/rwby/ - RWBY

>>37715

They don’t just make someone younger. They rewind their personal timeline.

Also Reverse-Flash is incredibly accurate while time traveling. He won’t hit anything.

>>37709

Anyone who can wield the infinity gauntlet. They have the reality stone, which can pretty much do anything, so they can strip her of hers abilities. They can also use the time stone to turn time back on her to when she had no powers, and then they could snap.

Endgame spoilers:

the people who can wield the gauntlet, and thus could beat Salem, are Thanos, the Hulk, and Iron Man (although Tony would technically tie seeing as he would die afterwards)

Would it be possible to contain her in the phantom zone?

I mean, the kryptonians were able to escape but I'm sure it was because they knew part of the technology behind the teleporter, something that Salem don't.

>>37657

Anon, it's RT. They will abuse Penny for Ruby to feel the sads.

>>37730

Was Ruby always so busty? She's got WAY more cleavage than I remember. to be fair, I never watched beyond season 2, didn't bother watching the first episode of s3 It's nice to look at

>Shorter skirts

>Going directly against Monty's design choices

I am not surprised. Rip.

>>37672

What they did didn't work since they wouldn't go all the way in having Ozpin as some sleazy manipulator. They try to throw a bone the fans saying he was secretly a villain combined with following the hints that Ozpin was not what he seemed as a friendly old magic man, but try to keep him as a force on RWBY's side (if only through Oscar).

>>37673

I still think the best course of action is not telling anyone that little detail and dismiss any questions regarding it

The only character that ever attempted to kill something immortal was the major in hellsing ultimate, but that universe is wackier than this one, and guess what? They can't kill alucard at all, they just send him to the shadow realm and he escapes like 30 years later

Remnant doesn't have anything remotely similar to what the major used and I doubt there will be an ending with salem killed. Maybe the gods? But it would kill the finale to see her human again, reconciling with Ozpin and leaving for the afterlife after all she has and has been implied to do

>>37676

>I still think the best course of action is not telling anyone that little detail and dismiss any questions regarding it

They found out about Salem's immortality from prying Ozpin over the relic. He could have dismissed concerns by saying that the relic can answer their questions, but has limited uses and so they should think carefully before asking. And also tell them ahead of time they need to hurry with it since it attracts Grimm.

>The only character that ever attempted to kill something immortal was the major in hellsing ultimate, but that universe is wackier than this one, and guess what? They can't kill alucard at all, they just send him to the shadow realm and he escapes like 30 years later

The problem with Salem being immortal being this deal-breaker is that for all her power she was from all evidence prevented from winning all this time. Even with the grimm. The huntsmen should already know that they're warring on an eternal enemy.

>Remnant doesn't have anything remotely similar to what the major used and I doubt there will be an ending with salem killed. Maybe the gods? But it would kill the finale to see her human again, reconciling with Ozpin and leaving for the afterlife after all she has and has been implied to do

Wouldn't be the first forced redemption. It happened with Ilia, it'll happen with Emerald.

Actually thinking about it, what did Ozpin have to lose by telling his subordinates outright that Salem is immortal and commands the Grimm then having the info filter through cultural memory with Salem becoming a Devil figure? They'd already know the Grimm are apparently beyond human ability to end, so it wouldn't be a stretch for their director to be immortal. If anything, it'd make his mission easier since it'd give the world he was tasked with protecting a target to focus on.

>>37683

Well, if you want to straightforward save the world, yeah. this is a good idea

Except it wouldn't work unless it was another deus ex machina

The situation in which remnant would be in, would look similar to that of the xenomorph earth outbreak

>Xenomorph propagates through the planet

>Overruns major citites

>Earth is evacuated

>Xenomorphs rule supreme

>The humans left behind go insane

>Some escape to isolated areas

>Some, in exchange for their lives, capture humans to feed them to the aliens

In remnant

>Ozpin makes public the existence of Salem

>Every huntsman academy gives up; not only they are fighting creatures too strong to kill the best soldiers they can train, those creatures are tamed by an immortal madman

>The military tries to put up a stand against Salem

>Each king panics and tries to strike a deal with Salem first

>In society, panic spreads

>Religions are questioned

>Crazies start pointing Salem as the actual goddess

>In-fighting in each kingdom

>The religion of salem appears

>Human sacrifice in exchange of the cultists lifes

>The military is now trying to hold control of the kingdom and the borders flooded with grimm

>They can't

>Military eaten from the inside

>Check-mate

>faunus racism

It could have been absent with the White Fang just an army of mercenaries employed by Salem.

>Ruby's character

She's a designated protagonist.

>>37611

>A thread died for this.

Doesn't matter. The threads that get bumped off the board right now are all so old they still ran on the old 8chan software (or whatever) and you can't access them any more anyway.

>>35129

I honestly don’t think it needs to be re-written. That honor goes to boku no hero academia

>>37282

I'm alright with Torchwick not being a more blatant big bad wolf since you know RT would've made it too obvious. He would've been the RWBY equivalent to those fat bald bastards in doujins.

>>37282

While it's a tenable comparison (more or less. I personally don't see it) but as you said, nothing really indicates Roman is compared to the wolf from the LRRH story at all.

His looks and personality are derived from the character of Lampwick and the main character of A Clockwork Orange.

I think perhaps Ruby's connection to RRH is more in the form of her personality (naive and kind of gullible) only, rather than as a connection to the story at large (same with other characters. Yang and Blake also don't have a real connection to their inspirations when looking at their place in the story).

It's true that the villains are subpar. They had a huge chance of making a sympathetic character out of Adam (ruthless but only because he's trying to help his people escape racism.) but they, for some reason, shifted that role to Illia.

Same with Torchwick. Right before he dies he says he's a gambling man, and that he decided to help the people most likely to come out on top (Salem and co). It would be interesting if, for example, he didn't die at all, and he would realise later that RWBY was actually more likely to win, so he and Neo switch sides.

While Salem's backstory is interesting, sort of, I really couldn't give a shit. Her personality is nothing compared to the minor villains like Torchwick, Neo, Adam, Merc and Em, etc.

>>37282

>>37553

>>37556

I always imagined a better version of Adam being "survival of the fittest" taken to extremes, fueled by how down-trodden he was. He doesn't just want the Faunus to succeed and thrive- he wants to be the Faunus who succeeded the most. His manipulation of the white fang and Blake always being a way to make his "tribe" bigger.

The only risk with that is you have multiple villains who egos are either "survive and thrive", ego-driven, or both. And yet another villain who manipulates others by playing to their fears/desires. Even as a recurring motif that's a bit much.

> It would be interesting if, for example, he didn't die at all, and he would realise later that RWBY was actually more likely to win, so he and Neo switch sides.

If the show was more fun, I would have hoped the season in Atlas was staged more like a heist (the vault has the First National Bank of Atlas built on top of it, and the army headquarters built on top of that). Desperate to work out how to break in, the crew turn to the criminal under and find Torchwick. Though I wouldn't say he'd switch sides. Now he's seen what Salem/Cinder can do he'd probably look for somewhere to hold up- after revenge on Ruby & co.

>>37556

>His looks and personality are derived from the character of Lampwick and the main character of A Clockwork Orange.

That just makes it worse since Alex is a gangster who rapes rapes rapes. We have a story where a villain is modeled off a protagonist infamous for his bloodshed/violation with that same villain also in the fairy tale role of the wolf (a major symbol of carnage and/or lack of inhibition) up against a young girl on the cusp of her adulthood covered in flower/blood imagery who's designed off a character from the iconic tale of the dangers that'd face young women (namely rape).

Roman is obviously supposed come-off as a depraved beast (see him stop his own escape just to get a chance at killing a teenaged girl) who has a veneer of charm but he's lacking in teeth thanks to RWBY's writing.

>It's true that the villains are subpar. They had a huge chance of making a sympathetic character out of Adam (ruthless but only because he's trying to help his people escape racism.) but they, for some reason, shifted that role to Illia.

The first showing of Adam had him try to kill off a train in the most edgy way possible. And the Fantasy Racism angle never worked since we failed to see such for the White Fang's actions (see them partnering with the faction that uses legendary monsters who destroy towns) to come off as warranted. See here >>36958 for more.

Ilia indeed is a sloppy character. She's more or less just a retread of Adam (complete with being a dyke) but with a more obviously forced dark past to make her sympathetic enough to join Blake's band of friends (even though her backstory has her look like a school shooter telling her manifesto).

This is perhaps the slowest board on any chan in existence.

It literally doesn't matter.

>>36432

This board is slow as molasses. There are still borked threads in the catalog that haven't been recovered with the public moderator account trick.

Honestly i don't mind it though. Gives it a homey feel

I'll point out that Bumblebee really isn't a Korrasami situation since Yang and Blake were from early on shown as at least legit friends who could confide in each-other. Korra and Asami were rivals in Lok Book One, were still hostile in Book Two, and got a forced friendship in Book Three (complete with a talk where they're insulting Mako and deflecting to Asami kissing him even though Korra was the one who cheated with her boyfriend to begin with), and got a paired ending so forced that Byke had to go on tumblr to insult random viewers for not seeing it coming.

>>37467

Sun - Is actually concerned and thinks the best for Blake, helps Blake with taking back the White Fang, helps Blake save her family from an assassination attempt, takes a fucking hit for Blake from her crazy Lesbian stalker.

Yang - Bitched that Blake ain't there for her while her arm was chopped off. Only gets close with Weiss to have Weiss say to Yang to forgive Blake. Was more angry that Blake left her than her own mother. Guilt trips Blake numerous times over what she did that isn't exactly her fault.

And people prefer Yang over Sun as the perfect pair for Blake because Yang has tiddies?

>>37527

Hey I didn't it works. I just said it has more to it than Korrasami. Which it does.

It's obvious that like how Korra was obviously written as straight in the start Yang was obviously intended to be straight also.

>>made a good arc for both Juane and Ruby

It could have made a good arc, if rwby weren't written by hacks.

>>36710

> The line that Qrow says about Mistral "scraping the bottom of the barrel these days" has been bugging the hell out of me. I get that he was insulting Dee & Dudley to get them to go away. But given the current circumstances Mistral is in, having lost about 30 Huntsmen, it just seems off.

A bad soldier is worse than no soldier at all. They get under better soldiers feet, don't listen to superiors or follow tactics, their deaths demoralize civilians thinking they were decent soldiers, and overall act so confident that they're a peg above a civ it actually puts them below a civ with a gun who knows to be scared.

Everything Dee and Dudley did in their introduction showed they were not competent. Now did Miles and Kerry consider all of that when writing it? Past evidence screams fuck no. Otherwise, totally on board with everything else you said.

>>36712

The energy and resources needed to fix RWBY exceed that of creating a new original universe. At it's core it's (as RT have joked themselves) teenagers vs. monsters. To have the monsters you need a world big on defense- like medieval castle cities (as an anon said in a past thread) to protect the richer population from bandits and wolves, while everyone outside had to rely on a local knight (either hired to stay there, or hired per day/job).

That way Grimm can attack based on any desire because they can't get over the walls. With the above you can keep them almost the same. No need to eat (as evidence when the few times they have stayed in captivity they have not starved), yet will attack and consume. Negative emotions is liked cooked meat to them- overriding all their cunning and instincts to make them attack the source. This can in turn create frenzies if the negative emotional state is big enough, where Grimm will use wave "tactics" to knock down walls and lose self preservation.

Throw in a bit more history lore about the nations and Humans v Faunus and it sounds like I've solved it right? Now imagine re-writing the whole series to get those elements in witPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Fat Man Falling Volume 5 review

>>36847

Thanks.

They all work great now.

And this is funnier than I remember. Not amazing, but I remember it being dire, and this is OK aside from some downright cringe-worthy shit. I hate RT is actually getting better.

I will admit than when they are pretty funny when they made fun of themselves or grow self-aware of how Shit the RWBYUniverse was. I did like that Nora episode when she was teleported to the RT storage room and see likeminded tiny RWBY figures praising the shitty Pyrrha doll.

>>36419

It has ugly mudslime subs for some reason, but this is the only place I managed to find Nip dub RWBY.

I've got the BLURay RWBY S1 japanese dub with english subs on my HD. I could upload it somewhere if someone tells me how and if there is any interest. I've had no luck finding any of the other seasons though.

That would require RT actually knowing and being willing to spend money on people with talent in-house. If there's something good chances are it was freelance.

They stopped commissioning Humouring the Fates despite the quality because they bitched about not having control. It's all about control and ego, not the art. They may be more literate in anime than the average college student but they'll gladly skimp on paying production talent what they're worth and hire a bunch of celebrities instead. It's why Western animation has gotten terrible; nobody has any reverence for the craft and everybody participating wants the government to pay for all their material wants instead of their own work.

>They do the Jojos thing in the jap version

Why do they love that shit?

>>36510

Because she has a cutely optimistic attitude and genuinely wants to help people. Also because she has a cute design to her.

>>9936

>>36511

All of this and her voice

>>36673

I'm still salty about this

I hate how they're forced on you.

If you can bear to ignore them the routes for the other girls are pretty good, at least.

>>36684

I've done the same thing and got similarly shut down. It's a shame because the game has promise otherwise.

Maybe if patrons make enough of a stink about it he'll change his tune. One can only hope.
