[RWBY/Blake Belladonna-animatic/AMV]Anti-Hero

[@CrimsonXE]

The references to the canon DC comics via the ring and bottlecap, the knowing that Blake wrongfully really does blame herself for all the hurt cause to those around her, and seeing herself as the problem even though she isn't at all. She deserves the world and its part of why any time I see people take shots at her it makes my blood boil. She's an amazing and flawed character. Just glad she found her sunny dragon to pierce the dark clouds so that she can be happy.

[@colt1903]

So what's the deal with the ring and the bottle cap?

[@CrimsonXE]

@@colt1903 So basically during Beacon era Blake and Yang went to a club together on a not-a-date-date where they each get a bottle and naturally a bottle cap from them which Blake holds onto to serve as a memory of that time; which Blake holds onto. FF to v4-5 time after everything went on at the Fall of Beacon, Yang being separated from her, Blake being VERY depressed, and her mind going to Yang & the mix of nightmare of & guilt about Adam. She talks with her mom about a faunus folklore of a faunus princess who was in love with a human noble where the princess gave him a ring from carved from a seashell as a symbol of her love as he went off to battle while Kali alludes to Yang (after a chapter before that ended with Yang thinking how she wanted to write a story together with Blake during her rehabilitation arc). Blake and Kali catch a big fish directly afterwards and cook it, then while going to eat it Blake finds a bottle cap looking section within the food. She brushes it off expecting it to be the bottle cap, but instead its a ring and she says "the one....that came back.". Meanwhile a chapter or two later Yang finds a bottle cap on a sea shore; while Blake is shown wearing the ring.

@@CrimsonXE Huh... Cute. Also kinda depressing cuz damn that's the kind of shipping fuel that needs to be in the show instead of supplemental content like the comics and what not that have questionable canonicity at best. Hopefully if or when VIZ reboots the show we get moments like that actually included in the show itself. I wanna like Bumblebee as a canon ship, but as things stand it just doesn't hit for me. RT fumbled it too much. Should rename the shit RT gave us to Fumblebee instead. Meanwhile the fanfic authors write that good shit for us, that's where the Real Bumblebee comes from. 😂

[@CrimsonXE]

@@colt1903 Um no its not because its side things not relevant to the main story happening. Supplemental content is supposed to be for elaborating on things the main story is too busy for. Also there is no questionable canonicity, its been directly stated that the v4-5 comics ARE CANON. Um no the fuck they aren't going to reboot shit. One doesn't buy and keep involved original creatives like Kerry of an IP to not continue it; nor does the FNDM at large want that shit; which Viz is well damn aware of. I don't really give a rat's ass if it "hits for you", that's a YOU problem not a show problem. Many of us within the LGBT+ bracket LOVE BB and would tell ones like you to fuck off. While fanfic writers are fine and good, they're just that FANFIC writers that are in it for one thing without carrying on the core story or maintaining a natural progression & non-making BB the central focus of the story. Not even going into ones that deviate away from characterization to facilitate that. The scene given to BB in v9 easily is better than anything in fanworks period in general and in terms of it actually being canon.

THE WORK PUT INTO THIS GODDAMN??!!! I wanna eat it

[@smash_dash8957]

It's awesome you did really capture Blake struggle and her realisiation that her teammates are always gonna be there for her especially Yang. I would love to see more proyects like this in the future!

[@goldenthorn5188]

The references to the DC comics are so clever! Also I LOVE YOUR ART STYLE this song is very fitting for Blake!!

[@blueberry-the-wolf6095]

Subscribed cause this is amazing!! Haven’t watched RWBY after V4 I think but this is just so well done and definitely a fitting song for Blake Belladona!! The one with Blake sinking in water is my favorite cause it’s just so filled with emotion and a perfect visual to show how low she thinks of herself.

[@theavocadoscientist7979]

RWBYS BACK!COMING HERE TO CELEBRATE

[@officialrocketanimates]

LOVE seeing blake belladonna appreciation!! Fantastic progression and exploration of her arc and YES as others mentioned those sweet sweet DC comics references!!!

[@senshisilence941]

I don't tend to comment like ever but I saw this and was instantly in love with it. Blake is by far my favorite character in RWBY and you explained her perfectly with both the song and animatic. I love the addition of the DC comics. I've watched a lot of Blake AMVs and this one has instantly become my favorite above all others. I literally don't think there are words to describe how much I love this. I will be re-watching it so many times I can tell because again its done so perfectly. I love Blake and you showed off her flaws and growth so neatly and I just AHHHHHH. 1billion out of 10!

[@SchRibbit]

I’m so emotional 😭😭😭 love it, especially the part with “tale as old as time” which I never listened to this song so it was an amazing connection lol!! Also, especially the “in the problem, it’s me” lines are so fitting for her 💔

[@Yxngxai]

YOU ARE SO TALENTED!!! I always look forward to your animatics, this is amazing ❤❤

[@rubidimum]

I LOVE THIS ITS SO BEAUTIFUL! your art is so inspirational. I love all the details, like the allusion with the rose, and the sequence that's black with white lineart. and the song definitely suits her.

[@MorganaAurelia]

LOVED.THIS. WOW Saw this linked on tumblr and I'm so glad that I did!!!!! WONDERFUL work on this- it must have taken so much time, but you didnt skimp on ANY of these frames ❤❤❤ You went so hard giving our girl Blake the attention she deserves!!!!

[@TWILIGHTMOVIESFOREVER]

She's mine too

[@SleeplessRonin]

I'll stare directly at my sunny little dragon, but never in the mirror. Loved it. One of my favorite Swift songs - if not my favorite. Excellent, well done. I'm subscribing - I know from experience how hard those are to get for small channels.

This song is so Blake coded.

[@AriSan960]

Omg this is really cool ❤

[@naruokami1]

Dude I just realized the red of the blood of Yang and Blake's wounds at the end of vol.3 could represent the red string of fate! When Blake was holding onto Yang after the battle with one hand, and the other hand on her own wound, it came to me! Call me crazy, but I think even that was foreshadowing that they'd end up together.💛🖤

[@colt1903]

Well, if you insist... "YOU ARE CRAZY, WOMAN!!!" Extra points if you know what that's a reference to. 😂

[@naruokami1]

​@colt1903 lol love it! Probably a lot of people have said that in movies, but I always think of the first Puss in Boots movie 😹

who's the blond lady with the sword?

[@LtCourier]

From the comics

[@benhramiak8781]

@LtCourier there's norse people? Or she a bandit?

[@CrimsonXE]

@@benhramiak8781 I mean there's not actually Norse people cause that place doesn't exist in Remnant and she's not a bandit. She's a faunus with that has a history with Blake.

[@benhramiak8781]

does a better job than the actual show

[@CrimsonXE]

Except that all this does is take what the show + comics did and put them into a vid AFTER the fact. Like yes its great but that isn't a negative on the show, which did plenty. This has the benefit of being solely about Blake, not having to balance between her, Ruby, Weiss, and Yang. Or trying to fill in the gaps between beats, because its a fan work; the show has to do all of that.

[@AwCrows81]

in Monty's story i don't know where Monty got that Kristy and Lisa knew coco, coco Salem is the handler of a family curse or cauldron binders the whole story has them as buddies at best it was 3rd party. coco left in a jeep 6 years ago after checking in up here.......... she gets kicked in and out of her cauldron companies and does criminal immigrations trying to mimic millionaire sons and daughters between nations sometimes gets busted on bust of the scam. - i'm not griping i got roasted into a cherub at home after work......... wish that sparky shitty would return to my mind so i can go roll around in the yard or chase a parts bin again Dying is peaceful resurrecting hurts HORRIBLE. my prayer changes though, from the dust of the earth to the beam of the Khufu grenade may you be made whole. me and COCO both are tired of the Dunce cradle and Christian accusations We just can't out run the deceiver for shit we are not the white picket fence on a diver nor are we smiling for you Whore callers Maintain and present....... at task and picket fence expectations it's light a roach and vegetate. we let things to go to shit.
