  • Designated Love Interest: Yang can come across as this. Despite her and Jaune starting to date early on in the story, there are rarely any prolonged interactions between the two after that first date at the school dance; anything beyond Yang's occasional teasing is alluded to have happened offscreen. It certainly doesn't help that there are far more moments of Jaune bonding with Blake, Ruby and Neo, painting them as better options to some readers. Especially Neo, despite the narrative's insistence that they see each other as siblings. Chapter 39 even sees Jaune examine his relationship with Yang, and admit that he's not quite sure if he loves her. His insistence that he's too busy learning the inner workings of his Semblance comes off as a weak justification for the lack of effort he puts into their relationship.
  • Fridge Brilliance: The explanation that Jaune's Semblance is evolving at such a rapid rate because it experiences eight hours of use straight on a daily basis, causing it to overdevelop, brings up the question of why other Semblances that are likewise constantly active — namely Qrow's — don't rapid-evolve for the same reasons that they're in constant use. However, Qrow's Semblance is bad luck, which affects him as much as anyone in his immediate vicinity: Qrow's Semblance failing to evolve into something more useful is basically bad luck for him, causing his Semblance's effect to turn inward on itself.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Tyrian's Abusive Dad crossed it when he had his son lobotomized against his will by a back-street surgeon, in an effort to cure Tyrian's originally-harmless neurological disorders and give himself a "normal" son.
