I think it’d be safe to call her power “20/20 Hindsight” if only because she’s able to pick up on what people did wrong before they even realize it themselves and save them a lot of time

I saw a few people say the same in the reblogs. Looked up the word and it seems to fit well!

Foresight for Sapphire, Hindsight for Padparadscha… I wonder what kind of vision other types of sapphires would have.

I feel like RWBY's biggest problems with things like power levels of characters not making sense and characters having to be made weaker to keep the fights the way they are is the fact that there's just. No ruleset to how powers work in practice, there's no way to really follow what characters are going to do or what their options are because the writing for it is so inconsistent.

You have a very real and valid point. The truth of the matter is - there’s just no way to accurately (or even simply) gouge a character’s strength in RWBY. Aura has been so rarely discussed in canon other than the simple basics that we don’t know a character’s aura limitations (i.e, how many hits can a character take before having their aura is broken, how much does it take for them to use their semblance, do they have a big pool of aura (other than Jaune but he doesn’t use whatever ‘semblance’ he has so there’s no right way to estimate that either).

We don’t know if its possible to increase it through training your aura “pool” (sorta like chakara from Naruto) or if its a set amount that you start and end with. Through Beacon, we didn’t see any sort of “training” other than the melees Glynda overlooked and the occasional history/port class. The history class from Oobleck sheds some light on what happened in Remnant but even then, those lessons where so short and had the barest of “reveals” for what’s going on that at some point it felt pointless to listen. Port’s class on grimm was used to introduce “funny scenes”. The only time I can actively remember him discussing anything grimm related is literally the first time they have class, where Port has Weiss battle the boarbatusk. Without Ruby’s insightful shout of “under the belly” for Weiss to aim for, I can’t recall, at all, anything useful on the anatomy of Grimm and weaknesses. These classes they had at Beacon don’t reveal anything. It’s all pretty much left to the audience to guess that they’re making “improvements”. Not that it matters though, because they actively choose not to show said “improvements”. The inconsistency in how strong a character is in RWBY is so incredibly frustrating.

We don’t know if they got even slightly better after those months at Beacon. We only saw those team attacks that they had when fighting the Paladin Robot thing but as for individual stats wise, we just don’t know. And that’s crazy. I’ve never seen a show that focuses so little on just showing their audience “Hey, this is currently where they’re at right now. After this training session, they got this much better” for a show that revolves around fighting/super powers/etc. I’ll use Boku no Hero Academia as an example (of the many). We see how the MC has this ridiculous power he can’t control and completely obliterates him if he uses it. Through the episodes it shows him slightly learning how to better control it, how to tone it down, how it works, etc. RWBY is literally this guessing framework where the audience has to actively try and come up with a reason as to why this character got so easily beaten in this one fight (by not using their semblance or skills or whatever it is they apparently “learned”) when in a similar previous fight, they won relatively easily and kept using their semblance with no issues. Some might say “well they had a fight a little while ago” but that just brings up this blatant, burning question once more, “Well, how long does it usually take for someone’s aura to ‘recharge’ back up?” We don’t know.

RWBY lacks so much consistency it’s beyond funny now and just downright painful. I want to see character growth. I want to see what these characters learned in their time at the supposed most greatest school for huntsmen and huntresses in all of Remnant (if they even learned anything other than team attacks). I want to see how - despite their growth - this more powerful villain isn’t phased by their current level in strength, and see how these characters work around it either by coming up with something clever or learning a new trick.

I don’t want to see how in one fight they’re using their semblance left and right like there’s a Semblance Sale on Aisle 8 (get it while its hot) and in another fight its as if they’ve forgotten they have one. At this point, I just wish they’d iron out the details/rules for how these things work and try to introduce them better throughout the next volumes. But already the damage has been done, in my opinion.

I have to wonder if there is an anime out there that dumps the harem premise or the love triangle premise and just goes for a polyamorous relationship... It'd be nice to see cute stuff happening with that rather than things involving jealousy and bickering like you usually get. :<

If it’s any consolidation, I think the Light Novel version of Re:zero addressed that Subaru displayed interest in having a poly relationship with both Rem and Emilia to make a compromise with Rem’s feelings. Though this was not alluded to in the anime.

Yang never being taught about her semblance at what was supposed to be one of the top combat schools in the world is absurd and only says that the teachers had an incompetent program. Any Shonen "kids with powers going to a special school" story worth it's stuff has some classes for power management and education and advice

It was a bright and sunny day. Birds were chirping, deer frolicked freely, and the sound of armored horses echoed through the forest. It would be absolutely peaceful if these soldiers weren't on a crucial mission.

See the entire royal family, save for 2, were dead. The king, throat slit. The queen? Hanging from the balcony, her own entrails used as a noose. The prince wasn't much better as a broom handle was found shoved down his throat. There weren't even any cousins left, their bodies were found in the stables covered in horse shit.

The only survivors were the princess and former queen. Unfortunately, the princess was bedridden and hadn't moved in weeks. Thus, the former queen, now the current queen, had to retrieve the hidden bastard. She herself had 16 children, all of whom were dead to her or actually dead. The king and his bitch were fools to stop at 2. At least the King had a bastard.

Dionysia was a fair but iron ruler, and her views were both expansive and traditional. She needed her blood on the throne, even if it killed her. Which is why she sent her best soldiers to retrieve her hidden gem.

---

The village would be surprised as these soldiers burst in. Every person would be grabbed and examined roughly. These soldiers were looking for a mark. A mark that Dionysia had carved and tattooed onto the bastard herself. A strange, nearly amorphous symbol to most. Uneven antlers, covered in tentacles and webs.

There were five soldiers, not an inch of skin was seen under their armors.

A bowman, with light armor and fine engravings.

An axe weilding mountain of a woman, with a boar's head adoring her helm.

A mage, wearing heavy armor engraved with runes and profane symbols.

A swordsman, calm and poised. His armor had cats on it.

Finally, a beast of a man. His armor had strange beasts carved on it, and was a mix of metals and bone. He was easily twice the size of the other soldiers, and rode some strange beast into town. He was not rough, and he was soft spoken.

“By orders of the Queen, we seek Blackburn.”

'trick or treat'

Vali gives Dwight some bonafide'd fae candy. Or so he says it is. Is it safe to eat these? Most likely, but they might make you feel funny. At least they taste good.
