User blog:Gundam Legilis/The things closest to RWBY

Hello everybody!

I have a question to you. What do you think RWBY reminds you of?

Well, I give you a few answers of mine.

1. Final Fantasy XV

This game shares excellent backgrounds, a more realistic background and a magitech world complete with its own Glyphs with RWBY. Combine this with the kingdoms, a military force, and the limited resources called Crystals that remind me of Dust, and you've got RWBY's closest competition. Also, note the main four-person cast.

2. Bionicle

This franchise shares color coded characters, a deep background story, again, another magitech world, and a versatility for creativity. Before RWBY fandom and its OCs, you could literally build up Bionicle OCs, based on the Bionicle line being an offshoot of Lego.

3. Harry Potter

The school universe fighting the dark forces, with its own combat classes, with the normalistic use of "magic" as a combat tool, along with the Dumbledore and McGonagall, should be all too familiar to both Harry Potter and RWBY. Not to mention that the majority of the cast being teenagers as well.

4. Fairy tales and legends

Many characters are legend-based.

5. Various anime

It's easy to spot the shout-out a mile away.

Thoughts?
