I’m just curious about this. I won’t go into too much details on which ones I like but bonus points to whoever guesses my favorite of the 4 first lol. Anyway I wanted to ask this question sooner but I decided to wait until I finished volume 6. Now as far as I’m aware, these are the 4 most popular ships that has Ruby involved.

Also bonus question for the Lancaster shippers only: Why do you ship them together? And I’m asking y’all specifically because a month ago I asked which Jaune ship was your favorite between WhiteKnight and Arkos. And several y’all said Lancaster (I didn’t know what that meant at the time until someone told me) and someone in the comments suggested I make a post asking why y’all like/love this pairing lol.

Btw, none/all of them can be an answer. It’s just for the fun of it and to see where you guys stand 😅.

I sometimes have random thoughts and questions appearing in my mind about a show and characters and I figured I can share those kinds of questions/thoughts once every week until season 3 airs lol.

So we’re out here trying to find Oscar. It’s a big town for such a little guy. Jaune blames himself for what happened. Honestly, it’s a nuanced situation. Sure he took it too far and took it out on someone who didn’t deserve it, but it’s not like his emotions weren’t valid either. I appreciate Saphron helping Team JNR find him and even tried to understand the situation they’re going through even if it’s not that simple.

So Jaune is still feeling guilty about all of this, Nora suggests a cafe but he’s gonna take a moment on the bench while Ren and Nora went ahead.

Oh look at that an autumn leaf. Wait… why does this OST sound familiar… oh my goodness 🥺………………

Due to emotional trauma, this viewer is unable to continue their review of the episode. We apologize for any inconvenience. Feel free to leave your comments below 👇. Thank you and have a great day.

The rules are:

Alright, your opponents are:

6. Robin

So in the between realms, Light talks with Ozma. He tells him about the tragic end of humanity (Gee I wonder how that happened?). There’s still hope for humanity to return except this time, they won’t be around to see it. Only a fraction will remain.

So he tells Ozma about the four powerful relics and basically, they work on Dragon Ball rules except there’s no wishes. Instead they will be judged. If humanity fails to live in harmony and set aside their differences and continues to demand their blessings while fighting amongst each other, then they’ll be labeled as irredeemable. And they’ll be wiped from existence.

Yeesh no pressure at all buddy! First of all this is humanity we’re talking about. I get what you’re saying but you’re making it sound like if we’re not good 100% of the time then we’ll get extinct again 😭. Also we’re your creations. So we have the powers of destruction AND the power to choose, what do you think humans are capable of with those two things? So this is quite the ultimatum pal!

Anyway, Oz is now basically cursed with immortality as well except he can actually die but his soul will live on as he’s in charge of protecting the relics. “Salem lives, but the woman you hold dear in your memories is gone.” Gee I wonder why??

He’s now been reborn into a random person, and he’s unfamiliar with the world he once knew. No one can perform magic like they used to, Faunus has been created amongst Humans, and there have been whispers of a Witch (I see what y’all are doing lol) who he’s convinced was Salem. He’s goes to her broken down cabin and when she sees him, her expression softens like she knew who he was. Their connection must be very strong. Them reuniting actually got an ‘awe’ out of me. Why am I feeling this way? 😭😅

They catch up, the cabin is in better condition. And now that the Gods aren’t around, Salem believes they can convince humanity that they’re Gods since they have all the power. Ozma was hesitant about it at first but he goes through with it. They took care of the Grimm together, and everyone bowed to their gods.

Years have gone by, and Oz I’m assuming Married Salem. Oh, and got BIZAY!! It’s a whole family! With 4 daughters (I’m gonna take a wild guess and assume they’re the original 4 Maidens). All of them seem to have magic, which should be a wonderful moment. All seems good 😌. But then….

They seemed to not agree on how humanity should be built and defined so Oz tried to take the kids away and Momma was absolutely furious. A battle rages on, their fight shook their castle to collapse. In Salem’s eyes, she felt betrayed that her lover did not want to partake this newfound freedom they finally have, and finishes him off.

Oz spends a good deal of his reincarnations grieving and drinking his problems away trying to forget about the unfortunate events before he finally locked in to take care of business. He seeks out the Relic of knowledge and asks Jin the 3 questions with his last question being an answer that’s very haunting: “How do I destroy Salem?”

“You can’t….”

So… let me get this straight, we’re out here breaking backs, loosing lives, loosing limbs, at each others throats to try to stop a woman who’s still feeling raw because of her failed marriage. And you’re telling me she can’t be stopped?! Oh wait, she’s immortal so it’s not like she can die! Oz! Do you even have a plan to stop Salem? Because unless we can Talk no Jutsu our way to victory, I don’t see how we can physically defeat someone who’s impossible to kill. I can’t believe it, we were doomed from the start 😭. Listen I understand why Oz didn’t tell them I mean it’s not the most reassuring news. But then if there’s no way to physically stop someone who’s immune to dying and assuming our reliable leader doesn’t have a plan, then what are we fighting for? We’re just gonna be in an endless battle until she wins!

Ruby I hope you got your protagonist speech ready because I don’t think fighting her is gonna solve this problem 😭.

I sometimes have random thoughts and questions appearing in my mind about a show and characters and I figured I can share those kinds of questions/thoughts once every week until season 3 airs lol. We got a month to go!!

I feel like putting aside her antagonistic energy, with her intelligence and skills with different medicines and poisons matching well with Maomao’s. Who knows what would’ve happened if two of these minds came together? Now how well they would get along is an entirely different story.

Before I push forward let me get this out the way:

Of all the STUPID! ASININE! SHARK JUMPING BULL$#!%! WDYM CINDER IS STILL ALIVE?! Oh my god she just won’t die 😭. She should’ve been dead twice and yet somehow the universe keeps blessing her with another chance 😤.

Anyway she’s alive, hooray, no one cares. And she’s ou- wait a minute! Don’t tell me the clothes she’s wearing is that woman she found?! (Goes to check) Oh my god it is! That absolute monster 👿. Whatever her powers are drained and she went to this little bar and she’s greeted by Lil Miss Malachite (interesting name), where she wants intel on our heroes.

Also this must be some dangerous group because those with the Spider tattoos work for her. And it appears Cinder is not the first person to ask about the heroes whereabouts. I am curious what she meant when she said “what we don't know is who here in Mistral might be asking about her.” Makes me believe that someone is looking for Cinder? But who? Honestly I don’t care, if they want a hit on her then I’ll root for them 🤣.

Meanwhile…

So we know that this relic has to be taken to Atlas. Why? Idk but I’m sure it’s important. I love how Weiss was like “ughh really? I just escaped that place and now I gotta go back?” And Nora responds with a line that I’m pretty sure that best describes how people felt after Volume 5 ended: “I mean, on the bright side, we finally get out of this house!

Unfortunately it’s their best option since Raven left it open after she left (thanks mom). So since Ironwood is closing its borders, their best chance is they have to get to Argus and convince the military based to take them straight to Ironwood (I pray he hasn’t gone off the deep end by the time we get there).

So this Relic of Knowledge is basically what you get when you mix The Genie from Aladdin and The Oracle from… oh also Aladdin as well lol (shout out to those who’ve seen Aladdin and the King of Thieves). Except this relic can’t share events that has yet to happen, and it will only ever answer three questions every 100 years. In Aladdin obviously you have The Genie who can grant 3 wishes and The Oracle can only answer one question per person.

So now they’re stranded and we’re left with Maria which given her decor and very advanced technology, I don’t believe she’s defenseless (unless I’m wrong lol). Also Yang and I have the same idea because I literally said whatever happened to no more half truths and secrets? Like yeah you told us about the relic and its properties but you didn’t bother saying that it would attract danger.

Oz is still dodging important information and answers and… I’m like conflicted and it’s funny because I’m currently watching another show that also involves a person keeping a secret or telling half truths. Like yeah he’s lying about Lionheart dying a hero despite everything he’s done both with Beacon and in Mistral. And he’s hiding very crucial information. That said, if you were to ask me how far are you willing to go to find the truth? I would honestly say… not very far. Sometimes the truth is not all that it’s cracked up to be 😅. Yes it’s morally the better option but sometimes the truth can do more harm than good. And sometimes there’s a time and a place for honesty.

And based on what he’s saying I can understand why he would feel hesitant on sharing everything even to those he feels like he can trust the most. But then something crazy happens. Before Oz could demand the relic back, Oscar took over for a moment having a mental battle with Oz who’s trying to prevent Ruby from summoning Jinn. She says her name, she appears, 10,000+ fanart later, and turns out she has 2 questions left to tell (Guess Oz was lying about that too). Ruby asks about what is he hiding and he tried to stop her but everyone is now in a white void.

Now I originally wanted to review 2 episodes but unfortunately I believe next episode is purely backstory so I’m breaking it up into two parts so I can solely focus on that. This episode was nuts! And we got a peak at Salem. My only question is: what happened to her?

Before I push forward let me get this out the way:

Of all the STUPID! ASININE! SHARK JUMPING BULL$#!%! WDYM CINDER IS STILL ALIVE?! Oh my god she just won’t die 😭. She should’ve been dead twice and yet somehow the universe keeps blessing her with another chance 😤.

Now I originally wanted to review 2 episodes but unfortunately I believe next episode is purely backstory so I’m breaking it up into two parts so I can solely focus on that. This episode was nuts! And we got a peak at Salem. My only question is: what happened to her?

So when I first heard that Adam Taurus of all characters gotten a short, I was stunned. Wdym Adam has a short? It’s the longest short to date! More importantly, why Adam specifically? Couldn’t there be a short about Jaune? Ren? Nora? Not even Sun? Shoot I’ll even settle for Neptune. But no, it’s Adam. This should be interesting 🧐…

(7 Minutes Later)

Okay now I feel kinda conflicted, but not really. So it started with Adam helping some Faunus break into some Dust facility because why should they care about the human properties after the way they’ve treated them over the years. And listen it’s not like I don’t understand what he’s saying and I’m not against characters fighting against an oppressive system but there’s a right way and a wrong way to do it.

On the surface yeah Adam is fighting for their cause but he’s going through such extreme lengths to the point where you question if he has the same motivation. And look I’m not trying to defend the humans or anything but actions like this aren’t gonna make things better for the Faunus. If anything, he’s acting no different than the people who act violently against them. I know this sounds cliche but 2 wrongs don’t make a right.

It also doesn’t help that Sienna Khan was (enabling is probably not the word I’m looking for) not acting upon how he’s been working on the field. Yeah sure he saved Ghari (The Leader at the time), but taking them out the way he did wasn’t necessarily. Btw, I barely seen this guy fight until now and let me tell you, he’s a scary opponent to fight against, especially with whatever he does with his sword.

And we see this continue on various missions how he’s just killing various humans or close to killing them. He keeps reassuring Blake that it was all accidental and yet he still does it. This must’ve been the conversation she was talking about when she was on the fence about what Yang did to Mercury during the tournament. I’m glad Blake got out when she did because this was a toxic environment with a toxic person. Makes sense why she finally decided to split during her first trailer.

Sienna continues to send him out there and even telling him that he’ll have a place by her side someday (And we all know how that turned out). Also, so she can fight! 🤣 I’m gonna give them a pass only because there’s only so much for them to work with due to a Siphoned budget (CURSE YOU GEN:LOCK!!). Transitioned to him now leader of the White Fang. And this is so funny because he’s got word on the Haven situation and he’s like “Don’t worry about it. It’s time I gotten what I deserve.”

He says as he limps away like a wee b!#%$ 😅😂.

So what’s my takeaway from this? Adam is kinda Pathetic 😅. Anyway he might have a bigger role next volume. Maybe not. Either way, I’m ready!

I came across this tweet from Dana and I’m gonna be so honest, after what happened with the previous Glitch show I got some slight trauma from what happened. Can you blame me though 😅😭?

Idk what episode 2 is going to entail but I do know one thing’s for sure, we can’t have another TADC disaster happen for the dumbest reasons. So whenever episode 2 comes out, if the show is not your Jam, you’re free to leave. We have to do better in not engaging with content that we’re clearly not enjoying.

This is NOT to say constructive criticism isn’t warranted. The issue is that it’s always taken to far or it’s not even a criticism anymore, but more so a complaint that bothers a viewer specifically and has nothing to do with the series or the characters themselves. It’d be one thing if the content was genuinely bad but half the time good quality shows and characters get more vitriol than the shows and characters that warrant it.

This is my long way of saying, If there’s a good/great piece of content out there and you’re finding more things to complain about vs good things to comment on, then perhaps the show isn’t for you and you should move on to other things. It’s not that hard. I do it for shows I don’t like or enjoy. So there should be nothing stopping y’all from doing the same.

Wow I had more to say than I expected 😅.

Just a fun side thing to post while I work on my remaining thoughts on volume 5.

Now don’t get me wrong, I can understand at the time why it’s considered the worst volume. It arguably has the weakest in terms of pacing and fight scenes and if you were watching this as it was airing at the time, it can feel grating at times. The fact that this volume suffered from half of its budget being siphoned in favor for another series didn’t help especially if you’re going into this unaware of what happened behind the scenes. And while I believe that your opinions on best and worst volumes would mostly vary depending on personal preferences, I will say that as it stands, the hate is definitely overblown.

Btw I hope it was worth it because if Gen:lock isn’t an S tier series with a universally beloved fanbase, then we’re gonna have a problem.

Honestly the distain for this volume made me feel bad for it. As I stated in my previous post: “I know the fights have been pretty… well lackluster this volume (I’d argue Volume 4 has it beat in that category) and tbf knowing what I know now, I’m aware it’s not the crew or the animators fault. I sure hope people weren’t too hard on them like they’re accusing the lack of fights and choreography is due to Monty’s passing. Like I would hate if this volume was wrongly accused of not being as good due to not having the Monty’s touch, and is no longer being involved when in reality they’re still getting used to the new software but more so because half of its intended budget went into another show that had only one season. Like criticizing it is fine but we also gotta understand the unfortunate circumstances that the crew had to go through behind the scenes and still made it work the best they could.

It’s my long way of saying, the animation team did the best they could with the remaining resources they had at the time.

I honestly should thank y’all for the heads up going into this volume and I should also thank the haters as well. Idk if it’s because I had a different viewing experience or it’s because they set the bar so low for what I should expect. But I came out of this volume more content than I expected.

What it lacks in action, it more than makes up for it with its character driven moments. And I love character driven storytelling. Considering RWBY is a coming of age series I believe this approach is well handled. The scene with Ruby and Oscar, The talk between Weiss and Yang, the reunion scenes, everything involving Blake and Ilia, everything involving Yang and her complicated feelings about her mother. And that final confrontation between her and Raven had more emotional and tension to it than it would have been if they started throwing hands.

It appears the White Fang (minus Adam) has been taken out. I’ll go over this B story more in its own post but it does look like The White Fang storyline is coming to a close. The Belladonna family and Sun definitely kicked butt.

Team RWBY after two volumes is finally back together again. 🎶 Gee it’s good to be together ag- 🎶

“No! Stop 🛑*. We’re not getting copyrighted today*!”

My bad 😅. Anyway, the Cowardly lion I- mean, Leo got axed by Salem. I have mixed feelings because on the one hand, yeah he did do what he did and it wasn’t good and he let his fear get the best of him. On the other hand, I can’t imagine anyone not doing what he did out of fear and just to survive by taking what he believed was the Winning side.

Emerald went flipping ballistic over Cinder dying. Is this gonna be another Adam and Blake situation?

The villains escape, the day is saved. And I think they’re planning on going to Atlas next now that they retrieved the Relic. Actually two things: 1. What was Raven planning to do with the relic if Yang hadn’t interfere? Runaway and hide? 2. Where are they gonna stash that thing? Unless it has a shrink n grow feature there’s no way they can safely carry it around during their quest. Unless they have a trusted friend who can watch over it.

Speaking of Raven, it appears she went to pay Tai a visit. I can only imagine what that’s going to look like 😅.

Overall solid volume. A good 7-8/10. Honestly if I wasn’t that invested with the characters and what they’re going through I would’ve liked this volume less than I do now. I still have other stuff I wanna talk about (stuff involving The Menagerie subplot and Raven is getting their own dedicated posts). I’m pretty satisfied with this volume. Sure quality wise it’s not the best and while I don’t consider it to be my favorite volume (3rd place in case y’all are wondering), it will be the volume I have the most respect for considering the lengths the crew had to pull off to put out a quality volume despite the unfortunate circumstances. They definitely deserved their flowers for making the best out of a rough situation.

Volume 6 here I come!

Wait what?

(Whispers in ear)

Wdym Adam has a short?!

Man my reviews for this volume have been all over the place 😭. There’s other things I want to share my thoughts on and I haven’t gotten to them yet. Welp I guess these past couple of volumes perfectly match my reviews lately 😅. Volume 4 I broke it down into character sections. Volume 5 due to my own behind the scenes stuff, I haven’t been able to review this volume how I wanted but I still made it work.

Now with all that being said……… HOLY $#!% RAVEN IS THE SPRING MAIDEN?!?! You know, they had me fooled thinking that Vernal was the Spring Maiden. But no! It was Raven all along!

I feel so conflicted because on the one hand, I have my mixed, conflicting, complicated feelings on Raven. Like almost everything about her interactions with her daughter (that’s definitely getting its own dedicated post), wasn’t great. Her getting the villains to agree to take out her brother, wasn’t great. Like she has these moments where there’s more to her and she’s one of the most interesting characters I’ve come across in a show because she’s so hard to read sometimes. But then you have moments where she says to Ruby that she sounds like her Mom and uses her portal to open fire towards her. And where she tells Yang that she won’t be as kind the next time they meet again. Which is very concerning considering I haven’t seen the last episode yet and I’m nervous how this interaction is going to go down 😭.

On the other hand…. Cinder was the catalyst for the Fall of Beacon, the death of some of my favorite characters, and almost took out Weiss (who is also becoming my favorite character), and is currently top billing for my most hated character in the show…

TAKE HER DOWN RAVEN!

Cinder is sooo lucky that Jaune came in clutch and unlocked his semblance to save Weiss. Shoot, I wouldn’t be upset if he took Raven out. After he just let out his emotions about how heartless she is for all the pain and suffering she caused with a smile on her face and she has the AUDACITY to say: “who are you?” Like you mother f— acting as if you don’t even know who I am. I was feeling Jaune at that moment.

Anyway we get the battle of the two Mages which is honestly the best fight of the Volume. I know the fights have been pretty… well lackluster this volume and tbf knowing what I know now, I’m aware it’s not the crew or the animators fault. I sure hope people weren’t too hard on them like they’re accusing the lack of fights and choreography is due to Monty’s passing. Like I would hate if this volume was wrongly accused of not being as good due to not having the Monty’s touch, and is no longer being involved when in reality they’re still getting used to the new software but more so because half of its intended budget went into another show that had only one season. Like criticizing it is fine but we also gotta understand the unfortunate circumstances that the crew had to go through behind the scenes and still made it work the best they could.

Tangents aside, it’s a great battle and I for one am happy that Cinder met her demise. I’m glad she’s dead. She’ll be added to the villains that died so far:

Roman
Neo (considering after what happened to her and there hasn’t been any word of her fate for two volumes now, I’m just gonna write her off as dead)
Cinder (thank the lord)
Dozens of White Fang Soldiers

You guys get 3 days worth of prep time. Talk No Justu/bribery won’t save you. Manipulative tactics won’t save you. And lastly, everyone here is at their peak performance.

Those are optional in case you don’t believe you can take them on without needing an extra boost. Have fun 🤩😉

Cinder I somehow hate you even more now. I didn’t think it was possible but here we are.

At this point I’m just convinced that half the cast secretly loves Blake lol. Adam likes her, Sun likes her, now Ilia is revealed to like her. Anyone else wants to come up and say that they love Blake Romantically? Not saying it’s a bad thing, it’s just a direction I didn’t expect. Like obviously I knew she cared about Blake. I just didn’t think it ran this deep 😅.

When Ilia said that Blake was too busy falling for Adam to Notice, I thought for a split second that she also had a thing for Adam as well. That’s far from the case, she wanted Blake to look at her that way 😧. That’s crazy! Like dang…

I’ll go into it more when I post about my thoughts on this Menagerie subplot so stay tuned….

Now I’m about to watch the final 4 episodes of volume 5. Now assuming that she doesn’t do something in these last batches of episodes to make me put her on the list, y’all better get your defense arguments ready lol. I won’t read them until after I finish. But that’s only assuming she doesn’t do something to make me outright hate her because I’ll tell y’all now it’s not looking good for her.

I’m still giving her some grace but she could tarnish that in a blink of an eye depending on what she does in these final episodes (or potentially next volume).

Listen, it has been a rough viewing experience. I had to watch my favorite character in the show get completely lobotomized and mischaracterized and mistreated constantly by this fandom. Then I have to watch said favorite character going through a downward spiral and suffering a great deal and now people wanna start liking her and giving her grace. Very late for that pal, y’all really don’t appreciate good characters until you see them suffer do ya? No don’t answer that.

Anyway I already watched 3 back to back episodes of Marinette going through it with this secret, her grandfather, and her brief breakup with Adrien and getting akumatized (Heartfixer review coming soon). It just hurts seeing your favs suffer a great deal. I took a short break to breathe and decided you know Maybe RWBY can make me laugh and cure my sorrows…. I finished Volume 3 and I was depressed 😭.

So naturally hearing that the next episode was gonna be a Nino episode, I was feeling good about. Y’all don’t nearly give Nino enough credit for the good things he’s done in the show and give him flack for the dumbest reasons. So I was excited to see what The Chained Titans has in store….

…… And we got potentially divorced parents 😭. I finally got to see Marinette get a well needed break but now Nino is going through it. At this point just rename this season “We all got Mommy/Daddy issues.” Can’t I have 1 current show I’m watching not have someone in the main cast having mommy and daddy issues if not both? And I swear to god if now people wanna start liking Nino after this episode I’m gonna start nuking neighborhoods because ain’t no way it took these absolute DOLTS, 6 seasons and one episode about another character having family troubles what it takes to start liking them. They were already good before these episodes but y’all were too busy hating to see it.

“But suffering builds character. It helps them be relatable.”

Listen maybe it’s because I’m getting hit with 4 different shows right now with characters in the main cast suffering a great deal in their respective shows. And maybe it’s because I’m starting to reach my angst meter/quota, But unless your name is Spiderman (and even that can get grating after a while), that phrase can burn in a pit for all I care. Just know any Nino slander after this episode is gonna pay some serious consequences. I already have a month dedicated to him coming soon, don’t test me.

Now you would think that I dislike the episode. 🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. No I enjoyed this episode. Might be my favorite of the season, which is saying a lot considering how this season has been on a roll. It’s all good stuff, it’s emotional, and the hero designs for both Marinette and Adrien are great 😊. I’ll release my full thoughts on it soon but right now… I need an emotional break 😭. Maybe I’ll see what Phineas and Ferb are up to. At least I won’t get emotionally destroyed by their adventures 😅.

I sometimes have random thoughts and questions appearing in my mind about a show and characters and I figured I can share those kinds of questions/thoughts once every week until season 3 airs lol.

I know what her name is translated to and she definitely shares those traits. I’m just curious in my mind on how did she get the name Maomao lol. There’s probably no real answer but that’s the fun part about Headcanons lol 😉.
