It’s interesting to think the Jabberwalk was effectively the first proto-grimm. And it gives some context as to why the grimm pools are found throughout the god of darkness’s domain. In the end he was still unwilling to fully give up on that one creation
@@j.t1221 That isn't really a theory. We are literally shown that here... The darkness pools is something that was already mentioned before, so we about them being in His domain. Now we just have context as to WHY they were there in the first place.
Well we have some conformation of a few things: 1. Jaune returned to his normal age with some character development 2. Little was reborn and is now the new protector/guide of the Ever After 3. Neo has set out to find he new purpose in life 4. And Team RWBY and Jaune have returned to Remnant to continue where they started.
Yeah... and Jaune isn't a fan of his young squeaky voice anymore. Neo being given a 2nd chance instead of being in hatred is what she really needed. She needed the tea more than Ruby, then again, can't think of anything good when in anger. It's good to know that the Tree always has ways, and it's good to know the RWBY can always move forward, no matter the developments
The Blacksmith might have just revealed the key to saving Remnant from the wrath of the brothers. As she explained, what the brothers are lacking is the understanding that they need to have more love and patience for their creations, to see their journey through to the end. Cause the GoL gave Ozma a rather impossible task. Sure, humanity can be united and might not be demanding blessings from the gods. But as life goes on, new generations will exist, and new individuals may not share the same sentiment. It's ultimately asking for perfection from humanity forever, but that kind of notion would strip humanity of their free will. And while I won't defend what Salem did, the GoL should not have simply been trying to give Salem a lesson on the importance of life and death, but instead talk to her on a more emotional level, understanding what she is suffering. Maybe create some animal companion to aid her in recovery.
You really spoke what was on my mind there. I won’t defend Salem either, but she spent nothing but a life of suffering. First under her father, then by having her chance at happiness taken away cruelly by an incurable sickness with the Brothers stubbornly defending their actions, then said Brothers making her suffer even more with the curse of immortality and solitude, and then having having them inadvertently make the only person she loved and trusted betray her over their threat in destroying the world. Not to mention until now, the main cast treated that life as if was an arbitrary sob story for a classical villain from a fairy tale. If they realize her suffering and understand exactly why she’s gone to great lengths to find any kind of happiness (and for the Brothers, instead of treating humanity as an experiment), everything would’ve gone very different. Plus, it shows the Brothers have no right to teach anything about balance if they’ve done nothing but disrupt said balance themselves. And when they to create balance, they FORCE it, which prompted more resistance like with Salem. As the blacksmith said, balanced cannot be forced, it only works when it occurs naturally, and even now, they still haven’t learned that.
@@Raiden7284677 Also, while I can try to understand the lesson the GoL tried to force Salem to learn, and even the GoD's destruction of humanity after what they did, I really felt that what they did with Ozma was beyond messed up. They brought him back, killed them, brought him back again, only to kill him again, was just horrible. For both Salem and Ozma both. Ozma had to be brought back only to die again twice more. And Salem had to watch it all happen. Definitely traumatizing really. When I saw the brothers fight over the Jabberwalker, I felt like I was watching Ozma all over again.
@@0axis771 The GoL is a way to self-righteous, I won't argue that. But it doesn't change the fact that Salem's self-entitlement and refusal to admit her faults is the true reason behind her suffering, not the Brothers. They told her how to break her curse, but she's still on the warpath thousands of years later because her refusal to fulfill the one and only requirement led to her stupidity jumping into the Grimm Pool and then try to find a loophole in her curse. As for Oz's impossible task, he himself made it impossible by seeking Salem out AGAINST the GoL's warnings. That being said, I'm pretty sure Salem's plan is doomed to fail...again. The GoL told Ozpin that if he brought the Relics together, the Humanity will be judged. And since Jinn and Ambrosius, creations on the GoL, always seem to function on Exact Words, Salem doing it instead won't yield the result she wants.
@@Kovugamez Oh, I will always agree that Salem is the one that chose to be a horrible person when they literally gave her an out. My issue is that the gods reviving and killing Ozma was...pretty messed up. If I saw my loved one revived, killed, revived again, only to die again by the whims of the gods, I might hate them as well. It's a really traumatic thing.
So I think there's something interesting about the Blacksmith's reaction to Jaune's question about what happened to Alyx. There was a moment of surprise and then when you think about Alyx's wish to fix things, it's possible that she became the Blacksmith to fix the things that had been broken. She had been waiting for Jaune to arrive for a long time, which is curious because why would she have been waiting for him specifically? Also there was a sense of regret when she was talking about the betrayal of the Curious Cat.
I think Alyx became Pyrrha. The "regret" the Blacksmith had when talking about the Curious Cat was probably pity, since she had to watch the cat suffer, along with Jaune.
@brainflash1 I like this theory alot and I kinda hope that is true but at the same time I kinda hope the tree is alex as well XD volume 9 of RWBY finally made me feel like I was watching the first 3 volumes all over again.
@@brainflash1 I'm gonna have to say that probably can't be possible because Pyrrha has a mom/aunt in their world who looks like an older version of her that was there when the team looked at her statue. Pyrrha had to have popped out of her or someone related to her.
@@sharifbrown3567 Why would that make it impossible? Ruby had the chance to go back and become her own mother, and I'm pretty sure Summer wasn't an immaculate conception.
Given we have a city that is probably-Vacuo/Shade Academy (I don't think they've mentioned the name of the actual capital in Vacuo....) with a bunch of Atlas airships over it, chances are it is they-are-really-going-to-wish-they-had-another-week o'clock.
On a side note, send the Brothers, too, once this is done. In the end, it is really THEY who need a lesson about balance, NOT Salem. As the blacksmith said, balance isn’t obtained FORCEFULLY but NATURALLY.
The brothers at this moment seem more like children then actual gods. They don’t have patience or understanding to know what balance is. They could have understood why salem was like the way she was when she met them. She was hurting. But they treated her like she was beneath them. Abd when they didnt like how she couldn’t learn her lesson. They left her with immortality with no way to see her love. I see that more as like a parent taking away a artist drawing pad as they never did what they wanted. It doesn’t fixes the problem. It only makes it worse.
@@tonyemmerson2376 I think it should’ve been clear that the better option would’ve been to help reunite Salem with her love, not in life though, but maybe in death instead. Also I’m not the only who’s thinking that the brothers will be the true final bosses that Team RWBY and their allies will need to defeat in order to free the world only after Salem has been dealt with first during the final volume, am I? Hopefully this will mean that the world will finally be free to make its own choices and decide its own fate without the influence of the brothers, don’t you agree?
Another cool thing is that voicing the Blacksmith made Kimlinh Tran interested in checking out the whole series, so she can gain context for everything building up to the scenes she recorded for. What an impact, gaining a new fan in a voice actor recruited in Year 10.
3:16 It seems like the Curious Cat was much kinder when he was young. And I guess he's not going to reincarnate because of Jabberwalkers` "erasing" ability
I think I noticed something. At the end of volume 6 I noticed ruby’s eyes were more grey than silver. After she finds herself it seems (to me at least) her silver eyes have some back.
7:08 - This just goes to show how WRONG Ironwood was when he thought no one would help Atlas. Ruby's warning to the world created a coalition which Salem's gonna have a harder time dealing with. I assume she'll still win in Vacuo, but our heroes won't make it easy.
I think they suit him. Mind you, the writers were debating on wether or not he gets de-aged. Thank “Gods” they declared he’s been through enough and earned his youth.
If i could feel any expression for the curious cat, It would basically be regret, since the hurt the cat felt was presumably due to when Alex had unfortunately left him and he had to take his hostility out on becoming the antagonist to Team RWBYJ.
I can imagine he was already feeling hurt because his creators basically abandoned him. He didn’t know what happened to them until Alyx (and Jaune) appear to fill in the details. Now he’s given this glimmer of hope. Perhaps he will meet his creators again and…that hope is now taken away. It’s no wonder he’s the villain
After one heartbreaking and hopeless trial after another since the unpleasant ending of Volume 7. Team Rwby have beaten the odds (overcoming their identity problems, excepting their failures from their time in Atlas, defeating a wicked villain and returning home to remnant) and received a happy ending at the finish of Volume 9. After all they've been through they've earned it. Now it's on to the Justice League x RWBY film, and then on to Volume 10.
The Everafter and Tree is possibly the key to helping Salem. I think the question was all wrong “how do I destroy Salem” “how do we defeat Salem” so much focus on defeating, destroying, killing, winning etc. So much destruction…Something that isn’t quite their purpose. The answer was always there Salem just needs help and maybe the Tree in the Everafter can do just that. What good is summoning the Gods if they see that summoning them was all just Salems goal and not Ozma’s actions? What’s stopping the Brothers from punishing Salem more?
Even is Salem does get all 4 Relics and summons the Brothers back, I still think her plan will ultimately fail. The God of Light tasked OZMA to bring Relics together after he united Humanity. Given how the brothers and their creations (the relic genies) tend to abuse Exact Words fairly often, seeing that the condition for their return wasn't properly followed would just make them leave until Ozpin summoned them. And that's assuming they don't punish Salem again for not learning her lesson after several millenia.
Another Volume bites the Dust and what a way to top it off. * Ruby getting her spark back. * Neo choosing to change herself. * The origin of the Gods. * Jaune regaining his youth. * Vacuo getting the much-needed backup against Salem.
6:16 Much as I like jaune regaining his young appearance, I can't help but be saddened that rooster teeth will forget all about his character development and he will just go back to being the laughable dork after being older in the Ever After for 20+ years. I am gonna miss this older jaune as I grew to love his new look and attitude
You know what could be interesting? If this experience causes Jaune to relate to Ozpin. Ozpin has lived multiple lives and now Jaune has had that same experience of gaining all the knowledge and struggles of an adult life, and now going into a second life with that knowledge. I really hope they explore that, it'd be an interesting character development for both of them.
@@amandajohnson3531 It would also help for Oscar and Jaune to bond as they both know what it's like. I read a fanfiction that stars Jaune trying to get used to his young body and adapt again but finds it really hard and ends up befriending Oscar when he finds out what jaune is going through
@@sonicspeedproductions2.04 That's true but this is rooster teeth we're talking about. I'm not holding out on hope for Jaune to keep his development but we will see
Four scenarios: 1) Sun feel sad but happy that Blake found happiness with Yang and remained friend. Sun will eventually find someone else. 2) Sun feel sad and heartbroken. His friendship with Blake will slowly die out. Sun become a bitter hermit sitting on a rocking chair whose legs doubled as nunchucks-staff weapon. 3) Sun feel happy but sad. His sad look make Blake feel conflicted and after talking to Yang, a 3 ways romance get formed requiring navigation in judgemental society. 4) Sun feel conflicted and later, decide to make himself more suitable in Blake's eyes. Thus challenging Yang in some form of comedy before Sun and Yang eventually realize how childish their competition sound so Sun concede and run after someone else who'll return his feeling.
Light and dark. Good and evil. Salem and her inner circle against remnant. May the final battle begin. Only one side will walk away from the battle victorious.
I don't know what's going to happen to stuff like Red Vs. Blue, but I'm sure someone will be willing to buy RWBY when RT goes down. Hoping for the best for this cool show.
Yeah give it another 4 years, we learn where she went, then another 5 and learn what was gonna happen, then just 3 years to see it. Because CRWBY really like keeping they're fans guessing for years and years
I wonder... what happens if the maidens go to the Ever After? More so, if some of them become someone else... would the power merely remain hidden there?
I think this will be the day’s lyrics tells the all story In time, your heart will open minds A story will be told And victory is in a simple soul The victory is beating salem, just a simple soul which is lost in the darkness And heart will open minds like talking to salem will open her brain and make her realize what she has been doing You want a romantic life A fairy tale that's full of charm These lines are also about salem how she desired her love, a fairy tail, a happy ending The all story is about salem and ozma what happened to them but there is a point that we should be careful about why is this story about rwby too? Why did we watched 9 seasons about these girls specially ruby. What happed to summer snd why is this very important in the story?
I've got it in my head that Osma asked the wrong question. The question shouldn't have been "How do I defeat Salem?" it should have been "How do I heal Salem?" True, there is a possibility that what has been broken can't be truly fixed, but if there was a way I would love to see what it could be.
Another thing, did anyone notice the figurine on tthe table by the right side. It's separate from the rest. Its on the part where the blacksmith waved goodbye
l know your bound to be confused after years of not watching, First it was the school than something about the 4 maidens, than the mother of grimm, now this. and yes its been years but It feels like their just trying to evolve the story, make it more complicated than it needs to be. what happaned to them just becoming hunters?
I was hoping they would of unlocked some sort of divine power from the blacksmith to stop Salem cause now what? Salem is still immortal unless rubys accession gave her a new power then I don’t see what else they can do
@@sonicspeedproductions2.04 ya but. She can still come back to life. So it won’t kill her permanently even if team rwby can somehow beat Salem no way they make it out without a death and her not reincarnating
@@sonicspeedproductions2.04 Salem is immortal unless she learns the value of life and death, and it a law of the universe created by the brothers. There is no killing Salem. The question is not "how do we stop/beat Salem?", it is "How do we save Salem?"
I hope that they will give us a early Confirmation Announcement for RWBY's Volume 10 Anime TV Series even if it's another three whole Year's before we're going to finally get to see it return to us again for RWBY Volume 10 From Rooster Teeth Aniamtions Studio's!
According to Kerry Shawcross, the development of Volume 10 was basicaly confirmed when they teased their partnership with Crunchyroll. Which possibly means that the partnership is final and they are just finishing the details.
So when if one living thing dies it will be reborn again with new life and repeat over and over again to continue the cycle for eternity until the end of time and reset again.
Personally i wasnt a big fan of the ending to this season. Kinda made it feel like a filler season. Ruby's sacrifice meant nothing because she was reborn as herself, Jaune's age was reverted, and they appeared basically right where the previous season left off for every other character. The only major progression was Neo being metaphorically killed off. Unless there has been a major time jump between volume 8 and 10 this whole thing just feels like a waste of time. I do really like some of what happened this season but it just felt like nothing of consequence ever mattered.
There's hope yet. People say there are potential candidates to buy RWBY's intellectual property. Like Crunchyroll, A24 and Dillon Goo. We just have to play the waiting game to find out and hope for the best in the meantime.
It's the capitol city of Vacuo - the supposed "final stand" against Salem's forces. As to when - people did math and it's approximetly 2 weeks after they left.
It’s interesting to think the Jabberwalk was effectively the first proto-grimm. And it gives some context as to why the grimm pools are found throughout the god of darkness’s domain. In the end he was still unwilling to fully give up on that one creation
That is an interesting theory
@@j.t1221
That isn't really a theory.
We are literally shown that here...
The darkness pools is something that was already mentioned before, so we about them being in His domain.
Now we just have context as to WHY they were there in the first place.
Well we have some conformation of a few things:
1. Jaune returned to his normal age with some character development
2. Little was reborn and is now the new protector/guide of the Ever After
3. Neo has set out to find he new purpose in life
4. And Team RWBY and Jaune have returned to Remnant to continue where they started.
1.neo to find a new purpose is to help ruby next volume and new neo will be back
2.just like naruto shippuden when the war coming
Yeah... and Jaune isn't a fan of his young squeaky voice anymore.
Neo being given a 2nd chance instead of being in hatred is what she really needed. She needed the tea more than Ruby, then again, can't think of anything good when in anger.
It's good to know that the Tree always has ways, and it's good to know the RWBY can always move forward, no matter the developments
1+ His hair retained the white streak indicative of his time in the ever after
Add Ruby's own lesson and healing. Expectations are a heavy weight. Ruby has become better for her own metamorphosis. She is now the Leader they need.

Even is Salem does get all 4 Relics and summons the Brothers back, I still think her plan will ultimately fail. The God of Light tasked OZMA to bring Relics together after he united Humanity. Given how the brothers and their creations (the relic genies) tend to abuse Exact Words fairly often, seeing that the condition for their return wasn't properly followed would just make them leave until Ozpin summoned them. And that's assuming they don't punish Salem again for not learning her lesson after several millenia.
Anyone else think that Ozpin should really go talk to the blacksmith
Or Salem
Both
THIS WILL BE THE DAY WE WAITED FOR!!!!!
this will be the day we open up the door
I don't wanna hear your absolution
Hope you’re ready for a Revolution
Weiss's laugh straight up gave me life.
The morality of vol 9 no one needs the populace to expect what someone must be as themselves are good enough
I agree with that moral.
I freaking love how light was a deer and dark was a goat. That's just freaking awesome that they become dragons!
*5:19**-**5:38*
Poor curious
🥺
He was created TOO good.
The brothers had the power of creation and destruction. Where did knowledge and choice come from?
Could be those were indicative of the Tree which had both of those
Another Volume bites the Dust and what a way to top it off.
* Ruby getting her spark back.
* Neo choosing to change herself.
* The origin of the Gods.
* Jaune regaining his youth.
* Vacuo getting the much-needed backup against Salem.
There is no guarantee neo will choose to become someone else. She might embrace herself in the process
6:16 Much as I like jaune regaining his young appearance, I can't help but be saddened that rooster teeth will forget all about his character development and he will just go back to being the laughable dork after being older in the Ever After for 20+ years. I am gonna miss this older jaune as I grew to love his new look and attitude
You don't know that. Just because your physical form change doesn't mean you forget anything.
You know what could be interesting? If this experience causes Jaune to relate to Ozpin. Ozpin has lived multiple lives and now Jaune has had that same experience of gaining all the knowledge and struggles of an adult life, and now going into a second life with that knowledge. I really hope they explore that, it'd be an interesting character development for both of them.
@@amandajohnson3531 It would also help for Oscar and Jaune to bond as they both know what it's like. I read a fanfiction that stars Jaune trying to get used to his young body and adapt again but finds it really hard and ends up befriending Oscar when he finds out what jaune is going through
@@sonicspeedproductions2.04 That's true but this is rooster teeth we're talking about. I'm not holding out on hope for Jaune to keep his development but we will see
what are you talking about jaune the main character
Really surprising that no one mentioned amity hanging in the sky
Oh the possibilities
I did
Interesting that the brothers started as a goat and a deer.
I can't be the only one who cried a bit when first seeing this
I wonder how's Sun gonna to react to Blake now lol
I bet Sun would be heartbroken and feel dead inside once he finds out Yang is Blakes girlfriend now. But that’s just my guess.
Four scenarios:
1) Sun feel sad but happy that Blake found happiness with Yang and remained friend. Sun will eventually find someone else.
2) Sun feel sad and heartbroken. His friendship with Blake will slowly die out. Sun become a bitter hermit sitting on a rocking chair whose legs doubled as nunchucks-staff weapon.
3) Sun feel happy but sad. His sad look make Blake feel conflicted and after talking to Yang, a 3 ways romance get formed requiring navigation in judgemental society.
4) Sun feel conflicted and later, decide to make himself more suitable in Blake's eyes. Thus challenging Yang in some form of comedy before Sun and Yang eventually realize how childish their competition sound so Sun concede and run after someone else who'll return his feeling.
Sun knew his crush wasn't going anywhere since season 5. He would just be happy for them.
@@sillybob9689I'm for three, my favorite ending for a love triangle is polyamory.
@@jacobtherrien5419 lmao that reeks of projection
Light and dark. Good and evil. Salem and her inner circle against remnant. May the final battle begin. Only one side will walk away from the battle victorious.
4:00 Ok did anyone else notice when the Black and White stread combined it became a red thread and the red stread represented ruby
It also looked like how Ruby does when she uses her Semblance.
Con esa revelación sobre el Gato Curioso, me dio más pena, el pobre realmente sentía compasión por los Afterianos en un inicio u.u
I just realized that song at the end is a remix of this will be the day
SSP2.0 ~ "Everyone Returns Home"
Neo ~ "Am I a joke to you?"
SSP2.0 ~ "Very much so, yes."
RWBY and jaune are back when they were needed most. GUESS NEO ISN'T NEEDED
CVFY and Sun is in the area too, going to be great to see them again
Come on velvet you can do this..
I had a strong feeling either the twin brothers created the cat or Ozpin created it out of magic.
Confusion on that 2nd part, since Ozpin was after the Cleansing, thanks to Salem's broken heart
@@lumberluc it's just a theory. Someone told me that Ozpin couldn't create things out of magic. So only the brothers theory was correct.
Anyone else get this feeling they’re about to enter a timeskip era?
Like it’s been 2 weeks for them. But in the real world it’s been 3 years
Sounds like a farewell message from Roosterteeth through Ruby when she said "Thank you," at the end.
Champions chosen by the Balance and Fate☯️ 4:05
I wish remnant the best of luck against Salem and her inner circle.
I don't know what's going to happen to stuff like Red Vs. Blue, but I'm sure someone will be willing to buy RWBY when RT goes down. Hoping for the best for this cool show.
Hopefully we'll get more info on what happen to Summer.
Yeah give it another 4 years, we learn where she went, then another 5 and learn what was gonna happen, then just 3 years to see it. Because CRWBY really like keeping they're fans guessing for years and years
I have a feeling that when they meet up with Raven again(because it is going to happen) Ruby is going to ask her that question.
Indeed. Since clearly, both Raven & Salem know more about what happened to Summer Rose than what they're letting on.
@@camnunes8847- as a one piece fan that sounds short timing to reveal a character background.
@Justyn Hill as someone becoming a One Peice fan im gonna see that in like 120 episodes right?
This is last time Rwby seen because Warren Brothers had to do budget cuts
When u realize the blacksmith might be the lively carpenter
They really shouldve had Jaune stay as the rusted knight...he was so much better like that. Even he was dissapointed with himself(mostly his voice)
2:42 aka they got a god complex
When your already missing mature Jaune
6:23 give it time Jaune itll be back
This Will be the day were back thank you ruby for remind me how i need to be see you in volumen 10 ❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I wonder... what happens if the maidens go to the Ever After? More so, if some of them become someone else... would the power merely remain hidden there?
Can't wait for the next volume
I think this will be the day’s lyrics tells the all story
In time, your heart will open minds
A story will be told
And victory is in a simple soul
The victory is beating salem, just a simple soul which is lost in the darkness And heart will open minds like talking to salem will open her brain and make her realize what she has been doing
You want a romantic life
A fairy tale that's full of charm
These lines are also about salem how she desired her love, a fairy tail, a happy ending
The all story is about salem and ozma what happened to them but there is a point that we should be careful about why is this story about rwby too? Why did we watched 9 seasons about these girls specially ruby. What happed to summer snd why is this very important in the story?
They should have asked the blacksmith how to beat salem.
She probably wouldn't tell them as she probably wouldn't know
I've got it in my head that Osma asked the wrong question.
The question shouldn't have been "How do I defeat Salem?" it should have been "How do I heal Salem?"
True, there is a possibility that what has been broken can't be truly fixed, but if there was a way I would love to see what it could be.
So. Is salem the creature of destruction and oswald is the creature of creation?
They went back in time, I think. Right at the start of the evacuation if I had to guess. Hope they get another season.
I will never forgive them for bringing back young Jaune
Another thing, did anyone notice the figurine on tthe table by the right side. It's separate from the rest. Its on the part where the blacksmith waved goodbye
Yeah, I noticed it (I think. The pink thing?). It looked like a crystal or some type of rock
l know your bound to be confused after years of not watching, First it was the school than something about the 4 maidens, than the mother of grimm, now this. and yes its been years but It feels like their just trying to evolve the story, make it more complicated than it needs to be. what happaned to them just becoming hunters?
I love a happy ending.
Todos notaron las flores tienen los colores que simbolizan al equipo rwby
shame that we wont get a seson 10
And to think, we’ll likely never see what happens next.
The two brother that became gods came from the Ever After world, they left their world to create a world of their own.
I was hoping they would of unlocked some sort of divine power from the blacksmith to stop Salem cause now what? Salem is still immortal unless rubys accession gave her a new power then I don’t see what else they can do
Hold Salem down and Ruby uses her silver eyes turning her to stone
@@sonicspeedproductions2.04 ya but. She can still come back to life. So it won’t kill her permanently even if team rwby can somehow beat Salem no way they make it out without a death and her not reincarnating
@@sonicspeedproductions2.04 Salem is immortal unless she learns the value of life and death, and it a law of the universe created by the brothers. There is no killing Salem. The question is not "how do we stop/beat Salem?", it is "How do we save Salem?"
So the story of RWBY is like the Force in Star Wars. The Balance in the Force.
🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭"giggles"
Idk why but I feel like In the next volume we’ll see raven and tai yang make a return.
I hope that they will give us a early Confirmation Announcement for RWBY's Volume 10 Anime TV Series even if it's another three whole Year's before we're going to finally get to see it return to us again for RWBY Volume 10 From Rooster Teeth Aniamtions Studio's!
Should be confirmed in 2023 RTX
Take my words with a grain of salt lol.
But I think Volume 10 was green lit was the Blake/yang confession happened
According to Kerry Shawcross, the development of Volume 10 was basicaly confirmed when they teased their partnership with Crunchyroll.
Which possibly means that the partnership is final and they are just finishing the details.
6:57 I love you Ruby
The cristal pink is neo
Neo cristal will be broken and returns to remnat to help ruby next volume 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Now I wait for someone to set this to what I’ve done by linkin park
So when if one living thing dies it will be reborn again with new life and repeat over and over again to continue the cycle for eternity until the end of time and reset again.
Do you think that Neo will return to the world of Remnant?
Personally i wasnt a big fan of the ending to this season. Kinda made it feel like a filler season. Ruby's sacrifice meant nothing because she was reborn as herself, Jaune's age was reverted, and they appeared basically right where the previous season left off for every other character. The only major progression was Neo being metaphorically killed off. Unless there has been a major time jump between volume 8 and 10 this whole thing just feels like a waste of time.
I do really like some of what happened this season but it just felt like nothing of consequence ever mattered.
I don't like how it seems to place the Brother God's above good and evil.
Ik no one isn't talking about this but what about those innocent people that had fell back in volume 8
Cinder exploded them when they fell off the bridge and they had no aura so they're dead
Am I going crazy, or is that Amity Colosseum at the far left of the skyline?
It's there. Their sacrifice actually did save the place and they were able to get it to Vacuo
? Time dialation
How long were they gone in the ever after?
😊
5:10 I'm pretty sure Little's new name is Stewart.
Pretty sure Little was a reference to that all along actually.
sadly with roosterteeth shutting down we will never get a vol 10 of RWBY. but i would say it ended on high note.
There's hope yet. People say there are potential candidates to buy RWBY's intellectual property. Like Crunchyroll, A24 and Dillon Goo. We just have to play the waiting game to find out and hope for the best in the meantime.
@@HPMCCPooTis yes, I honestly really hope that we get a volume 10, they can't just leave it off here
Thank you. Rwby.
Rooster Teeth and Monty.
Wait I just realized something, why does Amity colosseum look like a Halo frigrate?!?!?!
You know ,jaune is gonna have more screen time on the next volume since without jaune it will be boring since jaune is the main male protagonist
That means the curious cat is super old
Yeah, one of the oldest beings in the RWBY universe.
I think the brothers might be the last enemies in RWBY's last volume
So... the Blacksmith is definitely Alyx, yeah?
Uh...where and *when* have they returned to?
It's the capitol city of Vacuo - the supposed "final stand" against Salem's forces.
As to when - people did math and it's approximetly 2 weeks after they left.
Its Over after all this Years my friends. Thanks.
