RWBY/Recap/Trailers/P4 Yellow Trailer: Difference between revisions

{{tropelist}}

* [[Bar Brawl]]: Pretty much the majority of the trailer.

* [[Berserk Button]]: We get the first appearance of Yang's berserk button when Junior comes away from a melee exchange with a handful of blonde hairs, and Yang ''explodes''. Literally.

* [[The Cameo]]: Ruby appears in the last few seconds of the trailer.

* [[Characterization Marches On]]: Compare Yang from the trailer with Yang from early V4.

* [[Circling Birdies]]: A stunned Junior is momentarily circled by a ring of hearts. It even gets mentioned in Yang's [[Image Song]], "I Burn":

{{quote|''Watch the little hearts as they scrape you off the floor.''}}

* [[Combat Stilettos]]: Melanie and Miltia Malachite wear high-heeled ankle boots. Melanie's boots have blades attached to them, making them very literally for combat.

* [[Cowgirl]]: Although on close examination her clothing isn't really a cowgirl outfit, it still manages to give off an [[The Wild West|Old West]] vibe.

* [[Destination Defenestration]]: Junior gets punched through a window and out of the club at the end.

* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: Roman Torchwick can be seen concluding some business with Junior as Yang enters the club. It's not until V2 we discover that this business was hiring the [[Mooks]] he was leading in V1E1.

* [[Elegant Gothic Lolita]]: Miltia and Melanie's outfits.

* [[Foreshadowing]]: If you look at it the right way, the epigraph at the start of the trailer {{spoiler|hints strongly at Yang losing her arm at the end of V3}}.

* [[Groin Attack]]: Yang inflicts one on Junior while pressing him for information.

* [[Guns Do Not Work That Way]]: Averted by Junior: using it as a bludgeon is a great way to break your rocket launcher.

* [[Image Song]]: ''Almost'' averted. Three-quarters of the soundtrack of this trailer is made up of remixes of the previous three trailers' distinctive songs. It's only at the end that we get a single verse and chorus of Yang's Image Song, "I Burn". In order to hear it it in its entirety, you have to buy the soundtrack CD (or track down a YouTube video).

* [[Incendiary Exponent]]: Yang's shots explode in small fireballs, and Yang herself explodes into flame when she gets sufficiently pissed off.

* [[It's a Long Story]]: Yang's final line in the trailer, when Ruby asks her what she's doing at Junior's bar.

** Also an [[Incredibly Lame Pun]], as it would be a story about Yang Xiao Long, after all.

* [[Jerkass]]: Yang probably could have walked out of Junior's bar after apologizing for the [[Groin Attack]] and not had any trouble. But she chose to escalate matters unnecessarily, apparently just for kicks.

* [[Kick Chick]]: Melanie, whose combat style is based around the blades attached to her [[Combat Stilettos]].

* [[Mooks]]: Junior's minions.

* [[Nobody Touches the Hair]]: Yang's berserk button, introduced here.

* [[Punched Across the Room]]: Everyone Yang hits, basically. And Junior gets punched completely out of the club at the end.

* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: When Yang's lavender eyes turn red, take cover!

* [[The Reveal]]: We learn that Yang and Ruby are sisters in the very last moments of the trailer.

* [[Schmuck Bait]]: Yang's offer to Junior to "kiss and make up".

* [[Spent Shells Shower]]: When Yang reloads Ember Celica.

* [[Stealth Pun]]: "It's a (Yang Xiao) long story."

* [[Umbrella Drink]]: Yang explicitly asks for "one of those little umbrellas" when she orders a Strawberry Sunrise at Junior's club.

* [[Unorthodox Reload]]: As seen when Melanie and Miltia come out to fight Yang.
