So finally read through all the tread after watching the episode. Yang not putting on the robotic arm makes me wonder about the possibly multiple reasons behind it.

1.Maybe she scared to fight anymore, and she beleives as long as she's still handicapped she won't be expected to fight anymore. 2.Yang was rather proud of her Body, maybe she feels insecure about replacing any part of it with something artificial.

Also does anyone remember the begining of the yellow trailer. "Scathing eyes ask that we be symmetrical, one sided and easily processed. Yet every misshappen spark's unseen beauty is greater than its would be judgement." These lines make me think It was planned for Yang to eventualy lose her arm before episode 1 even aired.

Going back to the matter at hand(I swear that pun was unintended), I think this means we may see Yang fighting without a prostetic arm for possibly multiple reasons. 3. So she never forgets the consequences of rushing to battle and losing her cool. 4. If Ruby didn:t tell Yang about seeing Mercury before the invasion, she may be feeling guilty, and beleives missing an arm is her due karma after she alegedly dismembered Mercury's leg (an 'eye for an eye', and 'a limb for limb'). Remember while it was a fake peeformanve done mostly be Emerald, Team RWBY was on friendly terms with Emerald and Mercury.

Speaking of Emerald and Mercury, is anyone else dissapointed that all they've done this volume is translate for Cinder and look scared? I mean I don't have a problem with them jumping ship to good guys eventualy. But they seem completely useless as villians at this point. If anything they've been designated as Cinder's hand servants while she recovers. Seriously, the three awesome villians from last volume are so pitable right now.
