"Ruby, being Ruby, proceeds to follow them to their hideout. Of course, she's slightly more competent about it than Blake" This. So. Much. YAAASSSSSS  bwahahahahahahahahha I always say that for a ninja, Blake is pretty terrible at stealth. So the fact that you referenced that>>>>.

I think it's a solid episode. It's building up to the Volume/Season Finale so yay. These episodes are making RWBY a bit more edgy and I like it. These last two episodes have definitely been a reality check for our girls. They are not invincible. Specifically Ruby, who, with her weapon is a professional a*s kicker, but take it away and all you have is a very vunerable young girl. Monty did say she relies on her weapon a lot though, so when disarmed she's vunerable. With that being said, her being pimp slapped should have been expected. However, It was still a bit jarring to see the nightmare to all nevermores and beowolves across the land, being knocked out in such a way. The violence(explicit or otherwise implied) was a wake up call. I wouldn't mind at all if RWBY became progressively darker. I'd be impressed if they could maintain the light heartedness and stay away from the Madoka Magica territory *shudders*. Madoka Magica....such a great show. *starts crying*

I'm excited for next episode!!!! I do wonder what Roman will do to Ruby. He obviously has no qualms about killing children.

Another good blog! Boop!
