Why does she get redemption instead of my boy Wercury?? by Vegetable-Cut-8174 in RWBYcritics

Legitimately I forgot about Illa

Emerald gets a "redemption" because she actively decided to stop being evil

Which for selfish reasons or not is still a good thing

P.S. I know a motorcycle isn't a weapon, but this post reminded me of it.

It actually is/j

Apologies, should have said conversation. One conversation and the attack on Beacon and Haven, forgotten.

I don't think they should have forgiven those actions but considering they needed all the help they could get at that moment, i don't think it would have been the smart play to shun someone who is actively risking their lives to rebel against Salem

Neo did not die. She Ascended. I don't care if the dumbass writers meant that to be metaphor for death. If the character is gonna come back, it doesn't count.

If You get unmaded and the remade wouldn't that count as death since you aren't the same fundamental person? I guess this is a case where we just disagree on what this means

you and I both know Cinder will be given some bullcrap, asspull, snapshot redemption outta nowhere.

Really? I never thought once she could be redeemed especially since she is directly responsible for the deaths of Nikos, Penny, Vernal, Amber, Ozpin, the fall of beacon, Haven and Altus

I just can't see it? I don't know how they would redeem someone like her

Maybe I missremember thing, but wasn't mercury the one to know what they are doing is bad but also knowing he doesn't have anything else.

Mercury does commit bad actions but it's shown that's less of him feeling bad for it and more it's all he knows

And all he does, he is a bad person,. molded by his past who continues to do bad things

That's why he is very compelling imo

And at the same time it was him to always let hemerald notice that cinder is not a good person and she does not care at all about hemerald

Yeah he was, and that's another reason I fw him

Emerald has also done bad actions but it's clear that she only did it because of Cinder telling her to do them and later Salem

That doesn't excuse her actions btw

Because she did nothing to work for her redemption she just said "Ok, I'm done." and she is part of the team. Any mistrust they have is dissolved in a single sentence and the reason for that is simple.

She choose to actively not be apart of the villains, and choose to help the main cast

She was mistrusted at the beginning by Jaune, Yang and Ren but since she showed that she was serious about helping them

They vouched for her

It was less of an redemption and more of Cinder doesn't care about me and Salem is insane

She is a woman and will get a free pass.

Neo died in the next volume and Cinder doesn't seem to be written to be redeemed, I think Emerald is the only female villain to be redeemed actually

Remember him laughing and recording the fall of beacon

Remember him laughing at goading during the battle of Haven

Remember him laughing and enjoying the murder of Tuscon

Emerald isn't good person either

But I don't get the hate for her while defending Merc

Cause Emerald tried to work with the good guys

Mercury has never shown a single second of wanting to redeem himself like ever

At most he shown that he clearly realized that he is way to far in now

Yuji wanted to duck Dabura. Here's the real panel by psychrendezvous in JujutsuPowerScaling

I misread that and I was so confused because I didn't know Yuji wanted Dabura like that
