I must say, this is the very first episode that I was actually afraid for Ruby. RT established some actual tension, and it was effective. Here we have a Ruby without her weapon, and caught off guard. Something tells me that Merc won't be taking any prisoners, so there is a real danger for Ruby here. Sure, she has the main character title to protect her for now, but in that moment I didn't think of that. I thought, "Oh no Ruby. Kick his bu-- No weapon? Oh Lord. No way to call for help?  Oh goodness. RUN". That was my favorite moment of the episode really. I'm sure she'll escape, but unharmed? I'm not sure. She'll definitely leave after it's too late to warn anyone about the P-money vs. P=magnets situation.

Which brings me to another point: P-money. I'm geniunely concerned for her fight. For her in general. Here we are, given a character who was initially deemed unbeatable, and we see her in an unbeatable situation. I'm not just talking about the battelfield either.

This was a good episode. We were able to become more invested in our characters through this tough time. The little bits of information here and there helped as well. Of course, I am happy that it looks like Ruby is going to get the spot light pretty soon. Ggggguuuuhhh. When your favorite character is the main character, but everyone else gets attention, it's a bit annoying guuuuuuuuuuuhhh.

The humor was enjoyable too! Also, was anyone else pleasantly surprised by the way Weiss defended Yang? For me, that was one of the highlights of this episode. S/O to Jaune for trying to help. Pyrrha dropping her candy cane in shock when he took her hand was so precious to me. There were a lot of things I liked about this episode.

Also, another great job, WC-83!

I am excited for next week!
