For anyone who wasn't here when White Nun was still around, we had our own warrior monk right here on the site, battling pagan Trianglists:

I don't know.
They keep saying RWBY.
If we don't properly name our enemies how can we tickle fight them to death, like with ISIS.
Sure their music is good but they need a better singer, I think he has throat cancer.

Despite how cliched it is, yo've gotta give two things to RWBY, first, it's friggin beautiful at times, second the intro to the second season is just badass. It could never have hoped to live up to red vs blue, but I'd say, Monty made an effort.

I could probably look past that if the story was good, but nope. Maybe it gets better, but when the opening scene is a bunch of badly voiced bad guys robbing a store and then having edgy grimdark red riding hood pull out her sycthe and be like "PSSSH NOTHING PERSONAL KID" to attack a bunch of grown men i lost interest.
I just watched the first episode and I totally agree. The animation is pretty ugly too.

I just feel like if a dude who shitposts on a lego forum can do a better job naming his clearly japanimation inspired characters than a dude who apparently makes money off that shit then something is wrong.

It's weird that I didn't maybe I'm rubbing off on him.
Or rubbing off to him? Either way.


Also @gorthaff you know wuxia films are ridiculous also right? People can't actually run on bamboo fyi.

I saw Dead Leaves today. To summarize it, What if Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann was Redline?

I just think that actually animating a fight is cooler than than turning the cjharacters into flailing balls of fists and legs.

Monty Oum is an animator, not a writer. He did write RWBY tough, so that might be the reason.
