[up][up] That, or Penny's father isn't simply Gepetto, but Gepetto meets Frankenstein.

If my post doesn't mention a giant flying sperm whale with oversized teeth and lionfish fins for flippers, it just isn't worth reading.

New Chibi is out.

  • Weiss is a dirty stinking cheater. At least Blake appreciates the joke.
  • Yang's puns are not appreciated.
  • CHIBI BEOWULF. Also, Jaune being ignored to the point of being mistaken for Sun.

[up]Oh, so the episode that was shown in the Volume 2 Tugg event has been released finally and is finished now? Good [lol]

To explain: Holy shit, the RWBY Chibi episode they showed at it was so unfinished it almost looked like a bootleg copy. Hell, there was a part where it just said SMOKE in big red letters on-screen when Jaune and Zwei got blasted by smoke [lol]

[up][up] Begs the question though. If being thrown off a cliff is Day 1 for first-years, what's Day 1 for second year, third year and fourth year? And what is required for graduation?

I think Sun's on to something here.

We need a Chibi episode where the teachers are sat in the staff room and are lesson planning because, seriously, to be a fly on that wall...

They can even have a funny background event - an empty seat at the table with a peach on it. And maybe a skip outside full of used coffee filters.

I presume the following years just get sent into various, increasingly difficult missions. Wouldn't surprise me if third-years and fourth-years didn't even spend that much time in Beacon proper. Would surely explain their absence.

As for the teachers' skit, I bet Prof. Port is too busy arming THE PORT FORT to contribute to a serious discussion. Then you have Oobleck OD'ing on caffeine and Ozpin being Gendoishly ominous for no good reason.

Ozpin would probably be channeling Dumbledore more than Gendo.

This is long dead and from several pages back, but Mario does technically have a "canon" it's just a very loose one.

For example we know that Mario's life progressed, at the very least, in this order:

  • Born, Yoshi's Island and sequels take place

  • Moved to Brooklyn

  • Super Mario Bros. and The Lost Levels with 3 coming after and then World immediately after that

  • Super Mario 64 sometime later

  • Super Mario Sunshine

And none of that requires any speculation. This is confirmed either in-manual or through character interaction.

[up] The Brooklyn party is highly debatable since every game that shows Mario's house that I can think of has it be in or near Toad Town which is near Peach's Castle in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Well, Port likes introducing live Grimm into his classrooms. Oobleck can't sit still because he's too busy wearing out the coffee filters. Ozpin is busy obsessing over the lesson timetables to make sure Team RWBY doesn't skip classes during their next play[1]. Glynda will initially look like she's the Only Sane Man, until she whips out her latest lesson plan... <insert insane combat regime that makes Nora's training look mild>

[1] Goldilocks, the two Bears and a Cat. And she will arrive at the House on Bumblebee, and she will find herself stealing pancakes (thanks, Ren!) instead of porridge. Except the play falls apart because Nora keeps eating the props.

On a more relevant note, I do hope we get to see the adult characters in Chibi, and not just the occasional voice-overs.

They probs taste like burnt steak, they look like they got the meat for it.

Though if they did taste like chicken, at least you'll have a positive before the black meat kills ya.

I don't know why, but something about this show makes rooting for villains and being racist (as in, to groups of people in the series, not in real world) so damn fun.

It always brings me joy whenever Adam does anything and the whole "It's okay, Faunus are not humans." joke never gets old for me. evil grin

I mean the Faunus usually aren't helping their cause since all but like 4 are violent terrorists fighting to wreck the world in the same of oppression we don't actually see happening.

Rooting for the bad guys crushing the girls smiles is a horrible thing to do though. You are bad and you should feel bad for it.

Am I allowed to grin maniacally while feeling bad?

But yeah, that's one of the parts the writers fail so hard. There are like literally two people who have displayed racist attitudes toward the Faunus and they are villains and bullies.

What about Weiss? I mean, she changes her tune quickly, but still. And if we go by what she and other characters say, the SDC and Atlas at large isn't too kind to Faunus

No. Then you're just being indecisive.

But seriously while villains can be compelling, I find that if you're actively rooting for the bad guys to ruin and kill the good guys (which are basically the goals of the RWBY villains) then you have to hate the show, because it obviously failed to sell you on it's good virtues. Either than or your just a twisted person that likes seeing suffering.

That's not true, and a hater would hate a show full force.

Rooting for villains is just a nice past time.

[up][up][up] She's not racist to Faunus, she's just racist to White Fang and Faunus criminals, and honestly, in that episode alone Sun had stowed away and (I think) stole stuff. She has no reason to view him favorably.

[up][up] If I really do hate something, you'd know.
