RWBY 9x06 "Confessions Within Cumulonimbus Clouds" - reaction & review

[@sqxbarto9229]

"They hurt us, and then they gave us a present" - so the pain comes again :D The cat even said at one point "The others were more interesting" or something like that. The cat has a way with words, that's for sure :)

Note Lewis Is a reference to Lewis Carrol the author of alice in wonderland

I love the timing of aged Jaune appearing in the intro right as you're talking about him not being there.

[@omegashark1837]

I still couldn’t believe it when the build up started happening. Feels surreal now after all this time.

[@theburningruler7279]

23:04 How is she imitating me so well?

[@pyromite38]

What makes Jaune even more tragic is that now he has most likely spent more of his life in the Ever After than in Remnant.

[@WalterWhite-jz7ct]

"Feels like i've been waiting forever for that" Jaune is the Fanbase (If you are on the side that belives they hadn't planed this, listen to the OST for V4 ....)

[@BGTitanAvatar]

The fact that when Ruby passes the waterfall her reflection is Summer. We’re getting so much Summer bits and pieces! We have to actually get a huge Summer thing in the last four episodes, right? That little musical cue from the last scene of V8 when Weiss is looking at Atlas falling. Lewis seems to be a reference to the author of Alice in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll. “I couldn’t even be the make believe hero.” Yikes. Been waiting years for this moment. Even a week later, I’m still reeling and crying from the confession. I’m still so giddy and happy every time I think about it or watch this scene and it’s crazy that we’re finally here. These two have been through so much and it’s just… this confession was so sweet and wonderful. Eric Reacts put it best I think: “They found their happiness in Ever After.” You probably know this by now, but the song playing during the confession is called Worthy and Casey said it’s a BMBLB pt 2. The wins keep coming. Ruby not wanting to take Crescent Rose back is definitely a metaphor for Ruby denying herself. After Ruby said in V1 that weapons were an extension of them. There’s also a neat parallel with Yang when Tai presented her with her new prosthetic and Yang didn’t want/wasn’t ready for it at first.

😆 I've been waiting to see your reaction to this chapter 👍

[@jeffreysmith236]

I know, that is my first thought every Saturday.

[@vazak11]

The confession scene set a ew standard for romance in my mind, it was so triumphant and loving and beautiful! I would keep in mind tat from Alyx's perspective Jaune would likely be pretty damn freaky, this strange guy who knows way too much about her, who tries to micromanage her escape from this alien realm, there's a lot we didn't see.

[@Scaring-Crows]

Also the only other person from her world but from the future

[@samuelclayhills3298]

Thats a pretty low standard my guy.

[@encyclochameleon6751]

So many people seemed to miss a small detail. The liquid mirrors seem to show whats on a persons mind. Right after the “how can the story be real and not real” line Ruby walks in front of one. Her reflection is not herself

[@hansolav5924]

all the flowers make me think of 'their' song. :P 'there's a garden...'

[@MinisterEvil]

25:07 What everyone is thinking at that moment: Yang and Blake: "Let's start taking our clothes off before... oh... nevermind." Juniper: "DAAAAAAAAMN!" Weiss: "They're actually doing it and it's beautiful and I missed the build-up thanks to that stupid cat." Also Weiss: "You and I better be next, Ruby." Ruby: "Damnit, I just lost that bet with Nora." Little: "Is the blonde girl a mouse or why is the cat girl eating her?" Jaune: Pretty much 85% of the fandom.

[@SolusArmatura]

I want to see the prescription for the drugs you're taking if you think Weiss and Ruby are going to hook up. 🤣

[@morlock2012]

Heh, it's funny. In an earlier chapter Weiss says something like: "Alix was just trying to survive. Those old stories are so simplistic". I thought that was a bit of a thoughtless answer, and now it sounds like she wasn't just the innocent protagonist. Looking forward to seeing where they go with it, but they better get a move on. I don't think Jaune is going to get his youth back. Learning to live with your scars has been a recurring motif, not least in the hallucinations from the herbalist. On the upside, Ren and Nora get a father figure?

[@Becca11389]

i've been waiting 7 years for this episode ;~;

YES! I have been waiting a week for this moment, GO BEES🎉🎉🎉🎉

I wanna know what sun will think when he finds out he missed his chance with Blake😂😂😂😂 But Honestly he will probably just be a best friend

[@SandyTheDesertFox]

I've been SO excited to see your reaction! ❤

[@nicog_99]

16:53 am i seeing things or is that summer in the mirror 🤔

[@jakeblitzcoffie4859]

It was.

[@billa3785]

You know there are four relics right, made by the two brothers. Jin and Ambrious made by the brother of light, and two made by the brother of dark. Notice the color scheme of the cat, and that the Beacon relic is considered safe according to Ozpin? I don't think ever after would be a story if there was no point to it other than Ruby's PTSD and Blake and Yang's kiss.

[@jeffreysmith236]

as best as we can tell, it was entirely light's idea to send Ozma back, and light produced and placed all the relics. If dark participated, to what degree is completely unknown and behind the scenes.

[@billa3785]

@@jeffreysmith236 With the introduction of new lore, the brothers and the cats creation. It kind of pincushions most of my statement. Hopefully we will get a grander picture in V10. I do hope team RWBY or at least Ruby will get to converse or interact with the brothers in some fashion at some point.

[@69gamer06]

Ozpin will probably end up being extremely worried when Ruby and the other girls tell him about their adventures in the never after

[@billa3785]

@@69gamer06 in the least, he will question his beliefs of what he felt he knew. Unless Ruby and gang choose to give him a vanilla version like they did with Ironwood in previous Volumes. I sure do hope we will not have the kind of wait we had to get V9.

[@AnimeAndrew1983]

What is the name of this song ?

[@MelissaHime]

I'm not sure of the name! You can probably find it on the vol 9 soundtrack!

[@AnimeAndrew1983]

@@MelissaHime - Now where do i find that my friend. Please help a dumb person like me Melissa.

[@RectPropagation]

The brother being named after Lewis Carroll has me convinced that _he's_ the one that made it out and wrote the story, not Alex.

[@jennamurdock8716]

Oooooooh I've been wondering about this too, but then where/who would Alex be now?

[@RectPropagation]

@@jennamurdock8716 I honestly can't come up with a good guess for that so my only theory now is that she isn't someone we've seen or somewhere (specific) they've been.

[@MsAlexisLaree]

Can we talk about how Yang has known about Blake’s cat ears for 2 years ish and she is just now calling them cute 😂

[@sidous471]

I paused on Yang and Blake on the bridge like five different times because I couldn’t… handle it 😶😳 /pos

[@make756perday]

"Don't raise your voice, improve your argument." -

[@RG-gd3zu]

How do we create conditions for a declaration of love between Yang and Blake? Put a gun to their head and force them to confess. Too cruel. Then let it be a magical bridge between them where they should make a confession as a step towards each other. It is the same. No. It's a deep metaphor.

[@samuelclayhills3298]

Took them 10 years to ponder over this.

[@khairoohsem6327]

Yeah, Weiss into older. When, I'm mean older. I'm mean middle 40 years old and if Ice Queendom is canon. Weiss really adore his granpa more than we think.

[@omegashark1837]

Her VA clarified that she was attracted to Jaune’s mental maturity.

[@Kaylakaze]

"They hurt us, and then they gave us a present" At best, that's called BDSM.

[@Kaylakaze]

I think the biggest issue I have with Bumblebee here is that it now makes 3 out of the 4 main partner pairings that are romantically involved. You've got Jaune and Pyrrha, Ren and Nora, and now Blake and Yang. Once Ruby's fixed and Weiss has some time to relax, how are they going to feel being the odd ones out, especially since it still doesn't even really feel like their friendship has recovered from their separation after volume 3?

[@gohanmoreno7]

Calm down Weiss, your Daddy~ issues are showing off ¬u¬

[@joshualeahy2162]

Her papi problems ^v0

[@samuelclayhills3298]

10 years they have been mulling over a way to get the definition of a mid ship to be oficial and the best they came upp with was literaly building a brige to connect them. This is unironicaly something Kojima would write but this "show" hasn't earned the pass for such pretentious writing. Stay classy guys.
