Just a quick little fun fact: Ruby and Yang both forged their own weapons while in school, so they built them to have that extreme recoil that they use to move them around the battlefield. And like 99% of weapons you see in the show has some form of firearm/ranged ability.
Yeah... Trust me I can't believe as well. Although I dropped the Series after Vol 6... But these old Trailers and the Early Volumes till S6 still my favourite.
one thing you should know about RWBY: “It’s Also A Gun.” almost every weapon is also a gun. There’s a cane that is also a rifle, there’s an axe that’s also a blunderbuss, Weiss’ Rapier is also a revolver, etc.
Later, when a character whipped out a gun, my first thought was if that gun was also a gun. Truthfully, it would be quicker to name off the weapons that aren't also a gun.
I find it despairing how many reactors blinkered on that. at the very least one should be able to assume that that was the Last Straw in a continuing chain of bad signs.
The additions by Rooster Teeth to the "remastered" trailers doesn't help her either. The original Oum trailer had A LOT less talking, as in only two phrases being spoken (the "what about the crew" exchange, and the single "goodbye"). That made the words stay in your brain until the end
@@hansolav5924 So, she's known for a while that he's an evil person and only now just decided to break off from him? They should've gathered that him not caring about the passengers was the reason why she left, though.
@@Adanu191 I blame the short attention-span programmed into most americans by their media. oh, and their poor school system.I recall no issues understanding her reasoning when first I saw it.
Ok so a few things: The Red Trailer was made entirely by one dude, the creator of this series, Monty Oum as a proof of concept. There’s a couple of canon lore bits (the music and the grave) but it was mainly to show the concept off. The rest of the trailers have more canon lore to them so and are pretty awesome. RWBY is pronounced like Ruby. Monty Oum sadly passed away in February five years ago due to an allergic reaction after the second volume of this show so now it’s headed up by his co-writers Miles and Kerry and the rest of CRWBY. Monty also did all the fight scenes while he was still around, and he was a legend at it. RIP Monty. Each character is based off a fairytale, legend, story of some sort and let us know if you’re okay with us telling you which ones are which cuz I promise a lot of us are gonna wanna tell you. The animation is very limited in the first couple seasons because RT had the budget of a shoestring but the production quality does improve as it goes on, they were also animating in Poser which is... limited. Has a certain charm to it tho. Speaking of that production the first volume’s budget was, again, shoestring. So episodes were split into two parters that were barely five minutes each. I’d recommend reacting to the first volume like so after the trailers: Ep 1, 2+3, 4+5, 6+7, 8, 9+10, 11+12, 13+14, 15, and 16. Just so you have enough material for an actual reaction vid. Thankfully this is only a problem for V1. Blake’s weapon is described as a ballistic variant chain scythe. It’s basically a katana that doubles as a gun that she can swing around on a ribbon and the sheath is also a cleaver. Yang is my favorite.
Thanks so much for all this info on the show. And some people already got excited to tell us who each character is based off of 😜 Appreciate the recommendation on how to watch the show for the first season should we decided to check it out 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 I would love if you did reactions to it. The first season is short, about the length of a normal movie. But the music is amazing
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 I'm happy for your 25K followers, firstly!! A great achievement these days!! Secondly, I'm glad you loved the trailers for RWBY & had so many questions!! I got hooked on the series the same way myself. Thanks to my Oldest Step-grandson!! He knew I love anime and good storytelling. RWBY is both and more.... LOL So, I do hope you two will take in the first season. The RWBYverse is a lot to take in, but it is worth it!! I'll check in on your journey thru it!! 😎👍🌹👏😂 P.S. - (JUST ABOUT) Everything is also a GUN!! LMAO
I love how Weiss' character developed over the series, but the impression of her character that her trailer gives to how she acts when she's introduced in the show was such polar opposites xD
In hindsight, it's probably because the White Trailer takes place while she is at home under her father's control vs when she starts attending Beacon and finally has more freedom but also has to deal with people her age who aren't part of the Atlas elite.
@@jordinagel1184 Nah, there were way more characters that got development at the expense of Ruby, and Weiss isn't one of them. Weiss is one of the four main characters, she should have all the development she has. There are however other characters that did get development at the expense of Ruby, who aren't even main characters, so the time spent developing them isn't even warranted. There are plenty of characters that you could take scenes away from to give Ruby more, and Weiss is at the very bottom of that list. I wouldn't even put her on the list at all, but if she must go on it, then it's the bottom.
@@ItsXetren Well, Weiss still got way more development than any of the four main characters (save perhaps Blake) in the first three seasons, making pretty good progress from the b*tchy princess she was originally. I get that she needs development too, and what she got was good, but really Ruby should’ve come before, or very shortly after. Actually, more than Weiss, I think Jaune is the one who was hogging way too much screen time, considering he’s not even part of the main quartet (and is voiced by one of the writers of the show… Hmm…)
Rest in peace mounty oum. He did such badass animations, even before Rooster Teeth was built. If you love badass fight scenes, he also made "dead fantasy" which is a fan animation of final fantasy vs dead or alive characters
Congrats on 25k! Your patrons have excellent taste for suggesting RWBY, it's wild ride, really intelligent world building and character development. Plus it has a huge reaction fanbase that will flock to your channel! Please continue!
I mean, the action’s pretty good (REALLY good in the first few seasons), but… Intelligent world building and character development are NOT things I’d associate with the show. Passion, yes, but even that fizzled out after Monty’s passing.
@@jordinagel1184Personally I think the character development is a mixed bag. Some characters have really good development ("Ice Queen" and "Remnant's Best Leg Breaker") but others have very little development (a certain drunk)
Ruby is probably my favorite but Weiss's character development throughout the series ties her for first. In terms of just fighting styles it would probably be Ruby, Blake, Yang, and then Weiss.
I've personally never seen ruby but I hear the choreography when it comes to combat is absolutely crazy, and if you were ever to react to the series I'm pretty sure the creators are completely fine with full/edited reactions as long as you don't react to the newest episodes when they come out
Yes, RoosterTeeth has historically been fine with reactors posting full-episode reactions on UA-cam. If a reaction video gets taken down, it is usually UA-cam's automatic copyright bots doing it, and not RoosterTeeth themselves. So a quick email sees things restored in under a couple days. Some reactors take this into account, and post their videos privately first so that any hiccups can be dealt with behind the scenes without messing up a release schedule.
That seems to be the case with all of their content. Older stuff is fine to react to but newer content they obviously want people to see first on their channel. Makes total sense and always appreciative of when companies are reaction friendly 😊😀
(At 13:24) Adam: Perfect! Move up to the next cart. _I'll_ set the charges. Blake: What about the crew members? Adam: What about them? (In a "Doesn't give a shit" tone)
It’s crazy to think that I was a child when RWBY came out and now I’m an adult that pays taxes and all of the other things that comes with being an adult and I’m still watching it lol. This is genuinely one of my favorite things that I’ve ever watched. You really grow so attached to the characters! There’s a lot of badass women in this show and I highly recommend watching this if y’all have the time! And, Yang (Yellow) is and will always be best girl for me lol. Congrats on the milestone!!! 🙌🏾
I'm so glad you guys checked out the RWBY trailers and I hope you continue with this show, It's amazing. The characters, world building and storytelling in this show are phenomenal so It's 100% worth a watch. If you ever think about doing a reaction to this series then just know that: A) Rooster Teeth are great with copyright as they love people reacting to their stuff, just send them an email to sort it out. B) RWBY fans usually flock to people reacting to the show as we love to see them 😁. You'll likely get a lot of people to your channel with even this video. That's all for that. This was a great video, love you guys!
1:45 …let’s just say the name origin for Rooster Teeth involves the alternate name for a rooster and bite…a joke one of the founders made the the others hated for sticking lol Some fun trivia: the first trailer, “Red”, Monty Oum did by himself while he was working on other shows (he was the lead animator for Rooster Teeth’s biggest show at the time, Red vs Blue), which he did in less than three weeks-he was a huge multitasker, even whipping up costumes during production crunch times. And one the singers in these trailers was the daughter of the lead composer for the series, Casey Lee Williams, who was only 14 at the time when she was hitting those high notes in the “White” trailer
Omg! I just dropped everything as soon as I saw this on my timeline!! I'm a huge RWBY fan, I would absolutely love to see you react to the full series. the main characters are Ruby Rose Weiss Schnee Blake Belladonna Yang Xiao long My favorite character is definitely Yang, a quick description of the series. The world that RWBY takes place in is called "Remnant". Many of the characters have a special ability called a "Semblance", every character's Semblance is unique to them. The 4 main characters go to a school called Beacon, where they train and use their powers to fight the black and white monsters that are called Grimm. Also, almost every character's weapon is also a gun. I love this show because it has a lot of amazing action scenes and incredible storylines, there's a lot of lore and backstory about the universe that RWBY exists in as well.
YEEEEEEESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh heck yes! I recommended this one before and am super hyped that you two decided to give it a shot. Love this series. And honestly, the FNDM will flock to your channel in droves if you start reacting to this one. Our quest for more people to react to this show is eternal and insatiable. This series is very welcoming to reactors so if you were interested, you definitely could react to the series as a whole and not have to worry about strikes on your channel. Rooster Teeth will clear any UA-cam strike issues from the UA-cam bots on the videos if you contact them, I think usually within like 24 or 48 hours. But Rooster Teeth encourages reactions to this show. Also, the series has an AMAZING soundtrack, mostly all sung by one person named Casey Lee Williams (who was I think 12 or so at the time of these trailers). The songs are full of worldbuilding so most people will tell you to listen to them after each volume to get more info (and just to have an awesome time because again, songs are bangers). To answer confusion about why Blake left Adam at the end of her trailer at a surface level, when he said he would set the charges she asked "what about the crew members" he said "what about them?" Can't say more without spoilers for the show. My favorite trailer was White as I love her design and I'm a fan of 1v1 battle more than 1 vs army style fights and then in the show, my favorite of the 4 girls was Ruby (Red) for a while, but at the point of the show now, my favorite is solidly Weiss (white). My favorite trailer to watch people react to is definitely Red though. The moment of that first shot always gets some amazing reactions out of people. I hope you two continue with this series sometime. From what I've seen of your content, I'm confident you two will enjoy it.
I am so glad yaw are reacting to this, this is one of my favorite series right now, did yaw know that when this show first started out by Monty Oum the creator R.I.P. it was only in about 5-to-10-minute segments, but the show took off into popularity and it became a series, also the song Red Like Roses parts 1&2 is an extremely emotional and dark song if you take the time to listen to the lyrics, and I love it.
RWBY!! YUS! This is a series I'm seriously hoping you guys react to as it is a very interesting story and you'll fall in love with all the characters involved. With RWBY (pronounced Ruby) we've got Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang as our four main heroines. I hope you guys do check this out cause it won't disappoint.
Hope you watch more! Love seeing people react to RWBY. Just a warning, RWBY fans can be a bit careless with their comments, often over explaining things if the reactors miss or forget something, so you might have to worry about spoilers a little bit.
"with the brutality of it all, it's still so pretty" That's Monty Oum for you. Insanely beautiful talent and I wish he wasn't taken away from us so soon.
Congrats on the milestone. You've gathered my sub because of RWBY and I will check out your other reactions. The one thing to keep in the back of your mind is that (for the most part) the RWBY community is present and helpful and that Rooster Teeth (unlike other studios) really seems to love their reactors. They have a few rules that they expect you to follow but, them allowing complete reactions is (so I've heard) seldom allowed. I'm looking forward to watching more RWBY with you guys, and again, congrats.
Love to see you embark on this fun ride. Don't get caught up in the shortcomings or the divisive negative commenters, don't let people give you spoilers (part of the fun is the discovery and figuring stuff out on your own), pay attention to the music (spectacular music BTW) and take a number of chapters at a time - they're pretty short. Also check out World of Remnant midway Volume 2 for world building exposition. This is my favorite animated series.
congrats on 25k! definitely watch through the show! its a wild ride sometimes! but if youre staying on the shorter side of things, a fan animator by the name of Mark has his own RWBY fan animations that have been getting progressively better and better, and practically are on the level of the show
Only bit I'll add that I didn't set elsewhere, is that the music is all custom written to the theme and story of the show. So every song has layers of meaning, and they've done it for eight seasons and counting. Most of the characters are voiced by employees at Rooster Teeth, as Monty asked them to be the characters. Even added they personality to them, such as Yang telling terrible puns all of the time
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 it wasn't a large company yet, so the story on how RWBY came to be is as wonderful as the show itself. Monty Oum was a wonderful person and amazing creator
The why of Blake leaving is right there in the Black trailer itself. First the opening quote. Blake was done with being burdened by Adam's violence, such as being willing to murder the train's crew just to cover up a theft. So she left to 'find her own liberation.'.
Oh, this is a treat. Glad you guys liked the trailers! I recommend checking out the trailers by Mark on UA-cam. They're fan-made and phenomenal! If you do check those out, they go in the order of: Charcoal, Silver, Viridian, Linen, then Regalia. If you do watch the series, I think you'll like it. It's quite good.
I've been watching you guys for a little while now, and I have been quietly waiting for you guys to react to this! It's an interesting series both in and out of the show. Glad to see you guys react and watch it!
Ah wow, thanks for doing this! I fell in love with Monty's animation and choreography style ever since I first saw Dead Fantasy and Haloid when he first released them, and for me personally, I still feel that no one else has ever come close to matching his style and artistry in fighting. His passing was a huge blow for me growing up, especially at such a young age and to such an unexpected medical reaction. He was truly unique and absolutely brimming with energy and passion and ideas, and to think about all that he could have brought into the world was gone with him was heartrending. But the people he inspired will continue on and he'll continue living on through them. P.S. I know you asked, but you might not appreciate the answer :v The reason they named their company Rooster Teeth is because one of their favourite and most used insults for one another back when they were younger was 'cock-bite' (featured quite heavily in the first few seasons of Red vs Blue, their original flagship series) and thus you get 'rooster' and 'teeth'.
Congratulations on reaching an other mile stone! And Thank You for sharing you reactions to different shows, games and other strange things you find not UA-cam. So you guys have a great day and STAY SAFE.
I think this is my first time watching this channel and I just cannot get over the vibes you two are giving off. They're so warm, happy, and sincere. I feel so welcome here lol.
🤗😊 Glad you got the vibes we were sending. Official welcome 🥳🥳🍾🥂 We got playlists for stuff we react to in order to make it easy to binge and see if you want to come back to check out more. And a games channel as well for reactions if you’re into that 🙂
Glad you guys saw the amazing work the late Monty Oum created. As for watching the series… well that’s up to you two. Personally I just go for the first three volumes since he passed away between the second and third. Some will say the whole show but honestly it doesn’t feel the same without him.
YEAHHHHHHH So, while both Ruby (Red) and Adam (guy from the Black trailer) have a rose petal motif, the main difference between the two is "Scatter" and "Wilt". Ruby's motif is more like scattering freshly picked rose petals, while Adam's is wilted petals falling from a dead plant.
Yeah, barring a couple things that feel a tad bit rushed or redundant, it's a really good series. I hope they react to it, even if it's just the first volume.
Omg yes! RWBY reactions! Yang (the yellow character) is also my favorite, along with Weiss (white character). I can't wait to see you two react to the actual series! There's 8 seasons, with a 9th on the way.
Congratulations on that many subscribers and may the community grow more out there. Also seeing RWBY “you can pronounce it as Ruby” from you both is amazing and you both are into a journey 😁 Here are names of each individual with fairytale based on them and that goes by trailer order: R- Ruby Rose “Red Riding Hood” W- Weiss Schnee “Ice Queen” B- Blake Belladonna “Beauty and the Beast” Y- Yang Xiao Long “Gold Locks and Three Bears” Each character is unique with a weapon that functions in two factors of guns and weaponry for combat. So have a fun journey watching more RWBY and you might see loads of seasons. As they are set as Volumes and soon a anime adaption is coming soon for the public. So I hope it be fun to watch during time on Anyday out there.
The show is amazing and definitely grows crazy. The misic is also one of the best parts. What really helps is that each piece of music also conveys information on the character its for.
I'm so glad you finally reacted to RWBY!!, it's one of my favourite shows, also all the characters in the trailers are based off fiary tales, Ruby is red riding hood, Weiss is Snow White, Blake is beauty and the beast, and Yang is goldilocks and the three bears. I really hope you guys decide to do more reactions to RWBY it's a really good series! Also the two women in Yangs trailer were the original designs for Ruby and Weiss which i thought was cool
First time I've been to your channel, but I always love seeing new people react to RWBY. Welcome to the fandom. Also, don't know if anyone else has said this yet, but the tombstone Ruby visits reads: Summer Rose Thus Kindly I Scatter.
Was so excited to see you react to this. RWBY is one of my favorite shows, and Monty Oum was a genius from start to finish. Fun Fact: all 4 of the girls (and most of the characters) are based of fairy tales or legends. With the 4 we have Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, and Goldilocks. I would love to see you react to that series. I know it's a lot, but you will not regret it. It is a fun, quirky, and emotional series.
I really, really really really didnt expected this to ever appear in this channel, I just clicked it so I havent seen it all yet, having said that, if you start to do reactions to the show, you're on for a damn good ride! Also, Ruby is my fav (as you may already see because of my profile pic)
This is so cool to see. I know you guys have already seen a bunch of comments talking about Monty Oum, so I'll skip the regular stuff in favor of an interesting bit of trivia. The same sense of rhythm that makes his fight scenes so spectacular also made him amazing at DDR. There's a video out there of him controlling both sides of a machine once during a convention.
I've seen a video where he played DDR while actually dancing on it. He was absolutely incredible. He used to make animated dance videos with the full body motion capture they had, too.
This series is awesome and vary diverse. My two favorite characters you guys have seen them yet. I hope you guys watch/react to the whole series. It’s an awesome emotional roller coaster.
Four Teenage girls form Team RWBY Ruby Rose Weiss Schnee/White Snow Blake Belladonna Yang Xiao Long (Which is my favorite) and train to fight crime and monsters known as the Grimm, while the world of Remnant remains on the brink of an all out war. The story takes place in the world of Remnant, which is filled with supernatural forces and shadowy creatures known as the Grimm.. (German fairytales are creepy and f*ck. I know) Idea Designer Animator. Monty Oum R.I.P Oum attracted attention within the gaming community after releasing an animated video in 2007, titled Haloid, where characters from the Halo and Metroid video game franchises fight against each other, which went viral. In October of the same year, he released a follow-up, Dead Fantasy. Oum began working for Rooster Teeth, serving as the lead animator for Red vs. Blue, and creating the original animated series RWBY. He died on February 1, 2015. His work was really important for indepandent animators and got lots of respect for that. Even Team Four Star thanked him in there own series. Dragon Ball Z Abrigded.
The music in these trailers, as well as 98% of all vocal music in the series to date, is done by the father/daughter team of Jeff and Casey Lee Williams. The song 'Red Like Roses, part 1' used in the Red trailer was recorded when Casey Lee was 13. She is now a graduate of the Berklee College of Music, has her own original music as well as albums with a band of classmates called 'O.K. Goodnight'. In later seasons of the show she took over from her father to write and arrange several of the songs rather than just doing the vocals. Their first music done for Rooster Teeth was for the series 'Red vs. Blue' when Casey Lee was 12.
Im so happy you guys checked Rwby out and im so glad you liked it so much 💗 My favorite for a while was Red trailer because of the chocking factor. After seeing how insane it was you expect that or similar from the rest. However after seeing basically everything within the series and rewatching them and the trailers i can say that White is my favorite trailer. Its so elegant yet sad, but also amazing and beautiful and i think from the trailers and some more of the songs withing the series, Mirror Mirror is one of my favorites. It has 3 parts to it and all talk about her and her struggles and how to overcome them
See that’s what I was wondering about White. Her trailer didn’t hook us but she seemed like a character that would maybe end up being my favorite once getting to know her 🙂😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 in a way yes. She and black have the biggest and most complicated backgrounds and also the best character developments, especially white. Try to listen to the song and later in the series you find out who Mirror Mirror is in her life
Yellow was my favorite when I started the trailers, and now that I'm caught up she still manages to be my favorite 😭 but I hope you guys are able to react to the rest of the series because I absolutely ADORE this show !!!
Welcome to RWBY! (its pronounced Ruby, you'll learn why) As someone who primarily watches RWBY reactions it's always amazing to see the very first steps into the show. Specifically the moment Red pulls out the Sniper Scythe. I really hope you continue to watch, the animation is dicey and due to the lack of people working on the story but it gets better. It's also best to watch Volumes 1-3 as one Season. (Though at the very end of each volume there is an after credit scene) In addition to that, going forward you should watch multiple Chapters per reaction video, until they start reaching a better length, as some chapters are only 3 min long. Either way, Welcome to the start of a long emotional journey.
RWBY is, without an Abso-fraking-lute doubt in my mind, one of my Most Absolute favorite series of All Time!!!!! These trailers got me So fraking Hyped AF for it, these ladies that form Team RWBY are my Most Abso-fraking-lute favorites
Saw this on my homepage and I immediately clicked. I'm so happy you guys got to react to the trailers! Your reactions took me back to when I reacted to all 4! Just being in awe of the characters, their fighting, some of the storytelling and their WEAPONS!! And they are based off of fairy tale characters! Ruby (Little Red Riding Hood) Weiss (Snow White) Blake (Beauty and the Beast) Yang (Goldilocks)
I'll have to agree to disagree with the people saying the show went downhill after the first few seasons. I've watched it through a couple of times and, imo, it keeps getting better and better. It definitely slows down in some places action-wise, but fight scenes aren't all that makes a show, and the character beats they continue to put through are super great. I cannot wait for the next season to come out for a lot of reasons I won't get into here - but it's worth seeing if you have the time! Watching the animation grow from the beginning to having fully realized and rendered settings/background models later is also a ton of fun. But 8 seasons is a commitment! Just feels like this show gets a lot of negativity, so I wanted to share as someone who has fully enjoyed it all the way through.
I agree. Besides, Miles and Kerry worked with Monty, for the framework of the show, so they know what they’re doing. They sadly don’t have the mind of Monty for his animation style, and what he really wanted to do
@@spnsman1 yeah Monty was one of a kind. Don’t know if you remember Dead Fantasy, but that was insane for the time and tech he had to work with and it pretty much still holds up today. It’s unrealistic for those salty “fans” to expect anyone to live up to Monty’s style and choreography, he was a legend and left us too soon unfortunately 😢
It's mostly people who watched it from the beginning as it aired who think it fell off, partially because of the parasocial relationship with the creator, and partially because of other reasons I can't get into without spoiling.
honestly I think the only thing that went downhill is the attitude of parts of the fandom. That's why i started to distance myself from the community. The people I couldn't stand the most were the ones saying that the way the series is going isn't the way Monty would've wanted it to go and then proceed to tell me how it would've been supposed to be. You might think the people closest to him would know the best, but no, apparently some dude who never met him knows all of his plans. I personally follow RWBY since the beginning having rewatched it multiple times and I get hooked everytime anew. I think the series is a great watch and am always excited to see for new seasons what crazy things happen this time.
Congratulations to 25K and soon after 30k ☺️☺️ I'm so glad this is reacted too, the story is alright but the fights are AMAZING to watch, simply spectular. It's definitely worth checking out ☺️
Congrats on 25K. Well deserved. I don't know much on the series, I just know that I'm going to get to it eventually because I've heard of nothing but great things. The animation has always been off to me, but the story is interesting on its own.
We heard the animation gets better as the show gets a bigger budget. Some say it falls off after seasons 2. Others season 4. And then it’s still going so obviously there are those the still love it 😊🤗🥳🍾🥂
You're mostly on point about the character's inspirations. Red is Little Red Riding Hood, White is Snow White, Yellow is Goldilocks. But Black is Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Fun fact: The girls that Yellow is fighting were concept designs for Red and White.
Yellow is everyone's favorite because of the clear sense of personality you get from her trailer alone making her the most appealing character due to her bombastic attributes accompanied by an image of black, a white effect, and a club mix of all the other trailers' songs before her own and the end reveal of red solidifying her as not only the glue of the group, but both figuratively and literally the group's big sister. Black is the most mysterious, but it's also the first to introduce dialogue meaning their interactions and how he talks to her is a likely indication of how despite them working well together aesthetically and strategically they cannot meet in the middle in terms of conversation making her departure all the more understandable. White was my favorite mainly because I'm a sucker for elegant aesthetics, but there wasn't much happening in terms of fighting despite her flashy effects because her story is actual told in her lyrics as she is the first and only character to sing her own song. Red is a perfect introduction as it sets up the motif that every character is a twisted take on a fairy tale not to mention her dynamic fighting style sets the stage for the craziness that is RWBY. All 4 characters represent the 4 core parts of the story of RWBY, the battle, the music, the lore, and the character. RWBY also pronounced as Ruby.
Well, I'll tell you that not everyone likes it because of its attractive appearance, in my case I like that it is a melee character (that is, that it shows fighting skills apart from having weapons that it uses long and short distance) the hair color clearly (the yellow color itself is my favorite) and clearly has a lot of personality and is also very cool.
Wow this is interesting, you hardly see people watching rwby nowadays but im glad someone is this show is actually really good I hope you continue it. Also congrats on the new milestone! 🎉🥂
Yay RWBY! I am so happy you saw this :D edit: I was just watching RWBY with my niece and nephews this afternoon. Its just funny to see some of my favorite people seeing this as well 😊
Play close attention to the music, it is in fact a huge part of the show. The girl singing in these is the daughter of the guy who wrote most of it, she was like 13 or 14 when she recorded these songs. Her mother sings with her at times as does her father and they have remained a part of the shows through the following seasons.
Hello! I've only just discovered you both, but from the reactions I have seen, I seriously think you'd enjoy watching RWBY. You're garunteed to fall in love with the characters, and the story is so immersive and always leaves you wanting more. I'd absolutely love to watch you both react to the series, and not only will I, but all the RWBY fans will flock to your channel to watch it as well. It's a wild ride for sure, and the fandom definitely has it's ups and downs (as do all) but I can say with confidence the RWBY experience is like none other. Not only that, the music is so amazing and helps tell the story from characte's points of view. Hope you decide to give it a chance, and either way, you've earned a sub from me
Thanks so much for the warm welcome to the RWBY community and welcome to our little community 🤗😊🥳 We do plan to continue with rwby just figuring out details on how best to do it 😀
All 4 of them have some kind of gun or gun-like feature in their weapons: Ruby (Red)'s scythe is also a sniper rifle Weiss (White)'s rapier acts as a revolver, although it isn't actually a gun Blake (Black)'s sword is also a pistol Yang (Yellow)'s gauntlets are also shotguns that have explosive rounds Even Adam (guy from Black trailer) has a shotgun as the sheath of his katana
A really great series to get into. My husband didn't really take interest in it until waaaaay later but he's since then watched the whole thing with me and he's been a fan ever since. Also congrats on the 25k!
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 not really. He didn't really show too much interest until a particular episode in volume 6. By then, the animation was significantly better and when I got home from work and started watching that particular episode, something about it [to avoid spoilers] really drew him in and he was absolutely determined to find out what happened next. So I went ahead and went through the entire series again from the first episode with him. It took a great while to get caught back up but now it's one of his favorite shows. And we're very particular about what animated shows we get into. Now we're just stuck in limbo waiting for Volume 9.
Heyo, I’m so glad you’re reacting to these trailers and I highly, HIGHLY recommend you guys watching the entirety of RWBY. Seriously, this series is absolutely amazing, though I’ve seen all of RWBY, I’ll tell you this, first three seasons has that weird animation 3D, but the next three seasons and last two seasons is where the animation gets better. I’ll edit more and tell you about the main 4 members of RWBY Ruby Rose is the leader of the team and the young sister to Yang, her weapon is called Crescent Rose, which is a combination of a rifle and a huge scythe. I see her as the Michelangelo of the group, since they sometimes joke about. And I’ve heard that Death Battle paired her against another character which we’re all waiting for the fight to happen, Maka from Soul Eater Weiss Schnee is another member of the RWBY team, she’s part of a million dollar company who manufactures Dust, no not dust you clean off, Elemental and Weaponry dust for each weapon the franchise has, though once you see the family, you’ll see that she doesn’t get along with her family except her older sister Winter. Her weapon is Myrtenaster, which is a pistol revolver and a rapier. She doesn’t glide on the ground or have skates, she protects Glyphs that she uses for her attacks. Also, she’s the Donatello of the group, who they all have resources, Dust and tech. Death Battle paired her with a combatant from the Persona franchise, Mitsuru Kirijo which is part of Season 6 Blake Belladonna is another member of Team RWBY, she’s been through a lot. First off, she’s a Faunus, specifically a Cat Faunus, a race of humans with animal features and they’re a subject to discrimination and it doesn’t get any easier. The guy paired up with her in this video you’re seeing is Adam Taurus, and he’s a horrible, horrible person and boyfriend to her, practically abusive. She’s always running away and sometimes a loner, but RWBY has softened her up to open up, and there’s a member of Team RWBY that fans were like “I ship it”. I paired her with Leonardo, no, it’s not with the leader aspect but because they sometimes go on solo adventures. Her weapon is Gambal Shroud, which is an amazing weapon I’ll tell you. Death Battle paired her with a character from a fantastic anime series, Mikasa Ackerman from Attack on Titan Yang Xiao Long is the last member of Team RWBY, and the older sister to Ruby. She’s a thrill seeker at heart, but sometimes she knows when she gets serious, and when something bad happens, her temper will fly. I paired her with Raphael, considering sometimes they have tempers, and there’s a member of Team RWBY that fans were like “I ship it”. Her weapon is called Ember Celica, which are gun gauntlets, complete with normal & explosive rounds. Death Battle has paired her with a character of a game series, Tifa Lockhart, from Final Fantasy (Even if this fight is controversial)
Thanks for giving us more info on the main characters in the show 😀 It’s one we may end up checking out as we heard Rooster Teeth doesn’t mind full reactions 🙂
Do a series of the full episodes! Roosterteeth welcomes reaction channels to watch their content as long as you wait atleast a week from an episodes release to post your reaction to your channel!
This video has been out for while, but I wanna comment! Yang started of being my favourite, cause she is just so funny and loveable, but Weiss is my favourite now because she gets a lot of character growth in the direction I like c: On another note: Just found you guys some days ago and binched a lot of your content already! Especially on the games channel xD
So at a heads up RWBY is pronounced the same as 'Ruby'. The show (and the first Red trailer) was made as a proof of concept by the fight choreographer Monty Oum (RIP). So the fights have always been centre stage, and the lore plays a lot of catch up in the early seasons. But the story is still very well done, and with the shows initial snowballing success the budget and animation levels up by leaps and bounds each season. A perfect blend of whimsy and fun wrapped in excillerating combat.
RWBY is something really special. Ups and downs notwithstanding, it's always been a labor of love with a passionate community. The animation starts as you saw, but improves every season, making extra big jumps in quality at Volumes (seasons) 4 and 6. The music is all bespoke for the show. Mainly a father-daughter team; Jeff and Casey Lee Williams, who are both *_incredibly_* talented musicians. The lyrics are often akin to a greek chorus, singing from a particular character's perspective or internal monologue. Musical pieces tied to particular characters retain the same elements across multiple songs. There is so much there that people who react to the show, often do separate react and analysis videos, _just_ for the music. The characters and monsters are mostly based on fairytale analogues, with nods in their name and/or character design to their origin. You noticed a couple already. Some references are more obvious than others, with the fanbase having fun teasing out the obscure ones over the years. It started as the brainchild of an animator by the name of Monty Oum. The Red trailer is entirely his work, and served as the pitch presentation to Rooster Teeth. He sadly passed away prior to the show's third volume but his friends and coworkers kept the show going in his memory. He was an amazing talent, and an all-around inspiring person. Known prior to most people for his dynamic fight choreography in Red vs Blue, and Dead Fantasy. His signature style is that everything is in motion, all the time. The choreography tells a story of each fighters thought process in the moment, and even sometimes their growth as characters. At its core, this is a character-driven story. It centers on teenagers, but it is not a kids story. The gore gets turned down a bit more than what you saw, while the lewdest thing is some handholding and the occasional kiss; but the show deals with mature topics like racism, alcoholism, depression, murder and abuse, while the world itself is incredibly dangerous just to live in. Overall, it's an emotional rollercoaster if one can empathize with the characters. If you want more to watch, there are various grades of spoilerific, and spoiler-free options. 100% Spoiler-Free: the SLVR trailers. This is a fan animation set in an alternate RWBY timeline with totally different characters. More of the crazy combo weapons and powers you've seen, but completely unconnected. 99% Spoiler-free: The "Volume 5 Weiss character short", and "Volume 5 Yang character short". (Yes, Volume 5, seriously). They show the same girls in the White, Red, and Yellow trailers, and canonically take place _before_ the fights you saw. The real highlight is that you get to see the show in the new animation engine, with more polished voice work, as a preview to see how gorgeous it looks today. 90% Spoiler-free: The "Volume 5 Blake character short". As above, it partially takes place before the events of the trailer, but partially in volume 5 itself. It also spoils a pretty big plot point from the end of Volume 1. Nothing critical, but it would mean you know something before the characters do. 50% Spoiler: The "RWBY Ice Queendom trailer". This is a Japanese anime studio redoing the first season of the Rooster Teeth show. I cannot overstate how weird it is that this "anime-inspired" *_American_* show got _such_ a big following in Japan that they are making an anime of it. Like any show trailer, it hits some random highlights. Spoilerific: The deathbattles. Yang vs Tifa, Weiss vs Mitsuru, Blake vs Mikasa. All good watches that go over the characters in depth. The Volume 1-8 openings. Pretty spoilery even lacking context. But such a good watch _and_ listen. I'll end with a note on the fans, or FNDM (fandom). It is an overwhelmingly positive, supportive, and inclusive community; always looking for new reactors to introduce to the series. The show has its own vocal detractors though, for various reasons. Some of which are about the quality of the show itself changing over time, and some about staffing or business decisions the company made. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I feel that the energy of the people complaining is a sign of how passionate they were as fans before they checked out. Their connection to the show being incredibly strong before the particular triggering event happened that they personally thought was too much. After all, "the opposite of love isn't hate, it's apathy". That speaks to how deeply it has touched some people's lives. I think it says a lot though when the detractors say *_"I_* don't like this anymore, so *_you_* shouldn't watch it". That is too much. I encourage you to judge the show for itself, it has a lot to offer both on its own, and through its various spin offs like RWBY Chibi. It is made with a lot of heart, and it shows. Thank you once again for the great content. Congratulations on your milestone. I look forward to seeing what's next. :)
Thanks so much for the info on the show and other stuff to check out that won’t be spoilers (props on giving percentages 🙂) And we agree that apathy and just not caring is the worst and the more you care the more critical you can be sometimes 🤗 (proverbial “you”)
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 Thanks :) I'm going to see if I can move some stuff around and join you on Patreon. If you have patrons asking for RWBY content, I think that's the place I want to hang out. If the stuff you've seen has piqued your interest, and you do choose to take up the show. Plenty of people can give you guidance on watch order (which episodes are two parters, and where to fit in the bonus episodes), how to deal with RoosterTeeth as a content creator, and how much of a lead time to give yourself to avoid spoiling the big plot points. If you wanted to reach out to BlindWave, The Normies, MurderOfBirds, or Puns of Damage; they've all done the series, loved it, and can give you the inside scoop. Keep on being awesome. :)
Y'alls reaction is honestly how me and some people i know reacted to seeing the character trailers for RWBY, wish we could go back to those days when RWBY came out
For Reference Ruby is just turned 15 at the time of the trailers and season 1-3 the rest of the younger characters are 17-18. Most people miss it but Beacon is a University level institution not a high school
Red: Ruby Rose is based off Little Red Riding Hood. White: Weiss Schnee is based off Snow White. Black: Blake Belladonna and Adam Taurus (but mainly Blake) are based off Beauty And The Beast. And Yellow: Yang Xiao Lang, Ruby Rose's older half sister, is is based off Goldilocks. Oh, and the guy nicknamed "Junior" (who got his balls crushed) his real name translates in Chinese meaning "Black Bear". Hence meaning he's based off the small or Baby Bear from Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
Good memories from the past! :D I haven't seen the Trailers in such a long time so it was fun that you react to them! Maybe another blast from the past next: Madness Combat by Krinkels? :D
![[The Original Overwatch?] Meet the Team Reactions](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/X9M3izc1BgI/mqdefault.jpg)
Just a quick little fun fact: Ruby and Yang both forged their own weapons while in school, so they built them to have that extreme recoil that they use to move them around the battlefield. And like 99% of weapons you see in the show has some form of firearm/ranged ability.
To put it simply:
It's also a gun.
its also a gun :D
Accurate
If in doubt of what a weapon does, its probably also a gun 90% of the time
If it isn't also a gun it probably unfolds into an even bigger weapon or combines with another weapon to turn into another weapon.
I can't believe I'm still watching RWBY trailer reactions nearly a decade later. Actually I can, because they trailers are just so freaking cool.
They are something special for sure 🤩
Absolutely, I always love revisiting these trailers and seeing how much RWBY has changed, but these trailers will always be amazing!
Yeah... Trust me I can't believe as well. Although I dropped the Series after Vol 6... But these old Trailers and the Early Volumes till S6 still my favourite.
and the lyrics actualy have meaning which is so cool
It was Mounty doing what he did best. A godlike choreographer showing all the moves.
May he rest in peace.
one thing you should know about RWBY:
“It’s Also A Gun.”
almost every weapon is also a gun.
There’s a cane that is also a rifle, there’s an axe that’s also a blunderbuss, Weiss’ Rapier is also a revolver, etc.
Don't forget the staff that is also a pair of gunchucks
@@jefferyoneill1 oh yeah the gunchucks
We can get behind that mentality 😝
It’s also a gun
Later, when a character whipped out a gun, my first thought was if that gun was also a gun.
Truthfully, it would be quicker to name off the weapons that aren't also a gun.
The hint on Blake splitting away and leaving is her asking "What about the crew members?", and Adam callously responding "What about them?".
I find it despairing how many reactors blinkered on that. at the very least one should be able to assume that that was the Last Straw in a continuing chain of bad signs.
@@hansolav5924 Context is everything.
The additions by Rooster Teeth to the "remastered" trailers doesn't help her either. The original Oum trailer had A LOT less talking, as in only two phrases being spoken (the "what about the crew" exchange, and the single "goodbye"). That made the words stay in your brain until the end
@@hansolav5924 So, she's known for a while that he's an evil person and only now just decided to break off from him?
They should've gathered that him not caring about the passengers was the reason why she left, though.
@@Adanu191 I blame the short attention-span programmed into most americans by their media. oh, and their poor school system.I recall no issues understanding her reasoning when first I saw it.
Ok so a few things:
The Red Trailer was made entirely by one dude, the creator of this series, Monty Oum as a proof of concept. There’s a couple of canon lore bits (the music and the grave) but it was mainly to show the concept off. The rest of the trailers have more canon lore to them so and are pretty awesome.
RWBY is pronounced like Ruby.
Monty Oum sadly passed away in February five years ago due to an allergic reaction after the second volume of this show so now it’s headed up by his co-writers Miles and Kerry and the rest of CRWBY. Monty also did all the fight scenes while he was still around, and he was a legend at it. RIP Monty.
Each character is based off a fairytale, legend, story of some sort and let us know if you’re okay with us telling you which ones are which cuz I promise a lot of us are gonna wanna tell you.
The animation is very limited in the first couple seasons because RT had the budget of a shoestring but the production quality does improve as it goes on, they were also animating in Poser which is... limited. Has a certain charm to it tho.
Speaking of that production the first volume’s budget was, again, shoestring. So episodes were split into two parters that were barely five minutes each. I’d recommend reacting to the first volume like so after the trailers: Ep 1, 2+3, 4+5, 6+7, 8, 9+10, 11+12, 13+14, 15, and 16. Just so you have enough material for an actual reaction vid. Thankfully this is only a problem for V1.
Blake’s weapon is described as a ballistic variant chain scythe. It’s basically a katana that doubles as a gun that she can swing around on a ribbon and the sheath is also a cleaver.
Yang is my favorite.
Thanks so much for all this info on the show. And some people already got excited to tell us who each character is based off of 😜 Appreciate the recommendation on how to watch the show for the first season should we decided to check it out 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 PLEASE DO!!!
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 I would love if you did reactions to it. The first season is short, about the length of a normal movie. But the music is amazing

Secondly, I'm glad you loved the trailers for RWBY & had so many questions!! I got hooked on the series the same way myself. Thanks to my Oldest Step-grandson!! He knew I love anime and good storytelling. RWBY is both and more.... LOL
So, I do hope you two will take in the first season. The RWBYverse is a lot to take in, but it is worth it!! I'll check in on your journey thru it!! 😎👍🌹👏😂
P.S. - (JUST ABOUT) Everything is also a GUN!! LMAO
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 You guys should really watch the series ...it's a great show and amazing storyline for each of these characters and more
Ruby :red riding hood
Wiess:snow white
Blake: beauty that is a beast
Yang: Goldie locks
Blake is based on Belle from Beauty and the Beast
blake is the beauty , adam is the beast
Blake is both beauty and beast.
😎👍😀
@@passieverhoef3166 Blake's both Adam is the Cursed Rose
I love how Weiss' character developed over the series, but the impression of her character that her trailer gives to how she acts when she's introduced in the show was such polar opposites xD
That's probably why the anime adaptation is focused on her as she does go through the most character development out of the 4 of them.
Weiss’ development was great. Problem is, it was done at the expense of the titular character, who ended up getting very little
In hindsight, it's probably because the White Trailer takes place while she is at home under her father's control vs when she starts attending Beacon and finally has more freedom but also has to deal with people her age who aren't part of the Atlas elite.
@@jordinagel1184 Nah, there were way more characters that got development at the expense of Ruby, and Weiss isn't one of them. Weiss is one of the four main characters, she should have all the development she has. There are however other characters that did get development at the expense of Ruby, who aren't even main characters, so the time spent developing them isn't even warranted.
There are plenty of characters that you could take scenes away from to give Ruby more, and Weiss is at the very bottom of that list. I wouldn't even put her on the list at all, but if she must go on it, then it's the bottom.
@@ItsXetren Well, Weiss still got way more development than any of the four main characters (save perhaps Blake) in the first three seasons, making pretty good progress from the b*tchy princess she was originally. I get that she needs development too, and what she got was good, but really Ruby should’ve come before, or very shortly after. Actually, more than Weiss, I think Jaune is the one who was hogging way too much screen time, considering he’s not even part of the main quartet (and is voiced by one of the writers of the show… Hmm…)
"What? Why? You two are awesome together!"
Me who's seen the show: 👀
Hahaha I think we all said that the first time, but not always that they know how to move well means that they think and have the same interests
Oh nice. Intrigue 😁
For real! 😂😂
Rest in peace mounty oum. He did such badass animations, even before Rooster Teeth was built. If you love badass fight scenes, he also made "dead fantasy" which is a fan animation of final fantasy vs dead or alive characters
Yup plan to check that one out but want to see a bit more of each series 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 Should definitely check out his other project from around the same time called Haloid.
Congrats on 25k! Your patrons have excellent taste for suggesting RWBY, it's wild ride, really intelligent world building and character development. Plus it has a huge reaction fanbase that will flock to your channel! Please continue!
😎🤟🥳🥳🍾🥂
I mean, the action’s pretty good (REALLY good in the first few seasons), but… Intelligent world building and character development are NOT things I’d associate with the show. Passion, yes, but even that fizzled out after Monty’s passing.
@@jordinagel1184Personally I think the character development is a mixed bag. Some characters have really good development ("Ice Queen" and "Remnant's Best Leg Breaker") but others have very little development (a certain drunk)
Ruby is probably my favorite but Weiss's character development throughout the series ties her for first. In terms of just fighting styles it would probably be Ruby, Blake, Yang, and then Weiss.
😎🤟 Ruby for the win 🥇
I've personally never seen ruby but I hear the choreography when it comes to combat is absolutely crazy, and if you were ever to react to the series I'm pretty sure the creators are completely fine with full/edited reactions as long as you don't react to the newest episodes when they come out
Yes, RoosterTeeth has historically been fine with reactors posting full-episode reactions on UA-cam. If a reaction video gets taken down, it is usually UA-cam's automatic copyright bots doing it, and not RoosterTeeth themselves. So a quick email sees things restored in under a couple days.
Some reactors take this into account, and post their videos privately first so that any hiccups can be dealt with behind the scenes without messing up a release schedule.
That seems to be the case with all of their content. Older stuff is fine to react to but newer content they obviously want people to see first on their channel. Makes total sense and always appreciative of when companies are reaction friendly 😊😀
Monty Oum the real creator RWBY already made a few videos back then. Try Dead Fantasy or Halo vs Metroid...
(At 13:24)
Adam: Perfect! Move up to the next cart. _I'll_ set the charges.
Blake: What about the crew members?
Adam: What about them? (In a "Doesn't give a shit" tone)
It’s crazy to think that I was a child when RWBY came out and now I’m an adult that pays taxes and all of the other things that comes with being an adult and I’m still watching it lol. This is genuinely one of my favorite things that I’ve ever watched. You really grow so attached to the characters! There’s a lot of badass women in this show and I highly recommend watching this if y’all have the time! And, Yang (Yellow) is and will always be best girl for me lol. Congrats on the milestone!!! 🙌🏾
Thanks so much! And glad to hear Yang continues to be amazing in the show and it wasn’t just in the trailer 😎🤟
I'm so glad you guys checked out the RWBY trailers and I hope you continue with this show, It's amazing. The characters, world building and storytelling in this show are phenomenal so It's 100% worth a watch.
If you ever think about doing a reaction to this series then just know that:
A) Rooster Teeth are great with copyright as they love people reacting to their stuff, just send them an email to sort it out.
B) RWBY fans usually flock to people reacting to the show as we love to see them 😁. You'll likely get a lot of people to your channel with even this video.
That's all for that. This was a great video, love you guys!
Thanks so much for the encouragement on checking out the show and the love sent our way 🥰😊🤗
1:45 …let’s just say the name origin for Rooster Teeth involves the alternate name for a rooster and bite…a joke one of the founders made the the others hated for sticking lol
Some fun trivia: the first trailer, “Red”, Monty Oum did by himself while he was working on other shows (he was the lead animator for Rooster Teeth’s biggest show at the time, Red vs Blue), which he did in less than three weeks-he was a huge multitasker, even whipping up costumes during production crunch times.
And one the singers in these trailers was the daughter of the lead composer for the series, Casey Lee Williams, who was only 14 at the time when she was hitting those high notes in the “White” trailer
Damn he did that trailer in less than 3 weeks by himself 😯🤯
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 he was a well-known work-alcohic.
@@crowtrobot17 I imagine when Death showed up for him, he unknowingly quoted Goge Vandire...

Omg! I just dropped everything as soon as I saw this on my timeline!! I'm a huge RWBY fan, I would absolutely love to see you react to the full series.
the main characters are
Ruby Rose
Weiss Schnee
Blake Belladonna
Yang Xiao long
My favorite character is definitely Yang,
a quick description of the series. The world that RWBY takes place in is called "Remnant". Many of the characters have a special ability called a "Semblance", every character's Semblance is unique to them. The 4 main characters go to a school called Beacon, where they train and use their powers to fight the black and white monsters that are called Grimm. Also, almost every character's weapon is also a gun. I love this show because it has a lot of amazing action scenes and incredible storylines, there's a lot of lore and backstory about the universe that RWBY exists in as well.
The only exception to everyone having unique semblances is Weiss, her mother and older sister have the same semblance
Thanks for giving us a little more info on the show and for taking the time to check out the reaction when you saw it pop up 😊🥳🥳🍾🥂
So am I who’s your favorite mines Blake
@@EvanRichardson2002 Yang is my most favorite, Blake is my second favorite!
@@dragonforce627 if I may ask favorite villain mine’s Roman and neo
YEEEEEEESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh heck yes! I recommended this one before and am super hyped that you two decided to give it a shot. Love this series. And honestly, the FNDM will flock to your channel in droves if you start reacting to this one. Our quest for more people to react to this show is eternal and insatiable.
This series is very welcoming to reactors so if you were interested, you definitely could react to the series as a whole and not have to worry about strikes on your channel. Rooster Teeth will clear any UA-cam strike issues from the UA-cam bots on the videos if you contact them, I think usually within like 24 or 48 hours. But Rooster Teeth encourages reactions to this show.
Also, the series has an AMAZING soundtrack, mostly all sung by one person named Casey Lee Williams (who was I think 12 or so at the time of these trailers). The songs are full of worldbuilding so most people will tell you to listen to them after each volume to get more info (and just to have an awesome time because again, songs are bangers).
To answer confusion about why Blake left Adam at the end of her trailer at a surface level, when he said he would set the charges she asked "what about the crew members" he said "what about them?" Can't say more without spoilers for the show.
My favorite trailer was White as I love her design and I'm a fan of 1v1 battle more than 1 vs army style fights and then in the show, my favorite of the 4 girls was Ruby (Red) for a while, but at the point of the show now, my favorite is solidly Weiss (white). My favorite trailer to watch people react to is definitely Red though. The moment of that first shot always gets some amazing reactions out of people.
I hope you two continue with this series sometime. From what I've seen of your content, I'm confident you two will enjoy it.
Appreciate all the info on the show and community for the show. 😀 It surprised us and definitely was not what we thought it would be going into it 🤩
I am so glad yaw are reacting to this, this is one of my favorite series right now, did yaw know that when this show first started out by Monty Oum the creator R.I.P. it was only in about 5-to-10-minute segments, but the show took off into popularity and it became a series, also the song Red Like Roses parts 1&2 is an extremely emotional and dark song if you take the time to listen to the lyrics, and I love it.
We did not know that about the show. But heard it’s still going on to its 9th season 😯
RWBY!! YUS! This is a series I'm seriously hoping you guys react to as it is a very interesting story and you'll fall in love with all the characters involved. With RWBY (pronounced Ruby) we've got Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang as our four main heroines. I hope you guys do check this out cause it won't disappoint.
It’s a possibility for a show for us to react to but not sure thing yet 😇

@@V4Veridian yea cuz the three first volumes are basically episodes of 15min at most
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 It will be one of one of the best decisions you've made, trust us!
Hope you watch more! Love seeing people react to RWBY. Just a warning, RWBY fans can be a bit careless with their comments, often over explaining things if the reactors miss or forget something, so you might have to worry about spoilers a little bit.
Appreciate the warning 🙂😊
I see you found one of my favorite shows that is RWBY. Well you two better strap in because it's about to get crazier from here on.

"with the brutality of it all, it's still so pretty"
That's Monty Oum for you. Insanely beautiful talent and I wish he wasn't taken away from us so soon.
😢
Congrats on the milestone. You've gathered my sub because of RWBY and I will check out your other reactions. The one thing to keep in the back of your mind is that (for the most part) the RWBY community is present and helpful and that Rooster Teeth (unlike other studios) really seems to love their reactors. They have a few rules that they expect you to follow but, them allowing complete reactions is (so I've heard) seldom allowed. I'm looking forward to watching more RWBY with you guys, and again, congrats.
Thanks for the congrats 🍾 And welcome to the channel. Appreciate the info on the series and it being reaction friendly 😀
Love to see you embark on this fun ride. Don't get caught up in the shortcomings or the divisive negative commenters, don't let people give you spoilers (part of the fun is the discovery and figuring stuff out on your own), pay attention to the music (spectacular music BTW) and take a number of chapters at a time - they're pretty short. Also check out World of Remnant midway Volume 2 for world building exposition. This is my favorite animated series.
We’ve been told to be careful of spoilers in comments 😅
congrats on 25k! definitely watch through the show! its a wild ride sometimes! but if youre staying on the shorter side of things, a fan animator by the name of Mark has his own RWBY fan animations that have been getting progressively better and better, and practically are on the level of the show
Thanks for the channel rec 🙂
Only bit I'll add that I didn't set elsewhere, is that the music is all custom written to the theme and story of the show. So every song has layers of meaning, and they've done it for eight seasons and counting.
Most of the characters are voiced by employees at Rooster Teeth, as Monty asked them to be the characters. Even added they personality to them, such as Yang telling terrible puns all of the time
That’s fun that they kept it in house for voice acting 🙂🥳
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 it wasn't a large company yet, so the story on how RWBY came to be is as wonderful as the show itself. Monty Oum was a wonderful person and amazing creator
I’m so glad you two finally decided to take a look at RWBY! Hopefully you two decide to watch the show in its entirety!
Possibly 😇😊
I think that the Red trailer is my favorite but I do love how Yellow has the songs from the previous ones before going into Yellow's or Yang's song
We missed that. Nice touch 😀
The why of Blake leaving is right there in the Black trailer itself. First the opening quote. Blake was done with being burdened by Adam's violence, such as being willing to murder the train's crew just to cover up a theft. So she left to 'find her own liberation.'.
Oh, this is a treat. Glad you guys liked the trailers!
I recommend checking out the trailers by Mark on UA-cam. They're fan-made and phenomenal!
If you do check those out, they go in the order of: Charcoal, Silver, Viridian, Linen, then Regalia.
If you do watch the series, I think you'll like it. It's quite good.
Thanks for recommending more stuff to check out for this show besides the show itself 🙂🤗
I've been watching you guys for a little while now, and I have been quietly waiting for you guys to react to this! It's an interesting series both in and out of the show. Glad to see you guys react and watch it!
It took us by surprise how much we enjoyed it 🙂
Ah wow, thanks for doing this! I fell in love with Monty's animation and choreography style ever since I first saw Dead Fantasy and Haloid when he first released them, and for me personally, I still feel that no one else has ever come close to matching his style and artistry in fighting. His passing was a huge blow for me growing up, especially at such a young age and to such an unexpected medical reaction. He was truly unique and absolutely brimming with energy and passion and ideas, and to think about all that he could have brought into the world was gone with him was heartrending. But the people he inspired will continue on and he'll continue living on through them.
P.S. I know you asked, but you might not appreciate the answer :v The reason they named their company Rooster Teeth is because one of their favourite and most used insults for one another back when they were younger was 'cock-bite' (featured quite heavily in the first few seasons of Red vs Blue, their original flagship series) and thus you get 'rooster' and 'teeth'.
Haha, appreciate you answering our question about RoosterTeeth all the same 🤗
Congratulations on reaching an other mile stone! And Thank You for sharing you reactions to different shows, games and other strange things you find not UA-cam. So you guys have a great day and STAY SAFE.
🥳🥳🤗😀
(At 12:07) music and lyrics are all written and sung by both Jeff Williams and his daughter Casey Lee Williams
☺️😀
Great reaction guys, I hope you guys continue with the series. RWBY fans are pretty dedicated to watching reactors.
Looks like a fun show. Haven’t committed yet but leaning towards a full reaction 🤔😇
Always a fun set of trailers and series to see reactions to. Monty poured his heart into this concept and brought it to life.
I think this is my first time watching this channel and I just cannot get over the vibes you two are giving off. They're so warm, happy, and sincere. I feel so welcome here lol.
🤗😊 Glad you got the vibes we were sending. Official welcome 🥳🥳🍾🥂 We got playlists for stuff we react to in order to make it easy to binge and see if you want to come back to check out more. And a games channel as well for reactions if you’re into that 🙂
Glad you guys saw the amazing work the late Monty Oum created. As for watching the series… well that’s up to you two. Personally I just go for the first three volumes since he passed away between the second and third. Some will say the whole show but honestly it doesn’t feel the same without him.
YEAHHHHHHH
So, while both Ruby (Red) and Adam (guy from the Black trailer) have a rose petal motif, the main difference between the two is "Scatter" and "Wilt". Ruby's motif is more like scattering freshly picked rose petals, while Adam's is wilted petals falling from a dead plant.
😎👍🙂
the red trailer gives the best demonstration I've yet seen of the concept 'whirlwind of death'. :)
She is brutal in that trailer; a veritable walking blender.
😎🤟
damn im so glad you've gotten onto rwby its such a good series
Well it was good for awhile
@@ShadowRose759 nah it’s still good people are just butt hurt that the story isn’t going the way they want 😌
Butt hurt....right
Yeah, barring a couple things that feel a tad bit rushed or redundant, it's a really good series. I hope they react to it, even if it's just the first volume.
Omg yes! RWBY reactions! Yang (the yellow character) is also my favorite, along with Weiss (white character). I can't wait to see you two react to the actual series! There's 8 seasons, with a 9th on the way.
Also the Japanese anime based on the character/world starting soon RWBY : Ice Qeendom
@@sqxbarto9229 That is true. Can't wait for that to start
Favorite characters? I have but one word: Boop.
@@willowisp90 The first 3 episodes will air on UA-cam this Friday (24th) or weekend (not sure about the Japanese/outside airtimes)!
Lots of seasons. 😯😀
Congratulations on that many subscribers and may the community grow more out there. Also seeing RWBY “you can pronounce it as Ruby” from you both is amazing and you both are into a journey 😁
Here are names of each individual with fairytale based on them and that goes by trailer order:
R- Ruby Rose “Red Riding Hood”
W- Weiss Schnee “Ice Queen”
B- Blake Belladonna “Beauty and the Beast”
Y- Yang Xiao Long “Gold Locks and Three Bears”
Each character is unique with a weapon that functions in two factors of guns and weaponry for combat. So have a fun journey watching more RWBY and you might see loads of seasons. As they are set as Volumes and soon a anime adaption is coming soon for the public. So I hope it be fun to watch during time on Anyday out there.
Thanks, GR! 🥳🥳🍾🥂
No problem 😉 I hope you both keep being amazing UA-camr and let the community keep growing
The show is amazing and definitely grows crazy. The misic is also one of the best parts. What really helps is that each piece of music also conveys information on the character its for.
😎🤟😀
I'm so glad you finally reacted to RWBY!!, it's one of my favourite shows, also all the characters in the trailers are based off fiary tales, Ruby is red riding hood, Weiss is Snow White, Blake is beauty and the beast, and Yang is goldilocks and the three bears. I really hope you guys decide to do more reactions to RWBY it's a really good series! Also the two women in Yangs trailer were the original designs for Ruby and Weiss which i thought was cool
Nice fun fact about the two girls in Yangs trailer 😀
I love this series!! And you’re reaction! I really hope you continue to watch the series 💜
Glad you enjoyed it! We haven’t committed yet to fill series but definitely interested after watching these trailers 😀
First time I've been to your channel, but I always love seeing new people react to RWBY. Welcome to the fandom. Also, don't know if anyone else has said this yet, but the tombstone Ruby visits reads: Summer Rose Thus Kindly I Scatter.
No one had said wha the tombstone said so thanks for pointing that out. And welcome to the channel 🥳🥳😀🤗
Was so excited to see you react to this. RWBY is one of my favorite shows, and Monty Oum was a genius from start to finish.
Fun Fact: all 4 of the girls (and most of the characters) are based of fairy tales or legends. With the 4 we have Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, and Goldilocks.
I would love to see you react to that series. I know it's a lot, but you will not regret it. It is a fun, quirky, and emotional series.
😎🤟 it’s a lot to take on but trailers have us invested 🙂
One correction, Weiss is based off of Snow White, not Cinderella, that would be Cinder lol
Weiss's name means white snow in German
I really, really really really didnt expected this to ever appear in this channel, I just clicked it so I havent seen it all yet, having said that, if you start to do reactions to the show, you're on for a damn good ride!
Also, Ruby is my fav (as you may already see because of my profile pic)
Expect the unexpected 🤗🥳 We haven’t committed yet to full series but it’s a good possibility 😇
This is so cool to see. I know you guys have already seen a bunch of comments talking about Monty Oum, so I'll skip the regular stuff in favor of an interesting bit of trivia. The same sense of rhythm that makes his fight scenes so spectacular also made him amazing at DDR. There's a video out there of him controlling both sides of a machine once during a convention.
😯
I've seen a video where he played DDR while actually dancing on it. He was absolutely incredible. He used to make animated dance videos with the full body motion capture they had, too.
This series is awesome and vary diverse. My two favorite characters you guys have seen them yet. I hope you guys watch/react to the whole series. It’s an awesome emotional roller coaster.
We may end up checking it out 😇🙂
Four Teenage girls form Team RWBY
Ruby Rose
Weiss Schnee/White Snow
Blake Belladonna
Yang Xiao Long (Which is my favorite)
and train to fight crime and monsters known as the Grimm, while the world of Remnant remains on the brink of an all out war. The story takes place in the world of Remnant, which is filled with supernatural forces and shadowy creatures known as the Grimm.. (German fairytales are creepy and f*ck. I know)
Idea Designer Animator. Monty Oum R.I.P
Oum attracted attention within the gaming community after releasing an animated video in 2007, titled Haloid, where characters from the Halo and Metroid video game franchises fight against each other, which went viral. In October of the same year, he released a follow-up, Dead Fantasy. Oum began working for Rooster Teeth, serving as the lead animator for Red vs. Blue, and creating the original animated series RWBY.
He died on February 1, 2015. His work was really important for indepandent animators and got lots of respect for that. Even Team Four Star thanked him in there own series. Dragon Ball Z Abrigded.
It's Blake not Black Belladonna lol
@@121WoWfreak Really? Hm. Mine's better.
Thanks for giving us a quick bio on the creator of the show. Dead Fantasy is something on our list for quite a bit now
Congrats!! Much deserved and well earned you two :)
Thanks! 🥳🥳🍾🥂
The music in these trailers, as well as 98% of all vocal music in the series to date, is done by the father/daughter team of Jeff and Casey Lee Williams. The song 'Red Like Roses, part 1' used in the Red trailer was recorded when Casey Lee was 13. She is now a graduate of the Berklee College of Music, has her own original music as well as albums with a band of classmates called 'O.K. Goodnight'. In later seasons of the show she took over from her father to write and arrange several of the songs rather than just doing the vocals.
Their first music done for Rooster Teeth was for the series 'Red vs. Blue' when Casey Lee was 12.
Very impressive 😯😀
Im so happy you guys checked Rwby out and im so glad you liked it so much 💗
My favorite for a while was Red trailer because of the chocking factor. After seeing how insane it was you expect that or similar from the rest. However after seeing basically everything within the series and rewatching them and the trailers i can say that White is my favorite trailer. Its so elegant yet sad, but also amazing and beautiful and i think from the trailers and some more of the songs withing the series, Mirror Mirror is one of my favorites. It has 3 parts to it and all talk about her and her struggles and how to overcome them
See that’s what I was wondering about White. Her trailer didn’t hook us but she seemed like a character that would maybe end up being my favorite once getting to know her 🙂😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 in a way yes. She and black have the biggest and most complicated backgrounds and also the best character developments, especially white. Try to listen to the song and later in the series you find out who Mirror Mirror is in her life
I hope to see you two react to the entire series. Its so good imo.
Trailers have us interested. Not sure if and when we will do full series 😅
RWBY?! Oh, how you two spoil us.
Oh and “yellow” (whose name is Yang as said by “red”) def has my favorite trailer out of them all.
Her trailer was best for last for sure 😀🤩
Yellow was my favorite when I started the trailers, and now that I'm caught up she still manages to be my favorite 😭 but I hope you guys are able to react to the rest of the series because I absolutely ADORE this show !!!
Glad yellow maintains her badass #1 status throughout 😎🤟
Oh my god thank you for reacting to the trailers it gives me so much nostalgia!! I really hope you guys can react to the rest of the series!!
☺️ It’s a show we plan to check out more or in some fashion 🙂
The moment they said ADAM and BLAKE are a pretty good team, i started laughing🤣🤣if you know you know
Welcome to RWBY! (its pronounced Ruby, you'll learn why) As someone who primarily watches RWBY reactions it's always amazing to see the very first steps into the show. Specifically the moment Red pulls out the Sniper Scythe. I really hope you continue to watch, the animation is dicey and due to the lack of people working on the story but it gets better. It's also best to watch Volumes 1-3 as one Season. (Though at the very end of each volume there is an after credit scene) In addition to that, going forward you should watch multiple Chapters per reaction video, until they start reaching a better length, as some chapters are only 3 min long. Either way, Welcome to the start of a long emotional journey.
Thanks so much for the warm welcome and info on the series 🙂😀🤗
RWBY is, without an Abso-fraking-lute doubt in my mind, one of my Most Absolute favorite series of All Time!!!!!
These trailers got me So fraking Hyped AF for it, these ladies that form Team RWBY are my Most Abso-fraking-lute favorites
😎🤟🤩
Saw this on my homepage and I immediately clicked. I'm so happy you guys got to react to the trailers! Your reactions took me back to when I reacted to all 4! Just being in awe of the characters, their fighting, some of the storytelling and their WEAPONS!!
And they are based off of fairy tale characters!
Ruby (Little Red Riding Hood)
Weiss (Snow White)
Blake (Beauty and the Beast)
Yang (Goldilocks)
Trailers were very well done and took us by surprise for sure! We are glad we finally checked these out 😀
I'll have to agree to disagree with the people saying the show went downhill after the first few seasons. I've watched it through a couple of times and, imo, it keeps getting better and better. It definitely slows down in some places action-wise, but fight scenes aren't all that makes a show, and the character beats they continue to put through are super great. I cannot wait for the next season to come out for a lot of reasons I won't get into here - but it's worth seeing if you have the time! Watching the animation grow from the beginning to having fully realized and rendered settings/background models later is also a ton of fun.
But 8 seasons is a commitment! Just feels like this show gets a lot of negativity, so I wanted to share as someone who has fully enjoyed it all the way through.
I agree. Besides, Miles and Kerry worked with Monty, for the framework of the show, so they know what they’re doing. They sadly don’t have the mind of Monty for his animation style, and what he really wanted to do
@@spnsman1 yeah Monty was one of a kind. Don’t know if you remember Dead Fantasy, but that was insane for the time and tech he had to work with and it pretty much still holds up today. It’s unrealistic for those salty “fans” to expect anyone to live up to Monty’s style and choreography, he was a legend and left us too soon unfortunately 😢
It's mostly people who watched it from the beginning as it aired who think it fell off, partially because of the parasocial relationship with the creator, and partially because of other reasons I can't get into without spoiling.
It's definitely much better now than it was at the beginning though
honestly I think the only thing that went downhill is the attitude of parts of the fandom. That's why i started to distance myself from the community. The people I couldn't stand the most were the ones saying that the way the series is going isn't the way Monty would've wanted it to go and then proceed to tell me how it would've been supposed to be.
You might think the people closest to him would know the best, but no, apparently some dude who never met him knows all of his plans.
I personally follow RWBY since the beginning having rewatched it multiple times and I get hooked everytime anew. I think the series is a great watch and am always excited to see for new seasons what crazy things happen this time.
16:21 He's ready to kiss someone he had previously admitted was too young to be in that club.
😳 good point. Although too young at 21 and over club is different than too young at 18 and over club. Either way it’s super creepy 😒
Ah, I miss classic RWBY so much.
They've just taken a year off, it's not like the show got cancelled lol.
@@FixTheWi-Fi I mean like the old Monty era. These trailers and volumes 1-3. The show was just pure passion and enjoyment back then.
me too, todays rwby is just not the same
Congratulations to 25K and soon after 30k ☺️☺️
I'm so glad this is reacted too, the story is alright but the fights are AMAZING to watch, simply spectular. It's definitely worth checking out ☺️
Thanks for the congrats and giving us your thoughts on the show 🥳🥳🍾🥂
Wow, 8-9 years ago. Even though I'm only 18, that makes me feel super old😂
😜
Congrats on 25K. Well deserved. I don't know much on the series, I just know that I'm going to get to it eventually because I've heard of nothing but great things. The animation has always been off to me, but the story is interesting on its own.
We heard the animation gets better as the show gets a bigger budget. Some say it falls off after seasons 2. Others season 4. And then it’s still going so obviously there are those the still love it 😊🤗🥳🍾🥂
You guys should really react to the series, it's a great series and you'll definitely love the character development
😎👍😀
You're mostly on point about the character's inspirations. Red is Little Red Riding Hood, White is Snow White, Yellow is Goldilocks. But Black is Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Fun fact: The girls that Yellow is fighting were concept designs for Red and White.
Cool fun fact 😀
Yellow is everyone's favorite because of the clear sense of personality you get from her trailer alone making her the most appealing character due to her bombastic attributes accompanied by an image of black, a white effect, and a club mix of all the other trailers' songs before her own and the end reveal of red solidifying her as not only the glue of the group, but both figuratively and literally the group's big sister.
Black is the most mysterious, but it's also the first to introduce dialogue meaning their interactions and how he talks to her is a likely indication of how despite them working well together aesthetically and strategically they cannot meet in the middle in terms of conversation making her departure all the more understandable.
White was my favorite mainly because I'm a sucker for elegant aesthetics, but there wasn't much happening in terms of fighting despite her flashy effects because her story is actual told in her lyrics as she is the first and only character to sing her own song.
Red is a perfect introduction as it sets up the motif that every character is a twisted take on a fairy tale not to mention her dynamic fighting style sets the stage for the craziness that is RWBY.
All 4 characters represent the 4 core parts of the story of RWBY, the battle, the music, the lore, and the character. RWBY also pronounced as Ruby.
Well said 🙂
Well, I'll tell you that not everyone likes it because of its attractive appearance, in my case I like that it is a melee character (that is, that it shows fighting skills apart from having weapons that it uses long and short distance)
the hair color clearly (the yellow color itself is my favorite)
and clearly has a lot of personality and is also very cool.
Not everyone. Red is my favorite, and hooked me on the show. Red Trailer is also my favorite UA-cam video with over 500 views.
Wow this is interesting, you hardly see people watching rwby nowadays but im glad someone is this show is actually really good I hope you continue it. Also congrats on the new milestone! 🎉🥂
Thanks! 🥳🥂🍾
Yay RWBY! I am so happy you saw this :D
edit: I was just watching RWBY with my niece and nephews this afternoon. Its just funny to see some of my favorite people seeing this as well 😊
☺️😀🥳🥳
Play close attention to the music, it is in fact a huge part of the show. The girl singing in these is the daughter of the guy who wrote most of it, she was like 13 or 14 when she recorded these songs. Her mother sings with her at times as does her father and they have remained a part of the shows through the following seasons.
Modern day partridge family 😊☺️ Thanks for heads up on keeping eye on music 🙂
(At 18:20) definitely like the move she used to finish her.
😁
Hello! I've only just discovered you both, but from the reactions I have seen, I seriously think you'd enjoy watching RWBY. You're garunteed to fall in love with the characters, and the story is so immersive and always leaves you wanting more. I'd absolutely love to watch you both react to the series, and not only will I, but all the RWBY fans will flock to your channel to watch it as well. It's a wild ride for sure, and the fandom definitely has it's ups and downs (as do all) but I can say with confidence the RWBY experience is like none other. Not only that, the music is so amazing and helps tell the story from characte's points of view. Hope you decide to give it a chance, and either way, you've earned a sub from me
Thanks so much for the warm welcome to the RWBY community and welcome to our little community 🤗😊🥳 We do plan to continue with rwby just figuring out details on how best to do it 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2
Ofc ofc! Can't wait to watch your reactions
All 4 of them have some kind of gun or gun-like feature in their weapons:
Ruby (Red)'s scythe is also a sniper rifle
Weiss (White)'s rapier acts as a revolver, although it isn't actually a gun
Blake (Black)'s sword is also a pistol
Yang (Yellow)'s gauntlets are also shotguns that have explosive rounds
Even Adam (guy from Black trailer) has a shotgun as the sheath of his katana
😎🤟
A really great series to get into. My husband didn't really take interest in it until waaaaay later but he's since then watched the whole thing with me and he's been a fan ever since.
Also congrats on the 25k!
Thanks for the congrats. Was your husband into this type of series before or first time? 🤔
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 not really. He didn't really show too much interest until a particular episode in volume 6. By then, the animation was significantly better and when I got home from work and started watching that particular episode, something about it [to avoid spoilers] really drew him in and he was absolutely determined to find out what happened next. So I went ahead and went through the entire series again from the first episode with him. It took a great while to get caught back up but now it's one of his favorite shows. And we're very particular about what animated shows we get into. Now we're just stuck in limbo waiting for Volume 9.
I always enjoy the reactions keep it up (by the way it's pronounced "ruby")
😎👍🙂
Heyo, I’m so glad you’re reacting to these trailers and I highly, HIGHLY recommend you guys watching the entirety of RWBY. Seriously, this series is absolutely amazing, though I’ve seen all of RWBY, I’ll tell you this, first three seasons has that weird animation 3D, but the next three seasons and last two seasons is where the animation gets better. I’ll edit more and tell you about the main 4 members of RWBY
Ruby Rose is the leader of the team and the young sister to Yang, her weapon is called Crescent Rose, which is a combination of a rifle and a huge scythe. I see her as the Michelangelo of the group, since they sometimes joke about. And I’ve heard that Death Battle paired her against another character which we’re all waiting for the fight to happen, Maka from Soul Eater
Weiss Schnee is another member of the RWBY team, she’s part of a million dollar company who manufactures Dust, no not dust you clean off, Elemental and Weaponry dust for each weapon the franchise has, though once you see the family, you’ll see that she doesn’t get along with her family except her older sister Winter. Her weapon is Myrtenaster, which is a pistol revolver and a rapier. She doesn’t glide on the ground or have skates, she protects Glyphs that she uses for her attacks. Also, she’s the Donatello of the group, who they all have resources, Dust and tech. Death Battle paired her with a combatant from the Persona franchise, Mitsuru Kirijo which is part of Season 6
Blake Belladonna is another member of Team RWBY, she’s been through a lot. First off, she’s a Faunus, specifically a Cat Faunus, a race of humans with animal features and they’re a subject to discrimination and it doesn’t get any easier. The guy paired up with her in this video you’re seeing is Adam Taurus, and he’s a horrible, horrible person and boyfriend to her, practically abusive. She’s always running away and sometimes a loner, but RWBY has softened her up to open up, and there’s a member of Team RWBY that fans were like “I ship it”. I paired her with Leonardo, no, it’s not with the leader aspect but because they sometimes go on solo adventures. Her weapon is Gambal Shroud, which is an amazing weapon I’ll tell you. Death Battle paired her with a character from a fantastic anime series, Mikasa Ackerman from Attack on Titan
Yang Xiao Long is the last member of Team RWBY, and the older sister to Ruby. She’s a thrill seeker at heart, but sometimes she knows when she gets serious, and when something bad happens, her temper will fly. I paired her with Raphael, considering sometimes they have tempers, and there’s a member of Team RWBY that fans were like “I ship it”. Her weapon is called Ember Celica, which are gun gauntlets, complete with normal & explosive rounds. Death Battle has paired her with a character of a game series, Tifa Lockhart, from Final Fantasy (Even if this fight is controversial)
Thanks for giving us more info on the main characters in the show 😀 It’s one we may end up checking out as we heard Rooster Teeth doesn’t mind full reactions 🙂
Do a series of the full episodes! Roosterteeth welcomes reaction channels to watch their content as long as you wait atleast a week from an episodes release to post your reaction to your channel!
We do plan to start posting reactions. We are watching ahead though to avoid spoilers before posting our reactions 😇
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 Awesome!
This video has been out for while, but I wanna comment! Yang started of being my favourite, cause she is just so funny and loveable, but Weiss is my favourite now because she gets a lot of character growth in the direction I like c:
On another note: Just found you guys some days ago and binched a lot of your content already! Especially on the games channel xD
Glad you found our content and have been enjoying it. We will have RWBY reactions coming in September 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 Awesome! ^^
So at a heads up RWBY is pronounced the same as 'Ruby'. The show (and the first Red trailer) was made as a proof of concept by the fight choreographer Monty Oum (RIP). So the fights have always been centre stage, and the lore plays a lot of catch up in the early seasons. But the story is still very well done, and with the shows initial snowballing success the budget and animation levels up by leaps and bounds each season.
A perfect blend of whimsy and fun wrapped in excillerating combat.
😎👍😀
Fantastic video and reaction. RWBY,looks awesome and incredible combat scenes. Keep being amazing
Thanks! 🤗🥳
RWBY is something really special. Ups and downs notwithstanding, it's always been a labor of love with a passionate community. The animation starts as you saw, but improves every season, making extra big jumps in quality at Volumes (seasons) 4 and 6.
The music is all bespoke for the show. Mainly a father-daughter team; Jeff and Casey Lee Williams, who are both *_incredibly_* talented musicians. The lyrics are often akin to a greek chorus, singing from a particular character's perspective or internal monologue. Musical pieces tied to particular characters retain the same elements across multiple songs. There is so much there that people who react to the show, often do separate react and analysis videos, _just_ for the music.
The characters and monsters are mostly based on fairytale analogues, with nods in their name and/or character design to their origin. You noticed a couple already. Some references are more obvious than others, with the fanbase having fun teasing out the obscure ones over the years.
It started as the brainchild of an animator by the name of Monty Oum. The Red trailer is entirely his work, and served as the pitch presentation to Rooster Teeth. He sadly passed away prior to the show's third volume but his friends and coworkers kept the show going in his memory. He was an amazing talent, and an all-around inspiring person. Known prior to most people for his dynamic fight choreography in Red vs Blue, and Dead Fantasy. His signature style is that everything is in motion, all the time. The choreography tells a story of each fighters thought process in the moment, and even sometimes their growth as characters.
At its core, this is a character-driven story. It centers on teenagers, but it is not a kids story. The gore gets turned down a bit more than what you saw, while the lewdest thing is some handholding and the occasional kiss; but the show deals with mature topics like racism, alcoholism, depression, murder and abuse, while the world itself is incredibly dangerous just to live in. Overall, it's an emotional rollercoaster if one can empathize with the characters.
If you want more to watch, there are various grades of spoilerific, and spoiler-free options.
100% Spoiler-Free: the SLVR trailers. This is a fan animation set in an alternate RWBY timeline with totally different characters. More of the crazy combo weapons and powers you've seen, but completely unconnected.
99% Spoiler-free: The "Volume 5 Weiss character short", and "Volume 5 Yang character short". (Yes, Volume 5, seriously). They show the same girls in the White, Red, and Yellow trailers, and canonically take place _before_ the fights you saw. The real highlight is that you get to see the show in the new animation engine, with more polished voice work, as a preview to see how gorgeous it looks today.
90% Spoiler-free: The "Volume 5 Blake character short". As above, it partially takes place before the events of the trailer, but partially in volume 5 itself. It also spoils a pretty big plot point from the end of Volume 1. Nothing critical, but it would mean you know something before the characters do.
50% Spoiler: The "RWBY Ice Queendom trailer". This is a Japanese anime studio redoing the first season of the Rooster Teeth show. I cannot overstate how weird it is that this "anime-inspired" *_American_* show got _such_ a big following in Japan that they are making an anime of it. Like any show trailer, it hits some random highlights.
Spoilerific:
The deathbattles. Yang vs Tifa, Weiss vs Mitsuru, Blake vs Mikasa. All good watches that go over the characters in depth.
The Volume 1-8 openings. Pretty spoilery even lacking context. But such a good watch _and_ listen.
I'll end with a note on the fans, or FNDM (fandom). It is an overwhelmingly positive, supportive, and inclusive community; always looking for new reactors to introduce to the series.
The show has its own vocal detractors though, for various reasons. Some of which are about the quality of the show itself changing over time, and some about staffing or business decisions the company made. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I feel that the energy of the people complaining is a sign of how passionate they were as fans before they checked out. Their connection to the show being incredibly strong before the particular triggering event happened that they personally thought was too much. After all, "the opposite of love isn't hate, it's apathy". That speaks to how deeply it has touched some people's lives. I think it says a lot though when the detractors say *_"I_* don't like this anymore, so *_you_* shouldn't watch it". That is too much.
I encourage you to judge the show for itself, it has a lot to offer both on its own, and through its various spin offs like RWBY Chibi. It is made with a lot of heart, and it shows.
Thank you once again for the great content. Congratulations on your milestone. I look forward to seeing what's next. :)
Thanks so much for the info on the show and other stuff to check out that won’t be spoilers (props on giving percentages 🙂) And we agree that apathy and just not caring is the worst and the more you care the more critical you can be sometimes 🤗 (proverbial “you”)
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 Thanks :)
I'm going to see if I can move some stuff around and join you on Patreon. If you have patrons asking for RWBY content, I think that's the place I want to hang out.
If the stuff you've seen has piqued your interest, and you do choose to take up the show. Plenty of people can give you guidance on watch order (which episodes are two parters, and where to fit in the bonus episodes), how to deal with RoosterTeeth as a content creator, and how much of a lead time to give yourself to avoid spoiling the big plot points.
If you wanted to reach out to BlindWave, The Normies, MurderOfBirds, or Puns of Damage; they've all done the series, loved it, and can give you the inside scoop.
Keep on being awesome. :)
Y'alls reaction is honestly how me and some people i know reacted to seeing the character trailers for RWBY, wish we could go back to those days when RWBY came out
My favorite was red when I watched the trailers, but throughout the show red remained my favorite. Lol
Nice. Glad Ruby remains solid 😁
For Reference Ruby is just turned 15 at the time of the trailers and season 1-3 the rest of the younger characters are 17-18.
Most people miss it but Beacon is a University level institution not a high school
😎👍🙂
Red: Ruby Rose is based off Little Red Riding Hood.
White: Weiss Schnee is based off Snow White.
Black: Blake Belladonna and Adam Taurus (but mainly Blake) are based off Beauty And The Beast.
And Yellow: Yang Xiao Lang, Ruby Rose's older half sister, is is based off Goldilocks.
Oh, and the guy nicknamed "Junior" (who got his balls crushed) his real name translates in Chinese meaning "Black Bear". Hence meaning he's based off the small or Baby Bear from Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
😎👍😀
This is cool to see. As a rwby fan its fun to see people get all excited about such old trailers :)
They were very well done 🤩
I also recommend watching Dead Fantasy at some point, it was made by the same man behind RWBY.
That’s one that’s been on our list for a bit 😅
Oh 2 days ago, sweet new channel to see watch RWBY. Subbed.
RWBY! Hell yeah!
🥳🥳
Good memories from the past! :D
I haven't seen the Trailers in such a long time so it was fun that you react to them!
Maybe another blast from the past next: Madness Combat by Krinkels? :D
That is in our request list 🙂
