RWBY Ep 3: Welcome to Beacon Prt 2

I apologize in advance for lack of pictures, I am appealing to higher powers for better sources/knowledge to make snag something more relevant for my posts.  Moving on.

We pick up with Ruby and Jon finding their way into the welcoming ceremony at Beacon.  Yang snags Ruby back to her side and does not quite believe the story of her sister blowing up a perfect strangers luggage.

Weiss does the classic come from behind move as Ruby expounds her embarrassing moment to Yang.  We get a rundown of more attitude from the white princess here (I assure you the description is accurate).  She also commands Ruby to learn the proper safety regulations concerning Dust with a handy pamphlet.

Ozbin makes a rather terse announcement to the crowd about the contrast between the hopes of the new students and the wasted energy he sees out among them.  The students are then informed they will be starting tomorrow after resting this evening on the school grounds.

At this point I think most parents would flip, but of course is par for the course in anime.  The ENTIRE group sleeps in the same room, and we see a great deal of more detailed characters as opposed to the silhouettes before.

Yang is a LOT more comfortable in direct confrontation and jumping to new goals than Ruby, as demonstrated when Ruby recognizes Blake from earlier and Yang immediately drags her over.

However, Ruby shows more interest in actually getting to know Blake than Yang seems to.  I even see a decent beginning to how Blake expects to be reacted to and Ruby surprises her.  Of course the quartet gets completed by an irate Weiss.  If we see her smile it will be a shocking moment.

Blake ends the slumber party by blowing out her candles as Yang, Ruby, and Weiss have a mini-argument about getting things quiet so people can sleep.

I nice end to the intro here, a few hints of more characters to come we saw in the opening and a better idea of Blake and Weiss both.  I am hopeful we might see some longer episodes as well very soon.
