If you look up both are fighting styles, it’s pretty clear that Ruby will always have a major disadvantage. Her fighting style is simply too straightforward, and her weapon is just way too bulky. Neo on the other hand is very elusive and nimble. She makes a living by letting you attack first, and then dodging to open up a counterattack. She can literally use Ruby’s scythe as a platform. A character like Blake is actually more fitting to fight her.

@@KizaruBorsalino The recoil of the gun was countered by the weight of the scythe - she used both for her fighting. Your original point of "she became stronger" doesn't make sense. Bodybuilders don't suddenly find pick up extreme weights to be easy because they have a larger muscle mass. Even if they trained every day to pick up 100kg, they would still struggle to pick it up every time. I'm not using opinion here like you're implying, I'm using science. And don't tell me this is a fantasy show where science doesn't apply when the show (attempted to) used real-world science to explain Ruby's semblance. Besides, OP's comment was referring to the near floaty choreography of Ruby's fighting. Everything feels weightless and that really takes away from the impact of hits - made worse by the fact she doesn't land any hits at all. Her style composed of wide spins, sweeping sticks and twirls to keep foes at a distance, but she wields it in an almost sword-like manner and you can tell the animators avoid putting her into fights.

Also you're just taking my point to the extreme. A weapon is supposed to be practical, so it doesn't make any sense to compare this to a bodybuilder and his weights, because nobody in their right might would carry a weapon too heavy to even move around and you don't fight just with raw power, you need technique and agility, quickness. But when using any melee weapon, be it sword, spear, battleaxe, hammer or whatever, you need body strength in order to use it efficiently, that's only natural, so why would it seems so weird to you that she would train her body to build more strength when it's something all fighters do be it in real life or in animes ?

Clearing things up for people. Weiss said "One way ticket to vacuo." RWBY is fighting in some sort of pocket in space or something where Ambrosious decided to put the portals. So you can go in&out of the portals, but the big portal to vacuo is the only one-sided portal because its the only one going to Vacuo. The other portals don't go directly to Vacuo. Another thing. Ruby had no time to grieve for Yang because Neo was practically breathing down her neck trying to kill her. Ruby panicked when Cresent Rose fell because she had nothing to defend herself with, and in that window of time, Neo wasn't directly near Ruby and couldn't attack. Ruby probably came up with the idea of tricking Neo during that moment. If you look from the characters point of view, everything is happening in an instant, you can't keep track of anything other then whats infront of you. Your being attacked, people around you are being attacked, someone you loved is supposedly dead. Whats your next move, whats your enemys next move, are your teammates still alive, how do I defend myself without my weapon.. for RWBY all this this happened in maybe 10 minutes or less in their eyes. (Edit) Also I would like to add that even if Ruby used her silver eyes, Cinder might go away for a bit but Neo would still be there and yang would still be well over the edge. Silver eyes only respond to grimm and when Yang fell, cinder wasn't directly in Ruby's point of view.

Yea that's fair I think people are mostly just upset how kinda dumb everything was in general..like how Ruby definitely noticed her sister 'die' but it didn't trigger her silver eyes. Like Ruby should've done it as soon as she saw Cinder like she did at the end of volume 7 Not to mention that before, robot Penny beat Cinder and Emerald (let's remove Neo from the feat since she was distracted by Maria) Even assuming that human penny is weaker somehow, Cinder shouldn't really have succeeded as much as she did. Cinder didn't really do much different from last time, she barged in knowing what she could but this time the writers wanted her to not take the 13th L. There's just so many things wrong with Volume 8 people accidentally call out the wrong things at times There are things I like about it like Penny's arc overall, all the foreshadowing coming to fruition and the terrifyingness of the hound but things like Hazels redemption being super rushed, everyone getting one shot all the time and Cinder not really changing at all just kinda sour stuff sometimes..

It's not the first time Ruby has seen someone dear to her dying, she should know that instead of crying like a baby and throwing herself to the floor while letting herself get stabbed by the person who just "killed" her sister, isn't exactly the correct way to act, she should instead not let herself get killed, and mourn her sister after she's defeated the enemy, the correct way of thinking if you ask me. Blake had time to react because she didn't have a Neo going for her throat, and also, she failed to save Yang, which want it or not, would affect her, but she cried for like 2 seconds and then decided to do what's right, fight, which is what Ruby was doing, so I don't see the big deal really, specially considering Ruby did appear to be shocked at first, and then was angry + crying while fighting Neo, so she did have a reaction.

In all of her fights with Huntsman-level foes, the only time she's actually landed a hit with her scythe is when she cut Tyrion's tail off. Seriously, every other time she's taken a swing with that thing, it's been blocked or dodged. She's managed to shoot, punch, kick and headbutt, but actually slicing anybody with her main weapon seems to be off the table. At this point, this bizarre omission is the only thing that genuinely bothers me about this show.

@@Supersheep64 I want to note for once Weiss gave Ruby the staff, Ruby seemed to have a hard time wielding Crescent Rose with one hand, so that's probably the reason she struggled there. As for the rest of time, giant swings from a weapon like that can't be easy.

@@TheGreenAzumarill Yeah, Crescent Rose seems to be a weapon exclusively designed to fight Grimm. And given her romanticised view of huntsmen pre-Vol1, I really wouldn't be surprised if the thought of having to use her weapon against another person was something that never crossed her mind while designing it. But even so, for somebody with superspeed powers to not be able to land a hit with their primary weapon of choice is just baffling. Even Ironwood was able land some blows with that cumbersome cannon of his, and that's not even a melee weapon!

Neo jumped Cinder in the Anima arc and let’s not forget the whole stealing the lamp and blackmailing Cinder with it Neo was hired help, upset about her love getting killed on a job she takes revenge on her employer and only stops when maiden powers gets involved, is easily convinced Ruby is to blame, agrees to help Cinder if she can kill Ruby… Cinder agrees to help her get actual revenge… and then when Neo gets upset that Cinder has to answer to her own boss, steals a magic relic from basically-satan knowing Cinder will be blamed as Neo is one of her assets and uses blackmail to get her way.

Dont know if this was intentional. But I liked how Neo and Ruby's fight called back to their Vol 3 one. With Torchwick talking about how cruel the world is and how you gotta do what you gotta do. And Ruby the pure optimist/moralist opens Neo's umbrella sending her off into space. A dirty underhanded yet clever and necessary tactic. Then proceeded to kick Roman in the knee cap to get a brief advantage another "low blow" (the nevermore took care of the rest yeesh). I will say in Ruby's playful banter there is a hint of mischief and I mean to want to be a warrior till you inevitably die denotes some bloodlust. Or at least being ok with blood and death to the point of it being a career. (Why was RWBY ever a kid show lol). Also Yang who did and does love violence and fighting (despite what the writers say outside of the actual show)and she helped raise Ruby. A pure and simple soul indeed! Yet she will still do what it takes to win and be the hero, like trick Neo one last time in a similar way (using a power she didnt use through most of the fight :( ) but its not about Neo its about the staff (that we have to take with us even though it would be SAFEST IN THE VAULT YOU UTTER CABBAGE) Its about the mcguffin we must keep from the bad guys. Thats why she is still fighting after watching her sister sui-sus (it was. There was no reason for Yang who absorbs damage to eat a bullet and not spit it right back or even throw herself in the way at all) She is crying broken but still fighting because that is what heroes do. She no longer questions or even tries to sway the bad guys, she goes for their head. She did learn from Torchwick after all. Like I said this totally coulda been an accident. It was enjoyable one though.
