DON’T YOU DARE FUCKING END IT RIGHT THERE HOW COULD YOU
AND THE FUCKING CONCEPT ART OF PENNY I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU’VE DONE THIS
Well, pain, agony, and suffering aside, this was a FANTASTIC episode
All the stuff with Yang, and finding out more about Blake and how she trusts Yang to be different and not lie to her, despite her past. Finally a real explanation of where Jaune’s insecurities come from.
The leaf freaking symbolism got me right in the heart. THE ARKOS CANONIZATION GOT ME RIGHT IN THE HEART
And then Pyrrha just fully having a breakdown, terrifying Jaune and herself and revealing that she KNOWS that she has to become a Maiden. But she wants to badly not to have to, she’s looking for a loophole and she turns to Jaune for one, and he… he tells her to throw him away and go through with it
AND THEN THE NEXT MATCH IS PYRRHA FIGHTING PENNY?! PYRRHA MAGNET HANDS NIKOS FIGHTNING PENNY TEENAGE ROBOT POLENDINA
AND THE WAY THE BADDIES HAVE JUST GIVEN UP ON SUBTLETY REALLY MAKES BE TERRIFIED ABOUT WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN IN THIS FIGHT
All this to say, I loved the episode. It legitimately made me cry at parts. Thank you all so much for reading, thank you to the Discord and all those on Patreon for the support. The next episode will be on Wednesday at the normal time, if the emotions don’t give me a heart attack before then
