We got another redesign of our favs!

I wasn't a huge fan of Blake's new hair at first, but it ended up growing on me. Blake's designs have always been angular, and I think that's why the short hair threw me off at first, but I like the soft curves that her hair now has.

Phoenix_mercury

Blake's weapon was repaired with kintsugi, a technique that doesn't hide the breakage but is designed to emphasize it as part of the design

Phoenix_mercury

19:20 this was the mine that ilia was talking about the collapse of that killed her parents in the Blake short

soul slicr

The Ace Operatives are all based on Aesop's (Ace Ops) fables. Elm and Vine are based off of the Elm and the Vine (duh), Harriet is based off of the titutlar hare from Tortoise and the Hare, Marrow is based off the dog from the dog and his reflection, and Clover is based off the fisherman from A fisherman's good luck.

Eric Smith

7:58 do you mean Yake and Blang?

LaviPastelQueen

This'll probably be my fav ruby rose outfit and hairstyle forever I love it so much, all their designs this vol personally I love I know some people had mixed reactions especially for wb&y

Phoenix_mercury

All of the ace-ops are literally based off of asceops fables, hare: hare and the tortoise, clover: the fisherman's luck(hence his weapon) which is a fable of a fisherman works for a long time without catching anything and prepares to leave in despair, when a large fish suddenly leaps directly into his boat, marrow: the dog and his bone a fable where a dog finds a delicious bone and carries it in his mouth to find a quiet place to enjoy it then While walking across a footbridge over a stream/river, he looks down at the water and he sees his own reflection in the water, but mistakes it for another dog carrying a seemingly larger/better bone then driven by greed, he opens his mouth to bark at the reflection to steal the other bone causing his own bone to fall out of his mouth, dropping into the water, and sinks away, leaving him with nothing i.e if only he had *stayed* with what he had, vine and elm: literally the elm and the vine, a fable where an unyielding, sturdy elm tree offers support to a self-sufficient, fruitful vines. The proud vine scorns the offer, believing it does not need the elm and prefers total independence until a severe storm with heavy wind, rain, and lightning batters the landscape. The unanchored vine is beaten down, battered, and near destruction. Humbled, the vine crawls to the elm for shelter and embraces the trunk. Together, united, they withstand future storms—the elm providing physical structure and safety, and the vine gracing the trunk with its beauty and fruit.

42:00 I love how everyone has the same reaction upon seeing Fiona for the first time lol

Taigan

I’m shocked how between the entire skittle squad it seems like none of you heard “pomp and circumstance” and immediately thought “graduation.”

Liam Gradwell

Morgan: When I ship characters, I get their names swapped around. You and Eljjah are on the same wavelength there and I love it. 🤣❤️🤍🖤💛

Taigan

@19:20. The White Fang didn’t cause it. This is where Ilia’s parents died.

BGTitan

Ep 3: While I’m not a huge fan of Weiss’s braid, I will say the new looks are pretty good. Love Yang’s bomber jacket and Ruby’s hair. Blake’s hair cut is a little stiff but it gets better. Even Qrow got a new look, finally, and he looks pretty great. Blake's weapon was fixed in a similar way to the Japanese art of kintsugi, which is when they fills the cracks in a piece of pottery with gold. A way not to hide that it was once broken and now repaired. But also, Bees, yes. lol "And who's incorporated with the color yellow?" And if you'll notice, Yang has had a purple bandana in all of her outfits. And who's secondary color has always been purple? Hehe. I love that not only does Yang get caught just staring at Blake like the dork she is, but after she’s caught she checks the nails of her METAL HAND to try and act nonchalant about it. Yang, sweetie, I love you but oh my god you’re a disaster. Jaune finally has a landing strategy!!!! I'm so proud! The mine is the mine that Ilia's parents died in which was mentioned back in the V5 Short, hence Blake's reaction. The lingered on that crate as a minor reference to Adam and how the brand over his eye looked. That's why Yang also glanced at it, they're both reminded of him. They were chasing a Gheist grimm (like poltergeist) that possesses material to find a body. We saw one back in the first episode of V4 when Team RNJR (Ranger) fought one (called a Petra Gigas since it was possessing rock), and Weiss actually fought one in her original color trailer, it was possessing a suit of armor (Arma Gigas). The ship name for Clover and Qrow is called Lucky Charms Seeing a pro Huntsman team in action is always a treat for our kids. Pretty good teamwork all around. So for our Ace Ops Aesop fable inspiration we have: -Clover – Fisherman’s Goodluck -Elm and Vine – The Elm and the Vine -Harriet – Tortoise and the Hare -Marrow – Dog’s Reflection Ep 4: “Not friends. Family.” Excuse me while I sob!! WE LOVE THE FOUND FAMILY TROPE!!! Winter really be like “I purposefully slowed the vehicle down so that I wouldn’t have to interact with Father,” and you know what? Valid. God, I love that Penny’s back. I’ve missed her. Bee Selfie!!!! Oh my god they’re so cute why!!

Mordred pendragon

Fiona is precious bean who must be protected and everyone loves her

Jittercritter

I absolutely hated Yang’s outfit at first but it really grew on me, especially since jumpsuits are often associated with mechanics and technicians in sci-fi and that’s a very underexplored part of her character. I like the idea that when she found herself in Remnant’s powerhouse of technology advancement (Atlas), she went a little bit back to her roots as a machine lover. Just a fun little headcanon to explain the outfit choice, since it’s definitely a lot different from what she usually wears. The bomber jacket is cool af though feels a lot more classically “Yang”

Mordred pendragon

a bit of clarification, Atlas and Mantle aren't two different kingdoms, as mentioned in the World of Remnant, Mantle was the kingdom before the Great War, but after the war Atlas was built around the combat school and became it's own city which became the new capital

Suplee215

Ironwood is hard to trust because modern media (and reality) has conditioned audiences to not trust heavy handed authority. Ironwood is pretty close to authoritarian. Not sure its quite there but yea. He is one of the more wholesome and straight lace version of that though. Despite the fact that he wants everyone to obey the rules and say how high when he says jump he still clearly cares for the right thing and justice.

Moonas

It doesn't matter where they had their license, they can act as official huntsman/huntress everywhere. As was said in World of Remnant, they aren't bound to 1 kingdom. This license is just like police badge proving they have right to act.

Eric Smith

Adding on to the Robyn Hill thing, Forest (the guy Tyrian killed) mentioned that her group is called the Happy Huntresses. So, yeah, Robin Hood and his Merry Men.

BrightHeart

1:00:00 Morgan seems you are a tad confused. Atlas is the name for the entire kingdom that spans the whole continent. Of Which Atlas and Mantle are both cities within said continent. Mantle is not its own separate kingdom. So their huntsman licenses would work there.

Jittercritter

If you’ll recall from the Adam short, Adam used Blake’s parents to guilt her when he felt like she was questioning him. So it makes sense that she’s the one who really understood how much that hurt Weiss, and how much of a manipulative prick Jauques is. I love the little details of this show. Two victims of abuse comforting and supporting each other will always hit me right in the feels. And yeah James is an EXCEPTIONALLY fascinating character, so much nuance!

GlitchedLetters

Blake's weapon was repaired with a technique that uses gold to mend cracks and breaks in different stuff, often made of ceramic. It's an art form that's meant to highlight the cracks through "Beauty", which in RWBY context, fits perfectly for how Yang has helped Blake fix herself and come back better, the Beauty who helps the Beast. I actually love Team JNRs change, they all look great and while Jaunes hair kinda reminds people of bananas, I think it's very charming and mature for him. I mean, he couldn't stay with the teen boy shag forever, right? Bee's moment, everyone giggle and kick your feet. As much as I love Yang, I struggle when she gets upset about people hiding secrets, considering she has told no one about Raven being the spring maiden. Qrows new outfit is actually one of my favorites in the series, and I won't admit, it made my crush on him worse. But yes, welcome to Fair Game (Clover + Qrow), I love seeing a bisexual badass like Qrow have a queer crush on Clover. I love all their weapon changes, and I love how they showcase both everyone's upgrades and the aces ops capabilities. I love how RBY supports Weiss, especially Blake taking her hand. Their relationship has come so far and I love seeing how much they all protect each other. Ugh Summer mention, it breaks my heart when Qrow talks about her. He always sounds so sad about her disappearance, and it makes me wonder if they were partners (team STRQ flashback pllllllllz we need it).

Jittercritter

Everyone loved Ruby’s because it objectively slaps

Jyoster

Oooh, 2 for 1 deal? We're eating good this month~ Of course technology is great, it gave us Penny. Like beating a dead horse with a stick, of in this case, a red amazon. Haha! It's always a treat to see reactors look at the new outfits. I love Ruby's new hair style, conveys the spunkiness that she has while still being cute. Unpopular opinion, but I very much like Weiss' new outfit, hair overflow and all. Blake's is cute, though it's hard to beat her 4-6 outfit. Yang's is... Well, don't really have any strong opinions on her's either way. Aviator style is a cool idea on paper, though it doesn't scream Yang. Pff! Reminds me of the Elijah incident where the meme of Yake and Blang was born with the name swap. Comes with its own mug and everything. Hehe, Blake's repair of Gambol Shroud having a bit of yellow in it. Very subtle, not really~ More style upgrades with team JNR. Jaune's an overall upgrade to what he used to have, though his air style is very divisive. Many people call it his "Banana Hair" Style. It's admittedly takes a while to grow on on you. Ren's is pretty sleek and stylish, the bits of pink are a great touch. Nora is rocking that bit of blue in her design, and I love the hearts on her outfit. As far as the upgrades we've seen, some are pretty cool, while others either feel repetitive or they straight up didn't make changes to them. We'll discuss them as they appear. The standout one being Jaune's, with his shield being the central focus for utility and enhancing his defensive capabilities. Not to mention doubling as a glider is a fun way to address his otherwise lack of landing strategy. Hehe, yeah. It's looking more and more like Bumblebee is being an actual thing. They're clearing showing interest in each other, but not really taking it pass that at the moment. Yeah, it's no wonder Solitas was likely the last kingdom to be established among the four, having to deal with the cold this intense. And why the arm race for technological advancement happened as fast as it did. Glad to see them address Ruby's lies. And it's warranted given everything we seen with Ironwood. Even all the way back at Beacon, we've seen how even Oz couldn't keep up with Ironwood's growing paranoia, and that was before the Fall. And it makes sense that Yang is the most against telling lies. Given her life has been filled with folks withholding info from her; her family, then Oz, now having to be on the opposite end of it. Hey now, I see that shipper in you regarding the boys. That's unfortunate that Ren seems more focused on the mission than addressing the compliment Nora gave him. And just when they were starting to open up to each other too. Appreciate the compliment Jaune, but Nora didn't want to hear it from you. Yeah, it's heavily implied that this mine is the same one Illia's parents died in, so it makes sense Blake would know this particular incident given she told her. Glad to see the Checkmate pair continue support of each other. Hehe, CRWBY's favorite thing to do. Giving us unnecessary horror elements, they love that stuff. It's a Geist Grimm, we've seen one before all the way back in Volume 4. The Centinels, one of my favorites of the Atlas variety of Grimm. And continuing the prehistoric theme of Solitas' Grimm, this time basing it of the Arthropleura [giant centipede] of the Carboniferous period [better know as the age of bugs]. The way to tell Centipede and millipedes apart is by a few factors: Millipedes have smaller legs and have many more, Millipedes hare generally rounder, and they don't have as big of mandibles. And there's one of my favorite upgrades, being Yang's little bombs. She already has close and long range options, so this is a solid middle ground. And it rewards her for playing smart. Ruby's upgrade... On paper is nice. Not having to manually switch the direction Crescent Rose's blade is facing, good idea on paper. But I feel that's one issue that didn't need resolving. Ruby has done fine without it this long, so it feels a bit redundant. Like installing an escalator for a person who could walk up stairs just fine. But then again, I can't really think of what kind of upgrade Ruby could've gotten that doesn't involve having to redesign her whole combat style. And now we got Marrow, the pupper of the group. His weapon is neat, if not a little dull looking; neat ideal to have it be a boomerang. But his Semblance is a real treat, Stay. Being able to freeze your opponent in place is a very useful semblance. Yeah, I don't blame you on coming up short regarding the Ace Ops' inspirations. They are base on lesser known stories, save for Harriet. Okay, so much to dissect with Team JNR's group in that one scene. First off, Vine. His Semblance allows him to project ara as extensions of his arms. Pretty handy~ Elm's have her literally rooting herself in place, explaining why she's running barefoot. We see the Gravity dust upgrade for Jaune's shield, which is useful for pushing foes back. Ren has grappling hooks into his weapons now, which is cool. And it addresses his limited options of closing the gap at opponents. Even if it is a little telegraph. Nora's is a subtle one, but her new upgrade allows her to detonate a grenade at the face of her hammer. Definitely helping with giving more oomph to the impact. Harriet's Semblance is pretty straight forward. Super Speed. She goes really fast. Speed bease Semblances are relatively common, though Harriet's seems to up the ante. Ah, Clover. Quite the choice of using a fishing pole indeed, mainly due to his inspiration. But his semblance is very interesting given he's with Qrow. Talk about lucky. You got Harriet's inspiration right. She is based on the Hare. Yeah, you can see how these folks happen to be one of the top of the line in the Atlas Military. Their teamwork is very impressive. They're finally putting focus on Ruby's Semblance given Harriet's comment. That ability has always been hard to define up to this point. Is it speed, teleportation? Seems we may get our answers soon. RIP Forest, only two episodes before getting killed off. A luxury regarding how many characters have been killed off in their introduction episodes. --- Heh, Thunder Thighs. Yeah, that's the main difference between the main group and the Ace Ops. The Ace Ops are strictly professional regarding their teamwork, they get along but they may as well be acquainted at best. Yeah, Ironwood isn't really concerning with his own public image. If it were any other circumstance, that would be applaud. But when you're trying to protect everyone, it wouldn't hurt to have people trust you more. People don't want to be protected by folks who they can't trust, even if they show they have good intentions. Oh great, the Mustachio Mr. Clip-on Tie himself has made his entrance. It is concerning that he's in the running for election regarding the next council seat, he's the last person who needs it. Yeah, that was a low blow bringing up Weiss' mother for your manipulation. There's no doubt there's tension between Weiss and her mom, but Weiss seems to care about her well being. The Fam! It's great to see that Weiss considers the rest of Team RWBY as found family. Nice, they got their Huntsmen licenses! Given everything they went through, it hard to remember that this was what they were all initially aiming for as their goals. Just because their licenses are affiliated with Atlas, doesn't mean they can't go to other kingdoms if they wanted to. Though given Atlas is the priorities at the moment, they don't have a reason to leave anyway. The mystery of Summer Rose gets deeper. If Oz of all people was kept in the dark, the it has some pretty big implications. Did Summer not trust him enough to allow her to see through whatever she was planning? How much did she know about the whole truth regarding Salem? Oh great... the mustaches with an ego are working together, it's a match made in hell.

Faroth

gotta love that Jaune finally got his "landing strategy" figured out Poor D&D paladin finally got those ASI increments to get good stats along his Auras of protection and finally is starting to shine and doing his job as Paladin of Redemption

Lee Goldberg

I think Morgan is under the misconception that Atlas and Mantel are completely separate kingdoms. Someone really needs to correct her about this since it changes a lot of the context for her current opinions

Faroth

gotta love the nuts and dolts moments, those 'fireflies' really love each other and are too dumb to realize it themselves

Mare

1:39 Pomp and circumstance is an idiom that means a showy, grand, and formal display or celebration filled with elaborate ceremony, tradition, and ritual. So basically like a graduation or promotion. Here in the U.S. our graduation music is literally titled "Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1 in D Major."

Saph

Blake being the first one of RBY to comfort Weiss when Jacque showed up was such a sweet moment and shows how far they've come since V1.

Faroth

7:30 ruby is a fighter:battlemaster/warlock:archfey weiss a wizard bladesinger, blake is a rogue assassin and yang a barbarian berserker The thing that makes ruby look older is the type of skirt, she use a miniskirt now instead of the puffy multilayered one from other seasons and the corsette goes up to her chest and not just the waist

Jen Cook

I seem to be in the minority regarding Yang's looks. I adore her current one. It looks badass and is honestly the most practical outfit of the four. Of course I've always loved the kinda futch thing Yang has had going on.

Chloe

Chloe bee fact of the week Yang checking her non existent nails on her robo hand after being caught staring is such a good bit.Also not only has blake fixed her weapon with gold but yang has a purple scarf tied on her leg

Faroth

Jaune kept pyrrah's crown in the shield, just added the glider option on it. And has the belt of hers as a belt too

Mare

23:05 Yang's upgrade are sticky Grenades which is a pretty cool upgrade and can be both up close and range.

Xýliandra

Um, "Pomp and circumstances" sounds nore like a Upitty Classy Nobel party/Gala to me. Hi, I'm from Norway

Mare

24:00 Ace Ops are based off of the Aesops Fable and different stories from them: • Clover Ebi (Leader): Based on A Fisherman's Good Luck (reflected in his fish-hook weapon and themes of fortune). • Elm Ederne & Vine Zeki: Based on The Elm and the Vine (representing mutual support and codependency). • Harriet Bree: Based on the fast-moving hare from The Tortoise and the Hare (representing speed, impatience, and overconfidence). • Marrow Amin: Based on The Dog and Its Reflection (or The Dog and the Shadow, reflected in his canine traits and internal conflicts). • Winter Schnee: An exception to the rule, as her character allusion is tied to The Snow Queen rather than an Aesop's fable.

Donovan "Ravenhull"

54:00 I think Jacque was fiddling with his cufflink/button while composing himself. Appearances are important, you know. ;)

Mare

30:54 Yes, you're on Point. Robin is based off of Robin Hood and her Happy Huntresses are based off of Robin Hood's "Merry Men"

Mare

36:41 - Vine is literally like a Tree Vine similar to his Aesop allusion while Elm is the Root of a Tree.

EDHPlayer

Next week: REAL. THIRSTY. MOMS.

Mare

48:21 Mantle IS part of Atlas. As Kerry Shawcross (Showrunner) had mentioned, Atlas and Mantle are based off of two versions of the America (US). So they're NOT two separate kingdoms

Zirkumflex

The Clover/Qrow ship is called Fair Game, just in case of a shipping emergency.

Butterfly Warrior

YES JOIN US IN SHIPPING QROW AND CLOVER!!! Their ship name is Fairgame. Also I headcanon (along with a few others in the fandom) that Qrow is a bisexual king

Mare

58:28 And this is the start of the "Pomp and Circumstance" ceremony

Mare

59:13 ....Um yeah....that is definitely a good call out. Another RWBY Whisperer indeed.

Mare

1:00:26 The change to Atlas is just a change of where the license was issued out. This license is for ALL of Remnant to use, not just Atlas. If they received their license from Beacon as originally intended, then their place of license issue would say Beacon instead. It's like having a California license. Just because I have this license doen't mean I can't drive anywhere else in the States. Otherwise, road trips wouldn't be allowed LOL

Zirkumflex

Why are you hesitant to trust RWBY when it is happy? When has RWBY ever hurt you? ... Oh, wait, rethorical question.

TheRavenWanderer

I've been a DM/GM for a few years and it's safe to say that you are exhibiting very notable signs of player PTSD lol. It's as if you've been with sadistic GMs in your DND/roleplay sessions to the point that every convenient plot point or character is now suspicious. It is what it is. Still, at this point of the story, try putting yourself in Ironwood's boots without the knowledge of Team RWBY and the other supporting cast. All you have is Atlas with a side of Mantle. Then look at Ironwood's decisions so far. He's logically acting out of what's currently at his disposal. Is it the right or moral thing? Not exactly but it's not out of the question why he would act that way given his goals and motivations as a character. That's one of the things that makes this whole arc in Atlas my favorite.

Hi-Viz

Her current one is my fav of all of hers, only just ahead of Mistral and way WAY ahead of her older ones, I love the gradual leaning towards more masc outfits overtime

Mare

1:05:20 Ruby and the others (Like the remaining Team STRQ members) have never mentioned she died though THAT is what they currently believe. They never once use the "D" word in the show for Summer (Died, dead, death, dying, etc). But the first we learn about Summer is through Yang when she explains it to Blake, "...Left on a mission and never Came Back." Other descriptions are: Never Returned, Gone, Missing. So yeah there's a lot more than we are giving at this point. CRWBY has been careful with spreading seeds of info regarding the Summer mystery and it will most likely be revealed during the very last Arc. Because Summer herself is a Chekhov's Gun. And in story telling you know the rule of Chekhov's Gun, "every element introduced in a story must be necessary, and irrelevant elements should be removed"

Mare

Totally looking forward to next week's reaction....for reasons....and for science.

Mare

I think Yang's Atlas outfit is okay but just a bit drab as far as color scheme. It's just a lot of Beige which is my least favorite color. If they had added more intricate designs on the aviator overalls it might have made a difference with me. But yeah that's what makes it my least favorite outfit, It's the plainness of it and the solidness of her overalls. EDIT: I posted some info on Yang's design from Kerry and apparently she had the most design iterations from the other members which mostly was about rigging and animation issues, which is why she ended up with the design she has. Mainly to accommodate her fighting abilities in animation.

RebootMania

Ah, my favorite Aesop fable: Sonic the Hedgehog.

Mare

If you're going by each of their outfits, according to Ein Lee, the official character designer, when she designed this for Yang, it was based on. Ein lee even uses a pun "Looking Fly" But importantly, early designs were evaluated based on their silhouettes, which are especially important for recognizing characters during action sequences. "Yang onee-san lookin fly in an asymmetrical jumpsuit and jacket 😂 I dunno, I've always loved her outfit motifs. Boots, browns and khaki, golds and fIrE" --Ein Lee https://www.deviantart.com/einlee/art/RWBY-Vol-7---Yang-Xiao-Long-818904677 Which was made as a homage to her mechanic prowess as well as the fact that she is officially licensed to fly a plane. But from a Production Crew perspective, the team loved the design but had to consider how it would affect her fighting animations. They settled on rolling up her sleeves and removing some dangling straps to make animation easier. So Yang, went through more design iterations than the other three girls. As for Ruby, Ein noted having a lot of fun experimenting with this silhouette, creating a look that combined traditional anime protagonist elements with practical layers for the colder climate. What Kerry wanted from Volume 7: - He describes the upgrades as varying between characters, with some being more supportive and others more attack-oriented.

Mare

As far as Yang's outfit goes, while it pays homage to her pilot and mechanic experience, here's what Kerry had to say about her designs. So apparently she went through a lot of design iterations which makes me want to see what those other concepts were for Yang. Kerry talks about Yang in the last paragraph I copied over: Kerry: "Before Volume 6 was even done with production, I hopped on a call with Ein, Patrick Rodriguez (Art Director), and Erin Winn (Lead Concept Artist). Together we threw around ideas and inspirations (what shows we've been watching), talked about the locations the characters will be in (did I mention it's cold?), and discussed new ideas we want to try (haircuts!). From there, Ein was off to the races. The way she works, which is typical for a lot of concept artists, is to start out with really rough, broad ideas. These can vary from loose sketches to fairly fleshed-out ideas. This allows all of us to start examining the silhouette, which is one of the most important things for character designs. Especially with action scenes, it's so important that our characters are clear and iconic at a glance. This process can go back and forth for a bit; honestly, it varies wildly. For this round, I remember all of us falling in love with Weiss right away. Ein nailed exactly what we were looking for: a Weiss that is focused on casting and also wanting to come into her own even more. Yang, on the other hand, had more iterations than the rest. All of the designs were great; it just took a few tries to find the one that was perfect for now. It's kind of like picking what flavor of ice cream you want. They're all good and you have your favorites, but since you only get one, you tend to take it pretty seriously (or at least I do). [Fast forward to Yang again after discussing Animation and Rigging process]: An example of this is once again Yang. She has this awesome jacket that looks great, but is a little limited when fighting. We all talked and decided we could roll up her sleeves when she goes to fight, that way her rig still has the flexibility needed for more extreme motions. While we were creating that new "rolled-up sleeves" shape, we decided to go ahead and tuck in the straps that normally dangle from her arm. The straps looked great in motion, but that much additional animation during fights might slow the animators down and prevent them from focusing on what is most important."

Faroth

who are you replying to? feels like not me...

Faroth

pretty sure is like rainbow jack... apple dash... damn it...

Mare

Yeah seriously. It's not like it's the main theme music for every graduation in the US lol.

Mare

Since Morgan is in the US, it just came as a surprise that they weren't aware of the name of the Graduation theme music that we use here in the US. It's literally called "Pomp and Circumstance" Or I might just be too old and maybe the last remaining person to actually know that. Also the title refers to a celebration of a promotion of sorts

RetroBeastto

6:15 The enby was to stun to speak

Mare

"she has told no one about Raven being the spring maiden" Do we really know if that's certain though? It's possible she may have told them off screen which isn't completely new for CRWBY. We'd know if it was an actual conflict of feelings with Yang but she hasn't shown any of that. SPOILER: Especially given what goes on in the V9 Beyond episodes

GlitchedLetters

I have a feeling she hasn't, but that's because I feel we're meant to see the result of others finding out she knew the whole time. Considering the V9 Beyond episodes, I think that is due to Raven rather than something Yang told others. I think the reason they make a point to have Yang not tell Qrow what really happened in the vault and then spend the next couple volumes questioning others who hide secrets is going to be important.

Mare

I don't know...honestly wouldn't put it past CRWBY for lack of exposition. They don't even give a little hint about it in any of the Director Commentaries much less any reaction or afterthought from Yang. [NOTE: Morgan, please don't read the following for the sake of spoilers after V7 Most of the time, it's always a budget thing and we all know what happened with Volume 5 and Gray Haddock's involvement with channeling RWBY's production funds to his pet project. Then we had Crunchyroll fund Volume 9 and then suddenly cut off funds after RT finished up to episode 8 then it was reduced to 10 episodes and a lot editing and rearranging of the storyline after, with omitting a lot of dialogue. It would not be surprising if they simply forgot in the grand scheme of pushing the narrative forward since they've been swiftly going through all the subplots in Monty's story map. At least Kerry brought that story map up during a Twitch session with Miles. I also feel Qrow already sort of knew but let it go considering that quirked eyebrow he gave. I even think he already knew even during the discussion at the tavern he had with Raven but was putting on an act for the sake of Salem's "ears" in the form of spies which isn't too much of a stretch since Qrow and Raven were originally Oz' ears and eyes in their bird form. But that was more of a personal thing for Yang and it didn't have anything to do with the rest of the team knowing that Raven wouldn't have helped them anyhow. I just don't see how not revealing the info onscreen would have benefited anyone. Especially since they already got the lamp from someone who was already known as obstinate. However there are possible reasons she didn't say anything if this is an actual plotline: - Yang might not want to expose her mother's identity or put a target on her back. - Yang might simply consider Raven's business her own and have no desire to discuss her. (I'd have more stake on this one because Yang was still hurting from this so her wounds were fresh during the time Qrow brought up the maiden during the flash back scene of them in the house with the Lamp relic.) -After discovering how much Ozpin concealed from them, Yang might not feel obligated to volunteer information. (Although I don't buy this one) Or - The writers may have wanted to preserve Raven's whereabouts and identity as a future plot possibility. But again Yang might have told Ruby or the others offscreen, but the show never explicitly establishes that. Many have interpreted this situation differently of course. [SPOILER] But one last thing is that {SPOILER} I feel like that sort of thing (Yang keeping it a secret and having conflict over it) would have been a secret exposed in the Ever After, since that place has a way to bring out the innermost turmoil in someone.

Ko Villa

Does kintsugi always have to be repaired with Yellow? Or is the color just personal preference?

soul slicr

Kintsugi is the process of repairing cracks/imperfections specifically with gold, so it typically is yellow, yeah

Phoenix_mercury

Yeah, iirc it's a luster/powder that's brushed over the top and it's supposed to *highlight* the crack/break as in saying the break is valued because it shows the history and what better material to use than gold(again, not solid gold)

Blake being the one who reacts the most to Jacques is so good because out of all the members of Team RWBY she's the one most familiar with slimy manipulation designed to weaponize what you love and make you feel awful about yourself. Husband and father of the year Jacques Schnee, drives his wife to alcoholism and then makes his kids feel like her overwhelming depression is their fault.

I wont tell you who there based off but I will tell you the theme the ace ops and robin hills team use as the basis for there allusions stop reading if you want to figure that out yourself too. the ace ops are cleverly renamed as there all based off characters from asops I don't know how much you know about them or how many you know but I will say most the ones there based off a re pretty obscure I had never heard of them till I looked it up. as for robin hill and the happy huntresses there all gender swapped robin hood and his merry men.

Emotionally scarring? RWBY? Never! Scarring implies that you are given time to heal. The writers keep the wound open so they can rub salt in it.

GlitchedLetters

I am of the opinion that they aren't going to reveal or talk about every story plot they have for the characters in background stuff because of how the show hinges it's major reveals and twists through subtle hints from previous volumes (even the music). Out of those ideas, I am actually of the 2nd one. I wouldn't disagree that Qrow knows about Raven but wouldn't put his sister in that harm because for most of volume 4-5, he genuinely didn't think that she would risk his life either (hence why Haven was a shock). {SPOILERS} . . . . Tbh, no, I don't think it would. By V9, Yang isn't thinking or worried about Raven because to her, Raven made her choice and left. She found her and now, she can focus on her team and, as you know, <3. If she was looking in the mirrors instead of in the clouds, we MIGHT have seen Raven.

We've finally unlocked my Favorite RWBY outfits!! Let's get into it😁 6:14-9:06 NEW LOOKS🤩🤩🤩!!! Seriously, Ruby and Blake's new designs, SLAPS, imo. Heck, I want those outfits in my closet!! And your reaction Morgan, 🤌🏼💋, beautiful👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 9:44 I believe it's actually gold. There's a technic (I can't remember the name), when you fix something that is broken, you use gold in the cracks. Not to hide the "wound", but to make it beautiful. Usually used on ceramic bowls, but it apparently works on other things too. And yes, it's VERY fitting that it matches/reminds of Yang😁 10:30 Obviously, if team RWBY gets upgraded, team RNJ deserves it too. I especially LOVE Noras new appearance. And the new things to Ren's outfit too. Jaune, other than a haircut and the sword on his arm, rather than his side, he doesn't look that much different to me😐 28:46 "My Semblance, is Good Fortune." We've found someone who CAN cancel out Qrow's Semblance, YES🤩!!! 56:57 "Not friends. Family" AAAAAAWWWWW😭❤️ 1:00:30 No no, that's not the case. They got their license in Atlas, sure, but they can operate in All the Kingdoms! Think of it as a driver's license. You get yours in the state you live in, but you can drive in All of the states. Or think of the Huntsman license as a, Ultimate passport. They have more access than the Atlas military! They can go on missions, and get paid for it now. Doesn't matter what kingdom they're in. They show that license, they have VIP access. That's how I think of it at least😅 Last edit: I absolutely LOVED your reaction of these episodes!! Seriously looking forward to next week's episodes!! Anyways, I hope you're having a wonderful day and I'll see you in your next reaction Morgan. Peace✌🏼

I think their only based on fairytale characters but I’m not sure so don’t quote me lol

JAMES D'ALESSANDRO

It's one Kingdom. Atlas treats Mantle like an afterthought

LikeCat

Even tho Mantle was the OG Kingdom in the continent of Atlas (yes its exceedingly confuseing that most - if not all - main cities (where the Academies are located - Beacon for Vale, Haven for Mistral, Atlas for Atlas and Shade for Vacuo) ARE named after the continent where they are located)

JAMES D'ALESSANDRO

I personally do not think that they are related, but maybe it's possible

Vex Valor

What is your ratings of their outfits so far? I love volume 7 Ruby, Blake, Nora, and Ren's outfits more. I prefer volume 4-6 for Weiss, Yang, and Jaune.

Hollyhock

Blake has turned into a bobcat :D

Nah. Fairy tale is just rwby's theme. You have plenty of myths and even real life and a few literature ones. Does tend to not be television or movie or comics though. JNPR has real life with Joan of Arc, myth with Thor and Achilles and folklore with Mulan. The headmasters, Oz, qrow and glinda are wizard of oz so literature. The one exception is there a cowboy bepop character. Both corgis are named after German numbers. O and theres team FNKY who are memes.

LucidDreamWolf88

Ahh okay I gotcha. Thanks for letting me know

JAUNE HAS A LANDING STRATEGY!!!

Lavender Onyxheart

i'm gonna have to spoil your fun, as cute as Fair Game (Qrow and Clover) is, CRWBY did say it wasn't intended to be a romantic pairing, gonna spare you the speculation BUT canon never stopped ships anyway, we still shipped nuts and dolts after penny died after all x3 her coming back just made the ship better lol and you know, the ship might not have been intended to be romantic but there's no reason we can't see it that way if we want, y'know despite Clover doing the "lucky you" with a wink just like the waitress did in vol 4 to Qrow x3

Also next week: Tyrian kills like half of them 😔

Ruby has traditionally been considered a Ranger with favored enemy: Grimm. Probably ranged Ranger since she doesn't dual-wield, and Crescent Rose is a sniper rifle

Faroth

thats another build, but for 2024 (to update the builds)? Fighter3Battle mater/ warlock of archfey allows her to get pact of the blade to use charisma as her main weapon stat summoning the scythe (halberd), eldritch blast for the shots and teleport a lot as a warlock of archfey, being aasimar as a race allows her fly and aoe radiant damage to grimms too per turn or frightened them once problem with ranger is that 2024 ranger, ehm... wotc kinda hates the ranger... Now, if ranger worked as intended, then yes, 100%, ranger, but even 2014 ranger is kinda meh, in idea is good, in exceution, meh, also ranger use wisdom, and ruby is a charisma build 100%

Eric Smith

Real kintsugi is always yellow because it uses gold dust mixed with lacquer, but I've seen both red and yellow in Star Wars, for other fictional examples

Eric Smith

27:32 I think the closest we've had to a video game character is Flynt (the trumpet guy from v3), since he's a Rooster Teeth Minecraft meme. There are also the secondary Mario allusions for Port and Oobleck (also Peach though she's only a name), but their primaries are Prokofiev music and a Dr. Suess book. Harriet's an Aesop's Fable anyway, though

SpaghettiPolonaise

Speaking of small details in these designs, like Blake's sword having the gold thread (which I actually missed until I saw someone else point it out)... almost all the Weiss designs in this show have some element of red in them, and in this design's case that includes her earrings. Her *ruby* earrings Which could mean nothing
