RWBY

RWBY brings four very different girls together for one legendary purpose. These four fighters will come face-to-face with menacing creatures, devious villains, and an incredible cast of characters

RWBY (pronounced Ruby ) is a new series created by Monty Oum and released by Rooster Teeth Productions. The first trailer was released on November 7th 2012, showing "Red" Ruby fighting against a pack of Beowolves. The second trailer was released on February 14th 2013, showing "White" Weiss singing in front of a crowd and having a flashback to a fight with a Giant Armor.

The initials RWBY read Red, White, Black, Yellow, which corresponds to each main character's "color." Ruby is the first character to appear in the series. Weiss is the second character to appear in the series.

The first episode of the series is set to premiere live at RTX 2013.

Trivia

 * First footage of the show was seen on November 5th, 2012 when a trailer featuring Ruby was shown at the end of the Red vs Blue Season 10 Finale.
 * Before writing the show, creator Monty Oum gave the writers, Miles and Kerry, some "anime homework" to watch. One of said animes was Gurren Lagann.
 * In both Red and White trailers, it is heavily implied that both girls are orphans (Ruby at a gravestone, Weiss singing about being lonely). This could be what brings the characters together, or at least something in common.
 * Monty Oum has confirmed that the characters are not based on Fairy Tale characters, but instead just allude to or reference them.
 * According to a recent interview with Oum, the girls will be a team (appropriately named RWBY) and go to a school where they will be encountering various other "teams".
 * Names in this world must either be or refer to a color, and the team name has to make up the reference to said color.
