SHE WILL DIE.

ALL WILL DIE

What if you found out your waifu was an evil kamen rider and she double crossed you to get a stronger form?

Interesting twitter post here discussing the number of key animators per episode for recent animes. Especially since we talked about the production struggles RT is facing with RWBY.

twitter.com/Yuyucow/status/813785248811155457

Fucking Yuri on Ice had over 45 fucking key animators needed per episode!?

silvereyedmaiden369.tumblr.com/post/154845711724

Reposting because I posted this in the last thread at a bad time. What are your thoughts on the possibility of Raven having future vision powers?

It's fine; I'm used to girls betraying me to get stronger forms
I really need to stop hanging out with main characters

...

>She has the same portals as Cinder in Volume 3.

Why do people keep bringing this up? They have the same portals because RT weren't gonna make two different sets of portals when they can just resize and reuse one.

Why are you comparing 2D animation to 3D? It's obviously going to be different.

looks sick as shit how is Kamen rider Ex Aid I didnt watch it yet since I thought the designs were weird is it any good?

It's pretty damn good so far.

...

I like Canipa Effect's videos on different animation studios, especially the one for Studio Polygon.

youtu.be/q0_qVgGYlyI

Makes sense, ice skating must be incredibly hard to animate, and when its the core of the entire show its rather hard to skimp on
And yeah, it really puts some perspective on RWBY.
It makes a lot of sense, one of the other possible inspirations for her character is Morrigan, the goddess from Irish folklore said to foresee great battles and to fly above them as a crow (which fits with her knowing when to intervene to save her family). Although I am a little annoyed Raven's symbol is the mirror of Qrow's (or at least that's what we assume, and I wouldn't trust Qrow or Yang as evidence on this for different reasons), I have a theory that Qrow's symbol was heavily inspired by Ozpin to the point he literally integrated Ozpin's gear motif into his name to create the gear and wing look. Having Raven's be the same is a little strange considering her clear disdain for Ozpin, and raises some worrying implications about their induction into Beacon

...

True, but a lot of modern 2d animation projects do make use of computer assisted drawing and animation tools to some degree. It mainly was a sort of a reference point since there's not nearly as many 3d animation shows out as 2d.

The clips of seen posted of it on social media are pretty darn smooth I'll give them that.

I want Cinder to give me the most disgusted look imaginable.

Not really as you're also ignoring a lot of the context of japanese animation. Most anime studios definitely are much smaller than RT with exceptions being the bigger ones and even then it's hardto say if those have as big offices as RT does. They also have to make it within a smaller timeframe RT has which also includes things like recording and PR.

>Jaune ever having a Boner about Pyrrha
Weiss is still alive and kicking although I guess you could say most respect for her intellect is pretty dead.

Oh. Yeah. I remember the Morrigan thing coming up before.

>Although I am a little annoyed Raven's symbol is the mirror of Qrow's (or at least that's what we assume, and I wouldn't trust Qrow or Yang as evidence on this for different reasons),

I think that's based upon Yang drawing it on the board during her exposition dump to Blake in Volume 2. Although I can understand the lack of trust in that.

>I have a theory that Qrow's symbol was heavily inspired by Ozpin to the point he literally integrated Ozpin's gear motif into his name to create the gear and wing look

Seems like a logical assumption. He's basically his second-in-command.

> Having Raven's be the same is a little strange considering her clear disdain for Ozpin, and raises some worrying implications about their induction into Beacon

Yeah... Are you saying they might have been brainwashed or something? Either way, here's a thought. Sacrifice might be Raven's theme. Which is all about the singer's decision that they aren't going to be the sacrifice for someone else's plot, which would fit Raven's neutrality in the Ozpin and Salem conflict. Perhaps her being sent to work for Salem, possibly under Ozpin's orders, was the intended? And she happened to survive it and decided she was done with both sides? So, the symbol was she represented her when she was working with them or something? And that's why Yang knows it? I don't know.

I want to spend NYE with Yang!

Instead you'll be alone.

...

>IrondaddyxWeiss
Yes.

Jaune is going to rush the Schnee mansion, fight his way to Weiss,punch Whitley and beat her father in a duel then he and Weiss are gonna run off to join back up with RNJR. Jaune is gonna hotwire Jacques' favorite car because he learned that from his sisters and they're gonna drive to the nearest church so Weiss and Jaune can get married.

This is what I actually want to happen in the story and it's not just my personal fantasy that I want to happen to me.

was the intended sacrifice*

I accidentally a word there.

I told you fuckers Weiss wouldn't be leaving Atlas this volume, but you didn't believe me.

...

what if weiss told you she really didn't like you

I actually hated that part of the episode, because it was so hard to hear her over the music. I maybe understood like, 2 words...?

Was it just me? Did anyone else feel that way?

We have five episodes left. Don't start gloating yet.

I dunnow, she may leave the mansion but leave Atlas? Weiss doesn't seem to be the type to know a thing or two on how to sneak out of borders.

I doubt Raven ever worked for Salem (she doesn't seem the type to let people go willingly) but I do think there's something skeevy going on with the Branwen's being accepted into Beacon when Qrow quite literally couldn't tell a skirt from a kilt
I'm getting this feeling of "Vale Man's Burden" from the whole thing, that some brave young Hunters found these poor lost feral children (actually Raven and Qrow on a scouting mission) who they sent back to Beacon to train and civilize. It wasn't until Yang was born that Raven put it together and realized they were being asked to leave their old families behind, and she responded badly. Qrow though, he took inspiration from Ozpin and started hero worshiping the man
Also it doesn't help that Raven might be a Faunus judging by her literally feathered hair, so add some literal "tame the wild animal" stuff in there

Surprisingly good. It's another Gaim situation where the goofy suit designs are usually completely non-indicative of the show's tone. Shit got dark real fast.

No one expected Whitley to show his true self after 5 minutes of screentime either. Or that Yang would get her new in her first scene of volume 4, followed by putting it on the next episode. No one thought Weiss' concert would happen so early, and be only a small event.

5 episodes is enough to send Weiss, Yang, and Blake toward Haven academy.

That and she'd most likely seek refuge with the Academy/Army. What she said is true, if any of this shit goes public Jacques lose all control of the situation. Weiss summoning the Knight, wrecking the mansion and surrendering to the Atlesian authorities would be one hell of a messy way of going public
Plus it would be a good way to establish the leadership of Atlas as sympathetic outside of Ironwood, even if it is just them seeing the value of a potential Schnee heir owing them a favour

sweet Ill watch that as soon I get home from work then

Why is there a draw thread in ever board now?

I know you're probably right but good god I hope you're wrong
They all deserve their own separate plots but Yang especially deserves one. They've had one waiting in the wings since before this shit started with the Yellow trailer, and Yang still hasn't moved down that path

Weiss crumbled pretty quickly in front of her father, all things considered. I was expecting after he dropped a bunch of "we" and "us" and "our" for her to fire back with something like "it was never about us, it was always about YOU" or something.

And she'll ditch you for someone hotter.

people want drawings

This is neat.

A fine ship indeed. Minute Made a best.

>Ren and Nora finally used their combo attack
Better late than never. Jaune was probably happy about that.

>Next time we see Yang she's alreay on the road, smiling and being exactly as she was back in volume 1 sans a metal arm
You know it's going to happen

>I doubt Raven ever worked for Salem (she doesn't seem the type to let people go willingly)

That's fair. Although there's the issue of trying to track down someone who can apparently be halfway across the world in an instant, assuming her portals allow her to go from Anima to Sanus. But yeah, I can definitely see where you're coming from there.

>but I do think there's something skeevy going on with the Branwen's being accepted into Beacon when Qrow quite literally couldn't tell a skirt from a kilt

Yeah... It's hard to tell what's comedy and what shows Qrow was in way over his head.

>I'm getting this feeling of "Vale Man's Burden" from the whole thing, that some brave young Hunters found these poor lost feral children (actually Raven and Qrow on a scouting mission) who they sent back to Beacon to train and civilize. It wasn't until Yang was born that Raven put it together and realized they were being asked to leave their old families behind, and she responded badly. Qrow though, he took inspiration from Ozpin and started hero worshiping the man

Sounds plausible. And sad. Neither of the Twins came out better for that.

>Also it doesn't help that Raven might be a Faunus judging by her literally feathered hair, so add some literal "tame the wild animal" stuff in there

Well, it would definitely be nice some more Faunus racism in the show proper. Although, I have to point out that Qrow talks about the Faunus in a way that is rather distant for someone whose twin sibling is one. I mean, they are kind of estranged, but that always seems weird to me when that idea is brought up. Although that's probably more on the writing than the people theorizing. So, sorry about that.

She's only pretending to be helpless. She's gonna secretly train her fighting and summoning then pull an Iroh.

No lie, I'd drop the show like a bad habit. You can't butcher a character arc that badly and expect someone to take you seriously.

I hate the fact I can already see it really
I bet we just skip right to the end of her re-training with her dad, wearing her new outfit, and he gives her the keys to an offroad modified Bumblebee and tells her Qrow spotted Ruby heading for Haven
Fucking hell, I actually enjoy this show but that would really hurt me deep

Yang was raised differently.

But they already did. She already put on the arm.

I'm not even going to get started on Weiss'

>she's only pretending to be helpless

She's actually pretty helpless right now. Considering her father and everyone in his pocket is going to be watching her like a hawk and she has literally zero resources or allies now that she's been cast aside, there's not a lot she can do on her own right now.

>I'm not even going to get started on Weiss'
Get started. Do it faggot.

>Qrow distant about Fauna
Nah. He clearly is pro-fauna from the WoR.

If anything, since Ozpin seems slightly stmphathetic to fauna, there's good reason Qrow would believe him.

Hey shh. She sleeping.

Eh, its fine, I'm still not sold on the idea that Raven is a Faunus. Well, more accurately, I'm not sold on the idea that Raven is GENETICALLY a Faunus. We have literal animal transformations here, who's to say that if you keep up the transformation for too long some of the characteristics don't bleed across? When they zoom in on Qrow's crow form, you can even see a longer feather that maps to his cloak, is it really so implausible that Raven has picked up some feathers from her time spent as a bird?
Perhaps that's the true origin of the Faunus, and why their genetics are so bizarre; they evolved from people with such a talent for animal transformation their animal traits blended with their human forms. Over the years the magic technique was lost but the animal parts remained

Well, yeah. He's pro-Faunus. But not in a way that comes off as a personal thing. At least, that's how it came off to me? I don't know. I probably worded that badly. Sorry about that. But yeah, Ozpin definitely seems sympathetic to Faunus, and those from outside the kingdoms, as shown by his conversation with Blake from early Volume 2.

>forgetting about based Ironwood coming to the rescue
Weiss has allies, and it'll be sweet to watch as she eventually takes the battlefield against her own blood since I can bet Jacques will ally himself with Salem out of greed.

I just wanted to let you guys know that I fantasize about Weiss being a trap because she's so flatchested. And when I become a better artist, I dream of making porn of trap Weiss.
but I'm not into futa

Klein and Ironwood will help her get to Haven. Not Winter. She probably died during the time skip.

So she put on the arm, that doesn't do shit for her PTSD and other issues. No one wants season 4 Korra all over again, having Yang just sit and be depressed wouldn't do her arc any favours either
What needs to happen is for Yang to strike out into the world on her own terms, with her own motivation. Not to help Ruby, not to save Blake, but to go and do something that Yang Xiao Long wants to do
That I have to be hopeful for even the most basic display of autonomy from a character is a sad sign of how little I trust the writing at this point

Just use the excuse they use everytime

"It was a legend/fairy tail from long ago which is why this shit happens."

Expect that to be their explanation for the next few random crap.

Well, Weiss -is- the most popular subject for crossplay in the cast.

>Two seats on the council
>Somehow a rebel

...

You can have sex with your waifu whenever you want. The only catch is your cock shrinks 20% every time you do. If you start with 6 inches, it would be 4.8 inches after one fuck, 3.84 after the second time, and a mere 3 inches after the third time. After 8 fucks, you'd be down to a single inch. Dunno if she'd even let you fuck her that much with a pecker that small though.

Why do people keep saying Winter is going to die?
I know her VA is expensive but do people not realize the best way to save money on her is to do what they're doing now, and just not have Winter show up? Shes got a job that takes her away from Atlas for months at a time, its not difficult to justify her absence from the story, but to kill her off means writing that death scene, animating that death scene and paying said expensive VA to voice that death scene. The best thing the can do with Winter right now is nothing at all

Who are the (((Chosen))) of RWBY?

Define sex.

>I can bet Jacques will ally himself with Salem out of greed.

Even RT couldn't achive such levels of shity writing.

Could they?

It's not only because of her VA. It's because of her connection with the bitch Sheena. Winter designed by her, and meant to be voiced by her. But then Monty died and RT kicked Sheena out. They had to change Winter, and then add Whitley instead.

Because Winter was going to be Sheena's character and RT wants to cut as many ties with her as possible.

>Eh, its fine, I'm still not sold on the idea that Raven is a Faunus. Well, more accurately, I'm not sold on the idea that Raven is GENETICALLY a Faunus.

Huh. Now that is a thought.

>We have literal animal transformations here, who's to say that if you keep up the transformation for too long some of the characteristics don't bleed across? When they zoom in on Qrow's crow form, you can even see a longer feather that maps to his cloak, is it really so implausible that Raven has picked up some feathers from her time spent as a bird?

Holy crud. That's a thing? Jesus, user. I never would have noticed that. That's impressive, kudos to you. That seems plausible. Especially since they can't be explained by science to well.

>Perhaps that's the true origin of the Faunus, and why their genetics are so bizarre; they evolved from people with such a talent for animal transformation their animal traits blended with their human forms. Over the years the magic technique was lost but the animal parts remained

I could see it. Heck. My theory for the Faunus origin was that they were once animals with aura, like Zwei or something, that somehow got "uplifted" through some combination of Dust, human aura, and magic. Hence the compatibility, and similarity, with humans against all logic. But definitely was thinking along the same line of magic being involved.

Why do people keep saying Sun will die?

Basically, everyone finds the point of aide characters should mainly be used to develop team RWBY instead of being theor own characters thus their deaths is neccessary for the main characters to become "better" instead of normal character development.

They've already cut those ties. The only time I've ever heard Sheena's name crop up in connection to RWBY has been this general. Literally nowhere else discusses her
And even if she helped design Winter, she's clearly such a different character now Sheena would be quite literally laughed out of the court room

fuck off retard

Penis touches girl until climax. Wank, gobby, PIV, doesn't matter. If she ruins your orgasm, it won't shrink, but you have to wait 24 hours before a full orgasm or you'll shrink.

>Open the window
>Use glyphs to high-tail it the fuck out
>Call Irondaddy

>Why do people keep saying Sun will die?
Because he doesn't have a new outfit and that he has to die for Blake's character development. It's pretty stupid

>>Why do people keep saying Winter is going to die?

Ignore them. It's the same idiots who keep saying that Miles hates Blake and writes her badly because Arryn left him.

>Why do people keep saying Sun will die?

He's the only character in RWBY's age group as of right now that didn't get a new outfit. They aren't even bothering to properly animate his weapon.

This is the Schnee estate we're talking about. Every square inch of the place is probably covered in security measures and guards.

>pretty helpless
>Has literally zero resources

Papa Schnee didn't take her weapon away from her.
Like an idiot.

I kinda hope Ghira gives him something to wear

So what are the chances of Ruby actually developing?

Also what exactly is the point of JNR at this point. They ars still usless and so far have no ties to the actual plot.

>Ghira
>Giving something to someone he doesn't like and doesn't want around.

You're lucky he didn't Jazzy Jeff him into the ocean.

I thought people were saying Sun was going to die because he didn't get new clothes?
Because its not like RT went to the trouble of making a new model for him in Maya or anything
>I never would have noticed that
Its a little hard to see, but if you look on his head, there's something flapping in the breeze that's too long too and smooth to be a feather. I might just be projecting (and I'm rather annoyed I've lost the link to the page that had the original theory with the prerequisite red circles) but it does look more like a cape than a feather

>And for god's sake put on a shirt!
>But I'm already wearing a shirt
>THEN BUTTON IT UP

>What is Ren's connection to what seems to be a super Grimm and dislike for bandits
>Implying Ruby can travel on her own when she can't read a fucking map and is stupid enough not to listen to Qrow dyring important fights

fine maybe the mamadonna give him something or someshit

For me, it depends on if she has a talk with Jaune about what she saw him do in the forest. Has talked to anyone about seeing Pyrrha die?

Also, her "nightmares" where she hears Pyrrha's voice.

He could get one later. Like Jaune.

>Ghira letting her give away anything he made or pay for to some dirty vagrant who stalked his daughter half way across the world.

He'll come around to Sun eventually, right before he dies and tells Sun to take care of her

>They aren't even bothering to properly animate his weapon.
Even Monty gave up on that, he was trying to rework it before he died. Frankly, as much as I love the gun chucks, they were far too complicated for their own good. Monty should have had the sense to kill his darlings and go back to the drawing board, even if he just came up with "its a staff made of two pump action shotguns welded together at the stock"

>His wife scoffs and unbuttons it.
>Blake is glaring at her mother the whole time.
>Sun has his hands up with a look of terror.
