** Some Fridge Heartwarming. Ragna tells her to look at his weapon later, and pushes her away. But then you remember that Blood Scythe is a dangerous [[YourSoulIsMine soul-stealing]] weapon. In other words, Ragna just doesn't want Ruby to get hurt.

Yu than tells Ragna their already forming bonds, and he trusts Ragna to have his back. He even refers to him as "Ragna-san", showing how respectful Yu is to him and that he looks up to him.

* Ragna and Narukami's intro is surprisingly heartfelt when you consider Ragna is a [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold bit rough around the edges]]. Narukami is polite to Ragna and encourages him to fight alongside him in battle, earning a rare moment of Ragna responding rather calmly that he'll fight with Narukami, causing them both to shout in unison: "Lets go!"

* Nu-13's color palette for RWBY characters is of fellow RobotGirl [[https://i.imgur.com/VgrpMBR.jpg Pelly Polendina]]. While at first this just seems like an obvious joke about their similarities, once you remember that Monty Oum was a huge [=BlazBlue=] fan and based Penny's fighting style (and possibly her origin as a RobotGirl) on Nu and her Murakumo Unit "sisters," it becomes much more meaningful since it means Monty's creation has come full circle; being represented by the character who inspired her in the first place.

Ragna, Jin, and Noel being family members (with Noel being a clone of their sister) isn't really that much of a spoiler at this point in time.


* In the cinematic intro, Ragna gives Jin a shoulder tap, before the two of them, alongside Noel presumably enter the fray. This is one of the warmest gestures Ragna has ever given Jin, and the fact that all three of them fighting together [[spoiler:[[BadassFamily as a family]]]] is heartwarming as well.

Depending on how one interprets it, this could be seen as Ruby donning the white hood in honor of her late mother.

The fact that ''[[VideoGame/BlazBlueCentralFiction Central Fiction]]'' had palette swaps based off of ''RWBY'' characters both shows that ''and'' it was a nice tribute, but ''Ruby clashing with Ragna the Bloodedge'' is ''beyond'' awesome. [=ArcSys=] really wants to pay their respects.
* The fact that Ragna's official artwork has him ''smiling''. Up until this game, ''none'' of Ragna's official artworks (even in spin-offs and guest appearances) depicted him smiling. If [[PerpetualFrowner Ragna]], who has possibly one of the most traumatic and scarring backstories in fiction, has something to smile about, things must be looking up for him.
