RWBY

I know this series is almost 10 years old and I'm behind on watching, but I finally got there. The show has a video game feel to it. The characters look like they belong in a game. The story is good, and the characters are relatable.

Worth purchasing the DVD not only are you supporting the production of original content the fact is the story is creative and the use of poser to make the anime is great. Think about this how many great animes that are made japan and made for young adults and teens compared to USA where everything is geared towards little kids. This anime is great for kids as well but when you watch it you feel as if your watching something that is not made in the USA meaning its an anime in the sense thats not from japan and homegrown in the usa. Also if you like the free web episodes buying the dvd makes sense your supporting the production of a good anime. How many people can say that, not only supporting the production of anime in terms of purchasing the dvd, your as well showing the company there is a fan base and hopefully this support will spur the development of more anime content from this company and smaller companies as well who feel they cant compete against the bigger companies, Big companies have dominated animation in USA its about time that smaller companies see that the web is another great medium to showcase anime beyond just tv stations, I am so happy this anime was made, or web anime series.

RWBY is one of my favorite anime shows. And the first volume introduces the four main titular characters. And you can see a lot of went into making them really interesting and complex characters. Ruby Rose the leader who's a little too optimistic and naive, but funny and charming as well. Weiss Schnee your typical anime Tsunade or emotionally complicated type with a ❤️ of gold. Blake Belladonna the mystery and tragic lone cat girl who's trying to make peace with her inner demons and past. Yang Xaio Long the wild child and party girl but she's very protective and loyal to her friends. I can't wait for more of the series.

As a fan of anime and RvB, when I first heard about this coming from Rooster Teeth, the creators of RvB, I watched the first trailer and it looked intriguing to me. I watched the trailers as they were released, until the first episode came out. And was not disappointed.The show has some really good animation(It was done using Poser of all things. Color me surprised when I learned that).The story is really well done. The characters are really well done.The one issue I have is that, the character's faces are too white, almost to the point where they get washed out. I have a suspicion that it has something to do with the lighting in some areas, because in the scene where everyone is getting ready for bed at the end of episode 2, you can see the skin tones, and you can clearly see their faces. To be fair, this is their first season, so obviously, hopefully, next season will improve on that.The episodes were short, but hey, it's Rooster Teeth, some of their stuff, like RvB and RTAA are going to be short, so it's no big deal.I was not disappointed with this show. It was awesome, and I'm looking forward to the next season.

I wanted to love this series, but I can only like it. It has too many little problems.Bad things first: Some of the minor object interactions are flawed (like Roman smashing his cigar, Ruby eating the cookies), there are way too many tropes, some characters act stupidly or predictably and a few of the episodes were too short to really make any progress.Good things: Monty's action scenes are fantastic as always, the character designs are creative and well-varied, the voice acting is on par with RVB (a bit weird, but really satisfying), some of the characters who do stupid things (like Weiss starting to get along with Ruby, then being really resistant to her style of leadership (despite the fact that she knows that Ruby is only a kid)) quickly stop doing said annoying thing, the world is interesting so far, several stories are being balanced at once, and you can still relate to most of the characters, even if they can be frustrating sometimes.So, it's still good, but it might be a while before it reaches the heights of Red vs. Blue.

I'm not sure how many people complained about the visuals, but applause to the company and artists for being different. I watched this on Netflix but the quality of the DvD is much better, so it's worth the purchase.Not just the art, but the concepts are really, really nice. Each character has his/her own abilities, weapons, personality and not everything is given out the first time, you learn something new about each character a bit at a time. The story itself keeps progressing well, lots of action and moments when not everything is so serious; the dialogue and character interactions are just funny, you could tell the team had a good time putting this together, humor that successfully makes it from one continent to the other intact and convincing is very hard to find. If I could compare this series to another, it would be 'Transformers Prime,' which had an ongoing, complex plot, lots of character interaction and funny.This should be part of your collection, great addition.

I originally watched RWBY during its initial release online and decided to support the company by buying the DVD, too. I love all the research about the fairy tale lore of the characters of RWBY/ Monty Oum and Rooster Teeth have brought a great re-imagining of the fairy tales. Each character grows in his or her own way as the story develops. I ended up liking some characters and hating others, however that is not meant as a strike against the writers. All the characters grow and react greatly to one another. I love the weapons and the battle scenes as they are detailed and mind boogling.The only negative review I have to give is that the beginning is a bit slow and some of the writing there is a bit cheesy. This does eventually erode away with future episodes.

Got my product delivered in great time, but the disc was scratched and skips when I play it in a dvd player. I know you can't open the dvd to have it more securely but it should be shaken a bit to make sure the dvd is in place so when the product is delivered it's open without having a damaged dvd.

Just a little broken on the edge of the package but dvd perfect like a mirror!Arrived before expected!

Great series! Also flows much better if viewed in the form of a film instead of the segmented online form due to the short lenght of the episodes. The only complaint I would have is that the video quality feels quite low but it was to be expected from a DVD instead of the blu-ray.

Great product.

Love it!
