The second season of RWBY continues in the same vein as its predecessor, delving deeper into the meticulously crafted world of Remnant and its inhabitants. Season two picks up shortly after season one, continuing with Ruby and her friends’ life at Beacon Academy, while simultaneously (and slowly) presenting the external threat that Torchwick and the White Fang pose. Thus, as the second season progresses, the conflicts (both internal and external) are developed in tandem with more comical moments this mirrors the way the first season was handled. The strengths and weaknesses inherent in the first season (superior fight scenes and comedy for strengths, plot progression and character development for weaknesses) transfer into the second season, although the second season does have improved artwork overall, with more details in the environment than the first. The main element that appears to be holding RWBY back for the present appear to be episodic length: by the second season, it’s clear there’s a brewing conflict between the Huntsmen and Huntresses, as well as rogue organisations such as the White Fang and Torchwick. A large array of new characters are also introduced. The FlashAir switch has always been there but is of no use if you dont have the Pro version. Time crunch and lack of investment in Poser by the owners at that time forced him to use Flash as the library base. Moreover, the characters also appear to have backgrounds of their own that merit exploration while shadowing Dr. Ted (BB) Crozer was hired to code a new library. Oobleck, Oobleck asks each of Weiss, Blake and Yang as to their own motivations for choosing the Huntress’ path. ALISO VIEJO, CA - (Marketwired) - 07/03/13 - Smith Micro Software, Inc. These elements would easily build excitement in viewers, leading them to wonder how all of these different pieces fit together, but short episode lengths mean that such exploration is often not possible. Weiss mentions that life itself is structured in such a manner and isn’t nearly as tidy. If this is the sentiment that RWBY‘s second season was going for, it worked rather well there’s no single overarching theme, and the series’ depiction of a variety of events hints at the unpredictability of life. Overall, the world-building aspects are phenomenal in RWBY, although the series’ structuring also limits the possibility of providing the characters with additional depth and motivation (in turn helping audiences empathise with their situations more strongly), leaving RWBY‘s strongest moments in the fight scenes. Justice, as per Ruby’s terms, will both be swift and delicious: the moment is consistent with what she’d said in season one about drinking milk.
