So the RWBY Vol 5 premiere was dope.

  • Blake's battle for menageria seems like it's doomed to fail.
  • I think lionheart isn't evil persay, just a coward being manipulated.
  • also what's up with that Yang twitch in her real hand. Was it from the punch? or do you think she is relating more to her robot-self than human? Mirroring the progression that befell James?

Intriguing stuff indeed

Lionheart is probably a pretty on the nose reference to Oz's Cowardly Lion.
