RWBY: Volume 8 (2021)
Epic!
Super, super intense and dark, but in all the best ways. The sense of scale and stake is incredibly well-built, and the story and the actions of the characters really convey how hard it can be to make the right decisions when the world is crashing down around you.
The animation is great as always, and the fight scenes are top-knotch. This volume more than any other really feels like the one where everything just comes to a head, where everything the show's building towards is finally here, and in my opinion it doesn't disappoint! It is definitely an emotional, gut-wrenching ride, though, one of the darkest volumes for sure.
RWBY: Volume 7 (2020)
Favorite volume!
Last few episodes in particular are absolutely amazing... fight scenes are some of the best in the series, music is probably also my favorite out of all the volumes, and the way the tension steadily grows as the volume goes on is so well-done - the climax has so many layers to it, and keeps surprising you. The final monologue of the final episode is one of my favorite scenes in the entire series, it's so well-written.
The animation (especially in the last few episodes) is also incredible. I've always felt like no other show does fight scenes as well as RWBY does, and this volume is probably the one that best showcases that. Highly recommend :)
RWBY (2012)
Wonderful show that keeps getting better
I liked it from the start, but it really becomes amazing from volume 3 onwards. The animation and fight scenes are beautiful and fun to watch, and there are so many little details that show how much care was put into every aspect of it. It just does so much with so little screen time, and it keeps getting better with every season. The voice acting also gets better and better, and the later seasons have some of the best I've ever heard.
No show is perfect, but RWBY is genuinely one of the best around IMO. Highly recommend, whether you like anime or not - give it at least through volume 3 because the quality improvement from there is dramatic :D.
