It seems like for someone educated on ATLA, they somehow manage to botch up redemption arcs WORSE than many typical examples, let alone Zuko, the bare minimum (His arc is overrated IMO).

Not just Emerald, not just Ilia, not just Cinder and Salem (eventually), but they did this in RVB: Zero with Phase/East.

And notice how they are all girls? Not Adam, Roman or Ironwood with some of the most compelling setups behind their characters. Double standards much?
 
The Grimm invasion is basically over. Oscar's blast didn't just kill Hazel and stun Salem, it erased the entire whale and the entirety of the battlefield, but coincidentally only the Grimm perished in the blast, none of the people. Now Ironwood is taking the full villain role as he threatens to glass Mantle if Penny doesn't come forward.

Christ, Salem has been humiliated this volume.

Surprised he didn't go further and just try to take her by force instead while arresting the main characters again and use their very lives as an ultimatum as well. Then again, that's probably going to happen anyway given how RT's writing Ironwood as Hitler 2.0 at this point.

Best part was definitely Watts shittalking Cinder.

Well, CRWBY is thinking that offering Penny to turn herself in is Ironwood not being horrible.

Yet he doesn't know she's out cold and probably won't be awake during that one-hour window. I get why people might think James is the only same man, but at the same time, his tactics are flat out retarded even taking into account the rest of the show's logic.

People think he WAS the sane man, which is why this volume has made him progressively worse so the writers don't have to address how he was making sense last volume.
 
Man CRWBY must have some pretty good mining equipment because every time I think we hit rock bottom, they somehow dig even further. What a pile of god awful nonsensical crap. Didn't even give us a empire strikes back-esque hoth battle.

That's what I'm trying to say, there's still people on /co/ who still think Ironwood's the sane one in this situation when it's very much clear he doesn't give a shit about Mantle anymore and will probably nuke it regardless of what plot point happens next.

Ironwood still did nothing wrong.

Mantle sucks. All we've seen them do is riot and loot. Nuking it regardless is based.

Seriously. For all their hand wringing over Mantle nobody gave us a reason to actually care about anyone there except the two old people.
