      When she swings her blade at 2:25 is aura. She also does that in the Black trailer, when she doesn't seem to have dust. The dust is incorporated into her semblance (stone, ice, and fire). It doesn't appear that she's using gravity dust (which generally exerts a pulling force like in the Grim Reaper's fight against Tock), unless dust affects both her semblance and attacks.

    Those dust upgrades Blake had made all the difference against Torchwick, he didn't expect them at all, he probably figured it'd be the same as when he fought both Blake and Sun at the same time. Torchwick is a pretty damn competent fighter for a regular dude, but at the end of the day he's just that, a regular dude with no special semblance skullduggery to fall back on. Heck its debatable if he even has aura or not, I think he does given some of the crap he's survived, but we've had no visible evidence of it. I like how he keeps his cool even when his plans are falling apart.

In the very least, RWBY's post-v4 writing problems seem to have been fixed over time, but nerfing a character when something in the plot needs to happen(partially excluding v6, adam was seeing red at the time and though the whole 'no!' at the sword thing was a little bit off, it made sense that he'd be off his game) still sadly seems to be something that happens a lot.

    I think I finally figured out why weiss loses every fight. It's because she's not prepared for underhanded tactics look at when the white Fang member grabs her, her eyes are pretty firmly focused on the chainsaw to make sure she doesn't have to defend so she's entirely unprepared for his sudden change in tactics. if you look at the parts of the fight before she gets grabbed she's actually doing pretty well he only wins because he starts fighting dirty. like seriously think about it, every time weiss loses a fight it's always too underhanded tactics (I mean feel free to correct me on that but still you can't deny that's why she loses most of the time)

    Very interesting to see Yang wasn't able to use her semblance against Neo. Yang semblance is based on storing energy from opponent's attack and blasting it back, but Neo didn't use her energy to attack her. Instead, she was using Yang's momentum to drive her back. Therefore Yang has no energy to store because it's basically her own energy.
    Besides, Yang's gauntlet attacks were meant to kill Grimm, hand to hand combat is very hard to kill another human being. Yang had no intend of killing Neo, only defeating her. But all that changes when Raven appeared, she meant business. Of all the dust blades, ice to immobilize, lightning to stun, wind to dodge/elevate, stone to block/defend, she chose fire to burn & kill. Raven wasn't there to defeat, she was there to kill, and she chose a fresh blade for Neo. That's a fucking warning.

    Interesting how Neo shows fear upon Raven's appearance. I never knew why this was until Volume 5, but now it makes sense. Raven quit working for Salem and Cinder must have seen her as a viable threat around this time. Neo, being part of Cinder's posse, recognized said threat and booked it outta there before she got hurt.

      It's not like the animators CAN'T animate good fights. In fact, when they're allowed to show off their skills, the scenes they make are really great, almost on par with Monty. Just look at all the cool fights we had in V6-7:
      - Cinder vs Neo
      - Yang & Blake vs Adam
      - RWBY vs Ace Ops
      - Ironwood vs Watts
      The real issue is the writers that, for some reason, focus too much on dialog and insist on making characters comically incompetent because it creates more "drama" and "tension".

    Also, I don't think that Neo was ever there. Neo's semblance is to create illusions, but said illusions are tangible and can be shattered. So that's why she deflected most of Yang's attacks and barely attacked her at all--she didn't want to give away the fact that she wasn't even there to begin with. That's why it was so easy for her to just vanish upon seeing Raven.

  • @mr.cup6yearsago211
    @mr.cup6yearsago211 Před 3 lety +4

    Take notes, Battle of Haven, this is how you do a large scale battle. You’ve got tons of heroes and villains with varying skill levels going toe to toe, so of course it’s going to be a chaotic mess of victories and defeats. Neo defeats Yang, Blake defeats Torchwick, the White Fang guy defeats Weiss, and then Blake escapes with Weiss.
    Meanwhile, the Battle of Haven is an entire fight consisting of the good guys and bad guys being in a stalemate with nobody going down for 20 minutes until Raven manages to defeat Cinder in a skirmish completely disconnected from the rest of the fight and snag the relic, making the bad guys retreat instead of continuing the fight because nothing had actually changed other than that the good guys had the macguffin now. (Seriously, why did they retreat? Cinder hadn’t been contributing to the fight anyway, and now Yang’s down an arm. I can understand Emerald and Mercury not being terribly invested in the fight with Cinder presumed dead, but for the love of god Hazel was there.)
    Also, you know, in the train battle most of the fighting is actually on screen.

    I agree that Roman was taken by surprise with the dust semblance, but I don't think he really lost. I'm convinced he stops on purpose. I mean, the guy once had a blade to his throat and still got out of it. Yeah, he had his weapon there, but what's to stop him from sliding his foot to throw Blake off balance and grabbing it again. Instead, he just sort of gives up and lets Blake kick him. I feel as if he isn't fighting seriously in this encounter. Then I also remember he's a survivor type. There's no way out of this, and the train will crash. So, he chooses to let Blake hit him and he just "plays possum" until she leaves. Then gets back up and then uses the rest of his aura to survive the train crash. It's probably then he decides to let Emerald and Mercury take him to get arrested so he can be broken out by Neo later. The way he says "Well, it's about time" in volume 3 episode 9, it's like he was expecting Neo to get to him. And what better way for Cinder to implant a virus on Atlas tech than a guy who's already on board with piloting skills?
