Okay, I suppose my real problem with this is Ruby dying. Ruby is the least developed of the main 8, but is should be safe to assume that she will gain a large amount of character development over the coming volumes. Ruby is the main character, and for her to gain so much character development only to be killed off, and have another character defeat Salem does not sit well with me. It seems like a waste.

Personally, I want Yang to search for her mother. With team RWBY split up, there's nothing holding her back from getting the answers she has been looking for. For me, it was always Weiss and Blake where I couldn't figure out what they'd be doing for vol.4.

Sorry, I don't have an in-universe reason for the moon breaking. Though many others have speculated as to the reason, I never really questioned it.
