Actually all music was done by the same people. Casey Williams was about 12-14 when she did the first songs for the show (now she is 24 still singing here) and not that long ago she was promoted to main compositor (previous was her father)
She is amasing
she is very amazing i agree
Isn't the compositor for the show now (or at least for the volume 9 opening) Martin Gonzalez?
@@romeolautarosimoni9674I think just on volume 9
@@romeolautarosimoni9674 A mix of the two afaik, He's in the same band as her that helps out with the songs too. They're both credited ^^
He was also the amazing guitar player
Half of these theories are actually so spot on and the other half are in a dimension of their own 😂 As a huge RWBY fan I'm so happy to see more people get into this series and check it out!
Seriously. Not gonna spoil anything, but in particular - if they do watch the whole series, they need to hit a point in season 6 and come back to these. Amazing haha!
O love how many of their paired questions can just be answer with... yes
@@bulletsandbracelets4140 and when talking about dimensions they need to come back once they start volume 9!
@@bulletsandbracelets4140 if they even make it through vol 5 😂
@@toshido_yamada I think the seasons get better and better from 4 on so I'm not one to agree with you there lol. I hope people don't turn them off the later seasons and let them form their own opinions.
All the RWBY characters are inspired by Fairy Tale characters and settings. Whether it be their character arcs and personalities are defined by the real life fairy tale equivalent or it’s as simple as “hey this character is Goldilocks because she has blonde hair”.
Yang also fights Ursa, ALOT
@@DeadLog Junior, the mafia boss that runs the nightclub where Yang hangs out a lot is based on the baby bear from Goldilocks
😢
they also are all based colors
@@nim4464 team rwby, yes. All the characters, no. 99% of characters that have fight scenes are based on fairy tale or historical figures. This theme gets amplified in volume 9.
“Is rwby the group or the main character?”
Yes
24:04 RWBY does have the vibe of "I am going to defeat you with the power of friendship and this gun I found!"
It was really interesting to hear how you tried to make sense of the chaotic openings. I promise they make sense in the context in the show lol.
They really do. Can you belive that people call these spoilers. Fairy Tail has spoiler intros, this isn't
Trying to guess the plot on opening alone makes this extremely comedic lol As a RWBY fan I was frustrated ever since the first opening you wouldn't scrap the initial plot based off new information but it did get progressively funnier. I feel like the story you crafted sounds like Halo, Doom, and a dash of Uwu girl
For RWBY, it's an anagram, both towards their names and their colors. R = Ruby Rose. W = Weiss Schnee. B = Black Belladonna. Y = Yang Xiao Long(Ruby's half sister)
Blake Belladonna. Now blake means black in old English 1000 years ago
Acronym*
Anagram is when letters are mixed up to form a new word, acronym is using the first letters of a series of words to represent a long name
@@emeryldkitsune Oops. Yeah, that.
@@jeffreysmith236 and i believe if im correct Weiss is white in German
@@_Skarz_ yes, the op is correct
You guys got stuck on this parallel world idea and it's so funny. Just 1 world until the last volume. And the guy you think is flip flopping sides is just a villain. Bro led an army and was a direct opponent to 2 of the main characters. I suggest watching the 4 Rwby Trailers. You'll get the idea from them.
At first I was lie "man yall have to scrap this hell/heaven scenario by opening 4" But the deeper they doubled the down the more I'm like just cracking up at the frankenstien monster they created. like some Doom, Halo, Uwu girl disaster lol
And the obsession with kidnapping. Bruh. 😂
@@MegaDuke4life honestly I found it hilarious how instead of thinking "man maybe the hell world theory is wrong" they instead decided to double down and try to figure out how everything connects to it despite there being no evidence for it at all.
@@lizard1255 It's honestly like the baked conversations my stoner friends have... It's double, triple, and quadruple down...
After the amazing volume 9 finale Im excited for the reactions
Also RoosterTeeth is super open to reactions to rwby so no need to blir the screen for rwby
You guys tend to take stuff way too much at face value haha. Sometimes in openings, things are artistic decisions so people falling could mean things are spiralling and going bad. If their flying maybe it means things are going well. The city dissipating doesn’t mean it’s actually disappearing like that in the show, it might just mean a negative thing is going on at the place they are at. Tho one thing to remember is that most things in RWBY, mostly characters, are based on Fairy tales like the little red riding hood, or (indeed) alice in wonderland.
Though honestly, stuff from the Volume 5 opening onwards are very literal. Giant Salem shows up in front of Team RWBY? Actually happens. Team RWBY fall through the world? Actually happens. Alyx turning into Ruby? Ehhh...
@@yelloturkey You just disproved yourself with the last example lol
Shhhsssshhhh
Having them blind reacting would be more entertaining
@@yelloturkey there's a mix of actual and metaphorical in all the openings. The only opening that is almost entirely literal is V9 but even that isn't 100% literal.
@@lizard1255 Yeah, that was the joke I was trying to make haha
Your theories are so entertaining to listen to! some wildly off the mark but you got a good few things really close ngl 👀 Your attention to detail is really good and will pay off if you ever decide to watch the show. It's a fun watch with a rollercoaster of emotions
It was really wild, ran the whole gamut from "what are they even saying" to "...holy mackerel they just wrote the show" which is really the most entertaining kind of RWBY OP reaction.
I love all these predictions and interpretations, hope you enjoy the show if you decide to react to it. Lots of dope music and epic story, welcome to the FNDM
The series was made by an American studio (Rooster Teeth), so it's in English and all the music is in English, too. Ironically, back when it first came out, a lot of people demanded to get the "original Japanese with subtitles" because they couldn't even tell it wasn't a Japanese production; eventually it did get official Japanese _dubbing,_ though, so you *could* watch it dubbed into Japanese, then subbed *back* into English for max irony.
Now, there's huge debate over what does or doesn't qualify as Anime; lots of people will insist that shows like RWBY or ATLA don't qualify as Anime because they weren't produced in Japan. The argument hinges on the idea that, in order to be _genuine_ Anime, it must be produced _in_ Japan, _by_ a Japanese studio; even if the exact same show were made by the exact same techniques, if it's made outside Japan then it isn't genuine Anime, it's just Sparkling Animation. I... do _not_ subscribe to that philosophy, which I refer to as the "Champanime" argument. It isn't like Champagne or Parmigiano Reggiano that has a regional trademark, and it leads to strange corner cases. What if a notable Japanese studio, lets say Mappa, decides to move out of Japan and set up shop in California. But they produce the exact same shows with the exact same techniques by the exact same people. Do the shows they make suddenly stop qualifying as Anime? What if they stayed in Japan, but gradually hired more and more non-Japanese staff until Mappa eventually was predominantly a mix of Koreans and Americans; do their shows stop qualifying as Anime because they are no longer made by Japanese artists and producers? What if an American company goes and sets up shop in Japan and hires Japanese residents to run the studio, but makes Western-style shows; do those shows count as Anime since they're made "in Japan by Japanese staff"?
I think the only real criteria that should determine whether a show qualifies as an Anime, *especially* in the modern, globally interconnected world, is whether you can look at it and say, "This gives me the impression of an Anime." If it has the aesthetic, motif, mood, themes, and characterizations typical of what we, in the West, expect when we think of "Anime", then it should qualify as an Anime no matter where it comes from or who made it.
And that's why wafku is one of my favourite anime.
But that's not fair to shows like Link Click, or Mo Dao Zu Shi, which are Donghua. Animation from China, with a very similar art style, although less known then anime. I used to believe that anime is just a term for all animation with that art style. And technically it is, but then I started watching Donghua, and started noticing the difference. I think what makes anime anime is that it's Japanese. It's culture is Japanese, and all the jokes are clearly Japanese. Even if it's made in another country, it's clearly trying to mimic the story style and joke style of Anime. At least to the style of "Anime." And even Donghua has some similarities to anime, but that doesn't make it Anime. They're still vastly different. I mean just watch a few episodes of certain Donghua, and you'll see how different they are. Especially since, Donghua are based off of Chinese culture. I'm not saying that RWBY isn't an anime, but I am saying to say that EVERY animation with a similar style to anime is anime. Because it's not always true. You have to think about how a country's culture and language can affect the mood and plot of the stories. Especially Donghua. I hope I didn't come off like I was arguing with you. I'm not, I just really love this topic and love to talk about it and point people towards the niche medium that is Donghua.
You guys are Great! I think you would be Excellent RWBY Reactors if you choose to do this show. Good news is, Rooster Teeth (the company that makes this show) are VERY Reactor friendly and will let you react to the entire show without having to cut it down for copy right (within some guidelines). And Yes, the Music is an ESSENTIAL part of the show as it provides all kinds of information about the character, their backstories and their inner thoughts. Go for it! Start reacting to the show beginning with the Red, White, Black and Yellow Trailers. You won't be disappointed.
Not hating, just thought it was really funny that you were Hard on the “Alternate Realities” theory for everything except the Alice in Wonderland Volume.
I just found you reacting to this and I think it’s really cool! It’s my favorite anime ever and I’m glad you’re enjoying it too. Here’s some helpful things to know going into this.
Highly suggest to watch the Red, White, Black, and Yellow trailers (in that order) first before starting volume 1.
You don’t need to worry about editing some of the show out. Rooster Teeth loves people reacting to their stuff. If you do run into a copyright issue with UA-cam you can appeal and rooster teeth will clear it up asap.
Every weapon in here is basically part melee and part gun.
The animation does improve as they get more budget.
With that being said welcome to RWBY!
Thank you for providing the information so I do not have to.👍
Love that you guys reacted to this💖 very this show doesn't get as much love as it deserves and is kinda underrated so, appreciate the reaction😊
“IT’S TIME TO REACH!”
That was hilarious to see how wildly off y’all were, and yet what you were spot on for.
With their theories of what the show is, I'm curious what they would think about the crossover with the Justice League.
As a side note, just so you guys know, the first four trailers are canon to the actual story of the series. There's also another canon trailer set between seasons 3 and 4. There's also the World of Remnant videos that go with this that I highly recommend seeing. They're creative explanations of the World of Remnant that they live on.
I'm pretty sure all 9 character trailers are canon
@@PoppyIsMyMetalQueen 9 character trailers? There’s only 4 trailers
@@AnimeRecksYou They’ve added more in later Volumes.
@@AnimeRecksYou there's the original 4 trailers, then we get A red trailer in volume 4, then a yellow, black, and white trailer in 5, then an Adam trailer in 6.
So yeah, 9 total.
As a rwby fanfuck the world of remnant
Fun fact, every character in RWBY is somehow based on some sort of fairytale, or nursery rhyme. For example the main 4 are red riding hood, snow white, beauty and the best, and goldilocks.
The Knight was actually a Summon, Weiss's family has the ability to call forth the Grimm they have defeated, with the Arma Gigas being her big test from her Debut Trailer. During the Early Volumes figuring out Summoning was a a big challenge for her
All characters are colour coded and their names are based on the colours they represent. Ruby Rose is red, Weiss Schnee is white, Blake Belladonna is black (Like the belladonna flower) and Yang Xiao Long (which roughly means Little Sunshine Dragon) being yellow. RWBY is their team and is composed of the 4 main characters first letters, R-Ruby, W-Weiss, B-Blake, Y-Yang. RWBY, when sounded out, also sounds like Ruby to emphasize that Ruby Rose is the absolute main protagonist here even though there's a big focus on their group as a whole.
This colour naming rule extends to every character in the entire series (IIRC?) and is a pretty cool concept imo.
These ideas... would make a pretty neat AU Fanfic.
Loved how many correct ideas you completely stumbled into.
For example, there are characters called Ruby, Emerald, Amber and Saph (though it’s not short for sapphire). But they’re completely unrelated characters and the gemstone names are more to do with colour-naming being popular in Remnant.
Your theories sound like a fun story by itself 😂 we need this
RWBY is so good you guys should definitely react to the show & RWBY does stand for their names and the colors, red, white, black , yellow & the first letter is the first of their names like Ruby Rose, Weiss, Blake, & Yang
RWBY is not an anime, it's an American animated series by Rooster Teeth. The creator, Monty Oum, created a character trailer by himself as a proof of concept for the combat, and then once the group decided to pursue the idea they created three more trailers together to introduce the other main characters. The show started out with a very small animation budget and grew more and more popular over time
If you want to, check out those four initial trailers, you can learn a bit about the show and the main characters!
There is an RWBY anime, but just ignore that and stick with the american show :D
@@UggunSpace yep! Just for context, the anime is a spinoff/adaptation of the main show, the American one came first
@@UggunSpace The RWBY anime isn't too bad. The spots where it recapped the original series, yeah, that was bad, no question. But, the new story parts? Those were good. ....but yeah, the recapped parts on the anime were terribly done.
@@UggunSpace the show also loves to give you homework. Like season 9 your gonna wanna read roman holiday. And season 10....After The Fall is probally gonna be required reading material.
It’s an American anime imo I started showing it to my dad we finished RWBY Vol 1 2 days ago
The music is made by a father/daughter team. She was only 13 when the show started. The father retired recently, and now the daughter does the music with the guitarist from her band. They're called Ok Goodnight
have... have these guys never heard of fantasy that isn't isakai????
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
I love when people react to all the openings, but I also kinda hate it cause spoilers
Yeah.... the volume 4 op in particular shows a lot
@@ShirouBrando the thing with spoilers is if you don't know what's a spoiler, you don't really retain a ton of stuff. Like yeah sure there's spoilers in all the openings like [redacted] not being there, but that's not something you'd notice without context. Largest spoiler I'd say is Salem since she has a very different design and is immediately noticeable, also since she's supposed to be secret until V3.
@@lizard1255 Largest spoiler is Yang's arm imo, V4 opening shows her without it
I love RWBY! the final opening is wtf if u dont see the show haha
It's funny see you guys speculate, but now I want a show based on your theories 😂
The dimensions there is funny as hell cuse that don't happen until 9
This is like the 5th reaction of these openings i have seen and no one notices Yang is missing an arm.
It's incredible how just someones first time reacting to rwby will just summon the entire fandom to trivia drop about the show
And also you don't have to worry about copyright. RWBY and the its studio is fine with full reactions on UA-cam as long as the vid is the ep one week before the current ep
Free advertisement for them
Edit: S9 is not the final season/volume, only the latest one
Should definitely watch the Rwby Red, White, Black, and Yellow trailers in that order. Very good stuff.
Holy lord y’all really need to just watch the series to understand what’s going on LOL. The whole getting kidnapped to another dimension, the gem stuff, etc is WAYYYY off. 😂
I love how they have all the typical villains
Vengeance based villain
Insane murderer villain
Evil hacker villain
Saved by a villain thus loyal to them villain
Evil Queen villain
Welcome to the Rwby series. If you do start reacting to the rest of it, please start with the 'Rwby trailers' and then to the episodes themselves just to get yourselves comfortable. Most of Rwby's inspirations are based off fairy tales that we have, however in their own spin off versions. From there, they create stories and plot twists for Ruby and her team to get through.
As of now, Volume 9 has just had its season finale and is now on hiatus for an indefinite time, due to Warner Bros. now owning RoosterTeeth Productions. So it will 'TBD' if the series gets 'green-lit' for its Volume 10. That being said, a good time to get into the series slowly as you wish. Just a heads up, this started as a fan project that was given the opportunity to start from within the company itself, so it'll have a rough start with animation and dialogue, so bare with it if possible.
We’re reacting the trailers tomorrow!
Here’s the names of the opening themes so you can listen to them later:
This Will Be The Day (opening 1)
Time to Say Goodbye (opening 2)
When it Falls (opening 3)
Let’s Just Live (opening 4)
The Triumph (opening 5)
Rising (opening 6)
Trust Love (opening 7)
For Every Life (opening 8)
Inside (opening 9)
They’re all bangers for sure, but my favorites are the last two
RWBY is called that because it's an acronym. Red, White, Black, Yellow, R W B Y. It's also short for the characters' names, Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang.
Your reactions were so entertaining. I loved all your initial theories even though most of them are wrong but enjoyable nonetheless. I do hope you get to start on the series soon! I guarante that it'll be a wild ride.
Edit: guarantee
Since most characters are based off of fairytales, there are a lot of references. The last volume is alice in wonderland themed as you found out
There's a game called Honkai Impact which has some animated shorts that would be good to react to. They are fine with people reacting to them too. So no need to hide or make the screen transparent if you do watch them.
"Is this Alice in wonderland?" bro got it immediately lol
This was originally just a 3d animated web series with a heavy anime look but over time as it’s popularity grew it actually became an anime. This shows story is crazy but a fun ride
If you watch this I’d suggest watching the Red, White, Black, and Yellow trailer first. Just know that rooster teeth is fine with people reacting to their content so no need to edit or clip their content
I like that they went in it blind, like somethigs they got really close but they just doubled down on the alternate dimensions thing and went with it.
watch the show and check what you got right and wrong, you might like it
RWBY isn't anime, but there is an anime RWBY: Hyousetsu Teikoku (Ice Queendom) that was made based of this series
39:57 Yes!!! That's exactly what it's supposed to be.
Red, White, Black, Yellow. Ruby, Wiess, Blake, Yang. R.W.B.Y.
Also everything is also a gun. Each weapon is also a gun. scythe=sniper, sword=smg, rapier=revolver, gauntlet=shotgun
hand
gun
The openings are relevant to the show and give hints. And are called back to in future episodes.
The writing can be uneven but the creators do have a way with playing with your emotions.😢
Despite a lot of the key areas missed, you manage to hook onto certain story beats in weird ways.
It's called RWBY because it's based around "Team Rwby" made up of 4 main characters. Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang. Red, White, Black, Yellow.
Please react to the episodes, it's going to be SOOOO entertaining!! Looking forward to it ❤
Please reactions tô durarara ops and eds is amazing please for Brazilian fã of this Channel and anime
Now, do this again but LISTEN TO THE LYRICS. They actually set up each season's theme.
Love your crazy theories, but the different worlds/dimensions are mostly symbolic, not literal. You should react to the original RWBY trailers: Red, White, Black and Yellow.
I love this. Please take care not to pay attention to the comments going forward if you decide to watch this show. This fandom is awful about spoilers.

Monogatari openings, please
It's kind of surreal seeing Chase and Sky skirt on spotting actual revelations
Edit: I highly recommend watching the 4 RWBY trailers, as they give a good amount of info on the characters and their world
Awesome video. If you want to watch the whole RWBY series you need to watch the 4 trailers first (Red, White, Black, and Yellow). Glad to see you enjoying this, I love RWBY so much.
Oh, and though as someone said, there's no other world till the latest season... the second of the four starting trailers makes it seem like there is. But in truth, in the second trailer, it's not another world but is in fact a flashback instead. Just to give ya a head's up.
YES!! It's one single band for 8 seasons. And the singer had 12 yo I'm the first opening.
The LAST is a different band 'cause she has her own band now and before she was singing for her dad's band. But still the same girl and style.
I recommend watching rwby (you can watch it unedited) and after each season you should come back and see how far off you were each season XD
So Close, yet So Far. Watching you guys theory crafting about my favorite show of the last half Century (yes I'm that old) is so much fun. I hope you decide to watch the show, because it is such a Roller Coaster of emotions and character development. Have fun!
One thing, this show shamelessly steals from Fairytales, History, Legend, Myth, Literature and Art. Turns them on their heads and creates something magical.
Fun Fact: When Roosterteeth was designing the world of remnant they were in an ihop eating breakfast or lunch I think and they were stuck on how to make the map so I think it was Joel he literally had a blob of ketchup on a napkin folded said napkin and pulled it open and the smudge the ketchup made thus became the world of remnant
It was actually the show’s creator (aka Monty) who did the ketchup in a napkin thing ^^
@@jannyvoorhees23 oooooo see i thought it was someone else this whole time ty
Is it RWBY because of a person? A group? A color? All yess lol
I'd suggest watching the RWBY Red, White, Black, and Yellow Trailers. They aren't the normal spoilery trailers that show you scenes from the show, they're more detatched demonstrations of the characters abilities and fighting styles.
Also like some others said, this was originally an online web series so the episodes in the first few "Volumes" (What they call Seasons) are short, and was mostly a mix of comedy and action (the animation kicks up a lot when it comes to action scenes).
It's so interesting hearing people trying to work out the show from the openings.😂 hearing you get so close yet so far. Hope you end up watching the show.
And this is why you look up the basic info of a series before trying to react to it... Also metaphors and symbolism are a thing, they get used often in openings in all the things.
I do hope you guys watch Rwby someday too. Will also say, don't try to think too much into the openings for it, cause there's a lot more than you think to it and overthinking about it will make things more confusing to ya. :P
I really have to try this on an anime I don't know lol. I'm a big time RWBY fan i'm like omg throughout all of this.
"Is it a group of people, is it a persons name?"
Yes
Rwby is an animated show, not an anime. They did make a RWBY anime called RWBY: Ice Queendom
them: trying to piece together the story
volume 9: im about to end these mans whole careers
i do love that you guys picked up on the alice in wonderland stuff, because volume 9 is heavily based on it
bruh y'all gotta watch the Red White Black and Yellow trailers and the show please! Volume 9 (the most recent season) just ended, and it would be cool to follow your reactions to the actual story being portrayed! (Y'all were WAY off the mark with some theories xD)
Ngl I'd love to watch your guys version of the show. Hoping you react to it though!
"is this alice in wonderland? like what" No its Alyx in wonderland
This was soo enjoyable to watch fellas, you guys are pretty close on some calls and way off the mark on others. I've been down with Rwby since before the creator passed away so any questions you have I and others members of the community can answer without spoiling.
RWBY is world of fairy tail characters reimagined in a world of bloody evolution.
Ruby Rose is Little Red Riding Hood fighting monsters and questioning her choices, always trying to live up to her mother - Summer Rose.
Weiss Schnee is Snow White fighting to restore honor to her family name/company , a name stained by her father greedy Jacques Schnee (nee Gelee) (whose name means Jack Frost). A company started by Nicholas Schnee (Santa Claus)
Belladonna Blake is animal-trait Faunus - the beauty in Beauty and the Beast - who once followed Adam Taurus (the beast half - samurai with red hair). Her group the White Fang was original a Faunus rights group under Ghira Belladonna (Bagheera the Panther from Jungle Book), but it became a terrorist organization under Sienna Kahn (Shere Kahn the Tiger from Jungle Book). She left the violence of the Fang to become a Huntress to help people.
Yang Xiao Long (whose name meaning sunny dragon) is Ruby's half-sister, whose missing mother is Raven Branwen (named after the Goddess of Death). She has the golden hair of goldilocks and fights a gangster called Little Bear in Chinese.
The school is run by Professor Ozpin (wizard of Oz) and Glyda Goodwitch (Glynda the Goodwitch), and there allies are Ruby and Yang's Uncle Qrow Branwen (unlucky scarecrow) and James Ironwood (military cyborg general Tin Woodsman). Cowardly lion Leonardo Lionheart was true coward.
The black-haired fiery woman is Cinder Fall - an evil version of Cinderella who murdered her abused Madam and Madam's daughters. She also killed her Prince.
They were so close and yet so far on it all lol
I'm just a simple guy,if I see Rwby reaction,I click the like button immediately and might join your membership (if you have it)
My boy has A LOT of imagination.
these theories are slowly breaking me
Heres a slight hint for why things in Season 9 are so weird, take a look at what they call the Seasons/Episodes. Because thats not what theyre called, theyre called Volume/Chapter, as though its a storybook.
this is unironically the best reaction/ blind theory video ive ever watched haha
its so good and funny
The Volume 9 opening is one hell of an acid trip, especially with no context.
In The fourth opening the yellow girl is depresso expresso because she lost an arm
Really fun to hear your thoughts when you have not seen the show
Regarding the comment of you saying that the music is a banger. Casey and her father Jeff do all the music (Jeff stopped doing the music in Volume 9).
Also each Volume has an OST and every song has very important lyrics regarding the show.
There's an episode where they explain the lore behind the shattered moon so if you're just curious and wanna know why it's shattered like that you can watch that episode BUT if you plan on binging the whole series of RWBY ignore this comment.
R.W.B.Y. :
Ruby - Red (Red Riding Hood) (Petal Burst/Speed) (Sniper/Scythe)
Weiss - White (Snow White) (Glyphs/Summoning) (Dust Rapier)
Blake - Black (Belle/Beast) (Shadow Clones) (SMG Pistol/Sword)
Yang - Yellow (Goldy Locks) (Burn/Strength Boost) (Shotgun Gauntlets)
J.N.P.R. :
Jaune - (Jean de Arc) (Aura Amplify) (Sword & Shield)
Nora - (Thor) (Electrical Channeling) (Grenade Launcher/Hammer)
Pyrrah - (Achilles) (Magnetism) (Spear/Sword/Musket)
Renn - (Mulan) (Masking/Emotion Supression) (Dual Bladed SMG)
Cinder - (Cinderella) (Super Heating) (Glass Weapony)
Emerald - (Aladdin) (Mental Manipulation) (Kama/Pistols)
Mercury - (Hermes) (None) (Gatling Legs)
Neopolitan - (Icecream) (Illusions) (Umbrella)
Without context the last opening must make absolutely no sense to you.
It' such a weird season of the show, but in hindsight it makes a lot os sense. And yes, like a lot of things in the show it's actually inspired by the wizard of oz, but weirdly enouh it makes sense within the lore too.
Not sure this is needed since I'm 2 months late to the party... 😋
1) Not an anime, it's an American animation company
2) RWBY are the initials of the 4 main characters' first names
3) The style changes are due to upgrades in budget and, later, animation programs.
4) RE opening 5, I'm not sure where Sky got the idea mask guy was on the MCs' side, he was standing next to the big guy shown standing with the demon looking woman in Opening 4, and later shown fighting with 2 of Ruby's friends (you even commented on him soloing them)
5) Technically, the platforms are White's ability, she can just others use them as well
6) for all 9 openings (and the majority of the other songs in the soundtracks) the singer has been a very talented young woman named Casey Williams (Her father was composer for the first 8 volumes, but handed that job over to Casey for volume 9 and going forward)
7) Volume 7 opening; the guy on the screen? You've seen him several times before in other openings (the beard is new)
8) yeah, (I haven't seen it yet but) Volume 9 is pretty trippy from what I hear.
9) Your plot idea took a wrong turn at Albuquerque during the 1st opening and never turned back 🤣
10) as someone else said, you are _far_ to literal in your analysis of the openings. 🙄 You are familiar with the concepts of metaphor and allegory, right? 😋
anime recommendations: Neon Genesis Evangelion (Mecha vs Angels): Inu Yasha (Modern girl time travels to feudal Japan); Cowboy Bebop (Bounty Hunters in space); Noir (Female Assassins are the good guys); Elfin Lied (defies explantation); Heroic Age (mankind on the brink of extermination); Ranma 1/2 (Teenage Boy turns into Teenage Girl when splashed with cold water). that should be a good start.
The guy on the right is correct in his guess: it's not an anime. It's an animated web series that takes inspiration from many sources: Fairy Tales, literature, video games, and indeed, anime(which shows, especially in the first season). The creator himself(RIP) explained this over a decade ago. But over the years, the company responsible for this IP(RT), needed/wanted more money, so they sold distribution rights to CrunchyRoll(an anime site) for revenue. So a fair amount of people assume it's an anime for this, and other reasons, like the stylized action sequences, the eyes of characters, etc.
Either way, despite a majority of the plot is taken/inspired from other works, it's an extremely well written and enjoyable show. Probably one of the best (if not the best) works I have experienced (from 1000's of shows, films, plays/musicals/operas, and literature)
everyones said it already but yall should hit up the trailers (and the world of remnant video too maybe).
rooster teeth doesn't mind reactions btw so no need for the workaround edit.
RWBY is one of my all time favorites. Highly recommend!
I chuckled when you said it reminded you of a game. The show's creators would often say the same thing in the audio commentaries and other behind the scenes stuff. xD
RWBY is unique in that it is well, an American Anime. It was made in Texas and California by the Rooster Teeth crew. Before RWBY, their other main series was Red Vs Blue, which started out as little five minute Halo Machinima videos.
"So we have ruby, snow, lightning and...the cat girl." Whose power is...being a cat. xD Omg I just about died laughing!
This actually has made me notice some little touches and things in the openings I never thought about before.
You actually had some very perceptive insights, noticing some little clues here and there, though of course I won't say what you might've got right or wrong because I'd love to see you react to the series.
Ruby is Mario, you heard it hear first! Lmao! xD
If you get into RWBY, my advice would be to ignore the small percentage of the fandom that wants to focus on pointless drama and bickering. Most of us aren't like that I promise. The ones who are, are just really loud and obnoxious. ^_^
