#rwby lore

I maintain one of the funniest things RWBY did was shatter the moon then wait Six Volumes to explain it. Or most of the lore. Like in hindsight that’s hilarious actually.

Random thoughts: RWBY Lore

I love rwby and I recommend it to everyone who is my friend, BUT one thing I complain about rwby is that its universe seems like a very messy puzzle, because my god THE AMOUNT OF LORE THERE IS IN RANDOM MEDIA.

Like, I pass over the books about Team Sun and Velvet and Neo's backstory, but Fairy Tales of Remmant is the one that leaves me most confused about how RWBY's lore works.

I never understood where this god comes from, but apart from that question, if I were to evaluate the distribution of rwby's lore, it would be like 8/10. It's not complicated like FNAF's lore.

what do you guys think?

Got a serious question for anyone that knows the lore of RWBY that explain something to me. It's a little bit of rant so putting it under the cut.

So the Creatures Grimm or just the Grimm are creatures of darkness that don't have a soul. They are drawn to negative emotions and come in a large variety of shapes and sizes, but all are lethal will kill anyone they see without hesitation. They also live for hundreds of years and grow larger and more intelligent the older they get. They are also, apparently, the most widespread species on Remnant.

Now, all that above? CliffsNotes, basic info on these creatures that want to kill everyone on their planet. My question is "If these things are attracted to negative emotions, why isn't therapy mandatory for Huntsman?"

Let's take Qrow Branwen for example, this is a guy who had a crippling alcohol addiction, -10 self-esteem, and (while it's never stated) is insanely depressed. Now that's a lot of negative emotions inside someone that you are then sending out to fight creatures that are attracted to negative emotions. This would be liking going to fight a shark, while covered in raw and bloody meat. You are making a meal of yourself.

The only way it makes sense to send someone with this much negative emotions after the Grimm is if that's the point. Grimm are attacking a village or a city, killing everyone they see, civilians have no chance against them. Then a Huntsman shows up and all the Grimm drop whatever they are doing and swarm them. Civilians get a chance to escape as the Huntsman is fighting to stay alive. And even if they survive and kill all the Grimm they have to that again. And again. And again until they die.

Now this is not shaming anyone for having mental health issues or substance abuse problems, I've had to work through both. But if the difference between life or death at my job depended on how well I'm handing my issues I'd expect my job to make me go to therapy before they send me out.

Sometimes i think about how so much of RWBY was probably inspired by Zelda. (Maybe not but I'm a hardcore zelda fan, and i will associate everything i like) and i love it bc it's not...too obvious? Like, you can clearly point out the similarities and even after noticing them you don't see RWBYs story as a copy or anything (bc this is probably a strech BUT I DONT CARE)

The two brothers /the spirits of the relics -> the three goddeses

The blacksmith / the brothers -> hylia

The two brothers represent different aspects of life and the world -> so do the brothers, they divide their work

The triforce -> the relics

Gathering all of them has very important and potentially horrible consequences but it also can be used for good -> both the triforce and the relics

The pieces by itself can grant some sort of power or effect on the wielder -> the pieces of the triforce represent the goddeses and grant powers (using the light power, super strength, being able to wield a legendary weapon) / each relic has it's own purpose

An innocent soul drunken by power who is also a victim of an ancient god-like entity who seeks reuniting all the pieces of the triforce/relics -> salem / ganondorf

Someone who ended up being cursed to live again and again and again, as a mortal inmortal being whose purpose is to stop the great evil that is threatening the world -> hylia / zelda and ozma

Hm, and somebody innocent who due to this original curse was thrown into all this mess, starting to aquire memories from years and years and decades and centuries before they were born that belong to someone that is merging with them so that innocent person becomes the next soul in the curse and has to stop this great evil because is their fate? -> zelda (skyward sword) and oscar I'm looking at you two

And you're telling me that there were lies and manipulation involved? -> zelda again and ozpin I'm looking at you both

And who did you involved in all this? A brave warrior with a heart of gold and a simple and peaceful background and life who ALSO HAPPENS to be gifted at fighting who carries something unique, the only thing capable of harming that great evil?? Hmmm... -> ruby, link, I'm looking at you both

And you're telling me that having that thing is not as easy as it seems and you need to unlock it and learn how to unleash it's true potential? -> maybe like the silver eyes? Or maybe the master sword?

And you're telling me that these two souls are bonded by fate to meet and have A LOT of pararells and they complement each other? -> ruby and oscar I'm looking at you

And you're telling me that their story resembles and is a pararell to the original story of lovers? -> ozma/Salem - ruby/Oscar and the first link/hylia -zelda/link

And you're telling me that the soul who merges with this magical ancient being also carries light themed magic? -> zelda? Oscar? Explain

AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT EVEN IF THERE'S A MAIN HERO, THEY CANNOT DO IT ALONE AND THEY NEED HELP?

Hmmm like RUBY AND ALL HER TEAMMATES AND LINK AND HIS COMPANIONS?

Oh, and you're also telling me that there are very important and powerful people who carry a fraction of the power of the gods? Like the maidens? Or like maybe the sages? (I'm not including the champions bc botw came out after rwby)

So yeah, there's some similarities. And i LOVE IT

Also i ship zelink and rosegarden and I CAN ASSURE YOU. THEY'RE THE SAME. SAME DYNAMIC, SAME VIBE, THEY'RE SO DEAR TO ME OH MY GOD.
