So you're telling me Pyrrha went and touched every single one of those soda cans, off screen? I just explained this... her ability is clearly conducted through the f*king liquid...that all of the cans were lying in... neither the cans nor liquid should be conductive in this scene based off of real world science(unless Remnant's grape soda analogue has heavy metals in it)... so in the end this scene cannot be used to define anything about how her semblance works anyways.

And, no. Living together does not by any stretch of the imagination mean she would have touched his shield- she may have done, but, not necessarily. when you both live and fight together... I have to disagree

I don't remember any of this "she has to touch the metal she's trying to manipulate" business being mentioned at all.

you already found this yourself.

If you go back through every battle where she uses her semblance, you should find this rule stands as to how she manipulates others weapons... she takes a hit to either her person or metallic weapons, and only at that point can she use her semblance.
