Weiss Schnee - Tori
I won’t repeat everything from my summary for the first panel, but here is everything that’s new. Better questions this time. Also I missed the first 10 minutes of it, but I might rewatch those in case anything important happened. They went through the new merch very fast this time to have more time for questions.
- Someone
asked about the cinematography change in volume 4 were they went for a more
Hollywood-like style of cutting more, doing more close ups with the fight scenes. The answer was too
complicated to write it down quickly, but basically they are trying to use
different styles together.
- Someone
actually asked about Yang’s arm having a vibrator function. The answers were
pretty funny, from yes (for phone calls of course), Barbara saying the hand has
a spinning function (for cooking and badass attacks of course), Arryn saying
yes (to replace an electrical tooth brush of course).
- Interesting
questions about the limitations of semblances. Basically the limitations are
not to make the characters overpowered and imagination. Yang gets stronger the
more hits she takes, but when she gets unconscious it was all for nothing, also
mention of Qrow’s semblance that goes beyond the battlefield and affects
him everywhere. Nora has her semblance because Monty wanted her to jump really
high and swing her hammer with much force. Also volume 5 will have more talk
about semblances because they know they didn’t establish the rules really well
and will fix that.
- Someone
asked about each’s favourite character. Mile’s favourite character is Qrow and
during volume 1 – 3 he often felt like smacking Jaune. Kerry’s favourite is
mostly whoever was in the last scene he wrote. Arryn’s favourite is Neptune,
her least favourite is Mercury. She also hates Adam but loves him as a
character. Kara’s least favourite character is Daddy Schnee, her favourites are
the other girls on her team. Barbara likes Qrow and Nora, she doesn’t like
Mercury, Adam, Neo or just everyone who gets in her way. Lindsay loves Tai, her
least favourite is Weiss (more said as a joke). Gray’s favourite character
changes with his mood but he wants to punch Adam.
- Animating
the fall of Beacon was extraordinary difficult and a big process.
- There exist
some misprinted shirts that say Fall of Bacon.
- There was a
very cute moment when (despite Miles saying please questions only) a fan said
how important RWBY and especially Blake are to her, especially after she came out and got
abandoned by her family, she got lots of hugs.
- Someone asked about cameos but I didn’t know the shows her was talking about, something about Dream Daddy Dating Simulator and Tai being in it (as a joke but who knows).
- They also mentioned Qrow here with Lindsay saying he’s not a daddy,
Kara(?) saying he is a daddy, and Vic saying in his Qrow voice “I am sure I’m
someone’s daddy, I get around, kid, I get around.” To all the Daddy Qrow believers, you might either love or hate this line.
- Someone
asked about the hardest scenes for the voice actors. Lindsay and Barbara both
picked the end of volume 3, because both their characters had to act so much
out of their usual behaviour and attitude, Yang being completely defeated and a
shell of a human being. Kara picked the scene in volume 4 where she talks to Jaques
in her room, because it’s the first time you see her that vulnerable. Arryn picked the scene between Blake and Ghira, because being sad for her is easy, but
with Daddydonna (her words) it was hard, because there was so much history
involved and more depth to her sadness.
- Someone
asked about the deleted _NP_ vs S__N fight in volume 3 (by the way, they describe the scene in detail in the
volume 3 director’s commentary) where Pyrrha and Nora were supposed to fight Neptune and Sun. The reason they picked Nora to fight with
Pyrrha was that they knew how dark everything would get and wanted to put as
many lighthearted and funny fights into this volume as possible. The idea was
to see Nora and Pyrrha get along, to have a lot of energy and lightheartedness
with the two of them.
- We will
probably get more details about gen:lock next week. Also dishwasher1910 made
the teaser poster for gen:lock.
