Oh well, I didn't think about shipping Jaune with Weiss, you know? After she rejected his flirting attempts so harshly in both Volume 1 and 2 I doubt that is going to happen. Maybe there will be a new girl introduced or someone you'd have never expected to have any kind of romantic interest in Jaune... I think after Jaune encouraged Neptune to go out with Weiss that probably changed her impression of him. Whether she thought he was after her for her name or just because she was a girl whose sarcastic remarks he badly misconstrued, Jaune resolved any concerns she would have had about his intentions and character by selflessly making way for Neptune. Given Neptune's character, I can't really say that he is going to be good for Weiss or be able to maintain a relationship. I can definitely see Weiss and Jaune having a real romance down the line.

That is something I saw too, how Weiss was kind of surprised Jaune gave up his pursuit with Weiss, but still went out of his way to help her with Neptune, when before it was assumed he was just after her name and money. She seemed to have become civil with him, even being concerned with Jaune's well being in the Battle of Beacon. I can't see Weiss getting together with Jaune anytime soon however, if only because they're too far apart geographically. Weiss is stuck in Atlas and Jaune is just about to get to Mistral. Thay also don't have any reason to think about each other (Weiss is too busy losing her freedom while Jaune is potentially haunted by Pyrrha's death).
