[up] I should frelling hope not!

As far as Taiyang goes...given Ruby learned her abilities from Qrow, Taiyang probably (I can't remember if it's ever been confirmed) fights like Yang. I have very, very little doubt the guy's a total badass in a fight. His daughters both are, he was part of a team consisting of a trio of incredible fighters.

Even his dog's a badass

Honestly, I half expected after the "Hello, my darling"! line to have him curse and mutter how much cooler than line sounded when he practiced it all alone in his room at 2 AM.

@Phil: Before episode 11, there were plenty. Now...Not really, besides the occasion person who was butthurt about his canonical personality not lining up with the fanon. Also, nobody seems interested in my conjecture about how much time passed over the course of the 3 volumes.

[up][up] It's the same issue with team RWBY, which was revealed more than a year (I think) before the show actually aired, resulting in people coming up with fanon personalities for them that were completely different from canon, ie Ruby as a stoic, solitary '90s Anti-Hero.

Who knew a little girl with a giant ass Scythe would have a personality of a Cinnamon Roll?

Looks like the series now is going to give her more focus with the reveal of her special eyes. Something she clearly has been needing for a while

I think that only ~6 months have passed. It goes from the beginning of the school year (typically August) to the winter season (beginning December) which gives a 6 month window for it to have happened, which is fitting for how the story progressed.

[up] A semester is generally half a year however, and volume 1 covered their first semester.

[up][up] Honestly, I kinda get the feeling that Pyrrha was written as a Decoy Protagonist, despite the name of the series giving away who the real protagonist is, which is one of the reasons I maintain that naming the show RWBY was kinda a mistake.

I think they mentioned in Volume 2 they've been at Beacon for a semester, and since Volume 3 (barring the timeskip at the end and the Villain Episode Flashback) takes place over a week, so that makes sense as well.

Or maybe they are in July, not everyone lives on the northern hemisphere tongue

So i noticed that all of the confirmed parents that are around are all fathers. We only got two named mothers shown. One is dead, and the other is buying cigarettes [lol]

[up][up] Volume 2 was supposed to be RWBY's second semester at beacon however.

[up] Oh yeah, I forgot about that.

Just hearing about Ruby being a nineties anti hero is hilarious. Makes me wonder what a Rob Liefeld created Rwby would be like

[up][up][up]Have you seen the World Map of Remnant?

Beacon's right on the equator. So it could go either way

@fasoman: Hey, Raven stopped smoking after she had her first child.

She's been off buying milk for this time.

@Time convo: ah, yeah. I forgot about that.

[up][up][up] It's more that, when we first saw the red trailer, FNDM saw an Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette wielding a Sinister Scythe with a Red and Black and Evil All Over color scheme and came to the conclusion that she was an Anti-Hero on that basis.

[up][up] If Beacon was on the equator, Vale must either be at an extremely high elevation, because otherwise there wouldn't be winter, just a wet season/dry season.

The first thing i noticed before i got into RWBY was everyone wondering "How the hell are Ruby and Yang sisters?" prompting Monty to confirm they are Half-siblings

[up] They weren't known to be sisters until the show's premiere, or perhaps the Yellow trailer IIRC.

The primary reason for that was that they didn't share surname. Although i would say that Ruby Xiao Long doesn't sound as cool as Ruby Rose.

However, Ruby Branwen also sounds cool for some reason tongue

[up] It wasn't just the surname, more that they don't look anything alike. Not that that's impossible mind you, my sister has dirty blonde hair, hazel eyes, and a significantly lighter skin tone than me. I agree that Ruby Branwen sounds cool.
