I'm excited to see the Grimm become threats. For one reason or another, a lot of users on here have actually started to sympathize with the Grimm, saying that every encounter with them was actually the fault of the characters and the only reason Hunters kill them is because they lack a soul.

In the second Production Diary however, they mention we will learn a little more about the Grimm and get to see what the Grimm are really capable of.
