Qrow: _penetrates enemy_ Enemy: *magically splits in half* And all other scythe users also happen to have this unrealistic feature The actual realistic way to slice someone with an scythe is by swinging and pulling at the same time thus making decapitation
I like how ironwood wasn't going to try anything potentially lethal when he thought Qrow was going to attack him. Also Harbingers scyth form used to have weight behind it probably one of my favorite weapons in the series.
The last bit bugs me. Qrow knows Tyrion is a menace, is insane, and likely murders puppies as a hobby... So why on earth would he team up with him for any reason? Sure Clover wants to arrest him, and that is a conflict that will need resolution, but at that moment it's Tyrion, puppy murderer, or Clover, an officer who is a good guy just following bad orders... You team up with Clover to put Tyrion out of his misery, then worry about Clover.
In the director’s commentary for Volume 7 they say that one thing they wish they’d shown better was that Clover wouldn’t stop attacking Qrow. This is why Qrow has the line in Vol 8 about how Clover “just wouldn’t let up”. The intention of the scene is that Qrow wanted to team up against Tyrion but Clover kept attacking Qrow because Clover knows how good Qrow is and underestimates Tyrion. Because Qrow thinks he can take out Tyrian on his own he decided to take Clover out of the picture as soon as possible. Qrow made a ceasefire with Tyrian because Clover wouldn’t stop attacking Qrow and Qrow saw no other way forward
@@typhonyx_was_taken even if that's true you don't put a ceasefire with the puppy murderer extraordinaire. But that just puts Clover's idiocy in the limelight of you have someone who you certainly be reasonable with vs someone who you should also know would happily eat your family.
Clover is also fucking stupid for not prioritizing the psycho who just crashed their plane in the tundra. Fuck Clover, he was too stupid to live anyways.
I love Harbinger because in Scythe and Greatsword form it looks like a real weapon but despise Crescent Rose because it looks so blocky and looks far too heavy
Honestly, Qrows scythe was the most disappointing thing in RWBY for me. The build up we got, and all he did was kill a Griffin, when he could've just used his sword, shot it, or just said "hey there's a Griffin like, 30 feet behind you."
Amazing Job!! This looked like a very hard well fought fight for both of you. Very impressive, in my opinion, fighting the hardest boss in this game as a level one! Very worth it in the end!!🥰
That little sequence at 0:59 really cements that Qrow is a legend, really put sinto perspective what the average huntsman or huntress must be like and how Ruby has been trained by the best, there's a reason she's a prodigy, the two of them are probably the most talent scythe weilders of their generation, easily.
Funny enough I dislike crow's weapon. As his semblance is bad luck, and anyone knows the more moving parts, the more likely the system is to fail. Especially with open gears. Granted it's cute that rwby likes crow's weapon but should of stayed purely her creation or made it a heirloom from her mother. I do forget if crow's semblance works purely on others or also him self.
0:53 this is actually a really good detail. Qrow is spinning perfectly straight ,but ruby is tilting ever so slightly as she's spinning. Shows there different levels of skill perfectly. And anybody who's seen the shorts knows ruby is most likely the best on the team. In terms of pure skill with her weapon (weiss maybe better 🤔) . Point being she dosen't just swing cresent around to look pretty. Really shows qrows skill and he trained ruby so that makes it better
@@snakeslife-uroborodjinn790Still, the fact that she managed that spinning, albeit a little awkwardly, is impressive in itself. Also, one thing I've noticed, Qrow swings upward, while Ruby swings downward. That's bound to make a difference
Let's acknowledge that Qrow, the person who taught Ruby to use her scythe, and is well known for being the only scythe user of the era aside from Ruby, has 2 minutes of actually using said scythe out of 8 volumes. But also going off that, if he's so good with the sword that he doesn't often need the scythe, Qrow switching to the scythe must terrify anyone who goes against it.
Rewatching the first clip I really wish Qrow would have not believed Ironwood and really thought he conspirated against the academy and the city. Could have introduced a pretty good character conflict. Though thinking again, I don't think there is a strong reason for Qrow to think that way, so yeah.
This video is only for full transformations. Partials forms like his Vol 4 Tyrian fight and the alley fight in Vol 7 didn’t really feel like a “scythe”
