Glad to see that humor hasn't disappeared from the series. Volume Three left me a bit worried there, so good to see that it's still present. Probably a bit reduced for some of the other characters, but hopefully not completely erased.
Liking the fact that the story is covering more territory, so to speak. Not sure how that will affect the pacing, since we now have four entirely separate plot lines, instead of two to three plotlines that have a great deal of overlap, but from how the series gets longer every Volume, I don't see it being much of a problem, since they'll have more airtime to play around with.
The series is definitely following the Star Wars plot so far. Volumes 2 and three had stuff happening, but the good guys won for the most part. Volume three, bad guys got a major victory, and Cinder, the traitor to the good guys, got maimed like Vader did. The real big bad is revealed and takes center stage, supported by underlings.
This means this Volume should have the equivalent of a Death Star. Looking forward to what it is.
Was expecting a bit more angst from jaune about how he wasn't strong enough. Glad he's not all whiny about it, and loved the tribute he made to Pyrra, using her gear to improve his own, and keeping her close, so to speak. A bit sad, but ti's the kind of guy he is. As for giving it a gun, we've seen gunblades before. Wouldn't be hard to have his sword split apart and have a rifle inside of it.
Kind of Hope Pyrra appears again this season. Not expecting her to be suddenly alive again, but having them reminisce about her, having a flashback, or just Jaune thinking of what she would say to him would be nice.
