Hard to disagree on the semblance exposition. That scene was, in my opinion, the weakest of the entire episode, what with Nolan somehow not thinking to do anything other than keep zapping Nora, despite it being imediately appearent that it isn't working as intended, and despite the entire long exposition from Oobleck. Would have been a heck of a lot better if Nora had simply grabbed the cattle prod and stopped him from pulling back with it.

However, I think BRNZ not attacking at the end makes sense. It's a tournament, after all. Blasting them away when they're clearly not even paying attention is just bad form.

SSSN vs NDGO was, in my opinion, actually a pretty nice fight. The principle flaw I had in Ep 1; that everyone just stood around when they were out of focus, was entirely gone, just like that, with a lot of things happening in the background.

Also, while I think the end to that fight was pretty silly, I'm kinda inclined to forgive it because Qrow imediately called it a mess, which sort of implies we weren't meant to see it as an epic battle.
