Ugh, can't believe I forgot. The Malachite twins (the two in Yang' s trailer) outfits were actually early concepts for Ruby and Weiss's.
I knew about the costumes being early concepts, but them being twins?
That's new to me.
@@TheZero1312 Well it would still fit the fairytale theme of the team. Instead of 'little red riding hood' and 'Snowwhite' you would have gotten 'Schneeweißchen und Rosenrot' (I don't know the english name for that fairytale)
@@TheZero1312 Same, I would totally read an alternate universe comic where that still happened though.
Don't worry. I'm German, so I know what you mean.
I think you replied to to the wrong comment.
It isn't a spoiler to know why Blake left Adam. He was going to kill the crew members on the train and she wanted no part of being a murderer or being with a murderer
Wait but wasn't Adam killing innocent people before the trailers? I'm just wording why it took her so long to leave him. I mean, I get that she's supposed to be a coward but still. I guess I'm looking to into this:(
@@cakeday4058 Later on, she mentions that he kept making excuses about accidents or self-defense. And over time it got more blatant, until no one could deny the truth.
James DAlessandro it wasn’t just that train incident. Ever since Adam first came into power and Blake worked with him, he always uses the method of including fear and violence to assert dominance over others. Before the train raid in Blake’s trailer, she has already been considering leaving Adam.
Also, it's got nothing to do with her being a "coward" and everything to do with him being manipulative and abusive.
He didn't jump from perfectly reasonable to murderer of innocents in one day. It was a gradual climb that took her some time to recognize and then do something about.
Since nobody mentioned it. All the trailers are Canon and occur I think they said within something like a month before the first episode. (With Weiss probably being slightly different because of the fight flashback.)
Yeah that's where she got her scar
Yang is looking for Blake in her trailer so we can only guess that trailer takes place during the whole Blake running away thing in season 1.
@@WingedSupernova Reasonable assumption but I fear it is wrong. RT said all the trailers occurred before season 1 and released official Manga about the events leading up to the trailers. Of course it's revealed later in the show who Yang's looking for but..."Spoilers, darling"
@@WingedSupernova Yang is looking for Raven actually
@@WingedSupernova no yang is searching for her mom.
I can understand how you could have missed the trailers but how do you watch 6 seasons of a show and not remember any characters names?
(Martin) Roc gets a lot of flac. haha.
He uses Qrow flask (pure gasoline)
If he’s caught up he saw the twins in volume two when Yang takes Neptune back so they can talk to Junior.
To be fair I’ve been watching this since it came out and it took me till the end of season 3 to get everyone’s names straight b/c they introduce then don’t say the names often
Why she cut him loose was mentioned in the trailer. After looking in that box before the big mech fight, he told her to "Go on to the next car while I set the charges." She replied, "What about the crew members." to which he said, "What about them.". She was concerned about innocent casualties and he didn't care, that's why she left him. Remember the quote at the start, "Your hopes have become my burden, I will find my own liberation.".
(Martin) Thank you that makes sense.
What you propably didn't know about Weiss, and it's also only hardly recognizable in the anime is, that the statue, she fighted was a test, if she is allowed to attend to Beacon academy.
The moment she got beaten in the face and she was wounded showed that she actually lost her aura for that moment what means that she isn't invulnerable any more to physical damage.
To keep fighting could've caused her death and she still did it to leave home. The scar you can see over her left eyes comes from this fight.
What's even worse is that the guy who let the possessed armor into the room described how powerful it is to try to discourage her from fighting it. This is shown by her replying "So you're basically telling me I don't stand a chance." in the manga.
(Martin) Wow, Weiss shows some true inner strength even in gritty moments. Powerful truths about her. I didn't notice but thanks, I just started understanding the Aura as we got further into the show.
Also her father set up the whole thing and she did it anyway.
A moment of silence for Monty Oum, one of the greatest animators to exist
Monty Oum was amazing at fight sequences and almost designed every fight almost completely on his own until his passing after the 3rd ssn. Also the two girls in Yang's trailer do show up in one episode but say/do very little.
hands up all RWBY fans here
"they all have their own qurks" its called a semblance
(Martin) I was thinking MHA when I heard that
Quirks
@@spi3250 RWBY predates My Hero Academia, with the first season of RWBY airing more than a year before My hero, and the trailers being even earlier.
@@bskec2177 The manga started in 2014, but Horikoshi released the very first MHA related thing all the way back in 2008 bokunoheroacademia.fandom.com/wiki/One-Shot
me talking about rwby: their quir- i mean semblance
HOW the heck did the middle guy watch the entirety of RWBY without knowing abou the trailers lmao
It's called being under a layer under the rock. It's called being under the ruins of Beacon Academy.
he said he watched it on vrv and streaming sites dont have any of the shorts
RWBY = Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang Clever how the colors they wear match the acronym as well.
Do you mean their names? The acronym is RWBY (= Ruby), they don't match that. Each of their names is a word synonymous with each of thir colors though. Weiss is German for White, Yang is Chinese for Sun, Blake is Old English for Black, and Ruby obviously refers to the Red gemstone.
@@Good_Hot_Chocolate all of the characters have a reference to a color in their name and or an allusion to the fairytale they are based off of
@@masonwilliams1345 I know
@@Good_Hot_Chocolate Geoff means the first initial of each name spells out RWBY as well as the color scheme.
R ~ uby R ~ ed
W ~ eiss W~ hite

@@ImFrelled Oh I'm dumb, thanks for that. Sorry Geoff
@Roc - you've watched all of RWBY, but you've never watched the trailers before? That's ... amazing. Just ... amazing.
These aren't really "trailers", in the sense of a movie trailer where you see things that will be happening in the movie. Although these trailers do show background for events in the show, they're much more like character shorts for each character, introducing fighting styles and weapons. The Red trailer was actually Monty Oum's pitch to the higher-ups at RoosterTeeth on green-lighting RWBY, to show them some ideas for the animation style and the background of the show.
Surprised that no one mentioned the music in the trailers. Each character has a different musical theme, and the music is a really important part of the show. The lyrics in the songs can give you backgrounds for the characters, especially if you listen to the full length versions from the soundtrack.
Technically, the reason for Blake's (the girl in the Black trailer) leaving Adam (the guy in the trailer) on the train IS in the trailer. If you want to see it, listen to the conversations between the two characters and watch the expressions during them. The answer's there, but a lot of reactors miss it in all the action.
(Roc) I rewatched because of this comment. Completely missed the meaning of the lyrics in the music so thanks for that. I caught the reason for Blake and Adams split during the video and that cleared up SO MUCH. I watched on VRV and they dont have the trailers. Honestly I'm kinda glad I got to see this later on though. Gave me some RWBY to tide me over until the new season comes out haha
@@nerdcouncil "Mirror, Mirror" made the White trailer my favorite, both for the beautiful melody and the haunting sense of insecurity and loneliness from the lyrics (although it's always a kick watching people react to Ruby going from floating gently in front of the moon to cutting monsters in half with her scythe in the Red trailer). It makes Volume 1 Weiss a lot easier to understand.
The longer versions of several of the songs on the OST can make a major difference in how you feel about the song (This Will Be The Day, Red Like Roses pt 2, etc). The songs in the Red and White trailers (Red Like Roses pt 1 and Mirror, Mirror) are the only ones where you actually hear the entire song during the trailers, both the Black and Yellow songs (From Shadows and I Burn) have longer versions on the soundtrack.
I would strongly recommend watching the show on the RoosterTeeth website. Both to give them the credit they deserve for producing the show, and because Volume 6 (and presumably all later volumes) is only available on the RT website. I don't know VRV, but I think I've heard some other reactors mention that either there or Crunchyroll you can't get captions for the episodes, which would also help avoid missing dialog when multiple people are watching at the same time and possibly talking over the show.
The red trailer was made by Monty to sell the show to Rooster Teeth to put it into production
Ya know what? I feel like, mainly Ruby and some others, they hold back when it comes to other human beings so that is why she might look more ruthless towards Grimm? I am not sure how to explain but I feel like hat is something that makes sense
Yeah, like in the first episode, if you slow the video and watch closely, Ruby doesn't let the blade of her scythe touch anyone. She hit the henchmen with the pole and the back of her scythe and kicked them so she could knock them out instead of hurting them.
The big difference is that humans have an Aura, that offers protection from a lot of damage (depending on the strength of your aura) and Grimm do not. That's why people can take a lot more hits and not die.
the 2 girls in the yellow trailer where Ruby's and Weiss' original design and yes both of them where going to be sisters their names are Militia and Melanie.
Red trailer song: red like roses part1
White trailer song: mirror mirror part 1
Black trailer song: from shadows part 1
Yellow trailer song: its a mix of all the trailer songs with the end part being i burn
Note all of these trailers were animated by the late and great Monty oum with the songs being made by montys close friend jeff williams and his daughter casey lee williams who does singing who was 14 at the time no joke
Also would you want me to give you lyric vids to use for when you maybe do the soundtrack reaction cause there needed
Also, the trailers will be hints for the future events, so keep it in my that the trailers and character shorts have some kind of connection to the show.
Good to know, thank you! (Martin)
@@nerdcouncil
Yup, mainly the Black and Yellow trailers.
I've seen all 6 volumes. All trailers. Everything so far. Plus I cosplay Blake, I might do Ruby sometime in the future, but even though I only discovered RWBY last year, it's amazing
(Martin) Cool name, love Sonic series, well you know the best ones haha
@@nerdcouncil 😊
4:34 HA OH NO My Friend. Weiss? Preppy?
Just a heads up, there's trailers/shorts for Volume 4, 5, and 6 as well :)
(Martin) Yo Roc, lol.
Hey if you didnt know Rooster Teeth doesn't copyright so you can have the video playing without making it see through and can watch through all of the episodes
(Martin) Actually I've had issues with copyright, and monetization blocks in RWBY reactions, without the filter the video gets recognized and blocked. I've also emailed them and they have not responded. You are the second person that has commented this, but I hope they respond! :)
@@nerdcouncil its probably TH-cam and not them. That's part of the reason they stopped putting their episodes on yt and started just putting them on their website.
@@nerdcouncil hey it might be the music since that's something they dont have control over and that's what usually what gets video copyrighted from roosterteeth
@@celeslukas4182 (martin) ya its the music, I'm debating disputing it to receive monetization.
@@celeslukas4182 Thats not true, they did it to promote their new streaming service Rooster Teeth First, along with alot of their other new animations.
monty was a god. there will never be another like him. rip man.
(Martin) So sad that he went out that way... I wish that could have been prevented.
17:43 "animators" back then for the trailers and V1 & 2 Monty did every single animation, choreo and all
Not true. Monty had a team. He did a lot, but it wasn't all him. I believe he did the red trailer himself, but he had to have had a team.
Shane was one of um. And Monty did all 4 trailers by himself. except for character design. His girlfriend before she was his wife helped with that. Monty designed all the weapons himself tho.
In case no one has said this:
Each character has a “quirk” called a semblance.
Ruby - Speed
Weiss - Glyphs & Summoning (spoiler)
Blake - Shadow clones (essentially)
Yang - She gets stronger with every hit she gets and can dish that energy back in a super move (she is basically a Super Saiyan)
Also each weapon has a name:
Ruby - crescent rose (sniper rifle scythe combo)
Weiss - Myrtenaster (a rapier + a revolver. For her dust cartridges)
Blake - Gambol Shroud (gun + katana)
Yang - Ember Celica (shotgun gauntlets)
Hope you guys enjoy your RWBY watch ^ - ^
Ruby's semblance is burst into rose petals, which is why she can do things later in the show that wouldn't make sense with just speed.
Actually Blake's is a gun, Katana, dual blades (kind of), and whip combo.
Nemasis Demarini actually it’s speed but at a point in the show a character says that a symblance can evolve as they get stronger. The rose petals are symbolic of wind and therefore speed.
Can we all get a moment to pay respect to Monty Oum. The person who created RWBY. May he rest in peace and may we never stop moving forward.
(Martin) Guy is a genius in anime choreography, and ya always move forward
cant believe you watched the whole show and didnt know about the trailerslol but tbh when i started watching RWBY i was a few episodes in then i saw them on youtube :) xxxx great reaction you guys are fun xx
(Martin) That means a lot to me, thank you. I'm glad people are entertained. I'm grateful to have Roc and Phil, they contribute in meaningful ways to the channel, and with each there own unique take as well.
All RWBY episodes up to Volume 5 are available on TH-cam for free, and since they are shared by Rooster Teeth like this they don't trigger copyrights, even for the intros. In fact, Rooster Teeth encourages reaction videos on most of their shows. Volume 6 of RWBY is only available on Rooster Teeth's website though, but it is still shared for free. There's also a sort of side show called RWBY Chibi that, if you're interested by it, I recommend only watching after Volume 3 as it contains major spoilers.
I think Volume 6 might start going up on TH-cam when Volume 7 starts this November-ish (the premiere date isn't set in stone, just so they don't have to overwork animators if they can't reach the deadline). And yeah, reactions don't get taken down by RT, though TH-cam targets them if there's no moving background around the video, so people without facecams have trouble.
Blake's power is that she leaves behind a clone of herself while she moves away from the spot, getting her out of the way of a blow that would otherwise hit her. The clone blurs out as it dissapears, indicating that it was a clone in the first place.
She even uses the clones to maneuver in mid-air. I think they're semi-solid, since I've noticed one take a punch to the face and go flying backward.
She can also use dust to add an element to the clones.
Monty Oum is the one responsible for the great fight choreography in the early volumes. Sadly he passed away during pre-production of V3. After V3 fighting choreography dives a bit, especially during V5 (but I think that was more of a budget issue). The choreography improved in V6 tho.
(Martin) wow and apparently from an allergic reaction, how sad.
@@nerdcouncil Monty did pass away from an allergic reaction, but what occurred wasn't really a "common" occurrence. From what I understand (heard through 3rd party sources), Monty went to get an Allergen immunotherapy (at least I believe). He was allergic to cats. So he attempted a medical procedure to reduce the effects of the reaction. Due to the medical procedure, he had a bad reaction, fell into a coma and was later pronounced brain dead.
Now there is "some" drama about the whole thing, huge falling out at RoosterTeeth when it occurred, so best to be careful how far down the rabbit hole you want to go about Monty.
But Monty was a genius. First major video of his released was "Haloid", then it was "Dead Fantasy 1-6", then he got a job with RoosterTeeth for RvB, and then RWBY.
@@novocode (Martin) I have a few cats myself, and I can't believe the medical team weren't taking all the necessary pre-cautions before preceding?! That is scary if that was done here... none of my business but i'm sure that is a possible lawsuit if pursued. Sorry to hear about Monty this way, not deserved at all, and ya good to know not to dig into it.
@@nerdcouncil I'm pretty certain that the medical procedure is not one that they give at a drop of the hat. I'm sure that the doctors knew the risks, and warned Monty of said risks. (There were no lawsuits against the hospital from what I know, ie maybe Monty waved liability?)
Volume 3 had a bit of internal drama going on within the Animation department and company itself. Lot of emotions going on after the passing of Monty, pointing fingers, anger, and blame.
You can probably find more details (different views of the situation) out there on the internet. But like I said... rabbit hole.
@@novocode Crazy rabbit hole indeed... Could be a good documentary for Netflix. Also I'm sure they wanted answers, can't imagine losing a friend.
I dunno if anyone pointed out, but there were black birds in the Red, Black, and Yellow Trailers.
It's easy to miss in the Red Trailer because it swoops across the camera for half a second. In the Black Trailer, it flies away when Blake and Adam get to the cliff, and in the Yellow Trailer, it hops off a lamp post and flies away as Yang approaches the club.
The White Trailer shows how Weiss got her scar, though there's an animation error where you can see her scar next to the blood on her face. However, throughout the first half of the fight, she doesn't have a scar, and we get a couple really good shots of that side of her face that show this clearly.
It's sad that the only material that explains the White Trailer is the first RWBY manga that came out a couple or so years ago in Japan, drawn by Shirow Miwa.
Basically, Weiss was training at home one day, and the guy overseeing her training said she should further improve her skills at Atlas Academy. Weiss reminded him that she wanted to go to Beacon, and he reminded her that her father wanted her to stay in Atlas and started trying to guilt trip her into staying. He then lets that giant suit of armor (which the writers said is possessed by a Grimm) into the training room and tells her that her father said she has to fight it if she continues her "selfishness" in wanting to go to Beacon. He explains how powerful it is, leading Weiss to respond "So you're basically saying I don't stand a chance." During the fight, she narrates about how she grew up with her sense of pride being tied to her family, and she intends to create her own sense of self that she can be proud of.
When you guys get to Volumes 4, 5, and 6, absolutely watch the character shorts! Volumes 4 and 6 each only have one character short, but Volume 5 has three.
I assumed the black birds in red and black trailers were qrow (watching over Ruby and watching the white fang) and the one in the yellow trailer was Raven secretly watching yang.
RIP Monty. He’s the creator of the show and the one that made these trailers. He passed after the 2nd season.
I watch alot of reaction RWBY channels, and i am always up to watch new ones, specially those who have never seen RWBY before and i get to see how you all fall in love of the show just as we did, so i am now your 380 subscriber :D see you on the next one
haha thanks for being our 380, appreciate the support. (Martin)
RIP Monty Oum, your creation is still blowing everyones mind and we miss you
Blake which is black leaves a shadow version of herself behind. Weiss which is White uses glyph's. Ruby which is Red use speed. Yang which is Yellow is strength I think.
Yang is something like a berserker power. As she takes hits, her own strength increases.
Welcome to the club!
(martin) In da club!
Just noticed the Crow flying on the beginning of Yellow trailer. Huh.
Oh dang, likewise. I think it looks a bit more like a raven, but you could be right.
I get what you mean about the twins. I kept wondering if they were gonna be in the show. I kept thinking ‘dang’ when they came back with a couple other people.
Fun fact, only one person animated the fighting in rwby for the first 2 years
Monty was a genius
I mean, Monty did do a lot of the work. But didn't Shane help as well? Not sure if there were any others though
Finally gonna go through the playlist. Monty made the first two trailers alone, proof of concept stuff. RT picked it up, hence the voicework and extra characters in the second pair. Incidentally, Ruby reloaded with gravity dust ammo, and Yang reloaded with fire dust ammo.
(martin) thanks for the insight
As a reminder: The white trailer is ALSO the story of how she got the scar that goes down her left eye.
The Forest in the Black Trailer is Red because its the Forever Fall forest, the leaves are forever a bright red color, and are falling and all year round with the colors to match just like the season of Autumn, or "Fall".
watched all the episodes
forgot all their names x_x
and he forgot that the twins were in the show. but just briefly. when Yang and Neptune visited the bar in season 2
When Neptune tried to hit on them and they turned away
Definitely a great series to watch. They explain all the things you guys are asking about, Jutsu gradually. They also have little "stories of Remnant" that explain things like dust, aura, etc
if you enjoyed these trailers, you should watch a really old series of videos called "Dead Fantasy" which was made by the guy who was in charge of the RWBY show until his passing, Monty Oum. He made Dead Fantasy before RWBY.
12:01 i know this was awhile ago but in case your still confused, its pretty much like shadow stepping, making a fake her to launch herself in any direction (i know you knew that 2ed part but thats what a shadow step is, not just for her)
How much they say. The men completely forgot how to silently watch to the end and only then draw conclusions.
The reason Yang isn't killing those guys is 'cause her weapons don't fire shotgun shells. They fire pulses of raw kinetic energy.
(martin) oh, makes sense, still that would probably kill but you know anime.
The songs and trailers have meaning and not just that it shows u what they are capable of
There is a deeper meaning into the lore of the world of RWBY
the twins in yellow do appear in the show. its in the first season, the episode is called painting the town
The twins in the Yellow trailer don't appear in the show, but you do meet their mother in Volume 6 in Mistral - LIttle Miss Malachite.
The twin girls in the Yellow trailer are in the show, they are the Malechite twins they just dont make many appearances.
These were made almost a year before the show as a teaser for their new show
Also just wanted to add all the characters are based of fairy tails and folklore.
Ruby - Red riding hood
Weiss - Snow White (her name means white snow in German)
Blake - Belle
Yang - Goldilocks
The secondary main characters are gender bent versions of some too
Jaune - Joan of Arc
Nora - Thor
Pyrhha - Achilles
Ren - Mulan
Then professor Ozpin and his posse are all from Wizard of Oz
Ozpin - is well obviously Oz
Prof. Goodwitch - self explanatory as well
Ironwood - the tin man
And there are a few others that wont be revealed till later so I wont say the rest but they're kinda obvious when shown.
And the people that have animal features are called Faunus.
Close. JNPR are all based on characters that cross-dressed in their respective historical lives/myths.
@@Chokah when did Thor?? I know ab the others and such but cant think of a time Thor did. Not saying its wrong and I'm sure 100% right I just wanna know when Thor did. 😅
Thor crossed dressed after his hammer was stolen.
The ice giants took it and buried it, refusing to tell anyone unless Freya (a Norse Goddess) married their chief. She refused, so Thor disguised himself as her and went instead. After the wedding, the chief gave "Freya" the hammer to send home, and which point Thor dropped his disguise and killed everyone.
There's a lot more to the story than that (for instance Loki was there helping Thor the entire time and they got along about as well as you'd think), so you should look it up.
Professor Bartholomew Oobleck is based on the Dr. Seuss book Bartholomew and the Oobleck.
Professor Peter Port is based on Peter and the Wolf (hence him telling the students about how he captured a Beowolf).
Cardin Winchester is based on Henry Beaufort, who was a Cardinal and the Bishop of Winchester (he picked the Black Bishop piece in the initiation). Henry played a role in the conviction and subsequent execution of Joan of Arc.
Adam is based on the Beast from Beauty and the Beast, hence his emblem being, according to Monty Oum himself, a wilting rose.
The RWBY wiki actually has subpages for a lot of the characters called Behind the Scenes, which explain their allusions to fairy tales, classic books, folklore, etc. It's neat.
For example, Ruby's Behind the Scenes page: rwby.fandom.com/wiki/Ruby_Rose/Behind_the_Scenes
It also has a section about concept art and how the final versions changed from the concepts, as well as interesting trivia about production relating to her.
The reason people can take all the brutal blows and not bleed everywhere is because of their semblance. They generate a certain ability and a personal shield.
You can tell that some of the moves from the red girl stemmed From Xiaoyu in Tekken 🤣
I mean yes, her eyes turn red when she's angry, but technically the reason they turn red is because she's activating her semblance. It just so happens that there is generally overlap.
RWBY doesn't just stand for the colors that the girls represent. It's the initials of their first names. R = Ruby Rose, W = Weiss Schnee, B = Blake Belladonna, Y = Yang Xiao Long. Put them together on a team and you got Team RWBY. Also they already have a video game made for them by Rooster Teeth. It's titled; RWBY: Grimm Eclipse, and it also features Team JNPR via DLC. Also you guys got a lot of catching up to do. There are 6 Volumes of RWBY out now, with a RWBY Volume 7 on the way. Also with each volume, the animation just gets better and better. Enjoy. ;)
(Martin) Been an amazing show so far
@@nerdcouncil And it's just only going to get better and better, and I also want to say that I'm sorry ahead of time for what you will feel in the future of watching RWBY. I just hope that your hearts will be ready for it when the time comes. That's all I have to say about it. May God be with you three, and Godspeed.
If you are interested Dead Fantasy is a good one too. The original creator of RWBY(Monty Oum) did Dead Fantasy as well. It's six 'Episodes' it was meant to be nine but he died before he could finish
Can’t wait to see you guys react to more episodes and omg y’all are in for a hell of a ride !
Also in the Black trailer, Blake doesnt phase, she uses shadow clones .
(Martin) Thanks 28 grams
No problem, I watched this show over and over alot of times haha.
If you need more Monty Oum and loved his fight choreography. I would recommend Haloid (Characters from Halo and Metroid) and the unfinished work of Dead Fantasy 1-6 (Characters from games: Dead or Alive, Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, and Ninja Gaiden). Just extras just to show the appreciation of Monty Oum's fight choreography.
Otherwise, most people recommend for all viewers who are new that episode 8 (which is about half of the show so far) before really involving into the series. So if you're leaning into that, maybe watch til episode 8 before committing into the series. Otherwise, have fun!
(Martin) We did a halo reaction to infinity, and Metroid is great, played the GC versions. Halo 1 and The entire Gears series hold a special place in my memory :)....
Thanks, we will be watching the entire series of RWBY up to the point of latest release (hopefully)
@@nerdcouncil: But have you seen Monty Oum's crossover work with those characters in action like Haloid and Dead Fantasy with his twist of his fighting choreography?
(Martin) No, I haven't
@@nerdcouncil: It's well recommended
Those two girls actually ARE in the show, but only in one scene and shown briefly.
They have a video game (multiple but one on steam) it’s fun
(Martin) I found out later, looks like they did an honest job on the game too.
She has A ''semblance" As it's called in the show let's her turn into a red blurr and fly kinda and she can also pick someone up also "yellow" Is called Yang black is Blake and white is Weiss like ice with w in front and red is ruby
Last comment I swear lol. Did you know there is a video game (and a few mobile apps) the game is on steam it’s call RWBY:Grimm Eclipse and it doesn’t spoil the show (it’s not cannon apparently)
In RWBY, everything is also a gun...
In God Eater (videogame from 2010) everything is also a gun
Except the Gun-gun Ironwood has and Jaune's Sword-sword and Shield-shield
Damn yang was looking for [nevar](backwards spoiler) I never noticed before 🤭🤭🤭
So the RWBY girls (and many of the other characters) are based on actual Fairy Tale / Folklore characters; Ruby is based on Little Red Riding Hood; Weiss Schnee = Snow White (her name literally means this in German), Blake Belladonna (Beauty & the Beast---YES both), Yang = Goldilocks.
Moreover, of all the girls, Weiss is the one most like a stereotypical "anime Magical girl", using her rapier like a wand to channel her glyphs with the different dust chambers in the mechanism of her sword.
That Choreo tho... If you guys would like to see/react to some of Monty's earlier work, check out the Dead Fantasy Series of shorts. I think there are 6 episodes. No real story. Just Monty showing off his animating prowess. Particularly with fight Choreography. You may even recognize some of style and moves in relation to RWBY.
well the show is still ongoing. what are we supposed to watch between volumes?
Blake's semblance is called "Shadow". She can create "shadow clones" or copies of herself. The clones take the hit while she moves out of the way.
Yeah, It'susually used as kind of a short-range teleport while leaving the clone behind.
She can also use dust to give the clones an element.
@@kuramaninetails5362 True, but that's not shown until later. It was probably Weiss's idea. She's could be considered the team's Dust expert.
True.
- While the White, Black, and Yellow trailers are canon to the show, the Red trailer was made as a proof of concept and is only semi-canon. _Elements_ from it are canon, but the battle itself isn't (except maybe as a daydream of Ruby's 😉) That is also why the Grimm look different in the Red trailer.
- the battle vs the knight in the White trailer was a test her father forced to face to be able to go to Beacon (he wanted her to either not become a Huntress or to go to Atlas where he'd have an easier time influencing her). And as others have said, the punch that made her bleed gave her the scar you can see over her eye (My personal interpretation is that she relaxed her Aura a bit after dodging the sword, a rookie mistake, but then, she _is_ a rookie at this point)
- Yeah, Blake being a Faunus is a spoiler, but one that's revealed by the end of Volume 1. Not like Roc revealed something from volume 4 or 7 or whatever.
- the Train in the Black trailer belongs to the Schnee Dust Company (SDC), Weiss's family company (you can see the Schnee family symbol on a lot of the crates). The SDC and the faunus have a ... complicated relationship. And, as others have said, Adam's bloodthirstiness in regards to the train's crew was the last straw for Blake, leading to her departure.
- Yeah, that was Roman Torchwick hiring the goons we see in episode 1.
- throughout the club scene, we hear club-mixes of the songs from the other 3 trailers. and a club-mix version of Yang's theme begins as Junior comes out with the rocket launcher.
- The twins (and Junior) do show up in a Volume 2 episode. Also, the twins started off as early concept art for Ruby and Weiss.
- There actually are a few RWBY video games. RWBY Grimm Eclipse was released in 2016 on PC/Mac and the next year on PS4/XBOX1, another game, RWBY Arrowfell, is supposed to be in development, and there's been a couple RWBY mobile games as well
RWBY is based off of fairytales. Ruby is red riding hood. Weiss is Snow White. Blake is Beauty and the Beast. Yang is Goldilocks.
Weiss es glyphs are outstanding!!!
Nice reaction. Without spoiling anything, in the black trailer just before the boss fight with that spider robot thing Adam told Blake that he will set the charges. Blake responds what about the crew? That's the final straw that makes her leave. The rest of it I'll leave for you to find out in time.
(Martin) Awww makes sense thanks!
YES you're doing RWBY!!! New sub just for this
(Martin) Thanks Grace! What a graceful thing to say. ;)
Hihi, easiest names ever Red Ruby, White Weiss, Black Blake and Yellow Yang !
I still need to watch the stuff not on TH-cam, gonna check if the player on the website works now.
RWBY is also, Ruby, Weisz, Blake, and Yan
Red is consistent in all the trailors because ruby is the [redael eht dna lufrewop tsom]
(Spoiler if read backwards)
The choreography was great, went WAY downhill after Monty passed, in Vol. 4 and 5. And not an understandable amount (Monty was something special when it came to choreography), but in a laughable, omg this is truly awful, amount. Thankfully, in Vol. 6, they seemed to get people who know how to choreograph a decent fight and used segments from fights Monty choreographed.
GarikLoran I think a lot of there problems was working with a new system besides Monty passed away right after the second season he didn’t really work on season 3 and the fighting was great
@@appleholo2336 you can thank shane for that montys apprentice
Watching the trailers when volume 6 is over.
Yang is the definition of *catch these hands, bitch*
Did you really start a channel reacting to RWBY, Yu Yu Hakusho, DBZA, Samurai Champloo and HeroAca at the same time?
Fucking subscribed! Hope you guys upload consistently and make a schedule and stuff.
I hate that "It's a long story", is actually a pun. Damnit Barb.
Nobody touches Yangs hair
The guy in the middle needs to learn to refrain himself from spoiling shit
Let them find out that yangs a power house, let them find out about Blake’s secret, like calm down they’ll get it eventually
yeah more RWeissBY XD
Well it was clean when Monty Oum was still alive, lately season 6 or so they have been slipping, but season 7 is getting up there again. But there is a lot off shit going on, behind the scenes, at Rooster teeth animation studio.
There is an associated videogame for RWBY called RWBY: Grimm Eclipse for PS4.....re: "kids show", yeah, for Vol.1-2, you can safely show those to children. Vol.3 is when it gets dark and goes darker...kids can watch RWBY Chibi but the main show not so much.
(Martin) oh man, looking forward to it.
I swear the guy in the red keeps talking out of nowhere when the others are quiet
got more people on the hype train ayyy
"Best choreography out of all the shows I've seen." I'd agree... but then there's Red vs Blue. No matter how much I love RWBY's fights, RvB had even BETTER fights! It's just that with RWBY you get to see more original types of fights and fighting styles, which RvB couldn't, given how the weapons and combatants were limited to guns, fists, and humans. Blake's semblance was based on CT, and Ruby's was on Carolina, and the Meta was OG Yang but meaner and more menacing... and less talkative. If you haven't watched RvB PLEASE DO!
New sub, loved the reactions 💝
(Martin) Thank you, glad you liked it.
Watch: DEAD FANTASY same animator
Haloid
(martin) we'll have to keep that on our radar, pretty busy with two shows already
yay RWBY RWBY RWBY RWBY xxx
Its a great show, but if u want even more action i suggest u look the Fighting game they also star in(with the original VA's)Blazblue Cross tag Battle.
18:49 was in anime
By the way the twins in the yellow trailer are the daughters of Lil' Miss from season 6 if you've gotten that far
arent the twins theold originals of ruby&weiss? havent seen season 6 btw so ... :) so you're prob right to
@@passieverhoef3166 Yeah, they're based off old concepts of Ruby and Weiss, though we have actually been told by official sources that they're the daughters of Lil' Miss Malachite (their last names are also Malachite).
@@RandomGirl119 Official sources? Who said it? (I'm not saying it's not true or anything, just curious)
@@chuugummy975 The source on Lil' Miss being their mother is the Volume 6 directors commentary. The source on Miltiades and Melanie Malachite's designs being based on old Ruby and Weiss designs is Monty's Twitter: twitter.com/montyoum/status/349795637824466944
He is providing so many spoilers x.x
(martin) it was one of our firsts
Check out B the beginning trailer
(Martin) in any particular order should we watch B? or anytime now is fine?
She's like the definition of hands
😒🥺😢
