[@ExpertoftheBlade]

@@midnightcarnivalmember there is a theory Yatsuhashi and the White Fang Lieutenant are the same person. Mainly because its similar size, skin tone, combat styles, and hair style, plus Yatsu covers his left shoulder where the White Fang Lieutenant has a tattoo. If we add in the memory wipe semblance, it is possible that if anyone were to discover his identity, he could simply wipe away their memory of it. This doesn't really account for the breach, where the WFL was on the train and Yatsu showed up with his team to the breach, but WFL wasn't at the Fall of Beacon while Yastu was

[@midnightcarnivalmember]

[@renmojito6796]

@@madsi6563 I think you're correct but looking at it the wrong way (only guessing since they don't tell us anything). But I assume it's to make it count because of how costly money wise, the attacks are. And I'm unsure, but I don't think she has to use ever single photo she took in one go. Which is why I'm saying the fact that shew blew penny's could have been more powerful since she can always recapture the others.

[@lucasrobin2788]

it's pretty strongly implied with two of Coco's lines and Velvet's camera work. In Volume 2, she takes an awkwardly angled photo of Sun and shows it to Ruby, who believes that Velvet is just bad at photography. But we can understand that Velvet was actually photographing Sun's gunchucks, not Sun himself. We then see her put her camera back into her box. Later on in Volume 2, Coco says 'Don't waste them here' implying that Velvet's weapon uses up a finite resource of some sort. Finally, in Volume 3 when Velvet uses her weapon, Coco says 'just make em count' once again reaffirming the finite resource. Imo Velvet's weapon and semblance are one of the best examples of show-don't-tell in the series, which it struggles with

[@arnowisp6244]

Because his brain hasn't "learned" to see at all. When we are young babies, as we look around the world while making bubbles our brain is training itself in the vision department. Because fox is blind since birth, returning his vision now will give him headaches plus he won't recognize his team by sight. He will have to train his brain to "recognize" what it sees.

[@Acepunydefoc]

@@arnowisp6244 That's assuming the goggles even work. I mean you can theorize they link to the optical nerve and that Fox would be blind from the nerve up, not the eyes, and that would solve it. 'Cos your explanation just means he'd take time to learn it, making it still viable.

[@a_store_clerk_dude1844]

Nikolas Holmes that, and it’s made clear that the goggles clearly aren’t for use when in combat and such. It’s shown time and time again that Maria’s goggles can very easily be disrupted or broken with some electricity or blunt force damage, so... Honestly it’d probably hurt more than help Fox. Get used to sight only to have it stripped away again in battle and have to suddenly change your entire fighting style would be most disorienting.

Imagine how terrifying this would be in the hands of somebody with a huge amount of income for example the Weiss family it would essentially be a real life pay to win they got to be very careful with this and it's probably the reason they didn't explore it too much as it would be hard to put it into Canon without other wealthy individuals showing a huge amount of interest that has to say that it was her uncle's design or something like that otherwise there would be a pothole of why doesn't every wealthy family use it if some random can use it sparingly imagine tab unsparingly somebody else could use it with the money to support it no I realised the argument to this is that works with her semblance even if you have the Enemies gun that doesn't necessarily mean you really know how to use it but her semblance as in really special it allows her to copy somebody's fighting style very very easily but to a trained individual they could to do something similar without needing it to be a semblance this would seem like an overpowered semblance at high school but as you start to fight more powerful individuals as you start to fight adults it would seem underpowered weak even I like to envision it is training wheels really powerful early on but start to get list so later on now obviously not every adult is going to be able to read somebody's moves almost instantaneously but if you're fighting somebody who lives for a fight or was brought up around fighting it wouldn't be too hard to expect a loss especially if they have a semblance combat oriented this is a very interesting someone's which would be very hard to balance and the story along with her interesting weapon sorry I use voice to text I could go back and fix it but I'm too lazy you should be able to figure out what I mean to abbreviate what I said for those that don't have the time her semblance can be seen as overpowered to children but not to veterans her weapon is broken unless they say that her uncle made it or something otherwise any other rich family would use it she has to have a Monopoly on the technology to make it otherwise it breaks the Canon

2:53 It would be nice, but remember that there's a difference. I'm pretty sure Fox was born blind, while Maria got slashed across the eyes by a weapon. Different kinds of optical damage. Adam might've been using a cloth similar to Gauze or Burlap in that you can see through it if it's right in front of your eyes.

[@Acepunydefoc]

I think maria goggles link to her optical nerve since what she got damaged were the eyes. If Fox's blindness comes from the nerves instead of the eye the goggles wouldn't work. Also Adam could use sensory aura, I mean his left eye is damaged he could have trained it. We already saw Ren sense enemies before seeing them several times.

[@jdbeistline5230]

I actually thought Velvet's semblance was fairly well covered in the show. Unless you weren't paying attention to the smaller dialogue during their season 2 fight, Coco tells her to save it for later, meaning there is a use limit for whatever is stored. And in the clash since she used each one, one by one, we can surmise that it's a one-time use until she's able to snap a pic of it again. It's a great example of "show, don't tell" which keeps shows like this very entertaining without needless and detractful exposition dumps. If you can't extrapolate that kind of detailed information, then.. idk what to say, RWBY is full of 'show, don't tell' so it might be easy for some of us to miss a lot of important foreshadowing. I think Fox was the one who had the least amount of information in the show, seconded by Yatsuhashi, and Coco. Yatsuhashi's performance in the arena vs Mercury hinted that he could somehow confuse an opponent. Remember that weird pause while Mercury focused on Yatshuhashi? it didn't have much effect since Mercury can only rely on his martial skill as an assassin which had been ingrained into muscle memory. Very nice to see that team CFVY has now been much more defined.

There is Eidetic Memory and Photographic Memory which needs to be called out. Eidetic is having memories so clear, they are vivid as if they happen in the current time, right in front of you. Sometimes, all the way senses of tasting, hearing and so on. Photographic is more related to information in itself and does not come with the visual, it means you just know it For example, an Eidetic memory means you experience everything. Photographic is more like, you look at something and while you may not remember visually like a page or event, what happened is right in your brain. As example, if you study a book, you may not visualize each page but everything you read, you remember clearly and never forget. If a person tells you something, you may not remember it visually all the information is there from what they said. It's a strange event cause even if you don't see it in your mind, you know the colours they wore, etc. You just will always remember. Or another example: say you study for a test. Eidetic memory would literally see the book in front of them they read. Photographic remembers everything written but not the entire image of the book. One is vivid visually, the other information. And this is the part where you must realize, Velvet will literally never forget being bullied by Cardin.

For Fox, I get the vibe the winking thing is him trying to be more warm and open. He's someone who doesn't speak, doesn't look at you (he's blind) and likes to play jokes. It probably puts people off. So he actively tries to be more playful, as best he can. As for when he picked it up, sounds like a backstory thing.

Perfectly emphasizes her thigh.

[@rigmerkrel8339]

Got to have them thighs to f++k like a rabbit. :)

[@firelordwaffle2987]

I wish they kept these guys in the story. God I love this team.

[@sincerelykiwii]

Thats so cool!!! Now I really need to read After the Fall. I wasn't too interested in the book until now.

[@AsDerouxWoofWolf]

I can't wait to learn all of the character's Semblance! Oh, I need to get that book 😸

[@sreddi83]

Fox has all the talents i wish Ren had

[@scrapper3494]

Well, the members of Team RWBY would have figured out that Blake was a Faunus much quicker than they did in canon if she didn't have human ears, so it makes sense that Faunus with animal ears also have human ears.

[@gentlecard_tom]

I always wanted to know their semblances! Thanks for making this video!

[@RelekBrudder]

CFVY is my favourite 'outside-of-RWBY-JNR' team!

[@Hoonsy2you]

Yatsu kann make people forget stuff they don't care about - makes his mother forget her second Child.

[@Desdemona-XI]

When it comes to adam's blindfold there actually is a pretty straightforward explanation. A large number of materials can be worn over the eye and appear solid when worn on the skin but not impede vision much. I used a similar trick for a nazgul look one halloween when i was younger. And indidnt even have the approptiate cloth. I improvised it with a knitted scarf. But materials like that are well used in cinema and theatre to give actors apparent lack of a face and the like. I mean the classic scream mask used cloth over the eyes the same way. Generally it does dim vision a little. But even at night its workable. And thats with normal human eyes.

[@BeeStingz]

Fox is my favorite out of the team, not gonna flex

[@nahte123456]

For how Adam could see with the blindfold, you do remember in Volume 4 Ren was able to feel Tyrian from quite a ways away without seeing him, so "aura sight" is totally a thing.

[@CartoonUniverse]

Oh good catch!

[@KaitheKnightly]

Since I didnt want to be spoiled on backstories. I just went ahead and skipped around to learn just the semblances.

[@ThePokeShapeshifter]

Big guy who can make people forget eh? i think we have another Kellam on our hands

[@Arcticgreen]

Different blindfolds, when made from different materials, allow for different amounts of light to pass through. What appears opaque from a distance can seem transparent (or semi-transparent) up close. Just think about how sunglasses work. I know, I work a 3rd shift job and often have to use something to cover my eyes so I can sleek when it is daylight out, so I have to keep in mind which materials I use for that or it won't work.

[@scottcrow1416]

1:18 SAME! my story is different though. When I was younger I was playing hide and seek with my cousin at his house and it was Around 6 in the morning (we stayed up all night), so we were playing alone. While playing, my dumbass younger self thought it was a good idea to hide in the fridge ( 1- Thank god, The fridge was not working. 2-the fridge was square shaped with the door from above, so I had to open the door and jump inside to hide.) And I was thinking I hit the jackpot with this hiding spot till I heard something above me, turns out my cousin was spying on me while I was hiding and put a plastic chair over the door. The door was already abit difficult to open from inside, so imagine a chair over it, I kept trying to push the door harder and harder, not opening, tried to tell him, he couldn't hear me. In the end, I pushed the door with my shoulder as hard as I can, and managed to knock the chair off, got out and chased that idiot around the house for a while. He's my best friend, but the idiot made me scared of even staying in a dimly lit and closed room. T_T

[@MewMeg]

Just to say but it's totally possible to see with Adam's blindfold. Have you ever seen NieR Automata cosplays ?

[@zelda_tickell]

In terms of the cloth over the eyes, I have a mask that I fitted with a black cloth. I could still see through the fabric, but only if there is enough light. The fabric was silky on one side, and thought on the other. The silkyness of the fabric prevented you from looking through one side, so perhaps Adams cloth works like that?

[@Badger77722]

I think Adam's blindfold/mask uses the old magician's trick of a mesh blindfold. When you look at it from a distance (as an observer), it looks solid. When it's literally within an inch of your eyes, you actually see through the open spaces in the mesh, and your mind quickly learns to compensate for the small areas that are actual fabric that you can't see through. Your view is slightly dimmer than having nothing in front of your eyes, but you can actually see surprisingly well through such a mask.

[@comicalpeculiarity6319]

Lets rank em Coco: LAME! or at least not as cool as I thought Fox: The best one here easily! Velvet: I thought it was just her weapon, but that’s cool too Yatsuhashi: Sword boi does wat now?

[@dujeanhickling61]

I always thought his was stronger as he was the strongest person we have seen at that point. Plus I also thought crow had a similar semblance as yang as when he was hit while fight Weiss's sister his eyes glowed then his next attack was like yatshi's. This and we never really see trainer huntsmen with that level of strength normally so I thought it was their semblances

[@YumaNanami]

I imagine that Adam could see just fine, It wasn't a Blind fold but probably cloth or even Blakes Ribbon. I have a bunch of Black shirts that if I look through them I can see through, and as a Fanus he probably had better sight than me.

[@logicmeister1821]

I'm pretty sure that Adam can see through the holes in the cloth. I can do the same with a hoodie, just put it over my eyes to cover my face, yet still clearly enough to effortlessly navigate

[@kingpablothe1stoverlordoft871]

So, velvet is like taskmaster but if he was a british bunny girl? Sweet.

[@Shino2912]

I love this!

[@GTGAMERZ]

the book actually sounds pretty good, Im surprised

[@FJTA]

Nice that you use the rwby amity arena sprites for this vid🤣🤣😁😁

[@curvingfyre6810]

I know how he was able to see. As a kid, I had a wierd habit of taking random types of cloth and seeing if I could see and/or breath through it. Guess I liked the idea of masks? Dont remember why I did it, but I do remember a lot of the results. Long story short, you can get a surprising amount of function through a lot of different kinds of thin and/or loose weave cloth.

[@calacalamari3977]

semblances are a reflection of one’s personality, right? what if velvet was really insecure that all she could do was copy others, that could be a cool character arc for her!!!

[@adawnicusautocon]

2:11 I believe that Adam was wearing one of those see-through cloths, it's see-through if your very close to it or if stretched.

[@t-moneytiger1815]

I don't think Adam was able to see. Just had enhance senses like hearing do to his training like a ninja/samurai

[@Lion_Tess]

Thank you for the subtitles! ❤

[@leoryff979]

WELL NOW I HAVE TO FIND THE BOOK! ....There aren't any book stores near my house anymore tho. T_T

[@millasboo]

The reason why he knows what a wink is is most likely because of his “telepathy “ because winking is sometimes involuntary but it’s usually something you think about before doing. Also what he has seems more like telepathic sensing or empathetic visualization(which is the ability to feel and see and feel natural auras and emotions in your vicinity) not just regular telepathy because then he could read minds and talk in a person’s head .

[@leoli2450]

come to think of it, Yatsuhashi might have one of the best PVP semblance out of everyone we met. Like, with the case of his little sister, i assume he can erase any memory anyone has, but difficulty varies. However, disorienting people is easily one of the least-fun way to use his semblance. I can already see him completely make his enemies unaware of his teammate's existence, or making him or her forgetting that they are enemies at all, possibly even making them forget about their own weapon! these are very powerful ways to utilize a memory wipe because it can create opening vital to the outcome the entire fight. The fact that we never get to see him use it in the show kind of made me die a little inside.

[@josecolon2717]

Coco has a dust boosting semblance... Hmm combine that with Jaunes aura booster and coco could turn Velvets dust into something super OP or even Weiss mid Dust spell... How very curious that should both jaune and coco combine semblances and focus on even something like the already enhanced dust in cocos mini gun, it could basically rip through high tier Grimm...

[@shylock7989]

I always thought Velvet's semblance was to copy other people's fighting styles. Which is why I thought her weapon pairs well with her semblance as she can project the weapon needed for a fighting style.

[@TheElementsAreWithMe]

Intresting, the leader is the only one with a physical like semblance, and the only fanus of the group we know next to little about, compare to her her human teammates who's pasts completely sucked, not to mention her weapon is the only one with a lot of complexity, but then again Fanus's weapons are known to have the most imagination. If and when they reach Vacuo, I'm sure Ruby and then will meet them again.
