** Aigis' RWBY-based color is Penny Polendina, naturally, with her being a RobotGirl and all, but what color does Pallas Athena get? ''Ruby,'' representing Penny and Ruby's strong friendship.
** Who all from UNIB receives Team RWBY's colors? Hyde and his friends. So far we've seen Hyde, Orie, and Linne as Ruby, Weiss, and Blake respectively. A little less heartwarming is Waldstein as Adam Taurus though...

For reference, Hyde is Steven, Linne is Garnet, Waldstein is Amethyst, and Vatista is Pearl.

The Aramasa isn't a soul-stealing weapon, Ragna's arm does that. The Aramasa is just a big slab of metal on a stick with nothing inherently special about it on its own.


** Some Fridge Heartwarming. Ragna tells her to look at his weapon later, and pushes her away. But then you remember that Aramasa is a dangerous [[YourSoulIsMine soul-stealing]] weapon. In other words, Ragna just doesn't want Ruby to get hurt. Still doesn't change the fact that he'd appreciate it more if she shut up.

Storyboards from the digital artbook confirm that Ragna’s sword is in fact officially called Aramasa. This name first appeared when Ragna appeared in Seven Knights and its canonicity was unclear but now we know it is correct. Blood Scythe has never been a canon name, only being used based on a line in CT about “Blood Scythe deployed’ with no context and the special move introduced in CP. When talking about the sword itself and not the special move, please use Aramasa from now on.

* 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!"
** Their finisher counts too. Ragna tells Yu he doesn't care about his PowerOfFriendship but affirms that as long as Yu keeps his eyes forward, he'll watch his back. Yu then tells Ragna that they are already forming bonds. He even refers to him as "Ragna-san", showing how respectful Yu is to him and that he looks up to him.

** Another from the intro. Even though Blake and Yang are both DLC characters, they are still present alongside Ruby and Weiss in the intro. Arc Systems clearly didn't forget about the second half of Team [=RWBY=].

* Nu-13's color palette for RWBY characters is of fellow RobotGirl [[https://i.imgur.com/VgrpMBR.jpg Penny 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.
