#RWBYV8SPOILERS #RWBY8Spoilers IT HURTS ! IT FUCKING HURTS ! I HATE IT ! I'M CRYING ! I'M SHAKING ! I REALLY FEEL BAD HERE ! IT IS EVEN WORSE THAN V3E12 ! "Sometimes it's worth it all to risk the fall", yeah, indeed ! And sometimes, it's just too painful ! (1/25)
#RWBYV8SPOILERS #RWBY8Spoilers The fights were great. But they clearly weren't the most important part of the episode... I'm... Really not feeling fine with this episode. There's a lot to unpack and I don't even know where to start from... (2/25)
#RWBYV8SPOILERS #RWBY8Spoilers For once, let's start with the end... We finally got a Penny song... I called it ! I was right ! But at what cost ? Penny died again... And this time, no coming back. It hurts so much ! But I'm kinda mixed about that. I get the intention (3/25)
I know people are mad about Penny but this wasn't undoing her character development.
Penny redefined EVERY truth Ironwood had created. With every action she took she undid his power, with every choice she made she dismantled his patriarchy

He never saw her as human, but she became human by her own choices.
He isolated her from others, but she made her life about people she loved.
He defined the fates of other women, but she set them free.

He defined the fates of other women, but she set them free.
He encoded death into her programming, but she decided her own death so that she could empower other women, so that she could remain herself
They’re not the same picture but it’s an interesting parallel nonetheless.

In case anyone was wondering, for me the main difference is that I think Ironwood was being much more genuine. Both Blake and Winter were groomed and manipulated, but Adam did it all knowingly while I don't think Ironwood was doing it as intentionally (not defending him though.)
Expanding on this, Blake's storyline with Adam was very much a narrative of personal abuse showcasing how predatory individuals take advantage of people, while Winter's arc with Ironwood is more a commentary on the dangers of authoritarian militaristic systems as a whole.

The discourses I predict after that premiere:
— Yang is still apparently a terrible sister because even though she willingly separated from Blake for the good of the mission she dared to speak bluntly to Ruby so clearly she hates her.

— B/umbleby is already bait or being dragged out too long because they didn’t kiss in the first episode even though R/enora got the same brief focus and this chapter was 90% plot stuff to set up the Volume.
— Ironwood is still somehow redeemable after being happy to kill two innocent people for no reason because “gruff tough macho man always right let me lick his boots even more blah blah blah.”
