RWBY

[Strange_One]

Beamu-tan went kyun~

It should be illegal to be that hot while underage. Fuck.

Happens here and there in this world =|

[RadiantBeam]

Huh. And here I thought Weiss/Jaune would never get any shippers, but it seems to be getting a bit more popular recently.

[Kuradora]

Damn, Jaune looks ripped under that shirt.

Meh.

[Strange_One]

mm.... delicious...

punipuni~

[StarCross231]

I see your Fan art and raise you mine.

[DezoPenguin]

It appears that Junior has officially learned to call her "Sir."

punipuni~

Weiss: "What are these things, again? I'm not familiar with them."

[StarCross231]

I honestly hope that they do not accidentally upload a previous episode of RWBY for sponsors early access like they did for a few others.

[Strange_One]

Hold yourselves back ladies

[RadiantBeam]

Where do you find these wonderful images, Hen, I must know.

[DezoPenguin]

Spoilers for another fifty-five minutes or so.

Ep. 12...wow, did not see that coming!

Explains a lot about Jaune's relative lack of ability. Confirmed, now, that he comes from a family of heroes (three generations!), but no, he didn't get in on heritage, but forged his transcript! This explains Glynda's remark at the beginning of Episode 7, too...

Of course, now he's Cardin's dog over it until he mans up. Ten to one Ozpin knew it all along.

As for his interactions with Pyrrha...well, honestly, Cardin overhearing him seems kind of like karma for me, because he's a frickin' idiot. Not just because of the "I must face my problems alone" crap, but because combat training is kind of something that you can't really improve on your own. I mean, it's not like she was offering to do his fighting for him. Mind you, if he wasn't sleeping in class all the time...yeah.

(Also, Pyrrha confirmed for awesome in the leg-breaking area. JNPR girls do not mess around.)

Third teacher plus the headmaster confirmed! I guess Oobeck doesn't have Ozpin's tolerance for caffeine.

If Blake isn't at least part Faunus, Monty's intentionally trolling the hell out of us. Talking about night vision, then zooming in on her animal-like amber eyes? Yeah.

[Servant Shiki]

Gah, so tempted to see that spoiler. Normally it wouldn't bother me, but for a 4-6 minute skit, I'll just wait.

[Arashi_Leonhart]

Whatever is in that dude's coffee, I think I need some.

[RadiantBeam]

Well, that episode went and got dark real fast.

And that's about all I can manage right now. I'll post something more detailed once I get myself back under control. This episode was really emotional for me.

[Laith]

Professor "I-am-barely-animated" Oobleck seems kind of fun.

And yeah, Jaune is being an idiot, what's new. I mean understandable what with self-esteem and self-confidence issues, being the worse one of the whole team, having all the pressure of family heritage and everything. Still, a bit idiotic.

[StarCross231]

Well I guess we know now why Juane is lacking in skill also every time Cardin is in the scene and draws breath to talk i want to kill him painfully.

[Servant Shiki]

Jaune needs a slap to the face and realise that he needs JNPR's help. I don't think they'd mind. Cardin also needs to have an accident.

Also, Now I'm sure that RWBY's main character is coffee.

[Moczo]

Poor Jaune. He's a well-meaning kid, but he doesn't seem to gather that his problem is that everyone else spent their highschool years training to fight to the death, and he didn't. Or rather, he's not willing to admit it, because he's ashamed of not living up to his family and doesn't understand that his family trained to get to be heroes and he needs to do the same. But then, he apparently has had nothing but idiots as teachers so far if nobody ever spotted his aura, which is apparently huge enough a student could spot and unlock it in five minutes.

Also, CARDIN CAN GO DIE IN A FIRE.

[YeOfLittleFaith]

Well, that.... explains a lot.

Cardin's reached a new level of low. And while Jaune wasn't exactly being the reasonable or correct of people in this episode or in doing what he admitted he did...
Listening to his feelings I can't exactly say I can condemn him for it. Granted, he was much meaner than he needed to be to Pyrrha when she was only trying to help him, and it's pretty clear she felt hurt. Jaune's letting his pride and his pain cloud his words, and he's taking the complete wrong attitude about letting others help him in improving himself. And if he doesn't take a few good moments to himself to think about his feelings, what he really wants to do, how to do it, and the people who want him to succeed and their feelings, things aren't going to change for him.

The episode wasn't the longest, but it spoke volumes.

And also gave us more deliciously interesting background information. What did happen to White Fang? Or did Professor Oobeck just mean that they're an aggressive group?
Speaking of the professor, holy hell, whatever is that coffee he drinks, I WANT SOME.

EDIT: Models were broken all over this episode, but the voice acting hit right where it needed to in the emotional department. Great performances, particularly on the rooftop scene.

Also, Pyrrha was all around awesome this episode. Yes, please break his legs, Pyrrha.
She and Blake did a good number on Cardin there during class. Hehehe.

Hmmm.... I still have a feeling Velvet's involvement in this is going to be one of the triggers to Jaune snapping out of his sorry state of right now, somehow.

[RadiantBeam]

So I think, on a lighter note, this episode basically confirmed that most, if not all, of the professors and staff at Beacon run on coffee. I'm now waiting for the inevitable moment we see Port and Glynda sipping some when they think no one is watching.

[StarCross231]

For some reason i keep imagining a scene with all the staff at Beacon participating in a coffee drinking contest throughout the school year and whoever wins gets something that he/she bet on.
