RWBY Volume 7 Chapter 9 Review! So Much For Weiss' Arc, More Like Nothing But Terrible Politics...

[@greyworld6242]

That rose garden moment felt out of nowhere. Honestly all the problems were wrapped up to damn quickly. The Faunus plot line is totally dead at this point.

[@dracolordnick6779]

@Grey World It was a very forced scene, but when it comes to RWBY nowadays ship baiting is one of the most important things to the writers besides political agenda. Each problem was rushed, Weiss' Arc should've been this entire volume, but rather RT focused on their politics rather than trying to focus on Weiss and her character development. Also now that Jacques is gone Faunus Discrimination doesn't even matter at all, it's nothing but an afterthought to RT and they won't bring it back up. So RT just basically threw out the entire plot of Faunus Discrimination out the window.

This chapter legit had me not look at RWBY content for a while, now where do I start my problems with problems...... First off, Jauque Schnee has got to be the most foldable chair of a “villain” that I’ve ever seen. The moment the cards are stacked against him he turns into a cartoon villain going “I guess the jig is up, time to skidaddle.” He could have been a very complex grey business man who put the business first before anything. His relationship with the rest of the family could’ve been legit been fleshed our over the course 2-3 volumes with how much they had to work with on the characters. Like what was the relationship between willow and Jauque? How did they fall in love? When did their relationship die out? Who were the Faunus that had been assasinating family members in the Schnee manner? How did that affect the family, and in what ways? It BAFFLES me that they didn’t dig even and INCH into any of those questions before arresting Jauque. On a side note for the whole Schnee thing, it seems like Whitely May get some good development depending on what they do with him. The set up is there, now we just need a talk with Weiss and an actual flashback so we can see what happened between them. I also hope that maaaaybe they won’t forget Winter was there as well for a good bit of time. I completely agree on Robyn Hillary Clinton being arrested. She should’ve been in a jail cell the moment she stepped foot on Atlas. But, knowing this show she will be forgiven for treason and theft against the military with no punishment whatsoever 🤷‍♂️. Then we have they riots finally being shown on screen 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. Big problem tho, they are wasting good furniture and expensive fire dust crystals on a fire in the middle of the city instead preserving resources like any intelligent human being would. Also, your point on the heater was very good. They really should have many different heaters that they buy and have in their own homes. We have those in Florida and we don’t even need them. They’d have a much greater reason for extras in case the system glitches out or shuts down. I absolutely hate that the hero’s got away with lying to Ironwood Scott free. He has literally been the most trust worthy character in the entire volume and they lied to him for no good reason. Then what happens when they decide to tell the truth? “And Oscar, no more surprises ok?” what is with Ironwood being ok with all of their nonsense? He doesn’t even have a big reaction to it or anything, and I hope they didn’t leave out the whole uniting humanity thing either. The entire lying plot line that everyone said would “pay off later” ended up going now where as expected, and I didn’t even want to be correct about it. Ima leave this paragraph for all the shipping in general. I hate any and all shipping that they do in the show at this point. Not just the fans, but the writers also took any fun or enjoyment I could have with romance from this series. Even more so with Ruby and Oscar where they waste screen time that should be on Weiss or the Schnee’s. Now the most important topic of all the paragraphs. ICE CREAM GIRL IS HERE BOIIIZ. I can say I agree 1000000% with her look making me want to do some fun stuff with her. She is half the reason I still watch this show and I’m hoping to both gods that she gets some proper respect done to her character. Sadly, I can’t say I have any hope for Cinder tho. She used be cool, but now I think she is in the same rabbit hole Adam was in. Anyway, I give this chapter a 3/10 almost all of the set up in volume was ruined this chapter. The 3 generously given because Neo is there. This was a great review of the chapter, I’ll tune in next week as per usual. 👋🏾

[@blueispaniard6513]

My thoughts: - Everything before Weiss enters the room is irrelevant. Good points are thrown out the window and completely ignored. - Weiss was eavesdropping that conversation in order to walk in at the most dramatic moment. I will not be convinced otherwise. - They put up a video of a supposedly dead person after several claims of faking footage and nobody questions it. Not once. Ffs. - Weiss went straight to the meeting. No hesitation. No consideration. She just did it. She didn't think about him being your father, acting as if it weren't relevant. She didnt think about how exactly it would affect Willow and Wheatly She didn't think about him being the CEO of the most important dust company in the planet, as if it weren't important. I get that she despises him, but he brought some stability to her family and the f***ing world. - Wheatly is getting a redemtion arc but it's gonna be half added and he'll forgive Weiss and Winter for no reason and very quickly. - Jaques really gave up, didn't he. No fight, no argument. Reminds me of Littlefinger'a death in GoT season 7. He should have argued. Realistically speaking, he would have argued. But he didn't. Just once, I want a villain to be against the wall, outmatched and checkmared. But they remain calm and outsmart the main cast. Let the villains be competent. - Ruby you goddamn c***! Now is the best time to tell him? That was literally 8 episodes ago. And all the time you spent, you could have told him. But you didn't. - The 2 minute Rosegarden bs was 1 minute 50 seconds longer than it should have been. - Ironwood has ungodly amounts of patience. He had every justification to lose it finally but didn't. I have some mad respect for him. - Watts got rid of the heating... But not the power. Wouldn't it have made more sense to have him turn off the power to the city. - The Grimm are still a joke. - The only time those robots are useful is when they are evil. - As much as I like Neo, that scene was pointless and should have been cut.

These last 8 episodes were almost a complete waste of time. The only (potentially) lasting thing is Jacques' arrest, Whitely, and seeing winter maiden. All the BS with robyn, the election, shipping, and not trusting Ironwood could've been cut and nothing of value would've been lost. The shit with Ironwood is especially annoying with how it was "resolved". The Ace Ops could arguably be cut too. Only thing keeping them relevant IS whatshisface's potential heel turn, and that's just him (or whoever they turn). If they don't go through with, or just fuck it up, then that was another waste. Also, them being completely one dimensional side characters means any attempts at an emotional moment with them would be a waste.

[@dracolordnick6779]

@S3 Studios They really were, the entire Orange Man Bad plot contributes nothing to the characters at all. This volume was meant to be Weiss' character arc, but instead they threw Weiss under the bus to spew their political agenda that nobody at all cares about. Ruby's group also dogging Ironwood was nothing more than a mess and they had no right in doing so, Ironwood is the leader of a country, but nope, Team RWBY is here to screw everything up because they can't trust him despite the fact that Ironwood has given them pretty much everything from new weapons, to new outfits, to their own Hunter's license. This volume easily could've been so much more, but the writers just wanted to push their political agenda instead.

At least Chapter 10 doesn't have politics now that Jacquass is out of the picture for now. Also, Super Saiyan Blue Evolution Luigi vs Full Power Silver Eye Cinder, who wins?

3 chapters left? Woohoo! If Jaqucass stabbed Weiss with her own Myrtenaster, he should at least try sound like that did everything he could to groom her into his heiress, but may also reveal his plans for the SDC's future by . He'll also try to cover it up In all fairness, the real Jacques is still a self-righteous douchebag but he is far from psychopathic. That's what Salem and Cinder are for. It explains his wife's longterm drunken state, Weiss's behavior, Winter's distance from the family, Whitley's sycophantic nature, and the corporation systematically placing Faunus as slaves. Stabbing Weiss should actually be difficult for him because she's still part of his dysfunctional family and murder by his own hands does not appear his forte, so he must do it out of desperation or tricked by Emerald's Illusions Semblence.

I thought that politics were going to be second in this volume's story and the Schnee family would be first. However, it is the other way around apparently. The real problem I have with the whole politics arc is that the two characters they had play the roles of the candidates obviously were the two candidates for the 2016 election. There were some great opportunities to really show the true history of members of the schnee family. We met Weiss' mother and we saw how Winter really hates her father. It would have been better if Willow, Winter and Weiss were more involved in bringing down Jacques.

Jaques has been alluded to since the White trailer (it was Jaques who set up the fight in the tralier). He went down to soon. Also, what will happen to the SDC? Isn't it a huge monopoly?

I mean hell weren't the writers the ones who said they had to drop it because it was too hard to write.

Honestly, the whole "lying to Ironwood" thing isn't even that bad on its own. The problem is that absolutely nothing came out of it. Seriously, aside from pointless drama that goes nowhere, what purpose, good or bad, does lying even accomplish? There aren't any consequences, and there damn sure ain't any benefits. It's even dumber when you remember that the secret is about Salem being immortal and James' plan is just to tell everyone about her existence. Those don't correlate at all. As it actually happens, knowing about Salem's non-ningenness should have no effect on anything, so what tension even is there? What would've been better would've been if ol' Iron sides actually had a plan for fighting Salem. That way, them keeping that secret would mean they're actually doing potential harm and there'd be actual stakes. As it is, it was completely pointless and makes Ruby and co look like assholes and dumbasses for absolutely no reason. Also, Yang's confrontation with Raven still pisses me off a bit. Her main goal through the series was to find Raven and when she does, it's not even acknowledged. She just sasses and uses her as a way to get to Ruby. She doesn't even ask why she left. The crying at the vault was stupid too. Raven offered Yangst a chance to start over, and she blew it off immediately. I get the feeling they were going for a Fresh Prince scenario, but while that scene works on multiple levels even outside the context of the rest of the episode or the actual real life relatability of it, the Yangst and Raven scene just fails and is even dumber in context.

They should've killed jaune instead! Anyway, loved the fight scenes, emtional scenes, the lore, the entirety of the fall beacon was EPIC, and they introduced winter and my number one favorite character in the series Qrow!) 3. Vol. 7 (yeah, i know, i know , the volumes not done yet, but as of chapter 10 i love it, the citizens that are just background fodder are great and have some good personalities, Jacque spent all these years tap dancing on hornet nests and finally got stung! I LOVE WILLOW!!! please... QrowxWillow.... i need it in my life, fight scenes are great, love how it feels like spy movie with watts and tyrain. Learn more about tyrain and watts, tyrain is still creepy, watts is a clever S.O.B., Ace Ops are cool, weiss holds her own against winter in training loved that, Ironwood is the best part about this volume, robyn was ok could've been alot better, pissed that cline was fired, the grimm are cool even though theres that plot hole, LOVE the new designs the only thing i dont like is jaunes haircut, but theres nothing i really dont like about this volume so far, except like most people im not a fan of Qrow's new voice, but hey what can ya do, and whats the thing between qrow and clover? makes me want to puke.) 2. Vol. 4 (loved the hoping back and forth of the girls, got to know more about tai, raven, and qrow. Loved the horseman grimm or what ever its called, the story of ren and nora was emotional, Jaune training with Pyrrha's recording was a stab through the heart, Qrow yet again was the best part of this volume, weiss' story felt claustrophobic in my opinion, wish we saw Willow, Ironwood to me was a sign of safety, the introduction of the main villains were great, Cinder was mess which she deserved. Qrow vs Tyrain is one of my favorite fights in the show, Yang's ptsd was interesting and her getting back on her feet was up lifting, only wish we saw more of it, Blake's story was heartwarming to meet her family and have some fun moments with Sun, the chineese dragon Grimm was awsome, man i suck at remembering these creatures names. The ending is filled with hope, but a hint of bittersweetness. 1. Vol. 2 (this was hard, sometimes vol 4 is my fsvorite, but currently its vol 2, the food fight, the school, all the new characters were great. NEO WAS INTRODUCED, the mech fight was awsome, the dance was hilarious, the dog was adorable, professor ooblec was a joy to watch, Blake stress made sense, Pyrrha was great, and Roman was the best part of this volume.) My guess of why i love this show to bits still is the fact that i dont think of this as masterpiece or something thats supposed to be perfect, i think of it as one of the dumb entertaining movie blockbusters or marvel movie. My expectations are just to be entertained, i dont watch this for the Story, but the entertainment.

You know what Draco...? Weiss's arc was well crafted out and written...And Politics had NOTHING To do with it...This was her one chance to prove to more than just her family and friends, that her father is a bad person,And she took it,she didn't hesitate,Therefore, Overcoming any hidden fear of retaliation by her father or her father trying to twist things to his advantage to try to get out of it,And her making the arrest was the right decision,Because it GAVE. HER. CLOSURE! So if you don't like it,Fine,Complain about it,act like Weiss shouldn't get closure,Act like a 5 year old about it...It's YOUR Loss,

I am sorry but I heard this same Bs before. The first being Adam being abused to Blake and stuff. There are other show that does better arc than this.

[@GamerHalo982]

From my perspective Weiss didn't even do anything to really deserve her closure. She got flexed on by Jacques during episode 4, she had a "major" moment during episode 5 when Winter told Weiss how much they've grown but it's not specifically stated how she's grown, then in episode 8 she goes to Jacques' study without a plan and luckily runs into her mom so Willow could give her what's essentially a macguffin. Weiss doesn't have a proper arc; she simply does things then it somehow works out in the end. The payoffs in the volume feel cheap and unearned. Most things in the volume feel cheap and unearned I think. It's like the show is relying on the fandom's headcanon to add to the payoff instead of properly writing it into the show. For example, why were there moments in episode 1, 3, and 4 that heavily implied Weiss and Blake were going to have a subplot relating to faunus discrimination to show her growth as a character. Weiss literally throws a racist into the trash, Blake AND Marrow talk to her about her "Schnee Guilt" as I'll call it and Blake even held her hand in solidarity against Jacques. Was that supposed to be enough to demonstrate her change as a character? I mean she was dreading about going back to Atlas throughout Volume 6 and got captured and almost died during volume 5. If anything she was either a victim or a bystander for the last 2 volumes with very little development. Are we as the audience supposed to take her major development from literally 3 volumes ago and extrapolate it over 3 years of content and be satisfied with that??? Now show me this "well crafted and written" character you speak of. Tell me how my favorite character along with every other character wasn't rushed or mishandled for the sake of a bad narrative or a cheap allegory.

[@marqusmedina5983]

I think the politics were the best part. They got dragged out and exploited *Just like in real life* 😏

[@supercrazyfawful8779]

Why is that everything volume 6 and 7 does right in my opinion people bash, i loved episode, the only volume i agree with everyone else is vol 5 being terrible.

[@benjaminmcneil574]

All of the bad those volumes do are more noticeable to people than the good.

[@supercrazyfawful8779]

Well i prefer to focus on the positives of things, it helps me enjoy more things, but shows like rwby come along and i hear people say the things they hated, but for some reason i liked. Im enjoying weiss this volume, it doesnt feel like filler to me, im enjoying the living hell out of this show right now, the production behind the scenes though i can agree with.

[@ScrappyPom]

Unfortunately the positive is what makes RWBY even more irredeemable because the writer and their team have a huge ego and political agenda

[@supercrazyfawful8779]

I guess i must be lucky that all of that is going over my head, but then again i dont watch the show for the story, i watch it to be entertained, like a summer movie blockbuster.
