Y'all are busy with exams and you're on TV Tropes?

On top of a full-time job. Career development is crazy like that.

The big question there for me is whether Watts is actually going to stick around for the volume, or if his appearance at the end the was just for that reveal.

We'll probably see more of both Watt and Hazel if the focus is going to be on Haven, given that Hazel is supposed to be meeting up with the White Fang. I wonder if his similarity (horns aside) to the village blacksmith is coincidence or deliberate. Then again, he's somewhat similar to Tukson and Ghira, too. It could be a model issue, or he really does have a significant relationship. I was expecting the faunus reveal to be Hazel, not Tyrian. There could still be a faunus reveal.

Sod it, let's just say he's Ghira's brother. We've had enough sister jokes in the fandom, we may as well start on brothers, too.

These don't quite match-up but the intent seemed genuine. And I do so long for a crossover between the two series.

It's unsettling how frustrating this show's narrative is in hindsight.

So was Cinder's "list" actually a list for "Students who Ozpin might choose to be the Fall Maiden" thus being people she needed to tail to find out where the maiden was.

Except the plan to steal the Maiden's power only relied on Cinder finding said Maiden and putting an arrow through her - she seemed to find Ozpin's hideaway independent of Pyrrha going down there. Though she did seem to scoff at Ozpin when their fight began for hiding the Maiden down there, so maybe she didn't know.

But alas.

Given the context of that scene, I'd guess that "the list" is Beacon students that they can exploit to make the Academies look bad during the Vytal Festival. You're right, though, it's very much "generic cryptic villain dialogue" moreso than specific foreshadowing of anything in particular. RWBY definitely indulges in that kind of thing.

Really from Jupiter, but not an alien.

It looked to me like it was the list of people they intended to exploit during the tournament matches.

Except the plan to steal the Maiden's power only relied on Cinder finding said Maiden and putting an arrow through her - she seemed to find Ozpin's hideaway independent of Pyrrha going down there.

She had positioned herself on the rooftop overlooking Ozpin's office and the entrance to the tower. She was watching when Pyrrha and Jaune met with Ozpin at the entrance and went back down below. All she had to do was follow.

Ozpin knew it was a possibility because he told Jaune to stand guard.

Now, will free account holders get to see this a day later or wait a week for the YouTube release?

... Err, no?

"free account holders". As in RoosterTeeth members who aren't paying money. Should get it the next day, unless RT decided to be pricks and say "fuck you fans, give us your money if you want the shows when you used to get them normally".

We went over this when the news was first announced. Free account holders have to wait a week just like everyone else and that's perfectly fine. These things take money to make, RT is a business, and you're still getting the product for free, you can just pay for the privilege to gain access to it a bit sooner. Crunchyroll and I believe Funimation use this exact same business model, along with likely many other places, and it's perfectly fine.

.... Okay that's honestly stupid imo.

That means there's essentially no difference between having a RT account and not.

If they do that for RWBY proper, welp. I guess that screws this forum for discussion, since I don't think most of the forum-members aren't paying members. That's going to be fun waiting a week to watch the thing.

I think they mentioned that this does not affect RWBY proper. It still operates on the old system.

[up][up] Not true. Having a free account lets you post on their fora and likely has other benefits that I'm not aware of. It's the exact same system used by CR and Funi and I haven't heard anyone complain about those.
