Slightly more specifically, Jaune is based of Joan of Arc because she disguised herself as a man to 'join' the French army to lead them in pushing the British out. Pyrrha is based off an adventure of Achilles' where he was dressed up as a woman (named Pyrrha) in order to hide.

Wicked way too much damage to the wizard of Oz lol

For all the characters references, spoiler free ^^ - Ruby Rose is based of Little Red Riding Hood (I mean, she's the most obvious of the bunch, designwise) - Weiss Schnee is based of Snow White (in german, Weiss means White, and Schnee means Snow) - Blake Belladona is based of Belle, from Beauty & the Beast (bookworm queen + "Belle", "Belladona", ykwim) - Yang Xiao Long is based of Goldilocks (the first Grimms she fought in these episodes were bear-like, and if you touch to her hair, brace yourself 8'DD) - Jaune Arc is based of Joan Of Arc (sword & shield combo for medieval aesthetic, and yea, Jaune is litteraly Yellow in french) - Pyrrha Nikos is based of Achilles (legendary greek hero of Troy's War, Nikos is I think reffered to the greek goddess of victory, Nikke, and her whole aesthetic is ancient greek flavored ~)

Morgan. First off, welcome to the Fandom. Second, when you finish Volume 3, please please pleaseπ do the World of Reminant afterwards. Elijah did it late, Mosco kinda listen. But if you do it see it before Volume 4 it will make some sense.

only just realized that a phrase I've highly associated with Weiss all these years actually came from Ruby XD! Fun fact RWBY has/had an official japanese dub because Japan ADORES rwby to the point where the first two episodes of certain seasons aired in theaters iirc! When Yang fights the Bears (a hint to who she's based on btw) she goes ORA ORA ORA ORA!!!!! :D

Is it a lot to ask if you could do 2 RWBY reactions a week? It'd be amazing if you caught up to Mosco and Elijah

Pyrrha also from it's firey meaning(I can't remember the exact wording but its something like flame like)
Phoenix Mackenzie
Yeah characters are based on originals rather than adaptations(one of the reasons Ren's is almost guaranteed to not be guessed for example)

Can you react to the soundtrack for each volume after each volume
Verdigree
You did clock Glynda's name, and thereby wonder if that man is the Wizard of Oz for that reason, I would just say that is name does happen to be Ozpin and he does happen to be wearing green, and these episodes do take place in the Emerald Forest, but I would also say Wicked the musical/movie/book is like a very big departure from the source material of the Oz books and movies
Verdigree
So the thing about Molly and blood was that the class he was was a homebrewed one called "Blood Hunter" that was about like blood magic, trading health for power
Verdigree
The red-headed girl is named Pyrrha, which is spelled that way because of the Greek derived saying "a pyrrhic victory", it's also kinda like "pyre". If you asked me about that scene, I would have said Weiss has a HUGE crush on Pyrrha but doesn't understand it and is doing the classic rich/mean girl thing of sublimating her feelings, perhaps not unlike Sasha in Amphibia
Verdigree
Oh yeah, Jeaune is French for yellow, and he said in the last episodes and these episodes that his name is Jaune Arc, perhaps you might wish to check out a little what her deal was on Wikipedia

Yeah early RWBY has some of the best random bits of humor. I love it
