Just gonna throw this out there. -The main characters are siblings -Their mother is dead -One of them has a mechanical arm -One wears a red hooded jacket at all times -We have characters voiced by Vic Mignogna, Aaron Dismuke, and Kent Williams
Does anyone else feel refreshed to hear a song about a character who has gone through a difficult situation, but instead of moping around and crying (like a lot of films, series, anime... you name it, they all do it eventually) the character ACTUALLY took this to heart and decided to improve, overcome their weaknesses and come back stronger than before? Right now, this is personal for her, and whoever stands in her way better pick a god and pray... Because she's armed and ready for action. Dunno, just feel like we don't see enough characters like these in media nowadays, and instead we get crying snoozefests until something happens.
To be fair, a lot of people that have gone through traumatic experiences do tend to... sit around and "mope". Even Yang did it. Yang did it A LOT. When Ruby left months ago, Yang was "moping". And Yang probably didn't get the nerve to put on the arm in just a couple days, her arc most likely had time lapses too.
Sort of. Whether or not there were time lapses we don't know (though there most likely were). However what I meant was that they all managed to reignite their fire and find a reason to fight again (Volume 5 was pretty much this). We don't know how much time passed, but I was more talking about characters going through these events and supposedly "recovering" they still aren't fully back up on their feet and they make stupid mistakes (when Yang passes up the opportunity to beat Mercury's shit-eating grin and instead opts to go for the relic I jumped for joy). This is character development, not having them become some edgy shadow of their former selves.
Man I can't wait for Volume 5 but the main reason is to see our badass fireball kick ass again... like she's suppose to. Seeing her with her confidence back at the end of volume 4 made me so damn happy.
Like I TRIED so hard and compromised my comfortability to try and make it work. Even after everything I've heard about him, I still even now have a glimmer of hope for us. But I have to end this. It hasn't made me feel good in a LONG time. I just trusted too much.
The moral of this story is; "ADAM GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE I WILL BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU AND MAKE YOU MY BITCH! NOW GO GET ME MY GODDAMNED STRAWBERRY SUNRISE!"
Thing is, Adam's Sembelence seems to be based on blocking hits with his SWORD, and using that energy. (Look how Blake took his sword from him.) I'm willing to bet he's like Ruby, useless in a fight without Wilt
Dang, If I understand well the meaning of this song, Yang is SALTY AS HELL about what Adam did to her XD! This guy is gonna be DESTRUC- next time they see each other hahahahaha
Yang b stubborn... Not stupid.... Important distinction there :D But I think the point of the song is less that she's pissed at Adam and more that she's not letting him get to her. When they meet again, she won't have flashbacks and nightmares about the last time. It's just going to be her new fist and his face getting to know each other for a short period of time. Anger has always been her forte really. It triggers her semblance and also helped her get over her PTSD. When she had the flashbacks and panic attacks, she got pissed at them instead of letting them control her. She still had nightmares but she learned to face them. It's what I love about her, she controls her rage and uses it to her advantage instead of being dominated by it.
Not sure if anyone made this theory yet, but I have one for this song. When she says "I'm racing to her side, there's nothing that I won't do for her", what if she's not talking about Blake, but about Ruby? Specifically, the young Ruby that she brought with her in the small pull-cart? The one that she failed to protect, but was instead saved by Qrow's timely interference. What if, then, "my mind repeats the scene, I can't forget it and it's torture" is not only talking about how loosing her arm traumatized her, but is also about how her inability to protect Blake brought back her pain from not being able to protect her sister? She's not just traumatized because she lost her arm and saw Blake get stabbed. She's traumatized because even with all the effort she's put into training herself, with all the effort she put into getting in Beacon, she couldn't do the one thing for her dearest teammate that she failed to do so many years ago - the one reason she decided to be a Huntress in the first place. And with her stump being a constant reminder of that, her self-esteem keeps dropping and dropping. And yet with Taiyang knocking sense back into her noggin, she was able to gain the resolve to move past that trauma (for the most part) and actually function as a human being again. Weiss never went through that. Ruby only recently went through that with Pyrrha and Penny, and she still hasn't really recovered; she's lost a lot of that spark she used to have before the FoB. Blake's the only one to have gone through similar problems (likely even more), but she's also notorious in the team for running away from her problems. Yang...this girl's taken this head-on and went through hell, and she was able to bounce back. This girl's tough as balls.
Remember all too well My time of living hell The night my enemy would conquer But now I've been set free Lived through the tragedy You'll wish you'd killed me; now I'm stronger! She's talking specifically about the tragedy of losing her arm. Her PTSD stems from that night, not from what happened years ago with Ruby.
Sadly you can't really get past trauma. It's always there but you learn to deal with it, and *that's* what Yang is in the process of doing. It never stops when it comes to trauma, there will always be reminders and memories, but you learn to cope with them so it's not as bad. Given by Yang's rand seizing up after a fight I'm not so sure she's learned to cope with it all perfectly just yet. Basically you never really "recover" from trauma, but you're always in the process of recovery? Also: I mean yeah Weiss didn't go through getting a limb severed, but she did have to deal with a controlling and verbally/physically abusive parent which left its own scars on her and I wouldn't be too surprised if we started seeing more things about her issues too.
Of course she's talking about Ruby. Yang isn't ready to look for Blake yet, she's still upset that she left without telling her anything. People are so perverted they take literally anything and turn it into a gay joke.
It's Blake. The entire first 2 verses are about Adam and losing an arm. The one she was rushing to the side when she lost her arm was Blake. Did you guys not watch the best part of the show AKA V3 last few chapters?
I honestly cant wait to see when/if Yang gets payback on Adam, but I wont lie I'd also burst out laughing if just like the first time they fought she charges at him with this song playing only to get her other arm cut off
Pierre Anglade Well, we got a girl who deals twice the damage she receives and someone who has a massively powerful slash that usually instantly settles things. Either she takes the hit (maybe indeed losing her arm) but dealing Adam twice the damage back, probably sending him to the moon or something, or she learnt from her dad and fakes the head-on approach of the first encounter, preparing to dodge past his slash and then punishing him at ahort range, kind of like Blake did at the end of Vol5 but a lot more... Yang-y.
From Tumblr: Anonymous do you think RWBY handles Yang's PTSD well? also, do you think Legend of Korra did it better or RWBY? I think RWBY handles Yang’s disability really well. Questions about any PTSD will be answered as the series goes along and if they ever touch on it again. As far as if Korra handled it better, I don’t think that’s really a fair question because both cases were very different. Korra was basically tortured, like chained up in a cave and tormented by crazy people. She had her body broken down and her mind fucked with and she dealt with a lot more trauma than Yang did. Honestly, I think Miles and Kerry would be the first people to tell you that they’re not as talented as writers as the guys who wrote Avatar/Korra. They’re both still in their mid-20s and learning as they go and when they took this show on I doubt they expected it to reach the heights it has. For me, with RWBY and what Yang’s gone through, I’m just glad it exists you know? I’m glad they went there and are taking these characters to these kinds of places. Like let’s be real, when the trailers came out and even the first two seasons, I don’t think anybody expected RWBY to go to the places it has. So I think it’s good that they’re taking these chances. Writing about disability and writing about abusive families/abusive relationships and making characters that could have easily been cliched/over the top heroes, and grounding them with these kinds of things that make them relatable. Is it executed perfectly all the time? Nope - but I appreciate the effort and the intent and I respect the work and care that I know goes into the writing of the show. My biggest thing with the writing in RWBY is that too many people are trying to dictate the story instead of just letting the story be told to them. Just my opinion though and how I approach the show every episode/volume :) My thoughts exactly.
TheEman590 I think Yang's ptsd was handled as well as it could in a closed off environment, since she's now going back out in the world it will obviously have a greater impact than it did while she just just chilling at home especially since the people of Mistral haven't forgotten about what she did to mercury so she could get persecuted because of that and someone could do something to trigger her ptsd
TheEman590 The show legend of Korra handled some dark matters very well and the fact that Korra ended up with whatever her name was is amazing but the characters were terribly written and so was the plot. It's your opinion if you liked it and I'm not going to be one of those people on the internet who will attack you simply because you like something I don't.
God, shippers are just obnoxious at this point. But suuure, this wasn't about her sister but the runaway cat girl. Whatever helps you sleep at night. Edit: upon my second listening, yeah, it does make sense that it's Blake. Chill lmfao
@@Jaerek maybe because literally the song happened? "My eyes are open wide, I'm racing to her side, there's nothing I won't do for her" Raced to Blake when she got worried (self explanatory) Threw her bike on Adam and almost died at least three times during the fight against someone that links her to her trauma (there's nothing I won't do for her) But sure, keep thinking it's about Ruby, whatever helps you sleep at night
@@Jaerek it could have been blake or ruby, blake when in context of the song and ruby in the show, everyone wins! edit: i meant the ruby part as the "racing to her side" as in volume 5, not volume 3, but overall i would imagine blake because of song context, also at least wolf seems like they are not the type to respond super negatively unlike some who are "cancerous shippers", as well as some shippers just pick up on small things others do not, be it relevant or irrelevant
Oh man, I went on a RWBY music binge today and realized something about this song was familiar. Went back to season 3's OST and... Realized this is a reprise of Divide. Respect, Mr. Williams. Respect.
I know that there’s a whole war going on about the verse “I’m racing to her side, there’s nothing I won’t do for her” The argument is if it’s Yang or Ruby. looking back to season 4, Yang was more focused or affected by Blake. Also remember that the verse after involves Adam and the scene of her arm. Ruby wasn’t there, so it kinda has to be Blake. Though, we don’t have to take it in a romantic way. I’d say the same thing for any of my friends too. BlackSun and other shippers can enjoy this song without worrying about there ship. I’m personally a Bumblebee shipper, but I understand that this verse isn’t really romantic at all, and it’s just a sign of s strong friendship.
the whole verse around that line is obviously about the showdown with Adam and losing her arm, it makes zero sense for it to be Ruby. Yang was rushing to Blake's side with TEARS in her eyes the moment when she lost her arm, the recovery from which is the entire basis of the song.... so yeah. Buzz buzz. 🐝
elleetecreations True True I guess, but I think it's more about how she's back in shape and she's off to help the people she cares for, so I think it could be both Ruby and Blake since they'll obviously run into one another again.
Yang goes to Raven so Raven can open a portal to Qrow so Yang can find Ruby.... The line's about Ruby because not everything in this show is about lesbians, jesus fucking christ
This is old but I'd like to point out that Casey Williams confirmed it's about Blake herself not Ruby s o... also to everyone who said Blake and Yang had no development make me really sad like, Monty shipped them himself and in interviews would tease them so hard that we all thought back in 2013 he was gonna make them canon from the gecco, as for Blake and Sun it's a good ship as well and had a lot of development but I really want to emphasize that throughout both volumes Blake was clearly very annoyed of Sun and depressed over the white fang situation and leaving her team behind, Sun is clearly head over heels for Blake but id say otherwise if the feelings are mutual. Another thing is that without a doubt Blake is going to be confirmed being bisexual, I'm saying this bc Arryn herself is and has said "I want Blake to go through the mix feelings I went through in high school" as for Yang being a lesbian it's such a hard stretch and it really did come out of nowhere but if that's what the crew wants to go for what can we do? I also want to point out the development between Yang and Blake can defitenly be seen as just two gal pals but I want everyone to think Yang is Sun, imagine those lines like "I love it when you're feisty" the wink after the emotional talk they had before the dance, the fact that she ran after looking for Blake going all out on Adam because she knew of what Blake has told her and because she saw her getting hurt that made her furious, if this were all Sun you'd all assume they'd have to be endgame too Yeah? And as for "well what if Sun was a girl huh you'd ship them wouldn't you?" I can't speak for everyone but personally that's a big no for me the feelings between Sun and Blake feel so one-sided (Sun liking Blake) why would I want to torture myself over a ship that would b angsty and I don't mean like good angsty like what bumbleby is going through, anyways I hate to b bringing back an old argument but seeing as the Bs shippers in the comments were being so rude (and a lil dumb) I had to step in.
Blake stared at Yangs ads volume 1. So she is probably bi. Arryn also spoke with Monty about voicing a LGBT character. Yang only winks at girls, two times being Blake. And she would stereotypically be gay such as myself. She is either gay or bi. Just wanted to say that.

Anger has always been her forte really. It triggers her semblance and also helped her get over her PTSD.

Not sure if anyone made this theory yet, but I have one for this song.
When she says "I'm racing to her side, there's nothing that I won't do for her", what if she's not talking about Blake, but about Ruby? Specifically, the young Ruby that she brought with her in the small pull-cart? The one that she failed to protect, but was instead saved by Qrow's timely interference. What if, then, "my mind repeats the scene, I can't forget it and it's torture" is not only talking about how loosing her arm traumatized her, but is also about how her inability to protect Blake brought back her pain from not being able to protect her sister?
She's not just traumatized because she lost her arm and saw Blake get stabbed. She's traumatized because even with all the effort she's put into training herself, with all the effort she put into getting in Beacon, she couldn't do the one thing for her dearest teammate that she failed to do so many years ago - the one reason she decided to be a Huntress in the first place. And with her stump being a constant reminder of that, her self-esteem keeps dropping and dropping. And yet with Taiyang knocking sense back into her noggin, she was able to gain the resolve to move past that trauma (for the most part) and actually function as a human being again.
Weiss never went through that. Ruby only recently went through that with Pyrrha and Penny, and she still hasn't really recovered; she's lost a lot of that spark she used to have before the FoB. Blake's the only one to have gone through similar problems (likely even more), but she's also notorious in the team for running away from her problems. Yang...this girl's taken this head-on and went through hell, and she was able to bounce back. This girl's tough as balls.
Remember all too well
My time of living hell
The night my enemy would conquer
But now I've been set free
Lived through the tragedy
You'll wish you'd killed me; now I'm stronger!
She's talking specifically about the tragedy of losing her arm. Her PTSD stems from that night, not from what happened years ago with Ruby.
Sadly you can't really get past trauma. It's always there but you learn to deal with it, and *that's* what Yang is in the process of doing. It never stops when it comes to trauma, there will always be reminders and memories, but you learn to cope with them so it's not as bad. Given by Yang's rand seizing up after a fight I'm not so sure she's learned to cope with it all perfectly just yet. Basically you never really "recover" from trauma, but you're always in the process of recovery?
Also: I mean yeah Weiss didn't go through getting a limb severed, but she did have to deal with a controlling and verbally/physically abusive parent which left its own scars on her and I wouldn't be too surprised if we started seeing more things about her issues too.
Of course she's talking about Ruby. Yang isn't ready to look for Blake yet, she's still upset that she left without telling her anything. People are so perverted they take literally anything and turn it into a gay joke.
It's Blake. The entire first 2 verses are about Adam and losing an arm. The one she was rushing to the side when she lost her arm was Blake. Did you guys not watch the best part of the show AKA V3 last few chapters?
its not called being perverted, but go off.
That last stanza before the final chorus...
Adam, if you are part of some religion, I would suggest prayer.
I'm guessing Adam learned that prayers don't help...
The only things Adam worships are revenge and himself.
whitecat is god
XD so random 🤣🤣 o
whitecar
I honestly cant wait to see when/if Yang gets payback on Adam, but I wont lie I'd also burst out laughing if just like the first time they fought she charges at him with this song playing only to get her other arm cut off
And then she Beat Adam half to death with her severed arm.
Pierre Anglade I feel really bad for laughing at this
SIR
Pierre Anglade Well, we got a girl who deals twice the damage she receives and someone who has a massively powerful slash that usually instantly settles things. Either she takes the hit (maybe indeed losing her arm) but dealing Adam twice the damage back, probably sending him to the moon or something, or she learnt from her dad and fakes the head-on approach of the first encounter, preparing to dodge past his slash and then punishing him at ahort range, kind of like Blake did at the end of Vol5 but a lot more... Yang-y.
"You've got no arms left!"
"Yes I have!"
"...Look!"
"Just a flesh wound!"
Wait, someone disliked this? Now I may be "evil" but that's truly unforgivable.
There's good people and bad people in the world, then there's Jacques and people who dislike the RWBY Soundtracks.
Even Frieza will think this is unforgivable.
Cinder we meet again
Ruby Rose the mere thought in why you would announce yourself in my presence irritates me to no end.
Now I'm seeing two people meet again.
“Armed” and ready?
Ok ok I’ll see myself out.
"armed and ready." get it, because she got a new arm haha
night light fuuuuuuuuk i wanted to watch this!!!
Wow yang really did get ARMED ( not really making fun of yang cuz yang's my fav )
One like = one punch for Adam
I liked...
Dazzling Chloelsa Me too
Yang's pretty cool, but Nora's truly the best. She combines hilarity and badassery perfectly.
Dazzling Chloelsa what about instead of a punch a kick to the nuts and then to the head
Adam deserves and a kick in the nuts
OUCH. 232 Punches 😂😂😂
I think I found my new favorite song for the year :)
Vadim Kibukevich same! Either this or like morning follows night is my favourite song for at least half the year!

do you think RWBY handles Yang's PTSD well? also, do you think Legend of Korra did it better or RWBY?
I think RWBY handles Yang’s disability really well. Questions about any PTSD will be answered as the series goes along and if they ever touch on it again.
As far as if Korra handled it better, I don’t think that’s really a fair question because both cases were very different. Korra was basically tortured, like chained up in a cave and tormented by crazy people. She had her body broken down and her mind fucked with and she dealt with a lot more trauma than Yang did.
Honestly, I think Miles and Kerry would be the first people to tell you that they’re not as talented as writers as the guys who wrote Avatar/Korra. They’re both still in their mid-20s and learning as they go and when they took this show on I doubt they expected it to reach the heights it has.
For me, with RWBY and what Yang’s gone through, I’m just glad it exists you know? I’m glad they went there and are taking these characters to these kinds of places.
Like let’s be real, when the trailers came out and even the first two seasons, I don’t think anybody expected RWBY to go to the places it has. So I think it’s good that they’re taking these chances. Writing about disability and writing about abusive families/abusive relationships and making characters that could have easily been cliched/over the top heroes, and grounding them with these kinds of things that make them relatable.
Is it executed perfectly all the time? Nope - but I appreciate the effort and the intent and I respect the work and care that I know goes into the writing of the show.
My biggest thing with the writing in RWBY is that too many people are trying to dictate the story instead of just letting the story be told to them.
Just my opinion though and how I approach the show every episode/volume :)
My thoughts exactly.
TheEman590 I think Yang's ptsd was handled as well as it could in a closed off environment, since she's now going back out in the world it will obviously have a greater impact than it did while she just just chilling at home especially since the people of Mistral haven't forgotten about what she did to mercury so she could get persecuted because of that and someone could do something to trigger her ptsd
Supreme KittenLord Fair point. Man now volume 5 can't get here sooner
Yeah but there's quite a difference between the two shows, Ruby actually has decent writers while Korra does not.
Jenny H That's your opinion, I have friends who loved legend of Korra.
TheEman590 The show legend of Korra handled some dark matters very well and the fact that Korra ended up with whatever her name was is amazing but the characters were terribly written and so was the plot.
It's your opinion if you liked it and I'm not going to be one of those people on the internet who will attack you simply because you like something I don't.
New arm, twice as powerful as her at her strongest as a norm.
There is about to be one very dead kitty-boy.
Yeah boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
I know I"m late and you probably know this by now, but Adam is a bull-man.
X Gamer he may be a bull boy now but he'll be a pussy pretty soon.
X Gamer He seems more like a cow-ard to me.
*badum tss*
He's a bull Faunus, as it turns out.
People really listening to this song without knowing who the artist are 🤦♂️
Now the question is, who will be getting it, Adam or Mercury?
Sebas G adam clearly
Why not both?
Usah Knights This man gets it.
Adam and when she finds out about Ilya her too
Both
The beginning is just beautiful
So, update from the future
It was about Blake
God, shippers are just obnoxious at this point. But suuure, this wasn't about her sister but the runaway cat girl. Whatever helps you sleep at night.
Edit: upon my second listening, yeah, it does make sense that it's Blake. Chill lmfao
@@Jaerek maybe because literally the song happened?
"My eyes are open wide, I'm racing to her side, there's nothing I won't do for her"
Raced to Blake when she got worried (self explanatory)
Threw her bike on Adam and almost died at least three times during the fight against someone that links her to her trauma (there's nothing I won't do for her)
But sure, keep thinking it's about Ruby, whatever helps you sleep at night
@@Jaerek dude...... casey literally confirmed it LMAO.....
@@Jaerek it could have been blake or ruby, blake when in context of the song and ruby in the show, everyone wins!
edit: i meant the ruby part as the "racing to her side" as in volume 5, not volume 3, but overall i would imagine blake because of song context, also at least wolf seems like they are not the type to respond super negatively unlike some who are "cancerous shippers", as well as some shippers just pick up on small things others do not, be it relevant or irrelevant
@@Jaerek also, this comment must be a enemy stand!
The growth from this to "Nevermore". *chefs kiss*
Thanks osu
Oh man, I went on a RWBY music binge today and realized something about this song was familiar. Went back to season 3's OST and... Realized this is a reprise of Divide.
Respect, Mr. Williams. Respect.
I loved the music from the 4th season! her voice sounded so good in them! Great video by the way!
I always return to this song during rough times to remind myself what comes when you don't give up.
She attac
She protect
But most importantly
She got her arm bac
Banger!
Omg I literally started watching RWBY when this song popped up on my Spotify. No regrets!
Yang vs Adam is finally happening, and it's been AMAZING so far.
This song: (exists)
The Robbers breaking into American homes:
**Chuckles** I'm in danger.
Honestly, Volume 4 made Yang one of my favorite characters.
Minticore Since the trailer i love her
This is the song I was wondering across TH-cam one fateful morning that caused me to watch and fall in love RWBY.
Hi Neo
I love rwby songs they give you so much courage
You can say that again bro!!! 💪😎👍
I guess Adams theme song will be lament full then... I'm looking forward to it 😏
With lots of cussing and crying like a little... Well there will be lots of whining...
We'll see when the V6 OST is out lmao
And in the end it was just "I've been abused by humans since childhood, I will lead the Faunus to salvation and also btw _c o r r u p t i o n_ "
"I'll bring the PUNishment"
Me: *tries not to laugh and looks extremely constipated*
Don't worry, we all do it.
Those chords on 'Soar' and 'back' are so awesome! Almost always gives me chills!
Song meaning:
Attention this is a reminder that Yang is a tomboy with a revenge arc
->Plays BBTAG
->Picks Yang
"Alright, time to Kick 5B and mash ass"
"A N D I ' M A L L O U T O F 5B"
I have no ideia what the fuck is RWBY but this song is so fucking good
And i liked that character's design quite a lot
You should watch it it is sooo good
@@thedevil-em6ge no is not lmao
Watch 1 to 3 for fun
Watch the rest to understand what's about to happen
My Favourite Yang Song.. Without question
I burn's gotta be my number 2 tho!
After I listened to the acoustic version, I can't unhear that accent.
It has been fulfilled...
I remember first hearing this... Yang is back... Such a fucking hype
I know that there’s a whole war going on about the verse “I’m racing to her side, there’s nothing I won’t do for her” The argument is if it’s Yang or Ruby. looking back to season 4, Yang was more focused or affected by Blake. Also remember that the verse after involves Adam and the scene of her arm. Ruby wasn’t there, so it kinda has to be Blake. Though, we don’t have to take it in a romantic way. I’d say the same thing for any of my friends too. BlackSun and other shippers can enjoy this song without worrying about there ship. I’m personally a Bumblebee shipper, but I understand that this verse isn’t really romantic at all, and it’s just a sign of s strong friendship.
Lol it definitely meant Blake with that latest episode XD
Nimbus Yup XD
Friends with benefits.
"Now you're saying: 'God Damn it'"
Goddamn it Barb
When the song supports bumblebee *raises hand* hells to the yeah.
Casually looks threw comments for a GODDAMMIT BARB comment...
Grace Pancake
GOD
DAMN
IT
BARB
You happy now?
"I'm racing to her side." "There's nothing I won't do for her."
That's either Ruby or...
Buzz buzz. 🐝
What have I done. have started a debate D:
the whole verse around that line is obviously about the showdown with Adam and losing her arm, it makes zero sense for it to be Ruby. Yang was rushing to Blake's side with TEARS in her eyes the moment when she lost her arm, the recovery from which is the entire basis of the song.... so yeah. Buzz buzz. 🐝
Alex Judkins But it could also be Ruby since she's trying to find her, though it could be Blake as well.
elleetecreations True True I guess, but I think it's more about how she's back in shape and she's off to help the people she cares for, so I think it could be both Ruby and Blake since they'll obviously run into one another again.
Well seeing as how she goes to find her mom instead of ruby Id say it was blake.
Yang goes to Raven so Raven can open a portal to Qrow so Yang can find Ruby.... The line's about Ruby because not everything in this show is about lesbians, jesus fucking christ
Destiny players when they finally unlock that crucible title:
3:24
Cant wait for Yang vs Adam round 2
Adam is so screwed
Nathan Page or Yang will lose another arm
Noooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nathan Page That’s fine she’ll just get another robot arm
No!!!!!!!!!
Nathan Page he already did my friend
*I feel personally attacked.*
I like this song
This song is about how Yang is ready to kick ass again. AND the title is a pun. Glorious.
This is old but I'd like to point out that Casey Williams confirmed it's about Blake herself not Ruby s o... also to everyone who said Blake and Yang had no development make me really sad like, Monty shipped them himself and in interviews would tease them so hard that we all thought back in 2013 he was gonna make them canon from the gecco, as for Blake and Sun it's a good ship as well and had a lot of development but I really want to emphasize that throughout both volumes Blake was clearly very annoyed of Sun and depressed over the white fang situation and leaving her team behind, Sun is clearly head over heels for Blake but id say otherwise if the feelings are mutual. Another thing is that without a doubt Blake is going to be confirmed being bisexual, I'm saying this bc Arryn herself is and has said "I want Blake to go through the mix feelings I went through in high school" as for Yang being a lesbian it's such a hard stretch and it really did come out of nowhere but if that's what the crew wants to go for what can we do? I also want to point out the development between Yang and Blake can defitenly be seen as just two gal pals but I want everyone to think Yang is Sun, imagine those lines like "I love it when you're feisty" the wink after the emotional talk they had before the dance, the fact that she ran after looking for Blake going all out on Adam because she knew of what Blake has told her and because she saw her getting hurt that made her furious, if this were all Sun you'd all assume they'd have to be endgame too Yeah? And as for "well what if Sun was a girl huh you'd ship them wouldn't you?" I can't speak for everyone but personally that's a big no for me the feelings between Sun and Blake feel so one-sided (Sun liking Blake) why would I want to torture myself over a ship that would b angsty and I don't mean like good angsty like what bumbleby is going through, anyways I hate to b bringing back an old argument but seeing as the Bs shippers in the comments were being so rude (and a lil dumb) I had to step in.
Blake stared at Yangs ads volume 1. So she is probably bi. Arryn also spoke with Monty about voicing a LGBT character.
Yang only winks at girls, two times being Blake. And she would stereotypically be gay such as myself. She is either gay or bi.
Just wanted to say that.
“ARMED and ready”
GOD DAMN IT BARB
the throw back to her trailer, yang is the best, im so glad she's gotten better
This is a really good song
4:18 "Now you're saying, 'God damn it!'"
God damn it...?
As in.... God damn it........
..Barb?
Listening to this in BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle made me like this song even more.
More Dragon Ball references here for our resident semi-super Sayian. Her 'I am the Golden One' feels like Goku's 'Ally to Truth, Nightmare to you!' speech too Freiza and it's equivalent in Kai
I can't feel anything otherwise cross-screen jumps listening to this...
Amazing song.
