Chapter 3 is available translated, courtesy of Remnant Scans. You can read it at their Wordpress Blog.

Some interesting stuff in this chapter, not only courtesy of Weiss backstory (which I hope they are not planning to dump all in the manga but actually we get to see fully fledged in the series).

- 1st, I'm going to say the artwork of this chapter in particular is gorgeous. The mangaka is in his element with Weiss' dress. And I'm saying this as someone who, in general, finds the overall art style odd.

- Looks like I was right with my assumption Weiss was given the "Lady Like" upbringing. She even plays the piano.

- Also seems like she didn't attend Combat School, but rather got trained by SDC tutors and technology.

- The Schnee are not pleased by Winter.

- Sounds like Myrtenaster is more of a SDC product and less like something Weiss forged herself. Take note OC creators wondering just about how close to that weapon design is safe to get.

- Papa Schnee is one of thus "No achievement is enough above the average peasant" type of parents... and he relies his parental duties on employees... Dude is making Raven look good.

- Confirmed Weiss literally picked Beacon just to be far far away from her family... Interesting comment about the company covering up messes that would give them a bad name.

- That Giant Armour is different from the one in the White Trailer. Still good to know Giant Armours are a thing in universe and were really used to train Weiss. The White Trailer is looking less and less metaphorical by the second.

- POSSESSION TYPE Grimm?!?!?! Well, that explains why the Giant Armour in the White Trailer just disintegrated after being defeated... Also opens a whole new territory to explore in Fanfiction... I want to see them in the show itself, too.

- The SDC has exactly zero problems to: experiment on Grimm, weaponise them and then throw them at 16-17 years olds. That's a whole new level of moral greyness, no wonder they get on well with Ironwood.

- There is a "Schnee Museum". Curious as to if it is a museum dedicated to the Schnees (man, they must be important to Atlas history if there is), a museum named after them (again, wtf did the Schnee do for Atlas to get that?) or a museum owned by them (wonder if it's open to the public or within the house)

- That "Let's go Myrtenaster" gave me such a Pokemon vibe.
