Chishikunrin: I quote Oobleck "He's not wrong..." Yes Neptune likely alludes to the Roman Sea God Neptune, Its likely that RT named Neptune "Neptune" instead of Sha Wujing for the color reference (because the Sha in Sha Wujing means Sand and does not imply blue).

However they are still both sea gods and it is generally accepted thet Team SSSN alludes to Journey To the West characters. If Neptune is Poseidon then where does he fit in with Sun Wukong? What will Team SSSN's theme be? Possibly gods and demigods from various cultures, in which case Scarlet=Ne Zha still fits as a Chinese Demigod.

Also since the topic has been brought up, another point that can strenghten my theory about Scarlet=Ne Zha is part of the legend recounting Ne Zha's childhood exploits. He defied The Sea Dragon Emperor himself and invaded his palace. Couple that with The Sun Wukong part of the legend and NeZha has interacted with 2 characters who allude to Team SSSN, therefore strengthening the likelihood of Ne Zha being referenced for another Team SSSN Character.

LiveandSound: I dont really see much resemblence other than their clothing colors, Monty has been known to reference other anime and games for RWBY characters. So although its a long shot, your theory may be right.
