I'm not disappointed at all tbh..

He was always in control of situation and always have some sort of advantage here everything he got was slowly taken away from him and he charge like enraged Bull ( His faunus trait :P ) but once he was a litle more collected and choose to run away ( what would be the point of him fighting against Blake/Sun/Ilia/Police/Ghira and Huntsman that was on the way there's no way he would win that ) and Blake aknowledge that even in duo with Sun they can't take him down << So I look forward to Yang and Blake vs Him..
As for Adam bringing only 10/12 people, it's an effect of Cinder altering original plans Adam couldn't attack with full force until Cinder will end with her goals so he brings small party to set up bombs ( Bombs probably would be the signal for the Army Ilia spoke about in Chapter 14 )
The problem for me is that the way he does this is done poorly. He is calm and collected at parts but at other times, it turns way over into his head. We see him progress as a dangerous character bent on destroying Blake's life. That was to create conflict in vol 3 but it seemed out of place in later volumes, especially when the conflict is blaming on Adam's side entirely without knowing why he is like that today.

Though, I am glad he ran away instead of being arrested. But I do wonder how the writers will delve into his character because Blake's arc is "almost" done. (Almost meaning that there could be only one route they will take, and Adam would be in it)

He was calm and collected at parts when he had a clear advantage.

Against Blake, in Vol.3 she was afraid of him ( She still is but she wasn't alone this time " I can't.. not by myself " )
Against Yang, he had Blake as Hostage and his Semblance was charged earlier by Blake

Here any type of advantage he was having was taken away from him one by one.

Adam will most likely follow Hazel and meet with Salem and for a first time in his life he will be the one that will be used << Salem will probably use his Humiliation and thirst for Revenge I can already see something along lines " You want power and Revenge I can grant you both "

I'm also interested why Adam is like that both for Blake ( He's a Gaston until M&K will confirm he's a beast he's a Gaston for me ) but more important why he hates Humans so with such passion << I've seen theories that Adam is actually Human tbh :P

I guess I can agree with you there. But it doesn't change the fact for me that Adam became an underwhelming character, instead of being, like I said, a mysterious powerful villain. How he'd fallen so hard along with his "White Fang." But I can see that he'll be redeem in later volumes.

I can actually see that he'll be used as a piece for Salem's plans. But more so as a threat than ever. Since he failed at Mistral, he would be used as a scapegoat in Atlas. Or as a fugitive faunus who will take his revenge against Blake. And yes to his character info please. :wtf

Actually, it's in my Hopes for my next Volume ( Maybe I will later write it finally :P ) that I wouldn't mind Salem send two groups :
> Watts + Tyrian + maybe Neo to Atlas
> Adam + Hazel + Mercury and Emerald to Vacuo

Adam works in both locations tbh Vacuo is strong because Faunus and Humans are united there under the rule " If you are strong enough to survive here you're one of us " so he can be sent there to destroy that aliance ( Global comunication is gone so Faunus will still treat Adam as someone important in WF etc. + Blake can't stop him for now ) and in Atlas we have Schnee Labor Forces that Adam could use to rise a Faunus there ( but here Blake can expose him because she will also end up in Atlas )..

So yeah in both Locations Adam have some use for Salem but in Vacuo it's safer option with bigger profit if succeed.

And also I hope that in Vol.6 we will see that two characters from Salem inner Circle ( Empty Chairs )

I doubt that RT would do that because it sounds anticlimactic ( But I would go along with that tbh ) that after Atlas when Heroes will go to Vacuo they would discover that Vacuo is in Home War and the Relic and Maiden powers are already in Salem's hands :P

So the plan is to get the lamp to atlas? Well, that makes sense considering the circumstances... I wonder if next volume will deal with the gang merely taking the relic to atlas or will just take an airship there and get straight to the point. I guess that also depends on what salem's plan will be overall. It's funny but the destruction of beacon took 3 volumes... And now it kinda seems like the attacks on each one will take a volume.

I honestly don't think the series can do vacuo and atlas in a single volume lol. It sounds like... too much. it did do managerie and haven in this one though I would make the point that given the end result it was a bad idea. Managerie was a relatively small scale and self contained story so to speak and the haven battle was simply not that good or interesting. Not to mention PIS saving the day for the good guys.

Anyone else thinks weiss' mom will be the winter maiden? It'd be interesting to see the winter maiden being a middled aged drunk.

As far as vacuo being safe.... I am inclined to thinking that is not necessarily the case. Vacuo is chaotic, it should be a more or less ideal place for someone like salem to thrive. Who knows, maybe it being like that makes it the perfect hiding place.

Damn, this guy dislikes volume 5 more than I do lol. I mean, come on, just build on stuff you have.

Raven: Turns out she didn't even want cigarettes.

Yang: Took her mom's cigarettes. Uses "point out the obvious flaw in her plan". It's super effective!

Weiss: Thought blake was the quiet one. Also victim of a tragic case of writer's block.

Blake (insert roger murtaugh picture): too old for this shit. Also not being the quiet one tonight.

Rwby: As confused as brendan about weiss' dialogue.

Emerald: Would be great at Halloween parties.

Salem: Too old for leo's shit.

Leo: Couldn't run away without deleting his browser history. Leo Kebab.

Illya: Is surprised she survived the volume.

Oz: Sends everyone on an annoying errand. Conveniently goes to sleep before the annoying errand. 100% not worried that james might want to use the relics. Hopes oscar can manage the harem on his own.

Oscar: Anxious about managing the harem on his own.

Tai: For a second thought raven finally got her cigarettes and returned home.

Hazel: Fuck bees.

Phyrra: FUCK YOU CINDER YOU ARE DEAD! Right? Right?

Pilot boi: HE IS NOT DEAD HE JUST WENT HOME

Rwby volume 5 episode 14 is out on youtube:
And so, volume 5 is officially over. Now, we'll wait for volume 6 next year.

It would likely be by airship. But I don't doubt that they'll do like volume 4 where they'll go there seperately (like team RWBY + Sun on one team, team JNR on another, etc.) And since plans were failed at Mistral, Salem would probably go after Atlas next with anger to her henchmen and to them.

I feel like taking up a destruction of one place will drag too long if it's taken by 3 volumes like Beacon. I expect that it won't be as underwhelming as Mistral.

I don't like the idea of having two places featured in one volume. We already have that twice (volume 4 actually features 3 places but Atlas wasn't shown fully so I guess that doesn't count) and it felt out of place. At least they improved on their location and their timezones in volume 5. As for Weiss' mom to be the next maiden, I'm not so sure if that's a good idea as well. It would be an awesome plot twist though.

Vacuo might be a perfect place to manipulate people easily. So maybe that's why Salem would probably take Vacuo last, as she sees it as the least of her troubles.

Or maybe it's more to it than we know

We don't know whatever they taking Relic to Atlas because it will be safe there / to convince James or it has some other use there ( add that to another thing if yes that Ozpin keeping for Himself if that's the case )

I'm not saying to focus on two plot lines but have already bad guys send to Vacuo and do some stuff there as well to slowly prepare to bring it down.

Still, I think that first few episode of next Volume we would spend in Haven:
- Have our Heroes catch break ( Bad guys need to regroup as well )
- Blake and Yang talk, of course, it won't settle everything that is between them but something around the line " It's nice to having you back but I still need time to trust you again", " How can you expect me to forgive you if you can't forgive yourself " etc. :D

On a side note, I don't see this two starting that conversation on their own smh so I would love Ruby/Weiss to go push Blake to talk with Yang and on other side have Sun talk to Yang.
- Salem reaction to Haven and her further plans
- Fill in Blake into Maidens and stuff ( do it offscreen just so us Blake reaction to it )
- Develop smh the Plot of Jaune and Yang not trusting Ozpin fully ( Blake may also end into that group if Ozpin will want to use new WF without filling them in )
- Find a way to get into Atlas <<< But Honestly I see them just going there blindly and being saved by Winter...
- Some training maybe and more actual legit info about Relics and Silver eyes
- New Outfits :wtf:sky2
- I think that Transport shouldn't be a problem Blake ( I doubt that Ozpin will want any credit ) literally saves CCT towers and Academy so I don't see a problem City lending her one Ship..

Yeah, I hope we would spend first chapters ( 4/5 ) in Haven and later move to Atlas ( some fight during that Travel ) and then start Atlas and Schnee arc.and have it take at least rest of this Volume + next one and maybe some of the next one :P

But seriously part of me is afraid that We may have a time skip and seeing them already in Atlas in next Volume..:epicfacepalm

Honestly, I was hoping the next volume would start literally as close to atlas as possible. The gang got to atlas at the end of volume 4. And then went on to do a whole bunch of absolutely nothing until they walked into that ambush at the academy. The way I see it the more they stay in minstral the more it will continue to be a massive disappointment. I mean, seriously, they get to the place and it i fucking empty because the students are home and salem has already killed most hunters. Plotwise minstral is a whole bunch of nothing and dead hype. All we have left is the hype train towards atlas.

I can't help but wonder about the entry to atlas... Realistically speaking entering there should be fairly easy. Technically there is a close border but the way weiss got past it made it seem laughably easy at worst. I guess getting in might be more difficult but then there is another consideration: James was part of ozpin's inner circle. Blockade and all he is someone that could have the authority to simply let them in. And if not that, he would be the perfect ally to help them sneak in. I still think the biggest risk in regards to james is that he might want to actually use the relics.

Weiss got out before the borders were strictly closed she listen to the James and her Father Convo in which James state that he will completely close the borders with soldiers ( and he recalls all of his soldiers that's why Winter wasn't in Mistral anymore she went back to protect Atlas ).

James can let them in pretty easily if he finds out that they are there but at the same time he wasn't completely trusting towards Ozpin even during Beacon tbh..

I would still prefer to have started at Haven show us how situation stabilize there and at least show us Blake reaction towards Maidens and stuff << For example if they don't they can't later go with route Jaune and Yang stopped trusting Ozpin and Blake as well because she never trusted him ( < Show don't tell )

That's how the story should be: This happens later this happens because of this etc..

They should find out that borders are closed from Weiss come up with a plan and executed it ( meanwhile filling in Blake and anyone else who will come along )...

But yeah we most likely end up in Atlas with time skip and later with some things coming out of nowhere..

Ah, good point. Still, her escape was way too easy IMO. And she got out via dust smuggler well after the dust embargo.

I think that makes things between ozpin and james sound worst than they were. James was definitely an idiot but other than randomly showing up with an army at beacon he actually went along with what ozpin said.

How the situation stabilizes at haven? But minstral was never unstable, there is nothing to stabilize. The attack on haven was merely an attack on the school, it is very different from the attack against beacon which was prepared over multiple volumes and systematically targeted and destroyed the very things meant to protect it. From minstral's people's perspective this should be merely a thwarted terrorist attack.

Blake should be told about the stuff we have learned recently however I don't think there is enough room to make a big deal out of this. We, the viewers, already know this stuff so there is no reason to have us see things explained again. What would be interesting is seeing blake asking her own questions after being told. But otherwise I don't see a reason to not offscreen blake's induction to the whole thing.

I am guessing the biggest issue next volume when it comes to entering atlas will be communicating with james. They still don't have the means to simply call him and to actually text him they would need to get to atlas.

That proves that Jacques is a piece of shit that everyone thinks he is despite labour forces etc. if he doesn't have legal ways to sell Dust he will go with smuggling it..

That's my point that we should see the blake reaction to it whatever she agree with Ozpin and trust him completely like Ruby or she's more like Yang and Jaune in that matter.

I've recently read an interview with Kerry where he mentions that Ruby had to prove herself to be a team leader to Weiss and Blake that had big problems with that and it one of the reasons why Blake trust her so much etc. and I was like " wait Blake had a problem with Ruby being a leader ?? " <<< It's the shame that here they went with route tell not show where Ruby and Blake have almost no interactions So I don't wanna later watch and Blake take Yang/Jaune side while they will finally call Ozpin on him using people etc. and Kerry being like " Yeah Blake never trusted him " in the interview

Same goes for example for Sun whatever he will come along or not ( did he contact his team before he leaves or he decided to go back to his team and act as leader and protect Mistral now once Huntsmans are gone )

We can spend 1/2 chapters in Haven setting everything up and then have small time skip in chapter 3

Here's a thing if they would plan how to enter Atlas ( Ozpin and Qrow ) then Qrow will go alone in Bird form to James to talk to him << Finally some use for a bird form :D

But after what these two showed in preparations to defend Haven they will probably enter the ship and rush on borders and get in with luck ( Winter )

Wait, was it said that pilot boy smuggled dust for weiss' dad? I must have missed that detail. It would be weird if he did because the amount of dust he carried was still relatively minuscule. If the series is meant to be consistent then the amount of dust that is being stopped from leaving the continent should number in thousands upon thousands of containers. Remember when blake tracked down roman and the WF alongside sun? There were dozens and dozens of containers full of dust (that miraculously did not explode).

Yang I would argue is indeed in the trust ozpin boat. Otherwise she would have said something to rwby.

Holy crap, blake having such issues with ruby is too big a detail to not include in some form at least. It makes sense that stuff happens when we are not looking but come on, this is actually a big deal.

Calling out ozpin on using people? I don't really get the impression ozpin has done anything like that. At least he hasn't done anything like that in a way that can be used against him.

I'm pretty sure he was it was after James put embargo for Dust and the chest there has Schnee family crest on it..

He cared as much as he could in his ship and dunno what else Jacques is doing now << He may be one of the biggest problems in Atlas tbh considering how powerful Schnee company is there ( Paladins and other Robots are made in collaboration with Schnee family )

As for the docks in Volume one well there was no embargo so he could send big ships with containers..

Yang I would argue is indeed in the trust ozpin boat. Otherwise she would have said something to rwby.
She did state that no more half-truths to Ozpin and the only reason she will be around is Ruby

She hides the fact that Raven is a maiden from Qrow because she saw how Ozpin and Qrow act towards this subject " Hand her over " etc. they treated Maiden like an item and wanted her on they side whatever she like it or not..

Imo Yang don't trust them fully but we will see if this become plot point in the future

Yeah, I was like then Maybe Flashback or short of this..

Blake is developed but this could be chance for Ruby in that matter + these two have almost no interaction so something like that should be showed not tell in the interview

That's why I'm now fully on board show don't tell if Blake will have any small problems with Ozpin etc. I prefer to see her reaction to Ozpin explanation ( no need to show actual explanation for 4 time :D ) then later hear it was always there.

Calling out ozpin on using people? I don't really get the impression ozpin has done anything like that. At least he hasn't done anything like that in a way that can be used against him.
He asking people to fight in his war with telling them half truth or using them before they are even ready ( Sending RWBY to MG, He knew that Jaune was special that's why he accepted him which doesn't change the fact that if not Pyrrha Jaune would die in episode 4/5, Hazel Sister )

And whole Pyrrha case how many of truth he told her 30 %? << at least he told her that she may not be the same person anymore yay :D

I'm not saying Ozpin is evil I just don't agree with his methods because it seems if it means to beat Salem he would Sacrifice people sure for a greater good but the reason he's failing for so long is because he uses secrets and lies ( it's easier for Salem to Divide people that way ).

That's why I'm now fully on board show don't tell if Blake will have any small problems with Ozpin etc. I prefer to see her reaction to Ozpin explanation ( no need to show actual explanation for 4 time :D ) then later hear it was always there.

He asking people to fight in his war with telling them half truth or using them before they are even ready ( Sending RWBY to MG, He knew that Jaune was special that's why he accepted him which doesn't change the fact that if not Pyrrha Jaune would die in episode 4/5, Hazel Sister )

And whole Pyrrha case how many of truth he told her 30 %? << at least he told her that she may not be the same person anymore yay :D

I'm not saying Ozpin is evil I just don't agree with his methods because it seems if it means to beat Salem he would Sacrifice people sure for a greater good but the reason he's failing for so long is because he uses secrets and lies ( it's easier for Salem to Divide people that way ).
The schnee family crest being there is a given considering they have a virtual monopoly on the market. Basically there is no other dust to smuggle but schnee dust. And I still can't imagine a man with as much wealth as starting a dust smuggling cartel only to ship less dust than you'd find at an average mom and pop dust shop.

She is hiding raven being a maiden? I think it is too early to tell that. Not to mention that the way ozpin and his crew handle the maiden stuff has not been shown to be unreasonable.

His war? The war is in no form or context ozpin's. Humanity is at war with salem whether it wants it or not. Unless the series has not actually told us the truth about the war's true nature.

MG? Ozpin didn't use them, ozpin did them a favor because they begged for it. RWBY were the ones that completely on their own went on a one team rampage against crime and gathered the info about the probably illegal activities at MG. Ruby was the one that leaked that information to ozpin which is what resulted in dr oobleck being sent on a reconnaissance mission there. All ozpin did there was give the girls a chance to join oobleck for the mission. However the bulk of this was ultimately rwby's doing.

I am not sure that ozpin knew jaune was special. How could he? We have no reason to believe ozpin can tell such a thing. Assuming jaune even is special, for all we know he is just a guy with a nice semblance. I think ozpin just took a gamble there.

A for phyrra... yeah, ozpin didn't tell her everything but did even knowing what we know now I don't know if it is fair to fault him for the bits he left out. He explained as much as he thought was reasonable and through the whole thing gave phyrra plenty of information regarding the risks involved. For as much as he left out, I don't really get the impression he was even trying to deceive phyrra.

A for hazel's sister... Come on, hazel's sister was as far as we know a random girl that died doing a random training mission. How can that actually be ozpin's fault? I don't see any specific reason for this to specifically be ozpin's fault TBH. At least with the context we have now.

What I do fault ozpin with is not the stuff you mention but rather keeping everything a secret from the world at large. And also the unreal amount of influence the guy has. He held a position of power at beacon, had james in his inner circle meaning he had 2 votes at the atlas council, had leo meaning he had a vote at the minstrel council... However him training students to fight grimm is not a bad thing or even worth faulting him with.

Looking at those images, for reasons I don't understand, made me think about how yang doesn't go super saiyan anymore. She uses her semblance but up until volume three when she activated it her hair got brighter and she seemed to release fire. However now her eyes just turn red. So... what is up with the change?
