User blog comment:SomeoneYouUsedToKnow/SYUTK's V5E10 - The Hottest RWBY Episode Ever(?) - Impressions/Recap/@comment-4010415-20171222233523/@comment-25936766-20171223164925

1) If they're all really dead, dead dead, then it makes one wonder whodunnit. I mean, Qrow is basically saying dozens of profesional Huntsmen died.

I doubt it was CAME since they were sent to get Raven's help, and the Huntsmen were dead by then. Hazel is likely busy with Adam. That leaves only Tyrian, and if he couldn't even defeat Qrow, I doubt he could kill more than 20 people of similar skill level.

Now, if it was a Grimm, it must be some super-powerful one, which makes one wonder why they went for such a subterfugist plan instead of just razing Haven like they did with Beacon.

The alternative explanation is that Haven is horrendous at actually training and teaching their students. Which...makes sense when you look at SSSN and ABRN.

4) Oh, social anxiety? That thing of Ruby that seemingly vanished midway through Volume 1?

Even if she had social anxiety regarding asking Ozpin.....she could've asked Qrow, her idol, the person she loves more than she loves her own father. Hell, she could've asked after Qrow explained the Relics required the Maidens to get.

And even if she didn't ask, it's something Ozpin should've told them ASAP, especially after Yang told him to stop it with the secrets. Because, like FMF said, the fate of the world depends on the answer to that question.

5) Of course, that's assuming it's Mind Control of some sort. The problem with Choice is that while "Creation, Destruction and Knowledge" are obvious-enough on what they do, Choice is pretty vague. It could well be something else.

Besides, if it was Mind Control of such a great degree, you'd think Ozpin would've used it to fight Salem. Just use it so she has no pawns to play Chess with.

Actually, if the Relics are so powerful how come he never used them to defeat her? Either there's some great cost if one uses them, or Ozpin is a tremendous idiot. And both sound likely.

8) I doubt they had their Semblances unlocked by the time they took the Initiation. I mean, their tribe fucking sucks, enough to require them to go train as Huntsmen to even stand a chance against anything that wasn't mere villagers.

Which means they likely didn't get decent training, even less decent education. They probably were little better than Jaune was back in V1.

9) Did you notice any shots aimed at Kali while she stood there unarmed after her pistol ran out of ammo? Did you notice any shots while she picked up the tray? Did you notice any shots when Kali stopped guarding her face with said tray as she spoke to the useless fox guard? Did you notice any shots while she was distracted looking at Yuma?

Cause I didn't. It's like they just left.

10) Ah, songs in the credits. Back in the good old Beacon Arc days. It wouldn't hurt them to do it again even if via recycling an old song. Better than the "generic ominous creepy background music" that they nearly always use that makes the credits just boring to watch.

12) But that argument depends on 2 things:

1>That Faunus have the exact/nearly-the-same amount of rods and cones as the animals they are, or in comparison to humans.

2>That Miles and Kerry know this and took it into account.

With the former it's questionable since the Night Vision seems pretty good regardless of animal species. Note how Sun had no problems seeing in the dark back in V2E4 despite being a Monkey, who don't really have a Night Vision much better than ours.

And with the latter.....it's questionable due to Miles and Kerry being Miles and Kerry.

So overall it seems like the species itself doesn't have an effect on their night vision. So being a cat wouldn't matter.

So, how well would Blake, realistically, see in the dark if we assume it's "like humans but better"? Well, it depends on what exactly that means.

For starters, neither cats nor humans "see things in monochrome" at dark. Both see colors. But due to our inferior number of rods, we don't get enough light in the dark to see things well. With cats, they do, and they can tell the colors.

However, while cats also see Green-Blue like us, they have problems with Red and similar colors. Their vision is also far more pale and less detailed. Doesn't mean they can't tell that a blue car is blue, but it does mean they see a more pale blue than we would. Meanwhile, they would be confused by Red and are more likely to see it as Green.(Source)

So overall, if Blake's sight is "like a human but with more rods", that means:

>She could see things with as much detail as we do.

>She could tell the colors just as well as we do.

>Dark areas would look more bright to her.

>She would still be able to tell the colors quite well in said dark areas.

13-1) But that would mean that Sun left Ghira, whose Aura had dropped to 0, alone with the 2 guys who he just saw were capable of making a real firestorm. And that he knew were there to kill Ghira.

13-2) Why help Blake stand up? I was thinking more of him grabbing her, jumping back to Ghira and leaving her there, then going after Ilia. Better than leaving her lying there an easy target for either Ilia or the Albains.

But nooo, he goes straight for Ilia, she was the first thought in his mind.

15 & 18) Everything is stupid in Menagerie. The people, the guards, the protagonists, the White Fang, their weapons.



16) No, no. She did pull him hard enough to lift him off the ground. Rewatch the scene, in slow-mo. And in fact, if she didn't lift him and he instead slid on the ground, it makes things even worse.

Because then that means the floor would've put resistence that opposes his movement. Made worse by his own weight. Which means that Blake would've had to pull him even harder to pull him with the same amount of speed as she did in the episode.

The only real explanation I can think of is that Ghira jumped back when Blake pulled him, which explains everything. But it didn't look that way to me at all.

17) Apparently. If so, it's the 2nd time I misheard something he said. Assuming he really didn't call Ilia "Cecilia" back in V5E5.

19) That looks wrong in too many levels.
