The Weiss example could use a rewrite, but I can\'t find the inspiration for that one. The Junior example could probably also use some Word Cruft magic.

** Yang goes to a bar in a sleazy part of town because she's looking for someone and the barman has a reputation for knowing everyone. His club is staffed with armed mobsters and girls with huntress-style training. Yang's approach to questioning is to introduce herself by painfully grabbing him by the balls and mocking him in front of his men to humiliate him. She then offers him a kiss and punches him when he accepts the offer. When his mobsters draw their weapons, she beats everyone up, tearing up the club in the process. As a result, a sleazy man who's willing to kiss underaged girls and who hires out goons to dangerous criminals has also been interpreted as a businessman trying to deal with a super-powered teenage delinquent who showed up fully armed and who seems to love causing violence. In the manga, the sleazier aspects of Junior are dropped entirely in favour of the alternative interpretation; he even excuses the damage she does to the club and becomes more amicable towards her.

** A small cluster of fans think that Weiss is a {{Tsundere}}, and that\'s why she acts so abrasive to Ruby. It\'s a common subject for forum jokes. Either that, or a JerkassWoobie. Her scolding Ruby to \"shut up and don\'t touch me!\" while \'\'[[MasterOfTheMixedMessage holding her closer]]\'\' certainly helps the Tsundere image.
** When Ruby uses Neo\'s parasol to sweep her off the airship they\'re fighting on, Roman calls out Neo\'s name in a distraught way. After that, his fight with Ruby becomes angrier and more intense, culminating in him beating her with his cane while she curls up on the ground. While he\'s viewed as as villain who is prone to negative ranting and has become increasingly frustrated with Ruby constantly showing up to interfere with his plans, another interpretation suggests he loses control of his emotions against Ruby because he\'s so distraught over what\'s happened to Neo.
