As an example, I marvel that no one recognizes Yang even though the Vytal Festival is shown to be BIG (like the Superbowl in the USA), and Yang was a major scandal in it which should make her the most easily recognized fighter (behind Penny and Pyrrha), but it's like no one recognizes her.

I know that's nitpicky, but it's things like that which bother me, because it makes it a bit harder for me to get immersed in the story. (And season 3, while great for action, had many moments that just didn't make sense story wise or character wise which is why I don't like it as much as many others do.) On the Yang thing, yeah, that really doesn't make sense, though the only people we saw Yang run into were the fuel station employee and the bandits. The bandits tend to roam around and live in camps in the middle of nowhere, so they may not have actually watched the tournament. I'm not sure about the fuel station employee.

What did you see wrong with Volume 3, if you don't mind me asking? For me, the Volume 3 issues are big.


 * Namely Pyrrha going off to fight Cinder. I know she was planned to die from the beginning, but in what form of logic did that make any sense? Did she really think she could stop someone who bested Ozpin? OR was she just suicidal? It didn't seem like something Pyrrha would do.
 * Dropped Plotlines.
 * Remember the big worry that Pyrrha wouldn't be the same person after absorbing Amber's aura and Maiden powers? Dropped when Cinder interrupted the transfer.

So many problems with Volume 3 for me. 1) THIS. I never really got WHY Pyrrha went to fight Cinder. It was super weird, and though the fight was good, it kind of feld forced.

2) I really, really, wanted to see this, and how it would play out with Pyrrha and Amber, but instead they chose the easy way out and killed her.
