it’s just. in the end it’s about family. it’s about Camila pulling Eda into a hug because she took care of her baby. it’s about Hunter thinking he has no one looking for him only to find Darius over his shoulder. it’s about King’s dad telling Luz to tell King he loafs him. (it’s about Caleb falling in love with Evelyn, Philip betraying him for it.) it’s about Gus and Amity and Willow finding their dads. Vee graduating alongside Luz. The Collector being a lonely kid who was abandoned. 

Luz having her quinceañera on the Boiling Isles with everyone she loves around her. This show is about family.

Steven Universe got blatantly and unapologetically cancelled by the network because the creators pushed for a lesbian wedding, and instead of going, "oh, fuck, that's incredibly homophobic, we should give Cartoon Network hell for that for the rest of forever, holy shit," everyone collectively decided to blame the crew for "rushing the ending" as if it wasn't completely out of their hands. Fuck's sake.

I'm still upset over the knuckles series

you have this kid who is the last of his kind in a world seperate from his world and culture

and instead of relating that to said character to their psuedo mom who is a black woman and can understand elements of that

you choose the doofus joke cop?????

There's a few parts of Hbomb's RWBY video that got under my skin even more than most. This was a major one: his arguments that RWBY is essentially "Avatar The Last Airbender fanfiction".

I decided to take that part of my stream and release it in full, as well as adding evidence of my own to point out how flimsy his arguments are.

I don’t know how someone as good at making video essays as he is puts out something like this, I really dont.

thanks Dana for the new TREMENDOUS information

edit: basically during Momocon Dana confirmed that Hunter was created as a toddler, which implies he's been witnessing the horrors since he was something like 3

I really hope they work better at developing the main character's personalities in season 2 of Hailey's on it(if its getting one) because from what I've read about the production, they put more effort into developing the SETTING of Hailey's on it rather than the main characters.

From what I've read, Scott and Hailey as characters are primarily just composites of different male and female leads from copious different TV shows, there's not much in terms of personal touch.

It feels like they were just trying to make a fun DIsney show, rather than truly try something original or personal, and it kinda shows.

Once again, a second season can fix almost all of these problems, but it would've been nice if there was more heart to begin with.

I feel originally people had a point in not comparing Hailey's on it to the Owl House and Amphibia....when we thought it was JUST an adventure of the week show.

Thing is though, there's both an over arching plot AND stakes. That's not saying comedy shows don't/can't have over arching plots, Big City Greens for example has the long running Chip Whistler arc.

What makes them different however, is that BCG actually resolves their over arching plots, while Hailey's on it rolls the ball REALLY far up the hill...and lets it HANG there with its god damn High school dance cliffhanger ending.

Short version, Hailey's on it Season 1 tried to mix the vibe of season 1 of Phineas and Ferb, and season THREE of Kim Possible and it just did not work AT ALL.

Don't mind me, just posting into the void here...

Every now and then, I see somebody say something to the effect of "Pyrrha Nikos got killed off because if she lived, then RWBY problems would have been fixed" or usually more to the tune of "she would have been overpowered" especially when it comes to Atlas. While I would agree that Pyrrha in Atlas would have been quite amusing and likely a case of a seriously OP character, I disagree with the notion that Pyrrha could have fixed the problems that her friends had to face after v3.

More to the point, I feel that there's a certain attitude regarding Pyrrha where people fixate on her strength and lose sight of what truly made her stand out as a character. Yes, Pyrrha Nikos was very strong, arguably the best huntress of her generation in terms of fighting prowess and resilience. And of course, she was incredibly kind and selfless. And that's the thing: her heart is what mattered in the end, far more than whatever feats of strength she might have achieved had she survived the Fall of Beacon - or if Beacon never fell.

Because RWBY is not about strength prevailing. It's literally been there from the start. How many times must it be said?

There will be no victory in strength. Salem's closing words in her monologue that opened the show. And that sentiment has been reiterated in two songs since, almost word for word. So why should we believe that Pyrrha would have prevailed simply because she would have been an overpowered badass fighter? Because that would not help her in the end. All the might of Atlas didn't matter when Salem attacked. Cinder's heavy reliance on fire-blasting her way through obstacles via Maiden Magic has proven costly to her again and again. Why is Pyrrha any different?

It's her heart that mattered. It's why her faith in Jaune's potential is what matters in the long run - not a case of a female character being assassinated for a male character's growth, but of a girl who was willing to trust in love and give someone a chance when the world already rejected him. Heart matters. Heart matters for Ruby and her team. It mattered with Pyrrha. She was already a huntress because she had the heart and soul of one, not just the combat skills. She knew what mattered and fought for it. And she would have continued to exhibit that heart had she lived.

Now, I believe her heart would have been tested greatly and her resilience strained when she learned the truth about, well, everything. Setbacks and loss would take their toll on her. But like Ruby, I believe she would pull through in the end because her heart was just that strong, even if she had severe doubts.

I don't know where I want to end this. Just wanted to get it out there that I adore Pyrrha and love making more content for her (and being super gay with Weiss). But I also believe it's important to emphasize that her heart was her greatest feature, not her strength. That is why she makes a great martyr for the story - and why her sacrifice will not be in vain.

I kinda wish Ruby kept Penny's sword, as a reminder of Penny but also as something to help her fight with people in close combat

We see Ruby often struggling in close combat with people bc she's not good at hand to hand and Crescent Rose is made for ranged attacks and mostly to fight Grimm

Qrow would've had a similar problem had Harbinger not been made to be able to turn into a sword

but I also think it would be pretty boring if Ruby just straight up copied every detail of Harbinger into Crescent Rose so an extra weapon for close combat, just in case, would be useful and I genuinely think Penny's sword could've been it

At the same time I am awfully conscious that this could set Ruby back on her grieving

but it would, once again, contrast Jaune, who used Pyrrha's circlet to upgrade his shield after she died and he was also struggling with her loss for a long time

But he did get better, and I do believe that if Ruby kept the sword, it could also become a way to help her grieve

also it would reference her using one of Penny's old swords to fight at the Fall of Beacon after Penny died
