A CallBack is something that makes an earlier event plot relevant again. If it's just a nod to something that occurred before, like an internal ShoutOut, it's not a CallBack.

** Jaune's fight with an Ursa has him dodging a sweeping attack by jumping, only to get punched out of the air right afterwards. Just like Weiss in the White Trailer. ['''Reason: The animators just seem to like this battle move. It appears all over the place.''']

** Penny has some similarities to Ruby when it comes to making friends. She even mentions \"going shopping, and painting our nails, and talking about cute boys\" like Weiss did sarcastically in Episode 3, and Ruby took at face value. [[LampshadeHanging Ruby herself lampshades this.]][\'\'\'Reason: This may be a ContinuityNod instead.\'\'\']
** Volume 2 starts with the man whose Dust shop was robbed in Volume 1 re-opening for business. [[ButtMonkey And then he gets robbed]] \'\'[[ButtMonkey again]]\'\'. [\'\'\'Reason: This is an internal shout-out at best, which isn\'t what CallBack is.\'\'\']
** While Mercury and Emerald are walking toward Tukson\'s, one of the establishments they pass has the dance club music from the Yellow Trailer playing. [\'\'\'Reason: This is an internal shout-out at best, which isn\'t what CallBack is.\'\'\']
** In Vol. 2 Episode 1, Nora sings \"I\'m queen of the castle\" again during the FoodFight. [\'\'\'Reason: This is an internal shout-out at best, which isn\'t what CallBack is.\'\'\']
** Just before the food fight kicks off in earnest, Ruby is holding a carton of milk. She still hasn\'t grown up much. [\'\'\'Reason: Shoehorning.\'\'\']
** \"Welcome to Beacon\" has [[CasanovaWannabe Neptune]] introducing himself to Weiss by calling her \"Snow Angel\". He\'s \'\'much\'\' more successful than [[ButtMonkey Jaune]] was. The episode also has Weiss making a comment about Yang busting up a club (referencing the Yellow Trailer). [\'\'\'Reason: This may be a ContinuityNod instead.\'\'\']
** Interactions between Sun and Blake outside of Beacon: [\'\'\'Reason: This is more like IronicEcho or some other trope. It\'s not CallBack, however.\'\'\']
--->\'\'\'Sun:\'\'\' I knew you looked better without the bow. [=(S1E15)=]
--->\'\'\'Blake:\'\'\' I knew you would look better in a tie. [=(S2E6)=]
** Nora wears a t-short with Boop on it. [\'\'\'Reason: This is an in-joke, not CallBack\'\'\']
** In \"No Brakes\", Weiss faces down another tall enemy with an accordingly gigantic bladed weapon, like in the White trailer. Blake also attempts to decouple a pair of train cars with her blade, as she did in the Black trailer, but this time, the cars separate on their own before she brings her sword down. [\'\'\'Reason: shoehorning. ContinuityNod at best.\'\'\']
** Nora using her hammer to propel herself across long distances (first shown in Volume 1 Episode 8 to launch across a broken bridge) returns in the Volume 2 finale for the final fight. [\'\'\'Reason: Shoehorn. It\'s just a battle technique she can do whenever she needs to.\'\'\']
** The Volume 3 intro sequence begins with a rose petal against the moon, similar to the way the Red trailer began. [\'\'\'Reason: possible ContinuityNod.\'\'\']
** In \"Round One,\" Nora belches loudly like she did at the end of the food fight in Volume 2. After Nora belches, Jaune makes a reference to the very first thing he did back in Volume 1: [\'\'\'Reason: ContinuityNod at best\'\'\']
** \"New Challengers\" has Sun try to brush off Neptune\'s embarrassing attempts to hit on Team NDGO with a take on Neptune\'s \"Ignore him, for he knows not what he says\" to make up for Sun saying he was going to the dance dressed like normal in \"Burning the Candle\". [\'\'\'Reason: IronicEcho, or some other relevant trope. It\'s not CallBack, however.\'\'\']
--->Ignore him, for he...yeah, he\'s dumb.
--->\'\'\'Jaune:\'\'\' If I barf, I\'m blaming you.
** Episode three has Qrow and Winter make several references to things we\'ve attributed to Ruby, Yang, and Weiss. Qrow showcases RedEyesTakeWarning like Yang, while Winter performs a BladeRun on Qrow like Weiss did in to the Knight in her trailer. Their fight ends up destroying the courtyard, which was supposed to happen during Ruby and Weiss\'s first meeting if it wasn\'t for an animation error (and the dialogue claims did occur). In fact, Qrow\'s overly casual attitude throughout the scene and Winter\'s frustrated response is very similar to Volume 1\'s Ruby/Weiss relationship. [[GenerationXerox Some things apparently run in the blood.]] [\'\'\'Reason: As this example indicates, GenerationXerox is probably more likely to be the relevant trope.\'\'\']
** In Volume 1 Episode 8, Nora and Ren ride on an Ursa. In Volume 3 Episode 10, Scarlet and Sage are seen riding on an Ursa. What makes it funnier is that Nora and Scarlet are both redheads and that Ren and Sage both have green as part of their color scheme. [\'\'\'Reason: In joke, not CallBack.\'\'\']
** In the Black trailer, when Adam cuts through a Spider Droid, the scenery around him turns red and black, with Adam hunched over and his sword held straight out behind him. The shot of him [[spoiler:slicing Yang\'s arm off]] in \"Heroes and Monsters\", features the same colouring and pose, with the only difference being [[spoiler:Yang\'s hair and gauntlets being left yellow in the shot]]. [\'\'\'Reason: Shoehorn. This is just part of the animation and nature of his attack moves.\'\'\']
** Volume 3 has several of these:
*** Volume 1 has Cardin shoving Jaune in a rocket-locker then sending it flying with him in it. [[spoiler:Pyrrha does the exact same thing in the Volume 3 finale, to keep him from getting killed at Cinder\'s hands.]] [\'\'\'Reason: This is a foreshadowing set-up and is under that trope.\'\'\']
*** In Volume 1 Episode 8, Ruby uses Weiss\' glyphs to run up the side of a cliff after having hooked a Nevermore by the neck with Crescent Rose. In the Volume 3 finale, [[spoiler:Weiss uses her glyphs to allow Ruby to run up the side of the CCT to get to the top where Cinder and Pyrrha are fighting. She even lampshades it by saying, \"You can do this.\"]] [\'\'\'Reason: This is ContinuityNod because the real link is Ruby saying \'I have a plan\' and Weiss responding \'You always do\'. The wall run itself is clearly just a tactic strategy Weiss can use whenever she needs to, which would be a shoehorn, it\'s the dialogue that\'s important, and that\'s ContinuityNod instead of CallBack.\'\'\']
*** In the Volume 3 finale, [[spoiler:Cinder kills Pyrrha with an arrow to the heart just like she had killed Amber an episode prior]]. [\'\'\'Reason: Shoehorn. Cinder is an archer. There\'s only so many ways to shoot a person before it gets repetitive. Importantly, the way the arrow kills Pyrrha is completely different to the way the arrow kills Amber.\'\'\']
