To me, the whole battle with the huntsman that weiss has seems to be a glatiadoral trial type of thing.

For one thing there's the scenery - a mirror between an 'arena' like the 02, as a concert venue for her to sing in, and an 'arena' as in the roman gladiator arenas. Weiss seems to be pretty into illusion and reality too, what with 'real' and 'magic' attacks, and 'reality' and 'imagery' within a mirror. So the black knight could be a projection of part of her personality, or a projection by someone else for her to fight? She hardly seems keen, eager or determined to fight either, which would tie in with her fighting her illusions, fighting her destiny (armour is meant to be worn - what if she's fighting the role that others want to put her in? Like she's trying to fight the protective encasement?) or with fighting as a royal trial.

Also, she's lonaly and depressed, and depression makes you question the boundaries between illusion and reality greatly - also makes you question yourself and your personality. She's the 'loneliest', despite her large audience and obvious applause - so she's lonely amidst recognition, which suggests that she doesn't consider herself to be the same person that everyone sees her as. Her loneliness also provides greater contrasts - of the three trailers so far, hers has been the one involving the most people. Whilst this makes sense because adam and blake obviously have a close bond, so are less lonely, theoretically it would be easy for Ruby to be considered 'lonely' as she fights alone without audience or support and has obviously lost someone (with the gravestone).

Just some random interesting points :) Sorry if they don't make sense, it's quite late over here.

But yeah, I only saw these trailers the other day and I'm already dying for the next..
