Maybe I just didn't watch the fight as carefully as I should have, but something I'm not getting here is how people are saying Roman beat Ruby. From what I remember it was more of a Roman/Neo teamup wrecking her.

Also, is it just me or do Roman and Neo have probably the best team coordination we've seen so far? Gotta say I really dig that partnership.

Ozpin, the Headmaster of Beacon, is named after "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz". In the books, Oz's full name is Oscar Zoroaster Phadrig Isaac Norman Henkel Emmannuel Ambroise Diggs, and those initials spell out O.Z.P.I.N.H.E.A.D.

i don't have an answer for you, but that fact is fkn hilarious

[up]roman was definitely still beating Ruby even after Neo got Poppinsed away

Question regarding the trope pages: I know that Ozpin was stated by Monty to not follow the color-naming rule, but he still does, just in a very roundabout way.

  • Meaningful Name: Ozpin, the Headmaster of Beacon, is named after "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz". In the books, Oz's full name is Oscar Zoroaster Phadrig Isaac Norman Henkel Emmannuel Ambroise Diggs, and those initials spell out O.Z.P.I.N.H.E.A.D.
  • Odd Name Out: Word of God has stated that Ozpin's name deliberately does not follow the color rules for the naming of all other characters.

Now, the Wizard of Oz is associated with Emeralds (hell, it's what his city is named and colored) and Ozpin wears a lot of that particular shade of green.

Should Odd Name Out mention it's actually being a Zig-zagged example due to the aforementioned emerald color motif?

[up]What is, the fact that Ozpin is named after the Wizard of Oz, or the fact that the Wizard has an Overly Long Name with a very hilarious string of initials? [lol]

[up][up][up]Aura?

[up][up][up] I actually have a feeling that Blake might use her bow to help cover up Yang's wound, if it turns out that she's still bleeding, and thus finally out herself as a Faunus to the general public/outer side-cast.

I won't exactly cross my fingers, but it might be a possibility.

Aura could have a greater Healing Factor if there's a lot of it. It might be able to regenerate limbs provided you have enough Aura in those moments afterward. Which you normally won't if you have a limb chopped off.

[up][up] Yeah, I'm honestly not sure. It depends on whether or not Yang's wound was cauterized by the Aura or not. In either case, I definitely don't see the Aura rebuilding Yang's limb. That would be a big cop-out for the show to do. But cauterizing the wound is definitely a possibility.

If not and if Yang is bleeding still in the next episode, I could a possible scenario where Blake opts to use her bow to cover up the wound.

[up][up] lol Nice pun. But in all seriousness, if Yang has indeed lost her arm for good, she's gonna replace it with a prosthetic next volume. Mercury and Ironwood are both prime examples of that sort of thing being doable in the world of Remnant.

Do you think this will inspire Yang to create a pair of shotgun greaves and learn more about using her feet as well as her arm/s?

Except he doesn't. He's certainly associated with the color emerald/green, but his name is based off of oz, not a color.

I already knew he was named after the Wizard of Oz, with the connotation of that being related to emerald...

Wait, is Ozpin somehow related to Emerald?

[up][up][up]From Monty himself

"1. Characters in RWBY must be:

  • A color
  • Something that sounds like a color
  • Something that means a color
  • Something that makes you think of a color"

Ozpin, being named after the Wizard of Oz, follows 1D, as the Wizard of Oz makes people think of the color Green.

[up][up]wild mass guessShe's the daughter of one of his mistresses!

[down].... Emerald has seafoam green hair though [lol]

[up][up][up]that would be amazing and now i'm hoping for it

they've both got gray hair

ozpin's namesake is very much associated with emerald

emerald has a really powerful semblance

it's all coming together now

[up]Except "Oz" doesn't make you think of "emerald". Yes, Oz has association with emeralds and emerald color, and yes, Ozpin is also associated with those colors. But Oz does not make you think of the color emerald. It makes you think of a wise and old guy.

also she dyed it duh

I wonder if we'll get to see whoever is based on the Cowardly Lion, and Dorothy plus Toto.
