Three words: Jazz is sweet.

Neon Katt tho this name is so stupidly clever

The battle was obviously rigged by Cinder to be in WY's favour; a known taunter vs Yang? But Weiss just performed terribly in this match, and they somehow also did not know their opponents beforehand when they should have been watching the first rounds.

Pyrrha was way OOC, it's probably an illusion/shapeshift. Ozpin might not even have been talking about Pyrrha, it could have been a red herring, maybe

Yang and Weiss got provoked way too easily. I even started rooting for team FNKY half way through that fight

Finally got around to watching the recent epi... GIMME THOSE TWO SONGS DURING THE FIGHT, AL;SDFKJAS;LDKFJ;LASDJF;LASDJF;LSADKJF;LASKDFJ;L

Also, can't wait for Yang to say "URUSAI, URUSAI, URUSAI!!!" in the Japanese dub XD

That made me feel uncomfortable
Jinxy
Oh wow. Holy crap. Damn, this episode was one hell of a wham.

SPOILER
So "Autumn" they talked about 2 episodes before was Amber Autumn (or vice versa), the Maiden of Fall, and Cinder Fall almost guaranteed to be the assailant

Yo this some Last Airbender shit but darker

That fight was smooooooth. Amazing animation imo.

And Cinder's plan for the tournament is partially revealed. Get the angriest competitor to make a terrible foul, and stir up so much negative emotion in one place that Grimm all over the region notice.

And the crunch, the sad music, and the reveal on the screens. "That made me feel uncomfortable" is the perfect description of my feelings, and it is an amazing thing the animators have successfully made many of us feel.

This is easily one of the top 5 episodes so far.

guessing Summer Rose was another of those maidens before she died. Maybe Ruby is one now?

Basically, Neo is creating that illusions to "boycott" people in the tournament. I'm gonna leave these here

Neo appears to be able to create very convincing illusions which can be used to fool enemies. These illusions do not appear to be very solid, as they shatter on impact. This illusion ability was only seen once, in "Painting the Town...", where she creates an illusion of her and Roman Torchwick as a distraction for Team RWBY as she and Roman escape on a nearby Bullhead.

Neo's apparent ability to teleport (as seen in "No Brakes", after Raven Branwen appears) may also be linked to her Semblance. Her disguise and radical change in appearance seen in "Round One" may also be due to her Semblance, or it could be achieved through more mundane means.

Obviously what you saw in the video is just a theory, but I think it makes sense.

Actually there is an alternate theory which I agree with that the two events on Coco and Yang were by Emerald and not Neo.

SPOILER
There was a reddit post about it which I cbf to dig up, but semblances have VERY specific and distinct sound effects, and Monty did pay extra attention to them (along with weapon sounds)

During the train scene where Yang tries to punch Neo for the first time and reels back, and when Neo runs from Raven, there is a high-pitched whirring sound then a breathy sound.

However, the Yang vs Merc once, it is a sharper and shorter wind-like sound. It is very similar to Coco's imo but only louder. (<- Some people have contention with this point and think it doesn't sound that similar tho)

These two sounds are distinctly different and hint at two different semblances. The theory is Neo's is illusions that affect the surrounding area, while Emerald's is hallucinations which affect a specific person. In this case, Coco and Yang. And yes, this means Yang was not provoked to attacking Merc in reality.

However, there is one caveat that I couldn't really tell what the sound effect was during the third scene in the video was though, all I hear is generic glass shards which don't match the above.

Bonus point to note: Emerald was explicitly shown being missing from her seat during Yang vs Merc. By the Law of Conservation of Detail, it is highly likely that she was doing something important during that time. Like messing with Yang's mind.

I believe I watched RWBY on Netflix about a year ago, I was disappointed to see it had ended. I assume there's more now, huh.

penny got cut in half what the fuck etc etc etc you've probably heard this reaction hundreds of times
but we can rebuild her, we have the technology, maybe
inb4 she loses her aura and thus "soul", yeah i can totally see that coming, being a reverse Pinocchio and all

Em's semblance has some crazy goddamn range
Let's take the time to understand just how crazy fucking prepared Cinder was and how extensive her plan was, from working with terrorists and thugs to hacking into Beacon to take control of their stuff
Neo stomped an entire ship of soldiers solo
yooo Roman

so much shit is happening in Beacon holy fuck
