"The Justice League meets the heroes of RWBY in animation this April"

Huh. That could be kinda neat maybe.

Watch on YouTube

"The Justice League is facing off against a new horror: adolescence! Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Cyborg, Green Lantern and Vixen are surprised to find that not only have they materialized on a strange world called Remnant, but they’ve also been transformed into teenagers. Meanwhile, the heroes of Remnant – Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang – find their world has been mysteriously altered. Can the combined forces of the Justice League and Team RWBY return Remnant to normal before a superpowered Grimm destroys everything they know?"

That reminds me, again, that I should probably someday get back into watching RWBY (massive spoiler warning for the comments under that post), considering that I pretty much stopped watching it after I got caught up to the then current end of Season/Volume 6, but they've made a couple more after that. *shrug*

I believe they're up to volume 8 released for RWBY now - at least that's as far as I've got on dvd/bluray, and I do tend to buy them when I see them at Sunrise Records. Naturally I'll likely be picking this up too when I see it.

Granted my interest in the series has dwindled some in the later volumes, if only because each volume ends up being 2-3 hours of them trying to resolve whatever conflict is going on just in time for the next big thing to happen while nothing overall gets resolved. ^^ I suppose I enjoyed it more in the first few volumes before shit started getting heavy. Which also happens to be before the original creator died. Looking over the series you can see the effects of it with the fight choreography dropping like a rock at a point. Granted it's gotten better over time after that, but imo it still hasn't gotten close to what it was. ^^

I'd like it if they'd gather up all the chibi adventures that are/were on the website before and put those on disc as well. Pretty sure I haven't seen it released at any rate. I know I'd buy it in a heartbeat if I saw it in stores.

If I get back into it again, I'm seriously going to have start from the beginning again, because I remember next to nothing about it. Even reading back through all those spoiler filled comments in that earlier post, I only vaguely remembered what actually happened in the show, in the broadest sense, especially all the stuff that came after they left the initial town/school. Which was pretty much the entire second half of what I watched of it (vol 4-6).

I do remember the fights becoming more... ...realistic, to describe it charitably? I mean, for magic fighting, anyway. None of the crazy over-the-top (i.e. cool as fuck) stuff that Monty Oum was famous for, that's for sure.

As for what's going on in the later volumes, I figure it's all pretty much filler until those two gods come back again (assuming that they haven't already returned, since I know almost nothing about what happens in vol 7 and 8, other than that Penny apparently comes back, given that they spoil that in the video thumbnails).

And yeah, RWBY Chibi is definitely worth its own release. Doesn't look like they've done anything else with that since I originally watched it, though. Last ep was released around four and a half years ago, according to the timestamp on the website. That kind of sucks.
