And she's not the only person with that eye color or shape.

....Granted, Cinder was still being obviously-evil.

second Qrow was within viewing distance of the maiden's attackers Actually, if you look right, Emerald kinda blurs her face, Merc's and Cinder's when Qrow is approaching them. So he didn't actually get a clear view of their faces.

and finally Blake could have saw the villains cause it was revealed she noticed them at the White Fang camp! Did she? I thought she didn't actually meet them herself. Anyway...

That was an unspecified amount of time before she, personally, saw them again (at the tournament and festival).

She had no reason to care much about them when she first saw them (most likely didn't even expect to see them ever again), and she's had quite a lot on her mind between that day and the tournament, so overall it makes perfect sense she wouldn't remember them at all.

one last question, how did some people fall for the whole blaming Atlas thing when White Fang were running around?
