Pretty good impressions, though certain things:

1. Corsac didn't say "He ruined everything" he "You ruined everything". I watched that episode like 10 times already because of the cool action scenes and Ilia's breakdown. So the line makes sense since he is blaming them for ruining the plan.

2. While Ilia is forgiven, I don't believe it is forgotten. Remember, we only see Ilia ally with the Belladonna's, we don't see her lose her resentment for humanity. Much like how Weiss had to ease Blake being a former WF member, Ilia will need to readjust to being around humans. Not to mention that they don't really say its forgotten, Ghira and Blake just say she is forgiven.

Besides, most of this volume Blake has been trying to get Ilia to realize she's fucking up royally. I don't think sending her to jail when the plot has built up her redemption is a good move, as it would take her out of the story and make the redemption less meaningful. It's rushed so far, but her being forgiven was the only option with the given setup.

Then there is of course the potential double standard. Like Ilia, Blake too was with the White Fang's Radical Version, and probably did things too. The difference is that with Ilia we actually see some of it. But undoubtedly, Blake did some things too, she helped out Adam in the train heist until the end afterall. If Blake were to hold what Ilia did against her when Ilia desires to change, when she herself was on the same path as her, more than likely did just as much if not more due to being near Adam all the time, and still managed to get off scott free law wise herself, it would come across as kinda hypocritical.

3. Sun to me seems incapable of holding a grudge, he is that easy going. He didn't hold Weiss being a bitch to him against her, didn't hold Blake slapping him upside the head four times against him (No matter how much he deserved it), and he didn't even lose his cool with Blake till she got into one of her "I cause my friends nothing but pain" moods. Hell, when he brought her up in Chapter 5, he was more expressing remorse for Blake than Anger at remembering her. So I think him "Wanting Revenge" was just him talking tough for Blake.

Not to mention the stab doesn't seem to have been that lethal. It looks like it only needed to be bandaged up and next morning he's back to normal. So him being stabbed by her when she got triggered is like someone pissing someone else off, and that person punching the first person in the face and breaking their nose. It hurts like a bitch, but it isn't anything life threatening. So he doesn't really seem mad. Remember that "Tis but a scratch" meme? Well for him, it might as well have been a scratch.
