This is the only RWBY amv you need to watch, honestly. This is pure perfection.jewelswhite5366 [7]
The mixing of SFX from the show with the music is brilliant, and done so well. Can't even imagine how hard it must've been to do it!The AMV is also really fun to watch. Scenes matching lyrics and audio tone so well, yet there's still such a chaotic mix of heavy action, painful drama, and lighthearted comedy - much like the show itself... though it is a pretty jarring transition at certain points :P

This is well edited but they ruined the tone by mixing in comedy scenesnebula-rain - Dec 7, 2017 [9]
OK THIS IS WHY U LOVE THIS! SO there is another AMV like this with this exact song but for Avengers, I saw that one eariler this week. Just like that video this one is not just a compilation of your favorite moments of RWBY to a good song but the lyrics and the sounds of the show and sing match oerfictly with the video being played and it just bloody works!ink----drinker - Oct 8, 2021 [9]
