I really liked this episode. Jaune's description of his semblance was really nice and it cleared up remaining controversy on it's nature. Some people have said they don't like his semblance but I think it fits him and could be really useful as he learns to control it. I felt that Ruby's headbutt was really satisfying as it shows how she's grown as a fighter and because it finally wiped that smug smile off Mercury's face (plus I loved her line about shutting him up). I was kind of disappointed by the RY vs EM fight as they didn't show much of it but whatever. Blake showing up with the police and the faunus of Menagerie was really nice (I really liked the moment between Mata and the guy in the white fang) but I was kind of disappointed with how fast it went down for Adam. I really hope we get a good fight out of him in the next episode. The Raven vs Cinder fight was awesome though the giant swords were a bit ridiculous. I have seen people questioning whether or not Cinder is dead and I can see where they're coming from but I do hope she's dead. As people have said that would be a really poetic way to die if a bit unsatisfying with the Jaune/Ruby plotlines (it will be interesting to see Jaune's reaction to her death). Weiss summoning a lancer (looked like the queen) was really satisfying and it was nice to see Yang control her anger like her father told her to. I don't really know what she was thinking she was going to do without her arm since, as far as she knew, she was going into a battle with three people, two of which were maidens, but whatever. Did anyone notice how long it took Yang to fall? That seemed a bit weird to me. The door and subsequent pocket dimesion were really cool. Raven and Yang's conversation should be good and I hope Yang finally gets some answers. Overall, I'm really excited for the next episode!
