I believe Weiss gets it in her trailer against the giant Knight

Penny should come back in some form or another. Pinocchio died in the original novels, too. Then he came back.

To be honest, I'm not expecting Ozpin to die either. Ozpin did once tell Blake that she should come to him when she feels ready. That moment hasn't even happened yet - although what Adam has done to both the school and Yang may finally trigger it, especially if Ozpin loses his job.

I'm expecting Ozpin to be ousted from his job by the council, but for him to (appear to) be less bothered by this outcome than others are. I'm also expecting the moment Threat Level 10 happens for everyone to realise they need him back, which is when we'll properly see something awesome from him and that'll be his swan song.

Remember: the current chaos is 'only' Threat Level 9. That means there's worse to come.

If my post doesn't mention a giant flying sperm whale with oversized teeth and lionfish fins for flippers, it just isn't worth reading.

[up][up] Alternatively, the council tries to fire him, Ironwood and his remaining soldiers disagree. At gunpoint, and, with or without Ozpin's consent, stage a coup, installing Ozpin as an effective dictator. The music foreshadows the Brotherhood having to stain its hands with Necessary Evil, and that would be a great way to start.

[up]I believe the term is "Blake'd"

Also, eyes aren't heel-able in fiction (EG: Deathstroke, Zuko)

The manga's last chapter led up to the White trailer fight, next chapter may bring it up. If it doesn't, we can probably assume there's simply limits to Aura.

[up][up]Guy01 was talking about the scar, not the eye.

Weiss' eye is also perfectly fine, it's apparently not a deep scar, especially since none of the official artwork, nor her character model, shows it going over her eyelids.

Also: Deathstroke's eye is gouged out, not just scarred. Zuko's in the same boat as Weiss (though honestly he shouldn't have functionality of that eye at all with how bad that scar is)

I think the threat level would have gotten upgraded to 10 after the Grimm Dragon showed up. And the Atlas Mechanical division got highjacked.

[up][up][up][up][up]Normally I'd go with Blake'd, but Ren was called a ninja this season, and Blake isn't in any condition to do any ninja-ing right now.

So yeah, anyone really surprised that Pyrrha made it out unscathed?

Nope. I never expecting anything truly bad to happen to her and thought it was silly how so many people acted like it was inevitable she'd be killed.

As far as I am concerned, Arkos is too typical to be anything but sincere. Unless she gets fridged for Jaune I don't see her dying, and even then, I think she's too major a character to be killed this early.

BlackSunNocturne Since: Aug, 2013
#25737: Feb 9th 2016 at 6:16:03 PM

[up]Agreed. RWBY and JNPR are too major to be killed in all honesty.

Everyone else on the other hand.... yeah

Everyone went crazy thinking Pyrrha would betray them after she made a weird face in that one episode (either that or Neo was shapeshifted into her).

I think it's ridiculous that we're jumping to conclusions of "Pyrrha and Jaune/Blake and Yang will die" this early.

The latter is particularly ridiculous since Bumblebee is part of the main team. Same with Arkos, but replace "main" with secondary.

She made a face that she has made several times in this show. FNDM is simply a crazy, godless, soul-devouring abomination that defies reason. And thats why I love it.

@Saiga: People on team RWBY dying is exceedingly unlikely until the final volume; and Ruby herself can be presumed safe until the series finale, which is traditionally when The Hero Dies happens.

JNPR on the other hand, doesn't have the plot armor that comes from being billed in the title; so they're fair game at any time; Pyrrha in particular has a huge number of death flags...

Let's take a look at the Sorting Algorithm of Mortality; since this isn't a Hollywood production, I'm going to assume we're a bit past the race and gender categories applying to a character's prospects of dying/not dying.

Age: Protagonist Teen (2)

Love Interests by Genre: Action series (1)

Role: Mentor to Jaune (5)

Aesthetics: Average (3)

Personality: None of the above (N/A)

Species: Human (3)

Occupation: Lancer to Jaune (5)

Health: Made of Iron thanks to aura (2)

That makes her average an even 3; putting her in Sacrificial Lion territory.

[up]And it would most likely be a Heroic Sacrifice on her part.

My friend and I made another Spongebob joke regarding Yang:

"Firmly grasp it in your hand!" -drops net- "Firmly grasp it." -drops net- "FIRMLY GRASP IT!!!"

[up][up]Seeing as how Pyyrha is INCREDIBLY nice and sweet, I'd put the "Personality" in the 1. Also, really? The character with Attractiveness Isolation is "average"? [lol] That'd be a 1.

Ergo, she's actually 2.5.... Which isn't that what Roman got as well?

Goddamn, lot of 2.5's for this series regarding life or death [lol]

[down]But she's also a Broken Ace
