Story Synopsis
In RWBY, the world of Remnant is filled with horrific monsters bent on the destruction of humanity. Fortunately, the kingdoms of the world have risen to combat these forces by training powerful Huntsmen and Huntresses at academies around the planet. Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long are four such Huntresses in training.
That's so cool that a small series has now transformed into something big! Not to mention it was created in the west and Japan really likes it!
This is a sign of the times changing. Let's hope more passionate artists from around the world get noticed!
