Fun fact, Yang and Adam were originally going to have a fight in volume 3 but it got scrapped for time so it got shortened to Adam one shotting her, but Monty had made some animations for it and they were reused here
Wow! I've been a fan for such a long time and never heard that. I'm so glad they were able to use more of Monty's animations here especially for Adams death
Monty was using Session by Linkin Park to animate the Fight. It would've looked so cool had he finished it, Probably would've made top 3 if he did.
Yang seems to have a lot of trouble making friends! Let’s give her a HAND!
I never knew that actually
did monty made a roadmap before he passed away ?
I love Nora SO MUCH! “You get back here with my man!” She is the QUEEN OF THE CASTLE!
I love Blake’s statement of “she’s not protecting me, and I’m not protecting her. We’re protecting each other.” At the beginning of this volume, Blake acted like she had to try and help protect Yang and do things for her because Yang was hurt in her mind. She’s grown to understand that Yang is stronger than ever and that they can work together to conquer Adam.
Right, but more than that, it ties into Yang getting some kind of closure around her search for Raven. It's not stated, but I think Yang was looking for a mother-figure in Raven. She now accepts that's not going to happen, but is pretty vulnerable over it. Equally, she has some resentment around having to look after Ruby when they were both children. So she doesn't want responsibility either.
Blake agreeing to be her equal, here, is what Yang now wants. Probably wanted back in V3/4, at least subconsciously, and that's part of why Blake running hurt her so much.
Blake and Yang's fights against Adam are some of my favorite fights in the entire series. The choreography is absolutely stunning and the animation is just the cherry on top. Plus the "Armed and Ready" orchestral reprise when Yang arrives? *Chef's Kiss*
Yeah it was a great fight 🤩
That nice SDC brand on his face puts a lot of his mentality in context. Hide his pain by inflicting fear and death. He's why the White Fang wore masks, and people like Sienna praising and feeding that complex made it so much worse.
That was, until Sienna saw his petty act of revenge in Beacon and tried to bring him to heel before Haven. We saw the end result of that.
8:12 It's possible Nora only survived because of Jaune's semblance. You can see a flash of it activating just before the impact and yet both their auras were completely depleted from the hit.
One detail I like in this episode is that after Blake explains Adam's semblance, Yang changes her fighting style slightly to try and prevent Adam from blocking with his sword. She's not 100% successful but I like it shows how she's learned the lessons her dad was teaching her about the best way past an obstacle is sometimes going around it instead of through it.
Exactly this. Most other shows would either ignore that fact in the subsequent fighting or they would miraculously be able to avoid the thing that makes the antagonist stronger. Instead we get a realistic situation where Yang does her best to avoid powering the sword, but sometimes, you just have to take the shot where you can take it, or Adam is able to maneuver to cause his sword to be hit.
One nice detail that you can see is that Adam wasn't fighting serieously with Blake, because he didn´t used his semblace like he did with Yang. Also, Adan is very strong, super strong, i'll said he is close to Crow lvl.
I mean the sheer amount of Aura he has alone makes him a Juggernaut.
I'd say he's below Neo level personally. His semblance is kind of his big power gaper but also his downfall because he relies on it so much to win fights against those he knows are actually capable of beating his ass. That being said he's probably the only one sans Tyrian and Qrow that would be able to get hits in on Neo in a 1v1 because of speed alone.
@@daysand123 I don't think you can say its his big power gaper considering the amount of technical skill he has ontop of his speed. I love Yang, but having a cutting edge tech super prosthetic arm made by the top of the line design from Atlas, is a huge advantage here and I don't think she'd tank that hit as well otherwise. To be honest MOST wouldn't tank that hit well. We also know Yang has a rather chronic issue fighting against faster or more agile opponents.
he's just walmart Vergil, both in personality and powers
@@elpepo0 that's an insult to Raven, the actual show vergil down to being a deadbeat with a power complex.
The implication to Schnee summoning is that only defeated grimm can be summoned, I'm guessing this is because they are a living creature without a soul, hence she cannot summon humans or robots. Even her knight is a grimm, it's one of those Geist grimm we saw RNJR fight at the beginning of Vol 4, except instead of possessing rocks, it possessed one of the giant suits of armour in the Schnee mansion.
It's pretty much Grimm that pose the most difficult challenge for them, as seen in the White Trailer, chapter 10 of Volume 1, and chapter 2 of Volume 5
I actually hadn't thought about why they can only summon Grim, but that makes sense, a semblance is powered by Aura, and Aura is the Soul and it's energy, so the Schnee Semblance could be interpreted as pouring a little bit of your soul into an empty vessel to make it an ally.
According to the manga the knight isn't just a single geist but actually an amalgamation of multiple posesion grimm so it is a bit unique that way. Also I don't know if this is confirmed but the way Winter talked about the summons "Now think to your fallen foes! The ones who forced you to push past where you were, and become who you are now." makes me think that they can't just summon any grimm they defeat but specifically the ones who gave them challenges. The Armas Gigas forced Weiss into the hardest fight she'd had so far, the boarbatusk knocked her off her feet and disarmed her and she had to get creative to defeat it, and the Queeen Lancer she threw so many attacks and dust but it took her summon to defeat it (and excluding the paladin from Volume 3 it was the first time Weiss used it in a fight). Winter's summons seem lower level (small nevermores and beowolfs) but maybe she was less well trained before fighting grimm so those gave her difficulty.
10:51 This is the best single reaction you've had this whole show so far. The sheer detest you both have for Adam is just seeping out of every pore of both of you there and it's great!
The only character I hate more than Adam is Weiss’ father whose name I refuse to spell out of spite
It’s incredible how accurately gross Adam’s dialogue is.
A lot to say about the actual fighting, some of it better left until next week, but it’s clear Blake’s strategy is to just get Adam away from his sword. And Yang always does a dodge before a quick combo, then backs out again.
The moment of Adam unmasking has stayed with me since I first saw this episode. For several seasons his character has bothered me. Why was he like this? What pushed him to become the embodiment of spite? The pieces didn't add up for me.
Then he took off the mask, and it clicked. Oh. That's why. That would do it, alright.
I still don't like him. He's a terrible person, and I disagree with his goals. But now, everything about him suddenly makes sense.
Adam Tauras just has shitty writing most of his conduct makes no sense and its just for the sake of the plot
@@ivanteoh930I always assumed he like many other Faunus suffered abuse and persecution at the hands of humans. It's not hard to make the assumption.
Making the your recurring villain just a Sociopath Stalker who'd never suffered would be truly awful writing.
I love how Adam is like a dark reflection of Yang.
They are warriors fighting for righteous (self-righteous in Adam's case) causes. They get more powerful by absorbing damage. They're strong, passionate... and very troubled.
Yang lost her mom, her biological mother left her, and her dad shut down. Because she could only count on herself, she made herself strong to spent her free time picking fights and looking out for her little sister, who looks up to her.
Since he was child, Adam suffered insults, beatings, humiliations, and had no one to rely on because the other faunus were "weaklings satisfied to gnaw on scraps and afraid to leave the nest". One day he had enough and decided to face the people who called him and his kind "animals", becoming a symbol of revolution.
That's why Blake was insure about Yang at first: she reminded her too much of Adam. She already had trusting issues, but after Yang broke Mercury's leg "in self-defense", Blake was the only teammate who wasn't satisfied until she made her promise that she didn't do it on purpose.
Their traumas have affected them greatly. Adam is full of spite because every time he looks in the mirror he remembers what the world did to him, and Yang can't stop shaking every time she remembers that night in Beacon. And Blake's running triggers their abandoment issues, causing them to snap at everyone who mentions her.
When Blake rejoins team RWBY, Yang has her doubts because she doesn't believe that she's staying because she wants to, but because she feels guilt or pity for what happened to her. What Blake doesn't see is that Yang isn't angry about losing her arm.
What I love the most about the scene when Adam takes off the blindfold is that Blake doesn't seem surprised when she sees his eyes. Adam wore the mask to become the monster humanity took him for. Because he couldn't show his vulnerable side to anyone... and yet, he did show it to Blake. Because they trusted her, and she left something worse than scars: *she left them alone.*
In short, Adam is what Yang would have become if she couldn't let go of the past.
This volume had a crazy amount of highlight episodes. Chapter 1 was a great opener, 3 was the long awaited lore, 5 brought back Neo in a flashy fight sequence & set the ambience for chapter 6, a wonderful horror episode. We got a badass Maria backstory in 7, a tearful homage to a fallen hero in 9, & one of the most engaging encounters in the series for the third act. The finale is pretty good so can't wait for you guys to get to that.
Strange facts...most believe the burn mark on yangs metal arm is similar to how the beast was protecting bel from the wolves in beauty and the beast
I'm not certain, but I believe Adam was brand as property of the Schnee Dust Company(SDC) as a child which sparked his hatred towards humans. After his release or escape(I don't know which) he joined the White Fang and shortly after Siena Khan took over and praised him for his tenacity and eagerness to fight back against the humans that had mistreated the Faunus for so long. This encouragement fueled his way of thinking sending him farther down the dark path he followed. He rose through the ranks and was eventually partnered up with Blake. They did several missions together and became close, until the last mission which we see in the Black trailer where Adam is will to kill the crew members of the cargo train transporting Dust from the SDC. Blake doesn't agree with this and severs the Dust cars from the reas of the train leaving Adam feeling confused and betrayed. And the rest we see unfold in the show.
I really appreciate how even when Adam shows his scar, and all the baggage and implications that come with it (including the fact that it's over the same eye as Weiss's), Blake doesn't flinch. Adam didn't deserve a brand to the eye, but here he's just using it as a weapon to hurt Blake, and he deserves no sympathy for that.
Oh, she looks away for a sec. Because she's capable of empathy. But she turns back, because she recognises the manipulation, the attempt to exploit that when other people's treatment of him is not her fault.
It's a good scene.
He didnt deserve it when he got it. He deserves it now. Lol
Some people naturally born to get psychopatic easily. I think if Adam hadn't get this scar and join WF, he could be a serial murderer like Ted Bundy. Nice guy at look, dangerous beast at heart.
The writers also implied that he deserved it when he got it
And using blade pistols for climbing is another reason to love Rens guns
rip in peace bumbulbee bike
"You get back here with my man!" Lmao, you tell'em Nora.
The song playing in the battle vs Adam scene is from Yang's perspective and it's called "Armed and Ready" btw. Some dark humour 🙂
Huh, no comment on Adams unmasking? Don't see that often. In case you guys didn't get it, the brand on his face says SDC; Schnee Dust Company. The implications are, well, yeah.
Also pretty sure Wiess can only summon Grimm that she's defeated. We've never seen her or Winter (remember, they have the same semblance) summon anything other than that.
When Jaune grabbed Nora he amplified her aura with his so they could survive that hit. Yeah, Jaune has enough aura to take an impact from a gigantic mecha AND gift some extra to another person so they can do the same. Man's stacked! Not sure if it's the most impressive feat of durability we've seen thus far, but it's up there.
Thank you bumblebee we won't forget your sacrifice for the bees 🏍💛🖤🐝
I miss Black Sun.
🫡
This was an immaculate jumping, Adam really could not fight back lol
Adam is a great example of needing to understand how somone can get to that point. You dont need to like him but understanding his origin helps to try and prevent more people ending up like him
Adam is bullheaded in so many ways.
He's an outright LUNATIC. At least Roman was sane and likeable. He was just a crook.
There is a portion of the community that didn't really like the direction that CRWBY did with Adam. Some of the FNDM think that they turned Adam into more of a stalker into the later volumes and figured that he should have had a bigger villain role (or maybe somehow get redeemed?). Not really sure about the points that they make, because personally...
I could see the direction that they took Adam. You could tell from the original black trailer, her explaining Adam to Sun back in V2 and later in V4 & 5.
Now, did Monty, Miles, and Kerry have notes about this since the first volumes? Not sure, I would imagine so, don't have access to their volume notes. But they slowly showed the subtle possessive nature that Adam had, even in the black trailer, but his hatred for humans was higher at that time. Which again, is understandable. Having the SDC brand burned onto your face would be traumatizing for anyone to go through.
Now, could the CRWBY turned Adam more into a smarter villain with more fights in the future? I mean, with story writing you could try to justify anything. So, yes, they could have tried going in that direction, but it might have lead to more hero sacrifices. Blake's parents dying. Mortal wound to one of the RWBY team. But, the price might have been higher and darker than what the FNDM might have been looking for.
But, again, I was fine with the fight between Blake, Yang and Adam on these last few chapters of Volume 6.
I genuinely don't know how extensive the notes were, but the dedication i've seen post-Monty is something i think he'd be proud of. Even if he had a different plan for Adam, i'm sure he knew someone who knew what a villain a stalker could be and would have loved the idea. Doesn't really fulfill the Beast arc of Beauty and the Beast, which would be a redemption arc. I assume he'd probably have started with that. But i think he'd have been cool with the "no, he's just a beast" arc.
@@WaywardVetI personally see Adam as a comparison to Gaston
This fight, Bmblb vs Adam is one of the best ones in this show, for sure - the choreography is spectacular! Btw, Jaune is a strategist - it's why Ozpin chose him as the leader of team JNPR back in V1^^
Part of the fight against Adam (I don’t remember if it’s in this episode or the next one) was leftover animation by Monty himself, made before he died but not used until now because it wasn’t a complete scene
The Faunus are people but Adam is truly an animal.
I've enjoyed your reactions to RWBY but especially this volume just to see your faces every time Adam speaks. :)
I nearly paused doing my errands when this popped up in notifications. Now that i've marinated in anticipation, let's go!
"And you said it wasn't beach/bitch season", as a non english speaker at that time (I'm french), I didn't understood the double meaning behind that, but now, that one of my favorite line of Nora and a clever way to swear without really doing it lol.
I don't believe that's what's intended. I think it's just 'cause they're at the shore.
I really like how Blake changes her stance when she says "we're protecting each other", showing confidence by the side of a trusted one, that she has grown and opened herself to others. While Adam didn't changed since the beginning of the show. She's not afraid anymore, and without fear Adam has no power. He's lost already, the rest is eye candy.
Ah, I see you've redecorated
I love this fight but imagine it without the sound, the short clip of Yangs bike, just Blakes clone dissapearing and the "Im not alone" line, Bumblebee sound and then BÄM, Bike to the Face. Would have made it stronger and Blakes ear twitch could have still given enough of a hint that she knew what was about to happen. Still, this fight marked the return to form for RWBY for me and made me fall in love with the series again....especialy considering the next ep
8:15 And here we witness a first in the series: The first time Jaune's aura breaks.
RIP Bumblebee.
I just love this vol its my second fav of the series, especially for the ruby scenes i just love her character shes absoultely adodable and badass, just a bean, she and weiss go back and fourth as my #1 fav i guess i might as well say they are tied at my #1 spot 😂, also adam vs blake and yang will always be a top fight scene of mine i honestly think they do a good job. Trying not to add spoilers i just really love this series and love peoples reactions too this amazing series.
Not all of FNDM believed in Bumblebee (the ship) at this time, but Adam clearly did!
Weiss can only summon Grimm that she's defeated
Yeah, I don't think group effort kills count, unless maybe it was Weiss delivering the killing blow.
@@wootcat yep
yeah,. that analysis of 'no one can do anything without Ruby' ,. spot on,. it carries over to season 9 espesially
Ah i can hear the old wounds tearing open, the old good character writing bad character writing vids are literally in the algorithm under this one
yea it was great adam got hit by the bike but the poor bike is gone now you just watched it go flying into the ocean
Just found your channel.Just bingewatched all of LoVM and now R.W.B.Y. Thank you it was a great easter weekend.
Our pleasure! Glad you found the channel and enjoy some of the same shows we do 😀
Well, that was frenetic, to say the least. The reveal of Adam’s scar is one of my favorite moments, because it really does explain his hatred for the SDC and Atlas in particular. But yeah, he essentially devolved into a yandere for Blake. A true mad beast. And now, Blake and Yang are going to deal with him for good. There’s no other way it can end for him.
This lady thinks she's protecting Atlas by trying to murder Weiss schnee over and over again? She's going to prison for the rest of her life if anything
Weiss can only summon Grimm that she has defeated. Anything else is not able to be summoned or else we would have been able to see her summon the Atlesian Paladin she cut in half during the Fall of Beacon. As for people she had defeated... it's implied that "defeated" means "killed" and considering it's the Grimm we're talking about, that makes sense. Let's hope Weiss doesn't have to test Human/Faunus Summoning... Also RIP Bumble Bee, you were the best motorcycle in all of Remnant.
Next chapter, some things are gonna happen, and they're pretty big moments of this Volume.
Naw, nothing happens in that one. They all just get together for a nice cup of tea.
@@jean-paulaudette9246 least I know someone with a sense of humor.
18:55 I don't know Adam specifically was affecting Yang in Volume 4. She would see flashes of him and he was in her nightmares. Adam definitely had a mental impact on Yang too. That's probably at least part of the reason for her hesitation to use the new arm right away.
Fun Facts
Fact 1: The title is based off of the nursery rhyme There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe and refers to Caroline Cordovin.
Fact 2: Nora's line "And you said it wasn't beach season!" is a callback to the episode "Argus Limited".
Fact 3: Some of the animations in Yang's fight against Adam are from an unused incomplete fight scene between the two that was originally going to be in Volume 3. The test footage of the unused scene was leaked and then later deleted. According to Shane Newville, Monty Oum had been working on a Yang vs. Adam fight scene for Volume 3, using a song by Linkin Park. The leaked test footage features Session, by Linkin Park. The reused and adapted animations include:
-In both this episode's fight and the unused Volume 3 scene, Yang starts out kneeling on one knee.
-Adam sends out a pair of dark clones of himself, which attack Yang as they appear. Then, the clones attack again, with the second one merging with the one in front of it, followed by Adam merging with the remaining clone while attacking Yang. The animation was the same in the unused Volume 3 scene, but the camera had a different placement.
-Adam slashes at Yang and sheathes his sword three times, with the final slash knocking her back. In the unused Volume 3 scene, a long slash mark appears in the wall behind Yang.
-Adam creates a pair of clones and runs around Yang with them to disorient her, before stabbing the ground to send an attack toward her. The animation in the unused Volume 3 scene was very similar but not quite identical.
Fact 4: The mech fight was the most effects-heavy of the fights this season.
Fact 5: Blake has always had the scar on her body since the new outfit, but it has been hard to see until her jacket comes off.
Fact 6: Yang hitting Adam with her bike was thought of early on in the scripting process.
Omg y’all coming up on the Finale! It’s So freaking Hype!
15:11 I'm sorry? Did you think the BRANDING over his eye was a fancy fashion choice he made for himself.
And not him being branded like an workhorse or dairy cow by the *S*chnee *D*ust *C*ompany?
I am all for calling out Adam for his obsession and zealous hatred but he is not some sociopathic crazed lunatic for the fun of it.
He's a deeply wounded, deeply tragic character who's lashing out against the world that wronged him in all the wrong ways.
I'm not justifying his actions but people seem to forget that the Faunus have been LITERALLY SLAVES for several centuries. Worked to death by the millions to fuel their factories and mines.
He has every reason to be hateful and spiteful. Him hating Blake is him feeling betrayed by the first person he trusted now gallivanting around with humans to save the cities built by Faunus for Humans.
He's a victim in the same way a Rabid Dog is and unfortunately there's little choice but to put him down.
incase it wasn't the SDC brand on his face stands or Schnee Dust Company
Woo!!!
Probably my favorite episode in this volume ❤❤
5:57 "Wayce and I are on it!"
That really felt like a mispronounced line that they accidentally used. Surely she should be saying "Weiss", not Wayce.
as much as we all hate Adam, I gotta say, I think his weapon and way he fights is the coolest
Thr creator did such a good job making adam such a hated character also love yalls video so much
Careful. The Adam stans are always just behind a corner.
@@daysand123 dont really know if i put that a good way i just mean how they made it so you immediately knew this is a character im supposed to despise
The creators did a good job of destroying Adam's character. Turning him into an angry ex boyfriend was such a crappy development given his character, background. He had has sooo much depth and potential.
@@alexj5937 also i dont hate adam i think they could have done more with him he had good potential
@@alexj5937 This may surprise you, but surface-level swagger does not translate into actual character depth. And the kind of background portrayed for Adam? Breaks people into dangers WAY more than it turns anyone into heroes. Oppression is a zombie outbreak. Treat someone like a threat long enough, a few will start to believe it - and revel in it. And they always eat their own first.
I still wanna know....why brand someone over the face, Adam's pretty young so I'm assuming he got branded as minor which is even more F'ed up
2 posibilities. One, they wanted to brand him in some place like the check or the forehead and he resisted so they "missed" on purpose (I really don't think it was the case)-
Two, they did it as a punishment, maybe he tried to take the place with more faunus (they used to be slaves when they were young, maybe) but failed and got captured (and maybe point one happened? I don't know)
@@SnKanon makes it worse🥲
Well, it's SDC, and we know how they are. This is just my trying to put myself in the mindset of an SDC mine overseer. "You should be looking down when talking to me. Allow me to 'correct your eyesight'. Consider this a warning." - Any given evil SDC corp overseer
Apparently he got into a fight and he had it coming, according to the writers
@@dazaiosamu7184 nah they confirmed it's not canon miles was just thinking of ways he could've gotten it.
Man I wish they spent more time on the giant Atlas robot design... it looks soooo... cheesy. I loved the direction they went with this season, but yeah idk that robot really was hard for me to look past.
when your ex doesn't get over you
You're almost at the end of volume 6. Don't forget to watch "So This Is Basically RWBY" by Jelloapocalypse.
The adam fans are crazy.
Thank god for monty man. Despite the story slacking at this point we still get spoiled with his animation setups
What are you talking about ? How the story can slack off when its a super simple one. Plus this season is more centered on characters than the story if you hadn't realized it yet
Yang and Blake vs Adam is like Zuko and Katara vs Azula
Bumblebee sank so BMBLB can fly.
Hers the moment folks Two Women whom have never had any romantic relationship or interaction suddenly become Girlfriends while Poor Sun gets NTR by Blake
I wish Adam could’ve been good. He is, well was top 5 fighters in the show. Yang and black def won because of plot armor but I’m glad they came out on top
I mean i would have liked for his character to be less black and white too. It made him kinda boring as a villain. IMO Adam and Blake should never have been a couple and should have instead had more of a sibling sorta relationship.
Agreed.
@@davidssubwaycookies190facts
I didn't watch the video but i'm here yo support Adam for what he could have been. Big L on Adam's death
I don’t like the ship bumblebee black sun is it
