The animated show RWBY has proven a hugely successful addition to the programming of Austin-based production company Rooster Teeth since it premiered in 2013. So, what can fans expect from volume 5 of the series about “Huntresses,” who have been trained battle monsters on the future-fantasy world of Remnant?

“These girls started off going to their academy to learn to be monster-hunters,” says Rooster Teeth chief creative officer Burnie Burns. “It’s been really fun to make a series where the characters are aging up, [not] just in years, but in experience as well. The series has been through some ups and downs narratively and this season is very pivotal, where there’s a chance that they could get all back together, see where everybody is, see the journey that people have taken.”
