Ladies and Gentleman, after 3 years of making content, we FINALLY hit 5,000 subscribers!!! Thank you so much, making content has been a lot of fun and theres more to come. I got a few projects cooking in the oven so I hope y'all stay tuned! Thank you.
Well, I wouldn't label Ruby as "Woman".
I'd label her as "The idiot who decided to send millions of citizens from ice country into a desert wasteland filled with the most horrible monsters on the planet, and destroyed their homes when better options exist"
But that's just me.
The show cares so much about Ruby's turmoil during Volume 9 yet completely ignores Weiss' emotional distress of destroying her own country and not knowing her family's safety is one of the worst things the volume has done.
"We care about your problems. When we feel like it"
If this is a response to what I think it is (the criticism of Yang/Ruby's sisterhood not being fleshed out enough)
This is a... REALLY bad way of expressing that lol. Why bother engaging with the asshole in the picture's criticism or ignore them when you can silence them! Classy
Bumblebee was not planned from the beginning, but even if it was, it’s still horribly paced and executed, and queer women shouldn’t settle for such mediocre representation. They deserve so much better than this
Also, Monochrome > Bumblebee
Dude he didn't say Monty didn't plan this. He doesn't like the direction the story took. If you don't agree that's fine but don't put words in his mouth.
Hey
@MoistCr1TiKaL
, I really like your content, but this is extremely out of pocket.
Monty had Volume 9 planned out from the start, and had his closest friends write this whole story with him, and some of the things you’ve said here directly shits on him and other people. -
No I think Ruby should have had more consistent characterization and didn't take EIGHT SEASONS to become a proper protagonist or NINE SEASONS to have a arc. Jaune probably should have been made a simpler character to give more time for that.
But hey thats just me.
This livestream the other day was fantastic, but I gotta give props to this hilarious artwork by
@deterex525
. Ruby's bratty-ness is on full display and Ironwoods face is priceless lol
This comment is disrespectful toward common sense.
Fan content is a large part of what keeps this show alive. If you prefer official stuff, fine. But fan content and AU's are as natural to a fandom's ecosystem as breathing air.
Check yourself. This is both sad and funny.
This is a very important day in the RWBY Fandom...
So let's have some fun :)
If someone buys RWBY, will we get Volume 10, or will it get rebooted? Place your bets, people!
Rooster Teeth is biting the dust after more than two decades.
Parent company Warner Bros. Discovery, after unsuccessful attempts to sell the unprofitable fandom, gaming and comedy entertainment division, is shutting down Rooster Teeth’s operations.
Don't know about Hero Hei. As for Critter, maybe it's my bias talking, but to summarize *grabs a sheet of paper*:
Hoes Mad
Hoes Mad
Hoes Mad
That is all.
Maybe it's because I don't pay attention to RWBYtubers or stuff like that. But why does everyone hate "Hero Hei" and "The Judgemental Critter"
Why does everyone think they deserve such hate? Like did they really do something so bad? (Genuinely asking and confused)
Yes because THAT'S a mature reaction a company should take towards people who have grievances with their story. Seems legit.
Look, enjoy the ship all you want, Im happy for you. But this is not good from a PR standpoint.

Imagine looking at a historian studying the Holocaust, going up to them being all like "Why do you spend so much time trying to learn about something you hate?".

Pretty much. If people didn't already think RWBY was starting to suck, none of our videos on it would ever go past 10k views. Note even close.
Whats more annoying is that positive content towards the show get way more attention, yet WE'RE changing the narrative???
Fuck off.
@Manga_Kamen
I hate the idea that a single person can cause an entire fandom to turn on something, like they have no thoughts for themselves.
Was caused the hate is people recognizing that the show was getting worse and worse as time went on.
The RWBY fandom never ceases to disgust me.
I make a tweet yesterday saying that I hope they get a new season and that it's good, and then I joke about reviewing it...
Next thing ya know, I'm getting dogpiled.
And you wonder why people hate RWBY and the FNDM.
Any artists out there, I'd be super interested if someone could draw an older version of Yuffie. One where she is more mature and experienced. Has anyone drawn a design like that?
Something tells me that if Mauler made long videos about how much he LOVED TLJ and certain other films/content creators, I don't think you would have this reaction. But hey, I'm just a guy who values the arguments a person makes. Not the length of them.
Mauler is legitimately one of the worst critiques I’ve ever seen, if you can’t summarize your point in at least an hour you failed. I’m someone who doesn’t even like the Last Jedi but if you need five hours to explain something that doesn’t even take half the time you failed.
Buddy, as a RWBYTuber who has been dunking on this show for 3 whole years, let me tell you that there are many many many problems with Volume 8.
This shit is not one of them lmao
Everyone’s reminder that V8 fs up its lore so badly it ends up asserting that Pennys soul is illegitimate and plays no role her sentience
RWBYs biggest problem is that it tells you the wall is red after painting it blue and never checking and it’s sad to see people fall for it
If you're a writer who gets pulled along by your own fans to do dumb shit, you do not deserve to be a writer. JJ's low-key a bitch for doing that. I don't blame the dumb teenage fans who don't know any better.
@YoungKaiser3
@aWomanWondering
@sennaverse
Because dumb fans can make the writer do dumb shit, take Reylo for example, the fanbase made JJ Abrams insert this kiss, regardless of the fact he mind raped her, tortured her, and almost killed her friend, and killed a father figure towards Rey
@shadydoorags
Not to mention, even if he ISN'T contributing to Gotham (which he has on several occasions that aren't for "tax reasons". Would love a source on that), the writers just don't want Batman to do it. IN CHARACTER, Bruce would absolutely do all of this stuff. Comic writers just suck.
Further, another clip shows her fantasizing about the person she copyright struck, Sai, getting hit by a bus.
This is around the same time as the earlier clip.
This man can literally beat cancer to death with money and someone will still find reasons to hate him.
Y'all wanted a billionaire with morals. Here he is. Take it or leave it.
While American YouTuber MrBeast’s goal was to provide clean drinking water for 500,000 people, activists say his actions shamed the Kenyan government and helped perpetuate the stereotype that Africa is "dependent on handouts."
Look people, I've never seen the Acolyte. But if you legit think that a few youtubers saying a show sucks constitutes harassment or that influenced Disney of all people to cancel it... I urge you to reevaluate your thinking.
This is not how fans should respond.
@rewritingripley
thanks for reaching out. just heard back and confirmed that this content is not violative & will remain up. we totally understand you may not agree with this decision, but we reviewed this video very carefully against our policies
@G119ofT
Vacuo is the worst place you could possibly go. Not only is it literally Salem's next target, but it's a desert wasteland with more Grimm than the other nations AND (in lord at least) can't keep their own huntsman in line. It's like sending Iceland's populace to Saudi Arabia.
SO, Joon The King is releasing his big Lily Orchard video in October.
Meaning at the rate that she is going, either Lily snaps further BEFORE the video or after.
She's cooked either way.
and knowing someone is hunting Ruby.
Yang is a bad sister and boba isn't going to make up for that.
I say this as someone with siblings and has good relationships with them and was there when they felt like unaliving themselves. They were also there for me.
Honestly its like they have an allergic reaction to characters actually interacting, being given interesting scenarios, or acknowledging previous events for more than 5 minutes
In light of the new info from the Rwby v9 commentary, I’ve been thinking about the off-screen handling of Penny’s death with the cast. They brought back a beloved character from the dead, just to kill her off again, and they kept the discussion about it off screen? 🧵(1/4)
Just because they didn't get beat up doesn't make this shit weird. If you want people to "think more" about why Yang is a well written sister, gaging them before they can even explain WHY is probably not a good idea.
It's not even done funnily, either.
The people in the qts are so dramatic it’s actually hilarious. They’re acting like this is some kind of mass threat against criticism when all this person did was draw silencing the person and saying to think more then just black and white. The dude didn’t get beat up. Calm down
@JudgmentalThe
And you KNOW for a fact that the minute someone from our side made something similar to this, this type of fan would be first person to call ALL critics psychopaths.
Unless you have had a traumatic experience, its best to not let bad fandoms dictate your relationship with an anime. Watch the stories on their own merits. If you want people to talk to, make a discord and invite some weebs you can trust. Communities are overrated. ✌️
Eddy Rivas posted some pictures of the writers working on Rwby volume 7, it includes this whiteboard. We could’ve had Nora and Blake protesting together?
What the eff is this?
I caused the RWBY hate?
Giving me too much credit there, genius. If anything, it's fans like you that make people hate RWBY because you paint anyone who criticized the show as a bigot or terrible person
I only, at best, made one video on RWBY a year.
CBF on the money as usual.
The RWBY Stans and show drove away Critter and UoW, two of the biggest champions for it. Cal and MoB have been making less content for it. And anyone else who is positive about the show does it once in a blue moon.
But nah, its our fault lol
@YoungKaiser3
@DavidKoude51757
@MidnasLament27
If anything, barring fatman who dogged lt since the start, the 5-25K sub channels criticizing RWBY after V4 & 5, and people like Critter and Unicorn of War turning on the show around V8, are indicative of the downturn of fan reception, rather than why fans don't give it a chance.
Fixing RWBY officially celebrates its 7 year anniversary today! Time just flies by, I almost missed it working on some fun stuff! It's been such a wild ride, and it's only going to get wilder! Thank you all for the support, and please look forward to the future of this project!
I think what will REALLY get me in this situation is my views on Ruby's entire development throughout the show. If only I was making a video about that... Stay Tuned 😉
@anopocrypha
Tomino made a show called Dunbine. This is one of the main villains. I kid you not, his name is Shot Weapon. And he's from Silicon Valley. My sides need therapy 🤣
Im not sure if I would say the show would be BETTER for having a more basic premise, but It would be easier for the cast and crew to handle. No doubt about that.
Remove the Salem/Maiden plot point and the show would've been better focusing on the four girls just living their school lives and trying to be Huntsmen.
Not every story needs a world ending villain, sometimes it's just fun to watch characters living in a fun/interesting world.
Ok leaving behind whether Red was right or wrong here, I think what hurts her most here is that she actively says she doesn't want any debate or deliberation over the topic... even though she brought it up.
Easy way to piss everyone off.
For good and bad. Dragon Ball has been nothing short of memorable to me, let alone anyone else. I am grateful. And I will live on grateful for his work, however small that may be.
Rest in Power, Toriyama-Sensei.
Lily singlehandedly is the most elitist person to ever talk about anime by virtue that she is so conceited despite finishing only 10 or so.
Old-taku Snobs wish they can be this smug.
I can’t believe how actually racist Lily Orchard is. Imagine being such a scum low life creep, that you insult/dehumanize people, just because they watch media from a different country? Go back to just watching coffee shop sitcoms you racist jackass.
In my opinion? Absolutely not. We barely really got to see her interact with her team and the only scene between her Jaune that gave both their characters a boost was in v3 before she died. Her death is tragic but the character was barely worth it as presented.
Curious, do you think Pyrrha being the more central character for the second half of V3 paid off, cause that’s were most of her arc/development happens as she didn’t get a ton of focus till V3, but did get the odd focus here and there, so was that enough for the pay off?
#RWBY
So I've been sent this clip from Lily Orchard's recent stream where it sounds as though she equates "copyright strikes" as a way to put her critics in "a ten day time-out."
@TeamYouTube
, this is proof Lily sees strikes as a punishment to penalize her critics.
Well as usual, Lily is wrong on so many levels. Its not like Batman didn't WANT to kill Joker but he knew that doing so would cause so many internal and external issues he couldn't back away from. Invincible characters don't have Batman's backstory, so of course they can kill.
Or maybe, y'all should grow some balls and prove Kamen's arguments wrong.
And if you don't care enough to do so... I don't know why you'd bother tweeting about it??? Watch the vid or something idk, just a thought.
Sorry to anyone who couldn't make it to

Please support this absolute legend.
One of these three is directly responsible for a Grimm Invasion that nearly destroyed Argus, and despite doing that, along with millions in property damage and grand theft airship, they are never punished or reprimanded.
You’ll never guess who it is.

Barry Allen was dead for over 10 years or so in the comics. Which allowed people to get used to Wally in the suit and prove himself. (At least as far as I am told, I'm not a comic guy)
Also GL is a title for an entire force FROM THE BEGINNING. Its not retroactive
Dude, I get that you just got into the medium yesterday but here's an open secret:
This stuff had weird ecchi content before you even drew your first breath. Its not special and its not harming society. Touch grass.

@Barley_Juice_
The fact that it's so common in so many anime now actually upsets me. Things that would never fly in the real world are being treated like comedic gold in anime and lowkey kinda normalizing sexual harassment
We all know Rachael Lillis from the many wonderful roles she played. She filled our Saturday mornings and before/after school hours with her beautiful voice, her terrific comic timing, and her remarkable acting skills.
#RachaelLillis
Now they do put a bit more emphasis on character in part 2 which is an improvement... but its a very small improvement. This is still RWBY after all lol
Like, yeah. The fact Superman can fly and is super strong makes for thrilling action sequences, but that's not what makes him a fun character. His personality, his moral code, his relationships. THAT is what makes him actually interesting as a protagonist. (5/7)
But for real, though, people. Eren/Canonseeker is an absolute unhinged freak who makes RWBY fans look bad and does nothing but annoy everyone in the community. If you come across them, do what you gotta do.
Here's a doc with the lore:
@Calxiyn
He's been really busy over in several other reddits that are only the most tangentially of related to RWBY, trying to garner sympathy. He's a sentient scab of human cringe and manipulation.
Unironically, it's probably the best scene where Sora interacts with a Disney character EVER. This moment is underrated as fuck, and I might make a video about why.
I think he is a good guy and has a lot of decent media takes. Any harassment he receives is obviously undeserved.
That being said, I feel that in trying to be honest when responding to shitty people or ideas, he gets way too emotional, and it makes things worse at times.
Real talk? What are your thoughts on Schaffrillas?
I don’t agree with everything he says, obviously. But I think he gets way too much crap for just expressing his honest opinions on Disney and Nintendo.
@AGramuglia
@JayExci
Well here's a better question-- in good faith-- what criticisms that EFAP have of your video that was/wasn't beneficial?
Didn't see the stream myself, merely heard about it, so I don't know off hand.
All the ppl in the qrt like "bbbut she lied to ironwood >:(" my bad for not trusting the paranoid authoritarian military general who has been prone to overreacting and making things worse
Games journalists need to be gamers. Not super fans or anything, but they need to be familiar with the craft to document and talk about it competently.
Jokes and everything aside, it does suck that now even more people are basically out of the job. Everyone who has been hard at work in this company for so many years, I hope they get new gigs.
Fuck the execs though. This trainwreck is on them.
This is a very important day in the RWBY Fandom...
So let's have some fun :)
If someone buys RWBY, will we get Volume 10, or will it get rebooted? Place your bets, people!
Mary sue has an actual definition that isn't rooted in sexism. People hate on Gary Stues all the time. We call them Isekai Protagonists.
