Hm. So copying anime and Monty going full throttle is to blame?

It was in works for most of 2019, it launched officially in August 2019, and up until then you ether saw a beta test notice on the RT Site, or Off Topic (that was how I heard of it.)

Wouldn't it be easier to just put it on HBO Max like they are with the supposedly upcoming Gen:LOCK season 2? Or did HBO decide "no, get that weeb shit out of here"?

It will probably get moved to HBO Max if RT gets folded into Cartoon Network.

Also didn't HBO Max have a bunch of shake ups in staffing? Warner also shut down their mid tier movie division they just started that would provide movies for HBO Max.

Point is, Warner is trying to staunch the bleeding and probably can't be bothered to move RT's content around at the moment.

And then there’s the talk of whether or not they’ll do something with RWBY, whether canceling, reediting, or just straight up rebooting.

I don't know if this has been brought up before so excuse my lateness but did anyone else feel like there was a sudden shift in regards to Adam and Blake's relationship?

I feel like in all the pre-Monty death (peace be upon his name) episodes they were setting it up as a master-apprentice or perhaps a leader-follower dynamic. Like he was a Griffith-equse character who was so set on his ideals and charming that people just gravitated to him and over time his ideals outweighed his morals and blake could no longer follow him.

Instead, we get a man whining like a bitter ex over a girl that would be a very young minor when they would be in White Fang together ( Ignoring the DC retcon)

edit: my retarded spelling and grammar

This has been an established problem RWBY's story. And something that I get mad about for no reason.

Its been established that Miles + Kerry essentially re-wrote the character to be a bitter ex after Monty died. Something about basing him off some of the VA's ex or something (I think it was Barabara, but can't be sure). The reasoning is about as retarded as you would expect from RT.

Soft reboot is the safest path. Cancel current incarnation, reboot with a time skip.
This isn’t the most likely though. Most likely is they end it early and just have comic spinoffs, which is far cheaper and what happens to most animated franchises now. Even ATLA is still around in zombie form via comics that are released once every two years.

The only way I can see that happening is if Salem wins and just destroys everything or forces her rule around the planet.

I mean, RT already has history with DC so that's a possibility, but DC is rumored to be on the chopping block as well. Either way, I think RT will make sure there's closure for this show...and that there's a happy ending.

The idea of Clover's luck being the reason of why the Ace Ops being considered Atlas's best is retarded, but it shines a gaping hole involving this kingdom's military force in general when you start to pick at it lightly.

Was Clover assigned to be with his fellow operatives back when they all were low-ranked and his Semblance helped them climb up the ranks by doing nothing, and mostly getting fluffed on achievements they might've earned? I assumed that they were strangers who were placed together due to each individual excelling in one particular field, hence why the whole "We aren't really friends" line given to us by Harriet or that big chick who's just their Nora.

Personally, the whole idea of "best and brightest" used in RWBY has no meaning when our heroes can just steamroll over others, because the other side either lacks Plot Armor of RWBY / JNR or because they didn't have their "cheat codes" activated before fighting off a bunch of dipshits led by Little Miss Idealism and her thousandth speech about friendship that would make Natsu Dragneel from Fairy Tail shout at her to shut the fuck up about it.

I’m so confused by Clover's semblance, I thought that Clover's luck works the same way as Qrow's, as in it both provides good luck for friends and for foes and is uncontrollable and always active. Following the "Ace Ops are only good because of Clover" statement, it implies that Clover's power is only beneficial and only applies to friendlies for some reason.

To make matters worse the Wiki states: "while Qrow's Semblance does not discriminate between who it affects and brings constant bad luck to everyone around him, Clover's Good Fortune seemingly only affected and brought him Good Luck" in whatever he did, instead of indiscriminately constantly giving Good Luck to everyone around him". If this is true, then how would it affect the team's performance in any major way beyond lacking a good teammate?

Or maybe the writing for this show is so shit and full of power creep that Miles and Kerry just went with the first idea that popped in their head which was "RWBY beats the most elite special forces of the world’s greatest military, belonging to a country with a warrior military culture so deep that school children are indoctrinated to grow up to become soldiers and the head of the military is also the headmaster of a school and a council member with 2 votes giving him greater political capital than the richest man in the world, who is also a council member, with the power of friendship."

P.s. Ironwood did nothing wrong.

edit: Altas's Major export is also magic gunpowder
 
I thought the point of Clover being a great teammate for Qrow was specifically because his good luck semblance would negate Qrow's bad luck aura. GJ Miles and Kerry, more inconsistent shit that was poorly thought through.

Inconsistent writing from Bumbleclot and Bumbleclotter, which considering them adamantly being uninterested in doing a timeline for this show because it’ll practically cause so much inconsistencies to collapse in on the show itself or being so inept at answering how Jaune got Pyrrha’s belongings despite Beacon getting devastated.

Ironically thanks to their stupid commentary, we already know that Qrow disliked Clover in the beginning when the guy was pretty nice to him during their meeting after the mess of RWBY / JNR got arrested.

If you say that word, at least there should be a engine update of this fucked up actual one. There's even more better animated hentai 3d than this & i'm not joking.
ATLA comics, just like said in the comics thread in art & literature are... man, not worth. The fucking Zuko x Suki one is one of the best examples of giving creative freedom. If only the fucking reason of Zuko searching for Suki isn't a random rupture between him & Mai with a literally NPC... probably it can be pass better but no. If RWBY goes to that path, that must be make sense with whatever shit they want to write.

The outfit is still awful but the hair is so much better than the weird stiff play-doh plaited bread shit that she ended up having. The amount of creativity and understanding of the character that third party artists have puts RT to shame e.g.
1604297756967.png

this nice outfit that obviously has elements of her older outfit and would have been nice during the gathering at the mansion
1604297847282.png

And then there is this outfit from the manga which IMO is the greatest design for Weiss I have ever seen. Something along the lines of this would have been great since it is much more practical, modern, and less gaudy which would suit Weiss's needs since she doesn't want to get draw too much attention in Atlas and would fit the urban city environment of the season. It also looks a lot less restricting and freer which would tie nicely into the idea that she has freed herself from her father's control.
