That definitely looked like certain death. It was just irony right there, calling himself a survivor then getting swallowed up. However, if this guy survives, I'm predicting a face turn where he would go against Cinder.

Or Roman could turn into a Grimm-Human hybrid and command the Grimm at will! :D
Seriously though, he's too much of a butt monkey villain to actually happen

I'm gonna miss him. Best voice actor, best villain, funniest character, top tier fighter tbh. GONE. I had to pause after he got eaten and just...process. RIP in peace, buddy. Your death was a little too hard to swallow.

@KiddDon't worry, I suspect that he'll be back some how like being turned into a robot.
Or have his cane suddenly shoot out of a wreck.

On a similar note about villains:

Adam...

I knew he was messed up, but I didn't know the extent of it until this last episode. He was totally turning everything on Blake and making her feel like it was all her fault. I hate him for what he did to Yang... but honestly, I have high respect for him as a villain now.

I agree. He's an unapologetic piece of shit and reminds me of Cinder and Torchwick in that regard. It's wonderful to have villains that are actually villains.

I mean, in contrast, Emerald is becoming a bit sympathetic (genuinely finding the chaos "sad"). I don't mean to sound like I'm putting her character down, but I prefer the bad guys to actually be bad, haha.

yeah but with Em, you gotta remember she's only following Cinder so she can "never go hungry" so, she may still have some sort of sympathy left in her, you know?

Methinks Emerald is definitely the one who will turn sides first. As OneWayOut said, she's only doing it so she doesn't starve. She's not really bad, just misunderstood(god, talk about Anime cliche ).

Oh, I agree completely! It makes sense for her character and I still like her. I just prefer villains to be villainous

I think we can definitely count on Cinder Fall to be our One True Villain of RWBY.

Prediction: Yang gets a badass roboto arm.

Also, isn't blake wounded? I mean Adam stabbed her but she seemed to shrug it off.

Yeah?? I thought she'd be, like, bleeding out

Dude, that guy fired a blast from his cane, and struck it like a freakin' baseball for extra swag!

Nanomachines, son! Just kidding. It's Aura taking effect. My guess is that it wore off a bit if Adam was able to pierce her (bet it's not the first time either, bowchikawowow). She might have regained it after the emotional trauma of seeing team mate Yang getting seriously injured. That, and she's a survivor, as discussed between her and Ozpin at the first few episodes of Vol 2. A stab to the leg won't stop her from running.

I agree with V. I mean, Yang got her arm cut off and all that was shown was yellow dust stuff. Considering she's not bleeding out (nor did Amber when she was shot with an arrow both times) I can only assume Aura comes into effect when it comes to deep wounds like that, so that could be why she's still able to move. Also, Aura helps heal wounds like when Jaune got a cut on his cheek, perhaps it healed her enough to stop whatever bleeding took place prior to her getting Yang out of there.

Inb4 anyone brings up Weiss' scar on her eye and how she was bleeding in the trailer, I have no explanation for that one.

I have a feeling that Yang's blood was the way it was (other than for censoring reasons) because her Aura was in use. A side effect, kind of like Ruby's rose petals.

Amber's and Yang's situations are strange. See, Amber clearly still has some Aura left; enough for Pyrrah to absorb, and eventually for Cinder to steal the rest. That arrow finished her off, if not Cinder's Aura-stealing ability, since Aura is the manifestation of the soul (good job watching the door, Jaune). So yeah, why no blood? At least with Yang she was in full super-saiyan. So it was Aura running through her at the moment of the attack. But considering that, how the hell did Adam manage to cut her arm off if Aura is supposed to prevent that from happening? Yang could not have been exhausted of Aura by time of the encounter, hell she fought the least when the Grimm invaded. Either Adam is that damn powerful, or that sword is OP.

As for Weiss, not even RWBY wikia has an answer for the scar. Something to do with the scar already being seen before she receives the injury. So that remains a mystery. Assuming it's a fresh new wound, likely she already depleted her aura reserve, just enough so she could no longer stop attacks from cutting the skin. She can fight and use her abilities, but that protective coat is gone.

Wait... this thread exists? How have I not found it sooner?
