* ''[[RWBY]]'' routinely loads the credits of the last episode of a volume with an extensive "Thanks to" list, which appears to include the families of cast and crew members, elite subscribers to [[Rooster Teeth]]'s website, and occasionally firms and organizations which somehow contributed to the production that year.
