Volume 9 spoilers!
Contains RWDE content.
Lots of rambling.
Might be incoherent at times.
Don't like? Don't read.
Okay. Wow.
Binged all of V9 up until now, so here's some thoughts and rambles about it:
Weiss is a mood, but her "comedic" anime-style moments are... Annoying. And definitely out of character. I find it incredibly irritating that she refuses to believe they are in a fairytale even though it's pretty fucking obvious.
Ruby helps out a cute little mouse. She states that she wishes the mouse could help her too, then freaks out when the mouse responds. After some discussion, Ruby describes her friends in hopes that the mouse saw them (specifically stating Blake has cat ears and thus is a faunus, while the others are human). She decides to call the mouse Little, and thus they become her guide.
Sort of. Little constantly falls asleep.
Meanwhile, Weiss saying that they're looking for Gambol Shroud is a nice touch, but would be confusing if one didn't already know that was the name of her weapon. I like that the weapons have names, instead of it being just Ruby calling her weapon Crescent Rose.
Blake gets exhausted pulling a vine for maybe 5 seconds. Weiss gets tired after slashing two vines with her sword, only for them to grow back.
Ruby and Little find the two tangled in vines ( a trap Blake set off by trying to grab her weapon while Weiss cheers her on in the background). The mice explain they do not like cats, which Blake just... Shrugs off, saying she understands.
They encounter the Jabberwalker! But just before they move in to attack, Yang yells at it to get it's attention back on her. The Jabberwalker retreats. I love how weird it's movements look, but I have no idea what the hell it said.
Yang saying "Dammit. You weren't supposed to be here" to Ruby is nice. Ruby lying about why they're down there too is not. They fell in, they did not go after her and jump in. Also I honestly forgot they were sisters.
Blake knocking Yang over to hug her was cute. The missing arm jokes were not.
Oh my god, the raccoon's name is Jinxy. Why not just call him Jinx or something equally weird?
The odd "prices": a hug, something about love, and enough hope to fill a jar, were interesting, I'll say.
And the last one is particularly shocking: the usually hopeful, optimistic Ruby does not have enough hope to fill a jar.
And cool, Yang decides it's time for violence, despite Blake pleading that they don't fuck up like Alyx did in the story. The objects all turn back into what they actually are, and chaos ensues. Also, I don't remember Penny's swords being completely green.
Blake says they're acting just like Alyx, who started a war due to not knowing the customs of the citizens, and cheated in a game.
Also, what really irks me is that ALL FOUR know THE SAME STORY. They ALL heard it as children. Despite their incredibly different backgrounds and all. Why not have Blake recall a different version in particular? Maybe have one not know it at all? It seems incredibly odd to me that Weiss would know the same story as Blake, who knows the same story as Ruby / Yang.
I love the Curious Cat. His voice and design are pleasing to me. I like his "is it, or is it not" and / or literal responses, like "what do you go by?" / "I do not 'go by'; I leave that to the days and years". Also, the occasional cat-like behavior.
Speaking of, why the fuck is Blake so chill about being referred to as a cat? Ruby singles her out when talking about her friends, stating she's a faunus while the others are humans. What's worse, Blake specifically goes "from one cat to another" when talking to the Curious Cat. It just... Eugh. It's bad.
The Red Prince. Oh my god, he is so annoying. I know that's the point, but wow. The soldiers aren't much better, reminding me of Cordovan's soldiers.
The soldiers try to claim all the credit for the birthday gift, but freak out when the Red Prince complains that it's GREEN. One even says they didn't know it was green, even though they saw it before.
Speaking of the sword. I will admit, Ruby's speech about the sword made me tear up. Unfortunately, it rings hollow after the Atlas arc disaster.
(Later, Ruby giving the teapot lady her pin is even worse. It absolutely feel like a last ditch effort. "It contains a mother's promise" like hell it does! She sounds like Jinxy trying to sell his fake items: making it sound more special and valuable than it actually is.)
Ruby tries to cheer up the Red Prince by offering to play his game. When she asks how to play, everyone laughs. Then, the three rules are stated: pawns can move forward a certain number of spaces. one pawn moves each turn (a rule later discarded), and in order to take a square, one must dispose of whoever is occupying that space.
Ruby asks what that means, and finds out that it's literal. But the injured pawns are whisked away from the board, so no real harm is done. The Red Prince ever so kindly lets Ruby start. Her pawns are visibly far weaker, and as uncertain as Ruby herself.
Ruby notes she's missing a few pieces. Then, boom! Her friends are thrown in! They shrink to about 6 inches, and land on the board. Of course, they wreck house against the red pawns. But everything goes to shit when the Red Prince suddenly remembers Ruby is a human. Now both red and white pawns turn against her friends.
I admittedly liked this episode the most.
It's kind of cute that Ruby carries her tiny team mates in her cloak. Little is cute, but useless in all honesty.
Herb is interesting too. I love the design and voice. But the hallucination part was...
They encounter their old selves, who offer them to go back, to change who they are.
Weiss: what if you completely changed who you are? started over, with no baggage?
Blake: why be the bridge between humans and faunus? you could be a human, or a cat.
Yang: what if you could get your arm back? don't you want to be whole again?
The three each refuse, Yang stating her loss has made her stronger, made her who she is now. She states: If I'm missing something, it's not because I lost it, but because I haven't found it yet." Which would be amazing if her recovery arc wasn't cut short because the writers stated it was boring. Also it doesn't really make sense in terms of her arm, which was what was offered: to be whole again.
Blake states that such a life wouldn't be simplicity, it would be betrayal. She continues: "my friends, my family, my people, my culture... they belong to me as much as I belong to them."
...Which is even worse because her character took a hard hit when the WF arc was dropped. What culture? Blake doesn't seem to have one. Again, it doesn't hit as hard as it could have.
Weiss replies, in true Weiss style: "I don't know who you think you are, but let me tell you who I am. I am a citizen of a fallen kingdom, an heiress to nothing. I am the great granddaughter of a hero, and the child of a villain. I will not be defined by my name; I will be the one to define it."
Probably my favorite. But again. Her arc was cut short by her just... Throwing her abusive father in jail. He was killed, but she doesn't even know that. The "great granddaughter of a hero", but said great grandfather was the one who started the SDC. Her father wasn't really a villain, just an asshole who was abusive.
She refused to be defined by her name, giving up everything... Until it was convenient for her, ie when they needed to hide, she literally bullied her way BACK into the Schnee manor.
Then, there's Ruby.
Her former self is overly cheerful, even as she tells Ruby: "your friends need you. the whole world needs you to keep fighting forever and ever, against an unkillable enemy that took your mother. ... Mom was the best. But even she failed. That doesn't seem fair. None of this seems fair!"
Ruby forced her way into this. She chased after Cinder during the Beacon dance. She went to Mountain Glenn on a mission far too advanced for her team (Ozpin bent the rules to allow this). She forced herself to be part of this.
I do love how past!Ruby says "none of this seems fair" as well as mentioning how Ruby originally wanted to be like the huntresses in the stories. How life wasn't like a fairytale but that was why Ruby needed to keep fighting. Going as far as saying "You can be whoever you want! You don't even have to be Ruby Rose!
So... What do you want to be?"
Ruby is unable to defend against her past self, and crumbles. The Curious Cat has to intervene, and tells Herb (or Past!Ruby?) to get away from her.
The Curious Cat says to him "You help others find their way, but you have lost your own" and gives him some of his heart? Then Herb is literally swallowed up by the ground. Holy fuck.
What the fuck is Ascension? It sounds worse than dying. I mean. You get swallowed up by the ground, then spit back out with no memories, just a "purpose".
Weiss says it's not possible, that everything must die eventually. Even though Ozma and Salem herself are literal proof against this. Yes, Ozma's host will die, but his soul will simply find a new host.
Wait... Why are they running?
No, seriously. The previous episode ended with Herb falling through the ground.
Okay, they need a bunch of stuff to make Grow-Gurt Parfait(?). Including... Nose hair from a leprechaun? Ew.
The group splits: WBY + Curious Cat gather the other ingredients, Ruby and Little get the nose hair.
Ruby has some sort of... Hallucination? Teleportation? To a blacksmith's workshop, where she finds Penny's sword (Red Prince voice: WHY IS IT GREEN). She sees Penny's reflection in it. Then, she sees what looks like a sort of scythe. Looking closer, she sees someone's reflection. Maybe Alyx?
Boom, she's back(?), and she has no nose hair of any sort. Thankfully, they soon find the Teapot Lady. Curious Cat knocks random crap over, just like a cat would.
The Grow-Gurt Parfait is made. The girls go to eat it. One handful makes them slightly taller.
Suddenly, a Jabberwalker appears! The parfait spills on the ground and the Jabberwalker eats some. Fuck.
Everyone panics!
WBY run over to the spilt parfait and eat what's left. Which is enough to return them to normal size.
Blake asks what's a Jabberwalker, despite seeing one earlier and knowing what it was. Apparently, if they get eaten by it, they will not Ascend.
So they do die, basically. Weiss was correct.
A jackalope - bunny creature appears to fend off the Jabberwalker. A knight is seen on its back. The Jabberwalker disappears... But in a similar way to Neo's semblance.
Meaning Neo is somehow behind it!
[Neo's semblance evolved. Now she can literally create clones. ]
Suddenly, several more crawl into view.
The knight tells them to run. So they run.
Weiss watches the place burn as people scream and run away. She tears up, telling Ruby she's tired of leaving places in ashes.
They keep running after the knight, who Blake recognizes as the Rusted Knight.
The creature is named Juniper (JNPR callback, which would have more impact if the team interacted with each other more). The knight takes off his helmet, revealing...
[groans]
Jaune. Except he's... Much, much older. Even though he fell last.
"Team RWBY. You finally made it."
I knew Jaune was gonna have some big huge arc instead of our main four. No wonder their journey felt rushed. Though, then I started wondering about how the heck Jaune turned into the Rusted Knight when none of RWBY literally became Alyx. Or any other character.
I really don't know how to feel about this volume. On one hand, it's interesting. On the other... It's annoying because, remember:
- Atlas is now Atlantis (gone)
- Almost the entire population of Atlas / Mantle is now in Vacuo. A kingdom already struggling.
- Salem is roughly halfway to her goal of getting all the relics and is on her way to Vacuo.
- Tyrian and Mercury are also heading there.
And since time likely flows differently in the Ever After, this feels like a huge distraction. A time skip so team RWBY don't have to actually do anything about the situation.
Literally what I hoped wouldn't happen.

[x] | so i transcribed the part of Casper's appearance on the Nothing Major podcast where he talks about players complaining about the balls bc i saw many articles using it as clickbait. im so sorry to the four hosts of Nothing Major i cannawt tell u apart so i've just listed them as HOST or H. if someone wants to listen at the link and correct me, feel free!! I'll edit the post !!
HOST: Is the court still really- it’s super fast in Turin, isn’t it? CASPER: Yeah. The two times I’ve played it was super fast, yeah. H: Yeah, I mean, it’s kinda like- like Shanghai fast- was Shanghai fast this year? C: Yeah H: Always C: Yeah. But the balls were fairly slow. I mean… You see players complain about the balls all the time, like it’s getting so tired of like, “uh I feel my elbow this, I feel my this, that, I don’t- I can’t produce power this, blah blah this, suits this player,” it’s like, come on, just play. H: We- we went over this last week actually. And really the complaints really start flowing in right around Shanghai. People start getting real crabby, real cranky, complaining about the balls, complaining about the conditions, this and that; but I totally agree with you, we’re kinda all in agreement there, like, you know, whatever, like, we- I don’t think any of us really cared too much about the balls. C: For me what’s funny, like, with some players, is that, you know, they come like five days in advance to practice- and I do it myself a lot of the time, it’s like, unless you’re going from tournament to tournament- and then, you know, they string like 28 racquets to get the right tension, cause, like, people are super into strings and like whatever, and then they come to like whatever 4th round and they start complaining about the balls, but its been the same balls for the last 9 days. Like what’s the point of bringing it up now? To the umpire? What is he gonna change? Nothing. H: Absolutely nothing C: Like “yeah, let me call Dunlop i’ll have them send over a can for you-” H: (laughs) C: “-if that’s the one you prefer,” like, what’s the point? I mean, just to make drama out of nothing. H: Yeah. We totally agree with you, dude. The tennis players, like, especially the guys in the top 1- top 50 espe- I mean, they just, they get- get psycho about the balls…
#casper ruud#caspoodle#also like this is a fun and lowkey podcast not a press conference or similar more “official” setting which i do think matters#like i do think he is a little annoyed by it but i also dont think he means hes like actually starting beef about it lol#sorry i am so late and this is out of the news cycle now i was really trying to figure out which host was speaking when#mouse man national media

In "If", imaginary friends become invisible to their kid if they stop thinking about them. I'm sure I'm not the first to notice this, but the movie is like a live-action combination of Toy Story and Rise of the Guardians. It works but all I could think about was Andy saying "I don't wanna play with you anymore" and Jack Frost doing a backflip when he realized Jamie could see him 😭
#I wanna be annoying about the logistics of reuniting every single forgotten imaginary friend with their owner#like...that's billions of people and Ryan Reynolds is one (1) clown in the middle of an existential crisis#anyway movie was fine#made me think of how a podcast host was complaining about no one making those mid budget family-centric movies anymore#this was very much that movie#albeit a little pricier thanks to all the CGI characters#who were pretty fun btw#loved Blossom's design even if her voice actress didn't quite do it for me#really liked the magician mouse from new jersey and the ice cube glass guy and the superhero dog dude#and big fan of the sunflower guy#he had tumblr sexyman potential#didn't like blue#his humor was predictable unfunny derivative and not even a little clever which was a shame#the whole script could've been a lot better but it's a family movie so I'll just say I watched it I didn't hate it and leave it at that#if movie#john krasinski#ryan reynolds

I actually realized i hate work. Won't be putting any effort into this anymore ♡
#sure whatever#it's funny because when i applied there i really really wanted this job#and it had nothing to do with that one person i got a little overly attached to#and when i started working there it was fine but i think really the only reason i liked it was because of that colleague#and now he's gone there's only annoying things left#also maybe i got too cuddled by him because he's always had my back until now#but i have to try to get things from the design team now and they just straight up ignore me lmao#like. my colleague asked me last week if i could ask them to edit some images which i did and they ignored me for 2 days#then HE sent them a follow up message and surprise surprise the images were there within 30 minutes#now again. he asked me to request some images and then built them into the journal#i request them. i hear nothing back. i send a follow up saying it's kinda important. i get nothing#oh well sorry man. guess you'll have to do that yourself after all (:#(i think it's really nice he's trying to give me so much more responsibility and all but if he's not there to back me up#it's literally not working because Everyone Is Ignoring Me :)))#also two weeks from now I'll be alone in our office because my other colleague who's in the same office as us#has announced she's gonna go share the office with someone else because she's gonna be alone otherwise#lol thanks#also some other shit someone posted in the group chat today which really pissed me off#AND the fact i got ignored AGAIN when i asked for work :) like bitches. i literally just watched netflix on my private laptop#while wiggling the mouse on my work laptop until i got off lmao#i won't go to the office tomorrow either#i was gonna go but i can't do shit there if i get ignored again#at least at home i can do whatever i want when they decide i should just get money for wasting my time ♡#i might actually just not work tomorrow#I'll probably log in just to see if there's any updates on the images situation but if not I'll fuck right off#fun times#(also maybe just maybe I'm generally a little negative these days. that may play into it. I'm sensing that sweet summertime blues ♡#((who cares if it's because of my father's death or because of my colleague's going away or because of general existential despair due to#university.... i'm just annoyed) )#void screams

All due respect for the modeler,, this is a bad model.
#gale chatter#LISTEN. LISTEN TO ME#i complain about this so much. it becomes very obvious on certain pokemon that the concept artists all work in 2d#with little to no consideration for how something is gonna work in a 3d space#i think that outside of doing some mikey mouse ears ass trick (which would have been annoying at best with a rotating cam)#that this model is. about as far as you can get when literally translating this design to a 3d space#that being said. it looks ao fucking bad dawg#it's mostly the hair. right? the weird effect of the hair getting thicker & thinner as it goes doesn't work#if the hair has to move in a 3d space unless you model it Real Specifically#& if you see it ingame the animation is borderline nauseating they undulate#which would be fine but no other pokemon moves like that & I don't think it was intentional#this design is VERY good but i don't like. this#pla is the best 3d pokemon in my opinion but when i see like this? or the emboar model? i miss 2d#take me back#just give me like. 2d artwork & animations. we don't have to go back to sprites#HEY. JUST SAYING. 2D SHIT IS EASIER TO STORE MAYBE IF WE GO BACK WE CAN HAVE A BIGGER DEX HUH?#i. want to tackle this model. but i am so scareds of blender

The thing about Tom and Jerry is that as a kid, you think Tom is a jerk for chasing down an innocent mouse who just wants food, but as an adult, you realize Jerry is the instigator of 90% of their fights, and half the time he has no reason to pull all of the stunts he does.
#I know it's weird to be thinking about the characterization of anthropomorphic animals that don't speak#But as a kid you love Jerry because he's just a cute lil mouse; as an adult you love him because he's a annoying little shit
