About RWBY:
The future-fantasy world of Remnant is filled with ravenous monsters, treacherous terrain, and more villains than you can shake a sniper-scythe at. Fortunately, Beacon Academy is training Huntsmen and Huntresses to battle the evils of the world, and Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang are ready for their first day of class.

Huh... took me FAR too long to put 2 and 2 together.
Weiss: An entire train car full of dust... stolen.
Blake: [Looks away whistling]
Hehehe
wow, i feel dumb

I feel so dumb

What weirds me slightly is that you never see that spider tank model again in the actual show. Seemed pretty effective.
I think it would be a bit too strong against any of mains or villains until volume 4. It's purpose was to be a jobber to show how strong Adam was and to show the viewers a taste of what he can do.
The soldiers and the spidertank were replaced very soon in the series by the mechs and the elysium knights.
Andre Klinge You can hope it makes a return in volume 5.
Atlesian. Not Elysium. And technically, these robots are Altesian Knights as well, they're just a lesser model.
Sebastien Emeric nope maybe volume 6?
Blake: "We need to get out of here."
Mecha: "Okay."
*blasts them outside*
*Triggered Blake and Adam noises*
OOF
XD
Now THAT's one very considerate robot
It understood Blake better than Adam
Shame that this is the only instance we get to see Adam fighting in Monty's animation.
And it looks awesome
I hope they beat Adam in their inevitable fight by taking advantage of his sheathing habits instead of some bs power upgrade, like how monty has blake cover his openings in this animation
itsacharcoalice That would be great but I doubt it. The new animators don't seem to have fight choreography down like Monty did.
I mean, obviously they'll never put anything out quite like Monty's stuff, but there's a lot of them and they'll only get better as time goes on. Already, there have been pretty significant improvements from Volume 4 to 5. Personally, I look forward to seeing them fine-tune their abilities as the series continues.

Blake: "Goodbye."
*Cuts away rail car*
*Adam jumps across*
Adam: "AND HELLO TO YOU!"
that's funny
Fck you made me laugh
XD I was thinking the same thing.
Edit: Meaning, I was wondering why he didn't just jump instead of standing there.
Oh my gosh,I'm crying from laughing
Blake: *Dang it Adam..*
Now that's a katana
Brandon Rodriguez eyyyyyy. is that RWBY chibi reference
This is filth FILTH!
Lulo Sunshine can have my book 📚 back
(It's actually a hochuko and not a Katana, but Blake's a Katana)
STOP THIS FILTHERY! So much filth I think Ruby died
XD
have u seen yang's mom's weapon lol
No wonder Blake wanted out of the relationship, Adam took all the spotlight in a trailer meant for her
nauuurrr 😭
It's even in red, Adam's color
Ong 🥹😭
No way, Blake was cool in this trailer
Quite a dissapointment how they entirely wasted his character, you can tell the writers dont understand edge lords, they dont even try to...
Y'know, sometimes I miss the old days where RWBY was a relatively small and niche fanbase, just really dedicated..
Classic case of "loosing what made them unique" just to get a bigger audience for the moneys.
Which is understandable, when it's done correctly
yeah :(
I feel like this is why most of the OG crew left. They were disgusted by what RT became and will likely always regret signing over.
shut up he's dead bro
same. the nostalgia i had watching the trailers made me even sadder for RWBY.
Rest in piece Monty, we all love you...
i watched it again because i want to appreciate his work, its as good as i remembered it, if not better
MontyOumForever :' )
Monty was amazing, and his talent, love, humanity will always be remembered.
what happen to him ?
Akira Yamikami Slipped into a coma and never woke up T^T May his soul rest in peace
Belladona is a plant that means "Beautiful Woman" in Italian.
It's also commonly called Deadly Nightshade.
I like her fiull name best: Blake Belladona. "Beautiful Woman in Black".
Cool fact!
Yup. The plant can be venomous if ingested. You know, playing on the fact that she is beauty _and_ the beast.
It's really fitting, really
I Love This! Her Story Makes Me Emotional. Especially The ending theme. It makes it much more intense. Her back story and her are so slept on. The way she runs away to handle her problems on her own and everything like it’s just really sad 😞☹️🥺
@@SirEriol Also plays into her partner Yang; both can fill the role of the beauty and the beast depending on what aspect of their characters you focus on. :D
Wow. The voice acting's improved a lot in the past 3 years.
Yeah thats like the first thing I noticed
+DeNile Reid Aso the animation
Zeedware The animation for the fight scenes have always been superb, though.
DeNile Reid not really, the in the Trailers was great. But the animation in volume 1 is decent. The choreography though, always amazing
+Zeedware Fighting wise, it's always looked great. But casual movement, even just walking, was stiff and awkward. They fixed it by Volume 3, everything is much more fluid.
Its funny how in the last four volumes Blake has never even come close to being animated as well as she is in this. Its so sad.
Admittedly that could be said for the other three vol as well.
They avoid her because her fighting isn't as bombastic or flashy as Yang or Weiss 😒😒😒
Honestly this trailer shows that her fighting can be just as good but they must really hate Blake fights now for some reason. Maybe it's partially because she fights with ribbons and moves super fast? That's hard to animate sure, but so is Yang and Weiss' semblance, especially now that they've switched to maya. And yet they like having them fight the most...
Honestly, Blake hasn't had a good fight since Volume 2 and they've neglected Ruby a fair amount as well. Ruby hasn't gotten a good fight scene since the Volume 4 trailer
@@mittenvonscrufflears7233 isn't maya like their third animation software now?
Monty Oum is just good at making Blake and no one knows how to animate her on the current volumes
I think it has to do with her semblance, the shadow clone thing.
While it’s not super unique, it allows for some pretty cool animation tricks I imagine. Parts where a not so fluid motion might not be as jarring because we understand what her ability is. I feel like that allows for some pretty cool tricks for animation. Monty, however was a master when it came to animation and I imagine a lot of the ideas in his mind were very unique to him and not easy to replicate m. Hard to see someone else envisioning how to use it the way he did. RIP.
I still watch this trailer from this day. Simply astounding.
true that, rwby's fight scenes are always amazing, especially the food fight.
I watch this trailer a lot because it's the only fight with Adam so far.
+Alexander Zehr yeah about Adam...
+Mike D no spoilers plz!!!!!
+Mike D FYI I am caught up on the series, I just meant like an "actual" fight.
I just saw the bird fly out of the tree when they stopped running out of the forest, and as an afterthought, I mumbled "That's SO Raven." And then I crumbled in my chair from the realization. Yes , both of them.
I like how after Adam destroys the first robot, they all just look at each other and go "Well, it would be unsporting to bring miniguns to a knife fight. Sword arms it is then."
Ikr ?
That was my same thought
The old fight style/choreography used to be so good that it actually makes them look weaker in the current volumes.
Yeah, nobody can replace what Monty was capable of doing. They're getting better at it as time goes by, which is heartening to see, but no one will ever have that same flair Monty brought to a fight scene.
@@ShakeyMac18 Rooster Teeth has no talented choreograph genius like Monty Oum. Ever since he died, the company animation was left in shambles on how to deal the 7 volumes that wasn't yet handled by Monty. Volume 3 was the last choreograph animation that the great writer and animator managed to showcased in the public. He knows that the studio want the animation to be better than the last time. He kinda has no problem with that beside just him wanna keep the choreography style fitted in the animation. He only given some drafts with the latest volumes. Without him on the latest schedules, the combat and fights becomes lesser and became cliches, dupes and pathetic to look at.
@@rogueascendant6611 truer words have never been said
I don't know why but Weiss is significantly weaker than Ruby.
Ruby can take out an army of Grimm all by herself in both trailers and in the story.
Weiss' aura gets one-shot by everything [unlike Ruby who has a surprisingly tanky aura that pretty much never breaks] and struggles with beowolves in her second trailer.
Loses every 1v1 if she can't get her summons up. And wins every 1v1 if she can, which is like two wins or something.
And it takes her like 10 seconds of praying to the sword to get her Gigas up.
But both are a lot stronger now in the 'Penny is winter maiden arc': Ruby can do instant silver eyes and Weiss summons way faster now. So I'm glad Weiss finally got a buff after losing so many fights.
True, this was my favorite trailer because of that. Best cat girl... period
That moment when you realize that (S3 Spoiler)
Cinder didn't want to piss this guy off untill she got at least half of the Fall Maiden's power.
Speaks volumes about how powerful Adam is.
I never actually noticed that, but that is so true. I really don't think Cinder would have won if she had fought Adam when they first met. She would have had her head caught off before she could even pull her bow and arrow out.
The guy could probably have taken on the entire Grimm invasion by himself and won.
Well, after she does get half the power he does turn into a bit of a wuss just giving in because a few few foot soldiers were beaten.
+anthony longoria I'm pretty sure Adam sensed Cinder had changed drastically since their original meeting.
Kent Hefele And? As far as we can tell Adam's semblance allows him to basically absorb and attack through his sword and return it, as shown in the Black Trailer. Making it much like Yangs, just less risky. Seeing as to how poorly she actually is in combat I kind of doubt Cinder would of had a real chance against him. You can argue that her beating Pyhrra who is seen as unstoppable as a feat proving this, but Pyhrra is in a major disadvantage against some one who uses no weapons or armor. Blake on the other hand blocked/absorbed a energy beam. That is quite a bit worst than fire.
Didn't Cinder get the rest of the Maidens powers before she fought Pyrrha??
Who else is watching this in 2018 to see the old fighting style?
Daniel-san Dufrene-kun it looked better actually
The closest Adam has ever gotten to being as badass as this is in his other newer trailer. And even that is a bit of a stretch. He didnt even do what i used to call his "signature sinister moonslice laugh" with the screen going dark and everything. I mean they got the red screen down that one time but thats just it
Yeah I'm here too because I miss it so much and it's hard to enjoy the new style
Hey to see so this influenced bbtag
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I miss the time when all we had was these trailers. There was so much mystery, so much to be explored with this universe, so much to speculate on. I miss the time when we knew nothing, the time when I was salivating for more of this series that I was so hype for.
Still enjoy what happened since.
@@victor2641 I sure didn’t lol
确实，我也同样很怀念过去到处像朋友们推荐这部动漫的时光
If there's one thing I wish could have been used more in Blake's fights through the series, it would be the whip feature of her Gambol Shroud. Moves like at 2:15 and 3:40 are just so pleasing to the eyes, and look damaging/viable. Later on, she only really uses the ribbon for mobility for herself or team-mates, or that one tripwire in the Vytal Festival fight, which is fine, but after seeing motions like that, I guess I'm a bit spoiled and want to see more.
Rule number one of Anime, NEVER RUN TO THE GUY WITH GLOWING HAIR!!!
The most annoying thing with life, people sometimes refer to females as, 'That Guy'.
What about Goku, or Yang for that matter?
More often then not it doesn't end well unless you want them to help you.
No.1 is every Main Charakter can stop the Time goddamn
+Troll Typ character
The weird thing is that in these Trailers EVERYONE except for Ruby has a VERY challenging opponent. And that follows the series in that Ruby still hasn't had a long long fight scene...
Id say V3E11 against Roman and Neo(where she only won by tricking Neo and with luck against Roman with the grimm eating him)
Kyle Marsh But the spiderbot is still a challenging opponent.
Ludvig SC Games they're saving up for the BIG one.
If you consider a Fall Maiden that could go at it with Ozpin a challenging opponent, Ruby did one-shot Cinder lol.
Its almost as though her /very/ challenging opponent(s) are the grim themselves, or rather, Salem.
Adam Taurus the guy who is so strong that he can turn a fully armored mech into sakura petals.
But is a complete son of a B*tch :c
And theeeeen he can’t get through a small mechanical arm with the same move
@@cbbartman1360 plot armour is the strongest armour than you have ever imagined.
That's not just his strength
It's his Moonslice Semblance
If his Aura was broken he wouldn't be able to do that at all
So wish I had his powers.
Can we all talk about how Adam could've easily stopped Blake from cutting the train? He was already at the edge of it. Blake gave a three second stare, said goodbye, grabbed her sword, stared a little more then slowly cut the train.
Adam was still able to compartmentalize his feelings back then. Once Blake sided with the enemy was when Adam lost it.
I think if Adam attempted to jump towards Blake or tried to stop the cut Blake would've skipped the goodbye and quickly cut the train off. Just my thought
@@yinghsi1207 But then he could just jump onto her car and they would just awkwardly stare at each other. Like if Blake used something to tie him to the other car in some way it would have worked.
I think it's also because he's torn between getting the dust and getting Blake, and choosing the dust instead
You know, pre-volume 3 Adam was chill and seemed kinda protective, albeit a little psychotic, then he went mega nuts.
Miles and Kerry's writing summed up in one sentence.
@@Cptsuccess pretty much
Honestly. What happened to the fight scenes? They used to be so well made, badass, creative, exciting to see, and they aren't the same. Don't get me wrong I still love Rwby and the Crwby but, I feel like they're starting to forget Monty's vision. I mean look at the red trailer and compare that to one of the new fight scenes Ruby has. It's not the same. They need to remember his vision and passion. No matter what though, Rwby will forever be in my heart. Thank you Monty
People don't have the same creativity as Monty, don't forget he excels in fight scenes not stories, and RWBY doesn't really have a solid story in the first place. But hey in V6 just have hope!
Monty's vision is what is missing: The animation is based on an animation director's choreography.
@@thatrainbowquickie8395 Monty vision form of anime writing. His american friends and workers haven't have that kind of passion towards an actual anime fights?
@@rogueascendant6611 It's a tricky style. Monty probably took huge amounts of inspiration from fighting games, and he had years of experience animating fight scenes just like this in Dead Fantasy and Red vs Blue. Also, the Black Trailer was done with Shane Newville, the other lead animator (There were two, Monty and Shane). But for some reason, he was sacked at the end of volume 3. (Monty's personal friend).
Honestly Volume 7 is the most polished with the tension and fight sequences, but that's just me.
They've completely forgotten how Blake's weapon is supposed to be used and how much stronger than Blake Adam should be.
shipping is stronger
@@petrspetsnaz630 +++
Blake got a lot stronger. Tends to happen, over six seasons.
@@BlinkingRapidly can't be much stronger when she dropped some of her more creative moves
@@BlinkingRapidly The problem is we never SAW her get stronger, and don't forget that just because we spent almost a decade growing, doesn't mean the characters have. I don't know if even two years on Remnant have passed in that time.
Not me visiting again in 2023 because I suddenly miss my favorite, unbutchered characters and how good they fought together... :((
I feel that. I miss being excited for RWBY fight scenes 😢😢
They all felt like their own little movie in themselves
RIP monty...
@user-mz1bi4xz6r Too true. This is gonna sound elitist, but I genuinely refuse to accept post Monty Rwby
@user-mz1bi4xz6r Proof?
0:46 Hey Qrow.
***** Not what I'm trying to get at here.
***** Yep. I've been looking for those random crows for several episodes. Strangely enough, I didn't see any in the White Trailer.
+Ryan Webster There isn't exactly any confirmation on the shapeshifting being his semblance. Its perfectly possible that is the cased, but it could also be something else entirely, especially since he and his sister both have a bird motif. Maybe they're some kind of special Faunus or something.
Ferhog Possibly. Despite that, I feel as though the crows and ravens in every scene are intentional.
+Ferhog This is Monty we're talking about. Those crows are 100% intentional. He had at least 10 seasons for the show somewhat outlined.
*RIP Adam's strength. 2013-2017*
F
It was non-existent.
Rest in peace Adams strength. *Black trailer - volume 3*
F to dis.
@@HappyPotat He was the strongest till miles.
Now that I think of it, Adam may be my favorite villain in RWBY. He wasn't born a villain, he was made one. He like many faunas suffered a great deal of racism and subjugation. Adam grew to believe that humanity will never accept faunas as equal to humans, so he plans to wipe out humanity so that the faunas race can start a new life and not live in fear. Unfortunately, he lets his vengeance get the best of him. He is like the Magneto of RWBY. So I hope the team behind RWBY expand on Adam's character in the future, maybe even have a redemption story; where in some situation he sacrifices his life to save Blake and her friends.
he kinda reminds me of handsome jack from borderlands in that way
In some odd way, Adam's like the Magneto of RWBY...only without the occasionally becoming a good guy thing, lol.
No one is born a villain, my friend. Always keep that in mind.
Well...maybe Luca Blight, lol.
I don't think any of the characters were born a villain, we don't really know the back stories of the villains yet but in the song sacrifice you can see that cinder used to be good but turned evil. once we learn more about the other characters we'll probably see the same thing going on
Rest in peace Adams strength. *Black trailer - volume 3*
He's still kinda strong in his character short but I guess you could say those fight scenes chronologically took place before the black trailer.
1:50 Here, we see the Wild Genji in his habitat, under heavy fire and just deflecting away. You know, it's really a wonder how none of the bullets are going astray and hitting u- BLEH!
xD
LOL!
But, some how he sounds like Raiden in MGS. And that sword is like the High Frequency Blade "Murusama"
yELLS
OMG THAT IS WHAT HE REMINDS ME OF
That music at the end haunts me.
+Tifa Lockhart me too
+Sayuha Toyone (Saku) It's part of the song.
+Haqim Hatsuharu (PotatoSaladThe3rd) what song?
+Revanthewicked Blake's Theme. The piano at the end of the video is part of Blake's Theme.
+Tifa Lockhart NO ITS BEAUTIFUL
You know what's funny? I marathoned this whole series in a day, so I never thought Adam would turn out to be a good guy. The only Adam I knew was the Volume 3 Adam, not the misunderstood character everyone speculated he would be.
Not so friendly now, is he?
Brandon Rog
For me, he never was.
+Connor Duquette For me, the story was slightly different. I first met Adam here at this trailer. I saw a potentially powerful ally in both Blake and him. Their fighting skills would make them near unstoppable, and I was looking forward to seeing Adam kick more villain butt in the future- until he disappeared. For the entirety of Volume 1-2, I was trying to find him. Granted, most of my energy was spent rooting for the newly formed Team RWBY, but occasionally, thoughts of Adam floated through my mind. I found him, alright: At the end of Volume 2's last episode, I saw him standing with Cinder's crew, and I knew all hope of Adam turning good was impossible. My suspicions were confirmed during the Battle of Beacon a few chapters later (and right before a severe heartbreak), when I met the Adam you did first. And to this very day, I despise him.
Brandon Rog I know. You're not alone in that. In fact, I suspect a majority of the fans had similar thoughts. But since I never had to wait between episodes, I never speculated. Adam was always a bad guy to me.
+Connor Duquette I somehow knew Adam would turn bad. There already were too many heroes for Adam to join the ranks. I at least hoped he'd turn neutral, be a brooding antihero that clashed with the Heroes at least every now and again. But the moment he slashed my favorite character's arm clean off.... GRRRRRRRRR..... Just thinking about it makes me angry!
Who else actually liked Adam when they saw this trailer? Still my fav weapon, but terrible person.
I couldnt agree more with you
He's the Virgil of RWBY
@@Kovugamez Except without the honor. Unfortunately
@@whensomethingcriesagain Donte's Vergil then?
@@leonardocarvalho3823 Precisely.
Can we all take a moment to look at the fact that he protects her and works well with her in this short. The only times that they aren't working well together in this video are when she is doubting him and or leaving him.
I also find it cool that sheathes of their blades are a tool for each of them in their combat styles.
Who else would just really like a series about Blake's life?
me and weiss too
I was wondering if their could be a mini series that depicted the lives of Team RWBY before they all went to Beacon.
Me
Or just another arc
Yes, Blake is my favourite Rwby character and she is such an interesting character like I can't wait to learn more about her in volume 4. Weiss is a close second and I can't wait to see her in the next volume too
Poor Yang... To this day she never tasted her strawberry sunrise... T_T
she tasted it.
Didn't she drink it when she went with neptune she said "you still per me a drink"
I honestly don't if it was sunrise or not.
LOL
Wrong trailer, mate
This trailer was always my favorite. I remember being so excited to watch this series all those years ago! Thank you Monty for everything. RIP Rooster Teeth
Once you hear Blake's voice in an Australian accent, you can never unhear it.
Sniper (tf2): "And . That is how is done."
Truth
It switches between Australian and American throughout
The potential RWBY had was insane.
Rip monty. It’s tragic that his vision for this show is gone forever.
i mean, it still has potential. like yeah the fight choreography isnt as inspired, but the story has improved tremendously. and monty would have trusted the people who are leading it, they were his friends
@@assirla100 the story is decent, but it's not what RWBY was intended to be. It isn't Monty's RWBY anymore, it's RT's RWBY and let's just say there's a reason most of the original RT people have quit because they don't like what the studio has turned into
you straight up dont know what monty wanted, i need to make this very clear, we didnt know monty like at all. we consumed his content but we had no idea what he intended rwby to be while Miles and Kerry did know Monty and were personal friends with him. They would actually know what he wanted Rwby to be, not you@@ICantThinkOfAFunnyHandle
@@ICantThinkOfAFunnyHandle It might not have ever been Monty's RWBY, the trailers have absolutely nothing to do with what the show was. The tone, world, characters, atmosphere, everything took itself more seriously in the trailers while still being fun and insanely cool. Then the writing of S1 toned everything down, they made it the most generic anime-girls-train-to-fight-monsters plot imaginable where most of the focus is on jokes and adding more and more characters instead of fighting monsters or developing a compelling narrative. He barely had a chance to show off his animation talent because the show was so rushed.
I like the old character models a lot more.
Yep plus now they made the characters a bit weaker than the original trailers like they know so much but now it basic
The new models could look good if they actually bothered to give them texture + There's something about the eyes in the new models that don't look as good as the old models.
Me too
@@dr.pepper_bunny8639 ye that's why I stopped watching rwby a year back cuz it was starting to get boring

I love this trailer because it has meaning to it, whereas the others are just a mere display of skill sort of. this trailer not only displays blakes skill, but it also show her past. by far best of the trailers
It sucks because I loved Adam as a character before Vol. 3 Ep. 11. Oh well, I guess I can love to hate him now as an irredeemable villain...
I still like em

Aww, how nice of him opening the door and then jumping first like "ha you think I was opening it for you?"
Who else comes back to watch this trailer to see how cool and powerful Adam Taurus was before he became wasted potential?
I just rewatch these trailers because I like the animation style far more than the new, "revamped" animation style.
I'm rewatching the entire anime itself for the exactly 4th or 5th time
*Welcome to the RWBY fandom*
@@voltekthecyborg7898
True True!!
Exactly
Count me
So much of the flavour of rwby was lost when we lost Monty. His sense of rhythm in choreography from the first 3 seasons made fights so much of a spectacle. Everything season 4 onwards feels like it's lost its sense of self when it comes to fights or even just the writing in general. Recent seasons feel so detached from what made rwby shine.
Fights feel like an obligation, and Plot is second hand to redundant character growth.
After all the incredibly acrobatic feats they accomplished, and yet at the end Adam just allows Blake to cut him loose from the rest of the train?
+Jonathan Backo You really think she would let him just jump over?
+Shadowed Dragon Films "IT'S OVER. I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND!"
Dr. Mannulus "YOU UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER"
+Jonathan Backo This was the plan, actually. Weiss mentions that an entire train of dust was stolen, and the cargo on this train has her family's logo on it. Pretty obvious that this was the train they stole.
+CrypticNazo *car, Weiss doesn't mention the entire train.
"an entire train car full of dust... stolen" [S1, E15, 8:00]
Clearly Adam's semblance is slow-motion minimalism.
So Raiden's Blade mode?

Scheneighnay No, his semblance is glowing hair
This just makes me miss Monty even more and the old storyline.

Reasons to realize Adam was one of the most powerful villain. That Semblance is way to overpowered to know that the robot disintegrated into nothing
The Adam in Black trailer is so cool and badass and I like how he turned to Blake to see if she's okay when she was hit by the robot at 3:13. That just showed how he cared for her. I love the scenes, the music from peaceful to hype with a little bit of sadness in it, and how Blake left Adam at the end...
Ever since I was eager to see stories between Adam and Blake. But what I see is how RT has ruined the character, making him looked like a obsessive brainless whiny ex boyfriend that only cares for himself. And now finally RT decided to shut him off the show by giving him an insignificant death.
Sigh, RIP Adam. The cool and mysterious you in this trailer will always be missed.
Exactly! Adam was a very grey character, you wanted to hate him for the horrible things he did, but you could seriously understand with him LITERALLY being branded like an animal by humans.
"Ruined his character"
You mean gave him a character.
Before volume 3 there was nothing there aside from whatever was formed in the headcanons of the fans.
People didn't like Adam, they liked the OCs they created from his name and image and grew disappointed CRWBY didn't use them for the actual character.
plsss someone make a canon where ADAM is back being cool and mysterious
@@mhikosale7233 You mean the head canons people made the first time they saw him?
@Daviator el Quesillo Blake only mentions Adam in volume 2 and she describes him as a monster that hates equality.
They planned for Adam to be this way from the very start.
I do admit that the fighting isn't as "spectacular" since Monty left us but I still think it's pretty great. People can complain or criticize all they want but Monty was just on another level that not too many people can match and finding another person like him would be pretty hard.
- I do wish they kept the original art style though
That’s a common misconception though Monty had a close team of freinds who could match his style. Pyrrahs epic training room fight was done by someone other then Monty.
Rt dropped the ball.
Yeah I really love the original art style.
So, I already saw this like 10 times, but now I was finally thinking while watching this. "I'll set the charges"
"What about the crew members?"
"What about them?"
That Blake look after Adam's response... I think this is the time when he realised that leaving him and the White Fang is right and she really doesn't wanna be part of what they do. Like she knew that before but I suppose this was her final question...
3:55 i cant get over adams evil laugh its just awesome
I love if you put on the subtitles its (Sinister laugh)
It's 2023 and I still comeback for these amazing fight scenes
The current RWBY team could never have a fight scene around bullet propeled quick draw fighting style
Rip Adam Taurus... The most Intriguing character in rwby gone to waste. May your Moon Slices never be forgotten ......
I knew Blake was a cat-girl the minute I saw a bow in her hair. I initially thought they were ears, & was happy to see my hypothesis proven :)
10 years later and that final attack is still one of the coolest things this team has put out.
Okay, let's compare and contrast, here...
*Adam:* Black and red color scheme, an opened-up rose insignia on his back, red highlights in his hair, rose petal-like effects during his ultimate attack, and his weapon is a close-ranged blade (katana; meant for up close, personal confrontation) inside a relatively close-ranged firearm (shotgun).
*Ruby:* Red and black color scheme, a closed rose as her insignia, red highlights in her hair, rose petal-like effects whenever she attacks, and her weapon is a relatively long-reaching blade (scythe; it's long handle makes it impractical for real close-quarter combat) inside of a long-range firearm (sniper).
.... WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!!!!
holy crap..........now that gets you thinking.
BionicDirector117 I'm also gonna take a wild guess at what's behind Adam's mask.
Ozpin (from Ep.1): "You... Have silver eyes."
XshadOtakuX oh
my
god
now I'm REALLY anxious for volume 2
BionicDirector117 *TENSION INTENSIFIES!*
From Monty Oum and the RWBY wiki: Despite this resemblance to Ruby, Monty Oum has stated that the two are not related, and the difference between them being "the scatter and the wilt.
did you notice that every trailer the moon is breaking more and more?
0:10
Not just in the trailers but seemingly trough the whole series. And the camera is shifting to it suspiciously often. That has to be some major foreshadowing...
@@cybernet343 I'm pretty sure it's already broken and it just rotates so some nights you see it more than others
@@xsirenflyx I know and I never stated otherwise.
@@xsirenflyx I may be reading into it too much, but to me, it looked like the moon is actually returning to its original form. Mayhaps it's the rotation, but it looks often as if the pieces are bring drawn to the rest of the planet, mayhaps meaning the prophesied day, when the relics are brought together and mankind is judged by the gods? I mean, they did destroy it, when they left remnant, so....who knows?
@@maddocstein6807 you're reading into it too much lol
Monty looking at vol 5-6 adam:
My son, what have they done to you?
They destroyed his character
Miles & Kerry: *Laughing*
Looking back at the old trailers, I really miss the trailers form of fighting style in the show. The crisps, sharp, weighted, well-themed, unique weapons, tight choreographed fight scenes. Now, there are barely a shadow of what there were. Thank you for the good memories RWBY. RIP Monty.
Trailer: Wow, Blake is so cool and likable.
V1-V3: Mysterious... she’s awesome!
V4-V7: *rolls eyes*
That’s everyone at this point god if she stuck with Adam or atleast tried to fix/help him I wonder if she would’ve been a more likable character we’re all used to her usual so now it’s just annoying
@@JohnCena-xu3jr Don't speak for everyone lol I am not included in that bunch.
Divine Dragon It was like a joke over exaggerated what I mean by everyone is a large group of ppl also adding lol does not make it feel friendly
You can't keep a character mysterious forever. Eventually you have to either show what's underneath, or admit that there *isn't* anything underneath.
@@EbonyManta u completely missed the point
I sometimes come back to these trailers, to look at the beast choreography that Monty did. I miss those days
i just realized this is a train from the SCHNEE company did u guys c all the snowflakes on there?!?!!?
+KatlinGamerGirl :3 This heist gets mentioned a few times in the series you know.
Tahanok2 ya i just realized that that was the train lol im so unobservant XD
+KatlinGamerGirl :3 Well, that explains why Blake knew about the company in the 2nd episode.
***** i think everybody knows about the company
I realised that way back in 2013...
"Your hopes have become my burden. I will find my own liberation..." Maybe this is Blake saying that she doesn't believe in Adam's beliefs anymore and wishes to seperate herself from him to find out what was the right thing to do. (S3 SPOILER)
When Blake and Adam meet again, she points out how everything he was doing was wrong, and his ideals weren't what Blake wanted from the White Fang.
That is what the theme is until it was retconed
Not to mention it’s a haiku
I actually like Adam. I mean he's relatable. It's natural to go mad when you've been discriminated, tortured, and abandoned. Not saying it gives him the right, and I don't blame Blake at all. It's just that I can't hate him. In fact it makes me like him more. It's hard to describe, but Adam is easily in my top five characters
I can say the same
Same. But like not same. I hate him cause of what he's don't to Blake but I think he's got a great story
@@nash2537 Yep. Miles and Kerry made him a cliche abusive ex.
Same, he’s my favorite villain
He's my favorite villain as well. Too bad he went to waste, because...shipping
I hope I'm not the only person who got reminded of Shia LeBeouf saying "Just do it!" When Adam said "Do it!"
i never realized because my brightness is always at zero but you can actually see the robot spider on top of the screen at 2:47
Oh my god... I never noticed that.
My favorite of the original 4 trailers; I feel like the Love, Death + Robots segment "Blind Spot" had to have taken some inspiration from this and the whole awesome robot action on a moving train schtick.
Who was in charge of weapon designs? I want to shake that person's hand.
Well Adams weapon is pretty similar to Samuel's weapon from Metal Gear Rising. And the glock katana is nothing new, the concept has made an appearance before.
Ogknav Wouldn't call it a katana, heck I'd be circumspect to call it a kodachi, it's onesided with a hook is more similar to a Turkish scimitar if anything.
Ogknav You know, Adam's weapon and fighting style really reminds me of a combination of Jetstream Sam, and Devil May Cry 3's Vergil.
DAMN! I thought the lyrics were just good poetry, but after the revelation of Episode 15 and Weiss mentioning the train hijacking... The song has a much deeper meaning. It's how the Faunus were just trying to casually go about their days, but their differences made humans discriminate them and when the Faunus were shoved to the cliff, they started fighting back.
Clever Monty, very clever.
I listened to this song again after ep15 and honestly, it all made sense. They talk about how the Faunus are treated as less and the video matches with what Blake says about the White Fang, FORESHADOWING!! I kinda want to see this Adam guy come back though
R.I.P Monty Oum, best person ever
Adam my dude, you had so much potencial. How dirty they handled your character should be a crime.
Yup
My favorite character, Blake Belladonna
my to
it was sooooooo weird hearing my name
Ikr!!!
+TheSpore35 Same :D
everyone who have saw or still see the RWBY know what is going on with her (NO SPOILER) i just love her
My opinion: this is the best trailer.
That just shows how awesome Blake is, since Adam kind of took the 'look like a monster' and turned it into 'become a monster', and is probably the most hated person.
You know I gotta agree with you it showed the back story of three characters
Almost 6 years ago now....man....I feel old. It's also sad to see how far Rooster Teeth has fallen in that time....... RIP Monty, I wish your vision was the one we truly got to see.
Okay so I know this is about Blake's backstory but like I would have preferred to see more blake being badass and less red head dude considering this is her trailer lol
To be fair, Blake did kick a lot of ass in this trailer. Give her some credit.
JameboHayabusa I think you missed my point.
I understand what you're saying and I do agree. It would have been nice to see Blake's fighting abilities showcased by herself and have Adam appear at the end of the trailer, so we could see what she was truly made of..
Although, the character interaction WAS nice at the time considering Blake probably had the least amount of dialogue from Team RWBY in volume 1.
JameboHayabusa Yes yesss exactly. Like the other girls got to kick ass in their trailers, whereas Blake actually has to get her butt saved by a dude in hers. I mean she still kicks ass but still :/
Yeah the one thing I did like more about volume 2 was we actually get to see the girls talking to each other more.
In all fairness and honesty, he is a big part of her story. And also her and his attacks were very well coordinated. So when she leaves him he fighting style changes. See has a fighting style that is hard to be alone with. Also Adam (Red and brown haired dude) comes back in season 2, if you haven't watched it.
Rest in Peace Monty. Your girls live on.
I hope they bring Adam back. That dude got some mad skills.
Don't worry, Adam will come back. Proof: twitter.com/montyoum/status/399672691407347712
RandomGirl119
Adam kinda looks like Raven from Gravion.
Volume 3....
I just remember how Blake was reading "Dr Jekkyl and Mr Hyde" and is so accurate to Adam.
Adam...The combination of Jetstream Sam and Vergil
i think that too hahahahaha
+Kaiden Krueger I was thinking Alpha patrokolis from Soul calibur 5
+Slick Shots Nah. Adam, Vergil and Patroklos all use Iado style, but he fights more like Vergil than Patroklos.
More like Jetstream Sam and Akame Yagyu from onimusha.
I totally agree with Vergil all the way xD
Got a cat food ad while watching this video. 11/10 foreshadowing
Adam is such an awesome character. He reminds me so much of Vergil from DMC 3 like the weapon and fighting style. Even their hairstyles are similar, except for the color.
same here.
Very cool. Especially his Iaido style, always been one of my favorites. Shame his voice actor isn't very good...
gavin manzi Ya hopefully there will be a better voice actor for Adam when he shows up in rwby
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. The dude barely said anything yet, and what he did say consisted of "it's time", "looks like we're doing this the hard way", and "let's do this!" He a COOL character but we can't conclude how interesting or "awesome" he is yet.
Hey, I just said I liked his fighting style. You can clearly see that from this trailer.
You can tell these trailers we're completely Monty's vision because the way they fight characterizes them. None if that in the ace ops fight
Two things I don't get about this trailer: This took place when Blake was still in the white fang, so why isn't she wearing a grim mask? Also, Its not like Blake is trying to hide that she is a fonis in this trailer, so why is she still wearing the bow? (Also does anyone else think Blake sounds British when she says "okay" at the start of the trailer?) Regardless this trailer is still amazing.
I think it's because the animators wanted no spoilers.
Anyone else see that red sword with the trigger scabbard and think of the High Frequency Murasama?
THANK YOU!
+Sasuke Uchiha and i just now realised im talking to sasuke
+The_Finn_Gamer *snores* PANCAKES!
+Sasuke Uchiha coincidence? sasuke talking about a red sword which is a katana, Lol it's an obvious one
Mind if I cut in?
With Adam's end, scenes like this 1:28, will not be possible again.
R.I.P Adam, "From shadows" is more like Adam's theme than Blake's.
What a waste.
I feel like Adam's character was wasted
True
Cause it was
@@JohnCena-xu3jr It really was though
completely
What character?
Damn, Adam went through a fighting regression in Volume 5. Actually, you know what, the fight scenes and the way characters fight went through a regression.
Master Vidxad 58
Everything got worst. fighting, characters, plot, animation... (In my opinion)
@@QurenTheShield If only the series stayed the way it was
@@newtyda1st590
Agreed.
@@QurenTheShield In fact I am working on a project
@@newtyda1st590
Oh yeah? What are you working on?
Everyone's gonna hate Adam after today
still my favourite character
Mine too. Adam's the perfect combination of Jetstream Sam and Vergil
+Earthdestroyers99 Nope. 3rd favorite. Although he is at the same the butt of many of my jokes out there.
not really I'm upset he cut off Yang's arm but to me Adam is the biggest badass after Qrow and one of my favorites
+Sherianna Reacts I don't like him as an actual character*
that ending piano music is amazing
Anyone here after V6 E12, "Seeing Red"?
Me
Here I'm, still hating volume 6.
Lady Phoenix22 no he didn’t deserved that...
@@giancarlobarbieri7685 Right
Me
Watching this trailer again and later seasons (4-8), makes me almost believe someone at RT intentionally sabotaged the show in favor of weird writing and relationships. So much lost potential with earlier characters and plot.
I don't think it was intentional sabotouge. but the team was embracing fan ships as early as season 1-2
The Strat names Ruby calls out in the fight against torchwig in an atlas mec are all ship names. so this was inevitable
