@@benjaminc.9015 …phrasing it like that ups my acceptance of the Lewis/Ozma duo possibility dramatically. “Just not the full true story” seems like a very Ozpin style move.
A lot of people were crying about how "suddenly Jaune gets magicked back into his younger self" but fail to see the gray streak in his hair still. The fact he has his memories still. He'll come back V10 a significantly better fighter than he ever was. He had countless years to perfect his style.
Yeah people when uproar see jaune go back to his yiung self not even see the small but see CRYSTAL CLER WHITE HAIR jaune is now better person and fighter
Makes me wonder if well finnaly get WeissXJaune? He's finnaly mature and strong and she's grown and matured, i miss Pyrrha, but it's time for Jaune to move on
I kind of hope Ozpin knows nothing of the Ever After beyond the story just because it'd be hilarious to see him blindsided with something like this for a change
I am 100% on board with the theory that Lewis went on to be one of Ozpins former selves. Thats what he meant by living through fairy tales, thats why he let Jaune into Beacon. He had Lewis's memories of the knight Jaune would become and stories about team rwby and jnpr. Doubt Jaune told Lewis and Alex everything, but enough for Ozpin to take special interest and trust in them.
I mean... Ozpin literally lived through many of the Fairy Tales, one third of the ones in the show are about his life. That said, I do like your theory. Especially since we don't know about his pre-Ozpin incarnation.
Yes, this. I always thought it was weird how Jaune cheated his way into Beacon. Even Glynda thought it was strange why he was let in, but Ozpin was like "nah its cool." He didn't have silver eyes like Ruby, so why? I think Ozpin/Ozma remembered Jaune from when he was Lewis.
@@MrGksarathything is is that the ending is v9 the tree returns them to not "where" but "when". Time shenanigans could easily be before ozpin especially since Jaune is before times. Lewis also seemed to be Oscar's age. Only one main greiveance is Lewis' name. Ozpin, Os(z)car, Ozma. Thats the naming conventions for Ozpin
@@FinalTimeHero the "before ozpin" is completly thrown out the window when you realize they have modern Atlas(and Mistral and Vale) airships as well as the Amnity Arena WITH The Antenna upgrade there, it can not be a time before atlas fall
I thought Alyx was evil the whole time after Jaune told Team RWBY what happened, but seeing how she really wanted to fix the Ever After before she had the chance to return home, I realize how wrong I was
But that the point of rwby volume 9 lesson two lesson Numb: 1 never judge the book by its cover people can change evil to good good to evil there is no white vs black its always gray and what the people see not knowing the full story Numb: 2 we must accept the past and move on to be a better person than our past self we must learn our past mistake and change the way we are now and be better
She actually was. That's the point. She, however got better after talking to the tree but was unfortunately killed before she could start making amends.
@@NRG-REC thanks. So im guessing Louis/Lewis escaped ever after and told the story he wished it had happened? What about Jaune. How is he alive after that scene where Alyx killed him?
The condition that the gods gave Salem to make her not immortal makes a lot more sense after volume 9. All the everafterins understood that once their role was fulfilled they should reincarnate to get a new purpose. Salem couldn’t understand that thought process when ozpin died so until she understands the significance of life and death she will walk the face of remnant
There is something a little heartwarming in the fact Jaune's kindness did reach Alyx despite his initial impression. Took an Origin God's help but it did reach her and she paid it back in full.
Well judging by the way the armored lady said it, she said Team RWBY was going *when* they’re needed. So I feel like just enough time passed for Vacuo to fortify against Salem
@@cashx370 true. My thoughts about what we see indicate at least 1 month has passed, with a maximum of 1.5-2 years have passed. Humanity can only hold off Salem for so long, and she would only wait so long before making a move. I suggest a point of 7-8 months jump forward. That feels like enough time for Atlas specialists, Mantle laborer's, and Vacuo leadership to gather Mistral leadership, get Amity over to Vacuo, collect dust, and fortify the kingdom. Luckily they are maybe all getting united for the big fight?
@@notquiteallisonif they are going to be united I think all comes to the possibility that Salem would actually aquire all 4 relics, but by doing so she would unite the humanity against her(by the main cast) and gods would actually help the humanity.
@@MeemahSN Oscar is based on the little prince as well. CRWBY calls him their little prince. You are right about the first one though. But his main allusion is the little prince they call back to it a lot.
@@thespy6707 Oscar is based on the little prince as his secondary allusion, but he is primarily based on Princess Ozma/Tip from the Oz stories! Take a look through google! It all makes quite a bit of sense. I personally love his Little Prince allusion because it ties into Ruby really well and I am a diehard Rosegarden shipper haha.
When you think about it, it makes you question why Ozpin kept his trap shut while Goodwitch kept talking about his transcripts. Now we know part of it.
This might be a long shot but I think when Ozpin said he lived his Fair share of fairy tails, he must have reincarnated as Lewis (before or after) he fell with his sister Alex.
Perhaps the solution to defeat Salem, is to leave her on remnant and let everyone else go back to the ever after, closing its doors and leaving her alone to walk the world forever
One that is kind of a bad idea cuz she can reform herself to go anywhere 2 the ea is a pretty dangerous place possibly more dangerous than all the stuff that has been going on in Remnant so no
Theory I haven’t seen yet…. What if Alyx and Lewis were children of an Ozma reincarnation? “Inventor Oz” was shown with two young children, possibly a boy and a girl? My poor eyes think they had similar skin tones to Alyx and Lewis. Hanging around with a dad who rocked magic powers and was applying them in new inventive ways would probably present opportunities for them to wander down the inter dimensional rabbit hole. This leads to a lot of the same issues I have Lewis himself playing host to Ozma regarding paradoxes, prior knowledge, etc. But it would be an area to explore where Ozma’s mistakes have been costly both on a grand scale and on a personal level. *Edit* apparently I missed the silver eyed elephant in the room, or rather that Inventor Oz’s kids had silver eyes.
That Ozcarnation’s children had silver eyes so I don’t think it could have been them. However perhaps that Ozcarnation was Lewis and exposure to the Ever After/the Tree led to his children having silver eyes? Thus silver eyed people are descendants of those who have been to the Ever After?
Notice how there is so many gaps? A whole season and we still don’t know what the “choice” she was fleeing was”, what changed her at the herbalist etc etc etc
I like the Grey. It shows how he matured. Its like in the X- Men. When the girl got the white hair after magneto use that machine to turn everyone to mutants.
I'm theorizing that team RWBY, possibly in volume 10, might think of the idea that the whole remnant should live in the ever after instead, like once they got all of the relics, they'll make that portal again back to the ever after, and leave Salem behind in remnant to rot. Hence, perhaps that'll be their finale.
I think the blacksmith is Alyx. When she was killed by the Curious Cat, she came back as the blacksmith. Remember Alyx wanted to fix things in the end, who better to fix things than a blacksmith.
I have a theory that Lewis was a past reincarnation of Ozma, but Ozma couldn't talk to Lewis because of the Ever After, but he did see what Lewis saw, including Jaune. That is why Ozpin let Jaune into Beacon Academy.
You know, for all that I knew RWBY played hard and fast with fairy tales, I'm embarrassed at how long it took me to realize volume nine was based in "Alice's Adventures In Wonderland".
I think the cat and the Jabberwalker are the only ones who can truly kill (they were made directly by the gods with their roles/purpose/etc). Alyx is dead. The blacksmith is just part of the tree.
@@chatterycasque9594 I don't... I'm not saying you're wrong or anything, but I don't see how what you said has anything to do with what I said. Not picking a fight, just genuinely don't see what the cat and jabberwalker killing and Alyx being dead has to do with it.
@@Dinomatrix21 it was in response to you saying Alyx became the blacksmith. The blacksmith existed long before the gods created Remnant, so I wasn’t sure if Alyx could become the blacksmith. And the cat killing Alyx thing was to cement that Alyx didn’t reincarnate/ascend, she’s dead for real
I think there's something a lot of people haven't addressed, Oz seemed to know about the Story at the start but by the End of the Volume there seems to be conflicting information about the fact Alyx acc didn't leave & Lewis did however, how the hell did Alyx & Lewis even get to the Ever After? RWBY & J+N fell into the Void of the Central Location that the Staff of Creation made so unless Relics and/or Oz were involved, there's not much else that would lead them there
I never saw anyone ever asked how Alyx and Lewis ended up in the ever after, like did they used the staff of creation too? Also look how Ciel Soleil looks similar to them as if they're relatives, what if they're related to each other?
Jaune is back to his normal self also why did they took my boy hair of way, please just let him keep it he deserves it and not that God awful banana hair 😭.
@Blackknightjoe I guess it's possible, but I dunno, I kinda feel like a lot of the usual Everafter rules don't apply to it, much like with the Cat. Even if it did Ascend though, it probably would be exactly the same or necessarily have the same traits and purpose when it was returned.
For people who think Alyx is the Blacksmith. Don’t even compare her to the blacksmith. The blacksmith seem to know about the existence of the twin god are actually the god of the world. So it’s impossible, but the rat or the mouse is actually Alyx is also possible but the deer is also possible to be alyx.
I personally don't really like the theory that Louis is an Ozcarnation, and instead I suggest something more logical that would fit in. We know based on the fairytale series that Ozpin is telling us most of the stories. I would like instead of Ozpin just being a future incarnation of Louis, that he actually befriended Louis. Like I think that Oz was researching fairytales to piece together some history that he missed (like the evolution/creation of the faunus) and came across Louis' story. (Also, if Louis ended up where he was "needed most" perhaps he ended up in the life that Oz lead researching fairytales, because the Tree/Blacksmith knew what needed to happen?) From there, he maybe gathered some information on the Ever After, like how to get there, but refused to venture from his path. This ties in with how Oz responded to Oscar about the story. I would like to know the whole fairytale as Louis wrote it. Like what was the choice Alyx was faced with?
My thoughts on the finale is mixed. It was a wasted opportunity to change Ruby's physical appearance (but still retain her memories). I was hoping she would age up 2 years to match her teammates. No one really changed, except dealing with their traumas. So much wasted potential. Finally we get to see Summer Rose, even though her final mission is still a mystery. The lore drop about the origin of the two gods was unexpected, but welcomed. This information will prove to be useful leverage against Salem. Disappointed that the cat turned out to just be a villain and we likely won't see it again. Would have been nice if the theory that the cat is the relic of choice is the twist. Then their journey to Ever After would not be wasted. At least Neo gets closure.
Based on the previous seasons, pretty sure they're saving any redesigns for Volume 10, 'cause it's usually been about 3 volumes for each look. So going off the track record for the rest of the series, I expect next volume will be when they change anything looks wise.
they somehow hinted at it, the "door" the brothers left the ever after for remnant trough would "remain open for them and all their future creations" so depending where that door is in the real world, or how its even acessed there(it may be a metaphorical door in remnant for example) and in the end how they ended up "falling trough the world" isnt really important either
filler season we are back where we started nothing changed nothing chappend all the stories go nowhere. Ruby has crysis bcs she is bad leader and then when she can change decides to return as a bad leader she was
Poor girl. they will have to re writ her book since its not fully done yet and they have to M the cat being the bad guy too since it was his fault that she die. And tell the story about some what since she the new hero in the book
Ties nicely into how this world's fairy tales are never what they appear to be on the surface. There is always another side to it, a side even Ozpin wouldn't know which I find fascinating.
Theres always a 2 sides of a story or in many sides.
It's ironic how even Ozpin doesn't know the whole story about Alyx. Make you wonder how he will react about the Ever After and the Grimm brothers's origins.

I have a theory that Lewis was a past reincarnation of Ozma, but Ozma couldn't talk to Lewis because of the Ever After, but he did see what Lewis saw, including Jaune.
That is why Ozpin let Jaune into Beacon Academy.
Did anyone felt resemblence to the blacksmith and alyx or was it just me?
You know, for all that I knew RWBY played hard and fast with fairy tales, I'm embarrassed at how long it took me to realize volume nine was based in "Alice's Adventures In Wonderland".
So... am I alone in thinking the part of herself that Alyx left in the Ever After fused with the tree and became the blacksmith?
I think the cat and the Jabberwalker are the only ones who can truly kill (they were made directly by the gods with their roles/purpose/etc). Alyx is dead. The blacksmith is just part of the tree.
@@chatterycasque9594 I don't... I'm not saying you're wrong or anything, but I don't see how what you said has anything to do with what I said.
Not picking a fight, just genuinely don't see what the cat and jabberwalker killing and Alyx being dead has to do with it.
@@Dinomatrix21 it was in response to you saying Alyx became the blacksmith. The blacksmith existed long before the gods created Remnant, so I wasn’t sure if Alyx could become the blacksmith. And the cat killing Alyx thing was to cement that Alyx didn’t reincarnate/ascend, she’s dead for real
@@chatterycasque9594 Ahhh, I see now. You know what, that makes a bit more sense. Thanks for the explanation.
I wonder why Alyx promised the cat to take him to Remnant, but Louis didn't
Ozpin is Luis im calling it
Tbh for a while i completely forgot that the whole original premise was that the characters were supposed to be based off of fairy tales lmao
Do the one of Taiyang and Summer next!
Hoping that we could see that Jaune could meet Lewis in Remnant and Lewis made a storybook about the Rusted Knight then gave it to Jaune.
what if Louis was Ozpin and that is why he was more interested in Jaune and allowed him into Beacon despite knowing that Jaune had cheated?
I think there's something a lot of people haven't addressed, Oz seemed to know about the Story at the start but by the End of the Volume there seems to be conflicting information about the fact Alyx acc didn't leave & Lewis did however, how the hell did Alyx & Lewis even get to the Ever After? RWBY & J+N fell into the Void of the Central Location that the Staff of Creation made so unless Relics and/or Oz were involved, there's not much else that would lead them there
ngl i kinda liked the long hair deep voice jaune 😭😭 hoping he gets that warrior's ponytail again
I forgot about Oscar
Yo he still got the white strands when turned young again
I never saw anyone ever asked how Alyx and Lewis ended up in the ever after, like did they used the staff of creation too? Also look how Ciel Soleil looks similar to them as if they're relatives, what if they're related to each other?
I actually have an theory about ozpin and the ever after like what if he was inside luis, but had decided to remain dormant.
THAT ALL MAKES SO MUCH SESNE NOW
Lewis is Ozpin. I'm sure.
I wish Jaune kept the beard
Jaune is back to his normal self also why did they took my boy hair of way, please just let him keep it he deserves it and not that God awful banana hair 😭.
I have a theory, will the Jabberwalker kill Salem?
I completely theorized EA residents would come with Rwby to remnant and join the fight against Salem including the Jabberwalker joining
I'm pretty sure Neo killed the Jabberwalker...
@@8elementallords doesn’t it come back though with the tree mechanics?
@@blackknightjoe4972 exactly cause no one said the afteran that causes non ascension can't ascend itself
@Blackknightjoe I guess it's possible, but I dunno, I kinda feel like a lot of the usual Everafter rules don't apply to it, much like with the Cat. Even if it did Ascend though, it probably would be exactly the same or necessarily have the same traits and purpose when it was returned.
He looked better with the long hair and beard
What if Alyx was one of the maidens.
She had no attachment to Remnant so there would be a missing maiden which there is not
@@saiyanfang1047 Well it was a thought
"She wasn't the same girl" yeah cuse she was a boy
I think Lois is ozpin … It makes sense why he allowed Jaune to cheat his way to Beacon
I still have no idea why the people Cinder knocked off the path didn't appear in the Ever After.
they likely died from Cinder's blast because they were civilians and likely did not have unlocked or activated auras
Is it possible that Oscar might be a descendent from the brother of Alex that got back home.
For people who think Alyx is the Blacksmith. Don’t even compare her to the blacksmith. The blacksmith seem to know about the existence of the twin god are actually the god of the world. So it’s impossible, but the rat or the mouse is actually Alyx is also possible but the deer is also possible to be alyx.
I personally don't really like the theory that Louis is an Ozcarnation, and instead I suggest something more logical that would fit in. We know based on the fairytale series that Ozpin is telling us most of the stories. I would like instead of Ozpin just being a future incarnation of Louis, that he actually befriended Louis. Like I think that Oz was researching fairytales to piece together some history that he missed (like the evolution/creation of the faunus) and came across Louis' story. (Also, if Louis ended up where he was "needed most" perhaps he ended up in the life that Oz lead researching fairytales, because the Tree/Blacksmith knew what needed to happen?) From there, he maybe gathered some information on the Ever After, like how to get there, but refused to venture from his path. This ties in with how Oz responded to Oscar about the story. I would like to know the whole fairytale as Louis wrote it. Like what was the choice Alyx was faced with?
Wait…..was ozpin in Alyx mind at the time of this story
My thoughts on the finale is mixed.
It was a wasted opportunity to change Ruby's physical appearance (but still retain her memories). I was hoping she would age up 2 years to match her teammates.
No one really changed, except dealing with their traumas. So much wasted potential.
Finally we get to see Summer Rose, even though her final mission is still a mystery.
The lore drop about the origin of the two gods was unexpected, but welcomed. This information will prove to be useful leverage against Salem.
Disappointed that the cat turned out to just be a villain and we likely won't see it again. Would have been nice if the theory that the cat is the relic of choice is the twist. Then their journey to Ever After would not be wasted.
At least Neo gets closure.
Based on the previous seasons, pretty sure they're saving any redesigns for Volume 10, 'cause it's usually been about 3 volumes for each look. So going off the track record for the rest of the series, I expect next volume will be when they change anything looks wise.
I feel like ozpin was luis
They never explained how Alyx and her brother ended up in the Everafter???
they somehow hinted at it, the "door" the brothers left the ever after for remnant trough would "remain open for them and all their future creations" so depending where that door is in the real world, or how its even acessed there(it may be a metaphorical door in remnant for example)
and in the end how they ended up "falling trough the world" isnt really important either
Dude. This shit came out of nowhere haha
was Lewis an Ozpin reincarnation?
I feel like the video clips could've been ordered differently to make more sense and be more fluent
Wait what happened when the twin got to the tree?
She died and her brother returned home.
To my understanding
@@d.sack2727 so Luis is the one that write the story, and did the cat kill her?
@@alexpricefield6969 The cat killed Alyx but a part of herself stayed to fix what she had broken, and Lewis was the one who wrote the story.
@@alexpricefield6969 IDK
filler season we are back where we started nothing changed nothing chappend all the stories go nowhere. Ruby has crysis bcs she is bad leader and then when she can change decides to return as a bad leader she was
Mid AF volume
Poor girl. they will have to re writ her book since its not fully done yet and they have to M the cat being the bad guy too since it was his fault that she die. And tell the story about some what since she the new hero in the book
