Moving Along: RWBY series 6

I was interested enough in seeing where RWBY would go with its four main characters reunited at the close of its fifth series. My expectations a sixth series would be shown on Crunchyroll soon after premiering didn’t turn out, though. Instead, the new instalments seemed to be streaming in ways I hadn’t already worked out how to access. Instead of chasing them all the way there, I fell back (even as I was plugging through some not that enthralling manga takes on an “overseas property”) to looking and waiting for a home video release and finally “taking a chance on something bought sight unseen.” In the meantime, a new series from Rooster Teeth did appear on Crunchyroll, but having already decided to spend a good chunk of this year watching mecha anime from the 1980s left me wondering if I should wait as well to take in their effort at the genre (as opposed to the giant robots thrown into RWBY every so often as part of the general “anime-esque” mix) a bit more uninfluenced by comparisons to the stuff everyone else always seems to let overshadow anything merely recent.
( At not quite the final moment... )
