Not sure this is allowed to be said, so if it isn't, one of the admins, please edit this part out, but they did a documentary called "CRWBY" and it accidentally leaked information for this volume.

First of which, is that Yang does join in on fighting Adam.

Second of which, is what's underneath Adam's mask/blindfold. It's scar tissue, he's got several scars on his face, one noticeably hook shaped.

Plus, not the first time they did this. They included Oscar's scene's in Volume 4 despite him not impacting the plot until Volume 5. They had to introduce him so he wouldn't come absolutely out of the blue conveniently when he's important, slowly explain why Ozpin is in his head instead of doing a massive sudden info dump, and set up that there's a history between Ozpin and Hazel early on so that it also wouldn't be totally out of the blue. Kinda one of the points I was making. Even if it was to make sure he didn't come out of nowhere, Oscar's scenes in Volume 4 were entirely disconnected from the rest of Volume 4. The only person he interacted with outside of Ozma was Qrow, and that was only in the stinger which was recycled into the Volume 5 Opener. It still impacted Volume 5 and had to be done, but from a standalone perspective, Oscar's scenes were superfluous.

The same is said for Cinder and Neo's scenes, they're important for Volume 7, but they needed to be put here so it doesn't seem out of nowhere. However, it makes them come across as superfluous from the standalone perspective.
