User blog:RaijinRising/Thoughts on Volume One

Hey everyone, I thought I would make a blog about reflections on Volume One. Overall, I think it was really solid on what it put out. The characters are all very unique (in both looks and dispositions) and the world has so much groundwork for future seasons. There were some things I would have wanted more of, sure, like more appearances of a character or more development of a mechanic or said character.

Here's a list of the unanswered little things I think could have happened.

Clarification on Aura and Semblance and how they interact (if at all)

A full list of fighting styles possible in this world (for fans to make awesome OC Teams)

More Velvet appearances (I mean come on, she had like a minute on screen.)

Yang could have had more character development.

And this last one is a small one. In the volume finale, I kinda wish that Yang had Blake and Weiss hug upon meeting up. Just as a way to settle their differences and such.

Semblance and Aura will be clarified in due time. I just want to know if using Semblance is also a way to drain Aura. I think right now it's up to the fans to run wild with their OC ideas. I just wish I could know everything about Dust to see "What if it could be used alongside this to make this?". Yang's easy-going nature prevents much character growth. She's sort of a source of comedy with her playfulness. The most growth she had was in episode eight when she saw Ruby coming into her own. With Velvet, I think we all know she'll have center spotlight in due time with her team and combat gear. So for me, I think all of my questions or wishes will be fulfilled soon. Volume One got a lot done, so I can't blame it for not having these things.

What are your thoughts on Volume One? What (if anything) would you change about the events?
