      I think Jaune will be the one who ultimately kills Cinder, but I think he'll go through a volume or two where we see him wrestling with himself over Penny's death. His inspiration-and namesake, Joan of Arc-is famously quoted as having said her sword would never shed the blood of an innocent.
      Immediately after killing Penny, his sword is broken. If that's not intentional symbolism, I don't know what is.

  • @bangscutter
    @bangscutter 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    My Wonderland theory is that the 6 of them (plus any surviving random people who got thrown off by Cinder), take on new character forms in the magical place, and lose their original memories. But somehow, they will feel out of place and something not quite right. Eventually something will jolt their memory back, like finding their weapons from their previous life. That is when they realise they don't belong there, and need to find their way back home. Time will flow at a different rate in that magical place. It's entirely possible those 6 may live out entire lifetimes there, but only a short time passed in Remnant. When they return back to Remnant, they will revert back to their youthful forms, but retain a lifetime of experience, hence changing them.
    How do they make it back? It will be through the vaults but from the other side. They will figure out that the other world is connected to the vaults, and so make their way to the sword of destruction. Then they enter Shade academy from the other side of the vault door. They may even use the sword's power to force their way in, since they don't have the summer maiden to open the door.

    Jaune sent Nora through the portal to get Huntsmen to come back, not knowing the Vacuo portal was one-way only.
    Still in the wreck of Atlas, we have: Qrow, Robin, Hare, Elm, Marrow, and Ironwood and Watts - maybe. Ironwood and Watts were in Atlas when it crashed, and then flooded, so they could be dead, but I wouldn't bet on it.
    In "Neverland", Yang, Ruby, Blake, Wiess, Neo, Jaune, and a bunch of random citizens.
    In Vacuo, Oscar, Nora, Emerald, Ren, Winter, Willow, Witney, Kline, and most of the citizens, I guess. There were two cities worth of people to evacuate in a few short minutes. I really don't see more than a thousand or so making it through, so a lot would have been left behind. Mostly military and huntsmen I would guess. I figure even if team FUNKI survived the battle, they are dead now.

    And hearing again to the name of the story that Oscar was telling Oz "The Girl who fell through the World" hints at this. Like maybe a Maiden accidentally fell into this inky blackness, not knowing that it kind of acts like a teleporter, and wind up on one of these continents and probably met the God Bros. That may explain the "change" that the girl went through, she met the Creators.

  • @Xardion55
    @Xardion55 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    -Chapter 14: The Final Word
    After Volume 3, one would think that you’d be prepared for anything that happens, and for the most part, that was true. There were few scenes in the continuing volumes that start to crack my shell, but I was able to tolerate it and think, ‘I can deal with this.’
    And then this chapter happened…
    RWBY quote of the chapter
    _“And that’s checkmate.” (Cinder)_

    -Winter vs Ironwood
    It is interesting to hear how when Winter was talking to Ironwood, she spoke mainly about how Mantle was affected in this exchange. She had already declared in the previous chapter that she will always stand up against the people of Atlas and with her words here, she fights for them as one and the same. And her other line bring up much how some villains behave (like _Thanos),_ that they will sacrifice anyone and anything to reach their goal, _except themselves._ A true hero are the ones who would put their lives _first_ for the sake of others. It would seem that Ironwood’s true enemy wasn’t just the Grimm, Salem or his fear.
    It was his ego.

    -Belatedly Friendship
    Did Clover’s medal helped Qrow’s semblance? From the looks of it, it seems as though with it, he was able to use it to reverse his own semblance through concentration. Does this mean he can actually control his semblance now? And can he be able to use it back and forth now? That would be a plus.
    The Ace-Ops finally showing their true feelings to each other, with Elm convincing Harriet to step down from her actions, only too late that the bomb was armed (partially thanks to Watts), and then for Vine to follow suit, sacrificing himself to save his friends (like _Spock_ in the _Star Trek II)._

    -Triumph of the Fall Usurper
    You know when things were going into _Infinity War_ level of foreboding when everyone is losing their weapons (although it is cool to see Weiss wielding both Myrtenaster _and_ Gambol Shroud), especially Crescent Rose and Crocea Mors (damaged).
    Congratulations Cinder, for reestablishing the #1 spot as the most hated person in RWBY. With the knowledge she had obtained from Jinn and with aid from Neo and Watts, she managed to obtain both the Relics, mortally wound Penny, and send all of team RWBY into the void. And to cover her tracks, she disposed of both Neo and Watts once she was done with them. She managed to get almost everything she wanted. The only thing she didn’t get was the Winter Maiden’s power. Even still, she pretty much ended the lives of the main protagonists.
    Or at least, that’s what she thinks…

    -Sacrifice of the Winter Maiden
    …I need a moment…
    (keeping it together…)
    It was really a worry that Penny becoming human would make her vulnerable to injury and Cinder made it a reality, capitalizing on that weakness with the same attack she used on Vernal. Not only that, but realizing that she wouldn’t make it, she had Jaune to help kill herself in order to pass the power on to Winter. Whether Jaune carried out the act himself or Penny simply took his sword to do it herself, Jaune will become really messed up when this is over. Sadly enough, Penny’s words to him mirror the same ones that Pyrrha said to him before they died (and both by Cinder’s hands).
    _“There’s not enough time.” (Penny)_
    _“There’s no time.” (Pyrrha)_
    On a lighter (yet somber) note, Penny chose to use her final moments of life to help someone else rather than being unknowingly used as a pawn in her first death. What was really heartwarming/heart-striking was their conversation, which goes back to two of their earlier conversations in the previous volume, which for many, showed that Penny, a robotic girl, acted more human than Winter, a woman who acted like a machine.
    But Penny never really believed that and Ren saw it himself when seeing her emotions through his semblance how conflicted she was, that she was holding in more emotions inside. So Penny’s last words, as well as the fact that Winter was the one chosen to be in Penny’s last memory, telling Winter that she was her friend, was something that will likely let Winter be free from her previous persona, as Penny entrusted her with the Maiden powers, and in some way, trusting her also to be the next protector of Mantle, as that was her previous title. And with Ironwood’s decline, she would become the de-facto leader of Atlas.
    _“Do you believe in destiny?” (Pyrrha)_
    It also shows that she is free from the destiny that Ironwood envisioned in her (although she had already repurposed it in the earlier volume as her own). What became her destiny given to her by Ironwood became a gift given to her from Penny. Because when Penny became the Winter Maiden, Winter probably believed that her destiny was gone. But it was Penny would fulfilled it for her as a gift, thus no longer bonding her to Ironwood’s idea
    So Weiss isn’t Elsa; Winter is…
    With Weiss’ fall, Cinder has two Maidens she has to contend with that. Now only that, but Winter was already formidable on her own right. As strong as Penny was, Winter is more a battle-hardened Huntress/soldier. Her with Maiden powers will be something Cinder will have problems with. Add to that, Winter vowed to make sure Cinder pays for what she done, and she has to power to do it. One thing is for sure though…
    The Grimm facing her now at Vacuo are about to be wrecked…

    -The Fall of Atlas/Mantle
    I was a bit confused at first about when did Cinder use the staff to trap Watts into a fire, but then I remembered that in using the Relic, time is frozen and Cinder wouldn’t need too much of a plan to for Ambrosius to work with in order to get what she wanted.
    It is likely that Salem knows that Cinder is lying about many of her actions, but she doesn’t care since she has two of the Relics now and Atlas has been destroyed. And Salem was deceiving Cinder as well, bringing up her line of creating a ‘new world order’. To bring it up to Cinder means that Cinder doesn’t really know what Salem’s real endgame is.
    Rule of Two…
    This also shows Ironwood’s complete defeat, that he had no power to do anything now. And the way Salem and Cinder were walking away from him confirmed that. As far as they are concerned, Ironwood is beneath their notice now, and he knows that. In a small way, this is a bit of revenge for Cinder as well, destroying the world that he had suffered under as a youth.
    To summarize, Atlas/Mantle is gone and underwater, Qrow, Robyn, and the rest of the Ace-Ops are left to see it (with Qrow unable to contact what had happened to Ruby or the others), the survivors of Atlas/Mantle are now at Vacuo with Winter as the Winter Maiden, Penny is dead (likely Ironwood and Watts as well), and team RWBY, Jaune and Neo have disappeared into the void

    -End-credit Thoughts/Theory
    So they are all potentially still alive. After all, the RWBY standard is typically, no body, no death. Now comes the question; where are they? Wonderland? Yggdrasil (The World Tree)? The afterlife? There are thoughts to mull about.
    If it turns out that they are in some sort of afterlife, that will definitely be a thing. Would they encounter anyone? Will Neo encounter Torchwick? Will Weiss see her grandfather? Will Blake have to confront Adam? Will Ruby and Yang see Summer (which would confirm her death)? Will Jaune see Pyrrha? How will they be able to get out of there? When that happens, will time have changed?
    Thus ends Volume 8…
    A session of RWBY Chibi is definitely in order…
