While every other fan will no doubt have talked about all the theories, speculations and narrative beats of the volume 6 premiere, if you’ve read enough of my previous posts, you know I like to approach things with RWBY from a production viewpoint. Whether or not everyone ultimately agreed with all the criticisms made towards volume 5 and found them valid, the fact it has driven the show’s director, Kerry Shawcross to a point where he temporarily needed to isolate himself from the fandom spoke for itself about how out of hand the discussion got at times.īetween announcements and promotions for volume 6 and other mixed-media projects, the annual Fathom Event Screening on the 25th of October which led to the premiere of the volume proper, it’s probably safe to say that people wanted to move on to better things.
The fan base was at a weird state, being harsher than usual towards the story and presentation. Though unlike the hiatus into volume 3 where everyone was coping through the emotional hurdle of the show’s creator, Monty Oum’s untimely passing, the hiatus into volume 6 came with a myriad of discussions about not whether the show would keep going but rather its quality as it kept going. It is finally RWBY season again! Since volume 5 ended in January, fans have been met with probably the longest hiatus since the gap between volumes 2 and 3 at 9 months.
