I have been saying Taiyang's timign for sending Zwei was too good to be coincidence. Animals have aura and the latest WoR said they are not attacked by Grimm like humans, so they could certainly be a very good aid for hunters.

Entirely unfounded, of course, but I think Neo might actually have a few tricks up her sleeve that work on a more subtle level. Either she was doing something to directly attack Yang's mind, or she was somehow weakening her--note that when Yang went down, she stayed down, which seemed a little disconcerting to me.

Maybe not, though. And like I said, entirely unfounded. We'll just have to wait and see. While I agree that Neo's advantage was largely on how she dodged Yang's attacks and all the hits she delivered were to very debilitating points, at one moment, when Yang punches, you can see a "glass wall" shatering in front of Neo as she takes a step back. So Neo's illucions were at work there.
