Things are just getting more intense. I like the theory that while Phyra doesn't have the power she may have some Maiden abilities. After what happened with Penny she may even be happy if her semblence had been altered to elemental manipulation instead of polarity.

I don't think Velvet copies abilities and skills, just the weapons. Aside from that, given how often Coco tells Velvet to not use her weapon she must burn through the picture used to make the weapons very fast, or something along those lines. Also it's a good allusion to the story of the Velvatine Rabbit. Just as a toy Rabbit was made into a real Rabbit, Velvet turns photos of weapons into real weapons.

I really like how Weiss summoned without even trying, and that it happened naturally for her when all she was thinking about was saving a friend. Also for some people they can't do specific things when they are actively trying but it comes to them naturally when they do it without really thinking about it.

I don't know what to feel about Torchwick, he was only suppose to be in the very first episode only, but Roosterteeth listens to, and is inspired by, the response from their fanbase (Monty created Neo after seeing a genderbent cosplay of Torchwick). They could have Torchwick survive, or because Monty didn't have any more plans for Torchwick Roosterteeth could have killed him off to tie up a loose end in the plot outline Monty had mostly outlined before he passed. Given how Roosterteeth operates we won't know until RT officially tells us or shows Roman to still be alive. If they do I hope it will be like the after credit scene from "Pacific Rim."

A Griffon suddenly has its side blasted out from the inside. As it dissolves Roman Torchwick steps out of the hole and notices he's missing his hat. Roman: "Where is my God Dam Hat!"

Another scene that I would eventually like to see but is very unlikely to happen this Volume is for Ruby to use one of Penny's swords to go Marcus Felix on Cinder.

Ruby stabs Cinder through the chest with one of Penny's swords. She stares into Cinder's eyes as she begins to gasp. Ruby: "You feel that? That's from Penny, and everyone else you killed you Bitch!"

Or something along those line, I know it would be out of Character for Ruby to swear.
