Jaune vs Osamu - How to write strategists (RWBY vs World Trigger) 

Here's a strategy I came up with WHILE I was watching the episode for the first time: Since the Geist uses its huge limbs to protect an obvious weakspot (ie, the face), simply target the limbs separately instead of trying to get past them. Have Nora target the legs (naturally) and Ruby target the arms to keep the Geist occupied, while Ren uses his semblance to get in close without being detected and target the face point blank. It's not that fucking hard, even without the benefit of a third person perspective. Hell, that's what I thought Jaune was going to suggest. Hardly 3D chess.

I think it's more a case of Miles is a cuck as a writer and he doesn't even want his boi to be surviving let alone thriving. Hell I'd say that's the case for all the male characters he does the writing for. The other writers could also be at fault, but with every Male character in the show one of two things happen, they're always destined to be incompetent, and they need to get saved by the strong waman characters or they get portrayed as someone who's gone insane or someone with bad morals simply cuz they don't agree with team RWBY's morals thus leaving no room for a morally grey character that doesn't simp for team RWBY. If it weren't for the fact that Rooster Teeth has gone woke and he's probz just doing this to keep his job, I'd say that Miles is a literal beta male with a hardcore submission fetish if he always wants his character to be saved by the heroes instead of actually becoming a hero.

​​@@brainflash1 Care if I add onto that? Jaune sees it replace a limb, and has Ruby and Ren destract it. Meanwhile, have Nora destroy and nearby trees or boulders to prevent it from replacing it's armor and limbs. With nothing left to jump into or repair itself with, they finish it off. Nora breaks it apart from a backside attack, breaking the main body, and with nothing for it to jump into, it becomes vulnerable, for an easy kill from Ren or Ruby.

@@theprofesionalist7927probably RWBY as a whole needs to be women focused

@@whateverwhatever4476 Okay, but just cuz the protags are women doesn't mean they have to be the coolest characters on screen 100% of the time. A gud show/movie that truly embraces diversity knows how to hand the spotlight over to both men and women for an equal amount of time even when one of them are MC's and one of them aren't and I like many true fans of the show would say that they nailed this in the first 3 volumes of the show when they still had Monty around to workshop ideas with their writing team, which is why Miles is such a cuck compared to previous male leaders that show's writing team has had in the past.

The one thing Osamu does have going for him from the start is that he's cunning (distinct from being smart). He'll actively weaponize the enemy's expectations and get them to make wrong moves, because he recognizes that he's not here for a good match, he's here for a win.

I think one thing to note is that osamu is smart, it’s just that in the elites of world trigger, normal person smart is equivalent to nothing. So his arc focuses a lot on learning how to actually utilise his skills, and by extension finding out what’s he’s good at in service of his team. To the point that in the current part of the manga, he’s a formidable force to be taken seriously by those previously stated elites

I mean it is very accurate considering he is ranked 16th of his class. So currently in the story he's ranked number two in his class in Mikado junior high

also the fact that there are situations where he's not expecting for it to happen, he usually has an immediate response. he usually fails tho because he's limited by his trion. like he's fast to do a counter attack. he is just weak.

Tbf, he's smart, but he was "junior high kid thinking of becoming a salary man" smart. He's had to learn basically everything practical about Border and Triggers in less time than the readers/viewers at this point. It's just that most of the other team leaders have been gunning for their position for 2-4 years by the time he decided to join, and typically have enough skill to overcome their own shortcomings. And the main exceptions are a pair of lifelong soldiers from the neighbourhood.

While actively nerfing the mcs Yuma: Can't use black trigger Osamu: Low Trion Chika: Can't shoot people (until recently)

@@mr_0n10n5 And even with Chika being able to shoot. She's still a glass-cannon with a lack of experience compared to her peers. Requiring her to have some sort of protection or fail-safe to be used properly.

​@@mr_0n10n5 Even [Spoiler] couldn't handle being ganged up on in the final round. Really tells that experience and skill alone won't let you solo so many people attacking at once, let alone elite agents.

​@Aquapike and chika strength is also her weakness she shoot once every body know where she is and they will surround her real quick

@@ayhcenkard2965 that's every sniper though? I guess the weakness would be her lack of mobility due to her specialization in heavy artillery

DBZ Abridged Vegeta: KAKAROT DID IT BETTER YOUR NOT SPECIAL!

"You magnificent bastard, I'VE READ YOUR BOOK!"

*braincell at once

The only real strategy he did was the nail tactic in season 1 against the scorpion grim.

"WE HIT IT TILL IT DIES!"

and also at the same time the story recognices that he is being too soft and not letting Chika challenge her own trauma, giving her an easy escape so she doesnt need to go through the ordeal of overcoming it. With Hyuse being the one that actually challenges her to overcome her trauma. Offering both sides and giving validity to both of them while recognicing the problems that can occur with each one.

@@MokonaModokiES YES! Osamu is too nice to push her like that, and seeing that it helps Chika to be pushed also lets him grow too.

​@@MokonaModokiES Absolutely. The show doesn't start him as a great leader, it in fact kind of shoves him in as a mediocre but not awful leader, but it lets him grow over time as he starts to get a feel for his responsibilities and the tools he has access to.

I do agree. In the beginning Osamu is very much a beginner who is paired up with this extremely experienced, neighbour expert who despite his own weaknesses is a far superior tactician and power house, Osamu meanwhile was often just diving into dangerous situations without entirely understanding his own weaknesses or strength and even through the process of learning, is often merely the sacrificial peace in any given plan or can't go the distance. Yet he not only overcomes his own downfalls by forming a style that fits his circumstances, but gradually improves to monitor others to better use their talents and ultimately finally becomes the lynchpin of one of his plans, admitively Chica's own development in actually taking a killing shot played a pretty big role in that, something even he nor anyone else had expected. His journey is less about becoming a badass strategist, though he is certainly becoming that, but is more about him becoming a valuable member of society despite being extremely weak on paper. Compared to either of the neighbours he's still pretty green behind the ears, but given that they have both lived in an inhospitable landscape? Osamu is making good progress. His real strength now is knowing his weakness and is coming up with strategies that made best use of what he and others had, so that ultimately he didn't have to depend on Yuma or any other powerhouses bailing him out all the time, which wasn't the case early on. Potential spoilers (Can't remember where the anime ends.) Even Yuna in a sense is nerfed, because his real body is fatally wounded and is being contained in his Trion body, so his actual output might be much higher if he ever recovers. Though it's the main reason behind him not being able to age, as his body repersents the age of a small child when he was badly wounded. Pretty sure it was covered early on though, and I don't actually remember that clearly what he set out to do.

@@lordbiscuitthetossable5352 Kuga's injury and what his black trigger does is very much covered in the show, pretty early on if memory serves, though it was heavily implied that he at least believes that his real body is irrecoverable. It was portrayed as either an indefinite stasis or slow inevitable decline until that real body dies, taking him with it.

Absolutely. I just didn't wanna spoil lol

@@KaiserShounen good call i was so suprised and hyped when i read that for the first time

@@dutch7207 Same

Fr that last shot was beautiful. I was screaming "pls be hound pls be a hound ohh let that be hound!"

Yesss, it was so climatic, everyone looked so down to Osamu, but he sweeped their feet and made them fall like a pro

Exactly she wasn’t afraid him, hell her going to Beacon (and later refusing to talk to him when he cut her off from the family money) was her showing that didn’t she give a fuck about what he had to say or what he would do.

She may not have been "scared" but that doesn't mean she wanted to go back.

They’re headed to Atlas anyways, all to prevent Salem from getting the Relic. If Weiss has no problem going back to Atlas to fulfill that end, and if she’s not scared of her father, then she shouldn’t have any issue going by herself to contact Ironwood, especially if the alternative is to steal an aircraft from the Military.

World Trigger Slaps RWBY either way.

Honestly even before those scenes, her being afraid of him made no sense considering how she literally went to a school teaching her how to fight monsters and is shown she is more than capable of doing it. It's the equivalent of Superman having a abusive parent but said parent is incapable of landing a scratch on him and they keep breaking their hand anytime they try.

Same, i watched a huge lot of rwby and litteraly didn't know the whole time jaune was supposed to be a strategist

I think its was originally a lie Pyrrha told him to make him feel better

At first I thought he would be a tank, ya know the whole 'He have a tons of reserve aura' thing,but after Mounty, he was reduced to 'generic Paladin'

Nah, it was like this prior to Monty’s death too. Jaune got the team leader position during the fight against the scorpion. In said fight all he did was just tell each member to attack, but not even what to do. Just went “Ren!”, “Phyrra!”, “Nora!”. How is he the strategist? Heck, if he outlined the plan prior, he wouldn’t even need to tell them when to go cuz they’re already know, so that’s no excuse either. The writing tanked massively without Monty for reasons, but it’s not like it was super well written prior either. It was carried by the potential and Monty’s fights.

No he is not, he is the inspirational character, this vid compare the wrong people

I wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment except for replacing the operator. I think what they have is fine and that there are enough character dynamics and team building to work with without needing to develop another member much. Totally not just cause I think her character is cute or anything lol

@@KaiserShounen I am fine with her too. I don't think that replacing her is a particularly necessary move per se, just that it's the move I expect. I see significant differences in the level of detail of her development and how she fits compared to the rest of Tamakoma-2 and comparing their dynamic to other squads in the show. The other squads seem to view their operators as very much part of the squad and are usually all friends and peers of similar ages, though exceptions where squads are a pack of young talents being trained by their older veteran captain are also common. Compare this to Tamakoma-2 who basically got assigned their operator because she was there and available with her being somewhat older and taking a more mentoring role, that is a significant outlier compared to literally every other operator of every other squad we see. Additionally the show hasn't put very much effort/detail into characterizing her when compared to our core trio. This looks to me like the show is preparing or at least leaving the door open for a technically and/or strategically minded character who is not particularly suited/talented/equipped for combat to appear and join the crew as their operator later on. Likely taking some time and forming a bond with the min trio before ultimately taking over that role. The show could equally decide to put more time and effort into developing that kind of relationship and pull in their current operator, but if that was the case I would have expected that kind of pattern from the start.

He held off the entire Katori squad for quite a while so he has at least some rizz. The main thing is the other characters in the show also progress, and they keep climbing the ranks, so it's hard to see his improvement. Still he hasn't gotten absolutely destroyed in the last two seasons, so he's probably at the point where he can win a 1v1 vs most lower b-ranks

@@VertexPlaysMC The main thrust of my argument is that Osamu hasn't gotten STRONGER, he's gotten BETTER. He has almost exactly the same level of raw power and pretty close to the same set of tools as when he started, but his greater experience and ability to take decisive action makes him far more valuable as a teammate and far more troublesome as an opponent. Bottom B-Rank is intentionally soft competition in this show mainly there for get swept aside by actual threats or even be the squishy thing that needs to be protected at times. Osamu fits in down there at the start of the series but now they are not even a threat to him and that's kinda the point. He no longer looks, feels or acts like a bottom rank agent. He has earned his place on the upper end of the scale WITHOUT fundamentally changing who and what he is.

One of my favorite scenes in World Trigger is when Osamu was actively trying to get stronger, people shut him down because there's no way he can get strong fast enough and other people not getting just as strong as well.

To be fair I did mention that Osamu grew into the role naturally and through constant failures and setbacks whereas Jaune had very little of that. Maybe I could have hammered that in more but I'm pretty sure that was clear. That says, you are right that I should have mentioned that other WT characters have mentioned how dangerous Osamu is as a strategist. Osamu will forgive me for my sins.

The training he's doing is barely training at all, just basic swings. And we don't even see him use THAT in combat either.

@@brainflash1I’d say that’s because Ray gust is mostly used for a shield and more realistically he’s a shooter - the training of which has been shown or talked about.

@@RiRyn27I think he’s talking about jaune

​@KaiserShounen Personally I think we're comparing Apples to Oranges here. A better comparison is Jaune to Sooka. Since Jaune was supposed to be that in RWBY. Both had no real talents, both had a love arc so to speak, both started off as somewhat as Sholes, but both had potential to be something more. Starting with Sooka, he was left in charge by his father to protect the tribe, he has no bending abilities in contrast with his sister, and only really had good planning skills, a boomerang and was often the straight man in many situations while at times being a sarcastic smart-ass at others. Throughout the series, we see Sooka grow and mature, he is the planner, he is the idea guy, someone who is out of the main action but has out there ideas that work "Such as Airship Slice, disabling the drill, using the boomerang to defeat Sparky-Sparky Boom Man, and planned an escape, from an inescapable prison, twice" More so, he was a great character that clearly grew with the rest of the others. And while he had his "Butt of the joke" moments, he was important to the team. Now Jaune, despite my like of the character, is all over the place. For starters, he is meant to be a side character, apart from Team RWBY. Next, is that his introductions in season 1 aren't that good with his cringed flirting. Now while it could be explored better, Jaune got little screen time for it to develop. "Did he tell the others, do we see why he decided to do that, was he punished for it, nothing." Next came Season 2, where he essentially just flirted with Weiss and failed for the first half. Again, something the audience probably didn't want to watch. It was only in later episodes, such as the dance where he shows a better character development and moved on from the failed romance with Weiss and into the failed romance with Pyrrha. His tactics, while similar to Sooka's, aren't as respected as such. While hitting it harder, is a meme by this point, it made sense, but he explained it poorly. Imagine the Battle where he sees it lose an arm and use a nearby tree to replace it's body. Seeing this, Jaune could've told Ruby to keep up the pressure and aim for the limbs, meanwhile have Nora destroy every nearby tree, rock and anything around them it could use to replace it's missing limbs. It would then try to replace an arm, only for it to not find anything fast enough, then with Nora rejoining the Battle, they take down the legs, the other arm, and while the Geist is vulnerable, Nora smashes it's torso and kills it instantly, not a much better outcome, but a better tactic in a sense. Which brings us to the fact, Jaune's not a tactic anymore. His writing is all over the place. Is he a main character or side character, is he a fighter, a tactician, the white mage, or something else. Is he the straight man, the comic releif, the Hero's Journey character, just what is Jaune's character now? Now, with all of that being said, I think the real issues aren't necessarily Jaune's character, but rather he is becoming other characters as a result of RUBY'S writing. Simplicity is a good thing to have, and why Sooka is successful. He doesn't have some horrible backstory like Aang or Zuko, or Bending like the benders, or some sort of overly dramatic scenes. He is Simplic that grows throughout the series and matures. Jaune however, he's too over the place. The Simplicity he had is gone and now he's sadly just a charactiture of what he was supposed to be, something that isn't just Jaune, but nearly all the characters in RWBY now.

Ikoma is too Chad for strategy

Aerial Ikoma Senku is really damn cool

Who the hell needs a strategy when you can slash the entire map and be done with it? Ikoma rulz.

Every other teams are planning n shit and his team is literally just “hey I discovered that this food combo actually rocks” “wow damn I should try it”

And the best part of this? His team has one of the smartest person in the entire series.

Its... a start but I feel like it opens more issues lol

@@KaiserShounen I'm pretty sure he wasn't actually from a "line" of warriors, he just had the one famous ancestor that he got his weapon from.

@@brainflash1 no he says his father, grandfather and great grandfather were all warriors.

@@KaiserShounen Shit. That does make it worse. When did he say that?

@@brainflash1 Literally in the big conversation with Pyrrha on the roof lol

I'm someone who's seen RWBY but not World Trigger and yeah no he's right RWBY's writing is really bad like fun fact jaune is basically a self insert for the head writer which I guess explains who's writing all those jaune harem fics on AO3

They also let Penny of all people take the staff.

Honestly should've just chucked it

Rwby is as an example on how NOT to write a show.

@@HamasAreTerrorists If nothing else, it is the prime example of how to make your show unnecessarily serious, ruining everything else, highlighting all of your mistakes, simply through unrealistic expectations. Monty's priorities on fights and Miles and Jerry's writing experience meant this show had the depth and seriousness of The Looney Toons. But M&K compared themselves to Cowboy Bebop and Avatar the Last Airbender. Sokka not understanding waterbending for the sake of giving us exposition in the first episode was built into the backstory, the plot, and culminated across the entire story to Sokka and The Boiling Rock and Katara and Bloodbending. Jaune not understanding a single thing about his world is a plot hole that grows like a Black Hole with time and would have only been acceptable if it was punchline revealed that he's actually an Isekai main character from our world.

It's oddly consistent how nobody in RWBY outside of the main characters inner circle seems to know about aura and such, including the weirdos who decide making settlements in the woods is a good idea. I really feel like the writers assume ordinary people are just really dumb, or something, but I have no idea why they would, or how they could possibly reach that conclusion.

@@dr.archaeopteryx5512 And again I stress, if the show was whimsical and funny, we wouldn't care as much. Exhibit A: Dragon Ball Z has the EXACT SAME map as RWBY. Five great cities that are well-protected, and outside of them? Effing dinosaurs and faunus gangs!!! But when is the last time you heard someone call DBZ's worldbuilding a critical flaw? Because Toriyama, may God rest his beautiful soul, didn't actually try to write social commentary using Oolong. He put him in a Chinese communist uniform, sure, but his plotline was masquerading as a monster to collect beautiful brides who bullied him for money. The writer didn't try to make it 🤯 profound and thought provoking.

@@Cityweaver Yeah. And honestly with how badly RWBY is written, I still feel like DBZ might have more profound points on most things the former tried to tackle just by complete accident.

OMG THANK YOU! That was so fucking frustrating.

@@brainflash1 it was so dumb, so dumb.

Yeah the "lot of aura" thing is a incredibly contentious when the show doesn't even bother to show how Aura is measured besides the video game health bar on scrolls, which is contradictory as the bars show them as equal when Jaunes should be higher than most if not everyone. Frankly the only reason they did the lots aura thing, is in the same vein of why Aura is a thing in the first place. "How can Ruby swing a huge-ass scythe at guy and not kill him? or "how can we have our characters get hit without animated any battle damage exept when the plot demands it? Lets just say aura works like a forcefield until it breaks (nevermind the fact we don't have any visual cues of aura until volume 7). How can we make Jaune look weak and inexpierenced and not die in the process? He'll have a lot of aura and thus be able to tank more hits than most and we can use it for comedic slapstic." a lot of the issues can be summed up by writers using reverse cause and effect, where the writers already determine an effect they want than figure out the cause. Like they chose not to have Weiss and Qrow go to atlas is because they already wanted a conflict that leads to an over the top fight for the Finale and remove Adam from the eqaution.

@@curtislangdon8294 Well the thing is, neither of them are willing to leave the rest of the gang behind. And if Weiss goes back alone she'll be sent straight back to her father. The guy she just ran halfway across the word to get away from.

@brainflash1 That's an excuse, not an answer. They needed to steal a ship so they could have a huge fight with a mech and have a reson for Blake to seperate from the others so she can get blindsided by Adam so Yang can come to the rescue, finalize the so called growth of Bumblebee and get rid of abuse allegory character. Besides all that needs to happen is Wiess and Qrow being able to get into communications range, call Winter and sidstep going anywhere near Jaque if that was the issue. It also means that the other's would just sit around and wait in large numbers so Adam can't Ambush Blake without greator risk to himself.

I think you meant to say "Takeru is a gay area"

Same

Really appreciate it man. I try to be as thorough as possible. Let me know what other World Trigger topics you want me to cover

​@@KaiserShounen maybe the current manga arc because many people seem the bash it for no good reason even though i suspect that they are just venting that the manga is a monthly release.

You could just make him one though. I mean, I personally figure he deserves at least one unambiguous talent. There's no reason has to be AS pathetic as the show keeps making him. I'm fine with him being the worst fighter and the worst student, but he should at least be a good at history class since his family's past was his primary motivation for becoming a huntsman.

@@brainflash1 he doesn’t have to be the completely gormless schmuck he’s been made out to be.

@@brainflash1 Yeah. Like I said, you can just establish that he is trained but just has less aura than everyone else. Have him be insecure about that but give him a smart or creative mindset.

@@KaiserShounen you don't need to give him less aura, just do the Naruto explaination: the more Chak-... I mean, Aura you have, the harder it is to learn to control it. Problem solved. You could even still keep the ass pull from Volume 5 with his semblance cause that is consisten with the original explaination about how it's unlocked (train hard or get into really dangerous and stressfull situation), just make literally everyone in the room do nothing while it happens.

There's also that guy (forgot his name) with the Ace Ops who pretty much has an incredibly broken ability, which...for some reason...well, you get the rest.

Even baki characters feel smarter, and half of the time, they're punching their braincells out

My pleasure. It is a must see. Glad you enjoyed it

@@KaiserShounen Black Lagoon is pretty great.

Well, as they say: "write what you know"

Cinder has the greatest benefit of all: plot armor.

I would say at least the *way* he tried to steal an airship was pretty clever. And it would've worked if Adam hadn't shown up.

@@brainflash1you can blame Blake for that.

@@brainflash1 I mean, maybe. The Atlas military doesn't seem to have an idea about proper storage procedures, which involve counting stock, material, and number of vehicles in inventory. Volume 2 clearly showed Atlas was lacking in security. But eventually, Atlas units would probably know one of their airships is missing if the Atlas soldiers assigned to that airship call in their ship missing. But then the Volume 7 intro rolls in, and shows team RWBY disobeying Atlas ATC while Atlas military units are on active guard stance and patrol, including other air units.

@@Number1RivalJaune’s dumbass plan only succeeded because the Atlas military is consistently made out to be utterly incompetent in all aspects. Hell they would be fucked if they checked Weiss’s bag and found Maria, something that would be a simple security measure after everything that happened.

Either way, the narrative kinda sucks at writing him as either one.

@@KaiserShounen indeed

I mean, to be fair, in V4 C1 he does bemoan the fact that since he's seen as the strategist of his team, he apparently doesn't need a weapon, leading to him getting his ass kicked by the grimm Team RNJR was fighting. It's just that RWBY doesn't really present strategy or the idea of on the fly analysis all that openly or frequently.

Jaune, and RWBY as a whole, can be summed up as wasted potential.

Yes but that would be just mean lol

@@KaiserShounen which part?

Comparing the worldbuilding@@indigodemipanther739

Who would you be hurting? RWBY fans?@@KaiserShounen

Yeah thats such a good moment that would make for a neat comparison but I want people to see that fight for themselves.

Jaune's set up in Volume 1 and 2 is like watching a multi head dragon twist its necks into a knot. It's like the wroters want him to be a natural born tactician/leader with the "Run and Live" strategy that everyone agrees with during initiation, but the show also wants him to not know about anything related to Huntsman, but then it also wants him to somehow have gotten into Beacon with forged papers and somehow he knew how to get those papers, but somehow he's a rather terrible student in both combat and in normal classes, and is potrayed as a dumb goof with a heart of gold. The only thing Jaune has going for him is that apparently he's a fast learner, but practically everyone on Team JNPR and RWBY are fast learners. Also that huge amount of Aura and the healing/Aura boost he can do. But he could've died before even getting the chance to have his Aura unlocked had Pyrrha not possessed the mystical force of the missile guidance system.

@@Number1Rival Pretty much yeah. The only reason why Jaune survived the initiation was because of Pyrrha (his "landing strategy" would've broken his body, if not killed him, had Pyrrha not intervened). I've heard others complain that Jaune got away with so much since he's more or less Miles' self-insert. I'd partially agree why, even if I don't think being a self-insert by itself would necessarily mean it has to be bad (I mean it can, but it depends on the writing). Honestly, reading your bit about Jaune not being so good makes me think back to Power Rangers. If whatever installment was well-told, the red ranger of the group would show proper leadership skills, whether it'd be up front or hinted at and developed over time. 2002's Wild Force stick out to me since its red ranger recently joined the group yet grew into a leader throughout the series. Even in Kamen Rider (aka the big sibling to Power Ranger's original source material) has this. In the 2002 series Kamen Rider Agito, you had a small team of police officers managing a special power suit to help fight the monsters of that series. Leading that team was a small yet incredibly resilient genius who had the admiration and respect of her men, since she could deal with politics within the police force while also come up with new formulas and whatnot to help win whatever fight. And like JNPR, they were part of the main cast but not the main focus. Unlike JNPR, they were done better.

@@krraika1847i remember Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight, I liked it.

​@@thomasraines1396 I think there are still some episodes on RU-vid. The acting might not be that good at time, and I'd say show does get a bit wonky in its last 3rd, but the overall story works. I was kinda surprised to see how many fans preferred KRDK over Ryuki (especially since I had first seen Ryuki as a kid back in the mid 2000s), and I've been leaning into that more recently.

@@krraika1847 the last thing I remember seeing is after Kit got “vented” and they brought back a bunch of the old Riders. I watched it on the CW on Saturday mornings so I don’t know if they had anymore after that.

But the real problem here is RWBY's show is about Ruby and her team, not Jaune and his team. If it's all about Jaune then the show's name should be JNPR (or JNR after volume 3)

spread the word, peeps

I am a Megaman X fan and a World Trigger fan too

I binged WT not long ago on Netflix, I am fucking disappointed I have to wait for new season now

Jaune is voiced by Miles Luna, one of the writers for RWBY

@@KaiserShounen Thank you

He’s better in the books and Rebels from what I understand and I’m not even a massive Star Wars fan.

@@thomasraines1396 It has been years since I've read the Thrawn Trilogy and Hand of Thrawn duology, but I'd agree. Even in Rebels, he seemed to have a hint of the genius he had in the books (he did get defeated by space whales in Rebels, though). With Jaune, it might be more appropriate to compare him more to other leaders like Robin from Teen Titans or Leonardo from TMNT 2012. In those cases, the characters are not so much powerful than their teammates (Robin literally having no powers and Leo first seen losing his match with Raphael) but they exhibit traits where they not only plan ahead but think while they're fighting too. Robin was a leader from the get-go but struggled with his obsession of fighting Slade over time, which required help from his friends, while Leo started out struggling but worked his way to become a someone who could lead and look out for his team. And Jaune is... well, he's Jaune (even Nora said so in Vol 3!).

@@krraika1847 thank you for the clarification. And Teen Titans is just great. I haven’t watched 2012 TMNT but I hear it’s good.

@@thomasraines1396 Yeah, Teen Titans is good. 2012 TMNT in fun but it has its problems, e.g. the shipping (which REALLY hampers otherwise potentially great characters like April, Donnie, and Casey), and the drawn out arcs during season 3 and 4, anything after season 4's finale, etc. Then again, I'm biased towards TMNT 2003 (first 4 seasons though, since s5 and afterward go off the rails).

@@krraika1847 I really enjoyed the 2003 series I didn’t really like the whole dragons thing they did.

I agree that there is a lot of gleam over with Jaunes development in v9, but again, the main focus of the video is between Jaune and Osamu. Osamu has yet to have a similar route of development in that area (mostly due to the authors health) so it be far from useful to bring it up and pad the video. Hope you understand.

@@KaiserShounen No worries, it was more of a critique of Crwby's handling of Jaune than any fault on your part in the video. If anything you've brought interest for this Anime World Trigger so gonna try and check it out ASAP.
