So have anyone already heard or seen this? Created by the same guy who made Dead Fantasy. Yes, it's Monty Oum!
RWBY (http://rwby.wikia.com/) is about four (awesome)fighting girls, that are named as Red(Ruby Rose), White(Weiss Schnee), Black(Blake Belladona), and Yellow(Yang Xiao Ling) respectively.
The first trailer is Red/Ruby's trailer, who is another Little Red Fighting Hood (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LittleRedFightingHood). A lot of you already know what a gunblade looks like right? Well what about a friggin' gunscythe? It's called Crescent Rose (http://rwby.wikia.com/wiki/Crescent_Rose). Though it's said to be a hybrid of a rifle and a scythe, not a revolver-like Squall's nor Claire's.

It has nice character and weapon design which I can get inspiration off.
Also when I think of 3D CG I only think of idols.
-
Well. This looks pretty awesome.
I'm gonna have to follow this!
-
Well damn. That actually surprised me. Rooster Teeth seems to be involved too.
Weapon acts like a bolt action .50 calibur with a pnuematic blade. Unrealistic, but very unique and interesting.
-
The recoil from the rifle portion is used to compensate for otherwise lackluster strength, hence all the spinning motions to gather momentum and such. Nice to see some thought put into the physics, even if it's not realistic to begin with. :P
-
Now this one looks awesome. I'm interested.

Well it would make sense that the bullets are piercing;

White trailer released! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vt9vl8iAN5Q)
-
This is seriously shaping up into something awesome.
Now I can't wait for the black trailer even though we've got no news about it yet.
-
It's like Orie from Undernight In-birth!
-
Well atleast now it's obvious that they do have real names.
First it was simply Red, White, Black, and Yellow. But The latter showed us Ruby for Red, and Weiss Schnee for White. Which now make sense since Ruby is from the Blood-Red Gemstone, Weiss and Schnee are from German meaning White and Snow.
Anyways, I partly guessed, and most of the fans did, that Weiss is a person in some form of royalty or nobility. Judging from her tiara, and her weapon of choice, the rapier. It seemed to deem obvious.
Next up is Black. Guessing it's between April and early May, and Yellow between late May and June. Since episode 1 premiere is on July.
-
But but you aren't supposed to be slashing with a rapier.
-
Man ... I wish this was a game, because I want to play it.
-
But but you aren't supposed to be slashing with a rapier.
occasionally thrusting swords would be sharpened along the sides. it's also a magic weapon with a revolving magic cylinder elemental whatsit, so whatever! \o/

You know how Red is from Little Riding Hood, what about White? Who is the Knight in her story? (I saw a post on tumblr which was something like 'mirror, who is the loneliness of that all' so it was different than my initial impression that she was the princess in the story <_>)
-

Well as far as I know. Even though Ruby is a variant of another Little Riding Hood. Monty Oum stated himself, that no fairy tales will be related to RWBY whatsoever. The Mirror Mirror you saw is probably the song of White's trailer.
We can never really guess "what kind" of characters they really are, let alone their appearance.
Our only good basis is the lyrics of each song itself. Though the first song in the first trailer provides the heaviest insights of each character.
Red like roses fills my dreams and brings me to the place you rest
White is cold and always yearning burdened by a royal test
Black the beast descends from shadows
Yellow beauty burns gold
The second song is probably only White's own accord in her experience. Probably saying that she fought that knight for a reason. And also, a knight as an enemy? A rapier? A tiara? Spellcasting? Those clearly are signs of some form of royalty/nobility-relation of the character. But still the clue in the first song "burdened by a royal test". That's what gave it away.
Though there are some fan speculations. Even though Monty Oum said it would not be based off fairy tales. Weiss Schnee meaning "White Snow" in German can also be a reference to "Snow White". Mirror Mirror, the song of her trailer must be also based from Snow White's stepmother, Queen Grimhilde's Mirror. Other than that Snow White is a German fairy tale.
All those lead up to the point of two speculations: One, Monty Oum just based off the characters from fairy tales, but the story has no relation to any fairy tales; or two, he pretty much lied and trolled everyone.
-

Yeah your first speculation seems to be where it's going right now.
If they are truly just based off of the characters though, I can't really think who Black would be.
As for Yellow, the closest fit I can think of would be Goldilocks.
-
I mentioned this earlier on IRC, but Black is likely to be related somehow to Beauty and the Beast.
Yellow could be goldilocks but I get the sneaking suspicion it's Rumplestiltskin's girl, since she was made to spin gold.
and I must say, Weiss' scar is delicious.
-
Wow. Just wow. Even with all the anime, and weapon stuff I'm into there are still weapons I've not seen done before. Gunblade? GUN SCYTHE. [Not to mention some of the scythe moves she did have given me inspiration to make my mental image of Elly's fighting style even more awesome.]
I love the fencer archetype [It's the only reason why I play Fiora in LoL :V], but an elemental spellcasting rapier wielder that also forms magical seals to jump off from and attack at impossible angles? Now THAT is brilliant.
But but you aren't supposed to be slashing with a rapier.
It's clearly bladed at the sides. In fact, it's shape appears to be triangular [Otherwise you would only see one face in this screenshot, the top face is angled for the 3rd face], with three flat sides, and hence, three edges around it to slice things with. It's not a normal rapier, although it's styles like one. It's a weapon that can both cut and stab.
Also a triangle is the strongest structural shape, so it should be a LOT better at slicing attacks than a normal Rapier, which is far flimsier. For that matter, it should be better at thrusting too, since being less flimsy means more force can be put into a thrust.
...
Why are there not triangular blades already?

I've not played that game. Nor do I know where that's from. But point conceded, it's been done before [Even if it seems to be a Scythe-Shotgun and not a Scythe-Rifle]. Just not widely enough for me to have been aware.
...
Still not as awesome.

A two edged blade allows you to swing in both directions to slice people. A three edged blade only lets you slice in one direction but allows you to have a slightly more powerful thrust (as in stopping power), but that leaves clunky edges which aren't '360 degrees' so to speak. The thinner the edge the easier it is to slice things, that's common knowledge. It would definitely be tougher though, and you could parry quite easily with it, but as I said a triangle shape would only leave one cutting edge.

It would definitely be tougher though, and you could parry quite easily with it, but as I said a triangle shape would only leave one cutting edge.
Except why does the number of cutting edges matter? You're only cutting with one edge at once. [And there's three cutting edges, one between each face, unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean] Although the fact it's more of a wedge than a traditional shape would mean more of the victim gets in the way, making it more difficult to make deeper wounds.
I guess it would also be heavier.
-
Because in order to have three potential cutting edges, all three will be at such a large angle that it would be more of a blunt instrument than a sword.
-

It means you can only swing one way to actually cut.

It means you can only swing one way to actually cut.
Usually you only need to swing one way, unless outnumbered.
-
Usually you only need to swing one way, unless outnumbered.
in terms of 1v1 I can think of numerous situations where having a double edged weapon would give you some very quick followups that would be awkward if not impossible to dodge.
-
Speaking of cutting edges.
Here's something:
Single Edge - A bladed weapon that only has one cutting edge. It is advantageous as it can be pointed only to the opposing target. Though when trying to slash or hit in reverse, you need to turn the blade around.
Double Edge - A bladed weapon that has two cutting edge opposite of each other. It is advantageous and disadvantageous to the user as one of it's edges is also pointed towards you. Though if handled with right techniques, it can be very advantageous to the user.
Triple Edge - A non-classified bladed weapon. It is rare, probably you won't even find a branded and a named triple-edge bladed weapon, and quite possibly there's a reason. It's very disadvantageous. In the olden times, warfare with swords are one of the most common. There have been made single edge, and double edge weapons. There are also edgeless weapons, backswords and such. But why no triple edge? A sword can only be slashed through an enemy along it's flat surface. A triple edge means three edges on a sword, but there can only be two sides of a sword. So where does the other edge goes? Of course it'd be in the middle. Slashing will be a big problem, even if one side is used, as there will be a stopping force from one of the edges if attempt for a straight cut is made. You will need mundane amount of physical strength to cut through. Otherwise the blade will be as blunt as an edgeless blade and will prove very little in combat, and it will be most likely a mace rather than an actual sword. A triple edge sword though can prove effective like a thrust sword, as chain woven armor can be split and pierced through with it's edges, and do sufficiently large damage to the target.
(http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130214192535/rwby/images/7/72/WeissRapier.png)
Weiss Schnee rapier is not triple edge, it's a double edged blade to a pointed tip. The middle part you see is called the "Central Ridge". Even if it's diamond-like structure, it's not considered a third edge.
A rapier doesn't need to be only for thrusting, though it's proven effective that way that it can be used for it as piercing through armor. But there's a reason why a rapier CAN be made as a single edge, double edge, and even as an edgeless blade like an Estoc. Because there are some blades made specifically for usage, a katana is a long sword, curved, single edge blade used for slicing, a Bastard sword is a hand and a half sword that can be both used by two hands, or one hand with a shield on the off hand, a Zweihander is a heavy sword which requires two hands used to slash slow but powerful, and cannot be used for cavalry, some however see the rapier in its entire time-line and see that it never truly fits into any single definition[eg. Cut/Slash/Thrust/etc].
A rapier is a longsword, which is also a straight sword. So of course it would be given as a technique to be used like "half-sword", the technique of thrusting. Though that does not mean it cannot be used for slashing or cutting.
Though Weiss Schnee's sword may actually be a backsword, since it may have a "false edge". Due to it's fans it was called a rapier. Then again, we do not see any edge near the tip, and being a backsword it would need to be only single edged. As for the hilt is a complex, protective hilt, basket-like guard, which most rapiers actually use.
BUT STILL, we don't know if it's actually a rapier. It's only fan's speculations.
Though I don't know how'd you guys get into the topic of three-edge blades. I have made my point otherwise.
Plus I don't think we should be arguing about it from the first place, as I doubt the creator actually has any much ideas about swords, when actually making "fictional" weapons in the first place.
Edit:
I forgot to note that Weiss' rapier is actually like a "diamond rapier". It has "four edges", but it is actually still just a central ridge that provided additional thrust prowess as such a triple edge. It is still a double edge that is shaped like a diamond.

Update Update!
I found it on their facebook page earlier, but I don't want to link you guys on a facebook page so I'll just repost what they said.

We're pleased to announce that the next RWBY Trailer will premiere at our PAX East panel, Friday March 22 at 1 PM in the Main Theater!
Start the countdown!
-
Huh. That's a lot sooner than I thought it'd be.
-
that's either a whip or ribbons.
-
that's either a whip or ribbons.
Or both, knowing Red and White's styles so far.

A few hours from now...since I'm on the east side, I'll be asleep by that time it releases.
Someone just post here if they saw it, so I won't hesitate searching for it~

Black trailer is out! (http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2013/03/22/video-exclusive-premiere-of-rooster-teeths-anime-style-rwby-black-trailer)
-
Oum you sexy bastard.
-
That wasn't what I was expecting at all. Of course that definitely isn't a bad thing.
And now we wait for Yellow.
-
badass certification: the reach of your sword extends beyond what it should actually be able to reach.
-
I knew something was odd with her silhouette. The ribbon was obvious, but the one on her back seemed like a quiver of arrows/bolts. Now I see it's actually a gunblade.
I'm beginning to see some connections/ideas Monty got from the Final Fantasy series(considering his previous works ofc...). Looks like some "turk"-like characters, weapons...and etc.
Also that katana of her partner...THAT IS SOOOO Samuel Rodrigues. Maybe Monty just played Metal Gear Rising the other day, and was fascinated by the uniqueness of Muramasa.
Anyways...the voice acting could use some polishing though. :colbert:
-
Everyone mentioned that. It's new. Give them a bit to get into their characters.
-
This is quite pleasant, I totally thought Black's partner was Jestream Sam.

He might have plagiarized Sam's sword, but he's still not as badass as Jetstream Sam.

totally thought of Kagura's "Michael #12"

HELLO MARISA
shotgun fists
PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH
REMIXES.
oh god the kungfu made me salivate.
the FOOTSIES WITH MAI(?)
SHOTGUN DEMPSEY ROLL
wut Ruby's voice.
voice acting got better (except ruby???) and the moon hasn't completely wigged out yet
-
oh god ruby's voice
-
I really love the fight scenes, and the new weapon is amazing - but it seems like every time they reveal more of what the story is like, the cheesier it gets :I
That being said, Yellow's voice acting seems to be pretty decent.
-
WHY RUBY, I THOUGHT YOU WOULD'VE SOUNDED GRUFF AND PROFESSIONAL, NOT LIKE THIS.
Anyways, what makes it for me is the remix of all the old songs, and Yang in general just seems like such a fun character.
-
Yessss. I was hoping Yang's personality would be something like that.
Ruby's voice sounded a little meh, but I think it'll get better once the show gets going.
And I just realized this, but doesn't Sekibanki look kinda like Ruby?
-
I'm not too fond of Ruby's voice either, hopefully it'll grow on me since she was set to be like my fav character ever >.> Sounds familiar, kinda reminded me of Coco from Crash Tag Team Racing for a quick moment, do you guys know if it's that Becca chick who did Sis in RvB? Not sure. Was hoping her voice would be a bit more like Alice's from Madness Returns. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=_Xh5PUR8UJU#t=99s)
The twins were awesome as was that fight. If there are more like them, could end up getting some seriously incredible fights. Can't get more hyped and very much looking forward to what Monty comes up with for them.
God I hope this series ends up perfect, could totally be so for me. Still 5 weeks till RTX. v_v Just can't wait.

I couldn't help but think "Seriously?
a dude with a bazooka
is treated as an even-more-dramatic followup to singlehandedly taking on two other "magical girls"?
"
Ehh, I dunno. *shrug* |3
-
everything about yang is perfect and i'm still a whee bit smitten with her
-
large blunt weapons are the counterpick to gauntlets man.
-
Ruby's voice is unbearable.

but it seems like every time they reveal more of what the story is like, the cheesier it gets
Quoting for truth.

Ah, but it did show something.
Those gun+weapon combos are not just limited to the protags. [And it was a semi-guided bazooka shotgun
]
Anyone besides me wonder about Marisa Yang's fire-hair thing towards the end, and the fact She called Ruby sis
Slight disappointment she didn't have her own theme. She had a small one I guess right at the end re-watching but not enough :/
Also if you give Ruby Yang's hair you totally get an Elly expy :v Just waiting for the gunscythe recoil to be used to throw it like a boomerang
-
I noticed that there is no consistency in the enemies fought in each trailer, nor any attempt at showing off the setting, and what that says to me is that the only thing in these trailers they think is important to show off is the character designs.
Also, what little writing and voice acting has been shown so far has been awful.
Everything except the fights in this show is probably going to suck.
-

Seriously, how did they manage to make the fights decent but the walking animations so bad?
-
Well, the focus of all 4 trailers was clearly the fights, everything else was secondary. After all, these are trailers... the actual thing may be better. Like backgrounds. Or walking. [Unfortunately Ruby's voice.. meh, I've played Sonic Unleashed. I survived Chip with my Sanity mostly intact]

Also, why does it make a punching SFX when she keeps holding his dick? What motion is happening down there!?
I was actually pondering about this for a few minutes. Good to know I'm not alone.

I thought it was more of a crunching noise to more heavily/obviously imply shes clenching his balls harder. Don't see a problem with it.

Only a sharp reaction on his part is needed, then. That sound effect makes 100% 0% sense.
Having this conversation, huh. I don't know, I guess it's important.
-
Yellow is basically the fuckchild between Sengoku Basara's Tokugawa Ieyasu and a super saiyan chick.
that said, gotta love her weapons.
can't say the same for her style tho, I am all over Black.
I DEMAND MAX FACTORY FIGURINES
-
I wholly agree with the criticisms mentioned before, and want to add one of my own, one which I had back since the Red trailer:
I find that the show already fluked it from the very beginning, all because of presentation. At the first frames of Red I thought this was going to be hand-drawn in a unique artstyle that simulates 3D (kinda like the Bad Apple PV, and color-wise like the shadow levels from Donkey Kong Country Returns). But then we get a good look at Ruby and the jobber werewolves, revealing that it is, unfortunately, all in CGI. Rough CGI at that.
Okay, not a problem, right? I mean, fan projects can do amazing things with 3D models. Just look at Touhou Dog Fight and similar videos. This is going to be very stunning for a fan project-
...What do you mean this isn't a fan project?
......What do you mean this is going to be an 'internet anime'?
.........What do you mean actual money has been put into this?!
I'm sorry, but that just won't do.
If RWBY is going to be an actual show, with tons of cash invested in it, the quality shouldn't be 'fan-project' tier with rigged models and animation. It should be 'professional television' tier, with fluid CGI animation and presentation. It doesn't need to be a Pixar motion picture, but a funded, team-produced animated series should at least be better looking than CGI animations made by lone individuals for fun. A show needs to have some air of professionalism to be taken seriously, but recent trailers have shown that such professionalism is very lacking in this production. There is no reason why a show produced for the internet shouldn't be as good as something you'd find on television, especially since for a lot of people internet is substituting television completely. Just what happened with this project?
It is very disappointing RWBY is taking this course. Animated series produced for Youtube have shown that they can be much better than this. Bravest Warriors is a very good example. If RWBY wanted to become something truly great, it should have been one of two things:
a) A fully hand-drawn animated series with quality and presentation befitting of the funds and people put into it (and if it has to be CGI, at the very least make the models and animation properly detailed, refined and smooth).
or
b) A Sengoku-Basara-style video game.
Back when I first discovered RWBY, I had hoped the project would have been able to mature into something more presentable, but each successive trailer only shows more and more faults. With the first episode coming this July, I have little faith left in RWBY. Odds are the only part worth watching will be the fights. I will still follow it, for said fights and to see what direction the story takes, but I'm not getting my hopes up high.
-
It's about on the same level as Rooster Teeth's other stuff. RT has other projects to devote to.
-

Uh, Bad Apple was 3D with effects.

Hm! Turned out fairly well in my opinion!
Plus Ruby's voice actor definitely got more practice in.
-
The opening is pretty rad and I am in love with it.
Also Ruby is dorbles.
-

someone -did- make it with like paper cuts etcetc 2D > 3D but it was fanmade
also i rather have an amateur production with better....series than a professional production with boring shit
THOSE BATTLEON-ESQUE CHARACTERS THO

THOSE BATTLEON-ESQUE CHARACTERS THO
u stole my line
Ruby stop being so cuteeeeeeee; Agreed, her VA is getting better :3
ED sounds fantastic, is there a regular schedule to the episodes?
-
I admit I was a little worried when I watched the third and fourth previews, but I liked it.
-
Fun fact, ep1 apparently was recorded before yellow.
-
Yeah, that's something people forget about VA's.
They usually get better.
It was the same in RvB too...
-
That was actually enjoyable, and left me wanting to see part 2. Now lets hope it doesn't cave in on itself.
-
Ruby stop being so cuteeeeeeee
-
The animation on the not-battle scenes irks me a little, especially of the head and mouth. But otherwise, it wasn't too bad. The fight was cool.
-
It's a little late to say this but
Yang Xiao Long
or Yellow...she is oriental, yet also western. Her hair being blonde, and is messy.
Also look at her personality profile.
From what is shown in the trailer, Yang is shown to be a bright and cheerful young lady who doesn't back down from any challenge. She's also witty, evident from her retort directed at Junior when they first met. She seems to enjoy fighting, as she is constantly smiling while doing battle. Yang seems confident in her abilities as well, going to the club by herself without any assistance, knowing that she would most likely have to fight her way out. It seems she likes to use force to get information out of people, shown when she grabbed Junior's genitals in order for him to reveal a certain girl's location. Yang may also be a little headstrong, as there were probably more tactful options she could have used to get more information out of Junior. Also, she charged into battle quickly without any provocation. This shows that she may not always use her head and just punch first, implying that she is reckless. However, she has shown that she uses her head sometimes, visible when engaging Melanie in a series of footwork fake-outs. Most notable however, is her attitude regarding her hair. When Junior pulled out some of her locks, Yang became extremely frustrated and delivered the final blow, implying she values her hair greatly. According to Yang's voice actor, Barbara Dunkelman, she was described by the writers as "the kind of person who would teach someone how to swim by pushing them in the water".
Does it reminds us of someone we know?

When I first saw the trailer back then, at some points of the video I would ask, "Marisa, what in the hell are you doing there?". Since at those 'some points', she actually looks a bit like Marisa.
With that being said...I guess I better make a fan art of Yellow wearing Marisa's clothes...but then again, who'd notice that it was Yellow in the first place? Let's try it out.
-
Ehhh ... I felt like the writing is really hit-or-miss. I can't quite articulate why; I'll have to think about this.
-
The first episode was about what I expected.
The criminal was pretty dumb. He sees that scyth and thinks to himself, "Yeah lets get involved here." He had no business in that fight. Anyway, the whole fight was actually kind boring in my opinion, maybe I'm spoiled on the trailers.
Ruby is about as annoying as I can handle a character being so that's nice. She's pretty bubbly, but she was able to calm down while speaking to the principle.
Yang... is probably not Ruby's biological sister, that just makes sense to me. The two look nothing a like.
-
Really excited to see how this series is gonna develop! I can totally see the criticisms that y'all've posted here, but I'm enjoying what's been coming out anyway and I'm still really excited for ep.2.
Noooo idea who my favorite character is yet.
-
Japanese dub role call plz.
##Vote Rie Kugimiya as Ruby.
-
It's a little late to say this but Yang Xiao Long
or Yellow...she is oriental, yet also western. Her hair being blonde, and is messy.
Also look at her personality profile.

But you forgot the most important difference - Yang has breasts!

In that case, Yuu Kobayashi as Yang.

Epesode 2 was, again, about what I expected as far as excitement goes.
The whole school for fighting thing always struck me as I dumb idea because the only way it works is if it's under-regulated beyond reason. Like, you wouldn't have a school like this unless you could reasonably insure that nothing would happen to endanger the students. However, we all know that the students are going to have to be put in danger for this story to be interesting. On the other hand, it does seem that these people are college age, which is awesome, so if it can make me believe that then it should all be good since getting into danger is something you can reasonably when in college.
Also, ewww, this world has classical elements. It's just such a dated idea to comprise your world of fire, water, wind, and whatever else you want. These things just don't equate when you really think about them.
I liked our new male character. I like his attitude, he seems humble and cautious. That's important because he's in the opening, so he'll probably get developed, which means he'll probably get some power and then not be an idiot about it. Also, the sword and shield is refreshingly simple in comparison to all the other weapons we've seen so far so I can't wait to see where that goes.
Blake seems fun too. I kinda hope that she turns out to be this humanitarian who's constantly trying to protect people's rights by buying free trade crystals or something. I'd be interesting.
-
Fanon: I keep seeing dust as "magical cocaine", it can give your weapon elemental powers or you could snort it and get it yourself. I bet Adam's headgear injects it straight into his bloodstream. How else was he capable of all those feats?
-
Dust, dust, dust, dust. Everyone likes dust... :V
---
Btw, about episode 2
Weiss' personality...was not as I expected it to be. I thought she'll be more of a rather shy girl.
-
The implied dust sure does sound like a performance altering drugs ain't it?
-
Maybe bit late on the party, but what you gonna do.
So far, I am liking this series. I think of the four character I like Ruby most for now. I also think that John is a good token "That One Guy" character.
-
omg ruby and arc are such adorable little dorks
-
So I found this danbooru (obligatory warning) pool (http://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/6777), of comics that were posted a few months ago. Its funny to see how much they missed Schnee.
-
Funny thing, I just saw the same comic on deviantart (http://lunarisfuryaileron.deviantart.com/gallery/) (recomenned viewing here since it has more comics than the danbooru link and few other stuff like gif version of one of the comics)
-
The way the shadows are warped sorta bother me, but I like it so far.
Vomit Dude's awkwardness is entertaining. I expected Weiss (or whatever her name is) to be more aloof than confrontational, too.
On a side note, is there going to be a fixed episode length?
-
episode 3 shipping when
-
...Is there some kind of a release schedule?
-
I think it's every Thursday, but I'm not certain if there's a set time.
-
Thanks, I'll try to keep an eye on it tonight then!
-
I'm enjoying this series too much.
Co-ed dorms... on futons... how progressive (I'd probably look into off campus options).
Blake plays the cynic but then becomes approachable when you talk about her book, nice. She obviously couldn't be a complete cynic but I appreciate how quickly they chose to change her mood.
Schnee is probably the most interesting character for me right now, which kinda sucks because I feel like her plot is going to take a little longer to get at. Ruby's trailer theme suggest that Schnee is under a lot of pressure and I'll bet there's another side of her under the side we see right now.
Blake is a close second only less so because I feel like she isn't much deeper then what we've seen in this episode and in her trailer (not that that's a bad thing). I'm interested in hearing her motivation as well.
...Not a lot of porn of this series.
-
...Is there some kind of a release schedule?
Every Friday Morning - Eastern
Every Thursday Night - Western

Give it time, the internet will catch up, hopefully.

I wish they'd have a fixed time length of an episode.

dis show is da bee's knees.
I do love the ending theme. Also Weiss is still my favourite even if she is a jerkface.
-
Episode 4 is confirmed, poor Jaune.
-
Updated first post.

joan being sassy to weiss is the best thing
-
Oh man, Jaune is the best.
And regarding the main post, shouldn't it be Thursdays Eastern Time?

Weiss has a case of the Chuuni

More like a case of the bitchi :v
-
The site wouldn't load last night at 8pm. DOS attack?
Ugh, well at least it's not a main character who's bringing too much pep to the show. Lea and Nora seem to have a good relationship, at least.
The strongest girl in class and the smartest girl in class. Wait, which is which.
Jaune was pretty good.
Can't quite get Pyrrha's angle. Is she oblivious to Weiss, or is she just used to people acting this way around her and tries to play it off cool?
Throw everyone off a cliff? Yeah I'm down for seeing how they'll live. We know Ruby and Yang can break their fall on a soft pillow of recoils. Jaune will probably be hoping to land on a soft tree. Everyone else, I have no idea.

Weiss will probably use her magical white circle thing she used in her trailer and Blake will just ninja through the trees. Everyone else, I don't really know :P.

Ninjaing through the trees doesn't stop you from breaking your legs after a fall. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if the Rule of Cool is a fundamental force in this universe (see Red trailer).
Good call on Weiss though.

I was wanting to do it myself but...

Finally it happened.

Is blonde dude just going to use his plain sword and shield for the entire series? I've got a feeling that he'll be the first to die and show everyone how dire the situation is or something.
oh no I am a terrible person
for some reason I prefer calling the series "rr-wubby". It's probably a me thing.
-

ACTUALLY...
Rwby's main main main character is Ruby.
And no, you're not the only one calling the series like that.

Sword and Shield is legit in Monster Hunter, he'll be fighting against monsters, no?
WMG: Jaune's idealistic personality will be shattered during the course of the conflict and his (former) friends must remind him how he used to be this dorky teenager with brimming smiles.
-
Well episode 5 is out now! And it's... 4:30 long...
...
Why...

Well actually looking over the episode it looks like Weiss is forcefully allying herself with Ruby because she doesn't have much choice. Also Pyhrra's way of landing is badass as all hell.

Why dodge the trees when you can just go through 'em?
Dammit Jaune stop being so amusing.
-
I'm curious to see how they justify the whole thing about picking the first team member.
I, really have to call fowl on Ruby's landing. This scyth is expected to cut through much worse things then wood with much less speed then is gained by an areal faith plate. Yet here it is a grappling hook. Sorry, not buying it.
I see why Yang put on the aviators, why bother landing?
So Pyhrra actually did like Jaune and wasn't just trying to let him off easy. Ok.

Maybe the scythe isn't sharp at the base of the blade?
-
Maybe the scythe isn't sharp at the base of the blade?
Maybe, she does also stand on that part of the scythe in the trailer. However, she was also moving fast. I dunno, it just doesn't look right to me.
-
It's not sharp at the base, no, and most of the time in the Red trailer she actually didn't really cut anything cleanly without a bullet for added oomph.
-
Find myself wishing the episode weren't so short, felt like it stopped at a bad time for me.
Maybe, she does also stand on that part of the scythe in the trailer. However, she was also moving fast. I dunno, it just doesn't look right to me.
Maybe she used the base of the weapon where there isn't a blade at. Though I do like the idea of a weapon that doesn't kill unless she wants it to.
-
HOLD YOUR HORSES. I GOT THIS.
The scythe has two parts.
The Scythe has a small, jagged blade at the bottom of the shaft.
The other is the 3-dimensional curvature.
(http://puu.sh/43xMD.png)
Also let's not forget this is a gun-scythe that has the ability to transform to two modes. So everything about it is flexible, and has movable parts.
(http://puu.sh/43xNh.png)
(and I would love if they gave a more in-depth info about their weapons).

CASE CLOSED
-
@Firestorm29, with a weapon like that, I almost want her to have to live with the burden of responsibility for a weapon that kills indiscriminately. Oooo That might be a really cool plot point to separate herself from her "I fan girl over my weapon" thing (not that it necessarily needs to happen, just that she needs to get closer to people). Have her to mess up at some point, and maul a bystander so that she has to deal with the idea of "Holy shit, who thought it'd be a good idea to give this to me".
Eh, I guess a hesitance to use over the top weapons really isn't way people are watching this show.
@En: I am Sniper Scythe guy, and THIS, is my weapon. She weighs 150 kilograms and fires $200 custom-tooled cartridges at 10,000 rounds per minute. It cost $400,000 to fire this weapon...for 12 seconds.
A set of "Meet the weapon" videos would be pretty cool though.
Also, everything that is gray on the scythe looks like its a cutting surface.
-
Also, everything that is gray on the scythe looks like its a cutting surface.
Well, if we think about this based on real swords, and blades. There's no such thing as a painted blade now is there?
The only part that looks like a blade is the one at the end of the scythe. Since it has a metallic color, it's made from steel(or presumably alloy, like carbon steel, or damascus steel. Since it's advance, it's not likely they'll just use ordinary metallurgy.).
Also isn't 150kg a tad bit too much? I mean, I've been going to the gym, and can barely bench press 200 lbs weights(around 100kg). Then again...fiction and fantasy. :V
-
You know, it would be great if the series actually had any action in it soon, after all, it seems that's what it should be best at. I thought this episode will finally have some, but nope.
-
I bet all the Dota 2 invites in my inventory that there will be action in the next episode. If not, I will walk over to RT HQ (Yes, Edinburgh to Austin.) and ask Monty a legitimate question about why episodes are so short and hope for a good answer.

We can all see where this is going.

Yeah, Jaune's and idiot. I still have faith in him. I love how we have no idea what Ruby was doing, flying in at the end?

It's obvious Weiss dear launched her with her magic cirkulz
-
Now that's the sorta fight scene we were all looking for, ignoring everything else.
-
Oh my God why is Nora so great.
-
Whoever said that Jaune will be the strategist might be a tad on to something.
Meanwhile Roman continues to hoard his Magical Cocaine, or they terror-bomb Beacon.
-
OH MY GOD.
I think I know how and why Juane was accepted to Beacon Academy.
Also, seriously Weiss' abilities are awesome, sliding powers ftw.
-
Everyone get to work making Nora gifs. NAOW.
This episode was so good it surpasses the bee's knees.
-
Finally, this was the episode I was waiting for.
-
I also loved this last episode. I also thought it was neat how they had another team formed before the RWBY and JNPR groups were announced. Puts faces to those black masses from the launch pad, instead of making it look like they were just fodder for a body count.
And Nora is friggen awesome.
-
AmI the only one who doesn't really like Nora? I mean, yes,her weapon is a grenate launcher-hammer, but her behavior before the big battle made me dislike her.
It was nce to see Jaune do something. He might not be a good fighter, but can atleast give command.
-
Episode 9: The Badge and The Burder (http://roosterteeth.com/archive/?id=8075)
Wait, when did Weiss get that scar? Peter Port (the teacher) looks familiar somehow. And how are you going to wield that axe-blunderbuss? Also, something tells me that one random student is going to be a running gag
-
Wait, when did Weiss get that scar?
Watch the Weiss Trailer.
Oh and srz... a"Continuity Error" in the episode? If anyone was decent enough, they should notice that.
-
Watch the Weiss Trailer.
Huh. I guess I forgot about that, even if the method isn't the usual way. And I guess this was the first time I really noticed she had one.
-
Error probably on purpose?

Also anyone else notice how Weiss' breast size changes

I wonder when Rooster Teeth will release those pictures used in the ending theme. I really want them for desktop backgrounds. Or have they already been released?

11: Jaunedice (http://roosterteeth.com/archive/?id=8135 Episode)
So there are multiple academies, huh? And the Aura can work as a health bar. And if Velvet becomes a subject for a lot of abuse, you might aswell call her Reisen the 3rd
-

Yea...ugh...like the academy Ruby went that she mentioned in episode 1.

Signal and Sanctum are schools for students younger than 17. I wouldn't expect students from there to compete with Beacon students in anything, Ruby's gradehopping notwithstanding.

Episode 12 (http://roosterteeth.com/archive/?id=8162)
Jaune has it rough, just BREAK HIS LEGS!
-
-cute bunny girl makes a repeat appearance-
yessssss chaore approves
-
Hmm. I still think these non-action episodes aren't really the best, especially when it comes to animation. This episode felt like if it was animated by someone doing a short in Garry's mod. Actually, I think the teacher's (non-)animation was the best. Seems like the creator can't really animate anything well just fight scenes. I mean, sure, animation is hard and takes a long time, but it just feels off when those scenes seemingly needing less animation are worse than those that would need better skill.
On the other hand, I do like that there seems to be some character fleshing out going on, but still, they seem to be very bland. I'm actually afraid of this show being cancelled (if there's such stuff on that site) before it can show off its true potential.
-
GOTTA GO FAST

RAGE!!! That's it? Cardin's threat is telling people that Jaune faked his transcript? The school admins already think Jaune's transcripts are legit, evidenced by the fact that he's at the school. Cardin could have a voice recording of Jaune saying that he faked the transcripts, and the character witness of every buddy he can find and it still wouldn't be enough to have Jaune kicked out.
These characters are the age of High School Seniors. They should pretty much have the level of maturity of a real world adult. What I've seen in the last two episodes really lowered my excitement. These conflicts are trivial and these characters are juvenile, but god damn I'm gonna keep watching.
-
I dunno if I've ever heard 'high school seniors' and 'maturity of a real world adult' in the same sentence before like that Imosa. That's a pretty arbitrary designation.
-
I get the feeling Ozpin already knows, and made Jaune a team leader to put him in a position to improve how he needs to to live up to his patriarchal tradition of heroic hunters. That said, if that's 'all he ever wanted in life', why hasn't he taken combat training sooner? And if Phyrra noted that he has a tremendous amount of aura, shouldn't he be some kind of super?tank character? ...it's probably linked to confidence or something.
-

People act on a wide range of maturity levels. These characters don't need to be serious all the time, not even some of the time, but how Cardin gets away with his behavior is just baffling.

Maybe. I figured that they know the transcript is faked, but they admitted him because he underestimated his other qualities.
I think there's a class issue here. Jaune and his family don't have the money for a fancy weapon, combat school, maybe not even Beacon. Everyone else, with the exception of maybe Blake, seems to have pretty good financial backing.
Also yeah, aura is probably confidence dependent or something.
-
if that's 'all he ever wanted in life', why hasn't he taken combat training sooner?
Maybe lack of resources? Everyone around him seems to be at least well-off if not plain rich.
Seems like the standard underdog-but-born-leader deal to me
All I know is it needs more Reisen
-
Yea, I'm in on the the idea they know the transcripts are faked, too. Ozpen seems like he's the kind of guy who really doesn't mind bending the rules for talent which Juane seems to have plenty of. I think that Aura might be related to confidence at some level like if you think you can't do something, you usually find some way to sabotage yourself.
-
Episode 14: Forever Fall - Part 2 (http://roosterteeth.com/archive/?id=8208)
Well, looks like Jaune finally did something. Also, Pyrrha's ability explains a few things.
-
That was by far in my opinion the
most cliche episode ever
At least the end was kind of unpredicted on my part. I thought they would have kissed. Heck it would be better if they kissed so people can stop shipping whatever is left of johnnyboy and ruby
-
Episode 15: The Stray (http://roosterteeth.com/archive/?id=8268)
Fan theory was confirmed...BIG TIME. Anyways, I have found a new favorite character, and it's not the one who appears first. It's Penny...methinks she be a Sentry Tur Robot. If not, still fine by me.
I've been playing too much TF2.
-
Lambda-11 has joined the fight!
Also I couldn't stop flipping out over GUNCHUCKS
-
Ugh, I'm getting way too much into the RWBY community on Reddit. Ugh, so much of this show is annoying me but I just really want to see more cool weapons.
-
Hopefully Monty has had his dry run and that he'll know what to do for next volume.
Btw, That's a BIG Ursa! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQLQVWVM9_0) || This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMvnjUphKYo) is canon, he really DOES have the skills.

I bring back this thread from the Abyss to state that there's a second season and I want a discussion about it. :P
No really, there are a lot of changes the most notable of which is Background characters have color now
-
oh shit i forgot
i should probably watch it!
-
Also, episodes are much more longer. Which I like.
-
I forgot this was supposed to come out and WHAT THE EPISODES ARE LONGER THAN FIVE MINUTES I MUST BE DREAMING
-
Ya'll should see the latest episode.
Animals confirmed!

I haven't watched any of the new episodes. Might as well, considering it's longer. :V

/Extra Bump/
For anyone still watching the series and follows it(Not me though). I'm afraid to say, Monty Oum died on Feb 1st.
He went into a short coma after going through a routine medical procedure that proceeded him having severe allergic reaction, then died afterwards because of the allergic reaction.
I don't know if RWBY and RvB will continue, but if it will, it'll most likely be greatly affected with Oum's death.
https://www.reddit.com/r/roosterteeth/comments/2ujhnm/monty_oum_has_passed_away/
-
RISE FWOM YOUR GWAVE
Yes, they are going to continue this, and Monty was open enough to have outlines reaching to Volume 5. Our only concern is having a new Monty-like animator to take his place, not many people can get his style right.
Also, he died doing what he loved and living his dream. May we be inspired to achieve our own dreams and creative wills.
-
That is a relief. I'm really happy to know all of his ideas and work are still being put to work even after death.
-
I'll have to tune in extra hard next time the series gets up and running again. Not just for the sake of watching something enjoyable, but also to pay my respects to the man who wrote it.
