[@kumbi8368]

Winter = Winter Maiden Fall = Fall Maiden Vernal = *So Close*

Nora: Got it, her name is Winter.

Mr9TalesFox lol. Nora *would* be the one to point it out.

Vernal means spring. Another name for the spring equinox is the vernal equinox

[@kumbi8368]

Annabel Baldwin she didn’t end up being the Spring Maiden though.

[@yakkobutmute6000]

@@kumbi8368 Branwen is the name of a major character in the story called The Second Branch of Mabinogi. Branwen means beautiful raven, and in the story she tames a Starling, another type of bird, to send a message across the Irish Sea. With the name and story having so many connections to birds, and Raven using Vernal as a substitute, or Starling, it is sorta understandable why Raven is the spring maiden.

[@nicholaspeets4156]

[@davido.1233]

It just occurred to me that if Cinder comes in at some point before or after Winter becomes a maiden, we could be seeing the end of Winter Schnee very soon, and then one of two things will happen! 1. Cinder absorbs the powers of the Winter Maiden directly from Winter. Or 2. Winter defies Cinder's plan and transfers the power to Weiss instead.

[@xscholar1612]

Honestly, I don't see Winter dying like Pyrrha did in Volume 3. Pyrrha's personality, background and the pressure of everything around her were the reasons that she died. Winter might still have some pressure, but it had been building up over years, unlike the few days Pyrrha had, so her decisions would likely be much more rational. Also, Winter is a very reserved and calculated individual who doesn't like to take risks from what we've seen, so I don't think she'd put herself in a position to get killed.

Considering the relic of creation is seemingly based on gungir, Odin's spear from Norse mythology and the winter maiden is named Fria (as in Odin's wife) and Nora is based off of Thor...is Winter going to fail to become the maiden and Nora will become the new Winter maiden? Is Fria the Grandmother Nora referenced back in Chibi?

[@mewmewlover9]

Figured you probably caught this in re-watches, but I thought I'd mention it for people who haven't yet: The remaining members of Team FNKI's names are Kobalt and Ivori (Neon calls them by their name in passing). Since Team FNKI's motif is memes (with Neon Katt being Nyan Cat, and Flint Coal being both a reference to Achievement Hunter's "flint coal" jokes and a possible reference to "Doot Doot Mr. Skeltal") Kobalt and Ivori are currently thought to be sharing a reference to the Black and Blue/Gold and White dress that plagued the internet like 4 years ago, though I'm not sure if that's been confirmed or not.

I discovered this channel about 3 weeks ago... and I've fallen in love with it! I love how excited Arnold gets, how he sings the intros every time, and I love hearing his theories too. I know no one else who enjoys RWBY, and in fact my partner and couple friends dislike it (they're crazy, I know). However, I love the animation, the story, the lore, the plot twists, the character development... Everything! So, to come here when I'm feeling down (mainly due to MDD and anxiety), and to see Arnold being so emotional and excitable over something we all love so much... It lengthens the experience, and adds another layer to the show. If you're reading this Arnold, I have to thank you so much for all of your hard work and dedication to your channel and your fans, it makes me wonder how many others lives you've improved. You've got Ruby's spark for sure. R - "We've all lost something, and I've seen what loss can do to people. But if we gave up every time we lost, then we'd never be able to move forward." W - "I am more than a name." B - "There's too much wrong in this world to just stand by and do nothing. Inequality, corruption... Someone has to stop it. Y - “Anyone can give up; it is the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone would expect you to fall apart, now that is true strength.”

[@thegreenprince02]

Nothing brings me more joy than watching Arnold bop around to intro 😊 Edit: his reaction to FNKI’s return was even better

[@10N1Z3D]

"What's a bigger spoiler than Penny?" Me: oh, past Arny... if only you knew what happened in the next episode

[@SimplyBetta]

Omg your reactions are so entertaining! Penny is the best! (I'm her voice :P)

[@600steele]

calling it now, shit's going to go wrong and Weiss is going to end up the maiden instead.

[@soulmate8308]

you honestly give the best reactions ever, Been a follower since volume 4 and every year I can't wait for RWBY season so I can see your videos 😅 You deserve all your subscribers and more!!

The first half of this video is Murder losing his dang mind; the other half is anxiety and excited noises re-watching these is a real treat, right now 😄

[@grayfox4819]

I'm so glad I've found out of this show and The Dragon Prince. After MLP ended, and after Miraculous turned out to be a mastodontic waste of time, I really needed something to fill the holes. Good thing I found out these two.

[@alexjd1278]

Lol everything you said was relatable especially miraculous i stopped watching a while ago i might watch the series finale but im not watching the rest anymore also mlp ended sad

She is dead and Tyrian will be the killer.

@@wonderneverlandsystem9497 Dont ask me about LGBT based question, i never has exprience with unquestionable society that living on our global which bring disgrace to humanity. Ask Miles Luna instead, you most likely learn weird knowledge or perhaps you will become new winter maiden.. i mean a doctor in future.

[@kameronanohnii7419]

🍿 Anyone?

[@TheShadowDragon21]

RT said that when Neo comes back she's going to do something we'll hate her for. So I'm calling it now; Neo kills Winter and Fria to become the next Winter Maiden.

[@UnknownSpectre5]

'Whats a bigger spoiler than Penny?' Oh no.....

[@gwenitsuko3192]

Watch Robin and Clover were on the same team

[@theonlyturtlequeen]

I feel like Winter's going to die/be evil, but I love her

[@theycallmebad]

Die? Possibly. Be evil? Not likely.

[@zenawyn1952]

I’m thinking that because she’s shown this to Weiss now, somehow she’s gonna be the one to see things go wrong? Like, they get invaded and Winter rushes with Weiss to protect Fria but something happens and the power doesn’t go to Winter.... what are the chances it’ll go to Weiss? I don’t think it’s likely but there’s a chance. It’s just really... Ugh, it’s difficult to picture

[@theycallmebad]

@@zenawyn1952 I can't imagine Weiss getitng the powers over Winter (if Winter getsthem at all) and Miles and Kerry did state in a Q&A that they didn't like the idea of team RWBY becoming Maidens.

[@zenawyn1952]

theycallmebad yeah I thought so, well I’m curious to see where they go from here

[@scarletrose8766]

Miss America if and only if winter dies maybe Weiss gets it...... RT also mentioned oh penny is not gonna be back trust us..... Really dude really

[@MadMax-ii8gq]

Nice reaction. This episode had some cool action while revealing some big things.

[@Paula-ys7cv]

this is my first time watching this channel but this guy sounds so excited over rwby I'm gonna subscribe

[@SarujinieUras]

Okay, calling it now: Salem is personally going to kill Winter Schnee

[@ArthurCrane92]

My impressions (SPOILER WARNING): -You know that scene in Stranger Things 3 where all the moms at the public pool are checking out Billy the lifeguard? I want an edit of that scene but Billy has Jaune's face. -Whoever had "return of Team FNKI" on their bingo card for this volume must be very happy. I realize that Neon's shit-talking during the fight and being all friendly-like afterwards is "a thing" for her. I find this annoying. -Penny's conversation with Ruby makes it seem she was pretty lonely after she was rebuilt. She doesn't seem to consider Ironwood or Winter as friends, only colleagues. No wonder she was extra excited to see Ruby again. I'm so happy that they're spending more time together, which was seriously lacking in V1-3. -I'm slowly but surely warming up more to the Ace-Ops. Shout-out to Clover for being a good friend for Qrow. He may not have full context for what they've been through, but it's clear that Qrow played an important role in helping the team get this far, especially his nieces. It's arguable this is the other way around now, but it's still important. -I like that there's verbal acknowledgment that Qrow no longer drinks. I remember how last episode he was the one telling people to lighten up and enjoy themselves and even giving Ruby some good advice. He had been sober for like 2 days tops at that point but his demeanor was already improving. Not exactly realistic, but I appreciate it all the same. It's almost like not being an alcoholic is a quality-of-life improvement or something. -Robyn comes across as morally questionable but not a bad guy. Not trustworthy to our heroes, but still wants to do good. I know of that clip on RT's Twitter account that got leaked for a few minutes, so I know she's gonna fight Blake and Yang. I'm kinda hoping she makes Adam look like practice (though less muder-y). -The last time someone had a plan for who gets to have a Maiden's powers once the former one dies didn't work out very well... -Jacques' speech boils down to "Vote for me to protect you from Ironwood, also to get back your jobs which I've just taken away". Dude is straight-up drinking the Salem Kool-Aid already. -Speculation: Seems like the next episode will start a little before Jacques' rally, and various members of the team are gonna be scattered amid the ensuing riots/chaos. This seems like an awfully inconvenient time for some murderous, revenge-seeking baddies to come looking for Ruby...

[@sir_will_iam]

You freakin killed this opening song dude 🔥🔥👌🏾

[@GamingChiliHedgehog]

Just throwing this out there...Winter's gonna die. If I'm right, then I'm a wizard!

[@boltindie9011]

11:33 no Arnold, the ship isn’t getting attacked. It’s growing exponentially! XD Like if you get the joke

[@laurenhawes7201]

I really hope the next episode weiss ends up visiting thr winter maiden and gets then inherits the winter maiden power. I know its unlikely but i would love for the maiden to have a heart to heart with weiss and choose her.

[@joshuajonathan6563]

You cry in the next episode

[@theycallmebad]

Miles and Kerry confirmed at an Q&A that team RWBY won't be Maidens and there's literally no reason for them to be so, much less that Weiss would suddenly go down there and be allowed access.

[@minaryte5669]

If Winter does become the Winter Maiden, not only will that make her a target but it will also make Weiss a target because they are sisters.

[@gabgalla7403]

9:22 that was the exact reaction I would expect from you.

[@user-vx6dp5ft9l]

Chapter 7 is just shipping and sailing to the max

[@ChaosContrl]

I just realized that all the kingdoms' emblems represent the relics. You can see the lantern of Mistral, the staff of Atlas, the sword of Vacuo, and the (laurel) crown of Vale.
