Badass Huntsmen/Huntresses out saving the world from all kinds of varieties of Grimm. Potential for in-universe political tension. Skirmishes and large-scale battles. Oh and everything's a gun. Idk seems like it could be fun.
What system would you use? Or would it be better off being homebrewed? Semblance ruled with something resembling Sorcerer Points from DnD 5e?

Legends of the Wulin is the best fit, IMO. I know at least one person running a game in it already using the setting. It's full of ridiculous weapons and high action awesomeness, so it works really well.

I remember seeing the previews for rbwy way back years ago and thinking it looked like dogshit. I only liked the country girl with the shotgun punchy fists. Partially because fetish. Is she still on the show?
>>
>>45046033
She's one of the main characters, I haven't even watched the second season I think the third just ended and as far as I have heard only one character has died, and it wasn't a main character.

I severely doubt the payoff will be worth it though.
>>
>>45046106
I don't understand this kind of mentality. Why do people continue to watch things they know will be bad? When I pick up a new game, if it's not fun in the first hour or two, I usually return it. When I pick up a new anime, if it's not good in the first 3 episodes, I stop watching.

Why invest time on something that's not worth the time?

RWBY is my favourite at the moment, however...
The in-universe political tension really doesn't fit sometimes.
The animation gets better after each season, along with the plot and scrip writing.
It was better when Monty was in charge and alive though

>>45046187

RWBY aside, not giving things a chance is fucking retarded. Plenty of awesome shows take the writers half a season to find their groove, and then they're fantastic. It's a well documented phenomenon.
>>
>>45046187
the in-universe political tension makes no fucking sense.

I'm really liking the show because i think there's *some* cool ideas in there. It's way more suited to being adapted for vidya than /tg/ though.

>>45046388
Giving things a CHANCE is fine... giving them a chance for for 2 and a half seasons before they get good... not so much.

Such a shame they went with such a shit theme this year. I hope Williams gets his act together for next season's intro, because generally it's quite good.
>>
>>45047126

I like Feng Shui, but IMO it lacks the combet depth to really be appropriate.
>>
>>45046549
It's had it's high points and lows all along, they're just shifting. The music's been consistently good. The first two seasons had some pretty well choreographed fight scenes, and the animation steadily improved. Then the lead writer/director died, and the choreography (both in and out of fight scenes) went to shit so far in the third, but they're trying to climb back out. Meanwhile, the plot went from 'generic magic schoolgirl stuff' to 'actually existing' in the third season, so that's better.

It's not great, but it's also not consistently bad. Personally, I'm hoping Rooster Teeth eventually do what they did with the first seasons of RVB and record entirely new footage once they know how to competently produce it.
>>
>>45047171

>well choreographed fight scenes

Are they anything like the fight scenes in the preview videos? Because those were borderline unwatchable.
>>
>>45047157
Like RWBY has depth. It's about little girls ping-ponging around the battlefield, watching as they use their super-special gunswords and magic powers to tear up legions of monsters. Feng Shui lets you describe all that, throw some dice, and keep everything moving. Even Exalted isn't great at that.
>>
>>45047187

I can see why some people would prefer that, I guess it's a matter of opinion. I'd go with LotW, suggested above, as it's got the best high action combat system in any RPG I've ever played.
>>
>>45047182
Not really, the team improved a lot since them. I'd rate the episode where they choose teams pretty highly in terms of some fast-paced, flashy fights.

It's not some commercial show produced by a giant established team, but a show made by a few people who started off doing it for fun.
There is lots of room for improvement and there is lots of actual improvement. It's not something static.

>It's not some commercial show produced by a giant established team, but a show made by a few people who started off doing it for fun.

I don't really buy this one, tbqh. This was a dream project of Monty's, but it's not like it's something he made in his basement and built the fanbase from nothing- he brought the idea to RT and they gave him the resources to produce it. Rooster Teeth is a big company, with a large animation department who have been working more and more on producing original content instead of just machinima, and Monty was the spearhead for that work for years before RWBY existed. It's a work made by professionals for commercial reasons, even if they're not Pixar or Funimation and associates.

Motherfucker, the chuunni fight scenes are the only fucking reason to watch RWBY. Everything else sucks. I dropped the series by like episode 3 when I realized that it was going to be a shitty 3D anime with awful voice acting.

Shame that Yang was wasted on such a shit series, she is sexy as fuck and her shotgun gauntlets are badass.

>>45048727
It's baffling how the series that began as a comedy has better production, acting, and writing than the original action drama they hyped to the fucking skies.

RWBY is nothing short of baffling. Everything about it besides fight scenes and music is a train wreck of ginormous proportions but people keep eating this shit up.

I have a feeling that RWBY basically destroyed web television shows. Nobody is going to want to try their hand at the medium when it exists.

Yeah I have no idea why they didn't get anyone professional on the team. The whole production reeks of a bunch of amateurs trying their hand at something big and stumbling every step of the way.

Except in this case they pandered to casual-tier anime fans so they actually didn't crash and burn. However, I have seen a ton of RWBY "fans" trash the series yet keep watching it in hopes of it getting better and I am completely stumped by this.

Man, and I'm the kind of person who unironically likes chuuni shounen bullshit.

To be fair Monty was professional before he went and died and it is actually getting better particularly in the last few episodes. Admittedly there wasn't must of a bar to jump up from but it certainly feels much better now that The Plan is no longer some nebulous concept to justify all the running around and Jaune is getting less screen time.

You need to watch Symphogear. It's like RWBY if the creators actually knew what they were doing (but were still just as chuuni).

Weiss has the inherent advantage of not having her character design blatantly ripped off of a Blazblue character, so she wins in that department.

Blake is normal aside from being a loner (non-obvious cat trait), but she's afraid of dogs and easily distracted by laser pointers (obvious cat traits), though the later two are mostly just gags.

Honestly, I had to reroll a lot of powers with no fight scene applicability (or the power to win all fight scenes forever), but I stopped on this

The fact that many Faunus have the night vision of their animal counterparts is a major point in the setting's history and came up in Oobleck's history class.

>>45049722
Semblance: Multitasking
Ranged Weapon: Arm Cannon (Metroid)
Melee Weapon: Knife (Undertale)

So I would be able to fight in both melee and at ranged effectively at the same time.
>>
>>45043619
Honestly, the setting is the best thing about the show. You can ditch all the shitty animu characters and never culminated plotting from villains for having your players explore the setting, which is just detailed enough to prompt lots of ideas, but also vague enough that a whole lot of unknowns exist.

>I found the dialogue more tolerable than most anime
That's because RWBY is made by Western weebs, so you don't deal with that bizarre 'not-English' that most anime characters speak so as to synchronize mouthflaps.

>And the animation during is super funny, especially during fight scenes
Christ, the fight scenes are flaccid as fuck. The animation, especially circa S1 is dry and boring. They didn't even bother to animate background characters until S2.

No problem. It's not a well-known game, even in the anime emulation genre, though the book gets bonus points for actually taking Kickstarter money and turning it into an attractive product, with good art and functional indexes.

All you have to do, when someone says something you don't understand, is google "_____ rpg" and see what comes up on the first page
>>
>>45055854
Not just that, you can play (almost) anything else. The game is just dressed to look like an anime game. The Ricochet system is essentially GURPS-lite.

Takes some work to make more complicated concepts though.

http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Portal_Manipulation

Well I played Darkest Fungeon, and the last memorable guy I played was when I went after the prophet and the only survivor was my crusader.

So something along the lines of a two handed great sword that can shift into a boom stick if we stick to the gothic like feel of Darkest Dungeon.

Stragety would most likely evolve around using portals to close in with the enemy or bring myself into range at rediculous speeds to slice.

That or just create a portal near the guy at the end of my gun and just blast them.

Dagger/Minigun can't be much harder than Purse/Minigun.

>>45043574
Personally, I'd use FATE. It's open enough that you can customize it to work naturally with aura. Use Aura stress as a working system, give the weapons their own aspects, and make the semblances their own unique stunt that they can spend fate points to activate.

As for weapon, I always wanted a bow with sharpened limbs that became a set of two 3-pointed glaives, connected by wire. (Not the staff variety, I mean more the oversized melee shuriken variety.) The bow would be very long ranged, meant for sniping, and the glaive morph would be both melee and shortranged, because I'd be able to throw one glaive, and whip it around.

No clue as for semblance, though. Maybe invisibility/light manipulation. Or teleportation.

I remember a guys had these characters stated out for mythender, which while not exactly what you're looking for seemed like a really cool idea.

Season 1 of RWBY was practically bootleg produced, written and animated by 3 people.

If you've watched the podcasts Rooster Teeth was absolutely baffled and surprised by the amount of attention and the positive reaction they got to it.

Fucking *disney* bought the rights to localize it in japan (and brought in some big name actors for it) last I heard.

I guess how this power would work is that I'd drain the aura that other people have? Not actually use it for anything, but be more or less a null/negative in rwby universe.

A negative with just a knife. I suppose I could be some sort of assassin or anti-human specialist, but I'd be awful against grimm.

But that's wrong. Just go to S1E1 and look at the credits; 5 listed as model and enviroment artists, 2 lead animators, 4 regular animators, separate technical director and assistant, two editors... Even counting people who pulled double duty, you've got at least 10 people involved in the animation work, not to mention the music and the writing. The staff has grown over the years, but it's not bootleg; it seems like all the regular animators who work at RT did RWBY.
>>
>>45050879
I do, there's too much shitty dialogue in anime. I normally hate the standard anime VA's, I'd much rather hear something that is in English than the fucking weeb shit moon runes of fuck that grates on my ears.
The animation isn't the best, but there is something I like about it overall.
While anime is fucking retarded, I'll still watch it.

TL:DR I totally agree with you.

True, but season 3 also gave us Hibiki suplexing a crashing space shuttle, so it evens out.
Swan Songs use a "Dead Box" mechanic (see Tenra Bansho Zero). Instead of dice rolls, combat is resolved with a karaoke machine. Set out a jar of sake, and allow players to gain bonuses if they drink a shot - this both encourages bizarre plot twists, and increases combat difficulty.
