RWBY Volume Seven

[Labster]

I've had a thought for a while now, so I figured I'd post it here first.

I'm predicting Oscar will sacrifice himself so that Ozpin will jump again. This time, inside Salem. He can't kill her, but nothing says he can't save her. He built his original life's mission on rescuing people from impossible places no one else thought could be accomplished. What could be more epic than journeying inside the Wicked Witch's consciousness to save the soul of the woman he fell in love with?

I mean, that's half right, but we can't have a female Oz, that would be as bad as having a female Doctor or something.  Could you even imagine?  But really I disagree with you because it doesn't sound epic, it sounds boring and deus ex machina on a world the deities are specifically avoiding.  You are right that Salem can be saved.  It's the only way, and really, what the Brother Gods said was the victory condition from the beginning.

But okay, episode 13!  Last of the season, which means that in a week, our non-FIRSTies can be all caught up.  Just a warning that it's kind of a cliffhanger, because reasons.

Spoiler

The Winter Maiden is combat ready!  <3 <3

I'll say that minus one relic, plus one maiden is probably a win for Team RWBY, but it sure doesn't feel like it.  If we subtract one Atlas in there, the math gets a little worse.  And carrying the Qrow...

And James didn't kill Arthur?  Seriously?  Let's sacrifice all of Mantle, but gotta throw Watts in jail, them's the rules.

And what I've been suspecting all along seems at least partially confirmed.  Why would anyone think that Salem is earthbound?  Can that giant grimm battlestarwhale thing go into space?  Unless there's something specific about the conditions of her curse, like having to "walk the earth" that I don't remember.
