They do? I could have sworn they have both pairs.

**LordofHats**

Well someone was inspired by the monkey king XD

That kid really is the monkey king. He even has a shotgun staff

**Mr Nobody**

That staff-pistol-nunchuck combo was pretty spectacular.

I was worried at first, but michael seems to be a decent voice actor.

Yeah, I thought it was cool, until Penny did her thing, then Holy Crap On A Cracker!

**CthuluIsSpy**

Well, I found Blake's VA to be as wooden as the last episode, but at least something is happening this time. Also, I have a feeling that the Monkey boy might be having a small fan following soon.

**DA's Forever**

Just caught up, and I got to say, holy feth, Whoever is coming up with these weapons is doing a damn good job. Well done, just sad thats all we get for now.

**whitedragon**

For serious, we were teased with all these trailers about Team RWBY before the series started and they were all badass, and all the girls ran around kicking serious ass. The series starts off and about the middle we finally get to see them kick some ass....

And then....we end up with a bunch of other side characters that seem more interesting and powerful than our "mains" that are supposed to be the badasses of the show.

When are we gonna get to see Team RWBY kick some ass?

Who cares.... As long as Nora keeps it up no one else is worth a damn.

Yang stole my heart.....and then has been just about worthless all season. It's killing me inside.

**LordofHats**

I can agree with the sentiment. For being the title characters, RWBY were on the sidelines for a decent chunk of the season. Now we have the guy with Gun-Chucks competing for time too. Granted I enjoyed the season. I just agree it comes off as a little weird.

That's exactly how I felt throughout the season.

And Blake, her trailer was badass with Adam, and hijacking a train and all that cool stuff, and then she gets all googly for monkey boy because she has ears? Like...WTF? What about Adam and whatever his organization/motives and that whole trailing backstory that is infinitely more cool than another weird anime cliche "main' character?

**CthuluIsSpy**

I'm sure Adam is part of the White Fang. You know how Weiss was talking about how her company's trains are robbed? You remember in the Black trailer how Adam wanted to kill those crew members and Black didn't want any of that?

**Snrub**

I thought the individual trailers were supposed to be set after the had graduated from their monster hunting uni.

**Mr Nobody**

I imagine that, as the trailers were being made, perhaps the story was still in flux and wasn't complete. That would explain why the trailers take place at unspecified times in the story line.

**KalashnikovMarine**

I got the sense the trailers all happened prior to the story.

Exactly. Didn't someone already mention that the train attacks Weiss mentions are exactly what Blake's trailer was about?

Exactly, Only one I felt might have happened before the story is Ruby's but as we see she's quite capable even before finishing the school they are at.
