#rwby commentary

[amozon28]

i think the most heart breaking part in the entire episode is when Ruby breaks down  crying and says

“I’m sorry, I don’t want to be me anymore”

because its the first time shes actually voiced how shes feeling the entire season, the entire series. like she said in episode 7 shes always the one to say the right thing, and put on he brave face, and playing the part of the perfect leader.

and throughout this episode while fighting Neo she’s tried to defend herself without really being honest about her feelings, “its not my fault” or “i was just trying to save everyone” again and again shes focusing on how shes impacting others and not talking about how SHE FEELS

so when everything comes tumbling down, when she finally breaks and thinks shes save with the cat to finally actually have a moment to herself, she appologizes for not wanting to even be herself anymore, because the ideal she has been forced to live as is too much for her, and not wanting to be that perfect ruby is somehow a failing she needs to apologize for.

its so fucking sad

Here is the full quote, full stop:

“Blake has been bisexual for the longest time - to her. Like I’m not talking about from a character perspective. And you know, I think, maybe what has taken this a little while, one because we wanted it to feel right, but two, you know, I think this is something that is new for Yang. You know, and uh, she’s realizing something about herself.” - Kerry

Today marks a week after the revelations from CRWBY's Volume 9 Bluray commentary, that Blake is Yang's first love and gay awakening.

The following text is from these Twitter/X pics of the commentary notes (together with my addition of the roles Yssa and Kerry had). Transcribed partly for my own benefit because my eyes don't do well with dark mode, hopefully useful for anyone who can't read text in pics.

Yssa (episode director) says she cries at the same part every time she watches the Bumbleby scene (it's the part where the clouds part and Blake and Yang share knowing looks) Kerry (show runner, also episode director for Bumbleby scene): "We could have had an amazing scene on Remnant, but there's something special about having them do it here [in the Ever After]." Kerry says Blake has known herself as bisexual for a while, but Yang is still discovering her sexuality as of this scene. "Blake has been bisexual for the longest time - to her. I'm not talking from a character perspective... This is something that's new for Yang, and she's realizing something about herself."

This doesn't explicitly say Blake is Yang's first love, but that's pretty obvious with it being new for her, and in the way Yang is so tentative with her confession. It explains why it's "I think I love you." That 'think' says a lot. It doesn't mean she's not sure or not really in love with Blake, although there's probably at least one person out there who assumed that. Actions speak louder than words: you need only see how she looks at Blake.

As others have said, it's not clear yet exactly what Yang's sexuality is, only that it includes being attracted to Blake. While it'd be great representation to know for sure if Yang is lesbian/bi/pan, I can't help but wonder if it'd be better if we never find out and only know she's Blakesexual. Because it doesn't take much for people to lash out at others, especially over matters close to their hearts like a character they identify with.

I think it's entirely possible Yang had a crush on Blake all the way back to Beacon days, and was in denial about what it meant, with how she only realises what it means up there on the precarious bridge in the Ever After.

Yang: I know, let's speed this up by dropping any big truths on each other that we haven't shared yet!

Yang: Oh no. We're not just gal pals. I have a crush on Blake.

Yang: Gay panic.

Yang: Oh no this isn't just a crush. Help.

Fortunately Blake was there to reassure and encourage her to confess, or Yang might've ended up tossed down into the Punderstorm that was presumably still below the footbridge.

RWBY Character Analysis: Ozma aka Ozpin-- A Humorous Explanation by Lurker-Archon

Found this fantastic R/RWBY comment and had to share it here.

https://www.reddit.com/r/fnki/comments/wikl33/comment/il2tvpv/?context=3

Are you a masochist that will take an impossible task by gods who will kill you all if you ever call them back before you finish?

Do you have an interest in reincarnating into a boy and take over his life, and eventually, his very mind?

With or without consent, let us hop right into RWBY.

RWBY, an obscure spin off of the Valthirian Arc flash game series, is set in the world of Remnant, occupied by the 4 corners the political compass: Authoritarian Right, Authoritarian Left, Libertarian Left, and Libertarian Right, which are Atlas, Mistral, Vacuo, and Vale respectively. As you can guess, this can lead to disagreements and conflict. However, all four nations have come to mutual understanding of who the real enemies are: the Grimm. Mindless monsters that are indiscriminate on who they attack and bear no allegiance to any political ideology: the Centrists. And as we all know, all centrists must die.

Now, before we get into the excruciating, torturous gameplay, we must first get into the excruciating, torturous lore.

There once were two gods, God of Light and God of Darkness. Don't let the names fool you into thinking this is some gay New Testament Jesus and Satan bullshit. This is Greek mythology bs where the gods' personal drama personally fucks up the life of some random mortal, whom in this case was your wife Salem. After you died of ligma, Salem asked the gods to revive you. GoL refused because death is sacred part of life she must accept, while GoD refused because he's offended she asked GoL first.

As punishment for her arrogance, GoL gives Salem immortality. Is it the messed up kind where she gets older indefinitely? No, she stays young forever and is invulnerable to any damage. You might say, "I don't get it, that sounds exclusively beneficial", I would say, um, well, it's supposed to teach her the value of life and death or something.

Anyways, GoL's "punishment" resulted in Salem desiring death very much. So in a way, it worked really well on one half. However, unable to learn the other half, Salem instead gathers every army in the world by promising them immortality and YOLO-ing them against the Gods. This just ticked off GoD, who then proceeded to blow on the moon and bring armageddon, leaving her all on alone on a burning surface of the planet, a Remnant of the previous world.

Left utterly alone, Salem does the unthinkable. She takes the Centrist pool and becomes the queen over the creations of GoD also known as Grimm. Before, these centrist creatures were mostly harmless due to being disorganized, united by no cause. Now ever since Salem took control, they are an international threat to all political orientations, one of them even specifically designed to make our young generation apathetic to current politics..

Where do you fit into all this? After the planet was glassed medium-rare, GoL brought you back to life to give you the ultimate mission: unite humanity. He then gives you four exclusive premium MMO items called the Relics that will summon him and GoD back. But if he comes back and he still sees the players unable to decide how to split raid loot, he will finish what GoD started.

What a nice guy. He just wants to help a brother out.

Armed with your objective, the first thing you did was actually team up with Salem, not knowing her betrayal to everything good. To be honest, I don't blame you. You both ruled over the new world as gods, and even had 4 beautiful children. But soon it became apparent she had no governing philosophy, establishing no tax policy. I must clarify. I don't mean there were no taxes. There just wasn't any "policy". She "taxed" by taking anything she wanted, at any time, which could mean taking the very rockbed below your house to build her castle, eating the very last peach you were saving for your children, and, gods forbid, sitting next to you in the movie theater and taking your buttered popcorn bucket.

Disgusted by this barbarism, you decided to sneak out with the children, only to be caught and fight magic duels until the castle collapses on your children and you die. Salem is neither pro-life nor pro-choice. She is anti-life and anti-choice. Truly, no greater evil can be conceived by any other than the diabolical centrists.

Oh, and when you die, you reincarnate in the mind of another person, whose name must start with O. And after some time, both of your minds will eventually meld, into one. Now, where does individuality begin and end? Did the host disappear, or was it slowly eroded? Did Ozma die long ago, or is he a conjoined twin of your evergrowing minds?

There's only one thing to be certain, and that is to stop asking those questions, and focus on your goal. Stop Salem from destroying humanity by spreading her non-ideology throughout this world, and hopefully, eventually, maybe, unite humanity divided by opposing ideologies.

Good luck~

What is at your disposal? Who are you in this world? You are Ozpin, Headmaster of a Huntsmen school where all the students and teachers have guns. "School shootings" isn't something to prevent; it's something to encourage and integral to your school's security. It's also your deterrent to anyone trying to get into your office.

As the person in charge of these promising youths, your job is to prepare them for the harsh and cruel world. Therefore it is imperative that you make sure to cut out the chaff from the wheat by whatever means necessary. That includes throwing them with a catapult and see if they land without becoming red mist, putting them on opposite ends of a shooting range to teach them how to dodge, and prepare them for the international political debate where they persuade the masses that you are right by using your opponent's face to plug hot geysers.

Now you might ask yourself, what would happen if, say, some stupid noodle blonde that doesn't even know how to survive getting shot, applies to your school? Answer: let him in. See if he survives. Worst case, what happened was natural selection, and the gene pool is now less polluted. If his parents get angry and sue you, pay a visit to the judge. If he or she is a true Valean, the problem won't even come up in the newspaper.

Put your students in co-ed dorms. Because as a wise man once said, "There are no mistakes. Only happy accidents, that will fight and kill for your cause". And as your pool of students grows, so does potential recruits as agents in your shadow council.

What do you do with agents? Among just making sure Salem's agents aren't pulling their social experiment prank of the century, they can make sure to make sure 4 certain women in the world isn't going crazy or kidnapped. What's special about these women you ask? Remember the 4 reality-breaking divine items you were given? Well you locked them away in the 4 different countries in their respective schools, and turned some girls into their keys and gave them superpowers. Why did you do all that? Because you are a wizard, and you are just following the examples of your god to make things needlessly complicated, probably for some tangentially related moral lesson.

Just remember, you are not the protagonist. You are nurturing the protagonists who will save this world, so guide them through the difficult moral questions. Are the White Fang misunderstood, or are they Centrists? Is it unethical to dab over the enemy over winning the fight? Is there ever point where a weapon is nothing more than a convoluted impractical monstrosity?

Answer however you like, because all your attempts to try to nudge them in your directions will fail. So join in for the ride. When Salem plays her cards and apocalypse start, select your heroes and go on the world tour to gather the Relics.

How will they unite the world and fulfill the Gods' request to "unite humanity"? Will they tell the truth and suggest annihilation is the only alternative? Will they take the utilitarian approach and kill everyone who disagrees until all that are left, are the united?

Perhaps it's none of these things. Perhaps, ideologies are not important. Perhaps the answer to all of this, to all the answer to life and all its conflict, was smug anime faces.

Gods help us all

As always, more contents to come, so stay tuned. A warm thanks to the many members of the merchants guild. Generously funding, and bankrolling these videos.

You're all truly wonderful. Have a good one.

Currently think about Ruby being in a really dark place and losing herself to her grief and self hatred, and the one person always by her side being Little, even in ascension

thinking about the line from episode 1

“But perhaps victory is in the simpler things that you’ve long forgotten. Things that require a smaller, more honest soul”

Thinking about how that line once applied to Ruby as her introduction to the story, but now she is the one needing to be saved by a smaller more honest soul

RWBY V9E6 DVD COMMENTARY

Because I know what the people want —

Here’s the commentary on the Bridge Scene in Episode 6:

“We could have done it on Remnant, but there’s something so special about doing it here [the Ever After].” Noting that it feels “more private” and something that Yang, in particular, would need.

“Feel so weird being able to finally actually talk about this stuff.” - Kerry re: Bumbleby

“Blake has been bisexual for a long time [to herself].”

I DO NOT WANT THIS TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT OR CONSTRUED ANY WHICH WAY, BECAUSE I DONT THINK THEY ARE SAYING ANYTHING ONE WAY OR THE OTHER ABOUT YANG’S SEXUALITY. But one of the reasons they stated they took their time getting to this moment with Bumbleby is that “This is something new for Yang…it’s something she’s realizing about herself.” [in contrast to Blake knowing herself in this regard - see bullet above]

They chat about Casey Williams knocking it out of the park.

“So they smooched!” - Kerry, trying to downplay the gushing they just did for minutes once the scene was over.

Paraphrasing: “I’m really happy with how it all came together. It took a lot of people to make it all come together like that. I think it’s one of the things I’m most proud of being a part of creatively.” - Eddy “Me too.” - Kerry

Kerry also discusses some of the logistics involved with creating the Bridge Scene, from the assets, to the mocap, to the wind, etc. Bit hard to convey via a bullet, but just a high level overview of all the moving parts and teams that went into the scene.

“Every single person who touched this scene in some way put in their everything.” - Kerry

“I love the squeak from Ruby.” [when Blake/Yang get caught macking]

An alternative line for Jaune when they were writing was “I cant believe I’ve been gone for years and that still hadn’t happened.” But they thought it was a bit too cynical.

#rwby #rwby v9 commentary #Bumbleby #My DVD showed up in the mail today much to my surprise #There’s also a part where Eddy talks about the Punderstorm sounding stupid on paper #and that someone was going to quote that ten seconds of commentary and blast it on twitter #so i wont put it here without context lol
