Can’t believe both of Tai’s wives went out to get cigarettes and milk.
Great. Now I have to clean drink off my desk
He has the rizz and the anti-rizz. Perfectly balanced.
They went out to get cigarettes and milk TOGETHER ! To be honest these two are cool together, though... Kinda like Ruby and Weiss Sr.
But still, Raven dumping Tayang once is a thing, but Summer asking her to help her do the same thing ? What the hell ?
Well Tai slept with half the team. I really cant understand their relation
@@nicolasbanidol2371 Summer asked for Raven's help to fight Salem and they both got bodied. Raven then said "fuck that" and never wanted to fight Salem again.
“What happens if I choose me?”
“Then maybe, that girl is enough.”
This gave me chills.
Honestly, the tree/blacksmith is probably one of the greatest characters ever written, not only do they support the characters in a healthy manner but also introduces the idea of change and evolvement in such a calm way. How changing yourself to something better doesn't have to be sudden or terrifying but something that should be considered a way of growing up and figuring out that being yourself is more than enough than to be something else entirely.
@@Dragonofthefrozeneclipse Makes me think of Uncle Iroh in a way.
Tells Zuko to be the fire lord and when Zuko says all the shit he did he smiles and goes "And yet, you're still enough. Those mistakes are why people will follow you. because you are human, just like them. You learned, just like them. And you grew. Just like them."
Really? Sounded kinda cringe to me. Maybe something like.
"Maybe I don't need enough hope to fill a jar. Just a little bit will be enough."
I feel like lots of girls need to hear that then maybe that girl is enough.
It brought tears to my eyes
Haven’t seen Ruby choreographed like this since the early days.
They've finally hired halfway decent animators.
@@Jules279 the style feels like a videogame cutscene maybe bc of the camera stayed on the side make it something that come from a knf or a fighting game tho but better than previous one that feels like nothing's special.
@@Jules279 the animation has always been good (for me personally) but it's the fight choreos that (for me) are lacking
@@Pokpak_Manoban it stopped being good after Monty's death
@Luno Sol That's cuz Monty was great with choreography
Ruby's original theme playing when she emerges was goosebump inducing. That was an entrance.
Me too dude because ruby she has the power of light to destroy darkness forever and ever again ✨️ ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💕 🙌 🌹💝🙏
RED LIKE ROSES !!!
no kidding. I went through the entirety of volume 9 waiting for this scene, and it did NOT disappoint.
No that was THE entrance 😩👏🏿
The best scene in history and that's why I love Rwby
Giddy as a school girl up until the gut punch of Roman/Neo admitting the truth. That. That was a kick in the heart.
I still say the it sucks and so does the rest of Season 9. Like seriously! Neo and The Cat were such An Awesome Villain Combo!
It would have been Terrific if they Got Rid of Salem and Cinder and become The New Main Villains!
And They still continue with the F@#£ing Misandric Feminist Narratives and Agendas! Alyx was the One Who Betrayed Jaune Damnit!

Whoever animated Rubys' barrage of attacks needs a pay raise. That was absolutely beautiful.
I wonder if they manage to up their animation team skill up to meet the Monty expectations. I don't think that they are bad at all, just, they are not on Monty level.
@@Theeight8bMonty had a style no one else in the industry had. It's hard to break out of the bland genetic overdone industry standard from every movie so far, and dare to do something that overachieves in every way.
@@jongyon7192p No argue there, his works still one of the best ones on the internet.
the first need to get paid
I'm not sure about that. Considering the controversies behind the scenes like the toxic work environment, harassment, and abuse, I don't think even a pay raise would be worth it. A whole bunch of the team got laid off during and after the production of Volume 9 too.
I hope the animators got paid enough before leaving or being let go and goes on to do better things in a place where they'd be more appreciated.
Ruby hasn't used the momentum of Crescent Rose's gunshots and weight to fight like this in years and it was so nice to see it here. I really hope that it continues in later volume.
Edit: Well, this aged badly
RT remembered who she was haha
I would say it was Monty's signatures, using Crescent Rose as a means of propulsion and as an achor.
@@Strobezyy Or, in-universe, Ruby remembered who she is, that she doesn't need to be anyone else.
@@ChaosKnight836 maybe the fact that she was getting increasingly more depressed everytime something happened made her slow, then after all of this she broke out of her depression and returned back to how she was previously?
Wonder why it took so long, maybe you guys should have held rt to a higher standard
The minute Ruby smiled again, I got real teary-eyed. I've waited for such a long time to see her cheery and happy again.
Me too dude because ruby she has the power of light to destroy darkness forever and ever again ✨️ ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💕 🙌 🙏💝🌹
I been waiting too see the old cinnamon bun again! Now nobody touch her or destroy her shin we must protect her!
Yep. The first time Ruby has genuinely smiled and not just put on a brave face in several volumes.
Welcome back, little red.
Neo's status is much better than either death or Redemption
"staying untill finding real yourself"
I still say the it sucks and so does the rest of Season 9. Like seriously! Neo and The Cat were such An Awesome Villain Combo!

The best ending she could’ve gotten honestly
@@shawnwarrynn8609 Seriously, why are just saying the same thing, EVERYWHERE?! We get it! You hated this volume!
@@BrattyRuby687
Because My comments keep disappearing when I type them down! So I'm seeing where they'll stick!
@@shawnwarrynn8609 It is the same over and over. RWBY sucks, it has horrible writing and story everywhere in most videos. At this point, no one cares anymore. Everyone is now just enjoying the show.
4:49 for the first time since Volume 4, I genuinely felt excited with the animation. This Ruby with the quick flourishing of her scythe and using it to propel herself while shooting the enemy was the closest to what I knew Monty did back in the earlier volumes. Ngl it really felt like she was back.
Actually I have a small theory that Ruby wasn't really fighting at her fullest since Volume 3, when Beacon fell. Her depression really started all the way back in there, but she tried her best to keep moving forward until she broke. But ultimately she found herself again, and thus - she started fighting the same way she did back in Ruby trailer and Volume 1/2.
@@venomm4563 If you think about it. Her team had time to work trough their traumasduring volume 4 and partly volume 5 even a bit. But Ruby pretty much has been going nonstop ever since the fall of Beacon.
And I to directly got the feeling of Red Trailer Ruby. Not just because of the start of Red like roses, but also her fighting style. :) Even if i kind of hoped för her to get a new weapon. ;)
@@venomm4563 Or they were just crap at animating her till this point
She does the vanish semblance only done in the Red Trailer that is she vanishes leaving only a few rose petals.
@@raggarbergman I watching Red Trailer recently predicted that was chapter 10 Ruby and that's what were getting with her vanish semblance used as far as I noticed only in the Trailer. That is you swipe at her and hit air but she does not dodge she vanishes leaving a few rose petals. So at times now she will be the stoic killer many thought she be watching the Trailer.
Figures Monty nerfed her a tad from the trailer for first season.
You gotta love how concerned the cat looked when fighting ruby, it knew about the others and their powers because it saw them fight a few times but it never saw ruby fight so it was completely in the dark about her fighting style (which in all honesty feels like original ruby style with her symblance added in) and that opened the door so to say for the others to get the upper hand as well.
Me too dude because ruby she has the power of light to destroy darkness forever and ever again ✨️ ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💕 🙌 🌹💝🙏
he lunged towards her with so much confidence, but as she pushed him further and further back you could see him realize "wait, no, i can't predict her!". when he grabbed Crescent Rose, that overconfidence came rushing back only to vanish when she vanished and reappeared with Crescent Rose's gun barrel in his face. all in all, he had planned around fighting the ones who he KNEW how to fight, and when Ruby joined in, the addition of an unknown variable was enough to scatter all of his plans to the winds. Ruby and her friends had been fighting together for so long, they knew everything about each others' styles, they didn't need any fancy plan because they knew what to do instinctively. he hesitated when he realized his plans were gone, and in battle, the one who hesitates and can't make new plans on the fly, is always the one who loses. the tides of battle are chaotic and ever-shifting. the one who hesitates will be swept away by the tides and lose.
makes you sit and think about how dependent they are on one another. Ruby's fighting style along with Yang's is the most aggressive, she's the most agile easily, so losing that speed advantage really does them in
I love how dumb the cat was to forget about the effect the leaves fumes would have on neo
"Being a Team Leader isn't just a title you carry into battle, but a badge you wear constantly." Ozpin Volume 1
That's one of the most interesting quotes to me: Ozpin also had it wrong, because that quote is most likely one she completely misunderstood, one that was bearing down on her throughout the seasons, leading to her needing this season to "find herself", as it were.
What I like seeing repeated in this show is that no one person has all the answers. Ozpin was set up to be that, but the more we learn, the more we find out that he's less of a wise mentor, and more of a clever trickster who has found himself with too much responsibility to bear.
The way this reflects upon his students then, we see in the show.
Neo and “Roman’s” interaction at the end was heart wrenching. this volume was super great
it was truly a wandavision moment honestly
Feels like the end of an era. Roman and Neo were among team RWBY's original foes. They parted ways on bitterly last time... but this time Roman doesn't get a breakdown and aknowledges his death and Ruby's beliefs, all while leaving in peace. Same for Neo, who goes from mockingly bowing to her enemies to bowing to the heroes out of respect for saving her. This time Ruby doesn't fight them one last time, they simply give up fighting end admit they were wrong. I konw that it's not over... but it feels like the end.
@@nicolasbanidol2371 I think Neo will come back and join them when she truly finds herself.
Goodbye Roman, goodbye Neo. You were bad guys and all, but heck, you were stylish bad guys...
I think what they did for Neo is amazing. I never thought she should’ve been immediately redeemed, but I was also against the idea of her dying. It’s a perfect middle ground
I suspect that while Summer lied to Tai and Ruby, I don’t think she abandoned. She told Raven “if I do this right, we won’t have worry about any of it”. Maybe she tried to go after Salem directly. Could also explain why Raven is so fearful of her. She saw directly how powerful she was
If summer and raven didn’t know about Salems immortality then yeah. Summer died but raven managed to escape. But I would think surely they knew
No one in Oz's inner circle knew Salem was immortal. Just look at how Qrow reacted when he found out.
It makes sense that Raven may have seen it firsthand. That'd explain her change of heart which led her to bail on everyone.
It would fit in with the narrative. Summer's biggest failure was trying to do things on her own. She failed because she put everything on herself and paid the price for it.
@@danielwilson7193 true, but if they did go after Salem it wouldn’t make sense for raven not to tell qrow, tai or even go after ozpin
@@danielwilson7193 Qrow was Ozpins best agent, if he didn’t know then no one did.
All this time Ruby and Jaune have been struggling with the same question 'what it means to be a Hero?' they wanted to be like their Family like the Heroes in their books and they thought that meant being perfect that perfection was the only way to be a Hero. They couldn't be the prefect Heroes they felt guilt and put so much pressure on themselves that they snapped but at the end they both learned to accept and overcome their failures to not allow themselves to be defined by them.
Shame he's still a pathetic character
Two sides of a coin...
@@souleater4242564kodd i know, his base character could be so ghood, but they waste him at ever turn, any chance he has of being a character that has some value, they just destroy it. i was actually bummed that he is deeaged at the end. becuase it would hae been a good development for him, but in the next volume they will just ignore the fact he has livedfor 10-20 years alone.
@@souleater4242564kodd seems more like that's because they wasted his character than anything else
The way Ruby rotates her body, as she moves with the momentum of her scythe is beautiful. Constantly stepping forward with a relentless battle style.
Me too dude because ruby she has the power of light to destroy darkness forever and ever again ✨️ ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💕 🙌 🌹💝🙏
She reminds me of Maka Albaran from Soul Eater
I love the ending for Neo. "To find yourself".
What she did before the finale was unthinkable and scary. But all Neo wanted is ruby to feel her pain as much as how she felt her own pain after her loss and Cinder's betrayal.
Anyways, I'm glad that the writers actually took the approach of sending a message that actually mean so much for the people who were struggling.
She did that and more w/ her message. She got what she wanted and Ruby didn't apologize, but I don't know that Neo NEEDED an apology. Sure she might've stopped if Ruby did, but maybe feeling heard and torturing Ruby literally to the lowest point might have been enough for her. Revenge doesn't seem to be the first thing on her mind, it really was the only thing until she thought about team RWBY+Jaune's friendship instead.
In a way, Cinder was more dangerous than Salem previously (on season 8) because Cinder was the trigger for Ruby's grief and despair due to Penny's death, but Cinder's onslaught caused the fact that she didn't realize that finally achieve her revenge!
@@chandlerwalrath9347 it was a thing of revenge was the only thing she could think of after Roman died. Seeing Ruby back, stronger that ever (no physical change, but mentally) and embracing her friends got Neo to realise just what she really wanted.
@@animefan-ji8rd I agree, I don't think Ruby changed physically at all but she definitely got a reset or a better mental from the tree and that kind of power is gonna lead her to do great things against Salem. Recently one of her greatest assets became a weakness after taking all the hits. I hope nothing happens to take it away yk?
@@chandlerwalrath9347An apology or an explanation would have made no difference because no matter what, Torchwick is still dead and Neo still has very little left to live for, at least as her current self.
I love how Red Like Roses part 1, 2, and 3 all kinda tell Ruby's story. Part 1 introduces her and mentions some of the most important people in her life, while also shedding a little light on her grief. Part 2 goes deeper into said grief and shows her anger, plus a little insight from her mother wishing that Ruby won't end up like she did. Part 3, despite me not getting a full grasp on all the lyrics, talks about Ruby finding herself and becoming the person she always wanted to be, and finally able to be "complete". Ateast that's what I gathered from this.

FINALLY!!! Ruby can fight again. Now let’s hope they are able to keep this fighting style for the rest of the series. We haven’t seen Ruby fight even close to this since the earlier volumes.
Me too dude because ruby she has the power of light to destroy darkness forever and ever again ✨️ ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💕 🙌 🙏💝🌹
She can fight with her weapon, but I still think she has room to improve with hand-to-hand.
Now that we saw Summer moments before disaster, I’m rethinking about red like roses part 2. Summer talks about not wanting Ruby to waste her life in vain. And we now know that she most likely went to go fight Salem with Raven and never came back, so she probably meant she didn’t want Ruby to fight Salem unless she knew for a complete fact that she can kill her and walk away too. At first I thought Summer was saying she didn’t want Ruby to become a huntress at all.
“Don’t do what I did” also gets more light shed onto its meaning: ‘don’t abandon everyone you love and try to win by yourself because you will fail and achieve nothing except hurting the people you wanted to protect’
I've seen a lot of disappointment that Ruby was on this journey of self reflection and the Tree was teased at changing her, but I have to say, I love that the journey became one of acceptance, she is enough and always has been, she didn't need to find a way to be someone else, she just needed to dust herself off, and remember who she was.
And I could never speak for the creative team, but their choice of using Red Like Roses when she comes back really struck a chord with me, and makes me believe Summer's words were a stand-in for the real inspiration. It's not that Ruby is "loved, just the way she is", it's that she's "Loved, The way that Monty made her". When he made that very first trailer all by himself all those years ago, this is the girl he chose to pilot his story, and she's more than enough.
THANK YOU!
As long as this self-acceptance is the _beginning_ of her journey for herself and not the end, this is a great play.
Me too dude because ruby she has the power of light to destroy darkness forever and ever again ✨️ ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💕 🙌 🌹💝🙏
Yes ❤❤❤
Agreed 100%. I do think it felt a BIT rushed, but this whole volume was obviously under a lot of duress to even be released in the first place, and I absolutely love the final message, which is that sometimes you DONT have to change to be someone that you can love.
2:06 “This weed is trash, I don’t feel shit!”
2:13 The weed kicking in
Not sure if many people noticed, but Ruby's scythe pose is the same thing as it was in the Volume 1 intro. I never thought I'd see the day where we would see that same pose 8 volumes later in the Maya Engine. That makes this even more epic and This Will Be the Day at the end is a super nice touch.
I like how Crescent Rose is shown to be somewhat sentient, telling Ruby that it loves her wielder just as she is.
Like i said, crescent rose was basically used by her mother, it was maded believe that ruby created the scbytche but she just modified it for more advanced usage, she lost crescent rose because of 2 reasons:1 she lost her ways and 2 ruby needed to find the spark that kept her going. When she felt fear about it returning i knew full well that ruby saw a monster instead of her trusting partner until this happened her mother gave her the words she needed to hear the most and thats when crescent rose appeared cause ruby had finally found herself
I recently started watching Bleach. It felt like watching Ichigo learning Zangetsu's name. As if she was about to learn her shikai "Let the petals bloom, Cresent Rose!"
@@nicolae-alexandruluca7853in the first episode of the series it’s said that she made it herself
@@nicolae-alexandruluca7853Ruby made Crescent Rose. Ruby mentioned in episode 2 or 3 of the first volume that every student needed to make their own weapons in Signal Academy.
@@nicolae-alexandruluca7853 Crescent rose was made in HONOR of her Mother as well as a nod to Qrow's weapon, which in turn is a nod to Maria Calivera(The Grimm Reaper), but Crescent Rose didn't even exist til Ruby was at Signal Academy.
I like that ending for Neo... if this is her ending that is. She got a sort of closure. I also love that old Ruby is back. She's been out of it since the relics came into play.
I still say the it sucks and so does the rest of Season 9. Like seriously! Neo and The Cat were such An Awesome Villain Combo!
It would have been Terrific if they Got Rid of Salem and Cinder and become The New Main Villains!
And They still continue with the F@#£ing Misandric Feminist Narratives and Agendas! Alyx was the One Who Betrayed Jaune Damnit!
I personally hope she comes back because I personally like that her biggest reason for "being evil" basically boils down to having a close bond with a criminal. I don't think it inherently means she's a bad person, and if I remember correctly Monty's wife Sheena helped make the character so I hope she sticks around since, you know, it's not like Monty and Sheena can help anymore.

This final episode was so bone chilling, I loved ruby's entrance and Romans talk with Neo. "I'm not real." what a beautiful scene
Normally, when it comes to a protagonist of a show, you don't really worry for them because they're just... always going to be around to proceed the plot, but with this volume, I was surprised with how attached I've become to Ruby. When the show insinuated the idea of going forward without Ruby (her original self), for the first time ever, I was so worried for her. But I was all too happy when she chose to come back as herself, but stronger. I literally cheered and was so glad to have her again.
She's the same girl we all met in Volume 1, but now more than that, and one we can't imagine the show without.
Couldn't put it into better words

Well I want to believe she never came back stronger but came back just the way she left with one slight difference, she regained confidence in her ability to be a huntress and her hope to find a way to stop Salem.
Idk I feel she barley developed imo

Starting at 4:46 it just so good. They choreograph more like the old days and so it feels like she is back.
It's funny because until 4:55 he still thinks he has the upper hand, he trys to grab her at 4:53 and then realized she's untouchable.
Anyone else agrees that this whole Volume has been an emotional rollercoaster?
Agreed
Definitely.
one of the best for me
quite LITERALLY some times
I liked that Summer was the key to this. Ruby modeled so much of what a "perfect hero" is off her, those stories she read her only to learn even Summer wasn't perfect. She lied, she was human. You'll never be perfect, and that's okay because who you are even if you think you've done nothing but make mistakes can be good enough to make a difference.
The Red Roses 3 OST and team fight was simply a delight. God I am on such a feel good high from this, I hope we get a Volume 10 confirmation soon cause I desire more of this~!

The depression volumes over stay their welcome and were not good. I hope we are finally moving away from that and bringing the pedal to the metal that I miss back.

@@Ray-ko1po yeah they definitely needed to happen but they went too far in on having the protagonists just get constantly beaten down every single volume. I personally felt that, as dark and intense as this volume got, it actually resulted in some closure that we've been waiting for since Volume 4 and these characters can now finally move on and grow the way they were meant to. Im actually kinda excited for more RWBY for the first time in a LONG time.
I might actually start watching RWBY again if they keep THIS up.
Seriously the last couple of Volumes was pretty much the writers torturing a group of teenagers.
That being said, I'm probably gonna have to bite the bullet and go for the DVD option because I'm not searching the web for a Yo Ho Site that isn't gonna cause me problems, and my internet is not gonna have the patience to deal with RT's site.

I haven't watched the show in a long time, but I seem to remember that she always used to fight like that in the early volumes, right?
has anyone else noticed that at 2:12 when the screen flashes it's not just a random white flash, it's both the cat's and neo's faces appearing for a split second?? that's such a small detail that they totally didn't need to take the time to add, but you can *really* tell the animators truly cared about making a great volume

Ruby has finally accepted that she will be enough to face whatever challenge that comes after the Ever After. She is back to being the young girl who is willing to see things half-full, if being a bit more mature.
But I'm still wondering; she and Jaune have both faced and conquered their doubts and fears like Ren did in season 8. Will their Semblances evolve now like his did? I would really like to see that!
Neo's scene is really heartbreaking. No one, nowhere to go back to, only her memories and imagination to keep her going, but even that has its limits. I really thought that she was going to jump and let herself die on that view of the pit next to her, giving up with regrets. But the way she just saluted them, and let herself fall down slowly with that same elegance she always kept since her younger years really made me tear up a bit.
I really hope this is the occasion for her to come to conclusions, and find other ways to enjoy the freedom she yearned for, but in a different, less self-destructive way from what she always did as "Neo".
Later, Vanille...
You know she's older than cinder right? Roman had plenty of time to help her out of her Yandere attack shorty mind set.
Ruby's found balance in herself. Even if there are doubts and fears in her, she's no longer held back by them by having the resolve to see things through to the end. And we finally got to see Team RWBY finally fight in unison that drew out their potential.

@@JohnMasterCheif If she changed, then she really did. But she didn’t.
5:00 I just realized, this was the first time the cat saw Ruby actually fighting. He had seen her scrambling, panicking, wildly lashing out, but never in a serious fight trying with all her skill for one goal - the utter annihilation of her opponent. Cat can fight the rest because he's spent the whole season watching them fight and picked apart their styles (don't get me started on the years he watched Jaune). When Ruby joins, suddenly he can't fight any more. Why? Is it because Ruby alone is that much better? Possibly, but it's far more likely it's because of a combination of 2 factors - 1. he hasn't seen Ruby fight, and 2. the rest of RWBY now change their tactics and fighting styles from defensive to offensive, in coordination with Ruby - ALL WITHOUT SAYING A WORD. They trusted in Ruby so much that Ruby was able to set a strategy and execute it flawlessly with them. They don't second guess her choices, Weiss even accepts her role as less "beat the cat over the head" and more "make sure the others can beat the cat over the head more".
For an example of 1, Ruby immediately has Cat on the back foot after the counter attack, and surprised the shit out of him even when she did almost get grabbed.
For an example of 2, just look at 5:07. All 4 of RWBY surround Cat, and they share a look. That right there is the plan being settled. That single instant. I think it's like 4 frames in total.
someone better give us VOL 10 more then ever now.
This was a sad, yet fitting end for Neo. And who knows? She may find herself and find a new purpose for herself before the end of the series.
Not gonna lie, her showing up during the final fight to help the good guys would be some next level epicness.
I want her to have another rematch with Cinder, now that her semblance has evolved.
@@montyl.8232 imagine if Cinder is bearing down on Ruby and Neo shows up at the nick of time. We’ve seen that the tree can show glimpses of the past that can change perspectives after all, so Neo may be shown what had happened to Torchwick, and that Ruby had a right to defend herself. Plus, his butt got eaten by a Grimm, not killed by Ruby. So Neo may want to continue as herself, but with the new purpose of fixing her mistakes and such, similar to Alex. Alex is somewhat shown to parallel both Ruby and Neo at points in the opening, and it fits thematically, at least from what I’ve seen.
I see her bitch slapping Cinder with her umbrella
@@jaimeeking8584 YES!
@@amythestmuse22 remember the tree's words:
It's not about where, but "when" you are needed most.
4:27 Ruby is… BACK!!! What an amazing finale, and the important lesson for Ruby is not to be perfect or like her mother of The Hero of The Story, but to be just herself! Just like Naruto finding his own ninja way!
Not just ruby..... The Grim reaper
Like I literally said the same thing about Naruto.
I still say the it sucks and so does the rest of Season 9. Like seriously! Neo and The Cat were such An Awesome Villain Combo!
It would have been Terrific if they Got Rid of Salem and Cinder and become The New Main Villains!
And They still continue with the F@#£ing Misandric Feminist Narratives and Agendas! Alyx was the One Who Betrayed Jaune Damnit!

This moment when Ruby came out of the tree was amazing, and the fight scene was awesome, and then little came back, which is cool
Me too girl because ruby she has the power of light to destroy darkness forever and ever again ✨️ ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💕 🙌 🙏💝🌹
dawg i cried so much this volume. this episode especially. like holy shit. Summer Rose, Ruby's self reflection, her scythe/mother telling her that she is loved, Red Like Roses playing when she's coming back, the breakout animation (Monty we miss you more than words could ever relay) Little ascending, being given Juniper, The tree explaining everything, and then Jaune getting de-aged but still keeping the white streaks in his hair, (the weiss giggle when he realizes what he's always sounded like) yeah lets just say this volume was much needed.
The ending warms my heart... T-T
Neo is now MARY POPPINS Y'ALL
Neo’s always been Mary Poppins though.
I understood that reference 😏
A mix of The Mad Hatter and Mary Poppins just to say Happy (re)Birthday to Ruby with a spoon full of sugar!!! (If u get my references)
Speaking of the refence that come out soon in may
HEELLL YEESSSS!!!!! Ruby Rose is back in town! Not only is she her good old self again, she's better than ever! With a stronger spirit, a stronger resolve and a stronger heart! A fitting end for a monster in cat's clothing. After what he did to Aylx, put Ruby through hell and possessed Neo, he deserved no better. As for Neo herself, I used to dislike her, but I came to dislike the Cat even more following ep 8 (plus he reminds me of Tyrian, my very least fav Rwby character), and now I feel a little happy for her. Letting go of Roman, making peace with Ruby and her friends, and letting the Tree take her to move on and become something better.
"Lost" is the best word to describe Neo. Torchwick was the one person she knew she could follow, regardless on good or evil. His death left her without direction...She was mad at Ruby at first, because she thought that was the right person to be mad at, even though she knew deep down that wasn't the right choice. She followed Salem until that team essentially forgot about her. She can't "join the group" because there is a LOT of history there and she doesn't fully believe in them, yet at least. So that just leaves...waiting...
I would like to think she has become, in a sense, the new Curious Cat...

That was actually a heartwarming end to Roman and Neo's arcs
They at least got to say goodbye and Neo finally got her closure, now she just needs to find herself through the tree's rebirth process whether that means she will return in a new form or not we'll have to wait and see. Either way it's a nice way to say goodbye to two of RWBY's beginning baddies.
@@blackdemonknight mad hatter neo incoming
It’s a bit sadder when you realize the VA of Roman Billy Kametz, passed away last year. You might recognize him as the Shield Hero or Naofumi
While the show isn’t perfect, Volume 9 years was honestly great and one of my favorite volumes, if not my number 1 fav because of Ruby and gang actually BEING team RWBY. It has such interesting and bizarre concepts that work, it’s so amazing. I’m genuinely looking forward to Volume 10 now.
After Rooster Teeth announced they were closing up shop today, I had to come back to this seen. I hope that this girl is enough. I hope RWBY gets picked up by Crunchyroll or something and is allowed to continue. There is so many plot threads left unresolved!
i know most people find the series underwelming after season 3, but i hope that if someone picks rwby up they at least make a final season to close it before making a reboot, it would take way too long to get to this point again.
@@gab4198 If we even get here at all. A reboot could take things in a completely different direction, or follow different characters than team RWBY.
5:02 The callback to the Red trailer made me squee so hard. Honestly this Volume is easily in my Top Three. In my personal opinion, a return to form and a reset/leap in character development. I need the soundtrack immediately. I cannot wait for the next volume. Also, I love how Neo is looking for a reset to herself, she's been grieving and took her pain out on the one she felt caused her the most grief. Curious if this is the Death of Neo and the Rebirth of Trivia Vanille.
Did you notice the dodge before at 4:53? (same one from the trailer) only for her to turn around and keep pressing her attack. I love that from the get go she on the attack for the whole fight.
That ultimate move they did honestly looked like a limit break animation!
Omg that combo where Weiss puts everyone inside an arena of glyphs.... Can we call that THE THUNDERDOME bc wow they were ready to RUMBLE 😂😂
Why not the ice dome
Wasn't that weiss ice palace?

The Red like Roses made me scream
I don’t care what anyone says about this show. This is so damn good. It’s not perfect, but it doesn’t have to be. Just like Ruby herself.
Also I think Ruby should’ve given Neo the apology then. Something like “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean for what happen to Torchwick to happen. If anything, it was Cinder’s fault.” And then Neo finally sets her sights on Cinder permanently. Like she always should have.
This has genuinely been one of the best volumes in a long time, I really think taking the extra time they gave themselves was absolutely needed to make such a great volume!
That feeling when you understand that Neo is using her Roman Illusion to vocalise her thoughts, that She wishes she could be like RWBY and Jaune, and that there is nothing more for her to do
What a finale of a volume. Although I will admit, before Neopolitan descended down that hole, I was honestly hoping that Ruby would have one last conversation with her.
Saying something along the lines of Ruby forgiving Neo even after everything she did to Ruby. Ruby asking Neo to join them. Neo refusing due to not being able to forgive herself. And Ruby responding by saying that if Neo manages to find herself, learn to forgive herself, and is ready to leave the Ever After, Ruby will be there waiting for her to leave the Ever After.
Still though I can't deny the way they ended the Ruby/Neo rival. Not by killing off Neo or a complete redemption, but by developing a form of mutual understanding.
No I think it's better Ruby chose not too, recognizing that Neo has crossed a line that can never be forgiven and it would take more than an apology to fix it. It shows she now has limits to her paitence for people and that's a good thing.
@@Cloud-dt6xb I agree with this, I don't think Ruby should forgive Neo for literally using clones of her dead loved ones to pressure her into "suicide". At least not without development towards forgiveness first.
I think Ruby definitely feels a little sad for Neo with the way she looks back at her twice and asks the blacksmith about her, but I don’t think that means Ruby forgave her for everything. Even if her pushing to her ultimately helped Ruby it was still traumatic and messed up. That said I think if Ruby is probably glad Neo ascends to find herself as she obviously knows the feeling of being lost. Clearly fulfilling her revenge didn’t make Neo feel anything but empty. If she were to come back ascended helping them I think they might give her a chance but for now they were content to let Neo choose to stay in the Ever After. One less problem to deal with.
@@theredeft5319 Right well speaking from experience I know that the first thing you gotta do to heal from something like this is start setting up boundaries that'll help keep you from getting that bad again. In Ruby's case it's knowing when someone can be helped and when it's better for her health not to. What that moment did was establish Ruby's set that boundary and she's already learning from her time in the Ever After.
6:17 Yeah I thought they'll talk
I haven’t watched since season 6 but it’s nice that the rwby team finally figured out (or hired people who figured out) how to animate more than one person blindly swinging a blade at a time
Can't wait to see more Crescent Rose and Ruby, actually being swift with the movements like that. Hopefully CRWBY can pull that off again.
Oh gosh I cried when crescent rose glowed and it figuratively said in summer's voice i love you just the way you are. The blacksmith is best therapy mom too. Gosh ❤❤❤

The Cat being eaten by the Jabberwockers may have been brutal, but can you really say he didn't deserve it after what he's done?
at the same time i also understand and feel for the cat
it was helpfull, it did the job its creator gave it, to "Fix what is broken", but it was given curiousity by the Gods, the same curiosity that drove them to be uncontainable by the ever after, but he wasnt given the chance to leave, to find new things to learn to be curios about. but most of all, till that point he also didnt know betrayel. Because noone in the ever after betrays anyone(from what we see at least)
Then Alyx comes along and promises him to go to a world unknown to him, the world(as he likely deduced himself) his creators left for. a new world ot be curios about to learn about.. But then at the final step, when he was finally able to grasp this new sense of curiosity.. he was betrayed for the first time in his existance most likely.
You know, I think this is a “Curiosity killed the cat” scenario.
The cat, being curious as to why he was left behind by his makers, possesses Neo to get into Remnant to sate that curiosity. This, as we know, fails.
When Neo has recovered from the possession (and the leaf smoke), she kills the cat for possessing her. Thus, the cat’s curiosity lead to its death.
As for why I’m explaining it; I find it easier to assume that anyone who reads the post doesn’t understand what I’m talking about.
I kinda feel bad for him honestly, he did get kinda fucked over like everybody else, also on a side note can’t the tree technically kill the brothers?
@@BeekoBaggins maybe but it's implied that tree doesn't actually kill anyone it only creates and the people in the Ever After don't die there are just reborn the only exception to this rule is the Jabber Wocker which was created by the Brother of Darkness to end the cycle of reincarnation
@@BeekoBaggins I also felt bad for the Cat neither tho he deserved it because I was not expecting him to die like that in such a brutal way and my heart sank when that happened
“I know. I’m not real.”
That line hurts worse when this was Billy Kametz last role, and he passed away before this came out.
This finale was great. Seeing Ruby accepting the fact that she's neither enough or needing to be someone else after everything felt like it lifted the world off her shoulders. And I must say, hearing Red Like Roses again really brought back lots of nostalgic feelings and remember that Ruby from long ago, where she could still fight anything and still be able to smile in the face of danger? It has been so long that she's been fighting without one, out of fear of losing another ally, or a friend, or failure of protecting someone again. She was constantly fighting with fear in mind and I'm glad that she was able to smile again even in the face of danger even if it took several volumes.
5:24 ALL OUT ATTACK
I wish I knew how to edit to make that kind of video.
"WHOA FOR REAL?!"
THAT WAS SO EPIC BRO!!!!
RIP Monty, your legacy still lives on.
except its not. since they adapted his original plotline the story started going to shit. and now they dont even have enough funds to keep it going. the rest of the story wont start production until they fill their wallets.
Should have died with him
This is really what Ruby needed just time to vent and someone to tell her she's enough. It was enough to keep her moving forward long enough to see that her friends are there for her and that her choices have led to some good things happening
5:00 he's just buffering
That was good. That song was amazing. And, at least Neo's not dead.
Yeah but i hope she will returns to remnat to becomen something better
@@josecarlossidancona960 Who knows if we'll see Neo again in her new form, but compared to Adam and Ironwood, she's finally come to terms with her pain and is at peace.
And even though it's just an illusion, at least Roman respects Neo's decision and he's happy for her, as if he actually encouraged Neo's happiness.
@@93SuperSonic Adam and Ironwood could have changed but couldn’t. Adam wanted his kind to be treated equally but went about it the wrong way. Ironwood wanted to protect people and stop Salem but due to his fear it caused him to do methods that caused a divide. Neo is finally coming to terms with herself and needs time to finally accept herself.
@@TheToaprimezilla Yeah and even though Neo's done awful things, she can redeem herself in her new life. The fact she took out the Cat and parted ways with Ruby on amicable terms (Neo bowing out) showed she was able to let go compared to Adam and not let the darkness could her judgement anymore like Ironwood.
I'm sure Roman would want her to be happy if her illusion of him is any indication.
@@93SuperSonic indeed and it makes me happy that she’s willing to become better and redeem herself. If things had been different, Adam would have seen that humans can give him a kind and gentle hand to him and probably still be alive and protect both humans and Faunus. And Ironwood would of have accepted that nothing can be done with might and learn to listen to others and know his methods aren’t always the best then Atlas wouldn’t have fallen and Clover, Vine and Penny would still be alive. Learning from failures is the best way to grow.
I really wish the team talked things out once the got back together, or at least share apologies with one another.
I feel like that'll be left to next volume, whenever that happens. Don't exactly have time to talk about anything in the middle of a fight, you know.
@@grumpyfroggy8247 definitely

I love how Illusion Roman kinda became her voice in this world. A coping mechanism she could use to hear her thoughts from her previous Roman.
The Ruby fighting sequence is leagues above anything we’ve encountered before. The complexity behind how she uses her scythe is truly beautiful and something I’ve never witnessed before in ANY animation. Incredible work.
as someone else in the comments said, and i'm paraphrasing it here, its almost like how she fought/moved in the much earlier volumes
@@jeremybk54 I think it will give the animators a plausible deniability in retrospect when the show ends, as an aristic story-telling choice for showing Ruby' character development.
That would be the biggest ass-pull in the history of animation. However, it would work.
"The complexity behind how she uses her scythe is truly beautiful and something I’ve never witnessed before in ANY animation"
lol, Just watch the Red Trailer.
Mmmm no.
It’s more a return to earlier days.
Red Trailer mostly.
Especially since it’s capped off with the next part of the song that started it off.
I hope the animations stay on par or succeed these. this was such a great sequence!
6:30 Neo needed to let him go. She needed to move on.
For some reason all I can think of is the quote "don't be sad because it's over, be happy it happened" (knowing me I probably butchered the quote)
@@Eugene_Black No you got the quote right. but in neo's case it was all she had.

1:58 Reconised that laugh instantly, Robbie Daymond, voice of Goro Akechi
Robbie Daymen Preformed MASTERFUL as the curious cat, gosh I hope this guy makes his mark on the world
Honestly, this whole moment was incredibly well executed. It was always about feeling enough, about being at peace with who you are as a person. Ruby sorely needed to hear, particularly from herself, that she WAS enough, that she was doing great even, and that it's ok to not be perfect. A lesson that's often so hard to get for most people well until adulthood. And to hear Red Like Roses as she emerged was a beautiful touch; a song that touches upon who Ruby is was the cherry on top.
"I love you just the way you are." - Because you never have to be anything other than you.
7:07 - "I'm Mary Poppins, y'all."
Guess she had to leave us with one more fancy parting. I always hated her... but she made me laugh!

People can keep on their rwby hate goggles on all they want. This volume was a breath of fresh air. Ruby finding herself. Diving deep into the shows fairy tale vibe, Neo having her moments. DIVING DEEPER INTO THE BROTHERS LORE?! And now questions that need to be answers surrounding summer rose. Phenomenal, even feels like the fight choreography is coming back to its roots.
I call them Chronic Complainers. There’ll always be someone who hates what’s happening, and they’ll always speak up about it.
The only real problem I have with the Volume is more a problem with the whole series and the fact I personally didn't feel like Bumblebee was handled well. They felt off(also them immediately going to the tree in 9 did feel abit rushed)
Honestly I gotta agree with Caleb. Things felt a tad rushed, and frankly Bumblebee, how that was executed, just didn't sit right. Glad to see we're upping the quality of fights though. saving the best for last eh rooster teeth?
here's the thing, I love this volume. but the writing.... I just can't help but feel like they took the "safe route" with every decision they made in this volume. all the way into ruby's big moment, choosing to have a "team coming together because ruby finally understands she doesn't need to be depressed" instead of an impactful heart string jerking hype moment where she truly emulates her introduction trailer. mysterious, majestic, and blindingly fast with her semblance and crescent rose. saving her friends who nearly died to protect her knowing full well she may never be the ruby they once loved. that would have been more impactful than a "team rwby back in action" scene. because we weren't concerned with how everyone was doing, we were worried about ruby, and had a fear she would make a horrible mistake just to feel like she deserved to be loved.
