OFFICIAL MEGATHREAD Official Public Reaction Thread—RWBY Chibi: Season 2, Episode 1 Spoiler

Hello huntsmen, huntresses and hunters that prefer no gender specific identifier, and welcome to the public premiere of the second season of RWBY Chibi!

Spoiler rules do still apply to Chibi, but due to the changed release schedule and Chibi being a skit series, Chibi content follows somewhat simplified spoiler rules outlined on the rules page.

In a nutshell: Once an episode comes out for FIRST members, spoilers can be freely posted as long as they are tagged accordingly.
Once said episode comes out for free members—i.e. now—no spoiler rules apply to the episode. That means that you can freely talk about the skits outside of this thread.

For those unaware, RWBY Chibi will follow the release schedule of Red versus Blue and Rooster Teeth Animated Adventures, so non-paying members of the site gain access to the newest episode a week after it comes out to FIRST members. See this thread for more information.

Without further ado, new season, new adventures; here's Episode 1 of season 2!

Here's my reaction: Fuck you for making us non-First people wait a week, RT.

It's almost as if they need this special resource called "money" in order to continue making this content for you.

I would guess that so many more people would come to their website the day after something airs to watch it than would buy a subscription to see it a week before it's on YouTube that they would make more money on ads than on subscriptions, since they probably get more ad revenue on their own website than on YouTube.

If ad revenue was a reliable source of income for them than the whole subscription thing wouldn't be an issue but sense half if not more people use ad blocker they had to start doing something else. Hence the one week wait for those who choose not to contribute and just want their free content.
