RWBY - The Hindenburg on which Rooster Teeth rests its hopes, dreams and future

Not a big fan of Soul Eater either, but I wouldn't call it generic. It has its own style and a moderately unusual plot/setting. The issue it does have though is wanting you to get invested in a combat-centric plot and then divorcing most plot progression from combat. It also focuses overmuch on insanity/darkness power and never actually develops an interesting power system or specific set of abilities for any particular character. It was fun when it was mostly comedy in the beginning but it doesn't stick the landing when it tries to change to a series story.
It's good at keeping you invested in the first half, but down the line, you start to drift away.
 

Seems that all RWBY volumes will be able to be purchased to watch on: Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Fandango at Home, Microsoft Movies & TV, Google TV, and YouTube on April 15th.

So you guys should download all the Youtube uploads of episodes and clips while you still can before they start getting taken down.

Daily reminder that they made an entire season as an allegory to the 2016 election. The butthurt cannot be more palpable now.
Which season is that?

No the issue is that they are completely ignoring the horrific implications of an outside entity embedding its conscience onto your own and then slowly subsuming you completely, and they further fuck up by making Salem want to literally scour the planet free of all life which means that basically anything Oz does is justified since the stakes for failure is "total global extinction" and in the face of that is there really such a thing as "going too far" so long as any survivors can continue and rebuild?
You are incorrect on this only because the show flip flops on whether Salem really wants to kill everyone or just restart her God Kingdom or whatever
 
And just like that, CRWBY stopped being friendly with the FNDM.
Volume 8? It's either that or Vol 7. Both blend up into one volume in my head.
It was Volume 7, which premiered in late 2019, yet still tried to tackle the 2016 election.

Refresh my mind, because I only remember that Ironwood declared martial law and shot two councilmen (one of them a woman) who disagreed with him.

Robyn Hill, a Clinton allegory, runs for a council position against Jacques Schnee, a Trump allegory.

On the night of the election, the villains rig the election so Jacques wins even though it looked like Robyn was going to win.

In other words, it's what the Left believes happened in 2016 when Trump won the election despite not getting the popular vote.
 
I think the triple punch of Blake and Yang being stupid and telling Robyn about Ironwood's plan, combined with Qrow becoming the dumbest man alive and getting Clover killed, and Ironwood losing it and overreacting to Cinder stealing the Relic from under their noses was just too much to take and the end of Volume 7 was really RWBY losing its last chance to be "good". I could buy Ironwood going off the deep end and I'd be fine if that was just what happened. But combined with the other stupid shit it was too much, especially since this was part of Blake and Yang just becoming infuriating and Blake horribly dragging down Yang's character. Which is something that would get worse next Volume.

Funny you say that, because people on Twitter are cheering this on, thinking this $30 million will fund Volume 10 (that this money might literally not exist, is lost on them)

Robyn is the one with the Truth powers, right? That everyone for some reason believes (despite issues), but which she uses like once?

Something is vaguely "lighting up" in my mind when you say this, so I think I sorta remember it, but no real specifics.
 
(Tumblr "confess" blogs allow users to submit anonymous messages to the blog which then reposts them, so people can state spicy opinions without facing a harassment mob.) Everyone probably knows that but for the five people who don't.

This same show had multiple on screen gags of Blake doing cat things like chasing a laser pointer, going crazy over fish, and being scared of a dog. But if fans make the same jokes it's racism. It must be exhausting to know this person.

It’s like these guys never saw something with animal or animal like characters before.
