| With that dubbing cast set, I better prepare my body for the anime version. |
 |
| That's one step away from a full-on anime adaptation. Which would've made Monty Oum proud. Eager to see what the Japanese seiyuu cast will be for RWBY, they might outshine the originals. |

 I don't watch as much anime as before... |
| Next, a full anime adaption that is better than the original series. |
| Yay ! |
+Lunai+  |
| Odd that the manga got a page and the serie didn't...but guess it can change onde it's jap. dubbed. |
 |
| Oh god... Now the RWBY fags will be even more annoying about their "RWBY is an anime" bullshit. |

|
| If this gets an anime adaptation then I'll read it sometime later. |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| Low quality weeaboo trash going to Japan to just become trash? How exciting. |

| WEEBS OF THE WORLD, UNITE! RED, WHITE, BLACK, AND YELLOW DOESN'T MATTER WHAT COLOUR YOUR SKIN IS! |
| Not sure what to feel about this.. |
  |
| Cool, I might actually give this a try. Never seen RWBY before though. |
 |
| I've never seen RWBY before but I'd been planning to, so I might give this a shot. |
| And then: "RWBY manga to receive an anime adaptation". No, NO... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! |
| awesome |
| kuuul |
| I really like this series,. and i definitely agree that rwby is not anime. |
| If RWBY is getting a manga adaption, shouldn't the series RWBY be considered an ONA then? Even if it was a web series done by an American company not everyone will be aware of the web series when and if people start reading the RWBY manga. |

If it was the other way around it would be, but no. |
|
| I think i saw RWBY in Netflix.. I wonder if this series is good. |
 |
| YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally happened. RWBY can now officially be on this site. |
| RWBY is so hip by getting the whole process backwards. Can't wait for the novel adaptation next. :P |

| Never heard of RWBY before tbh, but we'll see |
 |
| Anime, animation - meh what's the difference? It's not like as this work is the only one that has this debate. As long as the art style is similar to those of Japanese works then it's one in my books in terms of my own definitions. But I'm definitely interested in reading the manga. I wonder how the mangaka will draw out the action scenes, especially the weapons & their transformations. |

So works that have art styles that differ vastly from the norm don't count as anime in your book? |

 |
| I'm undecided on whether I'll read the manga. On one hand, the art should be better and I'd like to see what it will look like. But on the other hand, if the story is going to be the same I'm not really interested as I thought it could have been better than it was. |
 |
| Outside of a few scenes, I haven't had the time to sit down and watch the web series. Maybe now I'll find the motivation to do so. |
| Sounds good. |
 |
| please no. |

ToraBlaze said: If something as shallow and uninteresting as RWBY gets a manga adaptation, that means that my novel will also receive a manga adaptation and then - an Anime. This is certain to happen, for my story is magnificent! P.S.: I hope RWBY never gets an Anime adaptation. We have 10 year olds now on MAL talking big. Hilarious. |
 |
| hopefully it will get REAL ANIME adaptaion |
