@ .137 Portal?

Just watched Vol 1 opening slow mo. What I saw was:

00:40 Black sphere appears then starts to shrink with a halo effect.

00:41 Pulses red and black expands and contracts twice with a swirling effect.

00:42 Flashes black with red border expands.

00:43 Shoots black beam breaks white ground

00:44 Shoots larger black beam

00:45 RWBY charges black sphere

00:46 Fade to black

00:47 Beacon hunter statue fades in from black.

It does not appear to be the same effect as Vermillion's Portal to me.
