You know the success of the Amazing digital circus just highlights how much they fucked up with RWBY, and Gen:lock to an extent.
Ok I will be fair and ignore the first episode ADC episode’s views because ok maybe it was luck and memes. Whatever. Benefit of doubt. Now, the SECOND Amazing Digital Circus episode is not even a week long and it already has 30 million views. As of today.
Forget RWBY. Its been 4 days and it has more views than ANYTHING on RT’s YouTube channel period.
Not only that, but each ADC episode is released completely subbed, AND dubbed in many language. Only two episodes and it already has a lot more animation quality and fame than RT’s crown jewel. Meanwhile RT tought giving us English subs was praise worthy?
They had no excuse. They were backed by one of the biggest multinational entertainment companies, that is WB, and a small indie studio is destroying them. You can‘t even use money to excuse them because Barbara revealed RWBY was burning so much money It was more expensive than most top tier anime.
