      Thank you for this. This reminds me why Yang's my favourite character. I just wish we had more of this kind of thing in the show itself, though it might have been a bit more impactful if the opening scene where Pyrrha disappeared was completely still. I am kinda curious why you went without the prosthetic arm.

      This is like the most accurate way how Jaune & Yang would fight each other in that current vol. I love it how Juane gave everything he got in Pyrrha's memory despite the outcome being inevitable, like a True Hero! Next: Undyne the Undying vs Pyrrha Nikos!

    This is genuinely the best Jaune fight we’ve ever seen. Making him look clearly weaker and less experienced, but showing off his tactical prowess. He adjusts his fighting style throughout, trying different things, and finally finds one that works.

    I love how the moment Jaune pulls back his shield, Yang immediately punishes him for it. It's not something you see often acknowledged whenever a shield user does that in a fight. Yang really feels like a tough teacher who would body you for making those kind of mistakes so you don't make them when it really counts.

I wish we could see different characters actually bonding and speaking in universe, it’d be so interesting! I feel like Yang would be a pretty good sparring partner in place of Pyrrha, other than maybe Blake with her sword.

  • @dr.godfather8250
    @dr.godfather8250 3 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    i really love this, the way Jaune is shown to have at least improved. It isn't just some, oh look, bigger weapon and secretly practicing, so he gets better but never follow through. Instead just relegating a character into a gag character that doesn't have any funny things about it. Jaune could have been used to explore more of the world of Remnant.
    As well more so for Yang, the way she just toys with him, not taking it seriously, going back on her old habits of only ever using her real power as a safety net.
    But most of all, the way you made it just, flow. From the initial fight, to the obvious way Jaune started shelling up and turtling down, fear evident. Then him remembering pyrhha, and his wish to live up to her expectation and not disappoint her, so much so that he improves, improves to point of *self-harm*. I just, *this*, this is what people think about when people praise rwby for it's potential. I love it, i love everything about this, this is what everything vol 1-3 RWBY had that made people fall im love with the series. Thank you, i highly doubt RT will ever do something right other than pander and mess things up more, i just, holy shit im crying. It's beautiful, that's all.

    This is the kind of flow/impact that's been missing in majority of the fights for a couple volumes now, and you managed to keep it consistent throughout the entire thing which is the important part. Also it's really refreshing to see a fight go more than 30 seconds without getting interrupted by dialogue, and it has actually been so long since seeing a lengthy straight up fight.
    Obviously there's improvements to be had but overall you did a good job. Keep carrying his dream.

      It's also kinda unfair to treat the RT animation department poorly for not being as good as Monty. Monty was a legend.

    This is pretty great! I like how it's kept clear Jaune isn't at Yang's level yet, but his movement and attacks are a lot more polished. He still can't overcome her after reminding himself of Pyrrha, but he puts up a decent showing.
    And he, uh, actually has a fighting style and has improved. In the show it feels like they're trying everything to resist that. He should have improved massively under the Ace Ops but his whole fighting style has become holding up his shield or throwing that silly shield grenade. The moment he charged in to face Cinder a second time in v8 would've been a lot more impressive if they'd followed up the hype with him at least holding his own like he does here.

    this fight made me realize Jaune needs a fighting style that fits him. seeing Yang and Jaune fighting made me realize that Yang is very skilled in combat and strong, even if Jaune is durable, yang speed and strength just tops Jaune. It's hard to switch from defense to attack even for a skilled warrior that has a sword and shield switching from defense to attack is still hard if your fighting a enemy that is stronger and faster than you.

    I absolutely love this!
    Just the sheer length of it, and chuck full of complex Monty-esque choreography, while also maintaining their characters, Jaune in particular; injecting more flair and speed into his fighting style to show him closing the skill-gap between him and the others, improvising new tactics when the current aren't working, and just tanking ungodly amounts of damage and getting back up for more. I would have loved to see your take on how he'd use his greatsword as well.
    And in a personal note, seeing Yang fighting like back in the Yellow trailer is so hype! You did amazing in showcasing just how incredibly fast and mobile she is; she really feels *powerful* here, and there are so many great little details in her choreo. This is my Yang!
    Man, I really hope you'll animate more fight-scenes like this, and especially when you can showcase a characters' distinct styles in ways that we unfortunately don't see as much anymore. I'd love to see Weiss super-fencing again, Blake using the full extent of her amazing weapon, and Nora having actual choreography in a fight.

    This is how Jaune should be after the events of V3. Taking after Pyrrha's style of combat and turning one the dullest weapons into a deadly mixup. I completely forgot his sword sheathe even turned into a shield. That's how little of an impact Jaune has ever had in the series.
    The endurance he has also fits in with his Paladin theme. Every time he gets knocked down he has little troubles recovering. That could've been a part of his Semblance too, where he can perform self recovery and keep fighting.

This shows not only that, but his grit that he gets when he puts his mind to it. Here's hoping Volume 9 does him even half the justice you have, Bravo.

    After seeing him train to use that air slash in V4 and seeing Qrow's fights against Winter and Tyrrion where he used it I thought V5 might be perfect time for Qrow to train him and perfect his sword fighting as well as expand on that tension they had.
    So seeing that move here just brings a smile to me, looking forward to seeing more.

    Also, I appreciate the Hell out of the fact that Jaune did manage to do better throughout the fight, but still lost to Yang. Determination is great, but at the end of the day Yang was the more experienced and skilled fighter.

    I feel like Jaune if he had been trained before beacon could beat Yang and most of the others if he knew his semblance better.
    Because Yang is a brawler and has little defense against him and her semblance is good for blunt attacks not slashes so Jaune’s sword could whittle down her defense while using his shield to take the majority of hits not all.

    This brings back memories of classic RWBY. I miss this animation style, it wasn’t perfect but to me it was apart of RWBY’s charm. The new volumes are too ‘clean’ looking if that makes sense and the fights aren’t the same. This gives the feeling of watching volumes 1-3 again and I bet Monty would love it if he were alive to see it. Great work! ❤️

    • @AKMotions
      @AKMotions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thank you! I know exactly what you mean. I think a lot of rwby volume 1-3 was pure mocap in poser. So the newer volumes look weirder and worse because they animate all the body movements and walk cycles by hand.

    • @ninjagrime4287
      @ninjagrime4287 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@AKMotions Generally a lot of the episodes in the early volumes were mocap but the fights scenes during that era were a mix of mocap and hand key animation as well as some recycled animations as well. Monty loves reusing/repurposing animation to save time or to make certain scenes work.
      I've watched his animations to the point where I can tell if any of the moves have been reused or not.
      In the newer volumes, the fight scenes aren't as good because they look scripted (they storyboard the fights now). Monty and Shane's workflow goes against that; their idea is that you have to be able to go at it, knowing the characters abilities and how they would act in certain situations. It's part of the reason why their scenes are so amazing.
      For example, you know how in Volume 5, majority of the fights were storyboarded and didn't look as good, but the one that stood out to most was the gunchucks scene between Sun and Illia?
      Well the animator who worked on that scene, Kim Newman, said that when she was working on the scene there were no storyboards and she went as using the original gunchucks scene as a reference but the even though the movements looks completely different, it still feels and looks like Monty's style.

    • @AKMotions
      @AKMotions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Glad to see you are just as much of a Monty fanatic as me. I want more people like you in this world. And yeah, Monty and shane seem to put less effort into it which also made it better if that makes sense. He took ideas straight out of his head and put them into animation, and he chose the easiest way to do so too. And the ideas from his brain just happened to be super cool. I have been studying along with a few other 'montymators' trying to animate half as cool as him and we seem to always write his mindset out as a formula. But to him it was his natural brain. Now that I think about it a good analogy for me and other animators trying to replicate his style is this.
      The more Monty you are, the less 'formula' his mindset gets. And the more natural it is for you. It just gets to be "I am just trying to make cool fights", and that is the formula. You don't pick up a notebook full of every little detail and incorporate it because you just think "how do I make this cool" and in turn if it ends up coming out like a Monty animation. Then that doesn't prove you know the formula of Monty. It just proves you are as cool as Monty.

Also he would be useful and I would love to see a character that uses there head with tactics instead of straight up fighting with no tactics at all. And Jaune would be the perfect character for that sense he is not that strong compared to the outers in the show.

      He still just needs a good at least a couple minutes long solo fight to show that off like he was clearly beating Neo-Cat for a bit before it fucked with his head when they had their 1 V 1 moment but that was only like a 20 second bit in what was mostly a team fight.

    @OddNess9339 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This is what I imagined Jaune's fighting style should have been. The simplicity of his weapon necessitates blocks and counters. All he would need is speed. And since his weapon is so simple with only one real form shift initially he would have been able to get pretty fast. Even when they added in the upgrade and volume four he still could have become very fast. All it did was sacrifice his defense for pure raw attack power. And as we seen with Qrow's weapon a great sword can still be used in one hand and still be relatively fast. As it is now I don't think Jaune would ever be developed to fight like he did in this video in RWBY proper because of the upgrade his weapon God in volume 7. It only got a two significant upgrades from what I've been able to see the, ability to project a hard light shield that increases its range and the ability to manipulate gravity dust in The shield center. This seems more like they're aiming to make Jaune an immovable tank rather than a fast fighter. Shame that we will never see Jaune develop this way as a fighter in the show.

    • @AKMotions
      @AKMotions  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I based his fighting style off of some unused footage of Jaune fighting yatsuhashi that Monty animated. It was the whole reason I wanted to animate this. And I agree, he should have improved as a fighter similarly to pyrrha, seeing as their whole character progression together was that Pyrrha was training him to be a good warrior. It would work best story wise if Jaune became what he trained with Pyrrha to be. Because then Pyrrha's death would be less of a waste as it would prove she did help him after all.

    It's crazy to think that 9 seasons in Jaune the only character with comparable screentime to team RWBY themselves only has like 2 1 on 1 fight scenes 1 against a.. bear in the Monty Era and a brief one against a posessed ice cream Midget in Volume 9 (which was cool with the kicks and headbutts he incorporated into his fighting but god it should of been longer)
    Between them it was literally all just a handful of moments in team fights basically, and in some of those (like the Tournament in V3) he barely even got those.

    And while mixing yang's fighting style up with more kicks did make it more cinematic, I don't remember her doing that many in show.

    If you think about it, Yang is both the best and worst opponent for Jaune. She's melee and Jaune has no ranged options. None. Zero. Worst because Yang's semblance only boosts her in melee.
