-You know that they even pointed the foreshadowing in your face that episode.

The first thing Ozpin actually said to uby and so on.

-What I could not get over that the stuff looks like wings coming out of the eyes, which looks stupid. -The "you got silver eyes" part? That's not foreshadowing, especially since it went without any importance for 2.90 Volumes, plus it could have meant many things, like Ozpin recognizing Ruby as Summer's daughter through the eye color.

But, the one thing it never implied was that Ruby was a descendant of an ancient order of ultra-powerful ultra-rare warriors that can KO even the strongest Grimm and a Maiden in a flash without lifting a finger.

In fact, there was never any indication that Ruby could do that kind of shit. None at all. We knew the "silver eyes" had at least some sort of importance, but it was never even implied that Ruby had those powers. So no, there was no real, good foreshadowing.

-I agree. I actually thought they were "crocodile tears" at first.

You have to keep the anime aspect in mind.

Also as said it is basically the first thing on of the most knowledgable characters n the show has first mentioned about the MC the show is even named after.

After that we saw how basically any over powered ability showed something on the eyes.

Yang releasing her overpowerd semblance, Cinder using her fire, Amber and Cinder using the fall maidens power all were shown to cause a reaction on the eyes. You seriously did not think Ozpin of all people mentioning Ruby eyes meant something.

Hell they even talked with Pyrrha about how some legends had some truth in them, did you seriously think it would remain with only the four maiden legend having some truth to it.

Besides that did you forget how overpowered Ruby's speed is. The vortex Ruby created in the food fight was strong enough to overcome Pyrrha's control and force on the cans and send the entire team JNPR flying all that while being 2 years younger than the others and especially someone like Pyrrha.
