Also, humans are absolutely puny compared to the likes of...well, most animals.

Try killing a dog with bare hands and see what happens.

Or a tiger; I hear Barbara would date anyone if they killed several tigers with their bare hands and tore their heads off.

[up][up]Depends on the dog. Caucasian Ovcharka? Yeah, that's not going to end well. My neighbor's fucking chihuahua that won't FUCKING STOP BARKING AT FUCKING MIDNIGHT? Easy.

And what I was referring to specifically: Unless the wound is immediately fatal, humans can very likely survive from it. Traumatic dismemberment isn't even a Career-Ending Injury for some people for crying out loud [lol]

[down]Again, what dog breed? Because there's hundreds of them. [lol]

Heh, I have this wild and crazy theory that wild mass guessthis mysterious Queen that is behind cinder is Summer-or at least, the humanoid grimm inhabiting summer's lifeless body. See I think this grimm isn't humanoid so much as a parasite that kills someone and takes over their shell, and happens to be the driving force behind the grimm. (IIRC, Summer's grave is implied to be empty as they Never Found the Body on the mission she never came back from)wild mass guess

Summer is one of two my guesses for Cinder's boss.

[up] reason: Notice me Ironwood-senpai.

I imagine Roman surviving only to be pistol whiped by Ironwood, or Roman showing up later at a bar and orders a Strawberry Sunrise. Then Ruby and Yang show up.

I'm fully certain that Adam has a HF blade.

Nah, not enough shit-eating grins.

Besides, given the monumental bullshit Revengeance characters get up to, Adam wouldn't stand a chance against Sam. Motherfucker can make robots butthurt.

He has Sam's sword and skill, but he's more of a Solidus.

[up][up][up]I think we established that a few pages ago, but due to the nature of Adam's sword bypassing Aura, there either has to be something special about that sword... or Adam's semblance involves aura negation. Or vibrations.

[up]So Adam, with his bullheadedness just brute-forces his way past people's aura?

This entry in YMMV page:

Adam Taurus. The episode Heroes and Monsters has Adam show more outright cruelty than most characters have in the show's entire record. In response to this, the particularly vocal base has been split into three parts: those that defend and rationalize his actions, those that decry them as out of character and complain that Rooster Teeth has been inconsistent, and those that seem to be unsurprised with the way Adam is acting, but are now condemning anyone who doesn't hate his very existence. There's almost no safe place from these arguments.

Seriously?

I mean, I absolutely love Adam and everything he did in this episode, but how the hell are you supposed to justify them?

[up][up][up]Given what we've seen, Adam seems to have some form of energy absorption. So it's possible that he had to enough stored to break Yang's aura in one slash.

[up]I have yet to see anyone try to justify Adam's actions.

Actually... Now that I think about it, the Spider Droid and Yang were both charging at Adam, upon which Adam promptly ruins their day. Is Adam a matador?

[up][up]Blake did shoot his sword...

In my case I kind surprise, since beside of his revolution, very little is know about him(and Cinder flashback episode make somewhat more noble) so it came a little out of the blue.

I'm just pissed Adam isn't a Well-Intentioned Extremist. The (severely) misguided White Fang led by a genocidal yandere... who would've guessed.
