Side note: This is a really wierd time to kill of Weiss. I mean yeah, it's the finale and idelly you want it to have teeth, but killing off one of your best written and developed (not to mention titular) characters just as you're starting to really show us what she's capable of is... A bad idea. I'm gueesing that she'll survive, and since Winter is still in Mistral as far as we know, Big Sister Schnee will be joining the fray and will not be pleased at all with her sister taking a spear to the liver Winter is in atlas, if Vernal lied (which I don0t think she did), and she is in Mistral and Qrow etc didn't ask for help, then, I am rooting for the villains, because the good guys are waay too stupid. It's annoying enough that Oobleck, Glynda, Tai etc, none of them are fighting when they should be more capable than their students, not to mention, Vale's hunstmen aren't dead as far as we know. Especially Tai who has 2 of his daughters fighting.

And no, I don't think Weiss is dead. She's one of the protagonists thefore plot armor. Also you can live without part of your liver. Ren and Nora would be the most likely not to have plot armor, but they are fighting Hazel, who seems like he won't go for the kill when he can go for incapacitation. The other one is Qrow, but he's the one who knows the most (except for Opzin) and the only adult/professional hunstmen.It doesn't seem like his time has come, but I don't believe most villains will die either, not now. In fact, I can actually see all of the villains surviving but only needing to retreat.

Also, am I the only one who finds it weird that a Faunus is the leader of an Academy in Mistral? You know, the kingdom which is also known not to e great with Faunus...
