User blog:Zathronas/Analysis by an author: Volume 2 episode 4 Painting the town...

Hello and welcome to author analysis

A new episode is upon us and it's an action packed one. So let's deconstruct episode 4 of volume 2: Painting the town...

We start where we left off with Ruby and Penny in the alley. Seems Penny has an aura, how did they managed that? That is a disturbing revelation, could they add an aura to a mech for example? Ruby shows her greatest talent here, her ability to accept anyone without judging. Here's another question, could Ironwood have added something more sinister in Penny?

Yang and Neptune arrives at Hei Xiong's (Junior) place. I might be wrong but I think they remembered her there. As Neptune says, what a woman!

Cue Blake and Sun reaching a White Fang recruitment meeting. A nice tidbit right from the start, The grimm mask and the white fang creator being kinda dark. Will we see him at a later date? these last two episodes seems to set up a lot for future episodes.

Roman's speech is interesting, the common enemy part especially. The people in command and more specifically Government, Military and the schools. I'm starting to think Beacon could be a target :)

Now the mech raises several questions. A brand new piece of tech and they stole a few of them easy as pie? I smell bull here, they have an inside man there. Apparently they moved their operation to the south east... remember the card game map? From what I see here, the agreement between the white fang and Cinder's gang seems to be an exchange. Giving manpower for Cinder and weapons for the fang. The enemies seems to be gathering.

Junior doesn't know much. I believe the yellow trailer has shut him out of Cinder's plan when she saw how ineffectual junior's men are against a little girl. Dead end... Or is it? Why show it at all if there was nothing there. A future ally maybe?

RWBY versus the Paladin A new character, what a surprise. I heard Neo was her name, I might be wrong here. Powers to create an illusion or an image. need more info on that. Her unbrella seems to be her weapon.
 * 1) RWBY is a well oiled machine by now with Ruby giving the name of moves and the others executing them.
 * 2) Sun and his "light clones" seems interesting, doesn't help much here but meh.
 * 3) Ruby is getting powerful as hell and that's her first year!
 * 4) Yang... Holy Sh**! When you know her semblance, you understand her confidence and also her weakness. it also explain how she fell through the roof and laughed it out.

HEY! Weiss pun wasn't that bad. It was Schwarzenegger worthy at least!

So that's it for now! I gotta go. I suddenly feel like ramen for lunch. See you Saturday for speculative author and the first subject proposed by a reader!
