almost the start
>>151411598Not yetNeo didn't get teased anything she basically dead nowRWBY are slightly teased for their outfits as you saw by that one image
>>151411693Where did you get this? >>151397767
>>151411778Neo is basically dead at the end of Volume 9 though so its not art for Volume 10
>>151411919Why do you keep evading the question? Where did you get it from? If you are answering me, it's because you have an idea where this is from. Is it Sheena, Erin, or someone else's? Are you a leaker?
>>151411949If he won't answer, then assume it's AIslop.
>>151411949What? I didn't post that
Fuck Menagerie and fuck Mistral. Should've went full legally distinct FF7 and time skipped their asses to not-Midgar.
>>151411991AI would've fucked up some details, such as the eyes or hair strands, and Google Lens doesn't work on it. I thought it was Erin artwork, but...>>151412018Then, why did you keep answering me over and over!?
I'm just mad we never got an evil hacked Penny fight. What are we even here for if it's not anime girls hitting each other?
>>151412072AI always misses Weiss's scar.
Maybe it's not Erin after all.
>>151412255
I just noticed that not even Erin Winn makes up her mind about which of Neo's eyes is the pink one.
>>151412087>I'm just mad we never got an evil hacked Penny fight.There's one in Imyoshi's Silver.
>>151400296>>151400407>Grimm and Salem have heavy moon associations>The moon is notably shattered>Grimm, despite mimicking regular life, only attack sentient beings, otherwise being harmless>almost as if they have a vendetta against sentienceHOWHOW DO YOU MISS THE OBVIOUS LAYUP OF GRIMM BEING FROM THE MOON
>>151411991AIslop doesn't have enough SOUL to make Neo wear Roman's emblem.>>151412325Her pink eye is the left one because Monty said so.
>>151395480fpbp. They're going to reboot/soft reboot it inevitably, might as well see what inept faggy ending Kerry Shawcross has for it in the final season.
>>151395459Finish the series as-is.Then do something like what Gurren Lagann did. Making a series of movies that take the original series and hone it to the core aspects with a consistent throughline so that all the ideas become much better tied together while cutting away a bunch of chaff.
>>151412494>Making a series of movies that take the original series and hone it to the core aspects with a consistent throughline so that all the ideas become much better tied together while cutting away a bunch of chaff.So movies that just cover the Beacon era with Pyrrha and Roman surviving, while Cinder dies, and Salem never enters the plot?
>>151412449Volume 10 wouldn't be the final volume though
Was Cinder ever actually menacing?

>>151412548>wonder what happened to himYou'll have to be a bit more specific. I can count 5 different such projects off the top of my head.
>>151409331>"the voice over is actually the bad guy!"I'll admit that one was actually really fucking good and got me.Wasn't expecting Cortana's narration from the WoR shorts to reveal she's actually Satan.
>>151405524urk, volume 7 looks are repulsive.
>>151412524No, just smexy.
>>151412610this one https://youtu.be/XC2hBCvi-roWait, FIVE Different projects????
>>151411676My favorite thing is how the crew of the show constantly shit-talked Whiterose as a ship and said it would never happen.Back when the company had the guts to deny a ship and not give in like they did to the BB nuts.
>>151412607>are the little ones their daughters?Nope, projections of Weiss's mind about all the childhood feelings she bottled up
>>151412641>said it would never happenWell at least they have been consistent there
>>151412548>PicI bet Remnant would have been saved if you gave the protagonist role to Roman and Neo fucking shit up to get some fat sacks of cash.
>>151412255>>151412308I think I figured out where the top image comes from. But first, I need to confirm something. The thing in her left ponytail is suspicious.
Shit, I had a hunch but it's impossible to tell what's on the left ponytail even with an editing software. I'm just sure that isn't Roman's emblem.
>>151412505No, as that approach is still full series rather than just "only X part was good, so only doing that".Think more along the lines of the intro fight to the dust shop and interrogation jumps to the launching from the cliff. Skip the whole Jaune sneaking in stuff to immediately jump to Blake running off, condense dock fight and paladin fights vs Torchwick, Team RWBY skips out on the Vytal Festival in favor of Mountain Glenn which immediately cascades into the Fall of Beacon rather than being sealed. There's movie 1, most focus on Blake after the initial team forming up, though that time needed would have her spotlight spill over into 2.Movie 2 the season 4-5 and elements of 6 that can be reconfigured to a different spot like Adam's killing gets cut down to Menagerie, Raven/Spring Maiden, and Mistral Academy fight with Adam dying there. Most focus will be on Yang here.Movie 3, cover rest of 6 and going through 8. Cut the election and secrecy plot, team RWBY immediately tells Ironwood the whole Salem immortality and right at that moment, Watts makes his move so Ironwood immediately escalates. Most focus on Weiss for this one, of course.Movie 4, Ever After and however long the endgame against Salem goes for. Specically the Neo doing a trauma conga line on Ruby, and making it clear the Brothers are absolute dicks that shouldn't be called back for first half, and then condensing all the fight against Salem for the second half Ruby gets the focus here, of course.If I had to give a brief summary, we will be escaping the dumb moments these parts had by being relentless and giving no downtime for them to exist in.
>>151412641Ask me how I know you started watching in volume 4.
>>151413036nta, how did you know, Sherlock?
>>151412910>Shit, I had a hunch but it's impossible to tell what's on the left ponytail even with an editing software. I'm just sure that isn't Roman's emblem.
>>151405524>Weiss turning blue>Yang losing almost all her Yellow>Blake turning lavender
>>151408790He had 3 seasons making a show that originally RT didn't want to make where he had to build all his assets and most of his animation team from near scratch while also trying to teach the two dumbfucks he was saddled with how to write and what an anime was, with a shoe string budget and a stack of favors.
>>151411267Still the best thing we ever did in those threads I think.
>>151411341It started out with "cool fights, hot girls, good music, and the guy making it when you listen to the commentaries actually seems to have some real vision." and then said guy fucking died and we're still seething because of how it turns out all those schizo talks about MKEK basically turning the show into their own personal jerkoff session and cash cow at the cost of its quality were entirely correct.
If MKEK wants to save this show while keeping the absolutely abysmal canon intact in its entirety they should cut their losses, realize WBY are worthless characters, put them off of the side, and just have Ruby and Jaune act as dual protagonists for the rest of the series. To be clear I’m not saying that Ruby is much better than WBY as a character (He’ll she might even be worse) but she gets to stay relevant because she can act as the series cute mascot while Jaune gets the somewhat interesting storylines.
>>151413050Because the cast and crew were adamant shippers the first three volumes, so involved they were literally helping the fandom come up with ship names, and the only """""shit-talking"""" White Rose had was Kara not liking it because she thought Weiss was too mean for Ruby. It's weird how /co/ has just forgotten that even here on /co/, for the first three volumes, dyke shit was the dominant force of the fandom and Jaunefags were mocked. Like these weren't the same threads that started May Zedong hiding from gay thoughts memes.
>>151413372Shut the fuck up if MKEK are based they will kill off Ruby immediately
>>151413408Lindsay already shipped NND by Volume 2 faggot so you're a liar. This is exclusively Volume 1 you are talking about. Kara also didn't care for it (obviously) but just because dykes couldn't help themselves in all corners of the internet doesn't mean what he said is untrue.
>>151412034I've never played Final Fantasy 7, but this image makes me want to go there to run a covert operation to kill the reigning power structure of that city.
>>151413186Someone really should've redrew this but with Jaune and Weiss.
>>151411407>Gives Weiss's racism arc an actual resolution>Gets Weiss involved in the WF plot and possibly causes her to investigate the SDC's shadier dealings when she sees Adam's scar>Makes Adam come off as pissed Blake betrayed the WF for the SDC instead of an edgy incelI'd say we were robbed of kino but MKEK would have fucked it up either way. >>151411414Because it's more narratively interesting. It's not like Weiss being straight added much to the story.>Her infatuation with Neptune lasted a fraction of one season, and mostly served to develop Jaune's character by having him let get over his crush on Weiss >Her thinking old Jaune was hot was a gagThe former doesn't even require Weiss to be straight anyway, since we're talking about Monochrome you could just as easily have Jaune talk to Blake about being afraid to dance because she's a self-conscious introvert. So really all you lose is a gag moment that I'm pretty sure most people here only like because they can use it to dunk on "yurifags"If you think the racism subplot just shouldn't exist, Weiss should never have been racist, and Blake should have an entirely different backstory, fine. But at that point you're basically rewriting the show, so you could make whatever pairing you wanted fit the story.
>>151413599It's not more narratively interesting though. West side stories are fucking boring and so is this forced attempt at making Weiss confirm to shitty Yuri ideals which WR has attempted for years and years now. Weiss doesn't need expansion of the racism arc in Volume 1 either, she just needs more work in Atlas. She is by far the best character in team RWBY so you're just trying to effectively drag her down with Blake's garbage by saying this. Or Adam's, both are bad.Also regardless of what you say the dance arc in Volume 2 developed Pyrrha, Jaune and Weiss as characters substantively so that's already better than whatever forced drama you are appealing to here. Also the irony of claiming that anyone who responds to you is rewriting the show while you are in fact seething about how the show is and how Weiss is fucking super straight is hella ironic.
>>151413599Tbh, Weiss's racism only last for like one volume. End of volume 1 was just basically her warming up with Blake.
>>151413676He's just trying to find retarded reasons to force Weiss to be gay like the others, its the usual bullshit. Weiss doesn't need to be involved in the Faunus mess, the Faunus mess was already trash with Weiss's minimal involvement as it was. Dragging down the best developed team RWBY character - even after she got shafted for Volumes 7-8 which is a separate thing to the faunus stuff as well - is already a gigantic sin to consider.It's also telling he uses the usual line of calling Weiss having the hots for Jaune "just a gag." This is the usual yurinigger defense so it is 100% likely its not somebody actually appealing for narrative reasons but because they wish their ship had happened.
>>151413599I don't like the SDC brand on his face. I think it would've been cooler if he had a robotic eye with Schnee family logo replacing the pupil, and it was some sort of horrible device that gave electric shocks directly to the brain of the slave. It would literally be what Weiss' dad has twisted the Schnee family legacy into staring back at us.
>>151413702But, I like yuri tho. I just don't agree with his racism arc opinion.
>>151413737Regardless the response screams its a yurinigger making up reasons to downgrade a good character with involvement in the WORST story arc of the entire story as somehow a positive thing that proves she should be gay.
>>151413728I think the brand's a good idea. Imagine Walmart forced you into slavery and literally seared their logo into your face, so that whenever you looked into the mirror you had to see their shitty branding.It's not like it's a cool, aesthetic scar. It's a permanent tattoo cauterized over his eye. He has every reason to hate them. He probably really liked his face before that, now he can't even look in the mirror. If it was a robotic eye he could just close it.
>>151413599One time at a boring job I was just brainstorming random ideas for how I would change things in some shows.One of them was a change to the Adam encounter at the end of Volume 6.All four of the girls are there to confront him.He starts out not hostile, but diplomatic, trying to form an alliance against Salem.He'll try to appeal to each of them individually. Blake's sense of justice, if your grudge gets in the way of saving lives, then how are you any better. Yang, he'd apologize sincerely to, but still claim that in an active war, combatants don't have the freedom to consider their enemies' lives after battle, she's permanently injured plenty of soldiers in her time too.Weiss however would be different. He'd take off his mask to show the scar, and Weiss would recognize him. Then comes the backstory.When Adam was young, he'd sneak around the houses of the rich in Atlas in hopes of finding food or valuables. One night, he heard crying out of a window. It was Weiss after her parents were angry with her. He told her stories and joked with her to cheer her up. She'd sneak out some food to help him.As implied in Mirror Mirror part 2, Weiss was all but forbidden from having friendships because of her parents and their controlling nature. One day, she was called into the entry hall to find Adam in cuffs and her father looking angry. He was caught stealing from the mansion. Jacques asks if she knows this faunus, and out of fear she says she does not. "Well in that case-" he takes the branding iron out of the fire and sticks it to Adam's face. Weiss turns and runs, but still hears his screams.it's been years, so I'm not sure I had all the details ironed out, or even remember if I ever did. I'm not going to write it as fanfic, but I'll keep in mind the idea for something else I want to create.
>>151413819That just sounds like you sucking off Adam because even in the nicest interpretations of him he would still be hostile to RWBY in Volume 6 and they would be hostile to him. Ignoring the dumb Weiss backstory you could have just added with Winter instead who is actually his age.
>>151413800That could easily be fixed by having the eyelids on that side removed (for an extra layer of cruelty). Thought, I'd take the brand being the Schnee symbol instead of SDC. More striking, ya know?
Everyone just wants to legitimize their own RWBY fanfiction in the end.
>>151413834yeah, I didn't have the space to write it, but even after this, the altercation still ends in a fight. He's only after the protection of the Faunus, and so someone trying to end all life would still be his concern. He's still a villain, but more like how he's shown in the first two volumes rather than what they did with him later on. I thought that comes across by how he's only sorry to Yang after he wants something from her, and implies that he'd do it again if they stayed on opposite sides.Plus, Adam doesn't have to be a similar age to Weiss to make the story work. He could still be her friend even if he's much older than her.
>>151413929My RWBY fanfiction involves hypnosis and breast expansion
>>151413929>implying the whole damn show isn't fanfiction of a handful of anime with some loose connections to fairy tales.
>>151409257You have to help the Predator.
>>151395459>RWBY posting on /co/ >in this day and ageJust post on double chan, you have an entire BOARD for this shit.
>>151414321
>>151413656>the dance arc in Volume 2 developed Pyrrha, Jaune and Weiss as characters substantivelyPyrrha yes, Jaune yes, Weiss no.Pyrrha shows she's willing to put Jaune's happiness above her own just like Jaune did with Weiss, Jaune and Pyrrha get closer, and even Neptune has a 5 minute arc about getting over himself. Weiss doesn't have any meaningful change. She liked Neptune, got rejected, and then got unrejected because Jaune talked to Neptune. All that changed was she softened on Jaune but her hating him was always a meme, she just didn't want to date him. >>151413676>Weiss's racism only last for like one volumeBecause they lazily offscreened it. It should have been fleshed out more. >>151413702>Weiss doesn't need to be involved in the Faunus messAdam literally has her family's company logo branded on his face. Sure it was a dumb 11th hour reveal that the writers backpedaled on, but it's still fucking stupid Adam literally never even interacted with a Schnee. >the best developed team RWBY characterThat's really a "winner by default" competition to be fair. Blake's defining character moment happened in a trailer. Ruby's development as a leader happens offscreen. Watching the entire series makes you wonder if Yang is bipolar. RWBY is not written well. >It's also telling he uses the usual line of calling Weiss having the hots for Jaune "just a gag."It's a wacky interjection with the intention of being humorous. It's quite literally a gag. >>151413763Again, I literally said if you think the racism arc sucks and should be scrapped completely then fine. But acting like tweaking a characters sexuality that was plot-relevant for maybe an hour over the course of the series is some cardinal sin, then you're the same type of person as the yurifags you screech about.
>>151414477>>151413599Can't argue with those digits
>>151414321no
>>151414630I wish they had shown Raven's tits more in the showFor some reason they hide them even though she should have bigger ones than Yang even
I will forever be upset it died on a fucking filler volume.The only good thing to come out of vol 9 were the homophobic Ruby memes.
>>151414651Volume 9 was the best volume since 3 though
>>151414656100%The only problem is it's a slog in the beginning because Jaune isn't around.
>>151414688Jaune turning into a crazy old man was neat.Also loved how he and that fucking cat seemed to have a more antagonistic hatred towards each other more than he did for Cinder lmao
>>151414726We were robbed of Young RK Jaune though.Can't believe they thought reverting him back to banana hair was a good idea.
>>151414748I assume he will get a redesign in V10 anyways
>>151414748I'm sad he lost the rusted armor as well.It was a cool look for him.
>>151414651They shouldn't have made a filler volume to begin with. It's the height of arrogance.
>>151414726>Also loved how he and that fucking cat seemed to have a more antagonistic hatred towards each other more than he did for Cinder lmaoRuby ate basically that entire plotline because Jaune wasn't allowed to have character arcs or importance outside of being a walking bucket of white out to erase Ruby's mistakes so that's not surprising.
>>151414816especially when they made said filler volume a Crunchyroll exclusive, so fans who were subscribed to RT website couldn't even watch it.
>>151414688True although Volume 9 even in the beginning is nice in some ways, a lot better design work and interesting things going on compared to the V8 slog at least
Bnuuy sexo.
>>151414640Raven's a chestlet due to bandit malnutrition.Yang is bigger.
>>151415001>show bunnygirl getting bullied>turns out she's a second year and could have easily kicked Cardin's assWhy'd she allow it?was it a fetish thing for her?
>>151415022
>>151415022>>turns out she's a second year and could have easily kicked Cardin's asswhat makes you say that?She's not exactly the best fighter. From the looks of it, she needs to be using her camera to activate her semblance of mimicking other fighting styles.The fact that she apparently only has to save her camera to use at the right time (and the city being flooded with Grimm is according to Coco, not the right time) means she's pretty close to useless.Why is she even there?
>>151415048>she needs to be using her camera to activate her semblance of mimicking other fighting styles>The fact that she apparently only has to save her camera to use at the right time (and the city being flooded with Grimm is according to Coco, not the right time) means she's pretty close to uselessIncorrect, she only uses the camera to basically print out hard-light copies of weapons, her semblance works just fine without the camera, just don't expect it to be effective with a fighting style that hinges on a specific weapon (like Ruby)
>>151414881That whole Crunchyroll thing was because they weren't getting the funding from WB anymore, and needed another backer.
>>151415086So really, she should have been best friends with Yang since her weapons are secondary as long as you don't try to hit things from afar.Did she even know Yang at that point though?I'm not denying that this whole thing was pretty poorly planned, but it's not like you can't make it make sense with some reasonable enough inferences.Or just not caring, that's probably what most people do.
>>151413158>he had to build all his assets and most of his animation team from near scratchUsing shitty software that wasn't meant to do the things he wanted it to do, fucking over the other animators who had real experience with actual animation software. Dillon Gu used Blender before he was forced to use Poser. The dumbass didn't even know what nude models were, and got pissed at a fan for suggesting it and accused him of just wanting porn. Because of him, they had to make new models every time the characters had different outfits, wasting resources. And that was the case until later in the show's run. Work smarter, not harder. Like another anon said, he wasn't an animator but a choreographer.>while also trying to teach the two dumbfucks he was saddled with how to write and what an anime wasYou mean his friends. Monty chose those 2 to write. He just told them to watch a handful of anime without helping them understand it. Quit riding the guy's dick.
Real shit.
>>151413834>Ignoring the dumb Weiss backstory you could have just added with Winter instead who is actually his age.Winter/Weiss getting away with it and Adam getting killed anyway would be on-brand with canon. Pussy privlege and all.
>>151407951>>151395883Ruby got better after Maka duct taped her bissected body back together
>>151414477>that was plot-relevant for maybe an hour over the course of the seriesLol, how?
>>151415315You die in Soul Eater, you die for real. Ruby's dead. People can't be revived as-is, only as an undead. She'd have to be brought back as a zombie by Stein to still be Ruby. But she ain't gonna look so pretty.>>151415359Not everyone's deluded with headcanon, my guy.
>>151407166>>151401532>dig themselves outcome on, no seriously COME ON. They have no plan, they'd been writing each volume past 3 by the seat of their pants. They were never going to dig themselves out of jackshit. You guys can't possibly still have faith in Miles and Kerry.
>>151415175>Because of him, they had to make new models every time the characters had different outfits, wasting resources.To be fair, they still don't use nude 3D models for no real reason.
>>151406382They lean too hard into the browns, let her wear more yellow and purple jeez.
>>151415415Maybe they're worried they'll get leaked, and it'll end up being an Overwatch situation.Of course, there already are decent models for those characters, but still.
>>151408074I don't disagree, but past 20 you just have to let people be responsible for themselves. At 23, Winter can get with whichever grown adult she wants. It's ridiculous to act like a military officer is incapable of taking care of themselves, it's not being sensible it's just demeaning.
>>151414748He should have stayed an old man
>>151415315Nah, Maka just fetched Ruby's reboot card once the DB team got done shooting. They're actually good friends.
>>151415145Eh, it's probably not a good idea to befriend (or observe rather, she doesn't need good relations to proc her semblance, just observation) Yang early on, since her fighting style then involved getting hit a lot then dishing shit back. Velvet can't copy Burn, so early Yang's style would fuck her over.
>>151400296>It's pretty interesting you mention that because "Salem is a humanoid Grimm" was not only a theory floated around after V3, but it's been speculated that Salem may have originally been intended to be an alienI mean, yeah. She's literally Jenovah from FF7 lol.People tend to forget just how much stuff RWBY gets from PS1 era FF but none of the storytelling techniques.
Do you know what Salem needs? Sleeper agents. Humans and faunus who can suddenly transform into grimms.
>>151415673Yang always seemed to me to be the weakest character; his entire strategy is based on not dying on the first turn.
>>151415001Wasn't her model literally just a retextured Reisen MMD model with the ears swapped out for straighter ones
>>151415838I mean if the Grimms come from the moon and Salem is Princess Kag this would have made sense
Weiss' ass should have gotten progressively bigger over the course of the show.
Who let you all out of /trash/?
>>151415022As funny as the fetish thing is, the most likely answer is that, having come from Atlas iirc, Velvet has been taught at a young age to be proper and not act out to not let people dismiss her as an animal. She was probably worried that getting physical would make her look like a the faunus equivalent to being labeled a coon, and not encourage more racists to bother her for a reaction.That's my guess anyway, the writers have never exactly been all that good at writing bout anything surrounding the Faunus.
>>151416052
>>151416005I choose to believe it did
>>151407610Well she would just not be a villain anymore since Kaguya thinks immortality rocks and wouldn't want to die, and she doesn't have anything against humanity. Assuming we're porting over the Lunarians too I could see the Grimm being a reinterpretation of that one line of dialogue Kaguya says in Th8 >"Heh heh. We of the moon turned some on the Earth into monsters, to regulate the Earthlings' impurity."Making the actual villains be the Lunarians pissed someone shot their homeworld and wiped most of them out and retaliating by cranking up the were-rays to 11 to make a bunch of monsters to wipe out humanity without touching them. So as for Oz he'd likely have to be replaced too, and an obvious candidate would be Mokou not for yurishit (i'm actually pretty against shipping them together as popular as it is) but it would result in a twist that the battle between Oz / Mokou and Salem / Kaguya would instead just be two immortals having an incredibly petty eternal grudge match and using the morties around them as pawns distracting them from the actual threat of the Lunarians which would suck though I guess that would wrap back around to Kaguya becoming the villain again alongside Mokou / OzThis would also mean the actual big bad of the series after those two are defeated would probably be Watatsuki no Toyohime
>>151412521I doubt they'll get greenlit for a more than one season. I had heard the gossip on here they were getting one season to wrap it all up. I mean, ya, it would be better for the story, but it's whatever.
>>151416229I doubt the showrunners would accept that
>>151404917>When you're the designated driver and your idiot fucknut friends have really done it this time
>>151416223>Making the actual villains be the Lunarians pissed someone shot their homeworld and wiped most of them out and retaliating by cranking up the were-rays to 11 to make a bunch of monsters to wipe out humanity without touching themNah I say flip these around. The Lunarians created the Grimm to wipe the humans and eventually leave the earth free of impurity so they can come down to claim it. This pissed off old humanity enough when they figured out what happened that they destroyed the moon in retaliation. The Lunarians were wiped by whatever the old humans used to destroy the moon, the old humans were eventually wiped by the initial Grimm, much more powerful than the later Grimm because the first couple generations were empowered by the Lunarians.This leaves Kaguya and Mokou as the only two left that remember the old civilizations, continuing their long held grudge via constant proxy wars in the world their people left broken.End game RWBY is the protags realizing both immortals are assholes and tossing them in a black hole.
>>151416231Yes, but Viz owns the IP now. They have full authority to cancel the series if it doesn't sell. Kerry can't do shit about it.
>>151416231Lol, not to be a schizo but are you a social media agent with how quickly you responded? It's not really up to Kerry and whatever the remainder of the RT staff want. This is a sweetheart deal and unless they somehow writer their asses off and produce out of nowhere gold, they're not gonna be asked back several years after the finale for the sequel/reboot/videogames. I'm not even saying that as a hater, even though I am one. I'd want them to have 2-3, even 4 seasons to wrap up the story so it doesn't feel rushed. Maybe since the office would be slightly less stressed they'd actually not write shit for the first time in a decade.
>>151416284No I just woke up
>>151408339Jesus Christ
>>151415423>Maybe they're worried they'll get leaked, and it'll end up being an Overwatch situation.....why would anyone care about that? That's autistic.
Remnant: >Oh noes! The Grimm keep getting past our walls! Whatever shall we do?Terra:>Yeah, we invented mobile cities during the Industrial Revolution so they can drive around and avoid localised apocalypses. Fuck you.
>>151416231>I doubt the showrunners would accept thatThey should have thought about that and saved up to buy the IP themselves.But they didn't, and now VIZ decides everything.
>>151408757Rewatching season 3, the one he worked on but died, there's a noticeable uptick in the episodes just being fights for the runtime. I'm gonna rewatch 1 and 2 sometime to check, but I remember rewatching season 3 earlier this year and being shocked at how it was just fights.Regardless of if my theory is true that season 3 was FUCKED and they even had Monty for half the thing, I have always maintained that Monty made the writing cohesive no matter what the revisionists want to say. There's a reason after 3 the plot largely became "The characters walk and talk, walk and talk.The characters sit in here and talk about the plot. Team RWBY and JNR sit on the sidelines. Blake and Weiss don't even have fucking arcs after Adam and Atlas. Bumblebee." The story is thrown at you, you're not watching a show.
>>151416259>>151416284>>151416371why are you guys convinced VIZ will follow your opinion instead of the opinion of the showrunners who they actually work withi don't think VIZ cares about what people here think at all
>>151416258I kinda like that, up the actual villain factor of both Kaguya and Mokou. Does also kinda remind me of RvB that moment when everyone realises Epsilon and Carolina are dicks and leaves them
>>151416288Cha. Not trying to be schizo, it's just we're now learning on 4chan that companies send shills on here, and it's so pointless. We call them niggers and send them back to normieland where they can get back to upholding clownworld.
>show was good when it was just making up excuses to have cool fight scenes>show became complete garbage when it became more writer/lore focusedcrazy how the thing that keeps plaguing modern cartoons ruined rwby
>>151416390Because the rights for RWBY were a liquidation sale. It's a pr thing that Viz wants Kerry to have a heavy say in RWBY's finale. They're on some level on the Viz payroll but they can be fired at any time because Vic doesn't give a fuck about them. I'm not saying it's that dour, I'm saying if the remnants of RT's yuppie workfoce cause a stink they're just gonna axed. Viz probably has a writing overseer or two to keep an eye on the plot as well if they think it's retarded.
>>151416451I don't agree with this take. We can agree to disagree, it's just that RT couldn't write the exposition in a /comfy/ way. That was the problem of the later seasons. It didn't flow. As well as, in hindsight, they needed to stay at Beacon wayyyy longer than they did.
>>151416451I can't think of any other example of this other than adventure time
>>151416390>why are you guys convinced VIZ will follow your opinion instead of the opinion of the showrunners who they actually work withBecause those showrunners have never managed to turn a profit with RWBY.They didn't make a profit for Warner, they didn't make a profit for Crunchyroll.Obviously, VIZ knows this, and they're not a company that likes to lose money.
>>151415966Reisen will also be bred.
Wait does Ruby actually have big tits? I swear I never noticed because of just how big other characters are.
>>151416872I mean she is Yang's half sister.
>>151416905This implies Tai has big tit genes.
>>151414688>>151414726Jaune should've never fallen into the Ever After. It was a mistake and the Volume should've focused entirely on Team RWBY. Weiss could've taken his role so she has an actual arc of her own in Volume 9. Jaune just (again) steals screentime and relevance from the main characters.
>>151416451Turns out most people don't care about the lore shit except nerds. Sticking to its battle shonen roots over trying to go Final Fantasy and ATLA could've saved it. Nothing wrong with popcorn fiction. Most people like it for a reason.>>151416934>the Volume should've focused entirely on Team RWBYEw no.>Jaune just (again) steals screentime and relevance from the main characters.Bro, why would you wanna see more of them? They suck.
>>151416915This was pretty much already a thing iirc. Tai Genes are what give his daughters fat titties. Meanwhile Summer and Raven were both flatties.
The two paths an actual, non-crossover, RWBY game should take. Let's pretend what they've released so far doesn't count (the really don't).
>>151417095The problem is fighting games don't get released anymore unless they are a contender for being a EVO regular for the next couple of years. Fighting games are kind of dead outside of the big ones.
>>151417095The idea of a RWBY cinematic action game put into my mind a funny image of a fight between Yang and Raven as Asura vs Augus.
>>151407761late as fuck reply but the majority of these are in fact more competently written, especially given what they set out to do, than RWBY. Perhaps only DMC is generally worse, and even that one at least manages to be consistently cool if nothing else.
>>151417332RWBY is better than AOT but it's not saying much at all. Or maybe it's more accurate to say that AOT has higher highs but much lower lows.
>>151417332>Perhaps only DMC is generally worse, and even that one at least manages to be consistently cool if nothing else.https://youtu.be/PK6UaPnRYcc?si=2uL1p9OpVIRzXUrM
>>151416223>retaliating by cranking up the were-rays to 11 to make a bunch of monsters to wipe out humanity without touching themSo the Grimm are mutated Faunus? Maybe the Faunus themselves were made by them. Crossing human DNA with animal DNA, creating a new species. Not natural, but man-made. Imagine characters like Blake and Adam finding that out. Kind of an Ultimate X-Men situation.
>>151417095JNPR Adhoc gameFull sendDispatch even looks like RWBY's artstyle, and JNPR backstories (at least Jaune and Pyrrha) are vague enough to let Adhoc to really let it rip, and focusing on Jaune would let them focus on strategem gameplay over pure action.Also you don't have to worry about all the baggage with the main four by delegating them as side-characters. You could even do the Telltale shit of two romance options between Pyrrha and Weiss and or influencing Ren and Nora to get together.
>>151417860>You could even do the Telltale shit of two romance options between Pyrrha and WeissReplacing Weiss with Ruby makes more sense, since they're one another's first friend in Beacon.
>>151416934This is retarded, they should have removed Bumblebee if they wanted Weiss angst, but, lowkey, Weiss never really gave that big of a shit about Atlas since they left that life behind. She even says something along the lines of leaving places in ashes.Everyone she properly cared about got out.They did cut Jaune and Weiss stuff too of them talking and holding-hands.That shit was not a gag.
>>151417934It's fine either way, but they'd probably make the second girl more prickly or slightly evil like they've done in the Telltales I've played. So like, Neo or Cinder.It'd be peak either way. Give JNPR a new Adhoc villain based on Bluebeard and Gilles de Rais that acts as a potshot to Wolves Among Us and references Jaune's inspiration. Someone to parallel his worst or opposite traits that want to exploit Pyrrha's fame.
I really don't get the obsession with White Knight. Anyone questioning it, and y'all throw a temper tantrum. The show sucks and it's dead. Why care this much for canon?
>>151417942The problem with Weiss's angst about Atlas in V9 is that she literally doesn't hesitate, contest or even show any reaction to Ruby's plan to essentially destroy Atlas so everything about her being sad about it is shallow as fuck.
>>151416451People trying to push Punished Ruby still when volume 9 just showed up fucking pathetic she is in the face of any pushback or grief is fucking hilarious. This stupid bitch hasn’t even had it the worst of the main cast.
