I caught a chronic fever by the time episode 14 came around. By the time I recovered it has been a week since, so I decided not to do any review, there were no broken legs anyway.

But I'll be damned if I don't say anything about this one. It's Blake's arc!

In the end, Blake is a confirmed Faunus, it's scary how fans can speculate so accurately sometimes. And a part of the internet exploded with "I knew it!!"s. I pointed out the unavoidable conflict between Weiss and Blake before, and it happened right away. But I never thought the Schnee family history with the White Fang would be that tragic.

They HAVE to reconcile somehow, and I don't think the process would be pretty.

We got introduced to 2 new characters: the Faunus Sun Wukong and the weirdo (sorry) Penny, who happen to be voiced by the series art director herself. Not much is known about them yet, aside from the fact that Wukong seems to be interested in Blake, probably because he knew that she's a White Fang. And that Penny's participating in the tournament, so she might be more than meets the eye.

And it looks like Torchwick nailed another Dust shop. Still wondering why he never took the money as well, could be useful to actually purchase more Dusts legitimately.

To conclude, this 10 minutes long episode still left much to answer for. There's also the possibility that Velvet will be dragged into this arc as well. I'm really intersted to see where this will go.

Hang in there Blake!

Speculation time:

- Since it's hinted that all White Fangs are Faunus, then Adam is one as well? Or was he just a mercenary?

- Why did Blake decided to get into Beacon after she left Adam? To redeem her past? To prove that Faunus can also be an equal hunter? Or to gain more power to liberate the opressed Faunus?
