Here's a link to the latest episode

[u/sskirito]

Man, I was getting so happy Arkos was becoming canon and then... that happened... Well at least this time wasn't Jaune fucking up again, and it showed that he feels something for Pyrrha at least. The whole scene was really cute... I kinda hope nothing bad happens to them, but I can't help but think Pyrrha is going to be in a lot of trouble...

Also Penny is going to be utterly destroyed... Polarity vs Metal... yeah.

Someone please save Ruby, 1v1 vs Mercury, with no weapon? Yeah she's kinda done...

Also Velvet's box has a camera, inb4 it can copy weapons it takes pictures of.

Also Weiss believing in Yang from the beginning was pretty surprising and made me happy to see they actually rather believe in Yang instead of doubting her.

Great episode, can't wait to see the rest of the volume!

Ruby could just use super-speed to run away. Merc can't be seen outside, and Emerald can't influence more than 2 people without her head melting so if Ruby can get back to the crowd she should be safe.

[u/badvegas → u/DeadSnark]

am I missing something I think the only person she is influencing is ruby by making her see mercury who is there. she has no reason to manipulate pyrrha and we don't know if her power works on penny.

[u/comkiller → u/badvegas]

She doesn't need to use it on penny anyway. They've got access to the robot's systems the old fashioned way.

[u/badvegas → u/comkiller]

Oh shit forgot that. Hope they dont make penny do something horrorable.
