Well, I can see the horns in that shot...but had I not known that he had horns, seriously would've not noticed it.

Why is that usually the case? Racism is suppose to come from the self-superior race, but somehow the actually better race gets the worst of it.

Considering Blake's feline attributes thus far have been ears, a fear of dogs and a inclination towards fish, the physiological superiority of any individual faunus can be called into question. Likewise, our other faunus characters in the tournament like Sun and Neon Katt fared no better or worse when up against evenly matched human opponents.

In greater numbers certain characteristics, like night vision, can be massed to tilt the balance in favor of faunus. And certain individuals really are physically superior - Sun basically has an extra limb. Case by case, however I think most faunus couldn't display any inherent superiority over their human counterparts.

Heck, the normal humans of the world could make the case that they are the superior half of the species. They don't succumb to randomly hardwired instinct, there is less baser animal in them than those half-evolved faunus.

I'm pretty sure "Blake's" fear of doggy is just for humor, cats aren't "just" afraid of doggy...that instinct would hamper majorly.

"For all of the borderline misogynistic Blakehate, and all the tasteful jokes about amputation and ginger robots lacking souls"

why blakehate? is not hate if is truetongue

and ginger robot lacking soul is redundant.

"There's Adam, a bull. Bulls react to the movement of capes, though the myth is that the color red drives them into action. Guess what color Cinder's wearing? Not only that, but he's all about "charging." His body language, the way he moves, he's always moving forward (even if not in the best direction). His special move also needs to be "charged." "

funny thing is, his style of fight resemble more a matador than anything else: he stay calm, waiting for the Bull to charg against him and them have a big princing atack.

And yes in this case Yang IS the bull, charing him angrly with Red eyes....not surprising there is some similarity about him and yang, maybe Blake have a type...

also I stand with faso here, his edgy force field make imposible to see the hornsevil grin

Those things on Adam's head do not look like horns to me. Though, I would pay to see him gore someone with 'em. Or at least draw blood when giving someone a headbutt.

Adam should just go full wrestler. He already Big Booted Blake earlier, so headbutting someone would be right up the alley.

To be fair, Adam's horns barely look like horns. They're protuding at a weird angle for what they're supposed to be and look very thin, so they could easily be mistaken for brown hair streaks.

It's still a mar on her and will forever remind her she she was too weak to make a difference in the Battle of Beacon as well as be an imperfection which considering how confident she was in her beauty could be a big deal.

The actual physical disability isn't the issue here. Just because she can punch people with both hands again doesn't mean she's all better.

It will also probably contrast her with Mercury who likely doesn't care about his appearance and views it as a boon to help him fight and kill better. When they encounter each other again (and they probably will) he'll probably not understand why she isn't thrilled to get a robo arm.

Yang's friends with Weiss, but Daddy took Weiss away from her friends because.... I dunno.

To be frank: Yes, Artificial Limbs may not be very rare, but they're likely very expensive. And honestly: Yang would probably be too thick-headed to accept one if Weiss attempted to get her help.

[up][up][up]That's 2 characters and a Robot. Robots don't know how hard it is to get replaceable limbs.

Soon we'll see people with iron lungs, metal hearts, and a robotic eye-patch.

But it appears to be more of a character thing from what is being described.

Does that mean she's going to lose her leg and rip out Ruby's soul from her body too?

Does that mean Ruby will have to be put in a new Penny body!?

Yes

Then she's going to go to a land of tall people, and this will make her feel insecure about her height

From last page:

The new Ghostbusters sucks because it's relying on "remake a classic: but with the main cast be women instead of men" to draw people in, and most reviewers and critics say it's not anywhere near as good as the original.

Also, the film reeks with misandry, jokes are stale and unfunny, lacks chemistry between the main characters, CGI is awful, pacing is uneven, and the ending is awful. But no, according to the creators, including the director and half the main actresses, the only reason why anyone would like it is because they hate women. Give me a goddamn break.

Aye, ye might have some subconscious biases swimmin' round in your noodle, lad.

First of all, that's not how biases work. What you are looking for is persecution complex. Second, people who support Ghostbusters, including prominent figures in the industry, actually said things like that. If you are trying to be condescending, try to be more intelligent in your argument.

This is an off-topic, so that's enough of that.

I somehow got roped into early screening, before the wide release. Anyhow, that's off-topic for this thread.
