Good review, though there is one thing: Weiss's trailer 100% took place in the past. In fact, I think it's a safe bet that all of them did, but Weiss's did for sure. Why? Because that fight with the giant armour is where she got her scar from. As for Ruby's trailer, I'd think that it also happens in the past as well, due to Ruby saying that she has experience with fighting monsters in the past. As for why she doesn't do so well when she was first working with Weiss? Ruby has always been a solo fighter ("I'm just fine on my own!), and isn't used to taking others into consideration in combat. Her fighting monsters on her own is something she's comfortable and skilled at. Working with a partner, is something completely new to her. Plus, she was trying to prove herself, so she probably thought "If I can get that thing before her, that'll have to make her respect me."

Other than that, good review.
