An AbridgedSeries of ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' made by Matt the Mammoth Rider. It's a series of captioned screenshots that can be found [[http://mammothrider.tumblr.com/post/92761748008/rwby-volume-one-recap-masterpost here]].
All of Volume 1 has been parodied, and the creator [[http://roosterteeth.com/members/journal/entry.php?id=3236124 has begun]] Volume 2.
Warning, '''spoilers below.'''
----
!! Includes the following tropes:
* AchievementsInIgnorance: Ruby manages to reassure Jaune's self-doubt while sleepwalking/talking. Jaune has no idea she isn't awake.
* AffectionateParody
* AllLowercaseLetters
** Ren's lines are displayed like this, to reflect his quiet nature.
** Inner monologues are also distinguished by this.
* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: [[invoked]] What most of the comedy's based on. The author actually celebrates Yang's [[NobodyTouchesTheHair hair issues]], because they provide easy comedy fodder.
-->''Can I just say that, from my perspective, how glad I am that her BerserkButton being damaging her hair can be a thing? I mean, I’ve made the funny recap pics using running jokes and the like with only tangential connections to actual canon - Ruby’s adorableness, Jaune’s mommy stuff and the everything else, Weiss and peasants, Pyrrha and [[{{Yandere}} potentially]] psychotic niceness; Blake the queen is canon, though, and nobody can tell me different - but Yang has been the hardest to nail down.''
* AuthorAppeal: The creator ''adores'' Blake, and is not shy about showing it- other characters frequently refer to her as 'the queen', and the title of Episode 2 is simply ''[=BlakeBlakeBlakeBlakeBlake=] (And other people appeared too, sure)''.
** Neo's introduction however has made Matt forget all about Blake
-->'''Matt:''' Blake who?
* BadassBoast:
** Penny: "I'm like the angel of death! Y'all have any regrets yet?"
** Velvet...tries.
-->"I will have my Easter-y revenge!"
* BaitAndSwitch: The [[http://mammothrider.tumblr.com/post/86784030123/rwby-volume-two-opening-recap-volume-two-general recap]] for Volume 2's opening ends on this:
-->''Gimmie an H!''\\
''Gimmie a Y!''\\
''Gimmie a P!''\\
''Give me directions to the dining car because the Hype Train has left the station already and I'm hungry.''
* BeachEpisode: Jaune comments, after the end of his arc, that he hopes they get one.
* BelligerentSexualTension: How Ozpin sees the relationship between Weiss and Ruby.
-->'''RW report card:''' They'll either kill each other or be making out by the end of the year. Could go either way.
* BigWhat: Matt's reaction to learning that Weiss has a sister. It even gets interrupted by the screencaps twice!
* BloodKnight: Professor Port.
-->'''Professor Port:''' I was invited to don the guise of a chap named Ernesto and get my jollies off in a blood sport at Miss Schnee's summer home! A rather good show all said.
* BonusMaterial:
** ''RWBY’s Greatest Plot Twists [[BlatantLies That Totally Happened]].''
** ''[[http://mammothrider.tumblr.com/post/92746981373/rwby-volume-one-awards RWBY Volume One Awards]]''
** ''[[http://mammothrider.tumblr.com/post/81290945296/what-rwby-jnpr-n-pals-are-getting-up-to-in-their-first What RWBY JNPR ‘n Pals Are Getting Up To In Their First Hiatus]]''
* BreadEggsMilkSquick: Matt's analysis of Weiss.
-->''Weiss Schnee works hard to be a good student. She is bullish, prideful, and quick to anger. She had a lonely and fear-filled childhood. She is tenacious and stubborn to a fault. She is capable of learning from her mistakes, and she can apologise for those mistakes and mean it. She is probably secretly a mastermind who dreams of ruling the world and bathing in the blood of all those considered inferior. She is also definitely not actually that last one...''
* BreakingTheFourthWall: When Weiss references the series' game-esque physics.
-->'''Weiss:''' You moved out of turn!
-->'''Ruby:''' What are we, in a [=JRPG=]?
-->'''Weiss:''' We could be!
* BrickJoke: In ''Jaunedice'', Ruby wonders idly if Pyrrha wants her cookies. A while later...
-->'''Pyrrha:''' Let's leave and eat some cookies.
-->'''Jaune:''' Why don't you steal Ruby's cookies?
-->'''Pyrrha:''' Not out loud Jaune, dammit!
-->'''Ruby:''' I freaking knew it!
* CaptainObvious: The scene of Ruby flying towards the Nevermore is simply captioned: "Epicness intensifies."
* {{Catchphrase}}
** Sun's is "Apple?"
** Pyrrha has a few variations of "How grand."
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: As an explanation of why only Jaune was present in one of the class scene, Jaune thinks to himself as he watches Weiss fight the Boarbatusk:
-->Okay I guess it was worth skipping out my team's trip to the water park for this\\
Though I just realized why Pyrrha asked for a white t-shirt for the trip so... Fiddlesticks
* DamnedByFaintPraise: Ren comments that a dead beowulf is one of the 'more thoughtful' birthday presents Nora's given him.
* DarkerAndEdgier
** Nora's suggestion of how to deal with Cardin is even bloodier than it was in the original.
** As is Pyrrha.
-->"Let's go somewhere and discuss how we'll dispose of his body."
* DistractedByTheSexy
** Torchwick is distracted by Sun's abs.
** Even Blake is not immune to the abs.
--->'''Blake:''' Your abs do have a point. <Thinking> ''I could grate cheese on 'em.''
* DoubleEntendre: The scene where Pyrrha unlocks Jaune's Aura is played for all the sexual comedy it's worth.
* DontYouLikeIt: Nora gives dead Beowolves to her friends. Pyrrha is suitably unimpressed.
* DualWielding: In Episode 10, Ruby notices that Ozpin is carrying both his coffee mug and his cane instead of one of the other. When she asks what's up with that, Ozpin explains that he's learned how to dual-wielding. As a result, he's having a great day. Unfortunately for Ruby, this means he celebrated by eating all the cookies.
* EvilOverlord: Weiss is [[{{Flanderization}} flanderized]] into one of these.
-->"Live in fear, commoners, for I will gut you like pigs- literally. You've seen me do it now. To an actual pig."
* FeatheredFiend: Discussed.
-->''In hindsight, I’m not shocked all of CRDL are dicks. Their names are all based on birds and stuff. Birds suck, man. Spring soon here in Australia and that means swooping magpies. Birds succcccccck.'' '''Addendum:''' ''Shoutout to Rustic_Ghost who sent me a solidarity ask in this matter, affirming that magpies do indeed suck.''
* ForScience: The reason why Velvet raised her hand when Oobleck asked of any had been persecuted for their faunus heritage.
-->'''Velvet:''' Yesterday somebody tried to cut off my foot to make a lucky charm.\\
'''Weiss:''' Pfft. It was for science.
* GladIThoughtOfIt: Inverted. Ruby credits the idea of making bunk beds to Blake.
* GratuitousFrench: Jaune says 'J'accuse!' when he accuses Weiss of [[ItMakesSenseInContext killing Colonel Mustard]] ([[TabletopGame/{{Clue}} in the ballroom, with the lead pipe]].)
* HilariousOuttakes: Referred to as 'leftover screencaps' on the series page, they incorporate jokes that didn't make it into the actual recap.
* HopeSpot: Blake gets one in ''Black and White''.
-->'''Blake:''' I'll prove the world wrong. The White Fang aren't evil.
-->'''Mook:''' Steal the dust and go kick some puppies, or something!
-->''[Blake's face falls]''
* ICallItVera: Torchwick calls his cane "Stevey."
* InSeriesNickname: Pyrrha is called "P-Money" by the other characters.
* InWhichATropeIsDescribed: Used in the chapter titles.
-->''Episode 10: Ruby And Weiss Learn Life Lessons All Over The Place ([[DemotedToExtra Blake And Yang Just Chill Out]])''
* KlingonPromotion: Weiss tries this is one of the outtake segments.
* LikeAnOldMarriedCouple: Nora and Ren apparently like to go antiquing.
* LovesTheSoundOfScreaming:
-->'''Ruby:''' Haven't seen Weiss this happy since that bus full of orphans crashed.
-->'''Weiss:''' I did love hearing their screams on the news, it's true.
* MindlinkMates: Jaune and Pyrrha are this in a throwaway gag.
* MoodWhiplash: The recap consists of captioned screenshots- the content of which is exaggerated for comedy- interspersed with more serious paragraphs of text, in which the author explains and analyzes what's actually happening in canon. So you get, for example, a sombre retelling of Blake's past right above an image where she declares her desire for vengeance on a chess piece.
* MyFriendsAndZoidberg: "And so, the volume ends with Team RWBY united...and Sun, who is just there to get laid."
* ObliviousToLove: Jaune's inability to see Pyrrha's attraction to him is exaggerated, particularly in Episode 12:
-->'''Pyrrha''': ''[after bringing Jaune to the rooftop of Beacon]'' "This would be a good place to propose to me at hint hint."\\
'''Jaune''': ''[looking over the edge]'' "Also a good place for suicide; it's dual purposed so I approve of it."
* OhMyGods: Characters swear on Dust.
* TheRival: Oobleck is quite bitter about Ozpin's monopoly of the reputation for being a hardcore coffee drinker. He's willing to interrogate students over it if he has to.
--> '''Oobleck''' ''(to Jaune)'' Tell me who's better at drinking coffee? Me or Ozpin? I should remind you that I will end you if you say him.
* RhymesOnADime: Episode 7's recap is written entirely in this style.
* RougeAnglesOfSatin: The spelling is generally spot-on, but the author did take inspiration of the community's frequent misspelling of Jaune's name as "Juane" to make up the joke character of Juane Arc, Jaune's Hispanic cousin.
* RunningGag
** {{Mooks}} screaming "Now we have regrets!" upon being beaten.
** Torchwick declaring he's made a "flawless escape" whenever he [[VillainExitStageLeft cuts and runs]].
** Emerald ringing the bookshop bell.
** On occasion, the scene from the Volume 1 Opening where Adam's silhouette is shown, with the caption being "Adam's Moon Log, Week [X]," followed by Adam lamenting that he's stuck on the moon.
* SacrificialLion: While analyzing the second Volume's opening, Matt speculates that either Pyrrha or Velvet will end up becoming this.
* SafeWord: "Hammertime."
* SelfDeprecation: Ruby's drawing of Professor Port is noted as "still a better artist than the guy who makes these screencaps".
* SeriousBusiness: Apparently humans discriminate against Faunus because they cancelled ''Series/{{Firefly}}''.
* ShaggyDogStory: In the ''The First Step- Part 2'', the author writes a ''150-word backstory'' simply to make it funnier when [[spoiler:Ruby crashes into a random bird on her way into the Emerald Forest]]. (Transcript hidden to avoid spoiling the joke.) [[note]]
-->''For many minutes upon hours upon days upon weeks upon months upon years upon decades upon centuries, I have survived. Trapped in this witless bird’s body, flying as the seasons change for [no other] reason than my instincts telling me to, but I am still myself where it counts.''
-->''I had grand plans once, of making the legends of Grimm seem naught but a stubbed toe compared to the horrors I would unleash upon every living being, dawn to dusk, in dreams and nightmares. I would place the world beneath my heel and squash it like it was an ant.''
-->''Then that Huntress, all those centuries ago, wielding Dust in ways we ancient ones considered as easy as taking a breath, and those pitiful mortals now could never manage, sealed me in this form. But I have been patient. I outlived her. I outlived her kin. The curse won’t hold forever, and when I… Wait. [[FamousLastWords What’s that red blur flying towards-]]''
-->RIP: "Birdie, no!" bird (Many centuries ago -- Episode Five) [[/note]]
* ShipSinking: Discussed in the ''Jaunedice'' recap; the author reassures Arkos shippers that this is ''not'' happening when Jaune fights with Pyrrha.
* ShoutOut
** In ''Forever Fall- Part 2'', Pyrrha quotes the song ''I Will Survive''.
** Beacon Academy is compared both to [[Literature/HarryPotter Hogwarts]] and [[Franchise/FinalFantasy Balamb Garden]].
** Blake begins her exposition in episode 16 by quoting ''Franchise/StarWars''.
** The tumbleweed's theme song is ''Wrecking Ball''.
** "The ice prison around Weiss’s heart melts, though a full breakout might take as long as it took Andy in ''Film/TheShawshankRedemption''..."
** In ''The Emerald Forest'', Pyrrha remarks: "[[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire You know nothing, Jaune Arc.]]"
** The ''Forever Fall'' recap references both ''Pokemon'' and Princess Peach.
** Adele's "Rolling In The Deep" seems to be Matt's soundtrack of choice for Arkos angst.
** EVERYTHING that comes out of Caridn's mouth in ''Jaundice'' is a line or more from some song. Even Jaune gets in on it at one point.
-->'''Cardin:''' (after stuffing Jaune in his rocket-propelled locker): He's a rocket man!
-->'''Jaune:''' Major Tom to ground control: Screw you.
** Volume 2 has a RunningGag of a lot of characters considering ''VideoGame/MassEffect'' {{Dialogue Tree}}s before speaking, with the iconic "I should go" being in each one.
* SophisticatedAsHell: The Ursae speak in stereotypical British slang. When Yang punches one, its response is: "Cor blimey! My royal jewels!"
* SoProudOfYou: Weiss' reaction to Ruby discriminating against fish.
* SpeakOfTheDevil: Ozpin's appearance right behind Ruby in The Badge and the Burden part 2.
* TheStarscream: Glynda desperately wants to quit her job and go on a violent killing spree. Ozpin knows this and fears for everyone's lives - especially his own.
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: In ''Jaunedice- Part 1'', Pyrrha and Ruby use the same phrase in their internal narration.
* TakeThat: When Ironwood is presenting the AK-200 units via hologram:
-->'''Ironwood:''' Now I couldn't be here in person on account of the high possibility of these machines turning on humanity and horrifically murdering us all.
-->'''Spectators:''' ''[Mild applause]''
-->'''Ironwood:''' Why would you applaud that? What is this, an Apple press conference?
* WaxingLyrical: All of Cardin's dialogue in his introductory episode, such as "Bye Bye miss American Pie" as a PreAsskickingOneLiner, or "He's a rocket man!" when he shoves Jaune into the rocket-propelled locker.
* WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: Lampshaded in the report cards, when Ozpin questions why [[TheAce Pyrrha]] would willingly team up with [[ButtMonkey Jaune]].
-->''I am thinking of booking Miss Nikos in for some kind of brain scan, just in case.''
* WhatTheHellHero: Weiss is given one in ''Black and White''.
-->'''Ruby:''' Like, I'm not even surprised Weiss caused another implosion in our group dynamic.
-->'''Weiss:''' But I'm always right, dammit! And Jaune imploded his team and didn't get this much grief.
-->'''Yang:''' Yeah, but Jaune apologized- you know, like a human being!
* WhosLaughingNow: Averted. Jaune considers turning evil twice so he can invoke this trope, but decides against it because Pyrrha gives him hope of getting laid.
* {{Yandere}}: Nora in the deleted screencaps.
-->"I'm not saying 'Love me or you'll die...' but I also don't want you to die, if you catch my drift."
** Penny, at one point.
-->'''Penny:''' I can be your new favorite if you love me. LOVE ME!
-->'''Ruby:''': Aaah, please don't stab me!
* YankTheDogsChain: One of Adam's Moon Logs has him on the receiving end:
-->"''Adam's Moon Log, Week Fifty-Five'': Someone finally made contact with me today. But before I could explain my plight and beg for a rescue, the feed cut out. Hope is fleeting and a fickle bitch. I hate everything."

-->''I am thinking of booking Miss Nikos in for some kind of brain scan, just in case.''
* WhatTheHellHero: Weiss is given one in ''Black and White''.
-->'''Ruby:''' Like, I'm not even surprised Weiss caused another implosion in our group dynamic.
-->'''Weiss:''' But I'm always right, dammit! And Jaune imploded his team and didn't get this much grief.
-->'''Yang:''' Yeah, but Jaune apologized- you know, like a human being!
* WhosLaughingNow: Averted. Jaune considers turning evil twice so he can invoke this trope, but decides against it because Pyrrha gives him hope of getting laid.
* {{Yandere}}: Nora in the deleted screencaps.
-->"I'm not saying 'Love me or you'll die...' but I also don't want you to die, if you catch my drift."

to:
An AbridgedSeries of ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' made by Matt the Mammoth Rider. It's a series of captioned screenshots that can be found [[http://mammothrider.tumblr.com/post/92761748008/rwby-volume-one-recap-masterpost here]].
All of Volume 1 has been parodied, and the creator [[http://roosterteeth.com/members/journal/entry.php?id=3236124 has begun]] Volume 2.
Warning, '''spoilers below.'''
----
!! Includes the following tropes:
* AchievementsInIgnorance: Ruby manages to reassure Jaune's self-doubt while sleepwalking/talking. Jaune has no idea she isn't awake.
* AffectionateParody
* AllLowercaseLetters
** Ren's lines are displayed like this, to reflect his quiet nature.
** Inner monologues are also distinguished by this.
* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: [[invoked]] What most of the comedy's based on. The author actually celebrates Yang's [[NobodyTouchesTheHair hair issues]], because they provide easy comedy fodder.
-->''Can I just say that, from my perspective, how glad I am that her BerserkButton being damaging her hair can be a thing? I mean, I’ve made the funny recap pics using running jokes and the like with only tangential connections to actual canon - Ruby’s adorableness, Jaune’s mommy stuff and the everything else, Weiss and peasants, Pyrrha and [[{{Yandere}} potentially]] psychotic niceness; Blake the queen is canon, though, and nobody can tell me different - but Yang has been the hardest to nail down.''
* AuthorAppeal: The creator ''adores'' Blake, and is not shy about showing it- other characters frequently refer to her as 'the queen', and the title of Episode 2 is simply ''[=BlakeBlakeBlakeBlakeBlake=] (And other people appeared too, sure)''.
** Neo's introduction however has made Matt forget all about Blake
-->'''Matt:''' Blake who?
* BadassBoast:
** Penny: "I'm like the angel of death! Y'all have any regrets yet?"
** Velvet...tries.
-->"I will have my Easter-y revenge!"
* BaitAndSwitch: The [[http://mammothrider.tumblr.com/post/86784030123/rwby-volume-two-opening-recap-volume-two-general recap]] for Volume 2's opening ends on this:
-->''Gimmie an H!''\\
''Gimmie a Y!''\\
''Gimmie a P!''\\
''Give me directions to the dining car because the Hype Train has left the station already and I'm hungry.''
* BeachEpisode: Jaune comments, after the end of his arc, that he hopes they get one.
* BelligerentSexualTension: How Ozpin sees the relationship between Weiss and Ruby.
-->'''RW report card:''' They'll either kill each other or be making out by the end of the year. Could go either way.
* BigWhat: Matt's reaction to learning that Weiss has a sister. It even gets interrupted by the screencaps twice!
* BloodKnight: Professor Port.
-->'''Professor Port:''' I was invited to don the guise of a chap named Ernesto and get my jollies off in a blood sport at Miss Schnee's summer home! A rather good show all said.
* BonusMaterial:
** ''RWBY’s Greatest Plot Twists [[BlatantLies That Totally Happened]].''
** ''[[http://mammothrider.tumblr.com/post/92746981373/rwby-volume-one-awards RWBY Volume One Awards]]''
** ''[[http://mammothrider.tumblr.com/post/81290945296/what-rwby-jnpr-n-pals-are-getting-up-to-in-their-first What RWBY JNPR ‘n Pals Are Getting Up To In Their First Hiatus]]''
* BreadEggsMilkSquick: Matt's analysis of Weiss.
-->''Weiss Schnee works hard to be a good student. She is bullish, prideful, and quick to anger. She had a lonely and fear-filled childhood. She is tenacious and stubborn to a fault. She is capable of learning from her mistakes, and she can apologise for those mistakes and mean it. She is probably secretly a mastermind who dreams of ruling the world and bathing in the blood of all those considered inferior. She is also definitely not actually that last one...''
* BreakingTheFourthWall: When Weiss references the series' game-esque physics.
-->'''Weiss:''' You moved out of turn!
-->'''Ruby:''' What are we, in a [=JRPG=]?
-->'''Weiss:''' We could be!
* BrickJoke: In ''Jaunedice'', Ruby wonders idly if Pyrrha wants her cookies. A while later...
-->'''Pyrrha:''' Let's leave and eat some cookies.
-->'''Jaune:''' Why don't you steal Ruby's cookies?
-->'''Pyrrha:''' Not out loud Jaune, dammit!
-->'''Ruby:''' I freaking knew it!
* CaptainObvious: The scene of Ruby flying towards the Nevermore is simply captioned: "Epicness intensifies."
* {{Catchphrase}}
** Sun's is "Apple?"
** Pyrrha has a few variations of "How grand."
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: As an explanation of why only Jaune was present in one of the class scene, Jaune thinks to himself as he watches Weiss fight the Boarbatusk:
-->Okay I guess it was worth skipping out my team's trip to the water park for this\\
Though I just realized why Pyrrha asked for a white t-shirt for the trip so... Fiddlesticks
* DamnedByFaintPraise: Ren comments that a dead beowulf is one of the 'more thoughtful' birthday presents Nora's given him.
* DarkerAndEdgier
** Nora's suggestion of how to deal with Cardin is even bloodier than it was in the original.
** As is Pyrrha.
-->"Let's go somewhere and discuss how we'll dispose of his body."
* DistractedByTheSexy
** Torchwick is distracted by Sun's abs.
** Even Blake is not immune to the abs.
--->'''Blake:''' Your abs do have a point. <Thinking> ''I could grate cheese on 'em.''
* DoubleEntendre: The scene where Pyrrha unlocks Jaune's Aura is played for all the sexual comedy it's worth.
* DontYouLikeIt: Nora gives dead Beowolves to her friends. Pyrrha is suitably unimpressed.
* DualWielding: In Episode 10, Ruby notices that Ozpin is carrying both his coffee mug and his cane instead of one of the other. When she asks what's up with that, Ozpin explains that he's learned how to dual-wielding. As a result, he's having a great day. Unfortunately for Ruby, this means he celebrated by eating all the cookies.
* EvilOverlord: Weiss is [[{{Flanderization}} flanderized]] into one of these.
-->"Live in fear, commoners, for I will gut you like pigs- literally. You've seen me do it now. To an actual pig."
* FeatheredFiend: Discussed.
-->''In hindsight, I’m not shocked all of CRDL are dicks. Their names are all based on birds and stuff. Birds suck, man. Spring soon here in Australia and that means swooping magpies. Birds succcccccck.'' '''Addendum:''' ''Shoutout to Rustic_Ghost who sent me a solidarity ask in this matter, affirming that magpies do indeed suck.''
* ForScience: The reason why Velvet raised her hand when Oobleck asked of any had been persecuted for their faunus heritage.
-->'''Velvet:''' Yesterday somebody tried to cut off my foot to make a lucky charm.\\
'''Weiss:''' Pfft. It was for science.
* GladIThoughtOfIt: Inverted. Ruby credits the idea of making bunk beds to Blake.
* GratuitousFrench: Jaune says 'J'accuse!' when he accuses Weiss of [[ItMakesSenseInContext killing Colonel Mustard]] ([[TabletopGame/{{Clue}} in the ballroom, with the lead pipe]].)
* HilariousOuttakes: Referred to as 'leftover screencaps' on the series page, they incorporate jokes that didn't make it into the actual recap.
* HopeSpot: Blake gets one in ''Black and White''.
-->'''Blake:''' I'll prove the world wrong. The White Fang aren't evil.
-->'''Mook:''' Steal the dust and go kick some puppies, or something!
-->''[Blake's face falls]''
* ICallItVera: Torchwick calls his cane "Stevey."
* InSeriesNickname: Pyrrha is called "P-Money" by the other characters.
* InWhichATropeIsDescribed: Used in the chapter titles.
-->''Episode 10: Ruby And Weiss Learn Life Lessons All Over The Place ([[DemotedToExtra Blake And Yang Just Chill Out]])''
* KlingonPromotion: Weiss tries this is one of the outtake segments.
* LikeAnOldMarriedCouple: Nora and Ren apparently like to go antiquing.
* LovesTheSoundOfScreaming:
-->'''Ruby:''' Haven't seen Weiss this happy since that bus full of orphans crashed.
-->'''Weiss:''' I did love hearing their screams on the news, it's true.
* MindlinkMates: Jaune and Pyrrha are this in a throwaway gag.
* MoodWhiplash: The recap consists of captioned screenshots- the content of which is exaggerated for comedy- interspersed with more serious paragraphs of text, in which the author explains and analyzes what's actually happening in canon. So you get, for example, a sombre retelling of Blake's past right above an image where she declares her desire for vengeance on a chess piece.
* MyFriendsAndZoidberg: "And so, the volume ends with Team RWBY united...and Sun, who is just there to get laid."
* ObliviousToLove: Jaune's inability to see Pyrrha's attraction to him is exaggerated, particularly in Episode 12:
-->'''Pyrrha''': ''[after bringing Jaune to the rooftop of Beacon]'' "This would be a good place to propose to me at hint hint."\\
'''Jaune''': ''[looking over the edge]'' "Also a good place for suicide; it's dual purposed so I approve of it."
* OhMyGods: Characters swear on Dust.
* TheRival: Oobleck is quite bitter about Ozpin's monopoly of the reputation for being a hardcore coffee drinker. He's willing to interrogate students over it if he has to.
--> '''Oobleck''' ''(to Jaune)'' Tell me who's better at drinking coffee? Me or Ozpin? I should remind you that I will end you if you say him.
* RhymesOnADime: Episode 7's recap is written entirely in this style.
* RougeAnglesOfSatin: The spelling is generally spot-on, but the author did take inspiration of the community's frequent misspelling of Jaune's name as "Juane" to make up the joke character of Juane Arc, Jaune's Hispanic cousin.
* RunningGag
** {{Mooks}} screaming "Now we have regrets!" upon being beaten.
** Torchwick declaring he's made a "flawless escape" whenever he [[VillainExitStageLeft cuts and runs]].
** Emerald ringing the bookshop bell.
** On occasion, the scene from the Volume 1 Opening where Adam's silhouette is shown, with the caption being "Adam's Moon Log, Week [X]," followed by Adam lamenting that he's stuck on the moon.
* SacrificialLion: While analyzing the second Volume's opening, Matt speculates that either Pyrrha or Velvet will end up becoming this.
* SafeWord: "Hammertime."
* SelfDeprecation: Ruby's drawing of Professor Port is noted as "still a better artist than the guy who makes these screencaps".
* SeriousBusiness: Apparently humans discriminate against Faunus because they cancelled ''Series/{{Firefly}}''.
* ShaggyDogStory: In the ''The First Step- Part 2'', the author writes a ''150-word backstory'' simply to make it funnier when [[spoiler:Ruby crashes into a random bird on her way into the Emerald Forest]]. (Transcript hidden to avoid spoiling the joke.) [[note]]
-->''For many minutes upon hours upon days upon weeks upon months upon years upon decades upon centuries, I have survived. Trapped in this witless bird’s body, flying as the seasons change for [no other] reason than my instincts telling me to, but I am still myself where it counts.''
-->''I had grand plans once, of making the legends of Grimm seem naught but a stubbed toe compared to the horrors I would unleash upon every living being, dawn to dusk, in dreams and nightmares. I would place the world beneath my heel and squash it like it was an ant.''
-->''Then that Huntress, all those centuries ago, wielding Dust in ways we ancient ones considered as easy as taking a breath, and those pitiful mortals now could never manage, sealed me in this form. But I have been patient. I outlived her. I outlived her kin. The curse won’t hold forever, and when I… Wait. [[FamousLastWords What’s that red blur flying towards-]]''
-->RIP: "Birdie, no!" bird (Many centuries ago -- Episode Five) [[/note]]
* ShipSinking: Discussed in the ''Jaunedice'' recap; the author reassures Arkos shippers that this is ''not'' happening when Jaune fights with Pyrrha.
* ShoutOut
** In ''Forever Fall- Part 2'', Pyrrha quotes the song ''I Will Survive''.
** Beacon Academy is compared both to [[Literature/HarryPotter Hogwarts]] and [[Franchise/FinalFantasy Balamb Garden]].
** Blake begins her exposition in episode 16 by quoting ''Franchise/StarWars''.
** The tumbleweed's theme song is ''Wrecking Ball''.
** "The ice prison around Weiss’s heart melts, though a full breakout might take as long as it took Andy in ''Film/TheShawshankRedemption''..."
** In ''The Emerald Forest'', Pyrrha remarks: "[[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire You know nothing, Jaune Arc.]]"
** The ''Forever Fall'' recap references both ''Pokemon'' and Princess Peach.
** Adele's "Rolling In The Deep" seems to be Matt's soundtrack of choice for Arkos angst.
** EVERYTHING that comes out of Caridn's mouth in ''Jaundice'' is a line or more from some song. Even Jaune gets in on it at one point.
-->'''Cardin:''' (after stuffing Jaune in his rocket-propelled locker): He's a rocket man!
-->'''Jaune:''' Major Tom to ground control: Screw you.
** Volume 2 has a RunningGag of a lot of characters considering ''VideoGame/MassEffect'' {{Dialogue Tree}}s before speaking, with the iconic "I should go" being in each one.
* SophisticatedAsHell: The Ursae speak in stereotypical British slang. When Yang punches one, its response is: "Cor blimey! My royal jewels!"
* SoProudOfYou: Weiss' reaction to Ruby discriminating against fish.
* SpeakOfTheDevil: Ozpin's appearance right behind Ruby in The Badge and the Burden part 2.
* TheStarscream: Glynda desperately wants to quit her job and go on a violent killing spree. Ozpin knows this and fears for everyone's lives - especially his own.
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: In ''Jaunedice- Part 1'', Pyrrha and Ruby use the same phrase in their internal narration.
* TakeThat: When Ironwood is presenting the AK-200 units via hologram:
-->'''Ironwood:''' Now I couldn't be here in person on account of the high possibility of these machines turning on humanity and horrifically murdering us all.
-->'''Spectators:''' ''[Mild applause]''
-->'''Ironwood:''' Why would you applaud that? What is this, an Apple press conference?
* WaxingLyrical: All of Cardin's dialogue in his introductory episode, such as "Bye Bye miss American Pie" as a PreAsskickingOneLiner, or "He's a rocket man!" when he shoves Jaune into the rocket-propelled locker.
* WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: Lampshaded in the report cards, when Ozpin questions why [[TheAce Pyrrha]] would willingly team up with [[ButtMonkey Jaune]].
-->''I am thinking of booking Miss Nikos in for some kind of brain scan, just in case.''
* WhatTheHellHero: Weiss is given one in ''Black and White''.
-->'''Ruby:''' Like, I'm not even surprised Weiss caused another implosion in our group dynamic.
-->'''Weiss:''' But I'm always right, dammit! And Jaune imploded his team and didn't get this much grief.
-->'''Yang:''' Yeah, but Jaune apologized- you know, like a human being!
* WhosLaughingNow: Averted. Jaune considers turning evil twice so he can invoke this trope, but decides against it because Pyrrha gives him hope of getting laid.
* {{Yandere}}: Nora in the deleted screencaps.
-->"I'm not saying 'Love me or you'll die...' but I also don't want you to die, if you catch my drift."
** Penny, at one point.
-->'''Penny:''' I can be your new favorite if you love me. LOVE ME!
-->'''Ruby:''': Aaah, please don't stab me!
* YankTheDogsChain: One of Adam's Moon Logs has him on the receiving end:
-->"''Adam's Moon Log, Week Fifty-Five'': Someone finally made contact with me today. But before I could explain my plight and beg for a rescue, the feed cut out. Hope is fleeting and a fickle bitch. I hate everything."
