Given that the legal age is 18, this somewhat perturbs me.


It varies between states. Federal law says 18, but that only applies to sexual acts that involve travel between states, countries, or on federal property. This includes communication. For the rest, it's the purview of the states themselves, with 32 having the age of consent at 16, 9 at 17, and 10 at 18.

The more you know.

I find it odd, how they tip toe the line between dark and edgy (a whole settlement condemned to being devoured by Grimm by Vale) and kid friendly (army of Grimm invade Vale, assault various civilians, everyone gets out alive with minor scratches and some minor property damage).


Good point. I wonder why they dont show blood, or scratches. The show could be more mature.

That was a typo, should have been 17. But you probably could have figured that out regardless.

Figured it was a typo, but wasn't completely sure. Someone showed me a book with some really strange laws some countries, states, cities, etc. have and after seeing that I can believe almost anything.

I thought the robots where going to be the mooks that got destroyed and further strengthened the idea that organized military is a shit-stain compared to adolesent children in school.....But they actually killed a lot of grimm.

Given how they landed, and stuff we previously saw, I think they were robots. Also, we have to cement that they're actually good at fighting for later on, when they turn on the protagonists as part of the bad guy's evil schemes.

They're robots. Those were the 'knights' Ironwood revealed early on along with the Paladin, new models set to replace the robots Blake and Adam fought in the Black Trailer as Vale's primary security force.

Those robots sucked. Like, it took several of them just to gun down one Ursa, who wasn't even fighting back and many of them got trashed iirc. There were just a lot of the robots, which made them useful as fodder against the Grimm.

Not like they were needed anyway, with how the Beacon students annihilated any kind of challenge, as always.

Some 'great threat to humanity' they were if first years can handle them no problem.

True. Then again, robots don't have Aura, or Semblances, and as per genre conventions they mainly employ the tactic of wave spamming the enemy with numbers, which leaves them a tad outclassed compared to the Beacon folks. The main reason they're used it probably because you can build them in large numbers, they never retreat, they don't feel fear, and they don't take as much logistics compared to a human army.

But yeah, they're gonna get wrekt like all of Juniors mooks when the time comes.

Penny is a robot with an aura and therefor, a semblance. :p

The robots entire purpose is just to get hacked by Cinder so they can fuck up Vale. Or maybe not.

Because all Cinder has done is chuckle sinisterly and deliver flat lines about how 'everything is going according to plan', so we don't have the slightest inclination of what her grand chess master schemes are.

I hope Roman turns out to be the big bad in the end or doubles crosses her. He's so much better as a villain.

Also robots would attract Grimm with the negative emotions so ambushes and the like would be easier. But yea, there has always been that problem of 'ohh, These guys are super strong and fucked over cities and can't be stopped without superness' and then proceed to curb-stomp everyone of them at every situation. Even Jaune took out an Ursa with no help on his second go.

Penny is special, as should be fairly evident by the fact that they bothered to give her synthetic skin, and is also a super prototype that may never be replicated. As compared to these robots who are mass produced models

And yes, it is. I know I figured that out about five minutes after seeing the Black Queen virus teaser.

And as I expect it, the White Fang and Cinder's faction will try to take each other out on the verge of victory, and Roman will go along with her so long as it's in his best interests to do so.

Cinder is actually Roman's girlfriend. He is pussy-whipped.

WHO ELSE WISHES TO CHALLENGE JACK TO CARD GAMES?

Even on motorcycles if you want.

Also I'm right now on the verge of collapsing in on myself with what RPs to open...
