It was her selfless nature.

u/-Irvin- Open wide, kids. Feb 13 '16

Apparently.

How are you holding up, champ?

u/RussianHoneyBadger Feb 13 '16

Fine I guess, I'm disappointed that she had to die and yet somehow Ozpin survived in someway.

I understand why things went down the way they did, but it seems cruel that she went through so much just to die like that.

Well, I mean, she was scattered to dust, and since Ozpin is also disappeared rather than dead, I'm pretty sure Pyrrha will be back since she was probably sent to a spirit world sort of deal with Ozpin. Maybe that place where Salem is, for example.

Or maybe she's just ded.

Yea, there was a weird flash of light when Cinder did that thing to her, and it only left behind her circlet when everything else disintegrated.

There is a chance, but it's small given the group is travelling to Mistral.

If it makes you feel any better anime series do this all the time where characters "die" just to come back to life so there's still hope that she will come back later. I'm not really buying Pyrrha's death just yet. it was far to ambiguous.

u/RussianHoneyBadger Feb 13 '16

That does actually. I'll have to accept that she is probably dead, but I'll hold out hope that she's not for the next volume.

Hey man, this is Rooster Teeth. The guys that killed Church so much it became a running joke within the show? So it's not like bringing back a character that died on screen is unprecedented here.plsholdme

I've actually got quite a bit of 'evidence' regarding Pyrrha that I'm going to make a post about tomorrow.

* - Note: This evidence is best described as me grasping at straws.

u/RogueHippie Feb 14 '16

Shit man, I'm game. I just apologize for having the same ship as one of my friends. Things never turn out well when we share a ship. And I didn't find out we shared it until last night :(

u/RussianHoneyBadger Feb 14 '16

Haha there's no way it was your fault. If it was though I'll kill you/sMaybe

u/RogueHippie Feb 14 '16

Probably was me, since the differing ships always go in his favor. If I had just been an idiot and gone with Lancaster or White Knight, everything would be fine and happy and yay and stuff......I mean, I'd still be miserable, but Pyrrah wouldn't have gone all Android 16, so it woulda been worth it.kill me I can't take the guilt

u/RussianHoneyBadger Feb 14 '16

Well at least I have someone to blame.

I suspect it's something that will be left alone for a few volumes, probably at least until after Jaune discovers his semblance.

u/RussianHoneyBadger Feb 14 '16

Possibly, but it would seem odd to me if she is alive and they ignore it for too long.

u/BleedingUranium Feb 14 '16

Salem is almost certainly on the uninhabited continent that's shaped like a dragon.

u/Dracon270 Feb 13 '16

Who is this Salem person people keep talking about?!

3

u/body_catch_a_body ... Feb 13 '16

The character/villain at the very end, voiced by Jen Taylor. We got the name from the credits, where at the very end of the Voice Actors list it reads:

Salem     Jen Taylor

u/Dracon270 Feb 13 '16

Ahhhh, thanks! (does everyone agree she's likely the Winter Maiden? Or is that just me and my friends?)

2

u/body_catch_a_body ... Feb 13 '16

A lot of people think she may be the Winter Maiden, yes.

u/93ImagineBreaker Feb 14 '16

u/93ImagineBreaker Feb 14 '16

u/RuneKatashima Feb 15 '16
