Funny, I thought that scene was the show trying to lampshade their approach to action scenes now that actual stakes have been added to them.

Lol “She has loved ones now, that makes taking the chance she leaves Blake with nothing but a corpse okay”
I guess suicidal attacks are what bees do best 🤡

Suicidal attacks are always what RWBY does. Raw power, brute strength, ram the two trains together and see who walks away from it. That’s how RWBY’s fights and actions go.

Idiot shippers interpret two people whose only interaction is looking at each other once in no particular way as the signs of the greatest love story ever told. It doesn't take a lot for these retards to head canon their way into an OTP with Olympic level mental gymnastic maneuvers.

Fuck right off. The building trauma in Yang in volume 4 was pretty much the only thing I liked about that season and if handled well it could have been a great character arc. So pissed off that they hand waved it away in volumes 5 and 6. Dont fucking defend that shit, it was handled in the worst way humanly possible. RWBY fans deserve their shit show.

I was so disappointed in the entire failure to maintain the tone that darkness is approaching that was signaled with the end of volume 3. But Yang's trauma was just torn away like her arm. The only time she suffered any PTSD was when a fucking glass broke. And if I recall, slight hesitation when fighting those bandits. But yeah RT, way to show overcoming trauma by repeating the same behaviors that led to her losing her arm. There should have been some modification to the way she fights. No longer charging in guns blazing, instead with an air of caution. Recognize possible attacks from her opponents and counteract them.

The other thing that irked me is her willingness to return to fighting. There should have been a training montage in V4, an encounter with a grimm (maybe it looks like Adam) that Yang backs away from and Tai has to save her (giving him some fucking involvement in the plot). She continues to get flashes of her fight with Adam during other battles and is unable to fight to her fullest. Then there is a scene where Raven threatens the rest of Team RWBY and Yang gets that same flashback. But this time she channels that fear of losing her friends into rage and is able to overpower Raven. Because Yang's whole semblance is that she absorbs damage dealt to her and mental trauma can be inferred to be another type of damage. What would be a better way to demonstrate overcoming trauma than to use that trauma as a means of literal empowerment and be resolved to ensure that no one else has to go through that same mental anguish?

How the fuck can I write a more detailed arc for Yang in less than an hour than all that she has been written about for almost a decade?

Fuck, when she had them all in the grasps of her Grimm arms, she only focused on Emerald. Was she just going to leave the others alone then forget about them? I mean it seemed like she was at least going to threaten or maim Yang given how she snapped at the demigod.

If CRWBY actually remembered how powerful and terrifying Salem is supposed to be, she should've taken them all out right then and there lol. I pray they don't give her a redemption arc.

Just like the viewers, Salem knows, but doesn't care.

Lmao! I wonder if she even knows that Neo took the lamp. You would think an ultra OP demigoddess would know the whereabouts of something that is literally being protected in her Grimm "ship". What's the purpose of it being here in this room?

Wait 'till they hear that it doesn't matter what their race is and what they should pay attention to is how the Grimm human had silver eyes...
Salem isn't going after Faunus. She's going after silver-eyed people. Silver-eyed people are her weakness (you can assume this since we've seen time and time again Ruby absolutely destroy Grimm + Salem's buddies with her deus ex machina eyes) so she must enslave any and all that she finds.
She probably missed Maria since Maria is now blind, and she probably missed Ruby because Ruby was very young and had no idea she'd become a Huntress in the future when Summer Rose was taken away.
She's not experimenting on Faunus. Shut the hell up SJW.

You should probably laugh at the wokescolds that wanted "more Faunus rep" to the point they accidentally shoot themselves in their own foot all because they didn't bother to stop and
think about all this.

Salem's entire shtick is to kill everybody, including herself. Summer Fucking Rose, one of the most "privileged" characters in the show proper (by this lolcow's own lack of logic) is slated for a return via the Hound. All are equal in death. She even treats a psychopathic Faunus character as her most trusted lieutenant.

Salem can't form a bond with Humanity 2.0 because they're a different generation, and they all die anyways. Why should she give a shit about whether or not someone is a Faunus and has possible "Faunophobic" undertones? They're all inferior because they can't die or have magic, especially when her plan to spread magically empowered aryans, light and dark-skinned, by having her own daughters breed was the reason why Oz took the kids!

Did you have to sign off twice?

Actually, better question. did you have to sign off once?
 
I don't care about any of these characters and watch this schlock to burn time but even then, watching Salem's ineffectiveness and stupidity is starting to suck. It was really unsatisfying when she didn't tear a new one in any one of the protags and her rainbow beams look weaker than that black guy's tactical trumpet. You're telling me that this super goddess of evil can't fight and keep a few teenagers restrained with her combat tentacles at the same time?

Okay, maybe I'm just stupid...

But does anyone recall any scene before this episode where Oscar and Ozpin used magic? I do not recall a single scene where they use magic (unless the soul swap is the magic in question)
Click to expand...
The only time Oscar's used magic before this episode was making two barriers to crash through Atlas and then to land in the Mantle crater in Volume 7's finale. I don't think even Ozpin used magic through him before this point

So he's technically done it twice.

Still feels like a really dumb thing for Oscar to say - If they've only done it twice, and both were done in pretty much stressful situations, how the hell would Oscar know that they're merging faster together?
