Well, you're right about the first 2. We will eventually get the Manga anthology but it hasn't even officially finished it's official run on Shonen Jump yet. So in won't be released for a while.

>wearing RWBY clothing
I hope you don't actually do that.
>>2341189
There's a reason why I haven't bought any of the shirts which have RWBY™, A ROOSTERTEETH® PRODUCTION plastered all over.
The plain Schnee emblem, however, looks snazzy and I'd happily own a plain T-shirt with it on it.
>>2341193
what reason?
>>2341197
Because being wearing obnoxious advertising is stupid.
>>2341193
Even if other people don't know what you are wearing, you do.
>>2341209
I'm not sure what you're getting at.
I don't find the complex designs and logos aesthetically pleasing.
We need more Vol 4 clothing used in art
>>2341210
I dunno. I'd just be embarrassed to be wearing RWBY clothing. It'd be like wearing Frozen stuff because you like Elsanna.
>>2341216
I don't see why I would give a fuck. I like the show and I have enough disposable income to make forking over few dozen bucks for a nice shirt a trivial matter. I also bought the Weiss plushie because I like how it looks sitting in my penny jar.
>>2341222
The show or the fan content?
>>2341231
Yes?
>>2341231
do you legitimately think everyone here is only here because they like the fan content but not the show itself?
I almost bought a hoodie once that featured the logo of a company that the main character of a show I liked worked for. It was stealth enough that it would just look like a generic logo to most people, and only people familiar with the franchise would get it. But I backed off because there was a bit of Engrish on the logo and it bothered my OCD.
But if you can wear something cringe-worthy in public, more power to you. I try to wear the most generic stripey shirts I can find. I dress myself so that if I were a victim of something, I would be as unremarkable as possible.
>>2341241
It used to be that way.
>>2341258
I own a rwby shirt but I usually only wear it to conventions or other nerd friendly environments.
I have a couple shirts with my favorite bands.
Other than that I tend to dress logo free.
I'm not going to be free advertising for some corporation. Adidas and Coca-cola can find some other sucker to be a walking billboard.
>>2341282
>Wearing a T Shirt of something you enjoy
>A bad thing somehow
>>2341301
The people who like the things that I like are generally annoying and I dislike talking to people as it is. Wearing anything that might entice people to engage me in conversation is a no-no. Going to the GITS movie was cringe-worthy enough when I was dressed like I was going to a funeral. But the people who can wear that kind of stuff probably have a lot more fun with their favorite franchises than I do.
>>2341331
I suppose so but I rarely have that problem. I'll have people say they like my shirt or whatever but then I just ignore them and they never talk to me again

I hate this outfit.
>>2348713
Is it the neck thing? It's the neck. I understand that Yang wearing a high collar is part of her design, but this outfit does it poorly compared to the others. The incomplete cape is also weird, but the thick collar really stands out as particularly bad. Though, I do like Yang covering up her arm with the glove and the leather arm guard.
>>2348726
Yes, the neck thing is horrible. I'm also not a fan of the zippers on her boots and...cuffs? The flaps coming off the belt are the worst though.
>>2348713
It's the Monty Oum (tm) rule of designing outfits that are easy to cosplay.
The neck thing is still fucking stupid.
>>2348735

>>2348834
Yes. You can very clearly see it has much better color choices and general design than the model.
>>2348726
>>2348774
>>2348785
I'm pretty sure the collar is an airbag helmet.
We've had those for a while now, and it'd fit Remnant's scifi theme. Yang also made a point of using a helmet when riding Bumblebee previously, so her forgoing it now seems a bit weird.
It's weird if it's there for no reason, but I can respect it being a helmet.
>>2348887
You say that until we're halfway through V5, bumblebee hasn't been seen since E1 and she's still wearing it.
>>2348692
The Ren and Nora backstory it provides is nice. (I'd argue it's the high point of a very underwhelming Volume but I'm a Renora fan so...) Also the Qrow vs. Tyrian fight was cool.

On one hand, there is no way RT would ever let a song spoil Bumblebee happening (if it is happening), but on the the other hand, that title... I'm conflicted here to be honest. RT letting Jeff "spoil" Ren/Nora and Arkos was fine since everyone could see it coming the moment the parties involved were introduced. I just can't see a pairing like BB getting the same treatment with all of the buzz(heh)surrounding it. I'm sure RT would want to milk the suspense and reveal of it happening in the show itself, and not for the soundtrack. I feel like it is more likely to be a Ren/Nora song even though the title, the sound, and the lyrics don't really fit that pairing's theme.
>>2352324
I mean, there's a pun in the lyrics. And puns are Yang's thing.
>>2352301
Isn't her voice actress not with Rooster Teeth anymore?
>>2352367
If I were to guess what the song is about based strictly on the music itself and not the larger context of the show, I would agree. Yet, at the same time, I can't explain why RT would okay a song about Yang's feelings for Blake. Let's assume Bumblebee is happening, and was planned to happen for some time. It's clear from the way the show has presented Blake and Yang's relation that BB is intended as a subtle development. Not a direct 'boy-meets-girl' like Arkos, but something slower that grows alongside the main story. Why would they suddenly let it out now before Volume 5 when Volume 4 was a continuation of that subtle development? Armed and Ready fits in perfectly with how their relationship has been shown on screen with that one lyric that indicates greater feelings under the surface, but still nothing overt. Bmblb is just too direct for me to assume it's about Blake and Yang even if the sample suggests that's exactly what it is about.
I dunno. Fortunately it isn't a long wait until the soundtrack comes out, and then we can sort this out.
>>2352368
Is that true? I knew Kathleen was in hot water after the whole animator letter incident, but I didn't think it would be enough to get her fired/make her leave RT. I'm not up on my RvB, but I'd think they still need Tex.
>>2352372
It's also worth mentioning that this is the Song that Jeff decided to add to the soundtrack as a consolation for him being laid up in the hospital, causing the soundtrack to be so fucking late.
The way his post made it sound, it sounded like he started making this while he was in the hospital.
IDK! I'm so confused and hopeful at the same time!
>>2352368
>>2352373
She's not been with RT for a while.
>>2352372
>Armed and Ready fits in perfectly with how their relationship has been shown on screen with that one lyric that indicates greater feelings under the surface, but still nothing overt.
But Blake doesn't come up in Armed And Ready at all. She's singing about rushing to help out Ruby.
>Why would they suddenly let it out now before Volume 5 when Volume 4 was a continuation of that subtle development?
Well, it's Pride Month. Which might play into what this Anon said. >>2352438
>>2352373
Tex has been gone for a while. But yeah, RT's relation with Kathleen was pushed over the edge when Kathleen (once again) started shit on twitter, basically accusing them of Nepotism and saying how Ashley would never have gotten a job at RT if she wasn't dating Burnie.
Regardless of how accurate that statement may or may not be, it was still a real bitch move on her part.
>>2352441
I'm going to be nice and assume you're not being a contrarian, but instead assume you just haven't had the chance to look at the lyrics closely yet.
>It happens every night
>I watch my world ignite
>But there’s no waking from this nightmare
These opening lines refer to Yang's nightmares in Volume 4. The nightmares about the night Adam chopped her arm off. This gives the audience context for the next verse.
>My eyes are open wide
Refers to the focus shot on Yang's eyes when she-
>I’m racing to her side
charged at Adam who was standing in front of Blake.
>There’s nothing that I won’t do for her
Ruby wasn't present for the Adam confrontation, and Blake was the only other 'her' besides Yang that was. It can only be her in this context.
>But this is not a dream
Another reference to the nightmares. This part of the song has nothing to do with the conclusion of Volume 4, and everything to do with the conclusion of Volume 3. There are a few more lines in these two verses that indicate that they are about Yang losing an arm after watching Blake get stabbed, but the above should be enough for any reasonable person. If you disagree, quote lines from the song and link them to your argument to explain why.
>>2352438
>IDK!
Stop that.
Also, the soundtrack isn't any indication of canon.
According to the soundtrack, Ozpin is a massive dick who is lying about everything and convincing child soldiers to fight for his personal grudge. Ruby felt torn up and betrayed by her mother's death, when we already know she was too young to really be impacted by it.
We already know Blake's theme isn't actually relevant to her character, since she wasn't born with no life, into subjugation, treated like a worthless animal and stripped of all rights. She was born the daughter of the chieftan of an entire nation where everyone was faunus.
The songs are just inspired by the general ideas of characters and events. It's the last place you should look for hints about what is going to happen.
>My eyes are open wide
>Refers to the focus shot on Yang's eyes when she-
>>I’m racing to her side
>charged at Adam who was standing in front of Blake.
>There’s nothing that I won’t do for her
>Ruby wasn't present for the Adam confrontation, and Blake was the only other 'her' besides Yang that was. It can only be her in this context.
>But this is not a dream
Reaching very hard.
The far more simple and logical explanation is that she is now aware of her failings (that is the universal metaphor associated with one's eyes being wide open) she is going to Ruby's side, not Blake's, and unlike the afformentioned nightmares, it is not a dream, she is doing it for real.
>>2352460
You had me up until the last line. Because that's clearly where she makes the distinction between her past actions in her nightmares and her current actions. Which makes sense. Since the whole song is about Yang moving on from that traumatic experience . Which includes going to help her sister.
>>2352463
>We already know Blake's theme isn't actually relevant to her character, since she wasn't born with no life, into subjugation, treated like a worthless animal and stripped of all rights. She was born the daughter of the chieftan of an entire nation where everyone was faunus.
Blake's song is duet. The harsher male vocals might be Adam's backstory.
>>2352463
>The far more simple and logical explanation
Nightmare referring to Yang's nightmares of Adam is complex? A line being a vague metaphor rather than a continuing description of the day Adam cut her arm off (which, again, is what her nightmares are about) is simple?
"You're wrong because you're wrong," isn't an argument. Cite lines from the song that indicate the line in question is about Ruby, or are not referring to Blake. The closest you get to doing that is the final two lines of your post, but that is easy to counter anyway. The reason it isn't a dream is because it really happened, and she is still missing an arm. The next two lines after this one also refer to Yang's repeated nightmares and the fact that she can't stop thinking about the night she lost her arm. The context is still firmly about Adam and Blake with no reference to Ruby.
>>2352472
How so? The second verse ends with more references the pain she feels over losing her arm. It isn't until the third verse that the song moves away from Yang's suffering to her rejuvenation at the end of Volume 4. Also, there is still no context to imply it is about Ruby.
The song isn't about Yang racing to Blake's side now, but when Adam stabbed her. If there is any confusion, I'm not arguing otherwise. I'm just saying the 'racing to her side' is a continuing description of the Adam-Blake scene.
>>2352472
>>2352463
Not the anon you responded to.
Ok, you'd be right if there were no other context for these words.
But fine, I'll go through the entire thing to show you where you're wrong
Let's take the lyrics from the top
>It happens every night
>I watch my world ignite
>But there's no waking from this nightmare
She IS talking about her nightmares
>The stage is always set
>The place I can't forget
>The hidden eyes that I can feel there
She IS talking about Adam here and the night she lost her arm, There is no getting around that.
>My eyes are open wide
Blah blah blah other anon already covered this part so I'll skip to the next part.
>But this is not a dream
>My mind repeats the scene
>I can't forget it and it's torture
Her mind wouldn't be repeating the scene and it wouldn't be torture if this was about Ruby. She talking about her trauma.
>That was before
>But not anymore
>I've left it behind
There, only NOW, is she talking about herself post robo arm. You can make whatever inferences from the rest of the lyrics but that first part IS for sure talking about the night she lost her arm. Which by logic, means
>there's nothing I won't do for her
is referring to Blake.
And honestly, Ruby doesn't really factor in anywhere else in the song anyways. If anything the later part of the song is more about how she plans to kick the shit out of Adam the next time they meet.
>>2352480
>Nightmare referring to Yang's nightmares of Adam is complex?
Wow, what a strawman. I clearly quoted exactly what I was referring to.
>My eyes are open wide refers to this one shot out of a miriad of shots where Yang's eyes open wide
>This is not a dream refers back to the nightmares-- b-but it doesn't refer to the current moment where she's woken from the nightmares and is going to see her sister not Blake, because I don't want it to
Is complex and reaching. There is nothing vague about "My eyes are open wide". If you go to a hundred people and ask them what it means. They are going to say "it means you've realized something"
>"You're wrong because you're wrong," isn't an argument.
Then it's a good thing I didn't make that argument anywhere, but please continue to vomit strawman arguments.
>Cite lines from the song that indicate the line in question is about Ruby
> The context is still firmly about Adam and Blake with no reference to Ruby.
>I'm racing to her side
>Yang is going to Ruby
>Yang is not going to Blake
I really don't know how it could be made clearer than this. We know who Yang is racing towards. It is not Blake.
Not only is it not Blake: Blake was never even a choice she considered. She was struggling to decide between chasing after her mother's shadow or rushing to Ruby's side, and she picks Ruby. How can you possible read this as anything else?
>>2352494
The song isn't about her choice to go after Raven or Ruby you mong!
It was a battle anthem about her vowing to kick the shit out of Adam the next time she sees him now that she's over (most) of herYangst.
How are you possibly this dense?
Freddie Mercury, when asked if a song had a certain meaning that a listener had interpreted:
"If you see it, darling, then it's there."
>>2352490
>She IS talking about her nightmares
No one is disputing that it starts with her discussing her nightmares.
The song is very clear. It follows exactly what Yang went through.
>She has nightmares
>She is tortured by the nightmares of what happened
>My eyes are open wide
She realizes that she's being halted by her past failings.
>That was before
>But not anymore
>I've left it behind
She moves on.
And what do we know she does when she moves? She goes after Ruby. Who is she racing to? Ruby. Who does she make a comment about being in trouble when she finds her? Ruby.
>N-no the song actually just shifts from following exactly what she's been doing and starts talking about some weird hypothetical completely unrelated to her current feelings and goals
>>2352497
>It was a battle anthem about her vowing to kick the shit out of Adam the next time she sees him now that she's over (most) of her Yangst.
>Even though she shows zero interest in finding Adam and just crossed the sea to go help her baby sister chase down Cinder, not the White Fang.
>She's racing towards Blake I swear. She just go turned around.
>How are you possibly this dense?
I don't know, anon. I guess the convoluted headcanon you've come up with to force your ship is just too deep for me.
>>2352494
You quoted a block of text, and then you dismissed it as reaching without connecting it to the source material to explain in detail in what ways it is reaching. You just follow up with a vague 'simple and logical explanation.' Which, if it were truly simple and logical, would make it trivial to point out the parts of the song that support your claim and disprove mine.
>There is nothing vague about "My eyes are open wide"
Out of context? Sure. In the context of this song? Nope. The first two verses refer to an incident in which Yang's eyes were clearly open. Why can't I take a literal interpretation of this line? Especially when the camera shot in Volume 3 was very specific in focusing on Yang's eyes. Also, if this verse opens on the idea of Yang realizing something, then why does it still end referring to her repeated nightmares about Adam? How is her racing after Ruby a dream?
>We know who Yang is racing towards. It is not Blake.
I really don't know how it could be made clearer than this read the second half of my post mate.

Was Before.
Let me ask you this.
What physically is happening in this picture.
>>2352480
What is Yang PHYSICALLY doing in this moment?
If you seriously can't comprehend that the song is describing what was PHYSICALLY describing what was happening when she lost her arm, you are either genuinely retarded, or fishing for (you)s

>>2354932
What I mean is that from what i've heard, it's not common knowledge on Tumblr quite yet. Once it spreads over there, then the shit will really start.
>>2354937
They aren't going to react any different than the shippers here did.
>>2354939
True, but there are more there than there are here and they have a tendency to be at least twice as obnoxious.
>>2354941
I'd say it's less about being more obnoxious, and more about the saturation of obnoxious people here being lower, but yeah, it will be a bit louder.
>>2354932
I do think there is a bit of justification for the upset caused by this song. I would say 'Armed and Ready' was more embarrassing for the fandom since avid anti-BB fans purposely misread the lyrics to deny it having anything to do with Blake, and avid BB fans took one line as a confirmation for the pairing. There were clear overreactions over a single line from both sides. This sample however, is disconcerting, and I say that as a BB shipper. The lyrics are so far from what has been shown on screen that I don't believe it is reasonable to interpret it based on the show at all. There is still a part of me that considers this a big misunderstanding, and that it must be a Renora song (somehow). Maybe the full release will clarify the lyrics, but serious theories for BB happening are predicated on the two developing overt feelings for each other after reuniting, and not on them (or one of them) having had overt feelings this whole time.
I'm worried that either: a) BB is happening, and we're suppose to assume a lot of BB's development happened off screen already. b) We're getting a love triangle that will almost certainly distract from far more interesting storylines. c.) RT is just abusing their fans for cheap sales.
Yeah there is a lot of obnoxious, overemotional reactions to a 30-second sample right now, but there is some reason to believe this song is just going to lead to something worse.
>>2354953
>but serious theories for BB happening are predicated on the two developing overt feelings for each other after reuniting, and not on them (or one of them) having had overt feelings this whole time.
This is kinda the problem though, and the reason why BB has the reputation it does. Many (most?) of the more vocal fans of the ship do the exact opposite. They don't talk about the two developing feelings for each other at some point in the future after they are reunited. They delude themselves into believing that things like Yang being flirty (which she is towards other people as well) or getting uspet at a teammate being stabbed, or Adam using the world "love" means that they actually have romantic feelings for each other now (or even, that they have had them since V2).
There's nothing wrong with being excited over an early sign that maybe a ship might eventually happen, but when the word "bait" is already being tossed around >>2353750
It's probably a good idea to take a step back and realize that it is just a song and not any deeper indication of anything until something romantic actually happens.Like Blake picking the better girl.
>>2354959
I agree with what you have typedexcept for your bad taste in girls. My personal theory for BB happening was based on the idea that Blake and Yang realize hidden feelings after watching the other almost die. Which then leads to them acknowledging those feelings more openly after reuniting and clarifying what happened after the Adam confrontation. There are a few small moments prior to that confrontation that suggests that Yang may have had some feelings towards Blake, but nothing to the level this sample suggests. The lines that trouble me are:
>But they watch us, and they know
>And they’re happy as they see our love grow
When the hell did this happen? Even if we assume Yang has had feelings for Blake since the beginning, there is nothing in the show that supports this line. Who knows? How do they know? Why doesn't the receiver of this love know if it is that obvious? The rest of the sample is standard 'one-sided and unspoken declarations of love.' I can buy that enough to at least wait until the release before thinking too hard about it, but this line just stumps me. It's out of left field.
>>2354973
>bad taste

If I were a BB shipper, I'd argue the "they" is breaking the 4th wall and refers to the fanbase, but I'm agood person.
>>2354979
>Thinking Weiss is better than Winter
Okay now we're having words about your bad taste. Where do you live?
>>2354982
No, no. I'm saying that Weiss is superior, in part, because she has a better sister than Yang does.
>>2354959
>Seriously thinking Monochrome can happen
Ha ha ha. Monochrome is WR-tier of things that will never happen in the series.
It's sad but the only good things ever come out from RWBY are the music and Shirow Miwa manga.
It's not canon until we get an onscreen kiss but bmblb is a good sign.
>>2355047
>Seriously thinking Monochrome can happen
>Implying
You're projecting a little, I think. Not everyone is so obsessively concerned with canon status. I think it's a result of some shift in shipping as a whole over the years, from:
>Hey those two characters work well together, maybe I'll make some fan stuff where they become romantically entangled
to
>Wow I REALLY like these two characters together and I NEED them to be together in the show like they are in my fanfiction, or I will DIE.
I don't know why you'd want it to happen anyway. RWBY is bad and its writing is frequently even worse, why on Earth would I want a pairing I like to be ruined by awful writing and VA work when I can just enjoy comfy fan content?
>>2355372
>why on Earth would I want a pairing I like to be ruined by awful writing and VA work when I can just enjoy comfy fan content?
Because Canon status = WAAAAAY more fan content.
>>2355394
I guess that's why Renora has so much.
Oh wait.

The full song is amazing. It's certainly about Yang's love for Blake, and there's a pretty good chance the second verse is Blake talking about how much Yang lightens up her life. I still wish we had more overt scenes prior to this song's release, but this probably means such a scene happening in Volume 5 (maybe Vol. 6 I guess too).
>>2356172
so you're telling me I can't refresh this page for about a week?
>>2356173
>I still wish we had more overt scenes prior to this song's release.
Same. What we got was pretty on point if you're not in denial about them being bisexual but we could have gotten more.
>but this probably means such a scene happening in Volume 5 (maybe Vol. 6 I guess too).
I'm hoping and praying.
>>2356173
No I can't listen to it.can someone put it back up in soundcloud?
>>2356172
>>2356173
Kind of a let down. I agree it was about Yang liking Blake, but it also seemed really non-specific. The brightening up part didn't seem like it was from someone else, just a natural continuation of the speaker's affection, which is weird since bright and sweet aren't exactly the words I would attribute to Blake.
OK this is a duet. The voice becomes lower for the second verse.
>>2356178
Blake can be a fun girl when you don't annoy her. She certainly makes Yang smile..until the end of volume 3.
>>2356186
unless...its a song from BUMBLEBEE(the motorcycle's) POV.
>>2356186
When is Blake ever fun or bright? Everything makes Yang smile before the end of volume 3, except Neo(n).
>>2356191
ehh idk.. maybe that part is about Yang from Blake's POV..or again the song could be from the motorcycle pov.
They better not fuck this shit up. I know it isn't going to be prefect, but it better be on par with what we have gotten so far at a minimum.
>>2356203
Here it is. I do think the second verse is a lower register for some reason.
http://trinikim.tumblr.com/post/161607764958/bmblb-feat-casey-lee-williams-jeff-williams
>>2356199
I guess. I just wish if they were going to do this, they would have actually done it. It feels like they just sat down and wrote a cliche, pining love song that could be applied to anyone ever in the history of romance and then slapped the name bumblebee on it, instead of actually writing a song about Yang and Blake.
I mean, hell, If the song was just called "with me" and it played during a scene with Sun and Blake, it wouldn't be out of place. If it had a slightly more somber tone and played during a scene with Emerald and Cinder it wouldn't be out of place. It could have been played during a scene with Velvs and Coco and not been out of place.
I just wish they'd made it actually about bumblebee.
>>2356206
It's absolutely the same.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nn9pShFci0
Here's a youtube link since the soundcloud link died.
I think the problem is that RT doesn't take stuff like this as seriously as the fans do; which isn't entirely unreasonable of them since fans can reach pretty obsessive levels of getting into stuff, but in cases like this it means they might not realize what kind of message they're sending.

Honestly despite being really exited for Bad Luck Charm, it was the most disappointing for me out of the 4 released so far.
Now this 'Life is Mine' on the other hand...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UM59comMpxE
This was WAY better than I was expecting it to be. I was just expecting Mirror Mirror part 3 but this will probably end up being my favorite piece from the soundtrack (since the sample of 'home' didn't really do much for me).
>>2356276
>so-so vocal performance transitions into another generic williams rock song
>The rock part isn't anywhere near as good as some of the previous rock tracks
>some of the most ham-fisted lyrics yet
It was about what I expected when episode six aired and I was somehow supposed to find Weiss openly singing in front of a massive audience about her father trying to control and own her, believable in any way.

There you go. It's on Soundcloud.
>>2356652
The full release of Bmblb actually answered all my concerns. "They" referred to the animals of the garden, and is more about the love growing between the two subjects of the song rather than others seeing that love grow. The only thing left in question is who is 'singing' the second verse. Most of the song is clearly from Yang's perspective, but the second verse (lyric-wise) fits Blake's point-of-view from Volume 2. I don't know if it is suppose to be her pov since Casey sings both verses, but maybe it is. It doesn't really matter either way though.
Love the song though. These soundtracks get better with each volume.

Ah, too bad I missed that.
I like how the general conversation very quickly went from "It doesn't mean anything, don't be fucking delusional" to "It isn't necessarily canon, don't be delusional" when the full song was released.
>>2360766
You can tell it has them scared if they're arguing like that. It's full on romance, no need to be wishywashy here when subtext(actual subtext) is lifeblood. Also fuck off, it's too early to be having this dumb argument.
>>2360766
>It doesn't mean anything
>It isn't necessarily canon
How are these different?
>>2360822
The "doesn't mean anything" crowd was adamant that the song was about the bike or something. Until they became the "not canon" crowd.
>>2360822
>Bumblebee will never be canon
vs.
>Bumblebee probably won't be canon
In other words even BB doubters are aware enough to realize the bump that the probablility of BB happening just got.
>>2360854
Songs not being canon wasn't the noisy argument back then.
>>2360855
It was. No one was seriously arguing that the song was about the bike, it was about not having the full song to see what was going on, and that songs aren't canon to begin with. The anon who started that whole argument earlier in the thread literally started with
>>2352463
>the soundtrack isn't any indication of canon.
>>2360863
>No one was seriously arguing that the song was about the bike
There were a few people. Even after the full song came out.
Granted, you shouldn't give too much attention to the true loonies of any demographic, but still.
I also was talking about the discussion outside of this board. The way I recall the general conversation going elsewhere was along the lines of the eponymous bike there not being any evidence of Bumblebee. Maybe that just drowned out the canon arguments which didn't shrivel and die with the full release.
Also, I think that the soundtrack absolutely is an indication of canon. Not a confirmation of Yang loving Blake, not by a long shot, but the possibility of Bumblebee (or a love triangle) happening in the show is more relevant now that the song did come out. I wouldn't call it evidence, but it does suggestively wink in that direction.
>>2360854
>the album also has an eclipse song that is an actual duet.
What, Like Morning Follows Night?
That one really doesn't have any of the same overtones that Bmblb does. Like compare these two lyrics.
>And when we have a chance to make it better if we try; Oh, but I will not endanger one more friend; You're free to do the things you want; But listen, so am I; I made my choice; And now we'll make it right
vs
>We’ll sit for a while; As I drink in your smile; It feels like a dream that’s come true; My head starts to buzz;And my heart fills with love; Over you...
>>2360854
>eclipse song
How hard are you squinting?
>>2360876
>>2360877
Not that anon, but I would call LMFN an eclipse song, although it's good to keep in mind that the only romantic verses in the song are coming from Sun not Blake.
Unless you buy into the idea that Bmblb's second verse is Blake singing, (which i'm still not sure about one way or another) neither song really indicates how Blake feels.
>>2360876
And then the very next part is
>Go where you need to, know I won't leave you. I'll follow you like morning follows night. You can run till your pains through, but one thing I wont do, is to let you go alone to face the fight.
Let's also not forget that Not Fall in Love with You is a song that exists.
>>2360877
...Are you serious? The song is literally just paraphrasing the conversation Blake and Sun had after Sun was injured by Ilia.
I had a dream last night where BB was canon, and also Weiss was revealed to be Yandere for Blake.
>>2357650

>Blake/Illia endgame
I still almost wish this would happen just because of how much salt it would cause on both sides of the ship war.
>>2360978
Seems about as likely, there's clearly something going on there and Blake has known her longer.
The RWBY Volume 4 OST is current the Number 9 Album on iTunes. Yay?
>>2361333
Not surprising.
Each volume's OST has ended up as #1 album at one point. Seeing as we're competing with a Lorde album at the top, we might not hit #1 this time though.
Then again, vol 1 OST kicked the shit out of the Hunger games soundtrack so who knows.
>>2361338
It's been surprising/disappointing how many of the songs I've liked when we heard them in-show (This life is mine, Home, Bad luck charm) and then heard the full song and not enjoyed it. Bad luck charm in particular. I still like the first two, but not as much as I hoped.
The only two songs from the volume I liked in their entirety is Let's just live, which has also become my favorite intro, and Armed and Ready. (Which I didn't even like at first.)
>>2361333
People will gobble up any garbage RT puts out, so it's not that surprising. Just look at the RWBY merch.

Very true, but I've gotten pretty fast at using search to avoid straying for too long. Perhaps it is better to just forget it exists.
>>2362021
I think this episode alone has more Ruby/Blake interaction than the entirety of the canon.
>>2362037
Well, now we know she's just a back-up just in case Weiss doesn't pan out. That actually fits in canon in a twisted way. She only tried reaching out to Blake because Weiss blew her off. The Ruby-Blake interactions end once Weiss reluctantly becomes Ruby's friend after the forest arc. Ladybug was DOA.
>>2362063

That's almost as bad as forgetting Weiss' scar.
>>2352256

I disagree , I actually think she's a wonderful singer. As do the people around me who have no knowledge whatsoever of RWBY's existence, have heard their music due to me playing it aloud, and most have said Casey sings great, like she has caught their attention.
>>2363696
She is very standard in the general songs and not very good in the songs that require stronger singing, like the opening of This Life is Mine or Mirror Mirror Part 2. I guess the people around you have pretty poor taste, but then again there are people who think RWBY's story and writing are great, so I guess it isn't surprising people might think the same of the music.

So where did you learn to sing? Church choir or in school?
>>2363791
Neither.

I see you are both underage and a newfag.
Why don't you head on back to /r/RWBY or tumblr or whatever other shithole you just crawled out of.

Nah mate, surely you are the kiddo here. Adults only. Now leave.
Attention all quality Nazis: troubling reports from /aco/ indicate that tumblr doesn't provide maximum-resolution images by just changing the end of the URL to _1280. Using _raw gives the original upload resolution instead,
Case in point: >>2360825 is the _1280 version. Compare it to this one which is nearing 2000x1400.
I knew that tumblr downscaled things, but I didn't know that it actually kept the original.

Shit son, you weren't kidding

Great, now I get to deal with all the smug ">_1280" posts every time I post an image I had previously saved. You could have just let us live in blissful ignorance, sis.

Just like Plato said, one must make sacrifices or lead a life of ignorance.
Do all lesbians hate Boys Love?

Is that Ruble and Weiss' daughters?

Yes.

Don't think so.
