... I'm sorry, I'm just too much of a True Believer to interpret that as anything other than a reference to Natalia Romanova, or perhaps Yelena Belova. That was an interesting (if ultimately unproductive) mental image.

Second semester, as expected, though I'm more interested in the exchange students, simply so we can see how things vary among schools and nations. Definitely feels rather Triwizard, though. Admittedly, that's hard to avoid, considering the basic elements, but still.

Speaking of the second semester (but not, alas of the production diary), and the concomitant break, I, being the worldbuilding type, am interested in what holidays exist in Remnant. Also, what did our intrepid band do over said break? Where did Blake go? I can't imagine Ruby not at least attempting to invite her to winter at the Rose/Xiao Long/Whatever residence (in the classic "Freshman invites roommate home for break, awkward times had by all" way). More White Fang attacks on SDC, perhaps? Jaune faced with academic probation this semester, depending on his grades?

I kinda wanted to hear the other voices Kara considered for Weiss. That's me focusing on completely unimportant production/background stuff, though.

I have mixed feelings on the lack of silhouettes, since they did give the show a particular flavor, almost storybook-like, but that's a discussion for the appropriate thread.
