Now that volume 2 is officially released in Japan, i thought I’d add on to my previous comparison! I’m honored to be able to once again provide art for the RWBY Japanese DVD release o/
Okay. So let’s analize the new desings of team RWBY.
Looking at Ruby we can see (Especially on her cape) that she and probably Jaune, Ren and Nora saw some action. It’s still pretty goth, and pretty pratical for combat and walking around.
Weiss it’s a oposite of Ruby. She deson’t look like a huntress, she looks more like a singer. And she probably is. Her father probably forbid her of being a huntress OR she dosen’t want to be one any more.
Blake’s outfit is my favorite by far, I always liked long coats but this is not the point. It looks shady, like some thing a mercenary or a criminal use. And it probably is.
Yang’s is the most civilian looking one, and with good reason. It’s clear that she is not a huntress anymore.
