RWBY: Ice Queendom Episode 8 Review

Ice Queendom has definitely been one of the best episodes so far. The show keeps getting better and better, and while I enjoyed Ice Queendom more than the last three years of RWBY, I would have to say this episode is easily in my top ten, perhaps even top five of all RWBY-related episodes. It is clear that the nightmare aspects of the dreamscape have come true. The abandoned mansion with the puppets was eerie. But the Evangelion-Esque congratulations scene deserves special mention.

There was something so weird, so surreal (especially watching the paladins congratulate Ruby), and so creepy about it. I had wondered if we’d get a dream in a dream, and indeed we did. Gen Urobuchi shows his true colors in this. I also laud the visuals and the sound that make the transition to creepiness gradual. Urobuchi hasn’t gone full paprika, but I had not expected this either, so who knows how far he is prepared to go.

Also, I liked that suddenly the scenario had a layer of grayness. Although Team RBY is trying to save Weiss, they are still invading her mind. Some things aren’t for them to explore, and Weiss has every right to protect them. I didn’t expect JJacquess to become Weiss’ knight. It seems that RBY’s actions have distorted the dream to a point where symbolism reaches new levels. Inadvertently, Jacques’ controlling attitude has made Weiss the one to control him because he has inadvertently become Weiss’ subject. Perhaps that’s the faintest hint that Weiss believes Jacques cares for her. It makes me wish I could forget how disappointing the Schnee family plot was. In the second season of Ice Queendom, I hope the writers will explore the Schnees further and take the show into the realm of AU fiction.

There was something phenomenal about this episode. The stakes keep rising. The slow and creepy way in which the Nightmare’s vines slowly wrap around the environment is appropriately sinister. And that ending. In this series, I never thought that Ruby would be infected by the Nightmare. I am ecstatic about what will happen next. Weiss’s own dream has already shed light on Ruby’s character. Ruby, I cannot describe how excited I am about what her dream world will be. It will be amazing to see how her character evolves. And as if that were not enough, we may even get to see Summer Rose. Gosh, the next episode cannot come soon enough.
