Encountering a barrier on the trip to Atlas, learning more about the power of silver eyes, coming across fractures that leave our heroes on an ominous cliffhanger — all in all, another well-written episode for RWBY: Volume 6.

My 2 Cents on Legend
If you're rummaging through the seemingly-endless heap of YA dystopian science-fiction novels, keep your eyes peeled for the silver-and-golden dust jacket of Legend by Marie Lu (Warcross, The Young Elites).
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 7, “The Grimm Reaper”
From a peek at a pair of conniving villains and the backstory of a legendary Huntress to the inspiring progress of Team RWBY and company's journey, "The Grimm Reaper" is yet another laudable chapter that Rooster Teeth has brought to RWBY: Volume 6.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 6, “Alone in the Woods”
Enthralling action, heartfelt nuggets of nuanced characterization, and a newfound Grimm species qualify "Alone in the Woods" as one of my favorite RWBY: Volume 6 episodes thus far.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 5, “The Coming Storm”
Overall this is a step up from the easygoing tempo of "So That's How It Is," although it still doesn't achieve the trademark pace of action that I have come to expect from Rooster Teeth's fantasy anime web series.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 4, “So That’s How It Is”
Rather than progressing RWBY: Volume 6 through another significant point in its journey, "So That's How It Is" feels more like three mild scenes straggling along the road to the next episode.
My 2 Cents on Marvel’s Cloak and Dagger
Marvel's Cloak & Dagger is yet another small part of Marvel Comics that has been auspiciously brought to life, not just because of the protagonists' personal struggles and superpowers, but also because of socially knowledgable undertones that aren't featured much in the rest of the Marvel Cinematics Universe.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 3, “The Lost Fable”
I firmly believe that a story can either shine or collapse on the integrity and empathic quality of the antagonist's backstory. "The Lost Fable" succeeds in this field by presenting a rounded perspective on Salem's downward spiral from a freedom-loving young woman to an immortal entity with a pure desire for destruction.
My 2 Cents on Timeless
Timeless is a doozy of a show, zipping you along with the Time Team through two entertaining seasons of time-traveling missions.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 2, “Uncovered”
I put out a theory that Rooster Teeth most likely wouldn't bring Cinder Fall back from the dead in my review for "Argus Limited," the first episode of RWBY: Volume 6. Well, that just proves how even the best of us end up eating our words.
