A tennis racket designed like one of Snowflake's glyph...would be pretty neat.

As well as a Bat designed like a chainsaw.

For any fans of Roman and Neo, I give you this amv. And this one. Seems a popular song to use with the two of them.

Was it confirmed what Neo is based off of? My first guess was the Chesire Cat.

[up][up]A genderbent Roman Torchwick cosplay

Yeah didn't get alot of development time. They invented her in like a day after looking at a female Torchwick cosplay because they couldn't come up another way for Roman to get away after the robot fight.

[up]I'm glad they did, because her design is great, and her Silent Snarker schtick hilarious. Though, assuming she survived the events of the finale, I'll be sorry she and Roman aren't operating together anymore. Will be curious to see what her reaction to his death is, if any. He obviously cared about her, at least a little. Don't know if she reciprocated—between her muteness and her odd body language she's a lot harder to read than he is.

Of course there's a lot of unanswered questions about Neo in general. Do we even know how old she is? She could pass for a high school student, but given that she's what, four foot six, and very fine boned that doesn't really mean much. I always got the impression she and Roman were around the same age, but I admit I'm not really basing that on anything concrete beyond how well they seem to work together.

Also, it's why you never see tennis or badminton players with the bodies of bodybuilders; too much muscle can and will slow you down.

Okay, so I just woke up and I'm wondering, is this an alternate universe where tennis/badminton players are also fighters?

Leaving aside my desire for Weiss to get a personal adversary and redeem her defeat at his hands, there's one more reason why I think the LT needs to come back—with Roman almost certainly dead, and Neo potentially dead, they're going to need some more villains. And while they can certainly invent new ones, with Adam and his White Fang goons set up to play a major role in future storylines, failing to bring back his apparent right-hand man who literally manhandled one of the protagonist quartet would just be, at least in my opinion, bad writing.

Also he looks like a refugee from a slasher film, and in a series run on Rule of Cool we can always use more of that.

I think the White Fang would be in serious trouble there. Unless they've got more fighters of Adam or Lieutenant Leatherface's calibre who we just haven't met yet, I suppose.

We don't have to assume that Ice Cream hair died from being blown off the ship.

That's too comical a defeat. Like, no writer would kill off a competent villain like that for serious.

I think the most common theories on Neo and Roman's relationship is that they're either lovers, or Father/daughter.... sometimes both.

Also, yes: Banesaw needs to return.

...Ignoring the fucked up interpretation, I've gone with either lovers or Siblings in Crime myself. Roman never struck me as old enough to be her father.

Also, I don't think Neo is dead. If she was, I feel she would have fallen without her parachute umbrella.

On the question of if she cares for Roman, I've assumed as much since she took the effort to help him out of rough spots twice and how strong they are as a fighting duo. Plus, Roman doesn't strike me as the type to genuinely care about somebody if they don't have a reason to reciprocate.

It'd certainly be a sight worth visually seeing.

But I won't push the rock further, that idea is weird enough.

Given the degree to which she and Mercury are being set up as counterparts she almost has to get a mechanical arm, to counter his mechanical feet.

Sorry for the late response, but how are Yang and Mercury being set up as counterparts?

Plus, the opening portrayed them as fighting one another, and they have had an explicit match in the show proper, where Mercury lost but was able to screw her over, which is a pretty decent setup for making them into a sort of good and evil rival sort of situation.

"Also he looks like a refugee from a slasher film"

That is what I call him, not-leatherface, for obious reason

"Dude. That's messed up. "

Yeah, if there is a incest case here is Winter X Weissevil grin (god I love messing up this fandom)

" I've gone with either lovers or Siblings in Crime myself. Roman never struck me as old enough to be her father."

I think Neo was adopted by Roman, kind like C Inder "Adopted" Emerald(which if you think about it, make her fit the evil stepmother part of C Inderella)

"Sorry for the late response, but how are Yang and Mercury being set up as counterparts? "

Let see:

First there is the obvious counter: girl vs boy, blue vs yellow, kick vs punch, he atack a lot where she deliver heavy blow,etc

Also they are somewhat thrill seekers, but Yang is pleasen and party girl when not in combat while Mercury tend to annoy people for the hell of it, Yang like a good fight, Mercury like to win and to crush is oponent(as is song theme show) both learn from their parent both while Yang father is caring, Marcus...isnt
