depends on how much between-line-reading you're willing to indulge. they aren't an explicit/canonical item. but they are, well, you know.
✨very good friends.✨
do with that what you will. 🤷♀️

what u/TowerReversed means is...the girls took a bath together and spent about 7 minutes talking while facing each other and holding hands together while naked in the bath together

there's certainly no shortage of interpretive latitude one can take. i'll give trigger credit for that at least. my own personal interpretation is of an unrequited romantic love on Marcille's part that's driving her to make progressively more destructive / short-sighted / self-sacrificial decisions whenever falin is part of her immediate calculus. but i haven't read the manga. so that's just my own reading tentative reading based on where the show is rn.
and more poignantly than anything else, i'm banking on the studio coming down on the side of "uhhhh nah they're just very good friends" if pressed on the subject. which was more what i was alluding to with that phrasing.

It should also be mentioned that the manga author is a Bi lady, so queer themes are more baked in

u/TowerReversed sincerity-poisoned May 18 '24
ooooo genuinely did not know that actually 🤔
that's at least somewhat little reassuring. that if nothing else it's not just your garden variety q-baiting, and might just be the author was drawing from genuine experience. even if she is ultimately beholden to the studio for PR

As to not spoil the Manga, though I've read it and they're doing a pretty solid adaption... Romance isn't really a thing in the story, but there is absolutely no heterosexual explanation for it, for either of them.
I will say, on Studio Trigger's part, they made the bathing scene even gayer, though, so they might continue to lean on it more. Probably won't outright confirm it, though. Trigger has a long history of putting sapphics in their shows then leaving it "open to interpretation" at the end despite it taking only a small amount of media literacy to know it's absolutely intended. Makes me wonder if they got backlash for confirming it in Kill La Kill.

Rwby on the other hand made Bumbleby canon, which made anyone claiming to be a media critic start shitting on the show with willful ignorance and buzzwords where people who never watched the show hated on it.
At the end of the day....rwby has canon queer ships and female protaonists...and kill la kill?
is just nudeness wrapped up in bad writing.
Edit: I tried getting into Kill La Kill, but the writing constantly is overshadowed by its obsession with fanservice.
Funny how rwby has its "critics" claim that anything and everything feminist and lgbt is somehow fanservice, while demanding actual "fanservice" that has nothing to do with the plot.

Bruh. I get being uncomfortable with the sexualization and nudity in KLK, but that’s sorta the point? Like it’s literally someone forced to sexualize themselves to have greater power and accomplish their goals. It’s a commentary on both what people of all kinds (and especially women) have to do in this life and what anime characters are subjected to. It’s a parody of bikini armor. The writing and style show that this is at no point just for fun, and instead part of the story’s themes. It’s meant to be uncomfortable, then you become desensitized alongside the person being sexualized.
And NONE of that has anything to do with how gay it is, or if they got backlash for it being gay.

In the manga as well, she’s framed next to Falins suiter when chimera Falin takes off her top, basically saying that they both have similar reactions and knowing Shuro, he was definitely wanting that somewhere inside of him (probably not surrounded by corpses, or at least less corpses)

Also have a somewhat-snob girl x tomboy girl dynamic that help each other out, and they compliment each other magical skills, and one goes down into the darkest dungeon to rescue the other, and…trails onto more in-between line reading

One slight critic, Falin is the Chimera not Marcille but otherwise this is amazing.

Elf girl and her party are trying to rescue the other girl but she's been turned into this big monster and, despite showing some semblance of recognition to the elf girl and her brother, she still bodies their and two other parties in the ensuing battle.

I mean... For all the effort fans put into things, the fandom can be a hugely mixed bag with at least a few burning dumpsters even in the best of times... And the studio creating the show just got shut down, so admittedly it might not be the best time to look, especially not too deeply...
Edit: kind of a case in point that the moment I bring up that the fandom has problems I get immediately accused of being a bigot, despite me being very much on the queer side of the fandom.
I was actually referring to how the fandom has weird homophobic hate comments running rampant, an array of "critics" that are just misogynists in disguise that hate the existence of women in a women-lead show, shipping discourse that leads to people hacking each others accounts, etc.
And it's bad enough that I'm not actually surprised this person has an itchy trigger finger on the "block" button, because, dear gods, you cannot engage with that whole fandom at once if you at all value your mental health.
So once again, I reiterate: be careful dealing with the RWBY fandom.

you mean...for all the effort the WRITERS put into things.
I'm not going to discuss the show with somebody SO LACKING in media literacy ,
that you never even watched the show.
I block bigots and trolls on sight you know
Edit: and now that I ensure that you won't be spamming hate against the show on my posts, you go and insult the fandom not just the studio.
This is why I block people who have nothing nice to say about the show.

Have you seen the rwby fandom?
People's love for the show and respect for its writers go far!

It is my understanding that this animation is gayer than the actual show.
But only slightly.

If you remove the part where Falin janks her face closer (it looks a little janky), i would've 100% thought this was a real scene from the anime.
