COLD OPEN:
Clip of me calling Watts’ jacket ugly from Chapter 1 reaction. Watts showing up with new jacket this episode. Leave it to Watts to be super metatextually spiteful… but seriously, THAT JACKET IS FABULOUS.

WARNING: If you have not seen Chapter 1 of Volume 7 yet, do not read this! It is rife with spoilers!
INTRO/OVERALL THOUGHTS:
While not the best premiere RWBY has had thus far, “The Greatest Kingdom” is a great setup for the issues within Mantle and plan...

INTRO:
Whatever your opinions on Volume 6, most of the fandom seems to be in agreement that the best part of it all lies within the first half - most notably, Chapters 4 through 6: the Brunswick Arc. Brunswick Farms. (Volume 6 Chapter 4)
Seemingly rooted in t...

[gen:LOCK ad]. “How so, Monica Rial? We still have no context!” [Footage stops, like VHS footage. Muffled.]Yeah, for a show that had as much star power and big money backing as it did, being produced by both Rooster Teeth Animation and Michael Jordan’s Outlier...

I've made some title cards for the sections of WNTARA. Lemme know what you guys think. There's also a vote for an alternate version of the Adam one, btw.

I'm currently working on title cards for the major sections of "We Need to Talk About RWBY... Again." I'm a bit torn between different versions of one I made for Adam and I need some input. What do you guys prefer?

INTRODUCTION:
Volume 1 was Innocence, Volume 2 was Maturity, Volume 3 was Fall, and Volume 5 was Choice. Volume 4’s core theme, in this strain of logic, is Grief. To deal with the pain of loss and trauma, whether that be in accepting reality and moving onward, or wallowing in the negativi...

THESIS: CREATOR, AUDIENCE, & CRITIC
Creating is hard. You have an idea. You shape and sculpt that idea. And then you show that idea to the world, gambling whether people absolutely adore your work, or take the work and shove it down your [censor] as they scream “[censor] you [censor...

Yep! I'm doing a retrospective on RWBY Volume 4 on its core theme of Grief. So for now, please enjoy my psycho notes. I am tired.
Character Short:

So I'm working on "We Need to Talk About RWBY... Again," and I had an idea.
One of my major points is that while the show is imperfect, it's still brought a lot of joy and happiness to so many people, and that outweighs any problems the show might suffer from, whether from good or ...

So as most of you have probably known, I've been planning on releasing a series of video essays detailing the controversies surrounding RWBY and Volume 6. However, I have decided to compress most of these issues into a single video. After this, I'll be broadening my content to video essays on med...

GASP. A POST. I know, shocking.
So I 've taken the week off from YouTube because my mind is screaming from the fandom, so to tide y'all over enjoy some tidbits for a new book idea I've had: working title is Crystal Heart (Or The Girl with a Crystal Heart).

- Though this and the previous episode have been relatively shorter than usual, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed them and felt the pacing was on-point. It seems Miles and Kerry have cut most of the filler from their scripts. A lot of the Volume 4 and especially Volume 5 chapters were only 17+ minute...

- Only 13 minutes. I can accept this honestly, given the last episode was 26 minutes, and this is really just an aftermath chapter.
