Yang for #2?

002 | Give me a character & I will tell you

How I feel about this character: ULTIMATE GOOD GIRL; overjoyed that she is finally getting to thrive both with her (future or whatever) girlfriend AND just when she’s being herself; she came so far from V4 and I couldn’t be PROUDER, ILHSM; she ought to get more soft moments in general and with Blake because it’s what she DESERVES; can’t believe we got “there’s nothing that I won’t do for her” on VINYL; Iconic Grimm Punching QUEEN; also deserves another bike, because her sacrifice should never be forgotten (RIP Bumblebee, you were the best) This would be more coherent, but the hiatus severed most of my neural connections between RWBY and words lol. Just know Yang and her growth are BEAUTIFUL AND PERFECT and I NEED HER BACK.

All the people I ship romantically with this character: Ummm...bigger better stronger BEES

My non-romantic OTP for this character: I LOVE Fre/ezer/burn as a BroTP ngl :b That peak sibling energy between two people who burn very hot and fast and then cool off into sobbing “I love you, asshole”s and then one steals the remote control, changes the channel, and hides it when the other one leaves the room for more than a single second. And then they wingwoman each other lol

My unpopular opinion about this character: So...I don’t like that her semblance is called “Burn”. I’ve never said anything about this before, but like...it’s so...bland...for what she actually does! My girl takes hits with her body and then dishes it back out tenfold, and they call it “Burn”???? CRWBY y’all can do better. Something that incorporates either the emotional and mental strength that taking those hits requires or the resilience aspect of her personality and fighting style. (I get that it ties into her trailer song, but damn, y’all...I didn’t have literary analysis and symbolism crammed into my skull all throughout high school and undergrad to settle for “Burn”!!!!)

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: (BEES KISS!) Outside of obvious shippy stuff, probably her own heart-to-heart with Qrow about everything: Raven and all the bullshit that that topic entails, Summer as a valid and legitimate mother to Yang, Tai as who he was without the injected humor to lighten any dark topics and also who he is now as an extension of his grief (because as of now the show hasn’t given his behavior towards Yang that context, and BY GOD I WILL INJECT PSYCHOLOGY INTO THIS SHOW). And most importantly, a talk with him about how hard it is to pick up the pieces after devastating events and validation and encouragement of how far she’s come post-Fall. My girl deserves to hear how good she is from a trusted and beloved adult in her life!

my OTP: LOL HELLO????? 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝

my cross over ship: I’m actually not too much into crossovers all that much, and even then it’s like...why mess with an already established, nigh perfect pairing? I guess the best I can do is maybe a crossover with C/ritic/al R/ole where she marvels at Yasha and Blake at Beau. But even then...nah, they’re too perfect for each other lol.

a headcanon fact: The arm doesn’t vibrate gdi I actually really like the idea of her getting the Maiden powers. I know it’s not guaranteed, because this is RWBY, but they’ve set out so many breadcrumbs that I feel fairly confident calling it foreshadowing to her becoming Spring. I think she deserves it, even if she doesn’t technically need the power boost, because she’d make a great Maiden. IDK man, it just fits (and the angst potential with Raven? *chef’s kiss*) (also I love the dynamic of Faunus Rights Leader dating the RWBY version of an Avatar lol)

Rewatching RWBY: Volume 3, Episodes 1-3. [Live Blog]

I...I’m still not ready.

[Episode 1]

The scenery got even more gorgeous than last time.

To protect you from Salem because as soon as she hears about you having silver eyes, she’s going to get someone to track you down, and so you’ll be much safer at the school from her. That’s why. And Volume 4 proves my point.

Alright Vytal Festival time!

Oobleck really prefers the term “Doctor” lmao.

I like the hints of each kingdom’s environment and settings here.

Dillon’s animation work is amazing! It would be great to see him come back in future volumes!

Ouch.

Feels bad man, face.

“My BFF!” “No.” “Yes.” asfgkh White Rose is too cute

It’s My Turn!!

That was hella gay Reese.

Omg Blake is coming more and more out of her shell I love it…. It’s a shame what happens at the end of Volume 3 though…

Man… Ruby and Emerald would have been great friends.

Yeah… They let out one heck of a beat down on that team….

Hey man, Merc is just wanting to know if the leather is good or not.

Team Freezerburn!

And here’s Yuri as Mercury for probably the rest of the series! (JJ. deserves better though…)

Ashfgj BLAKE.

I love how expressive she and everyone else are in this volume.

“BUT SHE COULD” BLAKE PLEASE.

Also PYRRHAAAAA ;v;

And here we have Neath as Ren too. (RIP MONTY.)

People were freaking out over the random Ren and Nora lore we got here. And then we see how they don’t have parents….

“Don't fret. If anything, we should be looking forward to a fight with actual guidelines, and not, well, ...murderers” …. Foreshadowing.

“Let's see. Grimm invasions, violent extremists, a destructive sociopath... “ TECHNICALLY EVEN MORE FORESHADOWING.

Yang’s grin at Blake is pretty gay ngl.

Oh man I am going to be so mad at all three of them…

I do love how they went with the tournament it looks so cool and fun to watch.

NO MORE GAMES. MURDER AND DEAD AROUND THE SONG.

“The pillars collapse in shame” was Adam ashamed about how he was roped into Cinder’s plan?

Will we ever get more knowledge on Team STRQ?!

PYRRHA LETTING GO FIRST WAS FORESHADOWING ;-;

Basically how they are in Volume 4 with the way the opening ended.

[Episode 2]

What kind of weapon that a taser would be good for against the Grimm??

And that’s when he knew, he fucked up.

I love that woman so much.

Holy shit the quick plans Jaune comes up with. He’s been an excellent leader for JNPR.

Omg Jaune wants to do what Ruby did in Volume 2. That’s so cute.

I love when a show acknowledges a ship name lmao.

LMFAO. I LOVE JAUNE AND THE REST OF JNPR.

Nora smash.

Hello Qrow…

Lmfao those posters. One is just Sun’s abs asfjgk.

And just like that the S.S. Iceberg has sunk. 2014-2015.

Oh right, some of the fans wanted Ray and Gavin to voice Sage and Scarlet because of the whole “Team Lads” allusion since Micheal and Kerry voices Sun and Neptune. But, I don’t think Ray wanted to, and Gav was okay with voicing Scarlet.

The fact that Blake knows that means she’s spent off-screen time hanging out with Sun so often she ends up learning about Neptune’s phobia.

I know this was more a comedic fight, but Sage deserves better gdi.

Ooooh that’s gotta sting.

Poor Scarlet

“Nuts” HAHAHA.

One of the rare times you see Sun get pissed.

OMG Neptune, Sun.

Pfft Port.

“Winter is coming”

And here we have Qrow’s semblance being teased.

That wink from Sun.

THAT BLUSH FROM BLAKE.

THE SONG “NOT FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU” PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND AS THAT HAPPENS. CRWBY WHAT DOES THIS MEAN??

That “She’s here” is so pure and soft from Weiss???

[Episode 3]

Asdfjg Weiss is so happy and I’m living for it.

Winter is an interesting foil in terms of acting as a sister towards Weiss compare Yang’s way of treating Ruby.

WINTER BETTER APPEAR IN VOLUME 7 OR SO HELP ME RT!

Qrow is pretty damn drunk.

Also I wonder if that’s Raven.

Yeah you tell them Qrow.

Lmao Ruby.

“Oh no, why is he here.” - Mercury.

Did Winter kill a bunch of birds to summon those?!

Oh my gods if Ironwood wasn’t there to stop Winter, she would have killed or badly wounded Qrow right there.

PENNY!

I love Ozpin asdfhk “And Popcorn” yep that’s Ozpin in control.

Yeah that looks like a draw.

Man remember when people thought it was “funny” that Qrow’s alcoholic nature was played off for laughs here, then that’s when Volume 6 came around and said “It’s not funny anymore”

Ozpin looks like he’s about to switch control to Ozma in the background.

Ozma and Qrow have a point there.

Qrow does Cinder. He saw you and the others.

Alright time to watch one of the most fun fights in the show.

Ah, man the character moments, and fights they’re all so good just as I remember them! It’s going to hurt a lot when the later episodes happen...

RWBY V5, CH7 Review: Rest and Resolution

(Repost Form My Now Defunct Review Blog)

We made it to the halfway mark ladies and gents! So it’s been a crazy few chapters, huh? Team RWBY’S partial reunion, Raven, the upcoming attack on Haven, Blake’s troubles with Ilia and Menagerie, it’s been insane so far. I think that it’s time that we had a breather. A calm before the storm, so to speak. Fortunately, this chapter delivers that and more. So let’s get into it.

Overview

We begin in the house where RWY and JNR are having dinner. Not gonna lie, the food looks AMAZING and it makes me hungry. They are all currently catching up for lost time, discussing their individual journeys since the end of Volume 3. There’s some good bits such as Yang pointing out how RNJR kept losing the map, Weiss summoning the Boarbatusk to freak out Nora, and Yang and Nora’s arm wrestling match. Just… just the arm wrestling match. I wasn’t sure what I was expecting, but it was glorious. It’s just a ton of light-hearted fun that calls back to the Beacon Days. Nora being Nora, Ruby being cheery and annoying Weiss due to it, Yang laughing and just having fun. It’s small things, but after two years, seeing the groups together again and just… being kids is a relief. They deserve to be happy, and it made me happy.

What I also love is the next part. Jaune feels sick and walks off, with Yang calling back to hos old ‘vomit boy’ nickname WAAAY back in Volume 1. Which also leads to an Ice Queen callback for Weiss. But Ren calls attention to those, pointing out how they’ve all changed. The RWY girls, looking back, fully admit their mistakes. Ruby’s reckless behavior in the entry exam to prove her worth, Weiss’ entire snooty behavior, and Yang’s tendency for being overly violent such as in the Yellow trailer. Jaune also feels… ashamed of how he acted, notably more bitter about it than the girls. Could be how he was a moron who couldn’t perform even Huntsman basics, how he forged his transcripts, about how he never noticed Pyrrha’s affections, how he failed Pyrrha, or even all of it. Regardless, Ren points out that the fact that they all can look back and recognize how stupid they were shows that they’re not the same as hey were before. They have grown, matured, and become all the stronger due to it. The fact that Ren’s the one to voice that, and he was previously voiced by Monty, honestly hit me hard. In a way, it’s like Monty saying that about how far his character shave come. Mind you Monty is sadly gone, but his brother saying the lines still echoes how, to me, Monty would feel about the characters that he created. It’s good for character growth and it shows us just how far we’ve come since Volume 1. It’s a lovely moment, I liked it!

But it can’t stay happy for long, unfortunately. Now we go into the living room where everyone ha exchanged information. Weiss confirms to Ozpin that the info he shared is similar to Raven’s… but Yang points out one very key difference. Ozpin failed to mention the bird thing. When called out, Ozpin confirms it, even saying that Raven must trust her daughter a great deal to share that detail. I… doubt that’s why. It was mroe of a manipulative tactic to make Yang question who to side with. And while Ozpin is lighthearted, even jokey, about the entire thing, everyone else (minus Qrow) is shocked. Yang gets outright angry, asking how Ozpin could do such a thing. Gonna be honest, when watching this I… didn’t get why this was being made out to be a horrible thing. I got that it was unnatural even for this world since Aura and Semblance shave explanations, so it doesn’t count as magic but something a person can do. IDK if Yang knows about Qrow’s Bad Luck Semblance, but she does know of Raven’s portals, so she knows that Raven should NOT be able to become a bird via natural means. Rewatching the episodes for the review, it’s more clear to me that Raven made it out to seem like she and Qrow got forced into it and it had consequences. I don’t doubt the last part, even if we don’t know it yet, but I guess Raven’s wording and demeanor is why Yang felt like Ozpin did something horrible to her mother and uncle.

Qrow silences Yang however. He clarifies that he and Raven CHOSE to have the power given to them. Ozpin elaborates that the reason why he did this was because he both needed Intel on Salem and her faction’s plans and a way to find/watch over Maidens when the host changed. From a tactical perspective, that makes sense. He also confirms that he hasn’t done this for any others at this time, such as Glynda and Ironwood, due to his dwindling power. The power he used for this was minimal, but its still not something he would want to use repeatedly and deplete. Why is his power dwindling however? Well my friends, Ozpin FINALLY confirms what has been speculated since Volume 3. Yes, Ozpin is the wizard from the Four Seasons fairy tale. He’s the one who gave his power to the original Maidens. He doesn’t go into what happened after that, but he does confirm that he had no intentions of lying, but thee are things that he’d rather keep to himself.

With all that cleared up, Ozpin goes into choices. The Branwens chose to accept the power he offered them. Later, Raven chose to leave for her own reasons. Now, the six teens have a choice to make. If they want to leave, they can. After al, admitting that you don’t want to be a part of anything before committing is perfectly fine. The only true shame is choosing to retreat. At first, it looks like everyone is on board for seeing things through… until Yang rises. Ruby is stunned, but thankfully Yang isn’t leaving. She believes that f Ruby thinks that it’s best to stay, she’ll trust her sister’s instinct and stay as well. But she makes it very clear to Ozpin that there’s going to be some terms. Mainly, no mroe lies. No mroe half truths. If he wants them to help him, he’s going to have to start being honest. Ozpin agrees, but whether he’ll keep his word or not… is hard to say. I think there’s going to be things he doesn’t talk about, but that’s not really lying so… loophole I guess. But with everything cleared up, Ozpin tells the teens to go ahead and rest There is a lot of work ahead of them, but they’ve all been through a lot already and have just reunited, so it’s best that they take it easy while they still can. Very reflective of his words to Glynda in Volume 2.

We can’t end it there though, that would be nice. So we cut back to the Branwen tribe where Shay D. Mann (GDI CRWBY) and a few others are guarding the entrance. They are then approached… by Mercury and Emerald. Shit… Shay is annoyed after already suffering a rough week, but it gets worst. Cinder and Watts appear on the scene with Cinder giving the order to strike. We watch Emerald approach the guards, weapons drawn, as the chapter ends. Well… crap. That’s not good. Ugh… at least Mercury got speaking lines again? Haha…

Review

This, at the time of this review’s writing, is the shortest chapter in the volume. But that’s about my only complaint, and even then that’s hardly a complaint. This is technically a filler episode, but IDC I LOVED it. This is our calm before the storm, a time to let the characters rest, relax, and just be kids. Again, it’s been about two years since we got to see these characters just be happy and have fun. It felt so much like the old days where they had food fights and dances and get sick off bowls of ramen. It’s also good to see how much they have grown since those days. I remember watching the early volumes when Twitch did that marathon leading up to the Volume 5 premiere, and watching Weiss when she was… less than pleasant was SO jarring. But it helps show that the character have grown up. There’s more growth ahead, but they’ve made steps forward and it’s good to see them reflect on that.

As far as the talk goes, again I did find Yang’s reaction overdoing it a bit, but again after rewatching previous chapters, I understood it more. But now everyone is on the same page and Yang has made her stance to Ozpin clear. Will ti cause problems int he future? Probably, we’ll have to see.  IDK what else I can say about it that I haven’t already said. I will say that there’s a lot of debate on Ozpin. Is he good? Is he really evil? If you want my take, I believe that Ozpin is a good guy, but not a perfect one. If I wanted to compare him to any fictional character, I’d probably compare him to Dumbledore from Harry Potter. Both are the Big Good, a figure who has lived for a long time and is THE biggest threat to the main villain. They are also both very troubled figures who made many mistakes in their lifetimes. They are also manipulative, liars, but have a fatherly demeanor. Dumbledore isn’t evil though. Yes he is very skeezy and he practically set Harry up to be a sacrificial lamb. But he did so for the greater good and, if I’m gonna be honest, he seemed confident that Harry would survive and make the right choice, as demonstrated when he talks to the boy one final time after Voldemort struck Harry down. I feel this is the same for Ozpin. All his actions are for the sake of humanity, which he has made clear that he feels is the strongest force to exist. Do I think that he’s setting Ruby up for death? IDK if I’d got hat far, but he clearly needs her for something. But again, all his actions are for the good of humanity and he’s not going to force anyone into anything. He’s left Raven alone, after all.

Moving on to Yang though… lets talk about her and Ruby for a second. I love these two so much. In my last review I went onto the parallels between Ruby and Yang’s relationship and Qrow and Raven’s. This further emphasizes how Yang is devoted to Ruby while her mother walked out on her own brother. But a part of me does wonder if this is going to cause issues later. Yang, for all intents and purposes, is in this only for Ruby. Ruby is in this to help people. Both are understandable reasons, but if Ozpin is setting Ruby up for something, it may come into conflict. Yang obviously would NOT want Ruby to risk her life while Ruby, most likely, would do it even if she didn’t want to to save others. Will it cause a conflict between the sisters? Will there be other things, like Ruby becoming more self-reliant and causing Yang to feel un-needed? Will Yang quit later and try to make Ruby do the same with the latter refusing? Only time will tell. But for now, their bond is as strong as ever, and it makes me smile.

Conclusion

I… honestly don’t have much else to say. This was very much a breather episode, but it was a good one. We got some good character interactions/reflections in both a comedic and serious sense. The Branwen Tribe is about to have problems, but hey it’s moving us forward. The episode was just relaxing and fun with some drama sprinkled in here and there. It was just nice to sit back and laugh again at these wild and crazy kids. I missed it. Not the best chapter, I’d even call it the weakest since it was basically filler with no real plot progression, but like I said it was nice to have a chance to breathe after so many dramatic episode. Loved it, and now we’re halfway through the volume! Onto the second half!
