Can we all agree that Roman is one of the main reasons Volumes 1-3 have so much rewatchability? The fight scenes were great, and Roman's fights were some of the best. When it comes to dialogue, he is the unrivalled king, especially in his final speech. And to remain the best villain even after being dead for two and a half volumes is a legacy to behold.
Im gonna be honest this was the very first RWBY video I watched. I was completely blinded. When I reacted to this, I thought Torchwick was the good guy (Being the people he was fighting looked like enemies, Blake, The robots, and him being defeated a little bit in the video) But then I grew concern seeing him laugh like that and shoot fire with the others. So now I watched the RWBY series, and I completely understand everything! o:
Morgan Pinkston um Roman did a lot of things but I personally blame Cinder, she's the one who planned it all. to be fair Roman is responsible for the most deaths in the series and maybe I shouldn't like him but I don't see how he had really anything to do with ruining Arkos. Even without Roman I think what happened would still have happened.
Here's a plot twist for ya, the one that ruined Arkos, was Jaune!!!! He had one job, if he had kept watch like Ozpin told him, sure Pyrrah might have ended up different but she wouldn't be dust.
I was honestly pretty disappointed when Roman died. He never did anything to make you dislike him, and he was an overall coll character. Kinde of like in warriors how Firestar (spoilers) was killed by a tree, Roman was killed by a Giant bird, kinda lame in my opinion.
I agree and disagree. Roman did plenty of things to make you dislike him such as being discriminatory towards the fanus and just beating the shit out of Ruby with Neo. But I was also disappointed with his death cause it was kind of cheap, and even though he was the first villain no one beat him except Blake and that was arguably part of Cinder's plan.
+Timothy Davis That and the fact that he killed the most people on the show, with a sizable number of civilian and military personnel under his belt. But still, even that didn't make me want him to die, I think he's one of the best characters in the show and still has a ton of potential.
Nah, I think the kills he has under his belt is one of things that make him a good character, also he discrimination towards faunas DID kind of make you dislike him, I forgot about it pretty quick. And him beating up Ruby did make sense and didn't make me dislike him, it's just something the he would do, as the bad guy. Whisker!!! (=^_^=)
+Frozen Shadow Oh trust me, I'm not argueing. Roman is my favorite character in the show. I'm still not accepting that he's dead, he has so much potential left.
Roman was the real leader and great criminal with class it was really entertaining to watch him even not doing anything his dialogs are amazing (Cinder just a villian that have powers not saying that she is bad she is just not that good like Roman) it was very impressive fight without sembelance vs Sun and Blake, sometimes thinking if RWBY didn't kill him would he turn a bad written character? Is it ok that he is died with good villian character? Idk I just love to watch him and this song is perfect kudos here👌🏻❤️❤️
I loved roman. he is my second favourite villain in rwby. 1st being hazel. they are both more "human" than the rest with proper motives. survival and revenge.
Hazel more human? He joined forces with someone that wants to conquer the world because her sister died by the hands of grim. And SALEM makes them. What the f is even that? Hazel's motivations are just ridiculous. He's just like real terrorists that claim that "Americans are infidels and all of them deserve to die" while he tries to kill students himself. And Watts is another idiot with idiotic motives. He wasn't chosen by Ironwood so the baby cries and goes to team Salem to destroy the world. The only villains that make sense are Tyrian (cause he's a serial killer and wants everyone to die), Roman and Neo (who do crime to survive)
Considering that Roman, like Jaune, still hasn't found his semblence, he is a _really_ good fighter, able to hold his own against both Blake and Sun by himself... but what do you think his semblence would have been?
Roman is just so lovable because he's the classical, stylish, charismatic bad guy. He has no special powers, no semblance or other stuff, and guess what, he doesn't even need it!
i'm pretty sure he'll be back... why else would they make him "die" in such a cheap way? i mean, he's a tough nut to crack, so since he hasn't been bitten in half but swallowed in one piece, i'm sure he'll find i way to get out of there
I think it was both to show how much the stakes have grown since vol. 1, and also to show how cruel Cinder is; Roman was always expendable to her. He was just a dashing gangster who got caught up in stuff way over his head, and in the end his fortune and fantastic good looks just weren't enough to save him.
if Roman absolutely had to die, they should have at least made it a cooler death. not by some piece of shit that was defeted 2 seconds after it killed Roman. that just makes me so angry.
Alex96 ooooh how fitting for Roman! :D also I kinda like electro swing myself too. I thought it might be that but I wasn't sure, thanks for telling me.
If guys ever dressed like that or at least took pride in the style of their appearance and dressed in their own artistic or unique look, instead of cookie cutter hipster boringness, girls would spend less time fan-girling til their noses bleed over anime and guys would their choice of giggily, drooling love slaves. lmao 'Course, unlike Roman, being the hero/treating women well would be a plus too. LOL
What do you mean? Are you saying beating a 15 year old girl within an inch of her life isn't the right way to treat women? Damn it Roman! You've been doing it wrong all along!
love the saxophone, it just feels like it pairs with the classiness of Roman.
Phade Gwinevere Thames yes, ikr

Roman was really entertaining everytime he was on screen ngl
Too bad he was canceled for being racist to the Faunus!
@@IsaiahRichards692he wasn’t racist, he just did what we here in latam call “not pulling punches”
The more I get into RWBY, the more I love Roman Torchwick.
It sucks that he's dead. 😣😭😭😭
Two and a half volumes since his death and he's still best villain.
Now that's a legacy.
Dimension Defender you ain’t kidding I can’t think of a better criminal duo than ice cream cone and the classy thief
I still believe that he is alive and will show himself in volume 8
Dominykas Seibutis I hope he does
@@dimensiondefender6785 he'll never be dead without a body
#relightthetorch
This captures the character perfectly. Roman will be missed, he was a great character
Im gonna be honest
this was the very first RWBY video I watched.
I was completely blinded.

He would make a good hero even he had just chosen a better side
Derek Halder Yea ;3;
its a good general rule if the guy is fighting a bunch of nicely designed characters hes in the wrong
geoffrey rodgers It looked like one of "Those" shows where it was like a Steampunk time, but I stood corrected :T
Dr. Monty The Duck He is very fab.
Roman and Neo are probably the 2 of the most original and badass villains I've ever seen.
i want a roman torchwick spin off. be so awesome ^_^
true
I'm sad
this must be done!
Roman Torchwick is best villain
He really is.
I'll admit, extravagant and fabulous villains are my kryptonite. This dude's basically catnip to me, so fabulous.
I can't hear this trumpet and not imagine flynt cole playing it in the background XD Plus I love the saxaphone which also gives me that jazz vibe.
Well I didn't want you dead Roman! You know what I want? You can Stop being dead.
Yeah I made a crossover reference lol
Good vid btw. I miss Roman :(
Morgan Pinkston couldn't have said it better myself :)
I miss roman to
rwby rose yay more Torchwick fans :) we all miss him :'(
Morgan Pinkston um Roman did a lot of things but I personally blame Cinder, she's the one who planned it all. to be fair Roman is responsible for the most deaths in the series and maybe I shouldn't like him but I don't see how he had really anything to do with ruining Arkos.

Seeing NEO on the new engine for volume 7 makes me wanna see torchwick on the new engine
Well she can transform into Roman but the writer don't really care about that it seems :/

She really wants me dead.
I liked the song it was cool
rip torchwick. i'll miss your comedic banter

@@Rustcat666 hazels backstory is terrible and doesn't make any sense but at the very least he actually has a motive unlike any other character
He still better not be gone. I can wait for a volume or two, but he needs to be back.
Volume 6 comes in five days. Let's hope.
#RelightTheTorch
Yeah boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
So...yeah...that didn't happen.
@@dimensiondefender6785 maybe volume 8
Ok you know what I like the best about this vid? The URL ends in FUnk
As it should.
fucking love torchwick
He has so much swag like omg he makes me blush! He's so classy even in his defeats!
The song style goes with him so well.
rest in peace, oh beloved torchwick. May a flock of winged jack-o-lanterns guide you to your rest.
why did this song go so well with him?!
"Cause aside from Neo, every woman in the show wants him dead XD
Considering that Roman, like Jaune, still hasn't found his semblence, he is a _really_ good fighter, able to hold his own against both Blake and Sun by himself... but what do you think his semblence would have been?
Perhaps smoke. It really would go well, with him.
He would beat they asses
God I miss Roman
boy, am I gonna enjoy drawing these characters.
Roman is just so lovable because he's the classical, stylish, charismatic bad guy. He has no special powers, no semblance or other stuff, and guess what, he doesn't even need it!
This basically sums up what I think of Roman
I found it after three years of looking
Never have seen it but damn I did NOT expect him to die like........THAT
I keep finding myself looking at Roman Torchwick whenever he pops up on screen. I think I have a crush O.O
Same here
*fighting animation 👌🤙🤙🤙🤘*
thank you for this
this is my favorite song in the universe!!!!!! :3
I miss Roman :(
it fits so well with rwby
Favorite character. I wish he had a better send off.
Smooth.
This is damn good!
omg o.o
i'm pretty sure he'll be back... why else would they make him "die" in such a cheap way?
i mean, he's a tough nut to crack, so since he hasn't been bitten in half but swallowed in one piece, i'm sure he'll find i way to get out of there
Noah Beier Well I mean they killed Ozpin offscreen so at this point I'm sure he's gone for good.
Lucas VerBeek you got a point there >.>
Lucas VerBeek but he is coming back..just not in his own body
Lucas VerBeek Not to mention Roman not only got swallowed whole, but the bird pretty much blew up with the ship.
I think it was both to show how much the stakes have grown since vol. 1, and also to show how cruel Cinder is; Roman was always expendable to her. He was just a dashing gangster who got caught up in stuff way over his head, and in the end his fortune and fantastic good looks just weren't enough to save him.
The moment when Roman gets eaten by a Nevermore still literally has me shocked i mean he never expected to see it coming we didn't either.
love the way that ended. beautiful
I miss Roman
Me too. Me too.
end so cool
Amazing vid.
ALSO, NEO X TORCHWICK SHIPPERS WHERE U AT!?
It was confirmed that Roman and Neo have a father daughter relationship...
HERE!!!!!!!!
+Random Link Fangirl WHEN? LINK ME TO IT! WHERE? WHAT? HOW HAVE I NOT FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS? HELLO? WHAT? LINK ME TO THE CONFIRMATION
blake wanted him dead more than anyone else
if Roman absolutely had to die, they should have at least made it a cooler death. not by some piece of shit that was defeted 2 seconds after it killed Roman. that just makes me so angry.
Ugh! You took the words right outta my mouth!
eres jenial
:3
yassz
Прикольно!
Что это??? Какая прелесть=3
Also what genre of music is this considered? Just curious.
This is kina mix of electro swing and jazz :)
Alex96 ooooh how fitting for Roman! :D also I kinda like electro swing myself too. I thought it might be that but I wasn't sure, thanks for telling me.
Electro Swing
Happy New year
This is all me on Friday
SHE WOT ME DAB DBA BDAB DAB DAB DAB LOVE IT! XD
but really who wanted roman dead? all'em
Neo didn't!
Sean Kenny good point
roman may still be alive(hope is still a thing also roman fav character) hopppppe
beside Ruby and crow he is
He is sadly confirmed dead now. But hey, we've still got his hat.

Jayfeather767 15 years of age is technically not a woman
This one is Amazing but tbh i like the cat version better^ - ^
Who else think that this should be an anime ;^;
This IS an anime you dumbo! It's called RWBY
I not sure he died... the grimm eat him and inside the grimm he survived the ship crashed
he's not dead
to all roman x ruby fans just remember that roman's 20 something and ruby's only 13... that's just WRONG
Ruby is 17 now, while the rest of the group are 18
ok how is she 17 one semester and 6 months does not make 4 years and the others are 2 years older then ruby?
Never mind wiki said ruby's 15 in vol (1-3) and 16 in vol (4) we're both wrong
Ruby's 17!
FBI OPEN UP
Lol when your "Drunk"
