RWBY Discussion thread 2

So Hazel is just a dumb berserker with a dumb reason to fight. What a waste.

And the likelihood Ravens death grows stronger and stronger each episode.
 
@Jinx

I can hit someone's head from a blind spot but that doesn't mean they'll go flying ten feet back if I'm weaker than them.

Oscar has repeatedly shown himself to be able to at least inconvenience Hazel when Nora and Ren could not without their semblances.

Adam getting knocked over is PIS since Blake hasn't shown herself to be training much at all since the timeskip and yet she's suddenly able to casually dodge an attack from someone who previously blitzed her.

Stop trying to manipulate perceptions to fit your own.
 
Hazel was getting stunned getting hit by Oscar's cane, which is 7-B as a weapon itself, but that shouldn't be the case if Hazel Can't Feel Pain, so pretty sure its PIS in itself. Someone who can't feel pain shouldn't flinch or cease attack.

Tyrian got knocked back in the RNJR fight, but they dont scale to him do they? Seriously, knocking people back/down means shit when you all call Adam getting tossed an outlier. Ozpin is a trained Huntsmen and has techniques, reactions, speed and finesse to knock him.

If you wanna knock hazel back and get credit, check out Nora smashing him though the building.

Its an argument because Oscar is literally the weakest in the posse, to suddenly surpassing anyone. Suddenly, that's not the outlier!
 
It's entirely possible that Ozpin is telling half truths about Hazel's sister. Not sure yet, if this is the actual reason I'll be dissapointed, but I don't think it is. And I'm pretty sure Cinder survived her fall (heh) and might be back in next week's episode.
 
I actually dont recall Tyrian ever being harmed by RNJR except by Ruby at the very end. And saying that happened because Ozpins weapon is 7-B is nonsense. The weapon doesnt all of a sudden convert 8-A attacks to 7-B. Where do you think the power to affect Hazel was coming from, Oscar is the one weilding the weapon.

The blind spot was when he was knocked down and had to kneel.

Oscar wasn't the thing inconveniencing him though now was it? It was Ozpin controlling him and finessing with his 7-A skill. Hoenstly, Oscar has 2 souls that he swaps on the fly, so perhaps he does get stronger since he's swapping into Ozpins aura. But hey, that's just a theory. Hazel beat Oscar anyway to the point he was on the floor. Its PIS at most

Oscar hasnt been training much either, less than a few weeks at most, and at least Blake has been fighting, so she isnt completely rusty.

Stop ending your responses with trying-to-sound-smart comments-that-arent-the-case like that then.
 
Raven isn't dying this volume I'm sure of it especially after this chapter.

(Unless you think Yang's going to kill her)

In fact I found it decrease for me, the only way Raven is dying now is if Salem pops out and just recks everyone.

Cinder has nothing left she's forzen in the bottom of the vault planning her escape/revenge. Watts is muttering to himself that he's right, Tyrian's probably still stabbing that Beowolf and Hazel...

Do you have proof that what Ozpin said is the end of Hazel's story or are you just keeping expectations low so that if you are surprised that it's a positive one.

(If so then that's not a bad idea Aizen)
 
Yeah like I said earlier, based on how shady Ozpin has been, I'm pretty sure what he said about Hazel's sister is a half truth. If she was killed by Grimm, it makes no sense to ally with the master of Grimm. I'm basically convinced Ozpin had directly something to do with it, possibly even grooming her to be a maiden and it going wrong.

Tyrian got smacked back into a building, not like it mattered, but he got 'pushed back' so...

Weird, this wiki has Qrows weapon page and Crescent rose as 7-B despite weapons depending on the wielder. I thought that was the ideology Pfft

The power 'affecting but not at all harming him' was coming from the character who trained for about a few weeks, after only just unlocking an aura. Either Ozpin gets stronger when he takes over (he does take over as his soul, and of course aura is a manifestation of the soul,so aura would change when swapping round) or its just PIS how the weakest character was slightly moving one of Salems best, and arguably physically strongest without-poison-and-maiden-powers.

Either way, Oscar is the legit new Jaune of this volume and now him suddenly surpassing everybody, even though Ozpin was the only way they would win, and even then Ozpin Oscar lost easily, and took a casual shot from Lionheart to the point it really used up his aura.
 
Then delete them Weekly -_- funny how you only add irrelevant things but can't actually counter any of my points

I'll pfft all I want, quit changing the subject. Its what I do when I find something ridiculous such as the new Jaune surpassing someone 7-B thats basically a raid boss, all because he knocked him back a little (when that makes 0 sense if his Semblance is to nullify pain) and then immediately got bodied and had to be saved. While having his body controlled by someone with superior aura, intelligence, reactions, fighting skill etc, meanwhile that's considered outlier with Blake pushing down Adam even though she actually fought things.

I doubt Hazel was going full strength anyway at this point, since he did understand it was merely a kid being manipulated by Ozpin. He got much angrier and brute like when Ozpin was actually taking control.
 
@Jinx

I've already pointed out to you time and again that Oscar's aura wasn't drained. There's a distinct sound effect that did not play when Oscar got hit. You repeating your blatant lie over and over again is not going to make it more true.

There is still no indication that Oscar gets stronger when Oz takes over. Oz is simply more skilled and has better motor control. If Ozpin could simply take over and strengthen Oscar's body to the point that it would be a worthwhile threat, there would not have been a need for Oscar to train. You still have not addressed this and every time someone calls you out on this logic you just brush it off and say that it's stupid that someone who is explicitly stated to be growing exponentially faster than normal due to Ozpin's aura and muscle memory can keep up with two professional Huntsman-level fighters.

You have provided literally nothing but repeat the same tired phrases ad nauseam while being disrespectful to everyone here.

There isn't a distinct sound mate. There was a sound effect, the same fizzing as Qrow and Tyruan, it changes and differs and isn't consistent. The only thing consistent is how the body flashes when aura is depleted. Stop using that sound bs when it's always different AND there was a sound.

Addressed what? I bleeding know Ozpin doesn't make him stornger, but in every other category he does get buffed. Someone with legit skill can beat someone stronger. Its like how Ozpin Oscar beat Ruby while Ruby beat normal Oscar. I know this! I'm not denying it, even though there is logic in assuming that, since Oscar has both souls, and Aura is a manifestation of the soul. But yeah, I'm not denying that. Its the same reason Master Roshi can beat Ganos.

'rapid rate' is vague af, this wiki brushes off those vague statements usually, and there's no way Oscar is now at Ozpins level of strength. Oscar was going to die if Ozpin didn't take over,even though Oscar legit lost to Hazel even ith Ozpin, as shown. And Nora has to send him flying. Unless you think Oscar is now Ozpins level already. There's no confirmation on Oscar inheriting the muscle memory fully yet, nor is there confirmation Hazel was actually being affected by Oscar at all, since we can't say he was getting hurt. Oh, AND HE GOT BEAT DOWN.

Get over it, debates get like this, especially when I'm forced to repeat it. Everyone's shut up about Lionheart cause he isn't 7-B physically, at all, thank god, thoughI don't intend to be disrespectful. Only smug :). Not like I'm not getting disrespect back anyway. All weekly is doing now is refusing to actually argue and instead bring up irrelevant stuff.

You people need to chill with giving whoever 'knocks back', but then gets bodied, upgrades that make them surpass all the more relevant characters, even though we don't actually know if it affected Hazel at all. Oscar is still the weakest of the bunch!
 
Hey, is there any way to calc that clash when Cinder and Raven brought out the big swords? They were pretty far down and it was visibly felt by the characters up top. It might not end up being higher ap but you never know.

It wouldnt be anywhere near their current tier
 
Yeah I have no clue how high earthquakes energies are anyways. It looked like they were really far down though, when we got a shot of the ceiling of the cavern.
 
Oh yeah...Blake was also revealed as DLC for BBCTB. Which sucks that half the roster is gonna be DLC. Hopefully its affordable or even free!

I made out Yang in the silohuettes too on the left, but ofc she's coming. I also thought I saw Mercury in a kicking position,but that can be anyone honestly. Hopefully its him
 
P-trans (1)
i tried last week, but it was only a simple remove background, cause I can't use my tablet for shit, but felt it was too fuzzy, and I wanted dust hazel
 
Reppuzan had apparently already done it... thought that was mine for a second but I checked. We both uploaded Hazel pictures at similar times.

When it comes to Rwby ill keep my expectations as low as possible, yes. Raven being the maiden was a nice twist I didn't see coming I admit.

I think Cinder will kill her. Probably in this volume aswell. With Yang now with Raven it falls perfectly in line with what I said a week or two ago about Raven, that she will die with a last farewell to yang.

Hazel just seems so barebones, so generic, that I see no further depth to his character (he god damn reminds me of Obito, YOU LET RIN DIE. so maybe it's PTSD but I do think hes really just that bad a character)

Oh Also the maiden b4 raven was probably Rubys mother. I forgot her name or if she even had one.
