RWBY General Discussion

Blue.

i c wat u did there

Obviously, I chose that colour because ch00beh suggested the team name and their avatar is predominantly blue.

Man, looking at the YMMV page, the Base Breaker entry is huge. I wonder if that thing needs some trimming. It could easily be separated into its own page, really.

Don't know if this was posted already, but I just saw it.

Legend of Ruby: The Four Swords.

@D Roy. That's conversation. The whole thing could be cut down to a small paragraph per person. There's no way the Jaune or Vol 2 finale entries should be so long. Everything there could be covered in a couple of sentences.

Edited: I've had a go at cutting the entry down and put it on the Discussion Page to see if people think it works or needs a different approach. Personally, I still think it's too long and I'm not convinced some of those are genuine base breaker examples. I haven't even heard of the Nigri complaint and I've been to a couple of different RWBY forums.

Yeah, cut that part about Nigri. I never heard of that until now and honestly, how do you even over-sexualizes voice anyway. You either have sexy voice or you don't.

Done.

Maybe combine the Coco and Team CFVY entries since Fox, Velvet and Yatsu, while powerful, didn't seem to be as game breaking as Coco herself.

Done that, too. Thanks.

I think it looks good enough.

Perfect.

You know what I just realized?

At the end of Season 2, the situation for Ozpin and Ironwood should have been completely otherway around.

• in ep 4 and 11-12, he let a whole bunch of Paladin be stolen by a terrorist organization and lost them all.
• in ep 6-7, when Cinder infiltrated the inner part of the school, beating up the guards and such, he didn't do a thing. Sure, he could have not known that it was Cinder, but he let an unknown and potentially deadly combatant running around.
• In ep 10, he failed to notice a terrorist organization having a huge base.
• In ep 12, his forces arrived at the scene later than Team JNPR, and Sun and Neptune, and by the time they arrived, the students had the situation under control, more or less.

You know what.

Blake can't fight,

And Ironwood is incompetent.

dRoy, stop trying to make "Blake can't fight" happen. It's not going to happen.

On top of that his robots had the worst showing of everyone in that episode. Not only did they not kill any more Grimm than anyone else (Besides Sun and Neptune) but they were the only ones that a Grimm actually struck.

Well it did for a bit but Roman ruined it. Thanks, Rombama.

I think the robots would have had much better showing if we saw them helping civilians, like helping them escape from the scene and attacking the Grimms that are about to strike them, etc.

If I were to keep that going, I could say that if it wasn't for the special Dust clip that Weiss gave her, she couldn't have won and say that she never won any fight without other's help.

And yet Ruby and Weiss are beaten by a mook and an elite mook with a chainsaw respectively. Hell, Yang's the only good fighter on the team and she lost to an umbrella-wielding midget.

Don't you shit-talk Neo now. She's the shit.

Speaking of which, I think Neo is actually stronger than Roman.

Hmm, I have a theory that Neo is actually loyal to Cinder, sticking with Roman to act as his leash.

curbstomp battles in favor of the protagonists are boring.

To the credit of the coreographers (rip Monty), the fights in RWBY are fights. Except the teams in Breach versus the mooks, but who cares about those.

Neo gonna get it good

Hopefully by Neo.

I've added the Base Breaker entry to the main YMMV page. If I've missed anything, or someone thinks it can be worded better, feel free to update. Thanks for all the help.

D Roy mentions something that I've been curious about for while: I've seen, in quite a few places, Blake be criticised for winning with Dust as if that makes her worse than other characters. However, isn't this normal for huntresses/huntsmen to do? Shouldn't we be looking at it the other way around - in this world where hunters make themselves effective fighters through the use of Dust, why is Blake not using it as standard?

That fight, where she used Dust for the first time, was effectively the first time she fought "normally" for a hunter (as in, using a combination of weapons, aura and dust rather than just weapons and aura alone).
