RWBY

I'm pretty sure we've talked about this in class but my memory sucks so I'll post this. My friend recently told me about this web animation called RWBY by Rooster Teeth.

Now the only thing I've seen by Rooster Teeth is Red vs. Blue (which is freakin hilarious so if you haven't seen it you should). However, once I watched this, I watched all of the 13 episodes they have. The episodes are fairly short like less than ten minutes. It's also a very entertaining animation.The characters are all lovable and realtable. The action scenes are excellent. They resemble the camera shots and fighting movements of actual fighting games. The storyline and plot are interesting and the design of the monsters, weapons, and characters are phenomenal. 

One reason I posted this is because recently Michael has been recently talking about recognizable silhouettes. This show does one thing that another show I've watched called Soul Eater does and that's everything that's not an important character is a silhouette. But they even took that into consideration and made each silhouette different and recognizable even though it's but a background character. One might have a cowlick or one might have pigtails, bunny ears, long nose, etc. The main characters also have very recognizable silhouettes. In the ending cards they show silhouettes of different characters each episode, even if teachers you've only seem once. But you instantly recognize that character based on their design though they had short screen time.

I would say watch at least a few episodes of this show. If you're not sure about it you can watch the trailers they made.


If you are sure the first episode can be viewed here. Like I said I'm pretty sure we talked about this show in passing so if you know about my bad. But this show is too awesome to not talk about.

Also if you're looking for other things to watch the animation is very similar to Iron Man: Armored Adventures

so if you like it that's also a show that very well done with characters and story. Also the plot and design show a lot of resemblance to an anime called Soul Eater.
It is an excellent anime. It is dubbed (in case you're not the subtitle kind of person) and is on Netflix right now if you have it. If not:

And this is a link to Iron Man: Armored Adventures. I think it might have been on Netflix at one point but they've taken stuff off recently so I'm gonna just give you a link for it/
