Renu and Soup talk about RWBY very passionately for a long time.

Disclaimer that we own none of the music and that it belongs to Jeff Williams and Roosterteeth (And whoever happens to own the rights for the Eva soundtrack at this point it's incredibly unclear).

Watch RWBY Here

Yakuza 0

The Best Anime Fight Scene of All Time

Anticipation in Animation

Every Frame a Painting's Breakdown of Jackie Chan's Directing Style

The RWBY Red Trailer. Watch this while keeping in mind the principles of anticipation, impact, and using framing to set up the next motion

Yang in the Yellow Trailer

Yang in the Character Short for Volume 5

Yang in Volume 5 vs Bandits. Notice how the framing is really jarring and robs you of satisfying resolution to actions.

I hate that this is uprendered to 60 fps, but Yang vs Neo is an incredible example of how Monty understood how to animate fighting styles interacting with each other. Pay special attention to Neo's deflections nullifying Yang entirely and the pauses between the actions that ramps up anticipation.

The First Match in Hanebado

Yang vs Mercury

Dillongoo's Animation
