{{Foreshadowing}}.

{{Foreshadowing}}. \"A clue or allusion embedded in the narrative that predicts some later event or revelation.\" It\'s literally right there in the first sentence of the trope description.

{{Asspull}}: \"An Asspull is a moment when the writers pull something out of thin air in a less-than-graceful narrative development, violating the Law of Conservation of Detail by dropping a plot-critical detail in the middle, or near the end of their narrative \'\'\'without Foreshadowing or dropping a Chekhov\'s Gun earlier on\'\'\'.\"

Pay attention to the bolded bit.

You can argue that it\'s not foreshadowing \'\'enough\'\', but in retrospect, it\'s clearly foreshadowing. The first comment Ozpin says to Ruby, with a significant pause after it? Yes, the viewer was supposed to pick up on that as important. You cannot get a bigger \"This will be important\" flag without {{Deadpool}} leaning onto the screen and saying \"This might be important late ron, pay attention.\"

It even says int he second sentence of the Foreshadowing description: \'\'\'\"It could be a wayward comment or action\"\'\'\'.

I.e. \"Ruby Rose. You have... silver eyes.\"

There\'s not a single sentence anywhere in the Foreshadowing \'\'or\'\' Aspull page\'s descriptions that says that there\'s some arbitrary minimum limit to how much foreshadowing is needed.
