I love how Ruby's songs are about her fighting her struggles, Weiss's songs are about how awful her childhood is and how her father won't control her any longer, and Blake's is about straight up fighting racism... And then all of Yang's songs are about how great she is
Kamare Edwards Well yeah! She needs confidence to fight like she does,and to protect herself. Blake could actually needs a song about not leaving your friends behind like an ass.
Kamare Edwards Her songs are not about how great she is. They are about how she got out of her sadness and became stronger. They are showing that she does not cry about the little things and fights for the things she wants. The songs are about her confidence and does not stay crying like the other characters songs. It shows that she can get through the bad times and fight.
O MAN I GOTTA SAVE MY SISTER FROM THIS BEAR options A) punch bear away B) punch sister away C) jump into the bear's mouth and get eaten YANG: I GOT THIS
rocketsniper34 3 , Gohan:So Mr. Piccolo,what are going to teach me today?A brand new technique?How to sense energy?What about how to fly... Piccolo:DODGE! *Fires Energy Blast at Gohan*
Ok can we all agree that Yangs new current outfit is her "wandering badass" outfit while her V1-3 outfit was the "Hot blonde who is way out of your league" outfit?
@@benduford3746 Fast forward to V7, and Yang has had No dialog of substance with her sister. Or anyone else for that matter. Only Blake. For almost all 2 minutes and 48 seconds of speaking lines for the entire volume.
@@DocMicrowave Instead of breaking down into tears about learning what finally happened to what she believes is her "super mom" she instead immediately went to support Ruby who was even more torn up about it instead of worrying about her own feelings. :/
@@AJkingwing Funny you should mention that scene. No words of comfort, encouragement? I guess she was saving all those lines for Blake. Sorry, not enough. I needed more than
Agreed gone are the days off RWBY actually spending time together and bonding as a team. Weiss and Ruby interactions are always the best thing about RWBY now they hardly talk. I also miss Mamma Bear Yang!
Am I the only one who loves how they all use the gun mode as a means of propulsion? Like how Yang used it to give herself that extra burst. Or how Ruby use it with crescent rose to give that extra bit of force for cutting tough objects. I love some of the unique uses of their gun mode
Then there's Blake who shoots her gun to hook into a surface and swings around with her whip. Nora can also propel herself from the pink explosion that her hammer emits. Emerald can swing her kusarigama around too, and Mercury uses his leg gauntlets for propulsion the same way Yang uses her arm gauntlets
"I've always got your back, sis." "I won't always be there to save you." Really shows how Ruby and Weiss's relationships with their sister's affected their personalities and world views
I'm glad the animators and choreographers are improving with the inclusion of applying momentum back into the fight scenes. That was one thing Monty abused the hell out of and it looks like they're finally following suit and what the previous seasons without Monty was lacking a LOT of. RIP Monty, your baby's getting better with every passing year. Hope it stays true to your vision.
I'm really hoping that in the rest of series 5 they bring back the amazing fight choreography that made series 1-3 so great. 4 was still a great series, but the fight scenes felt a bit too much like generic hack n slash fighting game rather than the super creative battles in prior series. I'm a bit concerned about how many split plot lines they've created though..
For all the ppl hating on Yang and saying she is "full of herself". Full of urself means that u only care for urself. Yang is probably the most caring person in the team. She is not full of herself. She is confident in herself.
Winter: im not always going to be there to protect you weiss Yang: ive always got your back sis. Whos the better sister?? They r both right in a way and both want to help their siblings equally as much...
neither, yang doesn't always keep her promises since according to the writers, we can't have bumbleby AND xiao long sister moments and winter admits that she was wrong in v7
I think they mean it in different ways with winter it is physically from danger but with yang it is emotional as yang and they are both a foil to each other as winter needs to be there for Weiss emotionally not being the rigid solider but her sister and yang would be physically needing to be there as she let ruby leave after the fall of beacon and Blake leaving so she needs to be there as of volume 5 when they made this and winter had this growth in volume 8 when she abandoned everything she worked for to support Weiss and the rest of the team which is pretty good writing so not bat crwby not bad
Liking how the end of this fight is similar to her encounter with Adam, but with a different ending. Yang rushing to protect someone she cares about and getting hit hard. Though in this case, her semblance did the job and got her out of this bad situation in one piece.
Yang is easily one of my favorite characters. This short was just another glimpse at how badass this show has become. Everything about it is consistently improving.
"Don't worry, I've always get your back sis." Too bad no one had yours, Yang. We want to watch this and see it as a memory of bonding sisters, but in reality, Yang just misses ol' Righty.
I find it an interesting contrast between ruby and yang's sibling relationship shown in this trailer and Weiss and winter's relationship in the previous. Both are big sisters moving on to bigger things but wanting their little sisters to flourish without them. both engaging in combat training however while yang promises to always have ruby's back, winter shows Weiss the importance of needing to forever cover her own. Which method is best you might ask, who knows but it's interesting that both methods would be useless if used on the other younger sibling. SO the question is, which type of big sibling do you wanna be?
Novembre Pleut personally? a little bit of both. I would want my younger sibling to be able to protect themselves whether I'm there to protect them or not. which is why I'd tell them that even if I'm not around? I'm always there for them in spirit. they have everything they need to get through it.
So glad they kept her fighting style relavent to the timeline. Back then, Yang SUCKED compared to how much she's improved over the show. Not to say she was bad back then - it's just nowadays she could beat that ursa in a few hits, not a whole fight. And, natural to how she was back then, she just threw a temper tantrum - as her daddy put it - to win like she always did. Well done, Rooster!
Finally a comment that makes some sense. Everyones complaining that it’s a terrible fight and it’s like, we saw yang kill an ursa with ease back in V1 so...
Actually, this wasn't a Beowulf; it's an Ursa... & possibly in Devil Trigger mode judging by the black smoke being emitted by it. This episode took place shortly before season 1, & prolly shortly before or after her Yellow Trailer where she fought much better than this. Now I don't know if the DT thing is real or not but still, Yang should've been able to perform better than this judging by her performance against Junior & his two bouncer babe & where she easily beat up two Ursa (even though one was felled by Blake). I attribute this to the choreography team not being consistent with Yang's skills in the timeline. I count half dozen CinemaSins in this episode alone.
@Salted: Doubtful... Yang'll prolly still gets her ass kicked by Neopolitan or Adam, seeing how they both beat her effortlessly. That training wont get her far.
Tbh they can't do that anymore since they are using different animation software. RT use Miya now to animate RWBY, thats why Yang's hair wont be lit anymore. But If they can pull off a fiery Super Saiyan glow around her body, I'd be happy with that at least.
Maybe this will be lost to the big comment section but Yang saying "you can't always run away from your problems" makes so much sense for her fighting style. Her weapon requires her to be close to her enemy, confronting it upfront. You saw it, whenever she hit the grimm from the sides it barely took any damage, when she shoots it from a distance it doesn't do much. But when she goes upfront and blocks the paw, she gets a chance to shoot it to it's weakest point (i.e. the belly where it doesn't have any armour) Heck, even her semblance requires her to be in the front, taking damage before she can fight back.
+Soarel Still a fact that can be applied in real life. There are actually situations where running away isn't an option and running away from your fears doesn't help you be less afraid of them. It makes you more afraid of them and can eventually make you so scared of encountering them, you'll be too afraid to leave your house/apartment.
Actually running is always an option there's just some points in life where it's not the right thing to do. There's nothing wrong with taking a step away from it but overall trying to avoid it completely almost never works out. But in response to Yang's comment, she basically tried to force Ruby into a situation she's not comfortable with, she isn't a brawler, she doesn't have the strength for that. That's like getting a random person off the street putting them up against a champion mma fighter. You see how that would end poorly for the random right? Well in this case the random is Ruby. Even if Yang wasn't going to seriously hurt her sister, I wouldn't want to take that punch either lol. Ruby is a scythe weilder, she spends all her time training with her scythe. You can't just force someone to try to learn a new style and then get it all in one day. That's something that takes time, commitment and skill. Let's just say if Yang didn't recover as quickly as she did. Ruby would be dead because she was frozen in fear
+Kendrick BaldwinTV Not bringing the scythe at all when they were training in Grim infested woods was far from the best idea Yang ever had, but I guess that's why Ruby was team leader (That was a joke, I know that's not the real reason.). Anyway, Yang had the right idea wanting to train Ruby in hand-to-hand, since as a huntress, she's likely to find herself in situations where she's without her weapon (which happened in Volume 2 and resulted in her getting captured), or where her weapon is either inopportune or inappropriate for a situation. Fortunately, while it isn't really touched if Ruby ever improved in hand-to-hand after V2, she does at least seem capable of wielding other bladed weapons effectively, such as Penny's sword in Volume 3. We can also assume that, since her scythe functions as a firearm, she could improvise with standard gun, and while she would be out of her specialty, it seems like she could probably manage with something akin to Blake's weapon. Honestly though, at an academy like Beacon, they really should have teams go through unarmed sparring, as well as sessions where they swap weapons with other students to round out their skill sets a bit, because overspecialization builds weaknesses, and weaknesses make one easy prey for both opportunists and strategists. Of course, you can always wind up flat out outmatched like when RNJR fought Tyrian, but that's more about general combat experience.
Jesus Christ people. WE ALL KNOW. Monty(R.I.P.) was an amazing animator and will never be forgotten. That doesn't excuse the fact that you are criticizing the hard working teams that struggle so terribly with the unbearable "fans" who do nothing but complain about how the choreography and animation isn't as good as it was with him. I'll admit, Monty was great. He was amazing, skilled and hardworking and he was well loved by all of us. That doesn't make him the god of animation like you think he is. You guys put him up on a pedestal that almost mirrors Pyrrha's. No animator on the team feels like they're good enough to work on Monty's show because the fans are so critical of everything they do! Sure, you can criticize the short because there was no real background or plot involved. I get it. But if you decide to insult the work and struggle put into the piece of art we have, fortunately for free, right in front of us I don't understand why. I'm pretty sure Monty wanted us to love his WORK, not the quality of the choreography or animation. The whole idea of, RWBY. Sure, respect him. Love him and praise him, but don't criticize his hard working team that try their best to put on a platter his great show. They could've dropped the show in a whole, but they didn't. Just be happy about that.
Orderless_ Can we be friends because I feel the same way. "This is good but not like Monty" "Monty did so much better". Tbh Monty (god bless him) is awesome for making this amazing show/anime but times have changed. These so called "fans" dont even know how much of an impact Monty's death had on the team. They are improving their style but it will never be like Monty's.
lol you said struggle. yeah, all these live streams about random topics and other projects just takes it out of them. struggle... *dying. but in all seriousness - there are hundreds of others actually talented in the same department Monty is in. Get it straight - the choreography is what got them the fanbase to begin with and telling people to shut up for the same reason they were captivated in the first place is a losing battle. looking for new talent doesn't hurt - like the choreography. Yes, I said the C word and I'll mention it to you as many times as you want to hear it, Orderless. America already has enough talentless movies in the fictional and non-fiction department and when they finally see a ray of something different we in the west rarely see, the last thing they, I want to hear is 'deal with the mediocrity! WE ALL KNOW.' If RT did know, there'd be a bit of hiring (and firing if need be) by now. That is unless rt even care about the main selling point of the whole series.
robert brooks: this to a T. It really is rooster teeth's fault that they won't hire someone to help the choreography, knowing the fanbase wants it. We all love RWBY, that's why it is so disappointing to see it like it is now.
Richard Welch I know the choreography isn't as good as it was, but that wasn't my point. I'm just tired of seeing people complain and whine so much about animation when I'm trying to read positive comments about something I love. It almost feels like all I ever see is complaining so I had to at least say something. I'm not so much speaking about how they shouldn't feel disappointed, I'm speaking up about how much they're doing it. 8 out of 10 comments I see are just complaints and it annoys me so much.
Really proud of the animation team behind this show. They've been improving and doing better, and somehow STILL bringing in Volume content quickly enough that we aren't waiting forever for each Volume/Season. Keep it up!
I am in love with the quality of the plants in the background. It seems like such a small thing, but I've been watching since the beginning and seeing the steady increase in animation quality is beautiful!
This is why Yang is my favorite character in the show. She is super badass. She is strong. She has a cool design. She is confident, but still nice and friendly, and the best big sister ever. And she has a great weapon and fighting style. I can't wait to see her back in Volume 5
It’s been fun seeing the consistent improvement in the animation for this show. I just got done re watching volume 1 with some friends who have never watched RWBY and then I watched this video on my own. Animation-wise, things have been picking up for the series. I’m just hoping volume 5 can get the pace of the plot to move a little better than volume 4 did.
Wayneisboss Agreed. The animation has come a long way. It's just a shame that the story couldn't pick up the pace as well. Trying to fit in SIX story arcs in the span of one season doesn't make for good pacing or development, as Volume 4 has shown.
That is a fair point... ruby doesn't know how to use her power without her scythe. She has the eyes and rose movement, but has incorporated everything she has into her weapon... looks like she'll need to learn how to deal without it... especially against all the villains who can fight with or without weapons
she uses her semblance without crescent rose in the red trailer and when she is wandering around the emerald forest with Weiss, as well as during the food fight in episode 1 of volume 2
+Durr Plant A little child in real life fought off an attacker who stabbed him in the head by using self-defense techniques so I'm pretty sure Ruby can learn how to fight without Crescent Rose.
I have no jokes, puns or anything witty to say. I just want to point out that I love RWBY, that I love the new animation, that I love this character short and that I really love Yang Xiao Long. Can't wait for V5.
Lelouch vi Britannia Yet this fight still has some problems, no, I'm not talking about laws of physics (I can easly let it slide of) , I'm talking about how Ursa and Yang acted; 1. Why the hell Ursa didn't kill Ruby when it got a chance? 2. Yang lunches herself to the air, wants to hit the Ursa and lands after that... and THEN hits him? 3. Why Ursa is showing his back when he was in the front of Yang just a second ago? 4. How Yang got into it's mouth? Just how?
Jared Baly its not really about monetization, it's about them trying to make money on their own company rather than having to go through a 3rd party like TH-cam, I'm surprised not a ton of other TH-camrs do it as well. Money on TH-cam is complicated and you don't get much, RT being on their own really makes them way more money which lets them do way higher budget projects like this
ninja gość Believe it or not but the fights were the thing that people got into the series (don't even deny that) and now without Monty (God bless his soul) the animators work without any plan from what I've seen, heck, I bet they don't even have any storyboard for this (intended overreacting). The amount of inconsistens is just dreadful. They need to take a break and learn one or two things from some animation teachers, I think they could do that. Btw "gość"? Are you from Poland dear sir?
For reference and why some of you are wondering why Volume 5 Ep 1 isn't out on TH-cam, here are the TRUE release dates and specifications: - Volume 5 Episode 1 came out today for *paying Rooster Teeth FIRST members.* - Volume 5 Episode 1 comes out October 17th for regular Rooster Teeth members. - Volume 5 Episode 1 comes out October 21st for everyone else.
I love every single character in RWBY (ahem, well... *glances at Adam*) But I agree, this trailer was my least favorite. I expected a bit more, but it was okay-ish overall. XD
I instead choose to believe that Yang has enough power in her arm to overpower a steady bear 10 times her mass and create enough friction to stay in the air while at it.
Yeah, because fighting a Grimm UNARMED is a great idea. And with Yang, her fighting with or without her weapon isn't all the different anyway, because all her gauntlets give her is slightly more defense, longer range, and mobility options.
@@Karacetamol Jaune: Boo!!! Ren: Boooo. Jaune: Get off the stage! Sun: Oh yeah, now I remember. I'm supposed to be, uhh... Not here. *tries to walk away, but Ren grabs him by the tail* Hey!
I mean, with her super speed, she would be perfect for high DPS. I just remembered that one scene from The Incredibles where they´re all in this jungle, and the kids get seperated, and the boy punches that henchman 10 or so times per second.
I think they perfected the art style at this point. They have gotten pretty close to monty-like choreography, but can do so much with the new style the couldn’t with poser.
Caleb Meilink-Smith yah, the gravity seems really floaty, but the projectiles seem to end up in the same place they would have as if they were flying straight, so I can get past it.
Well Monty at least followed the proper laws of physics with the projectiles. But here we are seeing them being curved upwards.... EDIT: Besides... Im pretty sure animating a straight projectile is alot easier to animate than that curvaceous mess.
This fight, right here, just shows how much RWBYS Animation has changed. It get's better every year. And it actually looked a lot smoother compared to past year fights.
In this short, Yang seems a bit more hot headed than usual... then again, in the end of V3 she was being a bit cold. Maybe in Volume 5, Yang will finally be just right. (This is a bad joke, not legitimate criticism. Thank you)
Comrade Necron yeeeeeah... the shipping thing in the fandom is getting really out of hand and honestly some devolve into cancerous methods to the point they try to shove it down the throat of people who just want to watch
I noticed something, before, Yang's hair was golden, while now, it's closer to straw colored, like her Dad's. Lack of exposure to direct sunlight maybe, or maybe just a sign of her growing?
ShadowL Drago no, its just a change in production quality, if it were a sign of her growing they wouldn't be showing it before the first episode even began.
Not what I meant, what I meant was during the flashback, Yang's hair was golden, when we returned to "present day", it was closer to Taiyang's hair color.
i have new respect for jaune after this video. aside from not remembering to put his shield up, he took down one of the same Ursa Majors by himself with just a sword and no anime powers.
I keep coming back to watch this. There's a lot I like about it: the expressions, the voices and of course, the animation, all capped with a heart-warming message at the end.
Yeah, some were pretty bad but RNJR vs Tyrian was pretty good, and Qrow vs Tyrian was damn amazing. Just bugged me how they had to keep stopping for RNJR to cut in, but it made sense.
Still not quite on the same level as the first couple seasons but think fight looked much better than the ones of last season. I don't think it's fair to expect the same level or style as when Monty was in charge but it's nice to see that maybe they took some of the criticisms from last season and used them to improve. Also, that look on Rubys face as the ursa was charging and she takes the fighting stance as best as she could was perfect. Hope this is a sign of what we can expect for the who next season. Really made Ruby feel like a unique character again.
Idk, Tyrian vs Qrow was really cool, and while not a replication, I feel like it was solid and was a lot closer to Monty's style of choreography than any of the rest. Arguably closer than even this in my opinion. This isn't counting V3 though, as Cinder vs Pyrrha, Penny vs Pyrrha, and bits of some of the others were also really on point.
Geminidragon I agree, it's cool to see them genuinely trying to take criticism and improve their work, I respect that. A lot of these new guys are self taught as well, so I'm hoping they'll continue to improve as the series goes on.
Browsing through the comments, most of them how the fighting scenes are not that great which you often see in every RWBY vids. Guys, seriously? Fans are sooo hard to please. I love it anyway, it's nice they are adding more plot than kicking butts every time.
Mae Valiente I know right I really can't comprehend why everyone is looking at it through what is bad, why can't we just enjoy how beautiful the animation is?
Mae-Neau there a difference between criticizing and complains people think just because out it's not Monty it's automatically awful there are more good animators then him.yes Monty great animator but give the other animators a Chance
They're improving the technical aspects of their action scenes. But they're still need to work a lot. I enjoyed the music, and the contrast between past and present Yang. Well Done RT
I love how Ruby's songs are about her fighting her struggles, Weiss's songs are about how awful her childhood is and how her father won't control her any longer, and Blake's is about straight up fighting racism...
And then all of Yang's songs are about how great she is
Kamare Edwards
Well yeah! She needs confidence to fight like she does,and to protect herself. Blake could actually needs a song about not leaving your friends behind like an ass.
+Kyla Clarp Oh my, I thought burns of that ferocity could only be found in Cinder's wet dreams.
This is why I don't like Yang. I hate people who are so hot-headed(even if I am like this sometimes) and full of themselves
Kamare Edwards Her songs are not about how great she is. They are about how she got out of her sadness and became stronger. They are showing that she does not cry about the little things and fights for the things she wants. The songs are about her confidence and does not stay crying like the other characters songs. It shows that she can get through the bad times and fight.
Taylor Tait
Explain I Burn. She's literally saying that the person fighting her sucks and that she's the best.
O MAN I GOTTA SAVE MY SISTER FROM THIS BEAR
options
A) punch bear away
B) punch sister away
C) jump into the bear's mouth and get eaten

Technoblade holy- what is a minecraft youtuber nerd doing here
hi umm congrats on the win streaks

Aurora Nightheart - Moonguard US ,LOL!YUS!Like,"Come closer.Why...didn't..you...DOOOOODGE!Bleh."
Yang: "It's okay. I've always got your back, sis."
Probs the most adorable thing I've ever seen.
Nah Ruby running over to Yang and close to tears for not being able to help was the most kawaii thing ever
I first saw this at NYCC, and everyone went "Aww" when Yang said that.
Ikr
Small Nora and Ren in volume 4 was by far more adorable
Adam will always have yang's arm.
Ok can we all agree that Yangs new current outfit is her "wandering badass" outfit while her V1-3 outfit was the "Hot blonde who is way out of your league" outfit?
Yeah
I like the second one sooo much more, and maybe it's just me - but it makes her so much more beautiful
the first one was so... dunno...bitchy? ^^"
Vicky vanSane wait how is an outfit bitchy lmao
i feel the first outfit better than this volume's, and it keeps the "bimbo" running gag
We can all agree that anything is better then volume 7.
She protec
She attac
but most importantly
She got her sister's bac
Eve 525 this just made my day
Ayyyy!

Can we talk about the fact that Yang threw herself into a Ursa's mouth just to prevent her sister from getting hurt? Best big sister ever.
Lelouch vi Britannia sisters goals right there
To also trigger her semblance.
+Midgit Giant He also (accidentaly) mindcontrolled one of his sisters into commiting mass genocide, before killing her.
Best. Brother. Ever.
Nicoxx456 Hey, accidents happen.
Nicoxx456 he made sure that she never realised what she did and had her die thinking she did good. So I repeat myself. Best. Brother. Ever.
Am I the only one who loves how they all use the gun mode as a means of propulsion? Like how Yang used it to give herself that extra burst. Or how Ruby use it with crescent rose to give that extra bit of force for cutting tough objects. I love some of the unique uses of their gun mode
Then there's Blake who shoots her gun to hook into a surface and swings around with her whip. Nora can also propel herself from the pink explosion that her hammer emits. Emerald can swing her kusarigama around too, and Mercury uses his leg gauntlets for propulsion the same way Yang uses her arm gauntlets
Yeah IS AWESOME
Nora's hammer ride in the Nevermore fight in S1 is an epic couple of seconds - epic.
Interesting means of recoil management to say the least
"I've always got your back, sis."
"I won't always be there to save you."
Really shows how Ruby and Weiss's relationships with their sister's affected their personalities and world views
I'm glad the animators and choreographers are improving with the inclusion of applying momentum back into the fight scenes. That was one thing Monty abused the hell out of and it looks like they're finally following suit and what the previous seasons without Monty was lacking a LOT of.
RIP Monty, your baby's getting better with every passing year. Hope it stays true to your vision.
I'm really hoping that in the rest of series 5 they bring back the amazing fight choreography that made series 1-3 so great. 4 was still a great series, but the fight scenes felt a bit too much like generic hack n slash fighting game rather than the super creative battles in prior series. I'm a bit concerned about how many split plot lines they've created though..
MyBrothersMario im so glad someone thinks the same as me!
The fights are slowly but surely getting better! I mean, just look at V5C13!
Shavono let's not forget V5C10 those gunchucks!
Its refreshing to see someone look at the new animation constructively.
For all the ppl hating on Yang and saying she is "full of herself". Full of urself means that u only care for urself. Yang is probably the most caring person in the team. She is not full of herself. She is confident in herself.
And she cares about her lil' sis.
And blake
TayTay_ Chan agreed!!
I am so glad you made this comment
that's not what full of yourself means...
Yang is a certified badass. No discussion about it, unless anyone knows a better adjective.
Super Sayian mode? Even though her semblance is basically a temper tantrum? Yaiang's words, not mine.
@Mean Timbits can't disagree with that.
3:27 Was expecting an apple to fall on her head when she hit the tree.
Harris Zeboki Same dude
Be funny if that was what defeated her
Nah, that's more RWBY chibi.
oh my god im not the only one! XD
you mean like what happened to my sister and then i punched the tree with my fist
Winter: im not always going to be there to protect you weiss
Yang: ive always got your back sis.
Whos the better sister?? They r both right in a way and both want to help their siblings equally as much...
But Weiss is part of Atlas whereas Yang is always there with Ruby
neither, yang doesn't always keep her promises since according to the writers, we can't have bumbleby AND xiao long sister moments and winter admits that she was wrong in v7
I think they mean it in different ways with winter it is physically from danger but with yang it is emotional as yang and they are both a foil to each other as winter needs to be there for Weiss emotionally not being the rigid solider but her sister and yang would be physically needing to be there as she let ruby leave after the fall of beacon and Blake leaving so she needs to be there as of volume 5 when they made this and winter had this growth in volume 8 when she abandoned everything she worked for to support Weiss and the rest of the team which is pretty good writing so not bat crwby not bad
Winter, she kept her promise and was right all along
I mean Yang hasn’t kept the promise and she was always with Blake
Does anyone else respect that this video is exactly 4:20 long? Yang is now the most dank character.
BrenGamer I wish I could be as dank as my sis
4:21 lmao
it's 420 when I watch it, I swear...
I don't get it
Neither do I-...
Yang teaching Ruby without her scythe is like Tai teaching Yang without her arm :)
Oh my god no XD
You had to bring up the arm.
Kurai Iroai Oh my god yes
Guys, she gets a new arm from Atlas!
Sorry for those who didn't watch Volumes 4 and 5 yet....
Time to kick off this morning with a Yang
Leon S. Kenady lol
* claps* awesome just awesome 😂
Leon S. Kenady dammit barb
So she has her own theme song.
GODDAMMIT BARB!!!!!
Wait, if Yang is based off Goldilocks in this short why one bear? *Two show up and fight Yang in Volume 1*
Ah she killed the baby.
Kettei Stellar-The Starhero She is. I think Monty (Who will be missed) mentioned it
Yang is actually based off of goldilocks
Liking how the end of this fight is similar to her encounter with Adam, but with a different ending. Yang rushing to protect someone she cares about and getting hit hard. Though in this case, her semblance did the job and got her out of this bad situation in one piece.
Yang is easily one of my favorite characters. This short was just another glimpse at how badass this show has become. Everything about it is consistently improving.
Awwwwwwww Ruby's hand to hand fighting style is so cute
Nathi y así uwu
... and ineffective
Ozpin taught her the most adorable headbutt ever.
yup😍
@@HaydenLau. That's a big part of what makes it so adorable.
True
This whole time watching this, I was staring at Yang's arm. ;-;
"Don't worry, I've always get your back sis."
Too bad no one had yours, Yang.
We want to watch this and see it as a memory of bonding sisters, but in reality, Yang just misses ol' Righty.
Yeah, Yang really needed a 'hand' against Adam didn't she?
they have her back, what they dont have is their hand
Max Lipiec too soon man. Too soon
Thomas Howard
Yeah, I guess you're right. It was a bit insensitive.
Just like Yang's nerve-ending lacking robot arm.
It's been a whole volume, I think we're good
I find it an interesting contrast between ruby and yang's sibling relationship shown in this trailer and Weiss and winter's relationship in the previous. Both are big sisters moving on to bigger things but wanting their little sisters to flourish without them. both engaging in combat training however while yang promises to always have ruby's back, winter shows Weiss the importance of needing to forever cover her own. Which method is best you might ask, who knows but it's interesting that both methods would be useless if used on the other younger sibling. SO the question is, which type of big sibling do you wanna be?
Novembre Pleut
personally? a little bit of both. I would want my younger sibling to be able to protect themselves whether I'm there to protect them or not. which is why I'd tell them that even if I'm not around? I'm always there for them in spirit. they have everything they need to get through it.
I would be both as well to be honest
Novembre Pleut I like tangs because even if Ruby is better at hand to hand yang is still there for her little sister
Little bit of both. I don't spoon feed her in the slightest, but if she is in any real danger... You'd best watch out
So glad they kept her fighting style relavent to the timeline. Back then, Yang SUCKED compared to how much she's improved over the show. Not to say she was bad back then - it's just nowadays she could beat that ursa in a few hits, not a whole fight. And, natural to how she was back then, she just threw a temper tantrum - as her daddy put it - to win like she always did. Well done, Rooster!
Finally a comment that makes some sense. Everyones complaining that it’s a terrible fight and it’s like, we saw yang kill an ursa with ease back in V1 so...
It was an old ursa.
Actually, this wasn't a Beowulf; it's an Ursa... & possibly in Devil Trigger mode judging by the black smoke being emitted by it. This episode took place shortly before season 1, & prolly shortly before or after her Yellow Trailer where she fought much better than this. Now I don't know if the DT thing is real or not but still, Yang should've been able to perform better than this judging by her performance against Junior & his two bouncer babe & where she easily beat up two Ursa (even though one was felled by Blake). I attribute this to the choreography team not being consistent with Yang's skills in the timeline. I count half dozen CinemaSins in this episode alone.
SwanofWar
Yangs basically frieza. Never trained a day in her life, trains now shes a god.
@Salted: Doubtful... Yang'll prolly still gets her ass kicked by Neopolitan or Adam, seeing how they both beat her effortlessly. That training wont get her far.
Just a bit disappointed because Yang's hair did not light up when her semblance activated
raph raph It doesn't always but yeah that would be cool.
was it activated? I thought you had to have aura to activate your semblance.
Tbh they can't do that anymore since they are using different animation software. RT use Miya now to animate RWBY, thats why Yang's hair wont be lit anymore. But If they can pull off a fiery Super Saiyan glow around her body, I'd be happy with that at least.
Weyran She hadn't been like that because she's trying to learn how to not rely on her semblance and her anger
I've heard it's an effect that is difficult to reproduce on Poser
Yang: Ome Wa Mou, Shinderu..
Bear: Nani!?
T3rraBlox
I understand, that you don't know what an Ursa is, but it definitely isn't a bear.
Well it LOOKS like a bear :3
You realize Ursa *is* bear, right? It's latin.
T3rraBlox nah u copied my rwby crack joke
U have a rwby crack series?
This just in, Yang continues to be simultaneously the coolest AND hottest character in the show.
MagnetoDorito yo, she's like 16
Or 17,i don't remember
Ruby was 14 at the beginning of the show and now she's 16. Yang was either 16 or 17 when the show started, so I think that puts her at 18-19
id have to disagree, she shares with coco
Yes, Coco is a goddess. I agree.
Maybe this will be lost to the big comment section but Yang saying "you can't always run away from your problems" makes so much sense for her fighting style. Her weapon requires her to be close to her enemy, confronting it upfront. You saw it, whenever she hit the grimm from the sides it barely took any damage, when she shoots it from a distance it doesn't do much. But when she goes upfront and blocks the paw, she gets a chance to shoot it to it's weakest point (i.e. the belly where it doesn't have any armour)
Heck, even her semblance requires her to be in the front, taking damage before she can fight back.
The "you can't run away from your problems" thing was a cheeky Blake joke. Foreshadowing.
+Soarel Still a fact that can be applied in real life. There are actually situations where running away isn't an option and running away from your fears doesn't help you be less afraid of them. It makes you more afraid of them and can eventually make you so scared of encountering them, you'll be too afraid to leave your house/apartment.
Actually running is always an option there's just some points in life where it's not the right thing to do. There's nothing wrong with taking a step away from it but overall trying to avoid it completely almost never works out. But in response to Yang's comment, she basically tried to force Ruby into a situation she's not comfortable with, she isn't a brawler, she doesn't have the strength for that. That's like getting a random person off the street putting them up against a champion mma fighter. You see how that would end poorly for the random right? Well in this case the random is Ruby. Even if Yang wasn't going to seriously hurt her sister, I wouldn't want to take that punch either lol. Ruby is a scythe weilder, she spends all her time training with her scythe. You can't just force someone to try to learn a new style and then get it all in one day. That's something that takes time, commitment and skill. Let's just say if Yang didn't recover as quickly as she did. Ruby would be dead because she was frozen in fear
+Kendrick BaldwinTV Not bringing the scythe at all when they were training in Grim infested woods was far from the best idea Yang ever had, but I guess that's why Ruby was team leader (That was a joke, I know that's not the real reason.). Anyway, Yang had the right idea wanting to train Ruby in hand-to-hand, since as a huntress, she's likely to find herself in situations where she's without her weapon (which happened in Volume 2 and resulted in her getting captured), or where her weapon is either inopportune or inappropriate for a situation. Fortunately, while it isn't really touched if Ruby ever improved in hand-to-hand after V2, she does at least seem capable of wielding other bladed weapons effectively, such as Penny's sword in Volume 3. We can also assume that, since her scythe functions as a firearm, she could improvise with standard gun, and while she would be out of her specialty, it seems like she could probably manage with something akin to Blake's weapon.
Honestly though, at an academy like Beacon, they really should have teams go through unarmed sparring, as well as sessions where they swap weapons with other students to round out their skill sets a bit, because overspecialization builds weaknesses, and weaknesses make one easy prey for both opportunists and strategists. Of course, you can always wind up flat out outmatched like when RNJR fought Tyrian, but that's more about general combat experience.
It’s been so long I forgot her semblance already. In fact, I couldn’t remember a single one. Craps.
Jesus Christ people. WE ALL KNOW. Monty(R.I.P.) was an amazing animator and will never be forgotten. That doesn't excuse the fact that you are criticizing the hard working teams that struggle so terribly with the unbearable "fans" who do nothing but complain about how the choreography and animation isn't as good as it was with him. I'll admit, Monty was great. He was amazing, skilled and hardworking and he was well loved by all of us. That doesn't make him the god of animation like you think he is. You guys put him up on a pedestal that almost mirrors Pyrrha's. No animator on the team feels like they're good enough to work on Monty's show because the fans are so critical of everything they do! Sure, you can criticize the short because there was no real background or plot involved. I get it. But if you decide to insult the work and struggle put into the piece of art we have, fortunately for free, right in front of us I don't understand why. I'm pretty sure Monty wanted us to love his WORK, not the quality of the choreography or animation. The whole idea of, RWBY. Sure, respect him. Love him and praise him, but don't criticize his hard working team that try their best to put on a platter his great show. They could've dropped the show in a whole, but they didn't. Just be happy about that.
*(Ren)* "THANK YOU!" *(Nora)* Pancakes!
Orderless_ Can we be friends because I feel the same way. "This is good but not like Monty" "Monty did so much better". Tbh Monty (god bless him) is awesome for making this amazing show/anime but times have changed. These so called "fans" dont even know how much of an impact Monty's death had on the team. They are improving their style but it will never be like Monty's.
lol you said struggle. yeah, all these live streams about random topics and other projects just takes it out of them. struggle... *dying.
but in all seriousness - there are hundreds of others actually talented in the same department Monty is in. Get it straight - the choreography is what got them the fanbase to begin with and telling people to shut up for the same reason they were captivated in the first place is a losing battle. looking for new talent doesn't hurt - like the choreography. Yes, I said the C word and I'll mention it to you as many times as you want to hear it, Orderless. America already has enough talentless movies in the fictional and non-fiction department and when they finally see a ray of something different we in the west rarely see, the last thing they, I want to hear is 'deal with the mediocrity! WE ALL KNOW.' If RT did know, there'd be a bit of hiring (and firing if need be) by now. That is unless rt even care about the main selling point of the whole series.
robert brooks: this to a T. It really is rooster teeth's fault that they won't hire someone to help the choreography, knowing the fanbase wants it. We all love RWBY, that's why it is so disappointing to see it like it is now.
Richard Welch I know the choreography isn't as good as it was, but that wasn't my point. I'm just tired of seeing people complain and whine so much about animation when I'm trying to read positive comments about something I love. It almost feels like all I ever see is complaining so I had to at least say something. I'm not so much speaking about how they shouldn't feel disappointed, I'm speaking up about how much they're doing it. 8 out of 10 comments I see are just complaints and it annoys me so much.
The feels..
Stealth I sniffled, not cry. SNIFFLED.
Stealth what feels???

Maybe when she was bit it was like when she lost her arm?
Icaus 伊卡洛斯 This is a throwback, happened before volume 1.
Icaus 伊卡洛斯 that doesn't make sense she bit in the torso....
One punch yang.
James corvo omg the puns
One Pun Yang
ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH!!!!!!
Now its FULL METAL YANG sisterhood😹😹😹😹
Fullmetal alchemist brotherhood
Eren Yanger
Really proud of the animation team behind this show. They've been improving and doing better, and somehow STILL bringing in Volume content quickly enough that we aren't waiting forever for each Volume/Season.
Keep it up!
I am in love with the quality of the plants in the background. It seems like such a small thing, but I've been watching since the beginning and seeing the steady increase in animation quality is beautiful!
YANG IS LOVE
YANG IS LIFE
bro ...Yang ..
She is beauty
She is grace....
She can sit all over my face
Babis Pallis lol
I COULDN'T AGREE MORE
YANG IS WIFE
Yang
Lost an arm
They look so cute in the old costumes!
they really do.
its so cool to, at least, have a glimpse of how they look with those outfits in maya.
This is why Yang is my favorite character in the show. She is super badass. She is strong. She has a cool design. She is confident, but still nice and friendly, and the best big sister ever. And she has a great weapon and fighting style.
I can't wait to see her back in Volume 5
Lelouch vi Britannia She might be a character in blazblue cross tag (most likely is going to, like 100%) are you looking forward to that?
Dont forget how funny she is. Bad jokes are best jokes
Lelouch vi Britannia hey i was watching code geass before this how convenient
You know youre lying and just like her bust.
Use your Geass to command the writers make a better story
Their relationship is so pure and good. Yang is literally the best sister ever.
Just now noticing that she has a shotgun mode 1:30 missile mode 1:50 and a melee mode 2:00 i feel rly dumb now...
Secret X same
I only knew shotgun and melee mode I didn't even think about the missile mode
Honestly I can’t see the difference despite it being point out
Oooooooh wow I didn't know until now XD
Well l'm fumber than you because l noticed because l read your comment
YANG IS STILL MOTHAF*CKIN BAE!! She kicks ass and 0:29 to 0:36 DANG YANG
JaxBlade Yang is a certified stud, it would be awesome to see another TLTT with some more RWBY characters!
JaxBlade No, she kicks ass 24/7
I didn't even notice that, lol. I was paying attention to how far they've come from volume 1 animated bubbles.
JaxBlade dude your every were
BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE MUSIC THO!!!
THE CAPTIONS
"Ruby drops dead after being attacked by her sister 2017"
"Sub Editor: Yeah right, I'm not doing this music. Find someone else."
Rosanna Seprail It was changed quickly, I believe.
Morgan Hale yeah I putted Lyrics cause the editors were lazy
Morgan Hale they changed it? Aw
At least the UK lyrics are still kinda funny

"I always got your back, sis" hurt a lot more now
No...you just did not do that🥺🥺🥺🥺
The use of recoil in RWBY is amazing
luke hazard tell me about it
I love the bond between Yang and Ruby. You can see clearly how much they love and care for each other. This vid was worth the wait :)
She protecc
She attacc
But most importantly,
She has both arms
WolfinaMiyuki dAAMMMMMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN ROASTED
She got Ruby's bacc
WolfinaMiyuki She also thicc
Teddy what
Mike Clalverl yes. Just yes
It’s been fun seeing the consistent improvement in the animation for this show. I just got done re watching volume 1 with some friends who have never watched RWBY and then I watched this video on my own. Animation-wise, things have been picking up for the series. I’m just hoping volume 5 can get the pace of the plot to move a little better than volume 4 did.
Wayneisboss Agreed. The animation has come a long way. It's just a shame that the story couldn't pick up the pace as well.
Trying to fit in SIX story arcs in the span of one season doesn't make for good pacing or development, as Volume 4 has shown.
They really need to bring RWBY back together to make the pacing right, or at the very least reduce it to maybe two story arcs.
That is a fair point... ruby doesn't know how to use her power without her scythe. She has the eyes and rose movement, but has incorporated everything she has into her weapon... looks like she'll need to learn how to deal without it... especially against all the villains who can fight with or without weapons
Owen Maas That one scene in volume 2 is a prime example XD
Either watts is gonna break her scythe or Qrow is gonna teach ruby how to be independent from it
she uses her semblance without crescent rose in the red trailer and when she is wandering around the emerald forest with Weiss, as well as during the food fight in episode 1 of volume 2
Shes to small to fist fight
+Durr Plant A little child in real life fought off an attacker who stabbed him in the head by using self-defense techniques so I'm pretty sure Ruby can learn how to fight without Crescent Rose.
OMG ITS BEEN TO LONG GOLDEN CHILD
Wow the graphics have improved once again
Alfred Kamon ciao
but doesn't it feel kinda, slow?
The Replication Not to me.
animation has improved alot but fight scenes and its physics meh...
Too bad the choreography hasn't
ruby: im not cut out for hand to hand!
also ruby: AGGRESSIVELY PUNCHES HARRIET IN THE HEAD
I have no jokes, puns or anything witty to say.
I just want to point out that I love RWBY, that I love the new animation, that I love this character short and that I really love Yang Xiao Long.
Can't wait for V5.
Lelouch vi Britannia Yet this fight still has some problems, no, I'm not talking about laws of physics (I can easly let it slide of) , I'm talking about how Ursa and Yang acted;
1. Why the hell Ursa didn't kill Ruby when it got a chance?
2. Yang lunches herself to the air, wants to hit the Ursa and lands after that... and THEN hits him?
3. Why Ursa is showing his back when he was in the front of Yang just a second ago?
4. How Yang got into it's mouth? Just how?
Yes fight has problems. But how about we just ignore logic and watch yang kicking grimms ass
ninja gość lmao
Jared Baly its not really about monetization, it's about them trying to make money on their own company rather than having to go through a 3rd party like TH-cam, I'm surprised not a ton of other TH-camrs do it as well. Money on TH-cam is complicated and you don't get much, RT being on their own really makes them way more money which lets them do way higher budget projects like this
ninja gość Believe it or not but the fights were the thing that people got into the series (don't even deny that) and now without Monty (God bless his soul) the animators work without any plan from what I've seen, heck, I bet they don't even have any storyboard for this (intended overreacting).
The amount of inconsistens is just dreadful. They need to take a break and learn one or two things from some animation teachers, I think they could do that.
Btw "gość"? Are you from Poland dear sir?
Looks like yang *gave Ruby a hand*
Captain Falcon you monster
And Adam armlessed her.
Captain Falcon bruh
It was worth every penny.
Chillll😭
YANG GOING MAMA BEAR MODE YAS
figured you'd be here with how hyped you always are with your amv's.
And cracks
You're everywhere lol
Yessssss
Do a parody :v
The message is " YOU MESS WITH MY SISTER YOU MESS WITH ME"
I literally never remember watching this short where did this come from
Yang really has improved so much. I love seeing how much she cares about Ruby.
Blake Belladonna thanks
Blake Belladona your somewhere else how you she's been doing lol
Bear grim: note to self do not show up to wreak havoc if your standing against a girl who is short tempered
Blake Belladonna BLAKE?
Good luck when you see her again, I gotta feeling that regardless of the outcome, good or bad, you are gonna end up with a few bruises.
For reference and why some of you are wondering why Volume 5 Ep 1 isn't out on TH-cam, here are the TRUE release dates and specifications:
- Volume 5 Episode 1 came out today for *paying Rooster Teeth FIRST members.*
- Volume 5 Episode 1 comes out October 17th for regular Rooster Teeth members.
- Volume 5 Episode 1 comes out October 21st for everyone else.
Frontier Brain Anabel goddamn that's a long time *downloads roosterteeth*
So it comes out 2 days on the website for non e first members after the first release??
Frontier Brain Anabel lmao I saw it in theaters and it was amazing
me too! I loved it!
Frontier Brain Anabel It's the 16th...
And it's still first member exclusive...
What time will it update?
I NEED THIS.
Did anyone else notice how Yang's hair is vibrant in the flashback but dull at the last bit (set in the show's present day)?
I leave Comments Noticed!
I looked closely, but I still don't see the difference.. Sorry.
Yang"s hair in the flashback was more fluffy and yellow but at the end it wasnt.
And this is why Yang is my favorite character!
Monty would be proud
*ricochets around the house with sheer hype and breaks everything*
*hasn't even watched it yet*
Bunny&Leah She never said she didn't care about anyone else, she just said she was exited. Chill out.
I love every single character in RWBY (ahem, well... *glances at Adam*) But I agree, this trailer was my least favorite. I expected a bit more, but it was okay-ish overall. XD
Damn , i was wondering how would team RWBY look in their original outfits with the new graphics .
Looks really strange to be honest. Ruby lost like 90% of the kuwaiiness that the old animation gave her
She was never cute.
David Mobeck Damnnnnnnnnn
I was like yang has everyone’s back. And my brother said “well Adam is like I always have you arm yang “!!!
I hate and love your brother at the same time-
That’s our girl she always kicks things off with a YANG
Gaming Moments You just made my day
Gaming Moments *throws a tomato* Boo!
Boo!
GET OUT
STAGE EXIT LEFT
Physics machine broke
Understandable
Understandable have a great day.
I instead choose to believe that Yang has enough power in her arm to overpower a steady bear 10 times her mass and create enough friction to stay in the air while at it.
Portsouth understandable have a nice day
Maybe our laws of physics, but different universe, different physics perhaps
"Learn to fight without a weapon"
> proceeds to use a weapon
Yeah, because fighting a Grimm UNARMED is a great idea. And with Yang, her fighting with or without her weapon isn't all the different anyway, because all her gauntlets give her is slightly more defense, longer range, and mobility options.
I've got to HAND it to you, you make some really good points, but don't ELBOW in on the joke.
@@Karacetamol Jaune: Boo!!!
Ren: Boooo.
Jaune: Get off the stage!
Sun: Oh yeah, now I remember. I'm supposed to be, uhh... Not here. *tries to walk away, but Ren grabs him by the tail* Hey!
By without a weapon, she means without one you'd normally hold in your hand. Fighting with your body.
Yang is best girl in RWBY.
says who
@@richingleby9227 says people who think she is best girl? Personal opinion she is the best girl.
You spelled Weiss wrong
I want to see Ruby kick ass in hand to hand combat
Kross Gonzalez same, so do I . I think she would be even more badass
I mean, with her super speed, she would be perfect for high DPS.
I just remembered that one scene from The Incredibles where they´re all in this jungle, and the kids get seperated, and the boy punches that henchman 10 or so times per second.
I think they perfected the art style at this point. They have gotten pretty close to monty-like choreography, but can do so much with the new style the couldn’t with poser.
What they really need to do is make the projectiles fly straight.
Lackus Shock It makes it look cooler and I have no problem with it but I can understand why people don't like it
Yeah those magic already physics defying dust explosions REALLY need to follow the regular rules of projectiles.
Caleb Meilink-Smith yah, the gravity seems really floaty, but the projectiles seem to end up in the same place they would have as if they were flying straight, so I can get past it.
Well Monty at least followed the proper laws of physics with the projectiles.
But here we are seeing them being curved upwards....
EDIT: Besides... Im pretty sure animating a straight projectile is alot easier to animate than that curvaceous mess.
The one and only!!
LabyLovesDolls Yang Xiao Long
yeah "The one and only" han--, to soon?
LabyLovesDolls givin her little sis all the hands she needs.
LabyLovesDolls The one and ONLY
This fight, right here, just shows how much RWBYS Animation has changed. It get's better every year. And it actually looked a lot smoother compared to past year fights.
Yang in there Rwby fans
Commando Lucifer nice m8
Get out
full force got hit by the hype train
Umber Steelbred
CHOO CHOO!
Umber Steelbred ALL ABOARD WOOO
In this short, Yang seems a bit more hot headed than usual... then again, in the end of V3 she was being a bit cold. Maybe in Volume 5, Yang will finally be just right.
(This is a bad joke, not legitimate criticism. Thank you)
*claps*
well played
If only you knew. Get back to me when you've seen the first chapter of volume 5
what do you mean "this is a bad joke" this is a GREAT joke!
Damn it! You beat me to the 'PUNch' on this one!
GOD DAMMIT BARB
I love Yang. Her hair is fluffy. 💛
Well...NOT ANYMORE!!
Yang’s hair is fluffy, smooth and hot! No pun intended XD

😭😭😭😭😭
I love the music!
I've been searching for the name for hours... :c
Did you ever find it?
No, maybe they haven't released the clear version yet
its called crash and burn and no its not out yet
how do you know what its called?
English UK Captions: *The sound of Bumblebee approaching*
WHAT
thats her bike
So her bike is named after the shipping name?
May Nunez no, the bike was named before the ship
Comrade Necron yeeeeeah... the shipping thing in the fandom is getting really out of hand and honestly some devolve into cancerous methods to the point they try to shove it down the throat of people who just want to watch
English UK Captions: (I don't know the song lyrics right now so I won't say them out)
I died xD
When you drop everything your doing because you get a RWBY notification.
Well... What happens
I just realized that when Yang was thrown by the Grimm she did the same mid air pose when she lost her arm after charging Adam back in Volume 3.
I noticed something, before, Yang's hair was golden, while now, it's closer to straw colored, like her Dad's. Lack of exposure to direct sunlight maybe, or maybe just a sign of her growing?
ShadowL Drago no, its just a change in production quality, if it were a sign of her growing they wouldn't be showing it before the first episode even began.
Not what I meant, what I meant was during the flashback, Yang's hair was golden, when we returned to "present day", it was closer to Taiyang's hair color.
ShadowL Drago Yeah you can see It's slightly different.
Oh good, I'm not seeing things.
ShadowL Drago oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh riiiiiiiiiight. Yeah that makes sense.
Everyone is talking about how her semblance shouldn't have activated while I'm over here admiring the awesome animation and fight.
i have new respect for jaune after this video. aside from not remembering to put his shield up, he took down one of the same Ursa Majors by himself with just a sword and no anime powers.
Hyun-Ae| Everyone is taking about how they’re admiring the awesome animation and fight while I’m over here wondering where season 5 is.
extricate Season 5 starts next week on TH-cam for most people, First members on the RT website saw it yesterday.
When your eyes turn red you are YANGRY
GOD DAMNIT BARB!
Take a snickers your not yourself when your angry.
DaEpicFirestar yang would be proud
Show this to Barbara, I'm sure she'll like it XDD
DaEpicFirestar
Good one
I keep coming back to watch this. There's a lot I like about it: the expressions, the voices and of course, the animation, all capped with a heart-warming message at the end.
Now THIS...
This is the kind of fight choreography I've been looking for for the past season.
huh, guess you missed like three or four episodes in the last season then. might wanna go rewatch them so you don't miss out on anything
Exactly!
Meh.
Yeah, some were pretty bad but RNJR vs Tyrian was pretty good, and Qrow vs Tyrian was damn amazing.
Just bugged me how they had to keep stopping for RNJR to cut in, but it made sense.
Widdle baby knows big words XD.
3:10 Oh that was a nice high five. Finn and Jake should join Yang and the Grimmy Teddy
Still not quite on the same level as the first couple seasons but think fight looked much better than the ones of last season. I don't think it's fair to expect the same level or style as when Monty was in charge but it's nice to see that maybe they took some of the criticisms from last season and used them to improve.
Also, that look on Rubys face as the ursa was charging and she takes the fighting stance as best as she could was perfect. Hope this is a sign of what we can expect for the who next season. Really made Ruby feel like a unique character again.
Yeah the fight choreography here got even closer to Monty's choreography style
Idk, Tyrian vs Qrow was really cool, and while not a replication, I feel like it was solid and was a lot closer to Monty's style of choreography than any of the rest. Arguably closer than even this in my opinion. This isn't counting V3 though, as Cinder vs Pyrrha, Penny vs Pyrrha, and bits of some of the others were also really on point.
Out of volume 3's fights the most complicatedly choreographed fight was Yang vs Mercury. It's alsmost as if Monty animated it even though he didn't.
Actually, Monty choreographed most of that fight! twitter.com/shanenewville/status/676104300825722880
Geminidragon I agree, it's cool to see them genuinely trying to take criticism and improve their work, I respect that. A lot of these new guys are self taught as well, so I'm hoping they'll continue to improve as the series goes on.
"Boy you shouldnt stare into these eyes of fire. Your going to regret this little fight~." holy hell that caught me off guard.
Every two seasons the art style will get better is what I've learned
Can't wait for season seven
Ruby doesn't have her scythe but Yang is never... DISARMED.
Red Reaper except in volume 3.
Red Reaper >:(
that's a question why she doesn't have her crescent rose with her
🖕🏻
You guys have got to stop,
You may always have Ruby's back but no one gave you a hand
Iana Bricks This made me want to laugh and cry at the same time
+neon crystal and he could probably give her a metal handy.
Iana Bricks I don't know whether to laugh at the comment or hate you
I don't see a reason to choose. I will laugh, cry, hate and respect you all at once, while confusing everyone around me.
Iana Bricks I bet loses her back
2:17 digging the gauntlet based mobility
It's a great mechanic.
Browsing through the comments, most of them how the fighting scenes are not that great which you often see in every RWBY vids. Guys, seriously? Fans are sooo hard to please. I love it anyway, it's nice they are adding more plot than kicking butts every time.
Mae Valiente I know right I really can't comprehend why everyone is looking at it through what is bad, why can't we just enjoy how beautiful the animation is?
Volcanic_Udder ikr
Let people criticize things, if it’s too much for you just unplug your computer.
Mae-Neau there a difference between criticizing and complains people think just because out it's not Monty it's automatically awful there are more good animators then him.yes Monty great animator but give the other animators a Chance
Edwin Roberson
We gave them a chance 2 volumes ago and some just don’t like the new style; get over it. People have a right to their preferences.
YANG LOOKS SO GODDAMN COOL I HOPE ONE DAY RAVEN GIVES HER A HAND
OH WAIT
XNoah _ 2003X you are terrible

XNoah _ 2003X I have to Hand it to you that was a good one.
i guess you could say that this got out of hand hAGAGAH
"Goddamn it Barb"
the video 4:20 long you know this is gunna be lit
Same.
They're improving the technical aspects of their action scenes. But they're still need to work a lot. I enjoyed the music, and the contrast between past and present Yang. Well Done RT
