Aix Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Uh, if they're games they're no longer anime. An eastern game is not an anime game, at least I wouldn't call it that as it's misleading. You've seen 15 minutes of it plus fighting scenes. You can't realistically speak of its tropes yet.The Principal is your typical Urahara-type. The glasses woman is your stern manager/assistant (I forget her name, but the Captain with the pink kimono's Lieutenant)-type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugendramon Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 The Principal is your typical Urahara-type. The glasses woman is your stern manager/assistant (I forget her name, but the Captain with the pink kimono's Lieutenant)-type. Urahara type? I haven't seen him go around throwing confetti or making lame jokes, or any of that extremely light-hearted sheet. Moreover he hasn't shown the utterly dark side that would make that trope applicable. Nanao? That would make sense if secretaries having glasses and being stern was an anime trope. But it's general I'm afraid, and saying "but Bleach has it" doesn't really mean it's exclusive or that she's her own trope. Like I said, we're not going anywhere, our opinions are clearly opposite and that won't change. Can we stop yet? I mean nothing is fun like arguing on the internet about 15 minutes of ambiguous animation but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enrise Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Holy crap the shortness of Episode 2 was so dildos. I was expecting like, a 15 minute approximation episode. Not f*cking 6 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I think it was supposed to be like how some cartoons will debut with a one-hour feature, while the rest will be a half hour. We'll have to see how long the next episode is, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now think of yourself waiting for a whole week for a whopping 5 minutes of animation! However it's worth mentioning that if an introduction episode dragged on it would get a bit awkward. Hopefully we'll see longer in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However it's worth mentioning that if an introduction episode dragged on it would get a bit awkward. Hopefully we'll see longer in the future. I wasn't really hyped for it. I mean it gives me something to watch, but I'm not all crazy for it, anticipating it's release and devoting most of my time waiting for it to come already. I mean I didn't watch it right when it came out, I actually was out car shopping, and noticed it happened to be released by the time I got back home. So, I naturally watched it. The result of it being 5 minutes was disappointing. Good little clip nonetheless, but still could have been longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
вєgσттєη ιηѕαηιту Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 So I'm a little late to the party! But I find it adorable that Ruby named her weapon. John... I don't like him very much.Blake and Weiss are exactly what I expected. Disappointed in episode length / lack of any plot development this episode.And yeah Ruby is adorable.

Fusion X. Denver Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Meh, I don't like that Weiss is a mean, rich girl.Blake is what I expected and I'm betting on warming up to her very well as time goes on. I actually really enjoyed Ruby and John's interaction, short as it was. John's awkward, but endearing, and Ruby is being more like Ruby, which is a big plus. And I personally like most of the dialogue this show's been using so far, hope the show keeps matching their standards. I'm not that upset about 6 minute episodes. I'm honestly just glad there's a set release schedule compared to other things on the Internet I wait for indefinitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thar Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Meh, I don't like that Weiss is a mean, rich girl. I don't mind it. Although I imagined her to be a shy but vibrant and talented lady, it adds spice to her character. We still can't justify it until we see her in battle, though. I actually really enjoyed Ruby and John's interaction, short as it was. John's awkward, but endearing, and Ruby is being more like Ruby, which is a big plus. And I personally like most of the dialogue this show's been using so far, hope the show keeps matching their standards. Jaune is my kind of character. Kinda shy but very talkative however tripping on himself simultaneously. Also, was anyone else sorta thrown off by Ruby saying she invented her weapon, even though she was told she learned to master "the most dangerous weapon" as if it were mythical or something?

She said she built it not invented. It's more, the weapon type itself already existed, and she just built a customized form of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Sage Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Huh. A character based off Jeanne d'Arc. Or the name at least. And medieval weapons. I like his shield, it looks like a sail.Some explanation to Blake's trailer seemingly… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I actually already read about the length of the episodes after I watched the first one so in addition to liking the fact that it wasn't regular length, at least I was prepared there was going to be shorter episodes. That, and I've already watched quite a few short length stuff so I'm pretty used to it. I actually really enjoyed Ruby and John's interaction, short as it was.

The shorter length is actually what I expected from Roosterteeth, seeing as how Red vs. Blue episodes are just as short. Regardless, the first episode was the debut, which are usually always longer than the rest. Also, I'm hoping for an anti-hero to be introduced in time. You can't have an anime without an anti-hero.

Shradow Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Jaune reminds me of the old style of Hero class from Fire Emblem, what with his outfit and using his shield as a sheath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makο Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 So, let's sum it up real quick. It was super short, which was unexpected, actually. With the way everything's going, it seems to me like they had the typical 24 minute anime in mind, but had to cut it down into smaller segments. I like Jaune. : D Blake is more... quiet than I expected. Weiss is way more bratty than I expected as well. ormagerd chibi ruby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 To be fair, if I had suitcases filled with stuff that exploded if you sneezed at it, I'd be pretty pissed if you just knocked them around. Granted, I wouldn't have proceeded to shake it in someone's face, but I don't think she let the Dust escape on purpose, and you'd think it wouldn't be able to just float out of the sealed bottles.

Pichu Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Yang's exit was hilarious. But Weiss moved down my list of favorite characters pretty fast. Instead of an elegant, classy girl, we get a brat. So that's a disappointment. But she may not want to act that way, because in her song she sings in the White Trailer, she's literally singing about being a different person. You mean Adam?Yes, I'm looking forward to see how he gets kicked in. Ether Adam is the anti-hero, or Team JAUN, the parallel to Team RWBY. Team JAUN is the four kids you see in the opening with Jaune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
