It's interesting seeing new perspectives on #RWBY
For example I've recently been showing RWBY to a friend of mine who before knowing me only heard of RWBY in a negative way yet since watching every season he continues to be confused as to WHY there is so much hate for the series
We even have a mutal friend who told him "it sucks after volume 3" but at that point we were already half way through volume 5 and he just doesn't understand the hate people have for RWBY
like I've loved this show since practically day one, before it was as well known as it is today, and before it was considered 'the norm' to hate as most people simply hadn't heard of it outside the fandom

#RWBY A chance to scream about how "This Life Is Mine" is my favorite song of all time about my favorite girl of all time you say?

Honestly like I want to write and talk about it for hours but... for the sake of simplicity and brevity... It's just...

Cathartic. Resolute. A-
perfect, not closer per say to Weiss' arc as displayed through the soundtrack but very much so the moment where she truly embraces who she is, who she was always meant to be, and who she can still become. Not just a representation of her struggles like much of her other OST rep-
or a desire to change like illustrated in "It's my turn" but a pure, unapologetic condemnation of those hinderances, of her previous ideologies and her father/kingdoms influences. In much the way some of the upcoming volume 9 songs are looking to do for Ruby, This life is Mine-

I might never have really been able to understand romantic Whiterose that much, BUT I will absolutely say they are an utter treasure when it comes to being partners and besties.

I don't really think they've had quite as much time to shine in their antics and or their-
personal interactions super recently but think that's down to both Ruby spending a lot of time mostly with Penny and Weiss either being more spread out across the board with with say Jaune. That and I think Weiss has LONG since out grown her need to go all tsundere with it and-
pretend they aren't as close friends as they are. Especially recently that lack of silly banter and more focus on simply I think it more goes to show how she's not just accepted Ruby as a leader but fully supports and believes in her (as we saw in vol 9) arguably to a fault-

#RWBY Hey so forgive the bright overly simplistic insanely obvious visual aid... but I just happened to pass by something that... has proved its clearly not obvious to everyone.

RUBY'S. CHARACTER. ARC. IN. VOLUME. 9. IS. NOT. FILLER.

It's been bad enough dealing with- Image
this about the volume in general but it is utterly baffling to me that I keep seeing this in regards to Ruby's character arc.

"You are enough"
DOES NOT MEAN THAT RUBY IS THE EXACT SAME PERSON AS SHE ALWAYS WAS. IT DOES NOT MEAN HER GROWTH WAS "REVERTED"

The things that have-
happened to her throughout the course of the show have still happened, the only thing that has happened is she now understands that the insane unrealistic expectations she has foisted upon herself since childhood based on her mother are unrealistic and that to be the hero the-

To bring out my own #RWBY #FNDMPositivity and reasons to #GREENLIGHTVOLUME10. So we can have more...

Folks like @SAlle1304, @aleviahwolfe and @GearBearArc, etc. who love to bring us all fun and interesting analysis and perspective regarding both scenes from the show and the-
characters we love so dearly, and what they mean to them.

Folks like @Chaikachi or @EtincelleArt who's incredible art i've completely fallen in love with this year whether its been adorable and wholesome or... slightly emotionally devastating but in that good way!

Folks like-
@gh0xttherebel, @RondueSon and so many others who've joined into the reactor space here this past year and change to bring so much positivity and passion for the show that is just utterly infectious. And even then that's only a couple from the youtube side of things, whether-

Maybe someone can help explain it but not gonna lie, the weird random Ice Queendom hate from the #RWBY FNDM seems... weird and unnecessary to me...

Not because its better than the OG or anything like that, more just cause its not... bad and so often it really feels like... just-
trying to gatekeep the show which seems weird and seems counterproductive to me.

If you have genuine issues with like pacing and stuff, I don't really personally get it but its fair enough, we all have our personal tastes for flow and story progression.

Outside of that. It-
Feels pretty arbitrary and weirdly mean to me. Like almost leaning into that exact same weird takes that we constantly have to deal with from people outside the community talking about RWBY proper. It a lot of the time just reads as gatekeepy and unhealthy for the growth of-

#CJs2Cents: #RWBY9Spoilers
So...I just watched episode 9 and holy shit, how did the writers take all of the intrigue and actual curiosity I had for this season and Ruby that they built up last episode, and just annihilate it in under 15 minutes?!
#RWBY9 #RWBY
Let's just get the biggest piece of failure out of the way. So Ruby drunk the damn tea not to "ascend", but to literally end herself because she was so overwhelmed by life and the world, yet the story completely ignored this reality in favor of the ascension angle, and treats it>
as such. The gang aren't reflecting on how they failed to help Ruby or dealing with the grief of literally failing to keep their loved one from making the biggest mistake a person could do to themselves. No, instead, they look at the reincarnated paper people & herbologist and>

I want to talk a little about this scene in particular because for me, this is still one of the most heartbreaking scenes in the entire show even after all this time.

For the longest time when I rewatched Volume 5 I had to skip past it because it genuinely hurt too-> Image
much to watch. Let me explain why.

The scene in itself, along with the context, is obviously sad.

This is someone who just got abandoned by her own mother again, just so she can grab a relic that would put a target on her back from the most powerful being on Remnant.

But->
what truly made this scene for me be in particular so incredibly heartbreaking is...the framing and direction of this specific shot.

It's genius, really, to direct it the way they did, but I also need them to pay my therapy bills because it was unfair.

I want you guys to-> Image

Reasons to #GREENLIGHTVOLUME10 for #RWBY

-a 🧵
#GREENLIGHTVOLUME10
#RWBY9Spoilers
Ruby is still dealing with her trauma and PTSD, and considering how we've been told this is just the start, I don't think these issues will be fully resolved this Volume.

We can't just let her end up in a miserable state🥹
#GREENLIGHTVOLUME10

Winter just saw Weiss fall to her death. Her, Whitley Klein, and Willow all think that she is gone forever.

We can't not ever see a reunion between them

Let's talk about Yang being the personification of Strength, and how each and every volume we've seen this become truer and truer,

How it made her the heart of team RWBY.

And, in a way, how this Volume this is more important than ever.

-> Image
From my (extremely biased but at least her me out) perspective, Yang is the heart of team RWBY.

The easiest way to break the team, is to take her away from them.

Volume 8 did a great job of showing this through everything going wrong the moment Yang fell.

The only person-> ImageImageImage
able to keep a clear mind at that moment was Weiss, and even she wasn't enough to ground Ruby and Blake in time.

You could argue that regardless of who fell, the result would have been the same, but I want to disagree a bit with that.

Of course the emotional distraught here-> ImageImage

Alright, let's talk more in depth about Yang's interaction with her younger self because there is genuinely SO MUCH to it, that I'm losing my mind.

There is this interesting choice of words with "go forward" and "go back"

Yang's never-> ImageImage
been someone to go back. Just like she said, she's someone who's always gone with the flow. And the flow never goes backwards, it always moves forward.

But this is her younger self speaking. The same person who already had doubts about how far she can truly go this way.

The-> ImageImageImage
Yang from right now already knows the answer to "But how long can I really do that for?" Because the answer is up until the point she lost her arm.

This younger self was a manifestation which prayed on that. On the fact that going with the flow wasn't a choice anymore.

#RWBY #RWBYSPOILERS OKAY THEORY TIME I was talking to a friend and he mentioned the idea that Alyx Might Still Be In The Everafter, which made me come up with a theory of my own with this idea in mind, as well as a theory of the identity of the mystery blacksmith person
From Oz and Oscar's account of the fairytale, we learn that Alyx ended up in the Everafter when she was running away from a mistake and it wasn't until she had "learned her lesson" that she returned to Remnant, but when she did return, "she wasn't the same girl anymore"
What if that was more literal than originally thought? Now with mentions from the Cat and Herbalist about how "times change and so do we" and how "kings become princes" what if the Everafter can fundamentally change your very identity? Or rather can "shed" PARTS of your identity?

Alright, so my tweets about this have been disorganized and all over the place, so I'll make a single big one

Alyx broke the Ever After and left it in ruins.

Here is how we got that from this episode.

Let's start with the domains and->
what we know so far.

We've been to two acres (excluding the one we started in)

The acre of the Red King.

And what I'm assuming is the acre of the Jabberwalker.

Both of them have been shown in ruins in some way, shape or form.

If we look at->
the acre of the Red King, at first glance it doesn't look that destroyed, it actually looks alright.

But it isn't. There are rusty ruins everywhere. A white that's tainted and not pure.

And, of course, the biggest problem, there is no Red King anymore.

And we know it's->

GUYS HEAR ME OUT

If we're in the sequel to Alyx's story so like Paradox mentioned, the Jabberwalker shouldn't be alive. But they are.

So what if, like I said in my previous tweet, that bridge isn't a connection to the gods and it's just->
another bridge connecting two different acres.

And that acre is a destroyed acre from Alyx's chaos

So what if that was the home of the Jabberwalker? What if Alyx didn't kill the Jabberwalker, but ended up destroying their domain? Their home?

And->

what if in the process the Jabberwalker almost died, but the Smith lady from the intro fixed them with gears and mechanical parts?

And that's why they say "Fix" once they pick up a gear from the ground because they're hurt

Alright so let's talk a little bit about team RWBY being in the sequel of Alyx's story because this genuinely reveals SO much.

Let's take it step by step from

"Well, if it hadn't been for your kind, the King would still be here."

We-> Image
know that Alyx did beat the Red King at his own game, but we didn't know how.

But the Red Prince's words along with what Yang said confirmed it. Alyx cheated.

And who knows how far she went when she cheated, but something definitely->

happened to the Red King because of her cheating.

Alyx went through her trials, she overcame them through cheating, and then she left home through the tree. She lived happily every after, the end.

But...the world she left behind didn't.

I understand that in order for things to be greenlit there needs to be some sort of "evidence" that the last thing that was greenlit did well and V9 isn't out yet - but you'd think that would outweigh keeping people who have literally worked on #RWBY for 5-8 years :/
(Keep in mind this speculation) RWBY [as far as I remember] always got future Volumes greenlit in press releases as soon as the first episode of the current volume dropped. V9 isn't out yet, so V10 isn't greenlit. But people aren't gonna wait around, they're gonna get new jobs.
RT can hire new people. They can even try to re-hire the old people. But there's no one better experienced to work on RWBY than the people who have been working on RWBY. It's nutty to me that whoever controls this would rather lose **all the animators** than greenlight for V10.

Hey everyone,it’s been awhile since I’ve talked about anything RWBY general but today I’ve decided to give my 2 Cents on the whole Blake outfit situation in the recent RWBY Ice Queendom that has caused an uproar in some parts of the RWBY FNDM which is very understandable but,
I am also going to give my 2 cents on the outfit and this whole thing as well!For staters ,I would like to say I have now seen any RWBY IQ content nor have seen any of the episodes so I’m just checking the tweets of those who have seen it and are giving their opinions to this
whole thing.Now as to why people are upset in the first place is because Blake in Weiss mind is wearing a White Fang outfit and not just any outfit but the outfit of her ex boyfriend & abuser Adam Taurus.And that right there is what started this whole mess in

No Vacuo was absolutely not their best choice. Dumping Atlas' population onto another unprepared city is beyond moronic; especially when you remember Grimm activity is at an all time high thanks to Ruby. The best option was to split the populace among the 5 major cities. #RWBY
Instead of having the exit portal be a "spot in Vacuo" that is very exposed to grimm and other dangers, have their be 5 portals leading to inside the capital cities of Vacuo, Vale, and Mistral; along with the other two leading to Menagerie and Argus. Keeping the burden minimized.
The thought that after Ruby caused mass panic and confusion across the entire world with her little message, they thought the best place to send the kingdom of Atlas'population was a desert kingdom that already has low resources, dangerous environment, & a bad history with Atlas?

Man, every time I see something involving Atlas, I get so heated and disappointed all over again by the Rooster Teeth writers' woke nonsense of "military bad". Miles & Kerry had "anime homework" yet learned nothing about nuance from it. Like how Oda-sensei handled military! #RWBY
To the untrained eye, it would seem like Oda is approaching military in a similar light to the RWBY writers, however this couldn't be further from the truth. Oda makes it clear on several occasions that the marines themselves aren't bad, but the corruption that plagues them is.
Of course the marines are antagonistic, they act as the global military to all of the world of One Piece & our heroes are pirates. And while there are indeed many despicable members in the order, there are also many marines who genuinely want to help the world or fix the system.

I find it funny how anytime you see someone bring up criticism of how the writers have been butchering Qrow's character since V6, fanatics will jump and say, "you're just mad that Qrow's showing his emotions & vulnerability instead of toxic masculinity". No, ya dumbasses! 🙄#RWBY
What these people-myself included-are upset about his how the writers have made Qrow an absolute buffoon who seems to have lost all his intelligence, along with mope around about how "cursed" he is, despite the story clearly showing Qrow can and HAS lived a "normal" decent life!
And let the record show that people have absolutely no problem with Qrow showing his emotions. Hell, some of Qrow's best scenes were when he showed his emotions-pre V6-like when he was spending time with his nieces, or when he came to realized all his huntsmen friends were dead.

You know, it's funny. RWBY is the 2nd series I've ever seen where the theories & ideas of the fans are both more interesting and less convoluted & nonsensical than what we actually get. Here, look at this theory from last year for the other world! #RWBY

If you didn't want to watch it, to poorly summarize it, basically the theory was that the other world our "heroes" fell into could've been a sort of "mirror Remnant", where everything we know about RWBY and its characters is flipped and twisted in this alternate universe.
Sounds a hell of a lot more interesting than "RWBY & Jaune get isekaid to Wonderland" like the trailers are basically showcasing, huh? Could you just imagine the RWBY girls & Jaune fighting against their twisted mirror selves & allies, or helping out mirror Salem & WTCH?

Wow...just wow. The sheer arrogance & narcissism that just oozes off of this post. No admitting you made something that had nothing to do with her all about yourself, that Mr.Ubukata was innocent, that this was from 7 years ago, or even just an apology to him & his ex-wife? #RWBY
You really just put up, "teehee guys it's the VA of your favorite trashy cat girl, look forward to our new anime and I don't want to talk about what I did anymore". How fucking dare you use other people's trauma & past, lie about it and then try to act like you did nothing wrong.
And just look at all the comments congratulating you and wishing you well, the sheer level of ignorance and worship is sickening. It must be so good to be a woman in a community that worships the ground you walk on. Blindly believing everything you say like you were their lord.
