Again though, with eleven new characters to introduce (Velvet's team, Sun's associates, Penny's people, Mercury, Emerald) and seven characters to so much as start developing (Yang, Cinder, Miltia, Melanie, Junior, Velvet, Nora and Ren), do we really need another arc to tell us that Team Cardinal are dicks?

It seems odds to give them more antagonist screen-time now that we have actual antagonists... and little need for antagonistic conflict in the first place (we have what could be two volumes worth of plot slapping us in the face with the Vytal Festival if Monty wanted to do it that way).

I don't care about Cardin, if Yang breaks his jaw then good for Velvet but really I don't want to see another "Cardinal victimise Juniper" storyline, especially given the fact that the last one easily resulted in the only four not good episodes of Volume 1...
