Lets Briefly Talk About: RWBY V9 Ep 9

Yo we really just focused on Jaune for the first half of the episode like Yang wasn’t the more important piece here. I really DO want to focus on the moment and fully enjoy it but—fucking hell it feels like whiplash with how the last one ended.

Like am i the only one who feels this way? I feel like we should have focused more on Yang so THESE moment could feel more impactful?

Look, the episode felt pretty rushed and that 15 min runtime is not doing it any favors.

From now on, whenever I see someone complaining about a character's actions when they are reacting realistically to trauma, I'm gonna use this.

I guess Yang and Blake don't kiss as they soon as they meet cause there is no way Yang is standing after Blake kisses her with 8 volumes worth of pining

Summary of RT post on RWBY

So V9 will have 10 episodes and they’ll air with no season break

It releases on Saturdays at 9:30AM CT

The finale will air on April 22nd

The writers already have an overview of V10 but it still hasn’t been greenlit

New episodes of RWBY will be available on CR immediately and will available on the RT site a year later (woah)

Pirating the show is still bad and will affect CRWBY and RWBY itself.

Guidelines regarding RWBY vids on youtube are still unclear

CR will become the defacto home of RWBY. No more RWBY eps on Youtube

We will have RWBY panels at RTX and more merch

They really need fan support to prove RWBY’S viability to continue and be profitable to their partners

Hi there! Hope you're doing awesome! Quick question,I know we're only 2 episodes into Volume 9,but what's your take on the whole Penny situation? I was crushed when she first died in Volume 3,then excited to see her again in 7,then crushed again to see her die just 1 volume later,as I'm sure everyone was. I'm hopeful about 9 though,it's looking good,but one of my friends has been turned off by all the gut punches with Penny & everything else,& I'm watching the series through with another friend & I don't want them to get turned off the same way. I'm hoping for something but not sure what at this point.

ayoooo i just remembered this ask now that i have some time kjdflsd kek

Anyway regarding Penny!! The best girl ever /lh

I totally understand if one of your friends got turned off with what had happened to her character so far--- because two years ago I was in the exact same position lol. In fact I came to watch the first ep of V9 without any expectations nor as much interest as I did with V8. I was mostly curious as to what direction they'd be pushing the story into.

And hooo boy was I surprised! And I mean, the kind of "Oh shit I'm caught off-guard by all that Nuts and Dolts moments because it's so in-the-face what thE HELL". Exactly like V8 lmao. I know I'm now speaking about the ship but jfdfdskfj I also do mean Penny content. I caught up with RWBY V6 and V7 during the 2020 / V7 hiatus, and when the Penny content was suddenly given the spotlight, that gut-punched me too.

And yeah that's exactly what I'm seeing with V9. Two years of grieving not really having much canon material to speculate about Penny's direction as a character and the premiere of V9 gave me new hopes actually! From a better perspective, I'm a little more positive that the theories / suspicions that had been floating around the Nuts and Dolts / Penny fandom (since V8) are in the right direction. I'll be bold now when I say it, now that I have moved past the pains of V8 lol: Nuts and Dolts is a living ship, and I have 95% confidence when I say it's actually a canon pair now. The first two episodes especially emphasized this, and I trust CRWBY knows what they're doing with the implications of it. And because they're less likely to bury gays, aside from an entire thesis (no kidding lol) from the Nuts and Dolts nation on why Penny would come back, looking at what the show might be bringing (hopepunk, wlw, LGBTQIA+ reps) gives me a positive view of Penny's general direction as a character.

One of my friends / mutuals said it aptly when they mentioned that RWBY doesn't benefit much from being watched while airing, because as a fan of the show who painstakingly waits between hiatuses it might sometimes feel underwhelming when you've been expecting something big for so long. I've been here since 2013, but it gets better when you rewatch volumes at once especially before a new season premiere! If one gets the hints given by CRWBY right, there is a pay-off there (I had my moment here with Pietro in V8). So I guess technically that means it's better off changing one's mindset that whatever they do with characters / the story usually has a reason forward, but then it would take a while to really get there.
