About RWBY:
The future-fantasy world of Remnant is filled with ravenous monsters, treacherous terrain, and more villains than you can shake a sniper-scythe at. Fortunately, Beacon Academy is training Huntsmen and Huntresses to battle the evils of the world, and Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang are ready for their first day of class.

[@vibingwiththewind2889]

The thing I love about this fight is that, up until Weiss starts using dust, she is losing against the Giant Armour. At the start of the fight, she is attempting to beat it and show her father that she is strong enough to do this (likely, it's an old training Atlesian robot), but when she's not able, she has to fall back on that wealth her father has - even though she doesn't like how her life has been defined by her father and the name 'Schnee.' It speaks volumes of her growth through to Volume 3, where she decides to live her life independently of her father, and then onwards to Volume 4.

Hi Jp Artist!!

[@CrypticNazo]

THIS is art. This trailer doesn't just show her abilities, it also shows her position in the world from her perspective. You can hear cheering and adoration from countless people in the audience, but there's nobody there. She's fighting a empty shell, which can represent her own loneliness. The lyrics of the song claim she wants to hide from herself, because she knows people love her because of her father's company, not because of who she is. She also knows that there are people like the White Fang who hate her for her father's choices. That's why she wanted to become a huntress, so she wouldn't have to live a empty life decided by her father's actions.

[@WednesdayMan]

[@iatemycat5320]

@@direwolffrost9220 nope

[@nicebot337]

Honestly I think v8 fixed that, she uses glyphs and dust a lot more. I feel like she doesn't get the chances to get as close because she's a glass canon and most ennemies in later volumes could easily break her aura if she gets too close. I like her role now, she's more of a heavy damage/support fighter using her glyphs to support teamates while dealing huge damage with summonings and dust.

[@direwolffrost9220]

@@nicebot337 just because her role changed doesn't mean it a good thing

[@direwolffrost9220]

@@nicebot337 she isn't the kind of character to hit hard or something. Her character is more suited to support and controlling the fight not attacking directly.

[@colecarbaugh]

Ok but have y'all considered how brave this was. From what I can tell, she wouldn't have suffered that wound on her forehead unless her aura broke. In rwby their aura protects them from suffering actual physical trauma, but as we've seen in later seasons, if someone's aura becomes depleted they can actually take physical damage *cough mercury cough*. So basically after her aura was depleted and she got the wound on her head, she kept fighting. She could have easily been killed and yet she kept fighting. That's like extremely badass

[@cel5106]

Mercury getting hurt was a illusion

[@kc.]

Mercury's attempt to attack Yang was the illusion. Her counter punch was very real.

[@dizzyx7]

If her aura depleted entirely she wouldn’t have been able to use her semblance, would she? It’s more likely using it wasn’t yet natural to her and she forgot to protect herself. Assuming the rules were thought up this early in the making..

[@kc.]

It was definitely an inconsistency in CRWBY's representation of aura, especially considering this was made so early in the process of creating RWBY. Since Weiss can't use her semblance after her aura is broken, it should have been impossible that she received that cut and then continued using her semblance.

[@kc.]

Weiss's semblance is both glyphs and summoning. She also used dust, but she definitely used her semblance quite a lot.

Fr characters like weiss could be so strong but they spam one power they have and makes them seem weaker and reliant on one thing.

[@GuardianValkyrie]

Monty Oum was the one directing and choreographing these fights. His animation partner Shane did them for volume 3 once Monty passed, but he also left RT after volume 3. The fights in RWBY now is a lot of camera tricks and ill-paced, clunky choreo. You can immediately tell how they compare when you put a post volume 3 fight with one of the trailers, or 1v1 fight (like weiss vs lieutenant). Weiss especially has such a fluid, and beautiful fighting style that makes you want to watch her at half speed just to appreciate her fighting sense and instincts with how she follows up all her attacks. Each fight had a rhythm to them like a captivating dance you couldn’t take your eyes off of. That was what made RWBY so special, but all of it is lost now.

[@nathagar9251]

@@GuardianValkyrie the writing hasn’t changed, but there was SO much personality in the monty/shane fights that it mattered less. Sure they spent episodes fumbling around trying to establish characters and relationships and wasted your time, but then a fight happened and everything *clicked* and it was awesome. You understood who these people were from how they fought. You understood how they felt about each other from how they worked together.

The amount of symbolism they are putting into the scenes and characters is phenomenal. I mean, she talks about how she is lonely, no one in the world can relate to her background and upbringing, and her family by the sounds of things had a very hands off approach to raising her. And of all the trailers, what is she fighting? Possessed armor. Hollow. Empty. The purest expression of nobody. Even her opponents aren't really there for her.

[@LizardWizard444]

that is true and her father never being there for her accomplishments along with her constantly pushing her to become able to take his place when he's dead, even though he never seems reward her ( witch most likely was a just being accepted) even though she got anything she wanted (episode 10). she even traps it in place befor taking it down so maybe that here finally reaching his view of her. (in her eyes) it's a stab in the dark so live with it.

[@infernorule1434]

The first two trailers are a master class in art/story/fight direction.... the rest of the series lacks in any of that.

[@WCX]

Based on the trailer, I always imagined Weiss to be a quiet, sad, stoic person. Kind-hearted but unable to connect to those around her, isolated by wealth and expectations of her that she did not want herself. Then the show came out and the writers made her a loud, whinny, spoiled rich-girl trope. Also, remember that time the writers made her a racist/human supremacist until they kind of forgot about the subject and never spoke of it again because they were woefully unprepared to handle such a heavy subject?

[@tiamod]

WCX I consider this trailer more of an inner reflection of Weiss. Not the exterior she presented. Though I will admit I was shocked when I first saw her on the actual show in the second episode. Still my favorite Rwby character. Also, she was supposed to be (in your words) “racist”, because A. People can be like that B. She comes from a place where literally everyone who isn’t rich is looked down upon. Some more than others. It is what it is. I personally thought they handled well. A bit short, but well enough. (Though perhaps because when Volume 1 came out, race/racism was only just becoming such a sensationalized topic as it has been the last few years) It was a small arc that had a beginning and end that led to a lot of character development for Weiss.

[@corbinthomsen3007]

So I saw a comment here under this video that quoted “Why does she say that she’s lonely, she’s the least loneliest.” That, my friend, is incorrect. You see, Weiss Schnee is always pushed. Pushed to uphold the family name. Pushed to represent the dust company. Pushed to be perfect. She had always lived in a place where she had never felt real love. She always felt like she was fighting to be the best, flawless, because her father pushed her so much. Not out of love, but his benefit. It’s honestly depressing; her family members hardly consider her a Schnee (on the slight exception of Winter), and after her traumatic experience at Beacon, no one bothered to comfort her. “I’m the loneliest of all,” represents that she is ‘all alone’ because not even her father loves her. However, this all changes when she meets Ruby, Yang, and Blake. They teach her how to love, real love. That, is why she is the loneliest of all.

I missed when Weiss was more stronger and capable of fighting, she is still a versatile fighter but the series unfortunately made her weaker and made her prioritise summon more than anything out of ALL the abilities she can do with her Glyphs. RWBY honestly forgot the fact that Weiss can do Time Dilation which is tragic, if she were to use that ability in latest chapters and fights. Victory would be ensured. It’s honestly sad that we don’t get to see Weiss fight like she did from Volumes 1 to 3, she instead spams her most strongest move which is summons and I wish she relied on more of her swordsmanship, elemental Glyphs other than ice, and Time Dilations.

[@angelfairy6676]

@@nikkiwatson4723 I wish Weiss would do short-ranged fights more. She uses her rapier like a magic wand

[@adrianwalls4614]

All right, for anyone still confused about what's going on in the trailer... First of all, Weiss is the heiress to the Schnee dust company. She has a lot of typical "daddy's little rich girl" things to live up to. Her father is a cold, money-driven man that seeks to continue the Schnee's honor through is daughter, Weiss. As a result, she has been preened since childhood to be a model example of a prim and proper lady that should also be seen as an authority figure. This includes training her to fight. That being said, the father is rather... Neglectful of his daughter. Weiss has never had friends, as they weren't "good enough" for her. Her mother (if she is still alive) is in the shadow of the father, so she can't do much. The only real social interaction Weiss has is with the servants and employees, but we all know how awkward that'd be. Now for the video itself... Weiss is performing an singing piece for a very large stadium. The piece she is performing very accurately represents what she is feeling in her mind; untold loneliness and fury at having been caged for so long. Due to this fact, she starts to remember a training exercise her father put her up to. A test of her strength. This is the fight between the knight (or the Huntsman) and Weiss (Snow White). This fight is what Weiss feels is the pinnacle of her torment, as it left a scar on her mind and face. If further proof is needed that the fight is a memory, check for the scar on Weiss when she begins her singing. It's there. Now check her face at the beginning of the fight scene. The scar is gone. HOWEVER! When she is hit and begins to bleed, it's in the exact place of where her scar should normally be. Badabing, badaboom.

[@ats7485]

Adrian Walls Ding! Ding! Ding! Ten Points! This is the most accurate commentary on this trailer. The only thing I would add is that the curtain closes on her looking almost like a figurine inside of a snow globe. In other words, she is still caged; a proper little doll living in quiet pain and loneliness.

[@adrianwalls4614]

Thanks for the vote of confidence. And you're very right about your input; she certainly is still under her father's influence. I quite like how she slowly breaks free of that throughout the series. One of my favorite parts.

[@Riinkun]

Ruby is officially left-handed (according to Miles and Kerry), but according to the wiki she's adopted ambidexterity over time, mainly for the sake of her fighting style. Monty said that it was bc switching weapons between hands makes the fight more interesting.

[@MasterPoppers]

@@Riinkun If I recall, Monty said that both Weiss and Ruby were left-handed because he was left-handed (I'm using "if I recall" in a tongue-and-cheek manner, I actually have a screenshot of his tweet saying exactly that).

[@drenvara1843]

Xander Mosley sooo...that's really the story of her scar then ?

[@fyerozas]

I think what I miss most aboit fight scenes by Monty is how each charatcer has some personality in their movements. Weiss here has her elegance in movement - hints of ice skating, fingers close and not too far apart, and calculated movements. Though it's also fine to see them kind of drop that slowly as the series pass, makingbit seem like they were growing out of their self images and making themselves more battle-focused. It would be interesting to see them regain their old "movement personalities" like this on an episode like if they try to reminisce about their growth, or ease back into it when they are less tense & conflicted and more sure and ready themselves. Intentional or not, it's a bonus twist in perspective that makes you see that even the transision of animation can be a story-telling medium as well.

[@miam8141]

agree! I definitely feel sorry about the fact that Monty's style and energy are something the newer volumes of the show visibly lack, however it's not that it doesn't make sense narratively. I feel that the characters being "weaker" now actually conveys the way they felt invincible and full of hope and confidence when they were young and inexperienced students at Beacon (and before) and even though they had their problems, they carried a lot less burden in comparison to now. because once the real threat (Salem) had risen like this huge shadow above them-along with, to be fair, everything else that had happened to them throughout the show, and even before Salem was our central villain-they felt how weak they actually are against her. and although they're still young people, their old juvenile briskness sort of dissipated, which, although not ideal in the sense of how enjoyable it is to watch, does make sense and doesn't actually feel wrong. either way, it's really been bumming me out constantly seeing people being super bitter about the newer volumes just because the fight scenes aren't the same, although they would probably think they're good if they didn't have anything to look back at and compare them to (and as if the fights are the only thing the value and quality of the show as a whole should be judged by), so it's nice seeing a less ruthlessly communicated opinion ;) tbh most of the time I feel that the haters' hostile negativity and bitterness is really poisoning the fandom and also that it very much invalidates the efforts of CRWBY doing their best to carry on Monty's legacy. the fact is that he simply isn't here anymore and people who want to whine about it forever and not appreciate anything without him are just annoying at this point. anyway this turned into a pointless personal rant but yeah. my point is, I agree.

I dunno about you guys, but after the Volume 5 short, I've been watching this religiously. I prefer these older trailers over the newest ones These character trailers just have something that the newest trailers won't be able to have... The new ones just focus a little bit too much on the action or something and not much on the story. Sure the animation is great, but Monty just had the certain charm when working on the trailers. I think the line 'I can keep it from the world, why won't you let me hide from me? ' represents how much Weiss is struggling to suppress her true self and trying to be more how her father wants her to be. All these lyrics represent Weiss perfectly especially when she keeps asking the 'mirror' , ' Who's the loneliest of all? ' and she later replies with ' I'm the loneliest of all, ' I love how the audience is empty, it represents how everyone praises her but in the end it means nothing because those praises aren't for her but her father, Jacques Schnee.

[@rocky-my5ck]

you are absolutly correctt ,butt one thing a have to say is that the volume 5 short was a flash back to before this short, you can see it in her hair and that she doesn't have a scar , manking this look like a weiss with less power. at least that's what i got

+david godin It seems more to me like Schnees are able to summon any foe they've defeated in combat (if they could only summon one thing, I don't think Winter would've wasted it on a Beowolf), though I do think the knight will be what Weiss summons most often.

[@victorcordero1994]

It's one of the reasons why I came back to watch the trailer. That sword matches that of the knight in her battle.

[@MizuSky]

Curiosity, (mild/possible spoilers) The thing she's fighting here, kind of resembles her 'summoning' creature, even though you only get to see it's arm/sword, so the trailer kinda seems like she's fighting for her right to use this power, or accept the power she can't fully utilize, and the scar stands as a reminder of how painful it is that she struggles so hard to summon this compared to her sister and family members. Just a thought.

[@MikuVocaloidHD]

In the manga it's explained what that creature is! Read chapter 3

[@joeguy9817]

The Schnee family summons the Grimm that they beat in battle. Also, according to the manga, which is canon, the armor that Weiss is fighting is a special Grimm that can possess objects. It was created by the Schnee family by taking a lot of these Possession Grimm in order to test Weiss, if I remember correctly.

[@VeronicathePhoenix]

+Joe Guy I suppose that gives a new meaning to "burdened by the royal test".

Actual I think it's the opposite It's a reminder of beating her fallen foe that would push her to be able to do it If anything it helps

[@YourPoopDealer]

I remember seeing this as a kid before RWBY ever came out and thinking "This girl is actual perfection". Haven't bothered seeing much of RWBY, but I still like the idea younger me thought up. It was cute.

[@aoifewalsh1805]

... I think I know now the story about Weiss' scar. It just hit me as I was watching this again. She DID get it before the "fight", not during it. The battle against the mirror knight is a metaphorical memory for the conflict against her father, with the father being the mirror knight. The "knight" appearing is him coming back from work. As Weiss mentioned, he would come home furious everyday due to the war between the White Fang and his company. He, in a state of fury, attacks her first. She fights back in a rather passive way, as if trying to calm him. But at 1:41 the knight (father) strikes her and that symbolises how he inflicted the scar on her. And that's why she bleeds too, not because of what of the knight inflicted (the knight didn't injure Weiss as the fight was simply a memory), but what her father inflicted. After, she becomes more aggressive to defend herself (or she may had had enough of the abuse he subjects her to) and she "defeats him" in her mind. ...I need to stop looking too deep into things.

[@nigelmcllama7945]

Cool theory, but that's not it. Weiss is the daughter to a large, successful corporation, so in which case her father is probably pushing her to be the best she can possibly be. The song tells you that her father (maybe herself too) push her so hard that she never had the chance to have friends so she was always alone, hence why at the end of the song the answer to "Who's the loneliest of all?" was herself. But what I could gather from watching the trailer and what other people are saying, she is terrified of failure, and that's why when she was hit by the Knight and got the cut on her eye she looked extremely disappointed in herself. And the scar represents a failure that everyone can see, but it also tells herself that she isn't as perfect as she wants to believe she is.

[@aoifewalsh1805]

[@deaxiom3542]

You could make this comment about all of team RWBY. you're 100000% correct. RWBY was never supposed to be twirly blade quick hitter, Yang was never supposed to be Ranged pot shot turn hulk fighter, Blake was never supposed to be gunner. they were all fully fleshed main characters forced together, that got compressed into architypes. Thats why I say RWBY ended at season 3-4

[@thadinesutherland4230]

Ah the good old days when Weiss could fight and WIN all by herself

[@SolaceZero]

PEOPLE The Main Characters are WAY stronger in their respective trailers than in the show because they have to start off weaker or else there will be no room for character development. Im sure that by the end of Volume 2, Weiss will be close (if not already) to being this strong. I mean, we have yet to see Myrtenaster's yellow(agility enhancer), white(epic runes and awesome final strike) and red(fire blast and energy shield) Dust being used in the show.

[@Vixielicious]

I think, like the previous trailers, this is set before the show. She is sad, and alone. She muddles along in her sadness, and fights with no purpose, simply because she has been trained to. I believe she went to Beacon partly to please her father, and partly because it would get her away from this lonely, meaningless life of hers. It really shows the strength of her solitude. In the show she hasn't quite mastered people skills, and she didn't do as well as she could have in the fight against the Nevermore because it was pretty tough and required teamwork. She was stuck up, selfish, and self-centered for most of the show so far, and is only just learning to break out of that.

[@AstralMuffin105]

Actually, we have seen her use the fire blast. She was going to use it on that group of Beowolves that attacked her in the Emerald Forest, but Ruby got in her way, meaning Weiss had to swing elsewhere,which set part of the forest on fire, remember?

I though it was bullshit BUT NO slow down to .25 and pause at 2:51 its hard to catch since its only in one frame BUT IT IS THERE :O Try to pause it when her eye is filling up the whole screen.

[@kayachan5126]

I see it

[@JohnSmith-xg1od]

Good eye! I think its some sort of intentional symbolism of her leaving her rather extravagant life at Atlas to become a Huntress at Beacon. The reflection is of her with her eyes closed on the stage. Most likely the event she sings at is hosted by her family, since the Schnee logo appears in the background of the stage. It probably means that Weiss was selected to be the heiress over her older sister since winter is in the military, so Weiss was selected to be the heir to her fathers dust company from a young age, since winter is probably as old as Qrow, seeing as they've probably known each other for a while. Due to this, Weiss was probably paraded around as the next big thing at atlas, but went to beacon because she does love the perks of the Schnee name, but secretly dosent want to be on such a high pedestal like Phyraa was, and since Phyraa claimed that " when you're placed on a pedestal like that for so long, you become separated from the people that put you there in the first place."(Dance Dance Infiltration Vol. 2 Ep. 7) Because of her being so highly elevated, she claims herself to be "the loneliest one of all".(White Trailer). This is the reason she went to beacon, to avoid being put on a pedestal that she didn't want in the first place. It's just a personal thought, Monty was known for his foreshadowing. (For those saying that she summoned the giant sword in volume 3: this probably means she can manifest both physical and mental enemies. Winter does say "Excellent form! Now think to your fallen foes!" (Lessons Learned: Vol 3 Ep 4) She dosen't specify wether the foe has to be physical or mental.) Sorry this was so long.

For those who haven't read the manga.

[@zeph769]

Agreed. Even though all they were really supposed to show were the abilities of each RWBY member (besides Yellow and Black, which were much more plot heavy). Easily the best fight choreography in the series bar none (Pyrrha vs CRDL comes close)

[@cronagorgon1655]

Kris Same! If they had actually don't like that, some people, might, not have, died...😖😫😩😭😭😭Why did she have to die!? Why?!?!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

+Kain Bloodshower This is now my favorite comment on youtube.

[@fandomgod5990]

I knew I'm not the only one that the Giant reminded me of DarkSouls

[@zayaannashrid1374]

+Kain Bloodshower ...............XD Yes.

[@cobaltgrayson]

i remember when weiss used to have dancing incorporated into her combat, along with using different glyphs other than summons and having a much wider array of dust in use. now she just summons and swings her sword

[@milktenders6219]

I do find it a bit odd how the characters depicted in the trailers come off as incredibly competent fighters, but season 5 and on has degraded them to the point of barely being able to handle a single opponent

[@aleksisdanielsekks3051]

Happens when some 1 ells trys to copy others hand writing.

[@SnakebitSTI]

Season 1 onward, not season 5 lol. They all had their abilities toned down for the story.

[@shaninya1092]

When Weiss casts an attack, those circles remind me of those magic circles in Fairy Tail :3

[@shikiaura]

Ikr? I REALLY hoped I wasn't the only one lol

[@raearcana9971]

Shiki Aura I know!! I thought that it was really cool ^^

[@balacawood7609]

Agreed

[@heythatguyalex]

Its Gray as a girl minus the striping

[@raearcana9971]

Hhahahahahah

[@FortunePayback]

Man, I love Weiss. So beautiful and so majestic.

[@acolytesounds]

Still better execution than Ice Queendom. The music is also fantastic, cant beleive they took it all out..

[@WongSpy]

FACTS! Weiss is so powerfull in this

[@theveryaveragegamer9865]

at least ice queendom is better than modern rwby

[@foziarasheed2676]

1:33 I can't express how much I love this part, it fits so perfectly with her fighting and it's amazing.

[@skolpis3755]

I never want this series to end.. I love it so much.

[@AnimeFreak-vd9vz]

GeometryDash Skolpis same

[@mychemicalemotions]

Well, the series hasn't ended yet. ^^

[@k.heartfilia2753]

Though its a real tragedy that the creator Monty Oum passed away after the 3rd season...but some other people found his ideas for season 4...nd a bunch of season 4 episodes had already been released...R.I.P Monty Oum

[@enriconobili6922]

well, very close, not, because, even if i loved mounty, he was TOO stick to the anime style.

[@luciarose4041]

+Enrico Nobili what are you trying to say =_= i'd pick monty's original work over what other else rt can now provide :/

[@DerpyJeeves]

"Everyone is entitled to their own sorrow, for the heart has no metrics or form of measure, and all of it....irreplaceable" That line was powerful the first time I read it. And now it only resonates even deeper. Rest in peace Monty Oum.

[@ThatGuy-ld8wy]

Rip roosterteeth

[@s55123758]

Really miss Monty and really wish can see again this fighting style of Weiss 😭

[@TLB95Switchblade]

This is definately my favourite action sequence from RWBY thus far. Not the best trailer, but definately the best action sequence incredibly well choreographed and Monty did a great job showcasing both Weiss's skills as a fence-based fighter and as a glyph user. Fantastic.

[@UM4DBRO210]

mine is still the red trailer

[@TLB95Switchblade]

UM4DBRO210 Whilst I do love everythnig about Crescent Rose, Ruby and how the duo work together I can't help but feel like less effort went into the Red trailer. It was a fine display of Monty's animation prowess and of the aforementioned functionality of Crescent Rose but I just find that the other trailers had more effort put into them (likely because they in fact were... Monty was the sole person responsible for the Red trailer, that's why the beowolves are incredibly basic since he had no one to improve upon his own artwork beforehand). I think my list is: 4) Red 3) Yellow 2) White 1) Black Which is saying something considering that the Red trailer is still awesome.

[@UM4DBRO210]

true, but all around, every fight scene is AWSOME, i wonder how long it takes them for each,also yea forgot that monty did do the red trailer all on his own didn't he

[@artgirllullaby3322]

This opening quote fit so much with all the fandom right now that I begin to cry... Goodnight Monty.

[@ninjagrime4287]
