- Actually Morbius, it was Weiss who used the 'paint our nails...etc' line, she was being sarcastic. - Yeah, Adam _Taurus_ is a bull Faunus with horns 8P.

Penny! Sweet bean! “It’s a combat skirt.” “Yeah!” *high five* Every time. Every time it gets me. These dorks. Yang is my favorite character. No contest.
I always thought if the monkey faunus was called a rapscallion to his face, he'd totally own it. He would start introducing himself as a rapscallion. I imagine him going "Rapscallion? Yeah, I'm a rapscallion. Hey teammate, I'm a rapscallion!" Big Han Solo, Scoundrel vibes. About Blake's faunus heritage: the reason we didn't see her landing strategy in the Emerald Forest is that she is a cat, she would just land on her feet.
The following is a bit of discussion that might be spoilery so have care when reading. I wanted to mention something that I noticed or had a thought about when seeing this scene again for the upmteenth time. The scene where Blake takes her bow off in front of the statue of Huntsmen in Beacon. The shot focus down from the human huntsman to the Grimm beneath their feet and it made me think of a particular dialogue that comes later on. "Humanity treated us like monsters, so we donned the faces of monsters." The focus shows the feeling of guilt that Blake has for being a part of the organization. It's not, in my opinion, a shallow metaphor referring to faunus being animals, but rather to the practice of the White Fang wearing Grimm masks.
I know I'm definitely looking forward to them doing the whole. It's definitely been an interesting and unique take on the series; I also enjoy the banter and energy between the both of them and can't wait to see what guesses/predictions Casper comes up with for the characters and lore.
Weirdly, the Blake reveal didn't hit me as hard as supposed to. Because my brain saw her bow as cat ears in the trailer. And I was 100% sure she did not wear a bow in the trailer (I just checked, she did....) But thanks to my brain, the moment the White Fang subplot got introduced I immideately thought "okay, Blake totally was part of that, cause heist and she's a cat person"... so, I guess, I sort of spoiled that to myself?...
This episode's music was by Jeff Williams and Alex Abraham! Soul, you continue to be HILARIOUS. I had also forgotten how much and how little actually happened in this episode...
Ngl I wondered if Penny was like a robot or automaton or something like that, and then when Mortius said the name connection is quite obvious it took me a little bit of thinking, but I'm pretty sure I've clocked it!
Because Mortius is such a RWBY nerd, I fully expect them to react to the World of Remnant series, but in case he isn't already thinking about it, we need to remind him
11:45 Actually it isn't, it's what _Weiss_ mockingly said to Ruby. Though I'm still not entirely clear what Weiss and Ruby are talking about here. On the one hand, Ruby's question feels like she's asking if Penny is mocking her like Weiss was, but Weiss' reply doesn't really seem to merci up with that unless she's insulting her past self, which I don't think she's quite ready for yet. EDIT: Sniped by the editor again, good job.
@sanders_billy I watch a lot of RWBY reactors, neither they nor their editors (if they have them) typically have as encyclopedic a knowledge of RWBY as I do.
22:11 I'm assuming Atlas and Mistral that would be the case Vacuo it would be illegal and idk about Vale..... the 4 nations, that were hinted at in this episode, would act differently on the matter.
SPOILER WARNING for the White Fang group. Just joining the group isent in itself illegal just like joining the Hells Angel biker gang isent illegal. But there really is only 1 reson why u would ever join the White Fang at this point of the show. So u would be doing criminal activity after u join making u a criminal. Not everyone is out stealing things or attacking humans but everyone knows what is going on so even though some may not directly do illegal things they would be criminals by aiding criminal activity. So joining the White Fang isent illegal but u join it knowing that u will be doing criminal activity after u join.
I'm not entirely sure this is true. We find out later that the majority of the criminal activity is led by Adam's group within the White Fang and that not all in the White Fang agree with or even condone his actions.
Excellent question about whether being a White Fang member is in itself illegal. We have sadly so many examples in our own world of it not mattering - the criminalization of merely wearing head coverings in some places comes to mind - that Weiss's attitude seems very believable and probably typical across Remnant 😞
So, I’m exposing myself as trash for a certain ship when I say this, but… Penny’s introduction? Making a point to immediately bond with the main MC and no one else in the main cast? Combined with the fact the writers wanted to include her before season 1 ended, despite her not being connected to this arc of the plot? It’s VERY much a typical Love Interest introduction.
@@thelom7459 fine, thanks for asking. I just noticed that you left a youtube comment making a correction that was brought up within the video itself five seconds after the mistake was made is all
@ you got bored in the five seconds between them getting that wrong and the correction happening in the video? not saying that's an issue, just impressive timing
In the vaguest way possible - tell us your fav RWBY character! 👇
“Do you believe in destiny?”
Hard to pick so 🐝
"Sal-u-tations!"
Rain resistance
"YANG!!!"
Nice tidbit: in the episodes before the reveal, you can see that Blake's "bow" twitch every now and then when there's a sound
I didn't realize the bow was supposed to be a bow! I thought it was cat years from the beginning 😂
@@Cataly_ely I mean, it's literally staring everyone in the face. It's not like they really did a big effort to hide it. She has cat eyes, after all xD
You see the events of Weiss' scar in the White trailer, there were no faunus present.
- Actually Morbius, it was Weiss who used the 'paint our nails...etc' line, she was being sarcastic.
- Yeah, Adam _Taurus_ is a bull Faunus with horns 8P. Ears or tails are the most common animal traits, but there are other options that pop up as well.

Blake being a catgirl. The title being “Stray” she runs away. So that makes her a stray cat. Ba dum tssssss

Ooooh yes, the Grimm masks. Makes totally sense.
I really hope this series continues with Volume 2 even though it hasn't been the most watched series you guys are doing
The first episode of Volume 2 is the episode I look forward to the most in every reaction series. lol
I know I'm definitely looking forward to them doing the whole. It's definitely been an interesting and unique take on the series; I also enjoy the banter and energy between the both of them and can't wait to see what guesses/predictions Casper comes up with for the characters and lore.
Remember, Patreon is well ahead of us on YT, so presumably they are already well into Volume 2.
@@taylorkeating6884 Unfortunately no looking at their Patreon, they have not started Volume 2 yet

Casper's Baby face in the trailer. XD
omg not the RUN audio lmfao

For, all, issues of legality there are 4 countries so legal can vary by location.
With this reveal i like to think Blake is a combo of beauty and beast while adam is some of the negative aspects of beast as well as Gaston.

Love Penny and all the Quarters she brings to the show
@@razgriz2276bad! *spray bottle*
For the gang analogy just use team rocket
12:00 HOW DARE YOU USE THE DOKI DOKI ANXIETY AUDIO
neat 😂
I love that Ruby is empathic to both Weiss and Blake
I love how no one suspected Blake had cat ears, but that bow was so conspicuous haha
Penny is best girl, there is no argument to be had here, it's simply fact
I have a new Scylla animatic for you to check out. It’s by a person named gentle dragon. The Scylla design is incredible.
I always thought Adam's horns were like Armadillo ears or something
…
I thought the bow were cat ears…
I literally couldn’t see the twist coming, cuz I twisted myself
"I have a group in mind but I don't want to make that comparison--"
"DON'T DO IT DON'T DO IT DON'T DO IT"
Dodged a bullet the size of Alaska
BATTLE SKIRTS!!! ❤
I know Adam's horns are supposed to be a bulls but what species of bull has horns like that!?!

I had such bad eyesight when I first watched this that I never saw Blake’s bow as a bow. She was a cat girl from day one.
Man this episode was my favorite as a kid- i love blake so much

I might be biased but this Monkey Dude si representing Monkey King. I have no proof But no doubts
Fun fact; Suns and Ruby’s VA are married IRL. Sun x Ruby is appropriately named Gun(chuck)s n Roses

Sorry, but Ruby didn't say the "painting nails" line to Weiss. Weiss said it sarcastically to Ruby.
