    I just realized that the cat is pissed at Jaune because Jaune kept giving himself a new purpose (and therefore couldn’t be taken over).

    I'm pretty sure...the comment on Roman's voice is a big sign of how little you know about the goings on with RWBY. He legit left because he abused his position as head of the animation department and was embezzling funds from other RT productions to try and push Gen:Lock ahead. He legit lead to the cancellation of Nomad of Nowhere and RWBY Chibi, and why Volumes 4-5 felt abit off. Billy Kametz was stated to be the new voice of Roman when Ice Queendom got a dub but he has sadly passed away from cancer and they got another VA to cover Roman across everything now. (In fact after that Cinder and Neo picture there was memorial message for Billy Kametz but ya paused before it was done)

      @@KingMufasa_8 I don't (fully) blame them for being confused about the teacup. 💁‍♂️However, *My minimum expectations* was that they'd did *_Not try to bring Ruby to their proximity._*
      Examples:
      Weiss _(Before Sinkhole)_ could've used her Glyphs to move her towards them, or (Arriving Sinkhole) even make a platform to block the hole.
      Jaune could've pushed Ruby aways via Gravity-Dust. Yes, ANOTHER sinkhole woulda opened on Ruby, but it would've been some kind of action.
      Jaune may still be upset, but he heard Weiss' words & and knows Ruby is acting concernedly off. His maturity and/albeit from feara & trauma could've mmmMaybe make him be the 1st to act.
      Weiss, being the one who picked up on Ruby's venting keywords - the least upset towards her - should've been the more/other proactive person to jump in to Save her.
      Yang & Blake had the less-versatile tools (lest maybe Yang used explosive shells to either shoot the cup Or knock her sister away).
      To answer your question in short: Yeah, Why not....or even to stop said-Ruby with dead, hopeless eyes and wounded body from drinking a suspiciously given teacup.
      It's the same as it ever was with "This Character could've used their powers [like this] or [at this point]."
      It's NOT AS BAD as Volume 5 or Volume 8....😊just pointing out how momentum & drama could've been kept WITHOUT making the characters dumbfounded and standing still.

    • @GraveDigger35
      @GraveDigger35 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Three things.
      1. For all they knew, it was a trap neo set up, they didn't know it truly was her until she looked them dead in the face with a "I'm sorry for doing this" look, and vise versa for Ruby, likely thought her team and Jaune showing up were just more clones come to kick her further down into drinking the tea
      2. This likely played out faster from their POV, like they ran up to her as she's drinking the tea unable to stop her, it just seemed slow to us for the shock factor and so they can have Roman's final jab at Ruby
      3. If you watch Yang after Ruby falls, other than looking around as the mansion starts crumbling, she's just staring at the spot mentally checked out, and likely would've fallen to her knees if Blake wasn't supporting her, and as the cat blasts them with Thunderbolt, Blake steps in front of Yang to take most of the hit for her
