yeah, i love that scene sm!! the characters are Amaya and Janai from The Dragon Prince and Amaya is canonically Deaf and communicates in sign language throughout the show :)
you should watch it! Though the show does not revolve around Amaya and Janai, just so you know. I love The Dragon Prince sm though, it’s a very nice show.
Honestly this comp made me realize just how many lgbtq couples were in Dragon Prince. But yea this was very sweet I loved the confessions of catra and She-ra and the Lumity kiss was just adorable.
haha yeah, there were quite a few, although two of them were only background (so far, at least). glad you enjoyed the video, i love Catradora and Lumity too!
Ikr? I’m actually quite surprised they showed so many lgbtq relationships and characters in Dragon Prince because I’ve heard from sources (pre s4 obviously) that they wouldn’t include any more. But boy was I ecstatic to see them!! :D
@@Hey-Its-DingoI know the odds are low that you dont know already... since you know Spencer by name and are in the comments of a vid about queer cartoon kisses... but he makes occasional appearances on Drawfee... a yt channel... and he's always a treat.
It's kinda funny to me how a lot of these couples have a so much more personality than the awkward unnecessary straight romances shoe-horned into everything.
To be fair, I think this happens both ways. There's also examples of terribly written gay relationships. I agree with what Flufux said. A writer should always make sure to write a good character, without having their sexuality in mind, cause that shouldn't be the only defining trait of a character. Just write a good character first and eventually the rest will come naturally. I'm working on a game that represents both a lesbian and a straight couple and IMO they both work wonderfully, cause I spent time actually writing proper characters first and the characters themselves practically told me what they wanted ^^
Its because when a romance isn’t forced but actually built up with strong writing, good acting, & genuine rapport, its better. Not all straight romances are bad but SOOO many are uncessary. And I say this as a straight man who has watched so much over my life. For every Rick and Evie from The Mummy - a damn great romance - you get a hundred more unecessarily paired up male and female lead characters or side characters. Its done so much that movies get praise for not automatically pairing up a male and female lead. And also to this videos point, so many past stories wouldve been more enjoyable had the leads been a LGBT couple / couldve easily been.
It’s amazing to think that we live in a day and age where lgbtq relationships are normalized and shown on television, I feel lucky to get to see representation in media, and let’s hope the list keeps growing!
Barely know any of these shows but most of the rest felt quite underwhelming, maybe because they weren't main characters unlike those two couples? Tho the music playing over the entire compilation doesn't help. The sign language one was cute at least.
I mean I have seen most of these scenes from watching the shows and don’t get me wrong, they are all great. There is just something that is so special about Lumity and it makes me so damn happy. The frustrating part is I don’t know why that particular ship makes me go crazy but whatever they did, it was amazing and I was totally hooked by it.
I love how that whole scene played out. How they both knew in the moment, but Blake still had some subconscious fear about it due to her experience with Adam, which is why she wanted Yang to say it first. But as soon as Yang started saying it, Blake didn't even wait for her to finish talking to say it back. A lot of people don't give the RWBY writers enough credit, these little moments show they really know how to write their characters and keep their personalities consistent and believable.
@@CharginChuck Agreed. I've seen people try to tear into RWBY, but they're wrong. It's still great. They stumbled at first with Vol 4 and 5, since Monty had only just passed away and they needed to figure out how to move forward without him, but they've figured it out and they've been killing it.
The SheRa kiss gets me. Every. Single. Time. I remember watching it with my wife and we were like "Wait... Wait are they gonna- OH MY GOD!" It's a bit hard to put into words how good it feels to have love like mine just... Be there. And portrayed as beautiful. I never would have seen this when I was a kid in the 200s and early 2010s, so this is just awesome.
aww yeah, i felt the same! i knew they'd be canon bc i watched it after the whole show released, but i still wasn't sure we'd get like, a proper confession and a kiss. it was honestly one of the first times i ever saw myself represented on screen, so it'll always have a special place in my heart, too
As a straight person THANK YOU!! I loved seeing all these lgbtq kisses but I want us all to be equally awesome, I’m not better than a gay person, I’m just different
The Lumity scene was so well-animated. I don’t know if it’s just me, but does the animation in it feel more fluid? I dunno, but it has to be one of my favorites, along with Catradora.
Funny how two of them are between a blonde with really pretty and wild hair that lights up when she gets stronger and a catgirl who used to have long dark hair but recently got a shorter haircut, and they both kiss in a situation where their love is literally what gets them out of it.
I love all of this, so adorable! Wish there were more mlm couples, but I'm still so happy for the strides we've made and all the beautiful wlw couples! So cute! Edit: guys, I meant mlm couples that aren't disgusting and full of sexual assault. People consider mlm couples to be more sexual and there are less in kids shows. I love sapphic relationships, but I can still wish gay men were in a few more. This isn't an argument, please be nice :))
The fun thing is to rewatch the series and see the little clues being dropped very early on. Such a well done slow burn romance. I'm showing a friend the series for the first time, and I'm waiting to see when they first ask me about BMBLB. I mean, at this point they should know my proclivity to delight in strong sapphic romances.
the she-ra kiss is so magical to me because it was such a disney moment where the universe was saved by a kiss. it’s something that i’ve always wanted! plus the series pretty much revolved around adora and catra’s traumas and development. ugh i might do a rewatch soon
aww yeah spop is so brilliant and important! the kiss was really the whole big dramatic true love's kiss trope, and queer people barely ever get that, it made me so happy!
I'm just sitting here watching this with a huge smile on my face and tears streaming down my face I'm so happy we're getting recognition Love to all my LGBTQIA people's. I'm bisexual and proud of it. And yo everyone else you are valid you are beautiful you matter so much 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
because people internalise the harmful sentiments society throws at them. struggling with internalised queerphobia directed towards yourself and being a queerphobic asshole to others are not the same thing, and it's harmful to equate them.
When I was like 9 I couldn’t watch kissing of any two characters without physically dying, now I can casually watch She-Ra, Dragon Prince, Owl House, Dead end, and frickin’ Heartstopper and be like “That’s nice, anyways does anyone have popcorn I know this kiss scene is gonna last at least 7 seconds” 👌
as a lesbian in my 20s, who struggled to accept that even with a supportive family and lgbt+ relatives... i am so glad that these future generations get to have this
Hey everyone, thanks sm for all the love on this video!! Quick thing: if you're coming here to comment "where are [insert characters]?", please don't!! This is *not* every queer animated kiss to ever occur, these are just the ones I know!! Show/movie recs are welcome, but please don't come in angry/confused that your favs aren't here!!
So you had heartbreak (and if I'm honest a bit of frustration though The Dragon Prince generally rules otherwise) to euphoria back to back at the end? Nicely done. Also at least The Dragon Prince has Amaya and Janai to fall back on.
aha yeah, Annika and Neha are kind of bittersweet, and i think it could've been handled better, but they really redeemed themselves later on with Janaya and Terry being trans, plus there's still hope for Runaan and Ethari! having that scene next to the Bumbleby scene just sort of happened, but I'm glad it turned out well :))
@@gaycartoons Yeah I know they bow out like champs fighting the Dragon King. Still, even in works I otherwise like or even love, I hate the Bury Your Gays trope to the point that I never want to see an LGBTQ+ character killed off in a work of fiction again. Honestly I'd have it globally criminalised if I could.
@@Insomniaaron haha yeah, i hate it too. i think there might be a place for the odd death, like when they've grown old with their partner and die happily, but there's been so much hurt and trauma around the trope that anything other than that should just be shelved for the time being. maybe one day we can reach a place again where queer characters can die occasionally without it feeling like a betrayal, but we're not there yet.
@@gaycartoons I suppose. Still even as someone who isn't really LGBTQ+ I don't know if I can ever not see that trope as a betrayal or annoyance at the very least. In other words I don't believe I can ever truly accept LGBTQ+ characters being killed off in any capacity ever or be the villain.
As someone who has barely seen the Owl House I can tell you that animation got me choked up. The writing and delivery of the lines is so cute and wholesome and perfectly encapsulates the awkwardness of the moment after the first kiss. That's top their right there, it's subtle but powerful. But for me She-ra takes the rainbow cake and eats it because one I have the context but two it's just so damn good how they built this scene. The words are so simple but they carry so much weight to them that the series has been building up to. Wich I imagine you could say is the same for the Owl House (when I get there I'll probably feel the same).
Yes to so many of these. - BB stands at the top cause I've been following and loving RWBY for going on 10 years loving the slowburn romance - Bubbline is definitely in the camp of I'm glad to have caught it when it was catching steam, thus missing the homophobic shoving either of them towards a male interest - Catradora are stressful just cause of the gayngst xD - Sammy/Yaz are the newest and if being honest wasn't sure they'd actually do it; but they did - Harlivy are my more wild (in terms of sexuality and humor styling) fav; the V-day special ending hit me right in the feels. - Benson and Troy are cute, though Kipo is such an under-known series - I still need to catch up on Dragon Prince to fully enjoy Amaya/Janai (and the others too probably, but these are the two I've seen clips of and the chemistry of) but they are def cute.
LITERALLY JUST STARTED WATCHING ADVENTURE TIME AND IM CRYING WHAT EVEN IS THIS SHOW “Alright, let me just add 3 more drops of explosive diarrhea-“ *explodes*
Okay, this video literally cheers me up idk how to explain it, but i feel more comfortable about being bi when watching those videos, and this is so adorable 😭
I'm a middle-aged cishet man and even I can't help but flap my arms and go "EEEEEEEEEEEEEE" when watching these clips. Except for the marriage proposal. That one I was going "YES YES YES YES YES OHMYGOD IT'S HAPPENING"
Honestly I need to watch whatever show that was because I was screaming at almost 12 in the morning “OH DEAR LORD, POPCORN, I NEED POPCORN” and “WHY CANT THIS HAPPEN TO MEEEEEE”
I literally cried watching this, It's so good to feeling represented and in such lovely way. A hug for all my lgbtq+ fellows from a saphhic girl, love u!❤
@@twobats meh, to each their own then I guess. I'm still an AH fan, RWBY fan, and RT fan (though with full understanding of them being a corp). At least that's better than the 50 bad faith biased garbage "reasons" certain ones hurl at the show.
Gotta love how extra Yang and Blake and Adora and Catra were about it. One kissed literally in another world as said world changed in reaction to them and the other saved the world by being gay.
I honestly respect Rubi for how long it took to get Blake and Yang to come together, they didn’t rush and they didn’t cave into fan pressure, they took their time which led to a much more satisfying and adorable scene. Now, please give us an ending to this awesome series!
Yes I loved the show! And Yasammy's story was beautifully done, didn't think they'd actually get together, at first I thought it was gonna be a case of queer baiting, so I screamed like a pterodactyl when they kissed out of excitement.
because artsy gays are the best at making LGBTQ content, and the cartoons are made by artsy gays, while most movies movies are made by capitalist heteros
I don't know why, but I find queer couple kisses more adorable than straight couple kisses. Maybe because they're not shown as much? Either way, I'm not complaining. It's just so cute!!! They all just genuinely love each other. It's beautiful!
I loved all these moments and kisses. As a bisexual male, it’s so amazing seeing more and more MLM couples every day it’s so validating to me, and it makes me feel wonderfully seen. But I’m also ecstatic about seeing WLW and sapphic romances, and how they have also flourished in media. Watching She-Ra was truly a joy, and it was a great show. The Catradora scene at the end of the series was so worth it, and it was a fun journey all the way until the end. But out of all of these shows, nearly all of the anime I have watched, nearly all of the movies I’ve seen… Hardly anything even begins to hold a candle to RWBY, and how it has shaped me, how it has helped me be better, how it has inspired me to keep going. I have been watching RWBY ever since I saw the death battle involving Yang Xiao Long and Tifa, back in 2015, during the release of Volume 3. I thought Yang Xiao Long was such a fucking badass character. Her powers, her fighting style. Her loud and brash personality was funny as hell. She was a incredible character, and I hadn’t even seen the franchise she belonged to. So I made the decision to check the show out for myself. The moment I pressed play on Volume 1, Episode 1, I was immediately sold. The weapons, the lore, the character designs, the characters themselves. It was all perfect. Volume 1, Episode 1 and Volume 1, Episode 2 introduced a ton of characters. From the energetic, nerdy and weapons-obsessed Ruby Rose, to the dorky mess of a faker (completely non derogatory) Jaune Arc, to the calm and collected Ozpin. There are so many characters that I loved right off the bat that I would be here forever if I listed them all. Yang Xiao Long, of course, was at this time, my favorite character and remains my favorite to this day. She was everything the Death Battle put her up to be. A gigantic goofball. It wasn’t until a ways until episode 2, however, that I first saw my second favorite character in the series, Blake Belladonna. I hadn’t watched the trailers before I hopped into the show, (I rectified my mistake later, I highly regret my oversight), so when I saw Blake Belladonna, she immediately caught my attention. She had a very different design from the rest of everyone, and she gave off a mysterious and positive vibe that kept me continually interested in her. When Yang and Blake first interacted with eachother, I paused the episode, and said aloud to myself, “Yang and Blake are totally going to be a couple. And I am all here for it.” And I shipped them together ever since. As I continued to watch RWBY, my love for the show grew exponentially. Every episode i saw was better than the last. Yang and Blake were both fantastic, fascinating and multi-leveled characters, that I personally look up to. The dynamic and chemistry between Yang and Blake never faltered, never wavered. It always caught my attention, and I was always cheering for Bumbleby, the ship, the duo, and the bike (LOL), and then everyone else. (I love everyone in the show dw 😂) As I may have mentioned earlier, RWBY helped me throughout the absolute worst portions of my life. It, and two other franchises, helped drag me out of my depression more times than I can possibly count. Bumbleby was one of the things in RWBY that helped me the most, besides the characters themselves, the awesome story and the epic fight scenes. So you can imagine how I feel about volume 9 (A fucking incredible volume) and especially the moment where Yang and Blake finally confessed their love for eachother, and then proceed to embrace eachother in a tear-jerkingly magnificent kiss. I couldn’t stop myself from crying. Multiple times. That’s how much that perfect moment meant to me. That’s how much RWBY means to me.
aww it's always great to hear people talk about how much shows mean to them!! i love all these pairings too. i haven't been a rwby fan for nearly as long (i only got into it last year) but i loved that scene sm too, i love Blake and Yang and i love Bumbleby sm!
she's definitely protective, but i wouldn't really call that a death stare? she's just watching Luz, and then looking a little sad bc she knows they don't have much time to just be together bc the world is basically ending.
I never new the first ones were cannon! I stopped watching Adventure time(idk if its the same show, but i suppose it is, lolz), long, long ago, and saw so little of them! I'm so disappointed I never saw that. Thats why i was always so confused at the male version of them dating, i was like, wtf, i love it.
yeah, me too!! there should be more mlm rep in cartoons for definite, (i think live action has a lot more, though), but it's great to see how far we've come!
We aren’t there yet but we’ve come a long way from me being woken up by my roommate frantically texting me that korrasami was canon where they just hold hands and walk into the light as well us getting excited at the queer undertones of Steven universe before the devs could officially show anything.

In my experience, good romances work when you prioritise how well the characters work together regardless of gender.

The Lumity scene was so well-animated. I don’t know if it’s just me, but does the animation in it feel more fluid? I dunno, but it has to be one of my favorites, along with Catradora.
yeah, i think a lot of people have said that about the animation!! i love both those scenes too :)
In some of the more complex scenes the animation is smoother/fluid, including the kiss scene!
I noticed that they used the best animators for fight scenes and that scene lol
I think they got Mr. James Baxter for that scene.
Funny how two of them are between a blonde with really pretty and wild hair that lights up when she gets stronger and a catgirl who used to have long dark hair but recently got a shorter haircut, and they both kiss in a situation where their love is literally what gets them out of it.

haha they're really the definition of a slowburn. worth the wait tho.
The fun thing is to rewatch the series and see the little clues being dropped very early on. Such a well done slow burn romance. I'm showing a friend the series for the first time, and I'm waiting to see when they first ask me about BMBLB. I mean, at this point they should know my proclivity to delight in strong sapphic romances.
oh yeah, i'm rewatching rn and just noticing all these details again!
you think that’s bad? i have to wait 8 years for adrien and marinette to kiss!!! edit: AND FIVE SEASONS
Can we appreciate the fact that before almost all of the kiss scenes they hug so sincerely?
ikr, they're so cute
I'm so so glad Janai and Amaya were included here
of course!! they're criminally underrated, i love them sm!!
the she-ra kiss is so magical to me because it was such a disney moment where the universe was saved by a kiss. it’s something that i’ve always wanted!
plus the series pretty much revolved around adora and catra’s traumas and development. ugh i might do a rewatch soon
aww yeah spop is so brilliant and important! the kiss was really the whole big dramatic true love's kiss trope, and queer people barely ever get that, it made me so happy!
I'm just sitting here watching this with a huge smile on my face and tears streaming down my face I'm so happy we're getting recognition Love to all my LGBTQIA people's. I'm bisexual and proud of it. And yo everyone else you are valid you are beautiful you matter so much 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
aww i'm so happy this made you happy!! you're valid and beautiful too
@@gaycartoonsif people want people to respect each other why dont they accept themselves
because people internalise the harmful sentiments society throws at them. struggling with internalised queerphobia directed towards yourself and being a queerphobic asshole to others are not the same thing, and it's harmful to equate them.
IM BI TOO 🎉
Thank you for including Blake and Yang!
of course!! i love them sm :)
@@gaycartoons Which show are they from?
@@zacharyyamashita8554 from RWBY !
Bro I CRIED when Bumbleby became canon. I’ve waited YEARS for it to happen 😭😭🐝🫶🫶
aww yeah i love that scene sm!
When I was like 9 I couldn’t watch kissing of any two characters without physically dying, now I can casually watch She-Ra, Dragon Prince, Owl House, Dead end, and frickin’ Heartstopper and be like “That’s nice, anyways does anyone have popcorn I know this kiss scene is gonna last at least 7 seconds”
👌
okay fair enough haha. kiss scenes aren't for everyone anyways, and that's valid :)
Thank you so much for putting the Bumbleby kiss from RWBY on here! Blake and Yang are my favorite animated characters!! 🖤💛🐝
of course!! i love them sm :)
as a lesbian in my 20s, who struggled to accept that even with a supportive family and lgbt+ relatives... i am so glad that these future generations get to have this
me too!! it's amazing that kids will get to grow up with rep like this
@@ignaciollamas282 why are YOU watching this video 🫵🤨🏳️🌈 ?
@@ignaciollamas282 because i'm a colossal homo
Hey everyone, thanks sm for all the love on this video!! Quick thing: if you're coming here to comment "where are [insert characters]?", please don't!! This is *not* every queer animated kiss to ever occur, these are just the ones I know!! Show/movie recs are welcome, but please don't come in angry/confused that your favs aren't here!!
Suggestion for next one if you haven't done it already (and if it's in the show): Korra and Asami
EDIT TO ADD: Legend of Korra
@@Salt_Master_Queue Sadly, they never kissed in the show. Most we got out of them was hand holding.
@@Salt_Master_Queue yeah, i love them sm! sadly, they didn't kiss in the show (just the comics), so i couldn't include them here :)
i have a feeling cleo x frankie will eventually be added here since they already had a romantic episode from g3
@@EliteTacoNinja shoot.
So you had heartbreak (and if I'm honest a bit of frustration though The Dragon Prince generally rules otherwise) to euphoria back to back at the end? Nicely done.
Also at least The Dragon Prince has Amaya and Janai to fall back on.
aha yeah, Annika and Neha are kind of bittersweet, and i think it could've been handled better, but they really redeemed themselves later on with Janaya and Terry being trans, plus there's still hope for Runaan and Ethari! having that scene next to the Bumbleby scene just sort of happened, but I'm glad it turned out well :))
@@gaycartoons Yeah I know they bow out like champs fighting the Dragon King. Still, even in works I otherwise like or even love, I hate the Bury Your Gays trope to the point that I never want to see an LGBTQ+ character killed off in a work of fiction again. Honestly I'd have it globally criminalised if I could.
@@Insomniaaron haha yeah, i hate it too. i think there might be a place for the odd death, like when they've grown old with their partner and die happily, but there's been so much hurt and trauma around the trope that anything other than that should just be shelved for the time being. maybe one day we can reach a place again where queer characters can die occasionally without it feeling like a betrayal, but we're not there yet.
@@gaycartoons I suppose. Still even as someone who isn't really LGBTQ+ I don't know if I can ever not see that trope as a betrayal or annoyance at the very least. In other words I don't believe I can ever truly accept LGBTQ+ characters being killed off in any capacity ever or be the villain.
i was so happy when i saw yaz and sammy kiss the first time and it made me even happier to see it in this video!
aww yeah, i love that scene sm!
As someone who has barely seen the Owl House I can tell you that animation got me choked up. The writing and delivery of the lines is so cute and wholesome and perfectly encapsulates the awkwardness of the moment after the first kiss. That's top their right there, it's subtle but powerful. But for me She-ra takes the rainbow cake and eats it because one I have the context but two it's just so damn good how they built this scene. The words are so simple but they carry so much weight to them that the series has been building up to. Wich I imagine you could say is the same for the Owl House (when I get there I'll probably feel the same).
aww yeah i love the toh one!! and the spop scene is so goddamn beautiful, i'll never get over it
THAT LAST ONE WAS SO BEAUTIFUL I ALMOST CRIED
Aww yeah I love it too!
Yes to so many of these.
- BB stands at the top cause I've been following and loving RWBY for going on 10 years loving the slowburn romance
- Bubbline is definitely in the camp of I'm glad to have caught it when it was catching steam, thus missing the homophobic shoving either of them towards a male interest
- Catradora are stressful just cause of the gayngst xD
- Sammy/Yaz are the newest and if being honest wasn't sure they'd actually do it; but they did
- Harlivy are my more wild (in terms of sexuality and humor styling) fav; the V-day special ending hit me right in the feels.
- Benson and Troy are cute, though Kipo is such an under-known series
- I still need to catch up on Dragon Prince to fully enjoy Amaya/Janai (and the others too probably, but these are the two I've seen clips of and the chemistry of) but they are def cute.
Yeah I wish there was more Kipo! :'D
@@DreamVisitor-jk7cr Same, but I guess it was good that they got to end it how they wanted to. The ost for that show is so good
i love all these couples sm too

LITERALLY JUST STARTED WATCHING ADVENTURE TIME AND IM CRYING WHAT EVEN IS THIS SHOW
“Alright, let me just add 3 more drops of explosive diarrhea-“ *explodes*
lmao yeah adventure time is WILD. but there's a lot of great stuff in there too!
There’s something about the girl proposing in sign language that just fills my heart
I love that scene too! the characters are Janai and Amaya from The Dragon Prince :))
Okay, this video literally cheers me up
idk how to explain it, but i feel more comfortable about being bi when watching those videos, and this is so adorable 😭
aww that makes me so happy to hear! you deserve to feel comfortable with yourself, and i'm super honoured to have helped in any way
@@gaycartoons why are you so nice and precious- thank you😭
I'm a middle-aged cishet man and even I can't help but flap my arms and go "EEEEEEEEEEEEEE" when watching these clips.
Except for the marriage proposal. That one I was going "YES YES YES YES YES OHMYGOD IT'S HAPPENING"
glad you liked it! i do that watching these shows too haha
Honestly I need to watch whatever show that was because I was screaming at almost 12 in the morning “OH DEAR LORD, POPCORN, I NEED POPCORN” and “WHY CANT THIS HAPPEN TO MEEEEEE”
It feels so surreal to finally see Bumbleby in one of these compilations. God, I’m so emotional 😭
aww yeah, i love them sm!
Animation and cartoons have come so far since the 90's. I love to see this
yeah, me too! it's awesome :)
2:08 SWEET POTATO OMGGGGG
yeah it's so adorable!!
I literally cried watching this, It's so good to feeling represented and in such lovely way. A hug for all my lgbtq+ fellows from a saphhic girl, love u!❤
awww, sending a hug back
Ive been waiting 10 yrs for that bumblebee kiss so glad it got featured here :3€
aww yeah i love it sm!
I've been waiting for YEARS for bumble to finally become cannon! I'm so happy! :D
i haven't been waiting as long bc i only got into rwby last year, but it makes me really happy too!
Everyone else’s kissing scenes: sweet and romantic
Netosha and spinerellas:
*I C E B A L L*

lmao yes
This video makes me so unbelievably happy. Thank you for making this edit!
aww you're super welcome!! glad it made you happy :)
2:52 Rayla being an NPC in the background:
lmao yes
I'm straight, but all of this LGBTQ+ representation is amazing.
this is the right reaction from a non-queer person, thank you
Love you 🥹
aww
seeing bumbleby finally kiss after giving up on rwby as a show is like seeing an old friend on the street and seeing how happy they've become
Will never understand "giving up on RWBY" as a 10 year fan that has never wavered in love for the show.
@@CrimsonXE my love for the show wilted when my love for RT did. I was a big achievement hunter fan and watching any RT projects now just hurts
@@twobats meh, to each their own then I guess. I'm still an AH fan, RWBY fan, and RT fan (though with full understanding of them being a corp). At least that's better than the 50 bad faith biased garbage "reasons" certain ones hurl at the show.
aww yeah that scene is great!! it's such a shame Rooster Teeth sucks (i mean, i guess most companies do, tbh, but still)
Yeah, I just try to enjoy the show and ignore all the RT drama.
Both Lumity & Bumblebee had Lilies, a symbol of sapphic love
yeah!! both those scenes are so pretty omg
When I first heard Luz call Amity sweet potato I literally almost cried and screamed
ahaha yeah it's adorable :)
Gotta love how extra Yang and Blake and Adora and Catra were about it. One kissed literally in another world as said world changed in reaction to them and the other saved the world by being gay.
Also in BB's case the world literally going "okay, legit everyone knows you two have a thing so just get on with it!" (semi-joke) xD
haha yeah, both very iconic!!
5:38 THE DINOSAUR SHOW IS GAY!? YES! YES A BUNCH! YES TENBILLION! HOW’D I MISS THIS!?
haha yes it is!! it's pretty gay from the start but becomes canon in season 5, so if you haven't watched that season yet, that's probably why :)
5:21 there is no way the writers weren’t making a sex joke
not sure about that, but maybe
7:07 ahhh this scene made me and my girlfriend(❤️❤️❤️❤️) cryyyy tysm for posting this❤️❤️❤️❤️
aww you're welcome!! it made me so emotional too
I honestly respect Rubi for how long it took to get Blake and Yang to come together, they didn’t rush and they didn’t cave into fan pressure, they took their time which led to a much more satisfying and adorable scene. Now, please give us an ending to this awesome series!
yeah, I agree! I do think we could've got *some* more content earlier, but it was nice to see them persevere with an effective slowburn :)
My reaction: hehehehehe gay people
Also my reaction: WHY AM I STILL SINGLEEEE
oof relatable haha
I’m glad Camp Cretaceous got it’s deserved attention ❤ That scene made me cry ngl
aww yeah it's super underrated!!
@@gaycartoonsliteral facts I loved CC
Yes I loved the show! And Yasammy's story was beautifully done, didn't think they'd actually get together, at first I thought it was gonna be a case of queer baiting, so I screamed like a pterodactyl when they kissed out of excitement.
Ben and Kenji should have been a couple to 🙁
@@sullymcdaniel4901don't think that's gonna happen any time soon
When I saw Amity’s sibling I freaked out thinking WAIT THIS WASN’T IN THE SHOW then I remember
lmao
IT WAS
i cried tbh. i'm a gay trans man and the representation is so so beautiful
aww yeah, agreed! glad you liked it
Same
why do cartoons always do this better than movies?
because artsy gays are the best at making LGBTQ content, and the cartoons are made by artsy gays, while most movies movies are made by capitalist heteros
idk!!
I don't know why, but I find queer couple kisses more adorable than straight couple kisses. Maybe because they're not shown as much? Either way, I'm not complaining. It's just so cute!!! They all just genuinely love each other. It's beautiful!
lol yeah i agree tbh. i think we've just been underrepresented for so long that it feels more special! i love them all sm too :)
6:37 we will miss you, your majesties
we will!!
When you showed Yaz and Sammy, I literally screamed... ❤❤❤❤
aww yeah i love them too :)
I always enjoy those cheesy love stories. Especially when you get those epic “love on the battlefield” scenarios.
me too!
I GOT SO EXCITED SEEING BARNEY AND LOGS :D
valid, they're so cute!
I loved all these moments and kisses. As a bisexual male, it’s so amazing seeing more and more MLM couples every day it’s so validating to me, and it makes me feel wonderfully seen.
But I’m also ecstatic about seeing WLW and sapphic romances, and how they have also flourished in media.
Watching She-Ra was truly a joy, and it was a great show. The Catradora scene at the end of the series was so worth it, and it was a fun journey all the way until the end.
But out of all of these shows, nearly all of the anime I have watched, nearly all of the movies I’ve seen…
Hardly anything even begins to hold a candle to RWBY, and how it has shaped me, how it has helped me be better, how it has inspired me to keep going.
I have been watching RWBY ever since I saw the death battle involving Yang Xiao Long and Tifa, back in 2015, during the release of Volume 3.
I thought Yang Xiao Long was such a fucking badass character. Her powers, her fighting style. Her loud and brash personality was funny as hell. She was a incredible character, and I hadn’t even seen the franchise she belonged to. So I made the decision to check the show out for myself.
The moment I pressed play on Volume 1, Episode 1, I was immediately sold. The weapons, the lore, the character designs, the characters themselves. It was all perfect.
Volume 1, Episode 1 and Volume 1, Episode 2 introduced a ton of characters. From the energetic, nerdy and weapons-obsessed Ruby Rose, to the dorky mess of a faker (completely non derogatory) Jaune Arc, to the calm and collected Ozpin. There are so many characters that I loved right off the bat that I would be here forever if I listed them all.
Yang Xiao Long, of course, was at this time, my favorite character and remains my favorite to this day. She was everything the Death Battle put her up to be. A gigantic goofball.
It wasn’t until a ways until episode 2, however, that I first saw my second favorite character in the series, Blake Belladonna.
I hadn’t watched the trailers before I hopped into the show, (I rectified my mistake later, I highly regret my oversight), so when I saw Blake Belladonna, she immediately caught my attention. She had a very different design from the rest of everyone, and she gave off a mysterious and positive vibe that kept me continually interested in her.
When Yang and Blake first interacted with eachother, I paused the episode, and said aloud to myself, “Yang and Blake are totally going to be a couple. And I am all here for it.”
And I shipped them together ever since.
As I continued to watch RWBY, my love for the show grew exponentially. Every episode i saw was better than the last. Yang and Blake were both fantastic, fascinating and multi-leveled characters, that I personally look up to. The dynamic and chemistry between Yang and Blake never faltered, never wavered. It always caught my attention, and I was always cheering for Bumbleby, the ship, the duo, and the bike (LOL), and then everyone else. (I love everyone in the show dw 😂)
As I may have mentioned earlier, RWBY helped me throughout the absolute worst portions of my life. It, and two other franchises, helped drag me out of my depression more times than I can possibly count.
Bumbleby was one of the things in RWBY that helped me the most, besides the characters themselves, the awesome story and the epic fight scenes.
So you can imagine how I feel about volume 9 (A fucking incredible volume) and especially the moment where Yang and Blake finally confessed their love for eachother, and then proceed to embrace eachother in a tear-jerkingly magnificent kiss.
I couldn’t stop myself from crying. Multiple times. That’s how much that perfect moment meant to me.
That’s how much RWBY means to me.
aww it's always great to hear people talk about how much shows mean to them!! i love all these pairings too. i haven't been a rwby fan for nearly as long (i only got into it last year) but i loved that scene sm too, i love Blake and Yang and i love Bumbleby sm!
Thank you for sharing your experience. It's always very beautiful to hear about how much a piece of art can truly touch a person and imact their life.
4:23 THE POWER OF GAYNESS SAVED THEM OMG
haha yeah kind of
2:32 amity’s death stare is giving MAJOR overprotective girlfriend vibes
she's definitely protective, but i wouldn't really call that a death stare? she's just watching Luz, and then looking a little sad bc she knows they don't have much time to just be together bc the world is basically ending.
As a bisexual man I think it is for the better when queer representation gets as much attention as straight representation. Love is love 🏳️🌈
exactly :)
These are adorable.. like, REALLY adorable ☺️
The Dragon Prince, sign language one is lovely- I’m gonna go binge watch all these shows now 😙👍

I LOVE THAT SCENE SM!
I never new the first ones were cannon! I stopped watching Adventure time(idk if its the same show, but i suppose it is, lolz), long, long ago, and saw so little of them! I'm so disappointed I never saw that.
Thats why i was always so confused at the male version of them dating, i was like, wtf, i love it.
yeah it's Adventure Time! and omg yes, they are canon. definitely worth watching for them, even if you just watch their episodes :)
Im so happy and so proud of how far we've come!!! Sure I do miss lots of mlm presentation but LOOK at what weve acomplished!!! The future is bright!
yeah, me too!! there should be more mlm rep in cartoons for definite, (i think live action has a lot more, though), but it's great to see how far we've come!
This made me happy on a level I can’t explain
aww I'm so glad to hear it ❤️
We aren’t there yet but we’ve come a long way from me being woken up by my roommate frantically texting me that korrasami was canon where they just hold hands and walk into the light as well us getting excited at the queer undertones of Steven universe before the devs could officially show anything.
we have!! we should always thank the ships that got us here! we still have a long way to go, but it's great how much progress we've made.
I'm happy you added Camp Cretaceous!
Ofc!! Sammy and Yaz are so underrated :)
