RWBY Volume 9 Chapter 10 Reaction - Volume 9 Finale
#RWBY #RWBY9 #MurderofBirds - Розваги
I love how he basically went
"Hey it's Red Like Roses...
WAIT IT'S RED LIKE ROSES!"
Yea that was funny xD
Even this will be the day
Just leaving this here 14:04
Realization hittin and it hit HARD
Bro did a loony toon double take
I literally came here to check how others reacted to the song when they heard it.
The moment when you realize torchwick's final line is billy kametz' last recorded line before passing away
You’re fucking with me, that’s so sad, shit
Wait. Torchwick's VA died?
@Dj11o9er yes he passed away, and the torchwick in earlier chapters was someone else
He was also Dr. Maruki in Persona 5 Royal
& the Shield Hero in Rise of the Shield Hero
His loss was, and still is, quite tragic.
According to the wiki, Grey G Haddock voiced Torchwick originally and was changed in Icequeendom to Chris Wekkamp.
I love that little moment where Arnold just goes "Oh Red Like Roses..." before he suddenly realizes "RED LIKE ROSES?!?!"
Like "wait....What?!?!"
16:48 when Roman said “I’m not real” it made me think of Billy Kametz who was supposed to voice Roman but passed away before he could do it. He is listed as Roman in the credits still.
His death still hurts to this day. 😢
Wait he was supposed to replace the original instead?
@@wienersRus2023 yeah in Ice Queendom he was supposed to voice Roman and I guess he was to voice him RWBY as well. But him passing away in June of last year had them replace him again
Billy Kametz did voice some of Torchwick's lines in this volume.
That line WAS Billy Kametz.
“It will be alright Huntress”.
MY HEART!😭
The heart rarely forgets 😭
@@MurderofBirdsyou seem familiar....like happy dream i cannot remember 😢
Me too murder of birds do worry about it we will see season 10 of rwby at September 10 Trust me please 🙏 😀 😉 😊 🙂 😁 🌹💝
Not a lot of people point this out, but all the things on the table are things the Tree has worked on: all th completed ones are wooden sculptures... except for an unrefined pink crystal, that the blacksmith reaches for just as the screen whites out as Ruby leaves. That is absolutely representative of Neo, and the Tree getting to work on her as soon as she sends RWBYJ on their way.
The fact they showed her on the table makes me really hopeful we will see her again in some form. I just want something good and long-lasting for my favourite murderous criminal. Also, Imaginary Roman's comment at the end where he said "To have what they have..." shows that at her core she still just wants friends🥺
@@valdamjong "Not friends, family"
I just realized this tonight as well rewatching with a buddy of mine. He hadn't seen it. Hopefully she comes back with a fixed heart full pink hair and sporting a cane and parasol combo. Really really hope they don't change her into someone else. Just like Ruby I like her just the way she is.
@@valdamjong If Rooster Teeth keeps their Easter eggs, Neo will become Somewhat’s companion. After all, the Mouse and the Hare need a Hatter.
However, even if she doesn’t ascend like Ruby, she doesn’t have a bond with Remnant and can’t return. Somewhat and Juniper do have bonds, so if they don’t ascend again then they might become her return anchors, and the Tree can send them when they’re needed.
Volume 9 Episode 7: "There's a point where it tips, there's a point when it breaks, there's a point where it bends and a point we just can't take anymore..." (Time to say goodbye)
Volume 9 Episode 8: "There's a day when our hearts will be broken, and the shadow will cast out the light, and our eyes cry a million tears, help won't arrive" (I May Fall)
Volume 9 Episode 9: "This is the end, here's where you'll die, legends should scatter so just say goodbye" (All things must die)
Volume 9 Episode 10: "This will be the day we're waiting for, this will be the day we open up the door" (This will be the day)
In time, your heart will open minds, a story will be told, and victory is in a simple soul
There’s a light that shines, and it’s power is mine!
i didn’t pick them up in ep 8 and 9, but i caught 7 and 10
the leitmotif plays twice in this elisode
Only 10 episodes but CRWBY made them count. Each one was an experience.
Fun fact: With all the parts combined, V1 is actually 10 episodes long as well.
And with that This Will Be The Day motif at the end... We've come full circle😊
@@MaxusFox23❤❤❤ the ballad ver of this will be the day
Quality over quantity. Each episode was memorable in a way to keep things going and fresh which I can’t say for past volumes. Was so worried by the only 10 episode thing, but they made it work so well.
The fact that the last musical chord in the volume is "this will be the day" hits me so hard
Team RWBY and Jaune’s friends: “Where have you guys been?”
Team RWBY and Jaune: *Boy do we have a story for you*
Edit: All those airships over Vacuo showed that Ruby's call for help in Vol 8 worked. Cannot wait to see how that plays out in Vol 10
Oh yes especially jaune
@@msk-qp6fn I really hope Nora and Ren notice he has those white streaks in his hair
So the world really knows about Salem now. Since they know a whole Kingdom was destroyed by Salem (Atlas). Still wondering how the Atlas ships got there. Atlas was destroyed. So unless they had a lot at other places then they shouldn’t be there. They didn’t really help in Atlas anyways though tbh lol. The Tempest made short work of them. So if Salem brings a whole army to Vacue like she did at Atlas then the ships want matter.
@@ventustbb3229 V8 has a console interface that actually shows a couple ships survived. It's hard to notice and not really in the forefront with Ironwood taking the center of the scene.
Yang: Also, me and Blake are dating!
Sun: What!?
Raven and Tai: WHAT!?
Kali and Ghira: *WHAT!?* 🤩
Nora: Knew it!!!!
"Red like roses.... WAIT" love that part
Same 😂😂
Ruby Rose has accepted herself and now the wait for Volume 10 begins.
Indeed
inb4 next upcoming 3 years heh
@@HemisphereCinema don't even joke about that.
The ending and ballad ver of this will be the day was super heartwarming for me ❤❤❤
@@pauljordan0203 Eureka.... don't joke about that.
My favorite thing about this volume
Something I commented in Phoenix/Night’s video
A simple act of kindness
A smaller, more honest soul
Little/Somewhat is Ruby but for the Ever After.
The Cat did a full Akechi cycle for me. Started from not trusting, to loving, to hating then finally feeling sorry for the poor boi😢
Just like him he was rigged from start
How appropriate they are both voiced by the same person then.
Speaking of which are we not gonna talk about the fact that team rwby did a whole ass showtime finisher 😮 like bro that was clean as hell
@@mastergamingdude6191 I don’t think anyone “Saw it coming”😆
The Brothers are cruel :(
I’m amazed at the amount of people that wanted Ruby to abandon who she is and become someone else, essentially forgetting everything she knows.
She chose to remain true to herself, and accept her shortcomings, also accepting that failure is a part of success. She chose herself, and that’s more powerful than becoming something unfamiliar.
I mean, they kinda were hinting at that for the entire volume just for it to finally happen and then she chose.....to be herself. So in the end it was all this teasing and build up for a nothing burger.
@@Not_Ciel nah it was more like the fans were hoping it would happen. They made clear from the beginning that she didn’t need to change, but rather she need to recognize and overcome her own self doubt. That she placed just as much burden on herself as others put onto her.
Blowing all that off and becoming something else just because you can’t handle it is weak. Sacrificing who you are and what you stand for out some misguided sense of “failure” is cowardice.
Remember the “fear” monologue from V7. It still hold major relevance to the decisions everyone made this volumes. If you think nothing came out of Ruby’s decision, you missed the entire point of the volume.
I don't mind the message. I have a trouble how it is just like "Oh yea. mom said that"...
It feels kinda weird. Would have preferred if Ruby had a talk with each "Model" she had, until we reach V1 or even kid ruby who convinced her, that she was not wrong to try.
This way it feels too much "Deus Ex Summer"
@@FlaschenJoe11 Thats how a mother’s love is, its not just some trope either. 🤷🏻♀️
Most fans, me included wanted her to accept herself while also needing to understand and accept the consequences of what they had done to Atlas.
I like how Summer bumped into Raven when walking passed her after calling her out for leaving Ruby and Yang.
I immediately thought of when Yang bumped past Raven at the end of Volume 5 and Raven broke. I feel like that reminded her of this moment. (Edit: Corrected Chapter to Volume...Not sure where my head was.)
Now I'm curious if Raven thought of this moment when Yang did that
Honestly I'm surprised CRWBY remembered Raven was their mom.
Slight correction, her leaving yang, ruby wasn't born yet.
that dynamic is so interesting, I hope we get more. Raven is sick, regardless of how she was handled in her volumes. I really hope she comes back. would love to see her again.
When ruby burst out that tree and started fighting I was hype I’ve never seen her fight like that true main character vibes
Its still not as good as monty’s fights but its getting closer
I would be happy if someone clipped that scene for us 😊
@@AskEndy lookup ruby vs cat vol 9 final fight
Just realized how similar juniper(?) is to the god of creation’s first form
Probably designed as an amalgamation of Yakul Yakul and the Forest God from Princess Mononoke.
I cried so bad when they arrived in Vacuo and "This Will Be The Day" started on that guitar... just absolute props. Massive tears were shed over this. Cant wait for Volume 10!!
Somewhat's look will forever warm my heart. The hair, the belt, the cape...that is all Ruby's influence on Little manifested. Also love the fact that the cape is maple leaf shaped for the Tree. And yo, Somewhat is now Reepicheep if yall know what I mean.
Oh wow, I never realized before that Somewhat could be inspired by Reepicheep (whether it was intended by the writers or not). If so, that's such a cool nod.
Why does this make me wish for a Narnia x RWBY crossover fic more and more?
Not only that but Jaune was terrified that the Paper Pleasers would dissolve in water and after they did, they came back as gems so that they are immune to water. That was Jaune's influence on them too. Those little details are really neat.
What the cat said to Ruby, he was unknowingly talking about himself. He is broken and breaks everything he touches.
There was a lot of that going on this volume.
what exactly did the cat break? He tried to wear down both Jaune and Alyx, and it didn't work, and he tried to use Ruby but she was broken by her own trauma and lack of ability to cope with it
@@thatrainbowquickie8395 Trust, Friendship, these can be broken
@@thatrainbowquickie8395 The Cat also “broke”/killed Alyx.
@@thatrainbowquickie8395 the Cat also broke the system of the Ever After right after he sent Hawker to his death.
Roman being my favourite character hurts so much when he says: "Im not real". At their scene I will always shed a tear. So good. I just hope Neo finds herself a new purpose and comes back kicking Cinders butt .
Nice channel icon yo
I just hope Neo will summon the illusion of people that Cinder killed
It hurts even more, because that line was voiced by Billy Kametz.
8:10 This particular scene is one that has caught my attention lately. Summer and Tai look both physically and dynamically like Ruby and Jaune, and the parallels this scene draws with another important scene from V6 involving Ruby and Jaune is just brutal.
Which one?
@@animalia5554Probably the one when they reunite in Atlas. Jaune was worried she wouldn't return and Ruby was reassuring him that of course she would.
I wont lie guys, if at the end of this journey they do end up together it just wasnt set up properly or at all for that matter, but thats if thats the case i guess we'll see, maybe i sure hope it gets a proper ending
@@justhaku9240 I just rewatched all of RWBY and I feel that Volume 5 would have been the perfect time to make them canon but seeing that Juane was still dealing with Pyrrha's death in V4 even throughout V5, it wasn't the best time. They had so many moments from V4-V6 but it can also be seen as a love through friendship and a team leader bond. They have gone through a lot together and as much as I was shipping them until this past Volume, I still consider them soulmates in a way.
@@lindseyaguilar3134 fair enough
I cant believe just 4 months ago I was saying I hope it gets a proper ending and now it's over, im so sad rn I literally just rewatched rwby before the news
I love how when they land after falling through the door they all land properly and carefully, with knees bent just the right amount, no crazy superhero landings. And since they don't know how fast they're falling before they land they're careful about it. Nice touches and so much detail in this volume. This series is getting more and more detailed, it's so beautiful.
The good ol landing strategy haha
The beautiful sync of "This'll be the day" at the end was phenomenal
yeah that floored me. legit made me tear up, i didn't think RWBY could do that to me anymore
even tho there’s no new rwby episode today at least there will be a murderofbirds reaction :)
Is the show over??
Ruby: "Don't underestimate me, for I am the good huntress Ruby Rose, child of the Remnant, former student of Beacon, and warrior of peace!"
NOW EAT THIS SUCKER!
Lol did you just did a Owl House reference?
NOW EAT THIS SUCKERRRRRRRR
“Now eat this sucka!”
Yes! Owl House baby!!!!! YEAH!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Volume 9 was an emotional rollercoaster of psychological themes and growth 😢 Tears welled up during Little's return and final farewell, Ruby and Jaune accepting their flaws, origins of the gods being revealed, the Cat's realization, and Neo choosing to remain in Ever After till the day she finds her resolve and ascend
...My prediction may not have been entirely accurate, but I still called it on Ruby finding a new resolve!
I wonder if Lewis is still alive back in Remnant. It would be a touching reunion when he sees Jaune again. I have a crazy idea that Lewis was probably the one who made Jaune's transcript to enter Beacon. Back in Volume 1, Jaune said he got his hands on some fake transcripts, but he never elaborated how he got it in the first place. What if it's intentional? What if it's the old Lewis who made the transcript so that Jaune can get to Beacon? That would be a shocking revelation. 🤔
Or what if Lewis was one of Ozpin's previous incarnations? Fairy tales...I've lived through my share of them.
@@paularonald8626 That was my theory too.
I love how 1v3 with just WBY, the cat was winning, 1v1 against Ruby, Ruby was winning. And 1v4, it took them like 10 seconds to beat the cat. Really shows just how absurdly good of a fighter Ruby is, when in top form against a monster.
That's cause Ruby has super speed. Speedsters are pretty OP if they are used to their full potential.
@@DarthDragon007 Not just super speed either. Dematerialization super speed. You can literally hit through her, and she'll be unphased.
Well that and ruby is midrange melee while yang is the only even mildly melee fighter. Yang would need to nearly lose to fight as strong as ruby does casually
@@DarthDragon007they’ve shown thats not her power in vol 8, her semblance is still in the dark mainly because she can carry people into her capeblur
@@nemasisdemarini8339dematerialization doesnt make sense as she repeatedly takes people with her and seems to control the splits, I believe shes also been hit out of it in either the ace ops or torchwick fights
This might be the last reaction from you covering RWBY, and if that the case (hopefully not) I just want to say thank you for getting me into this show. If it wasnt for your passionate reactions i would have never gotten into the show at all, so yeah thats all i wanted to say since the situation is still up in the air, but whatever happens lets all keep moving forward with an indomitable spirit!
I really hope that the characters actually grew from this adventure in the Ever After and it wasn't all for nothing. Mainly Ruby and Jaune. Ruby being more responsible with her choices and not dragging everyone along some crazy plan hoping things will go well just cause, and Jaune keeping all the experience he accumulated from the years he was stuck in the Ever After.
I’m actually sad that Jaune went back to his oldself, especially with the stupid banana hair again
I mean, based on the final shot of the volume, her plan did turn out pretty well lol
@@red7s156 No, no it did not. Her plan still led to the destruction of Atlas, the death of Ironwood and Penny, and countless more deaths from people who got stuck in the Vacuo desert before they were able to help the situation. She very much did not do that well.
@@sleepyllama3673 In all fairness, her plan actually would've worked pretty solidly had Cinder not come and fucked everything up, and even that was because she managed to figure out exactly what they were doing thanks to Jinn. That wasn't really something they could've prevented, and if that hadn't happened, I'm willing to bet that things would've have gone nearly as badly as they had.
Also, Atlas was going down either way. Even Ironwood's plan probably wouldn't have turned out very well in the long run - wasn't he just wanting to leave Mantle to die and raise Atlas higher until the immortal Grimm witch found a way to get his ass anyway? I don't think they'd have saved nearly as many people that way in the long term.
@@sleepyllama3673 Atlas was gonna be destroyed anyway, Irownwood's death was his own fault, and penny died cause she didn't just leave to vacuo like she should've, and if we wanna be real specific, cinder is the reason for her death. Stop trynna pin everything on ruby 🙄
The thing about Neo, as far as my interpretation goes, is that it's not that she doesn't want to not be herself, she just doesn't want to hurt anymore. And after seeing that Ruby came out of the whole ordeal seemingly better off, happier, it made her start to genuinely consider if it would be good for her to go through it as well. If Ruby hadn't come back as a better seeming version of herself, I don't think Neo would have even considered going to the tree as an option. After all, she was convinced that going to the tree would destroy Ruby, literally.
I'm not sure if you ever touched on this possibility in one of the livestreams I missed, but there's a theory going around that Alyx might have ascended into Juniper. We never see Juniper in any of the flashback scenes involving Alyx and Jaune, except that she happens to have an emblem on her waist of a rabbit that looks suspiciously like Juniper sans the antlers. In addition, the last thing she wanted to do before getting killed by the cat was going back to right the wrongs she committed, including helping a poisoned Jaune, and we heard him say that it was Juniper that brought him to the Paper Pleasers to be healed up.
The voice actor for Little/Somewhat is killing it here. I basically start tearing up at "It'll be alright, Huntress." and then they hit me with the "I will never leave her side." and I am gone. I came to this show for great fight scenes but I stay for the aggressive punches to my heart it keeps landing.
The way I got chills and instant tearing up when the red like roses part 3 scene started 😭 this show means so damn much to me and Ruby’s arc in this season in particular resonated with me on such a deep level. I don’t wanna dump a bunch but all I’ll say is that I can relate to Ruby’s struggles with the internal battles that the concept of ascension poses, both their initial misunderstanding of it (that it’s death) and the actual meaning (that it’s actually just changing).
When she wanted to ascend thinking that it would mean her death, that’s her becoming suicidal. When she wanted to ascend knowing it would mean she becomes someone else, that’s her thinking she’s not good enough/that she only makes things worse. I can relate to both issues, but in the end she chooses both to keep living, and to do so as own true self. Two choices I myself have had to make, and thanks to this season, I know I can make those choices again when I need to.
My favorite Monty Oum Quote:
“The goal isn't to live on forever; it's to make something that does.”
This quote means a lot to me as a writer and artist, but I think it applies to day to day life too. I think it’s easy to forget the major affects we and our memory can have on the people around us. Which is basically one of the main themes of this volume, as seen in Little and Ruby’s relationship. My greatest wish is that one day, I can inspire people like Monty did-like Monty still does.
This season really felt like a love letter to Monty, to the community, and to the show itself. A lot of it went over people’s heads IMO, which is sad, but this is one to those seasons where you need to watch it more than once to really GET it, or at least I know I had to. God. This season was amazing.
Whatever happened on that mission with Raven and Summer change Raven dramatically to the Raven we know now. If you think about it Raven wants to be as far away as possible from her family yet she has a semblance that can take her straight to them💀On the other hand, Qrow probably would love to be around his family yet he has a semblance that makes him nearly impossible to be around😢 Considering semblance & a persons personality has a connection maybe they had different personalities in their Youth or maybe switched them. Maybe Raven was the lovable one and Qrow the antagonistic one until Summer Died and they kinda switched it because of guilt or something like that. I use to think that Qrow could have been the cause of Summer's death with his Semblance by accident or Raven could have helped her instantly but failed to do so. But since we have the scene with Raven and Summer going on a secret mission Raven could have been part of the reason why she's dead. Maybe she was too stunned to move like Ruby was in EP 8 where the rest of team RWBY and Jaune was fighting the Jabberwalker's and watch Summer die. Raven isn't evil she's just broken.
Damn if only Qrow didn't team up with the scorpion dude (forget his name) against Clover and kill him. Too bad CRWBY needed an excuse to off him though.
@@Not_Ciel I'm sorry huh?! First off Crow had no intentions of killing him and second what does this have to do with my comment?
@@l0ki_lux947 because you said Qrow wants to be around his family but his semblance makes it to where he can’t. If he hadn’t teamed up with the dude that almost killed him a couple volumes before to kill Clover then he might have a shot of controlling or counterbalancing his semblance.
@@Not_Ciel thank you for elaborating
She likely encountered Salem alongside Summer, where she learned the true nature of Salem's immortality. Possibly after seeing Summer die, the knowledge that not even someone like Summer could defeat Salem is when her worldview changed.
The fact that a lot of reactors were more concerned about red like roses part 3 that they missed the fact that ruby got her emblem back
I actually went into this completely blind unlike most of the community, never saw any of the trailers or all of that. I do this every single season, & prefer it that way. Makes everything an actual surprise & get to analyze everything myself & only come back to talk to everyone in the community after I've finished watching the current season for theories & some discussions. I can't help but wonder what Neo is going to become & how she'll return.
Bro is pogging in the thumbnail
"You do feel familiar...like a happy dream I can't remember"😢
"You may bask in your powers of creation brother, but you do not own them." - God of Darkness to God of Light
What a great finale! I hope they greenlight Volume 10 soon! This was a fantastic Volume, and it shows how much CRWBY have grown over the years! I have no doubts that they would be able to produce an equally great Volume 10! And so, we now enter an exceptionally long wait until at least RTX!
Neo will come back with a voice, because the tree allows her to chose what she wants to become. And next time, she’ll side with Ruby. Or atleast, fully fight against Cinder.
I kind of hope she doesn’t come back with a voice. She is perfect without it. I can’t really say why, but it kinda seems insulting to the mute community for her mutism to be cured by a tree.
I hope she doesn’t come back at all. Her story is over.
@@randomguy7946e’ll probably see her again but it won’t be like a main thing or whatever bc like you said her story is basically over yeah
Im not interested in her coming back just to be killed of permanently like Penny. They just need to leave her in the Ever After. She should do the job of the Curious Cat & Jabber Walker now anyways. Since she killed both. Her new purpose can be that. Since she can make illusion’s to take their place basically.
@@zaaveme Maybe just a small cameo at the very end of the series. Like in the end credits or something.
14:04 a solid five seconds to realize Red Like Roses after saying it XDDDDD
The last scene where they finally got back to Vacuo, you can ACTUALLY HEAR “THIS WILL BE THE DAY”
Yeah,also when they were talking to the blacksmith
This volume was so good. I just wish it had been a little longer so we could let the writing flourish and flesh out the character dynamics. Really feel the weight of Ruby’s emotional journey, especially in the last two episodes
I adore how Somewhats design takes a little from Ruby with the cape and hair tufts
This Volume was a banger and this finale was sick af! Love seeing your reactions and hearing your thoughts Arnold!
“Wow you harmonize so well with yourself it sounds so good!-“
*They all start talking after the song and complete chaos starts*
“Oh- nvm 😂”
Lmao love your vids Arnold. Been watching you since your start of the RWBY journey and have watched RWBY, RvB and even tune into streams for Genshin here and there. You’re an amazing dude who struggles with anxiety and having trouble keeping to plan despite your best efforts, just like me.
Just know you’re only 1 guy and mistakes happen. But you made it this far, and you’ll double it before you know it. Keep it up ❤️
Hey, I don't really comment on anything but I just wanted to let you know that when I started watching this show with you I was in middle school, watching reaction videos to feel less alone, since it felt like I was watching with someone. Throughout the years, you have made watching this show one of my favorite things to do, laughing and crying as the show and the characters developed and grew with us. Now nearly a decade has passed and I am married and still come to your channel to watch RWBY with you, when I can find the time. Thank you for watching with me, and helping me to feel less alone during my darkest days.
I avoided watching this volume for the longest because I didn’t expect too much from it, ended up binge watching it in a day and wow did I enjoy it!! Im happy I decided to give it a chance 😊
Same! I binged watched this in about 2 days
14:38 this entire moment was complete nostalgia for me, the feeling of seeing combat from Ruby reminiscent of her trailer against the Werewolves. Switching from scythe to Sniper in a flash to incredible flourishes and deflects that in a weird way Earned that Musical number. I didn't think I was ever going to be overwhelmed with the Combat Choreography since volume 3, but I was pleasantly proven wrong. I can tell the animation team poured their heart out in every beautiful second of this and while the story might not have been everyone's cup of tea, this definitely made me smile.
The Cat legit looked like a dark souls boss
everyone notices red like roses but can we talk about the beautiful version of this will be the day as they arrive in Vacuo?
Ozcar: “It’s been 84 years…”
Isnt that from the boat movie?
@@msk-qp6fnNo way you just called the Titanic the “boat movie”
Crazy volume. The fact that the Brothers came from the Ever After makes a lot of sense
God the Arnold sing along at the end of volumes never get old. The chaotic talking into perfectly synced
Love Arnold's harmonizing with himself.
For that single moment in time it's controlled chaos
then every version of him starts talking lol
I know it has been 2 months already since this video was released
But did someone else notice that the way Ruby fights the cat, the moves she does, are the same than in her first trailer. Red Trailer
The Blacksmith really overwhelmed me a little I went "Ok slow down you're dropping a lot of Lore on us all at once and does mean you're a being of even greater power than the brothers".
Probably the first intro for a RWBY finally where he doesn't cry it feels weird 😂
Always love your reactions, this episode was awesome!
After the last few volumes, this was such a refreshing volume. Easily one of my favorites.
I have a feeling the Brothers were pretty clever when it came to making the Curious Cat, he can only overshadow someone when they are completely broken, empty, but when they are broken that completely they no longer have a tie to wherever they came from meaning he can't use them to leave the Ever After.
Salem
I dearly love this show I hope we get to see vol 10 soonish. And that the show reaches a natural conclusion.
It comes out when I'm just starting my new job noo 😭
Oh... oh my... I was already emotional at Little-Somewhat's ascension, but I realized they have a scarf-cape just like Ruby. So just like how Ruby models herself after her mother (her hero, in a sense), Little modeled themselves after Ruby (their model) when they ascended into Somewhat.
T_T Don't mind me being emotional about that.
that all out attack looked like it was right out of persona. funny being the cat is voiced by someone from P5 XD
I am so blown away by this season and your reactions are always so satisfying to watch. I look forward to it every time. Thank you for always sharing it with us! Really can't wait for Vol 10 now!
14:05 was SO FUNNY the "red like roses" and then the realisation it in fact red like roses.
I REALLY hope Volume 10 is as amazing as this great volume! It's been a journey watching Chapter 1 all the way up to 10, and people have been saying this is a filler Volume? We get to see Summer, STRQ, the former's weapon. EVERYTHING IS AWESOME! :D
And the ending to Team RWBY and Jaune making it to Vacuo is making me hype. I wondered what Shade Academy looks like, since I don't think we were introduced to the Academy yet, we saw Vacuoan Students, but not the Academy itself! And seeing the desert city up close when Volume 10 comes around will be amazing, I bet there will be amazing art when that time comes around! ^w^
I do hope that Neo returns in the future, since she is currently ascending in the EverAfter, perhaps we may see her making a return in the next volume helping RWBY and the rest dealing with CInder and Salem? Or maybe the main Antagonists is Tyrian and Mercury? Since they have been tasked and that task involves in Vacuo.
Overall. I'm HYPED and can't wait for Volume 10 and seeing your reaction to Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes and Huntsmen, Part 1 -and in the future, part 2- Arnold! :D May your and our Journeys lead us STARWARD! :3
((Also: Long comment. 0w0))

As yang would say it was a real catastrophe
I don't think the portal led to Qrow. If we look back to Ruby and Qrow's conversation in Amity Colosseum in Volume 7, it really seems like he doesn't know what happened. He thought she went on a mission for Oz, which is what she told Tai. But like Ruby said in this episode, Summer lied. It wasn't a mission for Oz. It was a mission she and Raven chose to set out on together for unknown reasons. So even Oz probably doesn't know what really happened. But Raven does.
Whatever happened to Summer, it may have happened right in front of Raven's eyes, leading to her attitude in Volume 5 - Salem can't be stopped, Salem can't be reasoned with, Raven knows *_people_* who come back from the dead, Ozpin's war is pointless. Those are all things she said in Volume 5. She even said to Qrow "All this time working for Ozpin and you _still_ have no idea what you're up against! There _is_ no stopping Salem!"
yep we only know of the portal locations that Raven told Tai, its very possible that Raven has/had others that she didn't share
My personal favorite for me this season is the curious cat, better saying his voice actor. He performed at such a high level but in this episode, he took the hat completely. His laughs while smoking the leaves, before attacking Ruby, its just wild, he stole the show :D Purrfect
Can't wait for this reaction, and can't wait for whats to come for RWBY and this channel :)
The choir of birds for the intro made my week. I love your videos so much.
Thank you for the 'pick me ups'!
honestly the only criticism i have of this volume is the pacing of episode 9. other then that impeccable stuff 9/10.
This volume was worth the wait 100%
This volume was incredible, I just wish they kept Jaune how he was... I hope CRWBY doesn't forget that he is like 38 now, and I hope he gets a new appearance, maybe grows a beard like he had in the ever after.
Also, who called tony the tiger? 12:30
It's there scheduled outfit change, volume-wise, and he still has grey streaks; the permanent physical reminder hopefully represents a permanent impact on his personality.
All this time I thought the 2 gods controlled everything but now since we know the tree created them, this changes everything! Maybe we can send Salem back to the ever after to save herself. Volume 10 is gonna be LIT!!
Tht whole point I been saying
Those puns were Cat-astrophic
Those were purr-fect
Litter-rally
Un-fur-getable.
It's been a blast for me and suppose for all of us. And thank you MurderofBirds. Without you doing these videos, this community would be a lot smaller. Hope to see more from you in future :)
Your gonna love this one
I think they really knocked it out of the park with this volume. the animation and music were on point and even though there weren't as many fights as there were in previous seasons each fight we did see was pretty impressive. The Bees finally becoming canon was a surprise too, but the following episodes caused me so much emotional damage. I'm glad that the season ended on such a positive and hopeful note, but I really hope volume 10 takes some time for team rwby to discuss what Ruby went through because damn that was rough to watch.
Man, i was waiting to see this reaction all week and it did not disappoint. Loved every minute of the finale, and then the wave of deep dark hit knowing how long we're going to have to wait for v10 (After its greenlit)
The cat's defeat reminds me a lot of how Envy and Father acted in Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood; both saw humans as weak and inferior creatures(I mean so did Wrath and Lust), yet for all their hubris, they themselves were inferior due to their own self-imposed ignorance of what makes humanity strong. Sure we have our flaws, but when we unite we can do some amazing stuff.
My only complaint with the fight was that it felt too short; I wanted mooooore (I be greedy) XD Still they nailed the visuals with the 1 v 4. Team RWBY beat their first big bad with no outside help.
maaaaaan the way this volume ended, made me almost tear up. now to wait till next volume :U
Thank you for all your content this rwby season Arnold! I had a lot of fun. Glad you're feeling better too :)
What a volume, I've being watching every RWBY reaction since age 9 when volume 3 happend. Yeah internet access was crazy for me. But anyways the years that this show has being going has had both it's triumphs and struggles. And it's amazing to finally be able to enjoy RWBY just like when I was 9. The amount of work that rooster teeth has done is amazing and I'm proud
A finale with a huge lore drop. So much to chew on. So many questions to theorize for the future. So much fanfiction that will be written...
*-Chapter 10: Of Solitude and Self*
-RWBY quote of the chapter
“I love you, just the way you are.” (Summer Rose)_
-Secret of the Rose
So Qrow's words to Ruby about the mystery of Summer's last mission is confirmed, with more to the story revealed. That Summer deliberately lied to Tai and requested her former teammate for assistance. And naturally, Summer is not on the best terms with Raven, far more so than Tai and Qrow. And that shove on Raven's shoulder, the same gesture Yang gave to her before she retrieved the first Relic.
Thinking back, it may be possible that Summer (and Raven) have travelled to the Ever After before and whatever Summer's plan is, it may be linked to it, needing Raven's portal Semblance to bring her there. And the last story Summer read to Ruby and Yang was the tale of the Ever After.
But it may also be a strong indication that Summer did in fact die, likely in the Ever After (or one of the spaces similar to the Relic rooms). Of all the weapons presented to Ruby, the only ones she recognized was Alyx' knife, one of Penny's swords, and Summer's weapon. And both Penny and Alyx are confirmed dead, with their weapons left (Alyx) or dropped (Penny) in the Ever After, so Summer's demise could have been linked with the Ever After.
Now the questions...
What was Summer's ultimate mission and fate? Could it had something to do with Salem? If Raven did in fact, teleport to the Ever After, how did she do that given the nature of her Semblance? Was there someone in the Ever After that Raven attuned to? Or did her Semblance evolve beyond that limitation and she simply didn't reveal it to anyone?
-Blossom Forth
In the end, she chooses to be herself, with her mother helping her in two ways. One, through her last words of encouragement, and two, her actions showed that she had her own burden to bear, so much so that she kept it secret from everyone as humanly possible, primarily from Ruby. Whatever that secret is, if Ruby took her mother's identity, she would also have to bear a burden she would not be able to bear at the moment, and likely for good reason. That may also the reason why all the other weapons were too heavy for her.
Personally speaking, while I wasn't expecting a massive change from her, I was hoping to something slight, like a physical mark or a slight change in demeanor or something. But then again, such changes should be gradual, as it is with growth. She is who she is; she just needed her confidence of self to be restored.
Which she did, in an epic and nostalgic fight with a subtle _Red Like Roses_ to complete the scene...
-A Graceful Exit
It's good to see Jaune take up the role of the strategist again, inspired by witnessing the illusion effects himself to use the fumes of the tree leaves against Curious in order to separate him from Neo, who in turn, used her power to slaughter the cat (not exactly the best way to die).
It would also be great if there would be a Neo short in the future concerning her background upon seeing both the portraits and the illusions of her family. And despite the terrible things she had done to the team (Ruby in particular), one can't help but feel sorry for her loneliness and hope that she'll be a better person when she emerges from the tree. Like Nora, she has to find out who she is without Roman.
If nothing else, that's one less threat to deal with, especially given her massive upgrade in Semblance...
-Leaving The Ever After
Such a sweet and tearful scene of seeing Little, now ascending into Something, saying his goodbye to Ruby and teaming up with Juniper, to whom Jaune also had to say goodbye to. Kind of hope there will be a short of some kind of their journey together in the Ever After. They may even have a fairy tale of their own.
The Mouse and The Deer...
Surprised that they didn't go straight to Remnant, but rather The Blacksmith's shop. Interesting also was that the Blacksmith addressed Jaune first, telling him about Alyx' fate and give. It is, in part, what Curious said about the difference between Afterains and the people of Remnant as regards death, that why Afterains are simply reborn (unless slain by the Jabberwaky), those in Remnant do die, but are capable of leaving a small part of themselves behind.
Also what is shown is that simple actions by those in Remnant have an even greater impact and change on the individuals of the Ever After than would be on Remnant. The kindness toward Little and the dishonesty toward Curious. Odd that Alyx' dishonesty was only because she wanted to fix the problems she had created and Curious was warped by it, not being concerned over reason so much as the act itself that changed him.
-Origin of the Brothers
Talk about a lore drop, that the brother gods not only originated from the Ever After, they were the first ones born there. Not too much of a surprise considering the world of RWBY, that many of the stories spoken are more true and historical than they know. And The Blacksmith explained that it was never a battle between two force, but balance and equilibrium, a trait seen not only by their physical appearance, but also shared by all their creations, primarily the people in Remnant.
More questions...
If they return back to the Ever After, where did the brother gods go? Is Remnant the only world they created, or did they go to create more, leaving Remnant on hold for the time being. Humanity was their masterpiece, but that doesn't mean that we would have stopped with their experiments. And what will happen when the Relics are collected? Pass or fail, will they return to the Ever After?
-Not where; when.
That last image alone leads to questions and thoughts for the future. How long were they there? I don't think it was a lengthy amount a time, but it would not be a surprised if it was a year or two. But long enough for the remains of the Atlas forces to be stationed over Vacuo. Not too a different scene from Beacon prior to the Fall. Has Salem made her move for the Relic there? And how much has their absence affected their friends?
So much fanfiction will be written on this alone...
I am so happy with this volume. No words to describe it. I sobbed so hard at the finale. Well done CRWBY!!
14:20 the little homage to the red trailer my heart ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I cant believe it's over already. It went by so fast and was such a great season. As someone thats been watching since the RWBY character trailers, I hope they continue to make seasons until they finish Monty's story.
My response to the revelation about The Brothers was literally “HOLY SH*T THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING!!!!” And yeah it really does. We knew they weren’t flawless infallible beings, but now as it turns out, the “Gods” weren’t Gods at all…….they’re more like children that were given a universe to play with……..can you imagine what Ozpin and Salem would do with this revelation?
Well to remnant they are still gods to all, considering they gave life and all that follows. The everafter however would label them as children with amazing abilities and gifts tho
I always wait for the finale primarily for the joint Intro singing from every episode, It just shows how much passion you have for this story.
Also when she ascends you can see that her movements are less wieghted because shes accepted her for her. I can't wait to see more.
hey arnold don’t know if you noticed but towards the end of the episode after they enter the door to go see the blacksmith this will be the day was playing lightly in the back ground as well as when they arrive at vacuo
I just binged the volume today dude and Jesus Christ I want volume 10 already 😭
I need to see the reactions of everyone when they see our girls (and jean lol) are okay. Going to be so fire.
The Cat being a victim just like everyone else hit me way too hard, man.
