*Casually drops 5 minutes of sins* KALI WON'T HESITATE BiNcHES Soooo this episode was a thing, like, for real. I feel like a need to talk about it a bit. -I really loved Weiss being there for Yang, she's grown so much since RWBY started and I'm not joking when I say she's the best character in my opinion. -Yang acting like a rejected lover was just LOL. Expecially considering what happened in the second part of the episode. Overally I understand her anger towards Blake, it is very justified, but I'm glad that Voice Of Reason managed to guess and explain to Yang why Blake left her. It added to the resons why I love Weiss so much. -I don't know if you people noticed but Yang was stroking Blake's picture................................................ -Yang's eyes flared red like llia's upon talking about Blake... in the same episode.....I'm not trying to imply anything...heh..I promise..... -Did you notice that Blake was scared of ilia turning into Adam just like she was about Yang in Volume 3? Do you realize how much of a dick Adam must have been to throw Blake into such paranoia? -TURNS OUT BLAKE HAS A SCAR FROM ADAM STABBING HER IN VOLUME 3 http://sir-adamus.tumblr.com/post/168261614591/secrettunnelyeah-yang-is-a-branwen I wonder how the scar is gonna be brought up, maybe she'll show it to Ilia so she can finally realize what kind of psycho is Adam? Or it's gonna be brought up during the beeunion? -Sun is growing to me so much, he's actually useful now and not annoying like in V4. -Weiss is really roasting everyone wtf -Weiss and Sun are the ultimate wingmen, just look at this http://lesbianonice.tumblr.com/post/168195440899/yangonfire-sunweiss-she-loves-you-you -ISN'T GHIRA MY NEW DADDY HOLY FUCK (ps. Kali&Ghira Protection squad even though by the time this gets out I'll already know their fate...pls survive, you need to meet RWY) -Ilia Amitola. I couldn't care less if she was gay or straight, I'd still love her with all my heart. But I admit that knowing she was in love with Blake made me really sad for her (it also made impossible to watch Blake's CS again without hurting like hell), and having the first lgbt character revealed is great as well. Despite being pretty obvious to me I admit it still cought me by surprise, because I thought they had pretty much.. "platonized" their relationship in Episode 5. Guess I was wrong, but I'm not complaining, it opens up new doors for Blake's arc. HOWEVER, there are few things that are bugging me: 1) People acting like Ilia's motivation is soley unreciprocated feelings towards Blake. It is extremely stupid considering she explained very well what were her motivations during Blake's Character Short. She tried to protect Blake in every way possible, she didn't lay a finger on her, all she did was what the WF asked her to do, and even then you can see she was feeling regretful af. I hope you realize that the White Fang is the only family Ilia has ever had since her parents died. Her desire to get revenge for her parents, her trust in Adam, her conviction to the cause the WF is fighting for. The White Fang IS EVERYTHING ILIA HAS EVER KNOWN, she has NOTHING aside from that. If you expected Ilia to just switch sides out of the blue in the name of her love for Blake then you were hoping for bad writing. She will be redemed, all it takes is for her to realize how much of a psycho Adam is, but you can't expect her to change over night just because Blake came back to Menagerie. Something needs to happen first, she needs that one thing, that click, that will push her over the edge and switch sides. So please stop shitting on her and calling her a bitch just because she "betrayed" Blake cause she's "another obsessive psycho lesbian Adam", she's nothing like him, she doesn't hurt Blake because of her sorrow, she doesn't stalk her so she can kill "everything Blake loves", all she did, all along, was what the WF asked her to do. So stfu already, your whiney asses are getting annoying. 2) I have no right to speak out on lgbt issues and how representation should work, but I'll tell you this. Everyone was screaming "ILIA IS GAY" when the Character Short first came out, and now people are pissed that Ilia is a lgbt villain because it's "bad representation"? Don't get me wrong, I am not criticizing the notion itself because there is a toxic tendency of portraing lesbians as villains, it's true, I understand your frustration, but please keep in mind that Ilia is currently the most redeemable character in RWBY, and she's most definitely not the only lgbt character. Rooster Teeth made it clear that Ilia is not betraying Blake because of "one sided feelings", they are not antagonizing her, they are doing the opposite, they want us to feel bad for her. So please, just...don't jump to conclusions yet. ps. Don't despair about the lack of Super-Ilia and Sin Wukong in this. They are making a return soon....
