When Adam points out that Blake broke a promise to him, Yang responds that it was to the promise he was pretending to be. As the mecha powers up its cannon aimed straight at Ruby, she climbs into it and fires her sniper down the barrel, blowing up the raw dust within and incapacitating the mecha.īack at the waterfall, Adam remarks that if Yang and Blake couldn’t defeat him at Haven, how can they win now, Blake replying that she has people that she promised she’d never leave again, so she refuses to die. Ruby offers her ‘one last chance to stand down and hear us out’, which is rejected. She goes on that they should be fighting together, that Cordovin uses her power as a display of status instead of a tool of protection. She offers Ruby surrender, which she defiantly rejects, proclaiming that they will go to Atlas. As the passengers stumble out barely alive, Cordovin approaches the sea cliff and Ruby confronts her. She attacks with the main cannon, causing the airship to crash land. However, before Ruby can fire her sniper, she sees her leaning out of the ship, pulling back the payload and making Ruby’s bullet bounce off the mecha’s armour.
Gleeful at this, Cordovin moves her cannon towards the airship, revealing her mecha’s missile payload. Using this information and Cordovin’s blind hatred of Calavera to her advantage, Ruby hops aboard the airship to attack.Ĭordovin receives a call from Argus Base and just as she goes to answer, she is distracted by Calavera telling her where she’s going to stick her airship’s last rocket. She quickly gets on her scroll to Oscar, who thinks he might have found another weakness to exploit in the mecha’s dust cannon: while the main cannon is protected, her missile launcher is briefly exposed when firing.
RWBY VOLUME 6 EPISODE 1 STREAM PROFESSIONAL
‘Seeing Red’ opens up questionably and almost humorously: what kind of professional military staff would abandon their post to watch a video feed of their commanding officer trying to take down a rogue airship, all the while cheering them on? This lapse becomes all the more apparent, as just before the episode cuts back to Ruby hanging off the sea cliff, an ominous red blip appears on one of the radars, ignored by the staff.īack at the sea cliff, Ruby climbs back up to where the rest of her group are at.
Though at times the volume had its questionable moments, ‘Seeing Red’ helps Volume Six stand out among the latest seasons of RWBY, as the gang conclude their business with Cordovin as a bigger problem approaches on the horizon.
