The episode was great, but they could have done a better job with informing the fans on how they were going to release it. Ruby's voice is much better than in the Yellow trailer and no longer bothers me. Shannon and Kathleen are fantastic as Ozpin and Glynda. They fit the roles while still sounding like themselves while also not sounding too much like the RvB roles they are more well known for. They've definitely shot to the top few of my favorites.

I find the animation could still be better, in particular with the hands. A lot of the time, the hands don't look like they're properly gripping something. It's almost like everyone has Spider-Man hands; their palms are sticky and they don't have to grip anything. That is something that I think could be improved on. I also find that some of the other characters designs just feel really lazily slapped together with no thought, msotly Jaune's in my opinion.
