Considering he said there was nothing but Ruby and a frozen dragon, probably not.

...and because that would a most anti-climatic end for the main villain for three seasons.

That'd be like Darth Vader suddenly dying after he had Luke's home burned down.

Besides, the silver-eye power, according to the legend, works on Grimm. We cannot automatically say it would impact Cinder because she's human and shouldn't be affected.

Of course, she may have that little Grimm creature fused with her in some fashion, which is why we can't say for certain that she wouldn't be affected.

Is that why she can commune with the dragon, I've been wondering - the glove was almost certainly given to her by Salem, given the similarity of symbols on the glove and Salem's robes. I'm also wondering if that parasite is going to gradually consume Cinder (perhaps it'll consume her faster with increasing power) and turn her into something resembling Salem - and Cinder doesn't yet fully comprehend her future.

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.

Yes, I suppose Cinder just being killed like that by Ruby would be rather anticlimactic and unsatisfying.

Isn't it always the time with some self-control?

Honestly, I find the fact that the conflict was resolved like that at all unsatisfying and anti-climatic. But I feel RWBY as a whole has issues with being anti-climatic so far.

Technicely it wasn't really solved. Vale still fell, the dragon's still there, and Grimm are being attracted to it.

It would be better to say the immediate crisis was forestalled.

Ruby plugged the hole in the dam, but the cracks are still leaking.

That's more fitting, don't those creatures Grimm...feed off of those negative feels?

True enough, but it's a solution nonetheless that ended the season with a Deus ex Machina as opposed to the heroes actually doing anything triumphant.

I'm admittedly jaded though with RWBY when it comes to them not actually ending the problem. They're upstaged twice in situations I feel they could have been handled better in S1 and S2 then S3 has this huge build up which concluded the season with a Deus ex Machina. Oh and Roman's death, which I still feel was weak. I'd just like an ending where someone in RWBY ends the season with them making the decisive action and it not being something that comes out of nowhere yet again.

The wait certainly isn't helping, but I wonder how it will feel for someone in the future who watches the whole thing(-that-will-be) in a sitting or three feels about it.

Yes, more despair. That way, when the events get described on its Tv Tropes page...Randomness will get sad, no matter how good or bad the events were actually written.

That's always a fun time.

Too much despair will make it cheap though. It will cost only a Penny.

And a Penny's limbs. And torso.

Random Adam & Blake "facts."

Adam can cut through hot sword with butter.

Blake once had a fight with a pie. Predictably, in less than a minute Blake lost.

Adam does not cut down his enemies. He simply carves a hole in the space-time fabric that they occupy.

How many chunks of dead fish can Blake kill in ten seconds? One, but only if someone distracts the fish for her.
