I agree, she looked like she was just flailing her sword around randomly during that sequence.

In fact, I had a lot of issues with that fight scene; the Grimm and airship were great. The people? Not so much. The pilot pushed the throttle forward  to full blast three times. Their faces were somewhat slack outside weiss's very exaggerated concentration, relief and surprise, and their actions themselves were smooth and almost languid, which is completely at odds with the tension that was supposed to be in the scene.

They went for smooth and fluid animation in a scene where snappy sharp movements would have better set the tone of the fight. They made Weiss flail like an idiot in her 'big moment', and even a few of the poses she makes looks extremely awkward to actually perform (such as this one). Like, what is she even doing with her hand?

It was a great fight story, power and events wise. It was too much uncanny valley to watch for me, though.
