I see Papa Schnee as a Knight Templar. Maybe the shady operations of SDC are run by another party?

Well, Volume 3's soundtrack is a vast improvement on Volume 2's. I think the music that played during Qrow and Winter's fight and Cinder and Ozpin's fight are my favourite pieces.

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.

In case anyone need to convert thing from Youtube to MP 3

Anyway, I really like "when it fall" is with Divide my favorite of this volume, now let give a look to the lyrics

" mirrors will shatter crushed by the weight of the world the pillars collapse in shame"

Maybe is me reading to much but give a double meaning, the first is mirror as lie consider how is use in "Mirror,Mirror" the second is about Atlas who have the weight of the Skies and now is crushing down

"the blinding eyes that burn a yellow flame the embers that remain will light the fuse of condemnation "

This is of course, Cinder with her flame power revealing the lie to the world

"kingdoms in tatters hung on the brink of a war the peace will succumb to flames "

Aside for the obvious is yet another referecing to brung or flame, is clear Cinder is playing the game of being "destructor of civilization" the one who burn away all the liars, she is pretty much a Nolan villian a this point.

"their iron gloves point fingers they'll wage a war of blame and mankind will wilt in pain"

So yep, the idiot ball is going to fall HARD on leader in the city, I kept saying Atlas is going to be first to be hit.

I can't expect the main characters to actually fight in the war (especially one they knew is a false one. Who would they side with?) so I don't think it will anything more than a backdrop on the setting, making it hard for them to do stuff, keeping the older characters occupied, and putting a clock to them having to defeat the real villains before everyone else wars themselves to death.

I would post this like it was a brand new thing, but I am pretty sure it was posted seven times behind my back.

I'm pretty sure someone's suggested part of this already: wild mass guessWeiss teams up with Team FNKI. But, instead of running away from Atlas, they investigate strange occurrences there.wild mass guess

Because we shouldn't put awesomeness on a bus(but, they probably will until they're plot relevant).

Hmm.

Think I might actually buy the soundtrack this time rather than listen to the whole thing on Youtube.

The opening song for this volume, and Neon, and the jazzy remix of I Burn were fantastic.

EDIT: So.. .the soundtrack just dropped... but it's not immediately available from the Rooster Teeth store? Zah?

Still not seeing it in their merchandise section.

Never noticed how much Velvet's initial Semblance-copies matched up with the originals.

Adam won't be redeemed. They've made him the kind of creepy, personal evil that doesn't leave wiggle room for heel-face turns. Best he can get is a reveal of some outside influence pushing him off the slippery slope, and that's already a stretch.

Adam won't be redeemed. They've made him the kind of creepy, personal evil that doesn't leave wiggle room for heel-face turns.

I think that's pushing the 'Adam is rapey' implication a little far.

Blake's ties with him were close enough that she opted not to try and kill him in the Black Trailer.

Just because he's cut off Yang's hand doesn't make him an irredeemable monster. If Adam was a two-dimensional Hate Sink, we wouldn't see him refusing Cinder earlier on. There wouldn't be any reason to sympathize with him at all, he could've just agreed to join with Cinder.

Characters need to be deeper than "he gives off a rapist vibe so clearly he's irredeemable" or "character kills innocent people, there is absolutely no way he can be redeemed", we need to look for other sides to their personalities other than the obvious "well he did a bad thing, so that makes him a bad person."

Moral complexity, ho.

Redemption doesn't always have to mean that they will be forgiven all of their sins, while simultaneously joining the main cast as an ally and father figure.

I don't think he'll be "redeemed", nor do I think it's that black and white. I think we'll see some exchange between him and Blake that makes us feel genuinely sorry for him on some level.

Hopefully RWBY chooses to be more complex with his characterization, like how Weiss, Velvet, Jaune, and Ruby are more complex than they first appeared. And not just write him off as "the creepy rapist that you should hate because that's all he ever was."

I'm hoping it's the same with Torchwick and he wasn't just "the evil dick who got eaten by a Nevermore because that's what he deserved."
