Brought the following to the discussion page because there's probably a YMMV item out there that's relevant for this issue, but it's not ShockingSwerve, which is something created just to shock the audience and has no foreshadowing or genuine plot relevance.

This has had foreshadowing (quality very much up for debate, but the trope's point isn't about quality of foreshadowing, it's about no foreshadowing, and plenty of fans were expecting Ruby to reveal special powers she didn't know she had at some point) and it's been planned from the beginning as a major plot point (as is the case with Pyrrha's death - quality of death may be debatable, but the plot relevance is not).

* ShockingSwerve: Ruby's silver-eyed powers. It comes out of nowhere with the only pinch of Foreshadowing being a comment made by Ozpin on ''the very first episode'' and even that never implied anything akin to what was ultimately revealed. To say fans were not pleased is an understatement.
** Fans also questioned the fact that it was the shock of witnessing Pyrrha's death what unleashed Ruby's powers. Particularly because the two barely interacted on-screen to the point of never even holding a conversation whereas Penny, whose death is shown to have affected Ruby much more, it's not what causes the reveal.
