@@InternetSyndicate Not really, i mean Weiss just uses her weapon as a wand now, and she doesnt engage hand to hand combat anymore. She also loves to abuse her dust now, which just makes her reliant on that and her summons. It was clever against Marrow but now its just a completely different shift from her original fighting style.
@@valerie_sees thats...kind of the issue. She just like everyone else all fight nearly the exact same with small differences. She lacks so much of the finesse and skill she used to have and just abuses her summoning ad nauseum. Its nowhere near as good as it used to be. If you look closely most of the fights are very samey. The movements and battle stages are very similar. Sure the scenery is different but they fight on all these flat ground areas and lack the dynamic movements that monty put in in the original fights including the interesting teamwork. Remember the move yang and blake did to break the paladin that torchwick was in? Compare those to now and you have everyone fighting with pretty much the same fighting style adapted for a specific weapon if even that. Edit: i will add that her using a lot of dust is not new. She already used a lot of dust, especially when making different glyphs. The only new thing she's doing is abusing her summoning. Its not a total shift of fighting style and if it was she'd have needed to spend much more time working at it than she has. Thats still poor writing. The issue is that like everyone else her combat went to shit after monty died and they ran out of his animations to use and they're trying to rebuild. So she like everyone else is beginning to get the flare back but its not all there.
@@InternetSyndicate yea ever since she learned how to summon, it's almost all she ever does. It was stupid how she was trying to summon while fighting vernal
I believe that Angel's semblance would be named kaleidoscope, quite appropriately, and it allows her to create a kaleidoscopic cage that, only inside, when she begins to win a fight, and the opponent holds doubt inside their mind, the semblance begins to curse the person, trapping them inside their own mind, forcing them to become who they never wanted to be, but who they believe they must be to survive
Henry Gentry if you ignore the wings and bird cage I think spider themed semblance would be cool. Spiders can sense prey using vibrations on the threads when prey gets caught. You could say that she creates a spider web made out of her aura to sense her enemies and has a secondary effect that ‘poisons’ her targets mind with her own madness. And her blindness could have been caused by some psychosomatic trauma from her past. Cool anti hero maybe.
I think it's glyphs. A corrupted form of them anyway. Given those memory flashes, seems evident to me that 'Angel' is meant to Weiss' mom after going through some major shit.
@@mattiekarwin3667 I don't think so, Jacques married into the family, and their seemed to be a farm in the background. With the wings, you could make her a faunus, but that's unlikely.
Yeah, Imo it was really dumb, because a lot of movements didnt achieve anything, but I guess for someone rule of cool could outweigh the cringiness of the moment, Im not hating or anything
I used to be Hong Kong movie's Post-production,but director give we very few time to do. So we always be laughed for our ability.That why I go outside to do my own video.
I'm fairly certain he/she is Chinese (based on the broken understandable English and the fact that he/she said they were Hong Kong's post movie production) I could be entirely wrong though so don't suddenly post hate comments
Since the video came out in 2017 right as we got to see the portrait of Weiss' mom, I think this "Angel" OC it's intended to be her mother. I mean she's using evil gooey glyphs FFS. lol
Weiss can actually really do all this in the show (maybe except for the red knight ripping the glyphs apart) yet she lost to Vernal, a regular bandit who just happened to fight decently with two blades. She was dumbed down all so she would lose, be killed by Cinder and let Jaune unlock his semblance. She hasn't even used time dilation in this animation and she's already this OP
Yeah exactly. That's his semblance, giving aura to others or what you call aura amplification. You can't give some of your own aura to charge back up other people's auras. Only Jayne can go that. They've outright stated it in the first episode's fight of V6 (by Weiss). She outright stated that it was HIS SEMBLANCE, amplifying aura
She didn't actually lose to Vernal, the fight was interrupted. Besides, Vernal was clearly the best in the tribe besides Raven, and has obviously spent most of her life fighting.
I’m going to take a shot at angels backstory so bear with me I feel like her life was a lot like Weiss. Born into a rich family she was forced to sing at parties and such but when she wasn’t perfect angel was locked in her room. After disobeying multiple times she was locked in her room and forgotten (hence the forget me not at the beginning). She felt caged like a bird and started to lose her mind, soon she was taken out of her room to sing for a social event. But snapped and killed everyone and burning down her home but not before being blinded by someone trying to defend themselves. After this she was found by the red eyed person and together they founded her team.
Yes (and sorry I didn't reply sooner) angel is an OC but I was just taking a stab at her backstory could be from the context clues pick up in the video. And who knows I'm probably wrong but after rewatching this video I can think up a better explained backstory and that's just the fun of OCs like this.
My theory is that Angel is Weiss mother to this alternate universe. She was keep by her husband Jacques Schnee in a cage-life experienced and in return he corrupted her by some dark power. Probably related to Salem or the God of Darkness influenced.
I know this is a year old but it be pretty hypocritical of Rooster Teeth to do that. Monty Oum(The original creator who died after season 2) made several fan made videos and helped him start his career and also started his fame a bit off of them. It would be REALLY disrespectful to Monty by doing that to fans and I'm sure Monty's fans would get onto them for that too. Could damage their ratings. You should check out his videos. Dead Fantasy and Haloid. You'll notice a strong resplendence with those two and the first two seasons of RWBY
JARED GEISER Whats that all about anyway? I heard they were looking to hire people who could duplicate Monty's style but I wasn't sure if that was true.
I would ask RT to ask this guy to join. RT is definitely improving with the fight choreography and it's impossible to perfectly copy Monty's special style but this guy who made this video gets "it". By "it" I mean that thing that nobody can replicate because it's your own touch. And this guy has that touch. In fact, I wonder if RT has seen this considering they're pretty in touch with the fan community. If not, they NEED to see this and hire the guy.
Theory Time: So, I think given all the context clues this is supposed to be, or to symbolize, Weiss's mother, or possibly a close relative. Primarily, the main giveaway is the color scheme of her in the past along with the stylistic choice of her abilities, giving it a similar, but not identical, appearance to the Glyphs Weiss uses. More clues come from the scene when Weiss is dancing, the patterns on the floors are near identical, perhaps the woman here (who I dub as Angel) trained Weiss in ballet, or similar dance numbers, as Weiss seems to be able to remember the way the patterns move with her eyes closed, and the memory seems to bring her enough peace to summon a large amount of Glyphs which summon a replication of the Knight's sword. As to what happened in the past? Well Angel's powers seems to stem from the black Glyphs she produces, perhaps a corruption of the purified form? We can't really tell for certain, but we do know it's more personally powered than Weiss's glyphs, which just spawn in the air. Angel's, instead, appear to focus on more physical things, such as creating structures or empowering the user. The black glyphs (I'll call them Ink for simplicity) seem to follow the style of calligraphic writing, like with a fountain pen. Odds are it's Angels semblance. It grants the user a great deal of power, allowing Weiss, someone with no experience in it, to summon an absurd amount of projectiles apparently without much concentration involved. However, the user doesn't seem to have complete control of the Ink, and it seemingly "Corrupts" whatever it is inscribed in. Angel, apparently in the past, was corrupted by her own glyphs, murdering a great deal of people and losing a large part of her sanity and control of herself. Weiss, in the present, seems to undergo a similar process, the Ink is inscribed upon her right side, and gives her a huge power boost, at the cost of control over herself. Her knight, normally a shining figure of protection, is instead changed into something with a similar style to a Grimm, and becomes a weapon of mass destruction. The Ink seems to control through one of the most important pieces in RWBY lore; someones eyes. Eyes are important. Ruby has silver eyes, meaning she's supposed to become a super strong huntress. Qrow and Raven symbolize the Ravens of Odin, Huginn and Muninn, and are represented by a complementary pair of eyes for their emblems. Yangs eyes (and presumably Tai-Yangs) turn red when angered or badly hurt. There's even a phrase, "the Eyes are the windows to the soul". Evidently, the Ink uses this 'window' to control someone, as evidenced by Weiss and Angel's eyes becoming "Inked" when under it's influence. This explains why Angel is blind, she feared the Ink had too much power, and thus removed it's access to her, her eyes. She fights blind in order to prevent it from controlling her, and is in turn able to harness it for herself. Weiss still has her eyes, or isn't blinded at the very least, and thus is able to be influenced by the Ink (which causes her to attempt to strangle Ruby). The power the Ink grants is so much, when Weiss's knight charged it's attacks, Angel had to call upon it in order to defeat Weiss and her knight. As for the bird part? It's a reference to around 18th century London. They would take singing birds, and blind them during the morning. This would mean they would just keep singing, over and over, until they died. Angel is apparently supposed to have this as her motif, being blind and having wings, along with the images of the dead Caged Bird.
People are saying you should work for RWBY. People are saying you shouldn't. I say you should apply for a position with them. Your choreography is great & I loved your artistic ability with the patterns. If you do work with them think of it as a learning experience. You showed off more than a good fight. I saw a possible plot. You could be the next Monty creating something new.
@@Mampato101 Imo it has all been going slowly down hill since volume 3, I don't like the new animation at all, I've dropped the show ever since the cinder & raven fight
I personally loved volume 6, but it's frustrating, because we know that CRWBY is capable of making these kind of fights, it's just their given so little time to do so. The difference is that Monty had literal years with the same software that by when he started RWBY, he was significantly faster when it came to these kinds of fights. I just hope RT learns at some point and gives volumes more time in the oven. It'd be a win win for most everyone involved I think.
Nicholas Reel They definitely could give it more time if it wasn’t for corporate. Since RWBY is a big money maker for Rooster Teeth, corporate often demands a new volume every year, giving them little time to work on the volumes. There are hints that they’d already been working on Volume 7 during/right after Volume 6 production. It’s not entirely CRWBY’s fault for being rushed so much like for Volume 5. (Granted they were being procrastinators for that volume but they also have a lot of other things on their plate)
I don't hate volume 4. 5 is a different story, but it has nothing to do with any fight scenes. Has to do with the writing. I haven't seen any of volume 6, so I will withhold my judgment on it. I will say, I have not heard good things about the story for volume 6, but, as I said, I haven't seen any of it.
@zewasplays Exactly. Back when it had big, awesome battles. I thought that without Monty Oum, they couldn't possible make those kind of fight scenes again... but if a fan can do it, they should be able to, or at least hire someone that can, like the person who made this.
@@Redstar2613 it means "original character" which also means a character you made on your own. Original design, original name, original back story/story arc, all from you
David Hostetter yeah. You know that other guy that did the silver trailers? He was offered a job but he didn't want to move, so there's a good chance of this one getting recognised
Jurra eh, I kinda see why... I would just be reluctant and eventually do it though XD he did have to move to Texas or something, and he didn't want to, so...
Shawn Ark I wasn't going to reply because I thought it over and agreed. But feel obligated to disassociate myself 'that's Retarded, lol' guy. that is all.
He is really not good enough is the real reason... the only fight that this is comparable to is the crow and winter fight scene which had the worst animation in the whole series I'm not saying he is bad, I'm just saying he is nowhere near professional yet (yet being the key word, because I feel he will get there) and RWBY needs professionals especially since the animations in v4 were pretty awful in the non fight scenes
Wtf? LOL. This guy did ALL OF THIS BY HIMSELF While The team of RWBY is a FKING TEAM OF PEOPLE. He probably has as much experience as them at this point considering the time span of completing this.Also the incredible raise in quality in comparison to lee vs Ruby
I wish people stopped comparing this animator to Monty, 1 because monty can never be replaced, and 2 because thats kind of an insult considering a lot of people hate being in the shadow of others and being unable to leave said shadow
This guy has potential to match Monty’s eye for choreos and animation. With enough time and practice, he will continue improving. You’re also being a hypocrite by saying people hate being in the shadow of others when you’re the one putting this guy in Monty’s shadow. Sure, Monty can never be replaced but that doesn’t mean that no one can match his skill as THEMSELVES.
Datboi it's the creation aspect as Gilgamesh summons his swords while unlimited bladeworks copies the swords then creates an inferior copy to attack the foe. The ice swords look like they are being made and Unlimited bladeworks can be used in a manner similar to gate of Babylon after being cast hence bladeworks to me due to Weiss creating the ice swords. Though the summoning of that monster can go to Gate of Babylon.
It seems Angel's semblance revolves around the concept of revenge. We catch glimpses of her childhood that appears traumatic. Furthermore, Weiss and ruby did not always get along, so when she was infected by Angels' darkness/semblance, she grew hostile to Ruby. Thoughts??
that's why she made contact with that semblance stuff on the ground it made her go ape shit but also it relies on a deep Hatred on someone example Weiss hated ruby so she would try to kill her but she grew to like ruby and became friends
Eclipse indeed when Monty died they lost the guy who expertly knew how their program worked so they probably had to get used to it PS if you were to make an explanation for the slower fights try me
no her glyph doesn't act as a locator apparently there was a post on the creators twitter with angels info though her semblance didn't have a name but anyway the glyph when on the floor is in it's offensive state where it slows anyone who comes in contact with it while degrading their sanity, it also allows her to instantaneously move to any point on the glyph, which we see her do a few times, like the beginning when she first attacks weiss for example, Then when on her back as the wings it's in it's defensive mode which provides a 360 defence, which detects and counters any and all threats And because someone may ask why did she bother deflecting the swords herself if she has the 360 defence, I have three answers which could all could be wrong, 1. Angel did it as a way to show the weiss that, even with the enhancement weiss was given from both of their glyphs and despite weiss throwing dozens of swords at angel each second, angel was still better by a wide margin 2. It was tactical since we see angel block the first barrage of swords but instead of breaking or falling or something the swords stay in place until thrown away by angel, my assumption is that weiss was trying to brute force her way through angel's defence which failed but weiss and angel had noticed if only temporarily she'd managed to pin angel down, since the wings are physical so if you push them you push angel, leading to weiss shooting hundreds of sword in attempt at pinning angel down long enough for weiss to summon gigas so it could hopefully breakthrough angel's defence, but while opening herself up somewhat she's still in constant motion and has nothing really stopping her 3. it was just easier to deflect the swords than let them pile up to the point she may not be able to simply push them away like she did with the first volley or risk the combined force of all those swords pushing in on her they breakthrough her defence
Kizuna Aoi I am the bone of my Myrstenaster Ice is my body, snow is my blood I have created over a thousand glyphs Unknown to my father Nor known to my mother Have visthood pain to create many glyphs Yet those hands will never weild anything So as I sing Unlimited bladework
Almost a year late but Weiss' setup was more Gate of Babylon. The Swords in the ground after Angel reflected them all DEFINITELY is a nod to Unlimited Blade Works.
Murray Sheen isn't that the same as saying "I'm more interested in Ruby than Jaune", considering this is a direct dive into her abilities and story implications where as we know nothing of Watts? Similar to Ruby's Red Trailer in comparison to Jaune's first on screen appearance in the show. Like Jaune and Ruby in Volume 1, there's nothing of Watts to compare to Angel.
Rogue Pylon Aye true it wasn't a great comparison. Was just thinking of villains tbh...Ignore that part then haha...(I did realise that when I sent it)
Giving them time to develop would mean the original villains, who I remind you, they put effort into developing and set up rivalries with the main protagonists with, wouldn't get any more focus. No Cinder, Em, Merc, or Neo anymore. They put so much time and effort into those characters and now they're just throwing them away.
I think this person should have been implemented into the full show, I think it’s a great backstory. This video in it if itself gives up the entire story pretty much. And I think the semblance was amazing
basically they're reversed team rwby cause at the end of lees trailer his photo/logo was shown first but it was at the end where as rubys hers was at the beginning
The Iris I did say almost. If he keeps at it he could get there. This is definitely better than any fight in volume 4. At least, he knows to keep that camera moving.
This animation while neat Seams barely on par with volume 1 animation So I’d have to say no it’s not better than volume 4 While volume 4 wasn’t filled with excitement the fights it did have were smooth and nice to look at This animation has lots of sudden movements that seem choppy or unrealistic
Madnessman the choreography is far more interesting than the new ones from vol 3-4. Sure this animation isnt as smooth as the real ones but those are produced by a whole team while this is produced by one person. Choreography is good and he has potential to improve even more.
Dear reader, may I kindly ask you to thumb this comment up so that tommylau74 reads it? Thank you very much! Your support is much appreciated! Dear Tommy, thank you for this amazing work of animation and tense storytelling! Just like the trailers directed by Monty, your work becomes more and more beautiful each time I watch it. Your choreography is perfectly logical, and your shots are so beautifully composed! Angle´s wings took my breath away! The reflection of Weiss on her own sword as she understands what a powerful enemy she is battling is one of the best transitions I have ever seen! I think you are incredibly talented! Even the sound design is so on point! The details in your animation are mind blowing! I think you must have been putting an incredible effort into making this! I drew a storyboard and wrote an alternative screenplay for Ruby and Weiss for the RWBY season finale of volume 3 chapter 12. I worked very hard on it for more than two months, and it made me understand what an incredibly huge amount of work you must have been putting into this KCAL trailer for Angle! I I have very high respect for your dedication to your vision! I wrote The RWBY screenplay last year, but now I finally found the courage to upload it. Your work motivated me to get a video on UA-cam. It would make me very happy if you check it out and tell me your option about it! 'RWBY Ruby + Weiss Volume 3 Chapter 12 fight fan animation ' Please Keep up your great work. I hope you will have a bright future as director and animator! Warmly Kay
I just want to know though, WHO IS ANGEL, really? She's definitely a Schnee, there's no point in denying it....Also, don't you think Angel seems like an Adult who's many, many years older than Weiss?
Neo Ramey 🤔 You're right, she seems to be an adult. Seemingly she lost her eye sight during the fire, possibly at her home. The flowers in the meadow shot are the same as on the grip of her weapons handle. Clearly she has been breaking free from a prison or similar, as suggested by the shot of the bird in the cave. Her spreading her wings next, means she is the bird in this metaphor. I think, just like Weiss who can summon the knight she defeated, Angle can summon the cage she defeated and also 'cage' others, by controlling them... Also her little scratch seemingly healed as she marked Weiss. As though she uses Weiss to heal. Also the pattern in Weiss's eye is the same as on Angle's weapon, so she seems to need this weapons to channel her power... I noticed the man has red eyes, just like Grimm or like Crow during his fight with Winter, so he might be a Branwen. Weather this man helped her to flee or caged her up, remains to be seen... But I think he helped her.👍 Now why would a Schnee attack another Schnee? Clearly Angle believe the entire Rwby team to be her enemy nor just Weiss, which I think could point to her having a bigger intentions... Maybe she does not even want to attack Weiss but believes she has too! Weiss does not seem to know her, even though they are from the same famous family. This means they did not grow up together... Maybe Angles existence is denied by her family... After all her name does not fit the entire winter theme perfectly. All Schnees are named after German words for well known phenomena in winter, expect for Angle... There are many mysteries... I am very excited! I hope Tommy will share more information on his vision with us in the future.😊👍
I'm agreeing that her semblance is Ink(Dark Glyphs) And she blinded herself so she could use her semblance without it corrupting her sanity like it did to Weiss during the battle. It doesn't explain why she didn't kill Weiss herself instead of carrying her and placing her next to Ruby, who was defeated by Lee, but clearly still alive. Also, I'm going to bet that only Schnee family members can be permanently Inked. It would explain why the effects of the semblance persist even though Angel left. Also, I'm really excited for the Yang fight because it's probably going to be robot arm Yang. And even though Yang is gonna lose, I bet that she's still going to put up afight.
Sorry,my english is suck,so I noticed that you had this question(Sorry anyone, google translator not very efficient)and I see your video. I can not help story(English, English, English.....)but I see animatic.I think temporary like turn-based(wiess go first and then ruby),you can think more they attacked at the same time ,is will fun.Good Luck
It's just that, after Monty died I believe that animation was set back-- he had so much he wanted to do still and would have taught so many more people his techniques, it genuinely breaks my heart. Seeing this, it makes me happy to see that his unique style hasn't completely died with him.
I love how there's effort put in to this as you can see! AND I LOVE ANGELS WINGS!! Some past stuff happens and stuff that I rlly don't know about angel but she's strong! And I kinda hated the fact that she kinda made Weiss into a psychopath,I won't mind it and u totally improved ur animation skills :O
Hmmm. She's a blind fighter... maybe her power is something to do with transferring her memories? Or altering memories? Idk but from what I'm seeing in this film, Angel may be her long lost mother. (This is all fan made so it's not canon of course)
I was thinking the creator took inspiration from Nier with the pattern going on Weiss' skin and the blindfold and color palette of Angel resembling the androids in Automata. I like that they put a bit of a twist with the angel wings and bird in the cage concept though.
Alexandra Martinez agreed quick get the people who react to RWBY specifically the ones who reacted to Mark Zhang and spread the word also on the rwby amino if you use that app
Alexandra Martinez I think this is not getting enough views because people question on the fighting style and who the blind woman is rather than enjoy this amazing animation like for real
Shadowtechnik The Schnee semblance are Glyphs that work as platforms that defy gravity, barriers and launchers. They also enable Time Dilation and Summoning projections of enemies the summoner had defeated.
Wow. This animation got me waiting for more. Amazing. Although I seriously thought Weiss was fighting with her future self. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY! WHO WAS THAT GUY AT THE END!?
SaltySake Raven vs cinder was awesome but the main appeal to Monty’s style was that the fights were nonstop fast attacks which is why people dislike it compared to months work because it isn’t as fast just take a look at the yang trailer for volume1 it’s far faster than raven vs cinder
That was one trippy fight. Who is Angel supposed to be anyway, Weiss' mother?........... OOOOOOOOOOOH I get it now! Angel Schnee, snow angel, I can't believe it took me this long to realize.
My theory is that Angel is Weiss mother to this alternate universe. She was keep by her husband Jacques Schnee in a cage-life experienced and in return he corrupted her by some dark power. Probably related to Salem or the God of Darkness influenced.
There is enough lore to disprove this, but it feels like Angel is a Schnee, possibly even being a future version of Weiss that was corrupted in some way
@@Ramsey276one no, but maybe the only ones to have the Glyph semblance be hereditary, the odds of two families having the same hereditary semblance is quite low
@@Ramsey276one Exactly? You asked what makes the schnee family the only glyph bloodline, and I said that the odds of two separate families having the same hereditary semblance is really low, how does that support what you were saying?
One year later, and this still makes my day everytime I watch it. I don't think I'm waiting more for a sequel than with this KCAL team and Mark Zhang's SLVR team. I mean, I liked RWBY Vol.6 (even tho Vol.4 and 5 almost made me drop the show, because... shit tons of reasons), but I'm more hyped for these two "amateurs" team Trailers than for the official show, even when knowing we may very well NEVER have any new video for them. I can just hope.
Dunno how Rooster Teeth haven't hired this person yet.. He's doing a better job at this than the actual team.. I'm guessing that Angel has some sort of relation to Weiss? As the 'cage' that was shown in the video had the Schnee emblem. I'd love to guess that she may possibly be an aunt or possible alternate reality self.. The theory of Angel being her mother is unlikely, as Weiss' mother was never said to have any condition, or any health related conditions like how Angel is wearing a blindfold. I'm just assuming Angel is blind but has heightened awareness, (Basically just a female Daredevil) Though it's also an amazing but crazy idea to think of Angel as maybe an evil clone of Weiss?
Maybe. Weiss's dad tried to create a clone as a puppet to force his will unto the Schnee company. He would look a lot better with a daughter of the Schnee family on his side.
The fact that a 1 man team can do better work than a full team of people with better tech to do the work kind of says something about what RT is doing. Are they getting lazy or what? The new animation looks beautiful now but if we gotta go back to Maya to get better fight choreos like this then I'd drop Poser without question.
I don't want to hear anyone praising Rooster Teeths volume 4+ choreography after witnessing this. Imagine facial expressions, hair moving, dancing...actually using the various abilities you have. This was fantastic...
Wow. So you don’t want people to like the show because you found something that, in your opinion is better. That’s kinda fucked up. What if someone hated this and said they didn’t want to see any likes on videos of other RWBY fan animators? I bet you’d be upset and think that was unfair towards people trying their best.
@@sorinxi7455 That's not even what I said. People can like the show if they want, but they're deluding themselves if they think the animation there is better than this video here. My point is that RT should be able to do better.
@@lynpotter6471 That’s not what you said, though. You said you didn’t want to hear anymore praise for Volume 4 onwards. That wasn’t restricted to animation. And even then, it’s an opinion. The animation in V6 onwards is phenomenal, and much smoother than this in my **opinion.** Everything you mentioned in the original comment is in the show aside from dancing (which is Weiss-specific), so it’s not even like this did something new. Let people like what they wanna like.
So here is what I got from this This woman is Weiss's mother, When Weiss was little her father locked her mother in a room for probably a similar reason that he locked Weiss for, after being locked for too long she eventually had a breakdown as she felt like a bird in a cage and just like how we saw the schnee semblance can go out of control sometimes (like we saw with Weiss in volume 4) her semblance got corrupted and turned like that, so she went on a rampage and left the schnee family When Weiss fought her mother and came in direct contact with the corrupted schnee semblance, it corrupted hers as well and caused her to go through a similar rampage that her mother had, which is why the giant knight became beseker and she went psycho
So, I'm getting the feeling that this is more than just random fights and that there is a story going on here. And to be honest, your setting it up beautifully while also keeping us all in suspense. Your character are interesting and seem to be a true match to team RWBY in much a similar way as Tyrian. Except unlike Tyrian they're manageable enough to make a one on one fight interesting. Also, this 'Angel' seems to be a great foil to weiss on multiple levels. I must ask, will we see Yang and Blake have to contend with the other half of team KCAL(i remember that panel from the first video for 30 days)? I can not wait to see who they would have to stand against, and how it adds to this story. I love your work and your are creating a very nice story. I hope you not only continue this project but also turn it into a full fan series (if you have the time of course) as it would be very well received. This story already had me on the edge of my seat and i can't help but wonder who are the member of KCAL are(I personally LOVE mohammad sharif's theory on angel a few comments down). Well done good sir, please keep up the fantastic work.
My theory is that Angel is Weiss mother to this alternate universe. She was keep by her husband Jacques Schnee in a cage-life experienced and in return he corrupted her by some dark power. Probably related to Salem or the God of Darkness influenced.
Theory time: It took me a while, but I think I have an idea of the blind woman's semblance. The black patterns she casts on the ground can cause the opposer touching it to lose their sanity, or have their mind corrupted. As seen, Weiss and the Blind Woman both wear the same crazy expression: wild eyes and a smile that screams homocide. Notice that the black patterns took over only one side of Weiss, (which happened when she fell on the patterns, her right hand touching them, spreading it throughout her right side.) Therefore, she isn't completely insane. (Which is why she snapped out of it after almost choking Ruby to death) And Weiss avoids touching/ being touched by the black patterns any more by dancing around them when the Blind Woman begins to shift them around. And With every semblance there's a drawback, and this one is that the insanity also kinda works against the user. When the insanity took over, Weiss seemed to be less cautious, more reckless, seemed to move more... freely. ( They always say the the more psychotic the character the more powerful) I'm curious about the Blind Woman, like why is she blind? Maybe it had to do with the bleeding eyes? Or was that symbolic? How did she lose her sanity? Was it due to being locked up? Was she abused/tormented? Or maybe she was insane from the beginning which was the reason why she was locked up?
Roosterteeth should NOT hire this guy as many people are saying, cause they seem to squander any talent they have ever sinew Monty passed. No, you should go on to make far better works of your own, seriously, this work is akin to the stuff Monty himself did, your choreography is just spot on, I could definately see you doing just as well if not better. Good luck, I hope to see more in the future.
Honestly, I can't help but agree, and particularly because it doesn't seem like RT and RWBY's team will get their act together soon enough to really make quality use of their workers.
@chocopiemaria2003 Perhaps but currently, they aren't looking like they are improving enough with each volume, or even just at times seemingly getting worse in terms of overall quality. Particulars being lacking of consistency between frames of view of where individuals are located on a plane, characters lacking focus/attention or getting too much as a side-character, fight scenes (especially the finale of V5) lacking sense or rather just quality of a true all-out battle, and so on (as a number of individuals on YT have made videos on critiquing the RWBY series). It's not that I hate RWBY, it's that I am disappointed and wanting more than what it is currently as it should be, and because of that I find it hard to watch when I really do want to enjoy it... But in the end I can't, not until they get their act together, maybe even take some writing and animation classes, and overall just improve. True artists, to me, do not settle for "ok", they strive to improve, to learn, and to grow with their art and style and capabilities to make even better works than ever before.
@chocopiemaria2003 No. He should avoid RWBY as much as possible right now, because it is clear not even the staff care much about the series anymore, and their has been so many claims of staff still being scrutinized after Monty's death. You don't change overnight, because the same was done with Death Battle and how the earlier animators felt of their treatment of them. It's why One Minute Melee is it's own separate thing now, and many of the animators that did Death Battle currently work with them now.
You're right on one count. He shouldn't be hired to make RWBY. But I'd amend it by saying that he shouldn't because many of the fans are ungrateful and never seem to be pleased with anything no matter what Rooster Teeth does to try and improve. Heck, most of them would probably choke on their own words trying to give the show a compliment for what they've done right. And no one needs to deal with that kind of pressure. I agree that not all of the decisions, particularly with the writing and storytelling, that have been made in the recent volumes have been brilliant. Actually there are several which I am highly unsatisfied with as a fan of the show. But they have worked really hard and improved the show in some areas. For example the animation is so much better and smooth now compared to the earlier seasons. Furthermore their fight scenes are steadily improving since Monty's unfortunate passing, in fact the only one I'd label as bad is the season 5 finale, excluding the Raven vs Cinder which was dope, but again that was more of a writing issue. There is nothing wrong with constructive criticism when coupled with the praise that they're due too. But too many people are forgetting to do the praise bit.
@@TheAscendedDragon The overall quality of the show has done nothing but improve (with the exception of Volume 4, imo). Everything but the action has gotten loads better. The voice acting in Volume 1 varied from acceptable to shit but now it's ALL really good. They've got well known professional voice actors like Christopher Sabbat and Cherami Leigh, hell even Monica Rial actually did a good job in it. I actually care about the characters, which I didn't really back in the first 2 Volumes. The story is pretty good, though it took a while to actually get there. Good world building, too. The character development is decent, as well. Basically, the show keeps getting better and better, for the most part. Especially visually. Volume 1 looks like trash compared to 6. So there's a few mistakes.. so what? Someone being located in a different location on a plane isn't really a big deal. It's a criticism worth pointing out but if that's one of your biggest complaints, that's pretty ridiculous.
You did an amazing job animating this. Not a lot of people can animate like this and make something fanmade this good especially because Weiss is like perfect minus the missing scar on her left eye. I like how you put a pattern and changed the colour of her right eye. This is wonderfully done. Amazing job well done.
You know that feeling when you have a creative idea but somewhere in the world someone else is having the exact same idea but they are like 18 months ahead of you and way more talented. I found this just threw my hands up like that was awesome. This blind character has been running through my head for years and i'm just like yup that's her and her powers.
Incredible vid!! I loved the complexity of the story going on, the fight choreograpy was awesome, weiss doing ballet to avoid the glyphs, the animation!!! I loved everything about u did an amazing job :)
@Never Ending Dream Monty did do a great job because he made the animations more like a dance, instead of a fight. But you saw when season 4 started it looked rougher, since Monty isn't here anymore
@@linleyhumanfoodlover8204 fortunately as of season 6, they have grealty improved the fight scenes. its like they have actualyl learned from theri experiences and pooled them together. capturing some of that old magic again. along with combining their experiments ins storytelling.
Feel free to disagree with me but to be honest, I think this animation is better than RWBY season/volume 5... The fighting choreography is really amazing!
Mai Anh Tran then you need some glasses. Yes this animation is amazing, but Volume 5 is on a whole another level. Although, this person doing it alone has some good talent.
If you are talking about the definition and image in general then yes the main series is kinda better, but the fighting animation has been really bad since Monty passed away, lackluster and slow as a snail to put it kindly. This fighting animation though, I have to say it again and again, is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G
jesuisoriginale pointcom The volumes 4-5 choreography were incredible shit until the end of volume 5. The storyline was tedious and the chapters were too short to keep me hanging on to it. I literally only watched it because I LOVED the series but now it's just some real hot garbage. This is SO much greater compared to all of volumes 4-5. Yeah the graphics could be a bit better and stuff but this leaves GOOD questions unanswered plus this single fight was better than all of volume 4 and almost all of 5 up until the Cinder and Raven fight.
Bambi c: Mmmmh....I guess so. But the thing I have with RWBY is that I understand NOTHING OF THE STORY. nothing. I'm not english to begin with but I could understand what was going on....until volume 5. Buut I'm just dumb lol. But yeah the animations can be kinda shitty but it's getting better....I think.
THIS IS WHAT WE FUCKING WANT, ROOSTERTEETH. TAKE SOME FUCKING NOTES. You see, we don't just want clean and shiny character models, we want to be drawn into a lethal dance. We want see combat choreographed to have MEANING and STORY behind them not just some flailing of arms and legs being pulled into convenient spaces. This here is an example of a diamond in the rough. Tommylau, polish your work. You have the shine of a truly amazing gem.
If she were to have gone nuts, why she'd so solemn when she fought Weiss...and I know she's blind, but it looked she knew all of Weiss's abilities...Implying that she's the kind of blind who can see you and know what you look like because if she were truly blind she wouldn't have known Weiss was a Schnee who uses Glyphs?! Also, who else felt like this whole battle was a test or something?
Well, actually Weiss's mother was referenced in the show, she's a drunkard and it was said she was home in Atlas staying as far away from her husband as humanly possible.
REALLY, is it SO HARD for RT to hire talent like THIS, and put time into making their fight scenes instead of outright ignoring them entirely. I hope that RT doesn't forget it was months choreography and excellent pacing in his work that even got the show discovered in the first place.
King Arthur Thank GOD I'm not the only one who has noticed this. Every time I mention it, some fan goes wild and makes up excuses like "there doesn't have to be a fight in every episode". Well, there doesn't need to be a fight for the sake of story either. Volume 2 started off with an epic full episode food fight and that contributed nothing to the story because it was just for shits and giggles and it was awesome! RT is intentionally avoiding fights as much as possible and, even when there is a fight, I noticed that they do some shortcuts. For example, there was a huge opportunity to showcase a battle between Adam and Khan but they just decided to take the cliche route and kill her mid-speech. That's a lazy way to kill off an important and powerful character. It'd be understandable to kill her mid-speech if she didn't suspect anything wrong but she clearly knew shit was about to go down.
Soarel check the latest one before you wreck yourself, also saying it like that is calling the workers FULL ASS BLOWN HARD WORK like shit, that’s messed up -.-
Naomi it’s called budget, sorry if I sound like a butt hurt fan, but think how much cartoons or shit they have made, all that effort just so people can complain like where are the fights?! Wait, look at the latest one, they have an amazing fight, if you want it now i can spoil the whole god damn thing if ya want. Also Khans mostly about peace and I doubt she would want to fight, but then again I see your point, but think how stressful RT is, with people nagging at them, hate, battles, questions, mistakes, when the next episode will be out, and things like that, it’s not easy running that kind of things. Lets just enjoy what we have. My logic might be fucked up a little but it’s like 1 AM
How Weiss made swords is exactly the same concept from Gate of Babylon and UBW together, UBW allows to create swords, Gate of Babylon summons them from Gilgamesh's treasure, like Weiss glyphs calling the swords that creates and shoots from everywhere
Well Weiss Summons would be closer to UBW considering it takes her strenght to summon it and not like gil having nearly unlimited swords stored.Weiss uses her semblance similar to gate of babylon but it is fueled and supplied with magic andcohesion similar to UBW :)
I hope this person is working on rwby, they really have a good understanding on the battle ideas and movements, as well was the powers used and the badasser of it all- when this first came out, i thought this was weiss's mother and that was her parent's story lol. its just golden, glad i found this video again
THANK YOU! I thought I was the insane one when I didn't think Vol 4 didn't live up to the hype, granted most of it was because I miss Monty's touch in the fight scenes. But now I haven't even started Vol 5... anyone here who still watches RWBY can tell me if it's worth getting back into?
kingofsapi In the most recent episode, there was a 15 second scene that had probably the best action animation I have seen from the show since Torchwick, Blake, and Sun from Volume 1 (i never really liked anything from Volume 2 3 or 4 aside from Qrow and Tyrian). The story itself has really progressed as well and im actually enjoying it for the first time since the second half of volume 3. There are two plotholes that i find very annoying but generally people dont seem to be bothered by them.
Really? Hmm... did they hire a new choreographer for the show? Okay... I might, MIGHT get back into it. Volumes one and two are still my favorite, until the tone change in season 3. :P
Soarel yeah there were some parts that were confusing but overall it was good and gave a creepy and questionable feeling at the end with angel that was also good because it was giving a story or something
Olarson Domingo The story telling in this is a lot better than Mark. Mark is really good with smoother transitions and dynamic fight scenes. I'd watch videos from both these guys any day though.
Yume Matsushita agreed Mark has a good animation with a bit of a story about questions on who is this Brandon guy (charcoal) and what are those robotic knights he has and Tommy has a pretty good animation that's on par with Mark's but not exactly like Mark's but gave a type of story on a character and had that beautiful art at the end where Angel is like on a rampage killing those giant knight thing( I don't know what those are in the actual show) and with that jumpscare with Angel's crazy face made it pretty this video pretty interesting
Mark just has a lot more experience. This is Tommy's 2nd trailer that he's made. Mark's made 4, with each of them improving from Charcoal to Linen. Mark went from stiff, quite robotic movements to smooth, swift, fluid, and fast paced movements. Tommy's Lee trailer was actually quite a bit like Mark's Charcoal in terms of animation. Both were pretty stiff and robotic, however Mark's Charcoal was better in my opinion due to the fight between the Samurai Robots and Charcoal as it was a lot more fluid and fast paced than Tommy's Lee trailer. Tommy's Angel trailer, in my opinion, is better than Mark's Silver, but not at the level of Mark's Viridian trailer. I speculate, however, by the time that Tommy gets to his 3rd trailer, which is probably going to be C since Tommy seems to be doing his trailers from L to K, it'll be on the same level as Viridian or at least close to it.
aphichat tonjai Probably because the animation is as good as the animation in RWBY Volume 1. That level of animation is great, until you see the other volumes and realise it could be better. Not that it isn't great already. It IS good. But it could be better.
God I love this animation, I always come back to it, everything from the music to the animation to the character design to the choreography, it’s all so good!
I miss THIS Weiss. Hell, I miss this level of quality of fight scenes. And by “THIS Weiss” I’m talking about her fighting style not her mental sanity.
They're working at it but its just not all the way there yet. They all use the same fighting style basically
I was about to say, I don't exactly think she's doin too well in this version of the story...
@@InternetSyndicate Not really, i mean Weiss just uses her weapon as a wand now, and she doesnt engage hand to hand combat anymore. She also loves to abuse her dust now, which just makes her reliant on that and her summons. It was clever against Marrow but now its just a completely different shift from her original fighting style.
@@valerie_sees thats...kind of the issue. She just like everyone else all fight nearly the exact same with small differences. She lacks so much of the finesse and skill she used to have and just abuses her summoning ad nauseum. Its nowhere near as good as it used to be. If you look closely most of the fights are very samey. The movements and battle stages are very similar. Sure the scenery is different but they fight on all these flat ground areas and lack the dynamic movements that monty put in in the original fights including the interesting teamwork. Remember the move yang and blake did to break the paladin that torchwick was in?
Compare those to now and you have everyone fighting with pretty much the same fighting style adapted for a specific weapon if even that.
Edit: i will add that her using a lot of dust is not new. She already used a lot of dust, especially when making different glyphs. The only new thing she's doing is abusing her summoning. Its not a total shift of fighting style and if it was she'd have needed to spend much more time working at it than she has. Thats still poor writing. The issue is that like everyone else her combat went to shit after monty died and they ran out of his animations to use and they're trying to rebuild. So she like everyone else is beginning to get the flare back but its not all there.
@@InternetSyndicate yea ever since she learned how to summon, it's almost all she ever does. It was stupid how she was trying to summon while fighting vernal
See this is how Weiss should have fought Vernal in V4
I'm your mom V5
@@ideathii6012 oh yeah my bad. Thanks for correcting me
I'm your mom Np
Vol 5. Fights is shit, except for maybe Sun's fight.
I should have fought Weiss in volume 5.
I believe that Angel's semblance would be named kaleidoscope, quite appropriately, and it allows her to create a kaleidoscopic cage that, only inside, when she begins to win a fight, and the opponent holds doubt inside their mind, the semblance begins to curse the person, trapping them inside their own mind, forcing them to become who they never wanted to be, but who they believe they must be to survive
Henry Gentry if you ignore the wings and bird cage I think spider themed semblance would be cool. Spiders can sense prey using vibrations on the threads when prey gets caught. You could say that she creates a spider web made out of her aura to sense her enemies and has a secondary effect that ‘poisons’ her targets mind with her own madness. And her blindness could have been caused by some psychosomatic trauma from her past. Cool anti hero maybe.
OMARGOD I like that..... You went more of an assassin type thing.... I went more of a enchatress type thing..... Woo conspiracy
I think it's glyphs. A corrupted form of them anyway. Given those memory flashes, seems evident to me that 'Angel' is meant to Weiss' mom after going through some major shit.
@@mattiekarwin3667 I don't think so, Jacques married into the family, and their seemed to be a farm in the background. With the wings, you could make her a faunus, but that's unlikely.
Henry Gentry no I think her semblance is Glyph like all the other Schnees and besides kaleidoscope could be just a move of the Glyph semblance.
I love it, but am I the only one who's gonna mention how terrifying it is? It feels like Angel isn't even human, but more, a demon.
The fact that Weiss nearly went full evangelion on ruby was probably the most disturbing thing about this animation.
@@Konh-Minh Yeah I'm pretty sure the show will not pull that
that would be ironic
her name is angle yet she is a demon
Yeah that is the feeling I get from her as well.
Hehe I get it
Making Weiss dance to avoid the patterns on the floor was a really nice touch
Edit; 2.8K likes? why thank you~
Yeah, Imo it was really dumb, because a lot of movements didnt achieve anything, but I guess for someone rule of cool could outweigh the cringiness of the moment, Im not hating or anything
@@fgdbbddhhdhdj1591 fair enough, I just think it's neat that he incorporated Weiss' background into the choreography

How long did it take you to make this.
tommylau74 dude, you're awsome
When a fan made rwby animation gets more views than actual episodes!
Itz cause some peeps go on the website to watch rwby not yt
It makes sense because people see the eps in RT website or just pirate.
Yes
Well most of them watch it on the real website
Some people don't watch the full episode, others rewatch this.
For a moment I though it was a Weiss vs Weiss' Mom fight. Silly Me.
SateliteRaider1 I did two just look at them they look alike so much
me too
It actually is uncanny how angel resembles Weiss's mother when I first watched it I thought it was her mother
Since the video came out in 2017 right as we got to see the portrait of Weiss' mom, I think this "Angel" OC it's intended to be her mother. I mean she's using evil gooey glyphs FFS. lol
Ahm so I really thought it was supposed to be her Mom. Hahaha
Weiss can actually really do all this in the show (maybe except for the red knight ripping the glyphs apart) yet she lost to Vernal, a regular bandit who just happened to fight decently with two blades. She was dumbed down all so she would lose, be killed by Cinder and let Jaune unlock his semblance. She hasn't even used time dilation in this animation and she's already this OP
Jaune still doesn't have unlocked his semblance
He already did in V5 (aura amplification) and he is using it actively in V6. Are we watching the same show?
@@maiseree1511 I know that, and it's not his semblance. He said it himself that somehow he's "giving" aura to the others. That's how he saved Weiss
Yeah exactly. That's his semblance, giving aura to others or what you call aura amplification. You can't give some of your own aura to charge back up other people's auras. Only Jayne can go that. They've outright stated it in the first episode's fight of V6 (by Weiss). She outright stated that it was HIS SEMBLANCE, amplifying aura
She didn't actually lose to Vernal, the fight was interrupted. Besides, Vernal was clearly the best in the tribe besides Raven, and has obviously spent most of her life fighting.
I’m going to take a shot at angels backstory so bear with me
I feel like her life was a lot like Weiss. Born into a rich family she was forced to sing at parties and such but when she wasn’t perfect angel was locked in her room. After disobeying multiple times she was locked in her room and forgotten (hence the forget me not at the beginning). She felt caged like a bird and started to lose her mind, soon she was taken out of her room to sing for a social event. But snapped and killed everyone and burning down her home but not before being blinded by someone trying to defend themselves. After this she was found by the red eyed person and together they founded her team.
Well so this Angel is supposes to be an OC right? Sarrey just new here. I'd appreciate a reply tho
@@steffyness3153 Yes, she is a fanmade character.
Yes (and sorry I didn't reply sooner) angel is an OC but I was just taking a stab at her backstory could be from the context clues pick up in the video. And who knows I'm probably wrong but after rewatching this video I can think up a better explained backstory and that's just the fun of OCs like this.
My theory is that Angel is Weiss mother to this alternate universe.
She was keep by her husband Jacques Schnee in a cage-life experienced and in return he corrupted her by some dark power. Probably related to Salem or the God of Darkness influenced.
sounds really good
“Is a cage made to trap or to protect?”

@Progaming 102 how is this scary?
I know this is a year old but it be pretty hypocritical of Rooster Teeth to do that. Monty Oum(The original creator who died after season 2) made several fan made videos and helped him start his career and also started his fame a bit off of them. It would be REALLY disrespectful to Monty by doing that to fans and I'm sure Monty's fans would get onto them for that too. Could damage their ratings.
You should check out his videos. Dead Fantasy and Haloid. You'll notice a strong resplendence with those two and the first two seasons of RWBY
I miss this style of action, RWBY honestly hasn't been the same since Monty Oum's passing.
You deserve way more attention my boi, hope you will grow up fast on youtube :) 👏👏👏👌
If Monty Oum the creator of "RWBY" was alive, he would be impress with your animation, and probably ask you to join Rooster Teeth Company.
JARED GEISER Whats that all about anyway? I heard they were looking to hire people who could duplicate Monty's style but I wasn't sure if that was true.
Where did you get all this info? Does RT have a news feed I haven't learned about yet?
thanks, ill check that out.
I would ask RT to ask this guy to join. RT is definitely improving with the fight choreography and it's impossible to perfectly copy Monty's special style but this guy who made this video gets "it". By "it" I mean that thing that nobody can replicate because it's your own touch. And this guy has that touch. In fact, I wonder if RT has seen this considering they're pretty in touch with the fan community. If not, they NEED to see this and hire the guy.
Rip Monty Oum
Theory Time:
So, I think given all the context clues this is supposed to be, or to symbolize, Weiss's mother, or possibly a close relative.
Primarily, the main giveaway is the color scheme of her in the past along with the stylistic choice of her abilities, giving it a similar, but not identical, appearance to the Glyphs Weiss uses.
More clues come from the scene when Weiss is dancing, the patterns on the floors are near identical, perhaps the woman here (who I dub as Angel) trained Weiss in ballet, or similar dance numbers, as Weiss seems to be able to remember the way the patterns move with her eyes closed, and the memory seems to bring her enough peace to summon a large amount of Glyphs which summon a replication of the Knight's sword.
As to what happened in the past? Well Angel's powers seems to stem from the black Glyphs she produces, perhaps a corruption of the purified form? We can't really tell for certain, but we do know it's more personally powered than Weiss's glyphs, which just spawn in the air. Angel's, instead, appear to focus on more physical things, such as creating structures or empowering the user.
The black glyphs (I'll call them Ink for simplicity) seem to follow the style of calligraphic writing, like with a fountain pen. Odds are it's Angels semblance. It grants the user a great deal of power, allowing Weiss, someone with no experience in it, to summon an absurd amount of projectiles apparently without much concentration involved. However, the user doesn't seem to have complete control of the Ink, and it seemingly "Corrupts" whatever it is inscribed in.
Angel, apparently in the past, was corrupted by her own glyphs, murdering a great deal of people and losing a large part of her sanity and control of herself. Weiss, in the present, seems to undergo a similar process, the Ink is inscribed upon her right side, and gives her a huge power boost, at the cost of control over herself. Her knight, normally a shining figure of protection, is instead changed into something with a similar style to a Grimm, and becomes a weapon of mass destruction.
The Ink seems to control through one of the most important pieces in RWBY lore; someones eyes.
Eyes are important. Ruby has silver eyes, meaning she's supposed to become a super strong huntress. Qrow and Raven symbolize the Ravens of Odin, Huginn and Muninn, and are represented by a complementary pair of eyes for their emblems. Yangs eyes (and presumably Tai-Yangs) turn red when angered or badly hurt. There's even a phrase, "the Eyes are the windows to the soul". Evidently, the Ink uses this 'window' to control someone, as evidenced by Weiss and Angel's eyes becoming "Inked" when under it's influence.
This explains why Angel is blind, she feared the Ink had too much power, and thus removed it's access to her, her eyes. She fights blind in order to prevent it from controlling her, and is in turn able to harness it for herself. Weiss still has her eyes, or isn't blinded at the very least, and thus is able to be influenced by the Ink (which causes her to attempt to strangle Ruby). The power the Ink grants is so much, when Weiss's knight charged it's attacks, Angel had to call upon it in order to defeat Weiss and her knight.
As for the bird part? It's a reference to around 18th century London. They would take singing birds, and blind them during the morning. This would mean they would just keep singing, over and over, until they died. Angel is apparently supposed to have this as her motif, being blind and having wings, along with the images of the dead Caged Bird.

You are far from the only one
I personally loved volume 6, but it's frustrating, because we know that CRWBY is capable of making these kind of fights, it's just their given so little time to do so. The difference is that Monty had literal years with the same software that by when he started RWBY, he was significantly faster when it came to these kinds of fights. I just hope RT learns at some point and gives volumes more time in the oven. It'd be a win win for most everyone involved I think.
@@NickyShadow99 personally i thought the volume 4 and 6 fights were just as good as this. Though i hated volume 5
Nicholas Reel They definitely could give it more time if it wasn’t for corporate. Since RWBY is a big money maker for Rooster Teeth, corporate often demands a new volume every year, giving them little time to work on the volumes. There are hints that they’d already been working on Volume 7 during/right after Volume 6 production. It’s not entirely CRWBY’s fault for being rushed so much like for Volume 5. (Granted they were being procrastinators for that volume but they also have a lot of other things on their plate)
I don't hate volume 4. 5 is a different story, but it has nothing to do with any fight scenes. Has to do with the writing. I haven't seen any of volume 6, so I will withhold my judgment on it. I will say, I have not heard good things about the story for volume 6, but, as I said, I haven't seen any of it.
Hello rooster teeth obviously u have seen this why haven’t u hired this person or made this on the real show I’m waiting

@zewasplays Exactly. Back when it had big, awesome battles. I thought that without Monty Oum, they couldn't possible make those kind of fight scenes again... but if a fan can do it, they should be able to, or at least hire someone that can, like the person who made this.

Shawn Ark I wasn't going to reply because I thought it over and agreed. But feel obligated to disassociate myself 'that's Retarded, lol' guy. that is all.
Angel's fighting style is so AWESOME and she defects all of Weiss's attacks like it was nothing
ITS AMAZING!!!!!
The amount of work put into this video is crazy!! *IF WE COULD GET THIS TO TRENDING HE WOULD WORK 10x Harder!!*
One person alone made 5 min video.It make me crazy,I need to slack off.I can doing better on animation,but I am tired.
tommylau74 You keep doing you man!! You make amazing animations plus your characters are more interesting than marks
Waffleo 0o BETTER THAN RT'S ANIMATION! I MEAN, OVERALL THIS LOOKS LIKE VOLUME 2'S ANIMATION *DONE ONLY BY ONE PERSON*
Honestly I would make this woman the girl in the tower instead of Salem. She seems to be far more interesting a character
Agree she way more cooler.
@@princeofqrow3181 just imagine her become mine villain of v4
@@fuckingking6796 yes!
You captured Weiss's fighting style better than Roosterteeth did after Monty passed QQ
Yep!

(Also I know this comment is late but this animation is so friggin well done)
And you got a likes, her one more.
*YO ROOSTERTEETH* Why haven't you hired this guy with this....this *MASTERPIECE* ?!
Language barrier, it seems. He doesn't speak English very well.
Soarel they can still speak English
Soarel In that case they should hire a translator for him!
He is really not good enough is the real reason... the only fight that this is comparable to is the crow and winter fight scene which had the worst animation in the whole series
I'm not saying he is bad, I'm just saying he is nowhere near professional yet (yet being the key word, because I feel he will get there) and RWBY needs professionals especially since the animations in v4 were pretty awful in the non fight scenes
Wtf? LOL. This guy did ALL OF THIS BY HIMSELF While The team of RWBY is a FKING TEAM OF PEOPLE. He probably has as much experience as them at this point considering the time span of completing this.Also the incredible raise in quality in comparison to lee vs Ruby
Definitely the best I've seen since Marks works.
Also a lot of inspiration from Neir Automa and the Fate series
Danzy 21 actually the creator said they took from deadman wonderland and something else I can't remember XD
Shawn Ark ah I see, thanks!
Danzy 21 no prob
Guys can u imagine if Mark worked with this creator 😮😮😮
In an alternative universe, this is canon.
#REMN
Indeed
YES
I have emotional attachments to most characters in RWBY so seeing Weiss choking Ruby is nightmare fuel.
I wish people stopped comparing this animator to Monty, 1 because monty can never be replaced, and 2 because thats kind of an insult considering a lot of people hate being in the shadow of others and being unable to leave said shadow
Voice-Over Plays my thoughts to the t, but I believe most people just aren't thinking before they act.
In all honesty, he measures up pretty well to Monty if you ask me.
Don't deify Monty and act as if it's some impossible act to make a fight good
This guy has potential to match Monty’s eye for choreos and animation. With enough time and practice, he will continue improving. You’re also being a hypocrite by saying people hate being in the shadow of others when you’re the one putting this guy in Monty’s shadow.
Sure, Monty can never be replaced but that doesn’t mean that no one can match his skill as THEMSELVES.
(Also, this animator most likely had a lot more time, to make this animation, compared to Rooster Teeth.)
Did anyone else think of Gilgamesh from fate when Weiss summoned swords
Christian mode more of unlimited bladeworks to me but that does fit
adam bruner it's exactly like Gilgamesh ... ubw is the reality Marble that just allows him to use more swords
The first thing that popped into my head is "I am the bone of my sword."
Datboi it's the creation aspect as Gilgamesh summons his swords while unlimited bladeworks copies the swords then creates an inferior copy to attack the foe. The ice swords look like they are being made and Unlimited bladeworks can be used in a manner similar to gate of Babylon after being cast hence bladeworks to me due to Weiss creating the ice swords.
Though the summoning of that monster can go to Gate of Babylon.
Christian mode could also think of Assassination Classroom regarding the moon...
This animation is amazing
Ezra Scarlet yea cool name
Also, this gal needs to duke it out with Adam Taurus.
Imagine, Angel vs. Devil: it’s a perfect match.
yes two iaido practitioners
Considering how weak Adam is in the show, He's screwed
@@CaptainAce847 adam taurus in v3 was originall to be most powerful swordsman but try delete
Because blake x yang
@@CaptainAce847I laughed at this harder than I should have.
It seems Angel's semblance revolves around the concept of revenge. We catch glimpses of her childhood that appears traumatic. Furthermore, Weiss and ruby did not always get along, so when she was infected by Angels' darkness/semblance, she grew hostile to Ruby.
Thoughts??
that's why she made contact with that semblance stuff on the ground it made her go ape shit but also it relies on a deep Hatred on someone example Weiss hated ruby so she would try to kill her but she grew to like ruby and became friends
exactly!!
My question is why does she look like she's part of the Schnee family?
Maybe angel is a runaway schnee! White hair, gravity glyph cage, wings, and slash, and a rapier hidden in walking stick with time dilation spinner.
Aaron Skinner I think its more Weiss being overtaken by her inner evil by a curse set upon by Angel
i was thinking wow RWBY really step up their animation.
Then i realized this is fanmade. Jesus what do we have to do to get you on RWBY team?
I don’t know but they need him his style is very similar to Monty’s
Dariel Lim I feel like season 5 animation is getting better
Eclipse it’s not the animation that’s the problem the problem is they don’t have choreography like when Monty was around
Girlcop17 I think it's both , idk something was just lacking in season 4
Eclipse indeed when Monty died they lost the guy who expertly knew how their program worked so they probably had to get used to it PS if you were to make an explanation for the slower fights try me
Im guessing the fact she used her glyphs as location or a motion detector is amazing pls keep up the good work and bring out your creativity
no her glyph doesn't act as a locator apparently there was a post on the creators twitter with angels info though her semblance didn't have a name but anyway the glyph when on the floor is in it's offensive state where it slows anyone who comes in contact with it while degrading their sanity, it also allows her to instantaneously move to any point on the glyph, which we see her do a few times, like the beginning when she first attacks weiss for example, Then when on her back as the wings it's in it's defensive mode which provides a 360 defence, which detects and counters any and all threats
And because someone may ask why did she bother deflecting the swords herself if she has the 360 defence, I have three answers which could all could be wrong,
1. Angel did it as a way to show the weiss that, even with the enhancement weiss was given from both of their glyphs and despite weiss throwing dozens of swords at angel each second, angel was still better by a wide margin
2. It was tactical since we see angel block the first barrage of swords but instead of breaking or falling or something the swords stay in place until thrown away by angel, my assumption is that weiss was trying to brute force her way through angel's defence which failed but weiss and angel had noticed if only temporarily she'd managed to pin angel down, since the wings are physical so if you push them you push angel, leading to weiss shooting hundreds of sword in attempt at pinning angel down long enough for weiss to summon gigas so it could hopefully breakthrough angel's defence, but while opening herself up somewhat she's still in constant motion and has nothing really stopping her
3. it was just easier to deflect the swords than let them pile up to the point she may not be able to simply push them away like she did with the first volley or risk the combined force of all those swords pushing in on her they breakthrough her defence
2:50 when you cast unlimited blade works just by dancing
3:48 I mean, that even looks like the reality marble
Kizuna Aoi
I am the bone of my Myrstenaster
Ice is my body, snow is my blood

So as I sing
Unlimited bladework
Kizuna Aoi Thanks. You are sweet.
Almost a year late but Weiss' setup was more Gate of Babylon. The Swords in the ground after Angel reflected them all DEFINITELY is a nod to Unlimited Blade Works.
Weiss in orochimaru's curse?
My thoughts exactly, and Gilgamesh's Gate of Babylon too BTW
Yann Rodrigues Fate?
the katana by akame akame ga kill
edo maulana she's Sasuke and her sister is Itachi
Weiss has a curse mark.
Been waiting for this for ages :) Your a miracle worker mate. More interested in this character than WATTS...Keep up the good work.
Murray Sheen isn't that the same as saying "I'm more interested in Ruby than Jaune", considering this is a direct dive into her abilities and story implications where as we know nothing of Watts? Similar to Ruby's Red Trailer in comparison to Jaune's first on screen appearance in the show. Like Jaune and Ruby in Volume 1, there's nothing of Watts to compare to Angel.
Rogue Pylon Aye true it wasn't a great comparison. Was just thinking of villains tbh...Ignore that part then haha...(I did realise that when I sent it)
"Let's junk all our great original antagonists and force boring new ones with awful designs for no reason"
Soarel we know nothing about them to call them boring where as everyone else has had 3 volumes to develop.
Giving them time to develop would mean the original villains, who I remind you, they put effort into developing and set up rivalries with the main protagonists with, wouldn't get any more focus. No Cinder, Em, Merc, or Neo anymore. They put so much time and effort into those characters and now they're just throwing them away.
missing monty's non stop style again
Tommy Kwong its fan made???
Green Teaღ yes
I think this person should have been implemented into the full show, I think it’s a great backstory.
This video in it if itself gives up the entire story pretty much. And I think the semblance was amazing
Man these guys are like the anti-RWBY team.
Frey Morgan ?
can you explain?
What does that mean??
basically they're reversed team rwby cause at the end of lees trailer his photo/logo was shown first but it was at the end where as rubys hers was at the beginning
its called the Shane was right team. current RT regime sucks at making rwby
I like how this is way better than any fight in RWBY vol. 4. Like on a different level. It's almost like having Monty Oum back. Well done!
The Iris I did say almost. If he keeps at it he could get there. This is definitely better than any fight in volume 4. At least, he knows to keep that camera moving.
David Partida yea sure
This animation while neat
Seams barely on par with volume 1 animation
So I’d have to say no it’s not better than volume 4
While volume 4 wasn’t filled with excitement the fights it did have were smooth and nice to look at
This animation has lots of sudden movements that seem choppy or unrealistic
Madnessman Well he's only comparing the fights anyway, it does trump volume 4 with its fighting choreography
Madnessman the choreography is far more interesting than the new ones from vol 3-4. Sure this animation isnt as smooth as the real ones but those are produced by a whole team while this is produced by one person. Choreography is good and he has potential to improve even more.
Dear reader, may I kindly ask you to thumb this comment up so that tommylau74 reads it? Thank you very much! Your support is much appreciated!
Dear Tommy, thank you for this amazing work of animation and tense storytelling!
Just like the trailers directed by Monty, your work becomes more and more beautiful each time I watch it. Your choreography is perfectly logical, and your shots are so beautifully composed! Angle´s wings took my breath away!
The reflection of Weiss on her own sword as she understands what a powerful enemy she is battling is one of the best transitions I have ever seen! I think you are incredibly talented! Even the sound design is so on point! The details in your animation are mind blowing! I think you must have been putting an incredible effort into making this!
I drew a storyboard and wrote an alternative screenplay for Ruby and Weiss for the RWBY season finale of volume 3 chapter 12. I worked very hard on it for more than two months, and it made me understand what an incredibly huge amount of work you must have been putting into this KCAL trailer for Angle! I I have very high respect for your dedication to your vision! I wrote The RWBY screenplay last year, but now I finally found the courage to upload it. Your work motivated me to get a video on UA-cam. It would make me very happy if you check it out and tell me your option about it!
'RWBY Ruby + Weiss Volume 3 Chapter 12 fight fan animation '
Please Keep up your great work. I hope you will have a bright future as director and animator!
Warmly

I just want to know though, WHO IS ANGEL, really? She's definitely a Schnee, there's no point in denying it....Also, don't you think Angel seems like an Adult who's many, many years older than Weiss?
Neo Ramey
🤔 You're right, she seems to be an adult. Seemingly she lost her eye sight during the fire, possibly at her home. The flowers in the meadow shot are the same as on the grip of her weapons handle.
Clearly she has been breaking free from a prison or similar, as suggested by the shot of the bird in the cave. Her spreading her wings next, means she is the bird in this metaphor.
I think, just like Weiss who can summon the knight she defeated, Angle can summon the cage she defeated and also 'cage' others, by controlling them...
Also her little scratch seemingly healed as she marked Weiss. As though she uses Weiss to heal. Also the pattern in Weiss's eye is the same as on Angle's weapon, so she seems to need this weapons to channel her power...
I noticed the man has red eyes, just like Grimm
or like Crow during his fight with Winter, so he might be a Branwen. Weather this man helped her to flee or caged her up, remains to be seen... But I think he helped her.👍
Now why would a Schnee attack another Schnee? Clearly Angle believe the entire Rwby team to be her enemy nor just Weiss, which I think could point to her having a bigger intentions... Maybe she does not even want to attack Weiss but believes she has too! Weiss does not seem to know her, even though they are from the same famous family. This means they did not grow up together... Maybe Angles existence is denied by her family... After all her name does not fit the entire winter theme perfectly. All Schnees are named after German words for well known phenomena in winter, expect for Angle...
There are many mysteries... I am very excited!
I hope Tommy will share more information on his vision with us in the future.😊👍
I'm agreeing that her semblance is Ink(Dark Glyphs) And she blinded herself so she could use her semblance without it corrupting her sanity like it did to Weiss during the battle. It doesn't explain why she didn't kill Weiss herself instead of carrying her and placing her next to Ruby, who was defeated by Lee, but clearly still alive. Also, I'm going to bet that only Schnee family members can be permanently Inked. It would explain why the effects of the semblance persist even though Angel left. Also, I'm really excited for the Yang fight because it's probably going to be robot arm Yang. And even though Yang is gonna lose, I bet that she's still going to put up afight.
Sorry,my english is suck,so I noticed that you had this question(Sorry anyone, google translator not very efficient)and I see your video. I can not help story(English, English, English.....)but I see animatic.I think temporary like turn-based(wiess go first and then ruby),you can think more they attacked at the same time ,is will fun.Good Luck
Thank you for answering! Great idea! It would look really cool :D!
It's just that, after Monty died I believe that animation was set back-- he had so much he wanted to do still and would have taught so many more people his techniques, it genuinely breaks my heart. Seeing this, it makes me happy to see that his unique style hasn't completely died with him.
I love how there's effort put in to this as you can see! AND I LOVE ANGELS WINGS!! Some past stuff happens and stuff that I rlly don't know about angel but she's strong! And I kinda hated the fact that she kinda made Weiss into a psychopath,I won't mind it and u totally improved ur animation skills :O
PomPom Melanie's maby her ability is to increase a persons rage and we know she has issues with rwby already that just amplified it
PomPom Melanie's psychopath*, there's no confusing one with the other.
PomPom Melanie's finally someone here who actually appreciates his work!
Hmmm. She's a blind fighter... maybe her power is something to do with transferring her memories? Or altering memories? Idk but from what I'm seeing in this film, Angel may be her long lost mother. (This is all fan made so it's not canon of course)
I was thinking the creator took inspiration from Nier with the pattern going on Weiss' skin and the blindfold and color palette of Angel resembling the androids in Automata.
I like that they put a bit of a twist with the angel wings and bird in the cage concept though.
this shit here youtube THIS IS WHAT NEEDS TO BE IN MY RECOMMENDED
I'm getting Nier Automata vibes here...
Yup. Definitely. Positively. ABSOLUTELY.
Ooooooo.. I love Angel’s semblance. It’s looks so mesmerizing.
And ending is awesomely terrifying.
This deserves more views. I REPEAT. THIS. DESERVES. MORE. VIEWS.
Alexandra Martinez agreed quick get the people who react to RWBY specifically the ones who reacted to Mark Zhang and spread the word also on the rwby amino if you use that app
Alexandra Martinez you're right. Quick, tell your friends to like it. And if you don't have enough friends, make some and tell them to leave a like.

Megatron Kim Caged Bird then gets wings and becomes bird oh wow
Shadowtechnik The Schnee semblance are Glyphs that work as platforms that defy gravity, barriers and launchers. They also enable Time Dilation and Summoning projections of enemies the summoner had defeated.
It is the same as weiss, but used with a higher level of mastery
Rogue Pylon and work with other people to empowered their attacks, speed, strength...soooo :')
I agree
Rooster teeth needs to higher you for at least their fight scenes. I mean standing ovation.
*hire
but i agree. This feels more like a RWBY fight scene than anything from vol4-5.
Hire*
Wow. This animation got me waiting for more. Amazing.
Although I seriously thought Weiss was fighting with her future self. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY!
WHO WAS THAT GUY AT THE END!?
The hook? That came from Lee, the first character introduced for team KCAL
I had a Kingdom Hearts feel to it.
_I'm hoping I'm not the only one who got that feel._
You're not wrong, Weiss herself would be someone who could fit really well in Kingdom Hearts.
I'm Not Here Yep, specifically the final confrontation with Xemnas in KH2, deflecting the thousands of lasers.
That fight choreography tho! Way better than what the rwby team has done since Monty. Great job!
I know right I miss Monty’s style he choreographed it like a video game whic felt awesome
Canchrema did you not see raven vs cinder?
SaltySake Raven vs cinder was awesome but the main appeal to Monty’s style was that the fights were nonstop fast attacks which is why people dislike it compared to months work because it isn’t as fast just take a look at the yang trailer for volume1 it’s far faster than raven vs cinder
Raven vs cinder was good and a step in the right direction but it sure isn't "there" yet.
I’m in love with these fight scenes! You brought back what Rooster Teeth is now missing! Thank you, your work is appreciated!
Stuff like this really makes me wish the show had this level of strategy and tactical thinking among combatants in its fights.
That was one trippy fight. Who is Angel supposed to be anyway, Weiss' mother?........... OOOOOOOOOOOH I get it now! Angel Schnee, snow angel, I can't believe it took me this long to realize.
My theory is that Angel is Weiss mother to this alternate universe.
She was keep by her husband Jacques Schnee in a cage-life experienced and in return he corrupted her by some dark power. Probably related to Salem or the God of Darkness influenced.
Snow Angel!
XD
@@rogueascendant6611 Or she could be this Jacques' illegitimate daughter. Or maybe even Willow's considering the latter is an actual Schnee.
Yes.
I think that Monty himself would be proud.
He's probably reincarnated in Remnant. Either going as a Huntsman, jabbing with Ozpin and Salem and being a professor in Beacon Academy.
I bet Monty would love this.
There is enough lore to disprove this, but it feels like Angel is a Schnee, possibly even being a future version of Weiss that was corrupted in some way
I was thinking the same thing because of how Weiss had those markings on her body.
Who said the Schnee are the only Glyph bloodline?
Only one family happen to have a hereditary Semblance?
@@Ramsey276one no, but maybe the only ones to have the Glyph semblance be hereditary, the odds of two families having the same hereditary semblance is quite low
@@laethinfowler2317 exactly
@@Ramsey276one Exactly? You asked what makes the schnee family the only glyph bloodline, and I said that the odds of two separate families having the same hereditary semblance is really low, how does that support what you were saying?
One year later, and this still makes my day everytime I watch it. I don't think I'm waiting more for a sequel than with this KCAL team and Mark Zhang's SLVR team.
I mean, I liked RWBY Vol.6 (even tho Vol.4 and 5 almost made me drop the show, because... shit tons of reasons), but I'm more hyped for these two "amateurs" team Trailers than for the official show, even when knowing we may very well NEVER have any new video for them. I can just hope.
Same here
I am more confident writing than drawing
But current RT is not an impossible goal to pass XD
But the ending is so fricken creepy!
2creepy4me
kimnicknicole f It was very creepy. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd rate the ending as 10.5😱😱😱😱😱
Agree
I think it maybe Angel’s semblance. I think she can corrupt people... maybe.
yes, yes it is. im not going to look at rwby the same way again now...
Dunno how Rooster Teeth haven't hired this person yet.. He's doing a better job at this than the actual team..
I'm guessing that Angel has some sort of relation to Weiss? As the 'cage' that was shown in the video had the Schnee emblem. I'd love to guess that she may possibly be an aunt or possible alternate reality self.. The theory of Angel being her mother is unlikely, as Weiss' mother was never said to have any condition, or any health related conditions like how Angel is wearing a blindfold. I'm just assuming Angel is blind but has heightened awareness, (Basically just a female Daredevil) Though it's also an amazing but crazy idea to think of Angel as maybe an evil clone of Weiss?
Maybe. Weiss's dad tried to create a clone as a puppet to force his will unto the Schnee company. He would look a lot better with a daughter of the Schnee family on his side.
deray bell If that is actually what happened, then Jacques Schnee is a bigger piece of shit than I thought.
That's the point.
The fact that a 1 man team can do better work than a full team of people with better tech to do the work kind of says something about what RT is doing. Are they getting lazy or what? The new animation looks beautiful now but if we gotta go back to Maya to get better fight choreos like this then I'd drop Poser without question.
Actually Weiss's mother is alive, just an alcoholic because she has to live with jauc, so no.
I don't want to hear anyone praising Rooster Teeths volume 4+ choreography after witnessing this. Imagine facial expressions, hair moving, dancing...actually using the various abilities you have. This was fantastic...
Yes also the problem I have with rwby now is how they have a team of animated and we'll look at the vid
Wow. So you don’t want people to like the show because you found something that, in your opinion is better. That’s kinda fucked up. What if someone hated this and said they didn’t want to see any likes on videos of other RWBY fan animators? I bet you’d be upset and think that was unfair towards people trying their best.
@@sorinxi7455 That's not even what I said. People can like the show if they want, but they're deluding themselves if they think the animation there is better than this video here. My point is that RT should be able to do better.
@@lynpotter6471 That’s not what you said, though. You said you didn’t want to hear anymore praise for Volume 4 onwards. That wasn’t restricted to animation. And even then, it’s an opinion. The animation in V6 onwards is phenomenal, and much smoother than this in my **opinion.** Everything you mentioned in the original comment is in the show aside from dancing (which is Weiss-specific), so it’s not even like this did something new. Let people like what they wanna like.
@@sorinxi7455 It was restricted to choreography.
If you like the show, go ahead and like it. I'm glad it works for you.
So here is what I got from this
This woman is Weiss's mother, When Weiss was little her father locked her mother in a room for probably a similar reason that he locked Weiss for, after being locked for too long she eventually had a breakdown as she felt like a bird in a cage and just like how we saw the schnee semblance can go out of control sometimes (like we saw with Weiss in volume 4) her semblance got corrupted and turned like that, so she went on a rampage and left the schnee family
When Weiss fought her mother and came in direct contact with the corrupted schnee semblance, it corrupted hers as well and caused her to go through a similar rampage that her mother had, which is why the giant knight became beseker and she went psycho
Good theory bro...😀
So, I'm getting the feeling that this is more than just random fights and that there is a story going on here. And to be honest, your setting it up beautifully while also keeping us all in suspense. Your character are interesting and seem to be a true match to team RWBY in much a similar way as Tyrian. Except unlike Tyrian they're manageable enough to make a one on one fight interesting. Also, this 'Angel' seems to be a great foil to weiss on multiple levels.
I must ask, will we see Yang and Blake have to contend with the other half of team KCAL(i remember that panel from the first video for 30 days)? I can not wait to see who they would have to stand against, and how it adds to this story. I love your work and your are creating a very nice story. I hope you not only continue this project but also turn it into a full fan series (if you have the time of course) as it would be very well received. This story already had me on the edge of my seat and i can't help but wonder who are the member of KCAL are(I personally LOVE mohammad sharif's theory on angel a few comments down). Well done good sir, please keep up the fantastic work.
I've been designing all member, it's a matter of time
Please make those two other characters lore, please. I'm interested. I want to see more.

Mongrel.
Theory time:
It took me a while, but I think I have an idea of the blind woman's semblance. The black patterns she casts on the ground can cause the opposer touching it to lose their sanity, or have their mind corrupted. As seen, Weiss and the Blind Woman both wear the same crazy expression: wild eyes and a smile that screams homocide. Notice that the black patterns took over only one side of Weiss, (which happened when she fell on the patterns, her right hand touching them, spreading it throughout her right side.) Therefore, she isn't completely insane. (Which is why she snapped out of it after almost choking Ruby to death)
And Weiss avoids touching/ being touched by the black patterns any more by dancing around them when the Blind Woman begins to shift them around. And With every semblance there's a drawback, and this one is that the insanity also kinda works against the user. When the insanity took over, Weiss seemed to be less cautious, more reckless, seemed to move more... freely.
( They always say the the more psychotic the character the more powerful)
I'm curious about the Blind Woman, like why is she blind? Maybe it had to do with the bleeding eyes? Or was that symbolic? How did she lose her sanity? Was it due to being locked up? Was she abused/tormented? Or maybe she was insane from the beginning which was the reason why she was locked up?
Roosterteeth should NOT hire this guy as many people are saying, cause they seem to squander any talent they have ever sinew Monty passed.
No, you should go on to make far better works of your own, seriously, this work is akin to the stuff Monty himself did, your choreography is just spot on, I could definately see you doing just as well if not better.
Good luck, I hope to see more in the future.
Honestly, I can't help but agree, and particularly because it doesn't seem like RT and RWBY's team will get their act together soon enough to really make quality use of their workers.
@chocopiemaria2003 Perhaps but currently, they aren't looking like they are improving enough with each volume, or even just at times seemingly getting worse in terms of overall quality. Particulars being lacking of consistency between frames of view of where individuals are located on a plane, characters lacking focus/attention or getting too much as a side-character, fight scenes (especially the finale of V5) lacking sense or rather just quality of a true all-out battle, and so on (as a number of individuals on YT have made videos on critiquing the RWBY series).
It's not that I hate RWBY, it's that I am disappointed and wanting more than what it is currently as it should be, and because of that I find it hard to watch when I really do want to enjoy it... But in the end I can't, not until they get their act together, maybe even take some writing and animation classes, and overall just improve. True artists, to me, do not settle for "ok", they strive to improve, to learn, and to grow with their art and style and capabilities to make even better works than ever before.
@chocopiemaria2003 No. He should avoid RWBY as much as possible right now, because it is clear not even the staff care much about the series anymore, and their has been so many claims of staff still being scrutinized after Monty's death. You don't change overnight, because the same was done with Death Battle and how the earlier animators felt of their treatment of them. It's why One Minute Melee is it's own separate thing now, and many of the animators that did Death Battle currently work with them now.
You're right on one count. He shouldn't be hired to make RWBY.
But I'd amend it by saying that he shouldn't because many of the fans are ungrateful and never seem to be pleased with anything no matter what Rooster Teeth does to try and improve. Heck, most of them would probably choke on their own words trying to give the show a compliment for what they've done right. And no one needs to deal with that kind of pressure.
I agree that not all of the decisions, particularly with the writing and storytelling, that have been made in the recent volumes have been brilliant. Actually there are several which I am highly unsatisfied with as a fan of the show.
But they have worked really hard and improved the show in some areas. For example the animation is so much better and smooth now compared to the earlier seasons.
Furthermore their fight scenes are steadily improving since Monty's unfortunate passing, in fact the only one I'd label as bad is the season 5 finale, excluding the Raven vs Cinder which was dope, but again that was more of a writing issue.
There is nothing wrong with constructive criticism when coupled with the praise that they're due too. But too many people are forgetting to do the praise bit.
@@TheAscendedDragon The overall quality of the show has done nothing but improve (with the exception of Volume 4, imo). Everything but the action has gotten loads better. The voice acting in Volume 1 varied from acceptable to shit but now it's ALL really good. They've got well known professional voice actors like Christopher Sabbat and Cherami Leigh, hell even Monica Rial actually did a good job in it. I actually care about the characters, which I didn't really back in the first 2 Volumes. The story is pretty good, though it took a while to actually get there. Good world building, too. The character development is decent, as well. Basically, the show keeps getting better and better, for the most part. Especially visually. Volume 1 looks like trash compared to 6.
So there's a few mistakes.. so what? Someone being located in a different location on a plane isn't really a big deal. It's a criticism worth pointing out but if that's one of your biggest complaints, that's pretty ridiculous.
She would make an amazing antagonist in the actual series
I love how creative the fans are
I don't care what rt has to say about it, this is officially cannon now
weiss’ facial expression was so terrifying and gave me chills. very well done
The person Weiss is fighting reminds me of 2B
I was thinking that as well
Every character with white hair and something over their eyes doesn't automatically make me think of 2B lol

You did an amazing job animating this. Not a lot of people can animate like this and make something fanmade this good especially because Weiss is like perfect minus the missing scar on her left eye. I like how you put a pattern and changed the colour of her right eye. This is wonderfully done. Amazing job well done.
I have never seen a more graceful fight in all my life
You know that feeling when you have a creative idea but somewhere in the world someone else is having the exact same idea but they are like 18 months ahead of you and way more talented. I found this just threw my hands up like that was awesome. This blind character has been running through my head for years and i'm just like yup that's her and her powers.
As a Weiss fanboy I can says that you did amazing
Where'd the art in the header of your profile come from?
Incredible vid!! I loved the complexity of the story going on, the fight choreograpy was awesome, weiss doing ballet to avoid the glyphs, the animation!!! I loved everything about u did an amazing job :)
that moment when a fan animates a fight in rwby style better than rooster teeth itself
But roster team is trying and this one sence took a month by one person. And after losing montey one it's been hard for them
@Never Ending Dream Monty did do a great job because he made the animations more like a dance, instead of a fight. But you saw when season 4 started it looked rougher, since Monty isn't here anymore
@@linleyhumanfoodlover8204 fortunately as of season 6, they have grealty improved the fight scenes. its like they have actualyl learned from theri experiences and pooled them together. capturing some of that old magic again. along with combining their experiments ins storytelling.
Feel free to disagree with me but to be honest, I think this animation is better than RWBY season/volume 5... The fighting choreography is really amazing!
Mai Anh Tran then you need some glasses. Yes this animation is amazing, but Volume 5 is on a whole another level. Although, this person doing it alone has some good talent.
If you are talking about the definition and image in general then yes the main series is kinda better, but the fighting animation has been really bad since Monty passed away, lackluster and slow as a snail to put it kindly. This fighting animation though, I have to say it again and again, is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G
jesuisoriginale pointcom The volumes 4-5 choreography were incredible shit until the end of volume 5. The storyline was tedious and the chapters were too short to keep me hanging on to it. I literally only watched it because I LOVED the series but now it's just some real hot garbage. This is SO much greater compared to all of volumes 4-5. Yeah the graphics could be a bit better and stuff but this leaves GOOD questions unanswered plus this single fight was better than all of volume 4 and almost all of 5 up until the Cinder and Raven fight.
Bambi c: Mmmmh....I guess so. But the thing I have with RWBY is that I understand NOTHING OF THE STORY. nothing. I'm not english to begin with but I could understand what was going on....until volume 5. Buut I'm just dumb lol. But yeah the animations can be kinda shitty but it's getting better....I think.
jesuisoriginale pointcom The story was good up until volumes 4-5 don't worry
THIS IS WHAT WE FUCKING WANT, ROOSTERTEETH. TAKE SOME FUCKING NOTES. You see, we don't just want clean and shiny character models, we want to be drawn into a lethal dance. We want see combat choreographed to have MEANING and STORY behind them not just some flailing of arms and legs being pulled into convenient spaces. This here is an example of a diamond in the rough. Tommylau, polish your work. You have the shine of a truly amazing gem.
Angel feels a lot like a nier automata character to me and I like that, this is genuinely amazing
I legit thought Weiss was fighting Nana Schnee
LOL XD
Probably was.
She has a Glyph like Semblance, along with a similar theme of being trapped. Seems she went nuts though.
If she were to have gone nuts, why she'd so solemn when she fought Weiss...and I know she's blind, but it looked she knew all of Weiss's abilities...Implying that she's the kind of blind who can see you and know what you look like because if she were truly blind she wouldn't have known Weiss was a Schnee who uses Glyphs?! Also, who else felt like this whole battle was a test or something?
Well, actually Weiss's mother was referenced in the show, she's a drunkard and it was said she was home in Atlas staying as far away from her husband as humanly possible.
I want Rwby volume 5 fights to look like this
Me too, I wish! But much to our disappointment, RT are intentionally making the fights crap now and we'll never see good choreo again :(
REALLY, is it SO HARD for RT to hire talent like THIS, and put time into making their fight scenes instead of outright ignoring them entirely. I hope that RT doesn't forget it was months choreography and excellent pacing in his work that even got the show discovered in the first place.
King Arthur Thank GOD I'm not the only one who has noticed this. Every time I mention it, some fan goes wild and makes up excuses like "there doesn't have to be a fight in every episode". Well, there doesn't need to be a fight for the sake of story either. Volume 2 started off with an epic full episode food fight and that contributed nothing to the story because it was just for shits and giggles and it was awesome! RT is intentionally avoiding fights as much as possible and, even when there is a fight, I noticed that they do some shortcuts. For example, there was a huge opportunity to showcase a battle between Adam and Khan but they just decided to take the cliche route and kill her mid-speech. That's a lazy way to kill off an important and powerful character. It'd be understandable to kill her mid-speech if she didn't suspect anything wrong but she clearly knew shit was about to go down.
Soarel check the latest one before you wreck yourself, also saying it like that is calling the workers FULL ASS BLOWN HARD WORK like shit, that’s messed up -.-
Naomi it’s called budget, sorry if I sound like a butt hurt fan, but think how much cartoons or shit they have made, all that effort just so people can complain like where are the fights?! Wait, look at the latest one, they have an amazing fight, if you want it now i can spoil the whole god damn thing if ya want. Also Khans mostly about peace and I doubt she would want to fight, but then again I see your point, but think how stressful RT is, with people nagging at them, hate, battles, questions, mistakes, when the next episode will be out, and things like that, it’s not easy running that kind of things. Lets just enjoy what we have.
My logic might be fucked up a little but it’s like 1 AM
How Weiss made swords is exactly the same concept from Gate of Babylon and UBW together, UBW allows to create swords, Gate of Babylon summons them from Gilgamesh's treasure, like Weiss glyphs calling the swords that creates and shoots from everywhere
Well Weiss Summons would be closer to UBW considering it takes her strenght to summon it and not like gil having nearly unlimited swords stored.Weiss uses her semblance similar to gate of babylon but it is fueled and supplied with magic andcohesion similar to UBW :)
I hope this person is working on rwby, they really have a good understanding on the battle ideas and movements, as well was the powers used and the badasser of it all- when this first came out, i thought this was weiss's mother and that was her parent's story lol. its just golden, glad i found this video again
You know what?
I find this a thousand times better than the Volume 4 of RWBY
You're doing a really great job ^_^
Arwin Sanlia yup all of volume 4 was "meh" even the super hyped up nuckalavee
THANK YOU! I thought I was the insane one when I didn't think Vol 4 didn't live up to the hype, granted most of it was because I miss Monty's touch in the fight scenes. But now I haven't even started Vol 5... anyone here who still watches RWBY can tell me if it's worth getting back into?
kingofsapi In the most recent episode, there was a 15 second scene that had probably the best action animation I have seen from the show since Torchwick, Blake, and Sun from Volume 1 (i never really liked anything from Volume 2 3 or 4 aside from Qrow and Tyrian).
The story itself has really progressed as well and im actually enjoying it for the first time since the second half of volume 3. There are two plotholes that i find very annoying but generally people dont seem to be bothered by them.
Really? Hmm... did they hire a new choreographer for the show? Okay... I might, MIGHT get back into it. Volumes one and two are still my favorite, until the tone change in season 3. :P
kingofsapi I'd say to watch it. They brought back Sun's gunchucks and the animation looked really good
Man it's almost getting 300,000 views and it's getting faster views than Mark's Linen trailer
This guy's choreography is very good, but I still think Mark Zhang's is better.
Soarel yeah there were some parts that were confusing but overall it was good and gave a creepy and questionable feeling at the end with angel that was also good because it was giving a story or something
Olarson Domingo The story telling in this is a lot better than Mark. Mark is really good with smoother transitions and dynamic fight scenes. I'd watch videos from both these guys any day though.
Yume Matsushita agreed Mark has a good animation with a bit of a story about questions on who is this Brandon guy (charcoal) and what are those robotic knights he has and Tommy has a pretty good animation that's on par with Mark's but not exactly like Mark's but gave a type of story on a character and had that beautiful art at the end where Angel is like on a rampage killing those giant knight thing( I don't know what those are in the actual show) and with that jumpscare with Angel's crazy face made it pretty this video pretty interesting
Mark just has a lot more experience. This is Tommy's 2nd trailer that he's made. Mark's made 4, with each of them improving from Charcoal to Linen. Mark went from stiff, quite robotic movements to smooth, swift, fluid, and fast paced movements. Tommy's Lee trailer was actually quite a bit like Mark's Charcoal in terms of animation. Both were pretty stiff and robotic, however Mark's Charcoal was better in my opinion due to the fight between the Samurai Robots and Charcoal as it was a lot more fluid and fast paced than Tommy's Lee trailer.
Tommy's Angel trailer, in my opinion, is better than Mark's Silver, but not at the level of Mark's Viridian trailer. I speculate, however, by the time that Tommy gets to his 3rd trailer, which is probably going to be C since Tommy seems to be doing his trailers from L to K, it'll be on the same level as Viridian or at least close to it.
I'm actually quite excited to see what's next! Definitely subbing for sure!
RIP Rooster Teeth. RIP RWBY. You were just a skin suit in the end, but the final death of you is still heartbreaking

@@pawdesu8451 I'm more of a final fantasy boss.
@@princeofqrow3181 then where's hp
Why does this seem like rooster teeth could have made it
Or Monty
aphichat tonjai Probably because the animation is as good as the animation in RWBY Volume 1. That level of animation is great, until you see the other volumes and realise it could be better.
Not that it isn't great already. It IS good. But it could be better.
They could have, but they chose not to due to a misguided desire to be "cinematic".
I mean from the new RWBY official trailer, I'd say I prefer the choreography in this instead
RIP fight choreography :(
God I love this animation, I always come back to it, everything from the music to the animation to the character design to the choreography, it’s all so good!
Monty Ohm, Mark Zang and now Tommy Lau. Im starting to see a pattern here
