Was the amount of slaps Blake gave Sun a bit much? Yes. Is she a bad person for it? No.

The man stalked her in a cloaked disguise across the seas of Remnant, disrespected her boundaries for most of V4, & eavesdropped on a private talk with her dad. He's not exactly innocent.
Plus she was in a mentally (and possibly physically) abusive relationship. Some of Suns behavior likely reminded her of Adam & she may have subconsciously taken on some of Adam's tendencies. After all, I already discussed how she probably picked up "I'll protect you" from Adam.
Plus don't forget the V4C8 slaps were a miscommunication between the writing and the animation
And I lowkey headcanon part of her reasoning for the cheek kiss was an apology for the slaps 😂

Considering they gave a reply saying this extends to anyone who's encountered being uncomfortable with men, I figured I'd say something as well
I've mentioned it before in a whole statement but I'm a survivor of sexual assault and harassment. All at the hands of men. And not even cishet men at that. So queer men, don't think you're excused from this. You're just as capable of being predatory as straight men.
TW // sexual assault, rape, sexual harassment

As I mentioned last year, I lost my virginity via being objectified & raped by the guy who was my boyfriend at the time. I was hesitant to be too intimate in relationships for a bit after that. And for good reason.

So slight hot take thread

Honestly it warms my heart to see the amount of animated media nowadays that isn't afraid to make characters with pasts of parental or romantic abuse and give focus on how that affects them
However, and maybe this is just me, there's noticeably more instances of parental abuse here than romantic abuse. Hell tbh the only big instance in recent animated media I can think of is Blake and Adam from RWBY. Which is pretty well done minus needing some early focus.
Point is though that we need more of this. Yes, parental abuse may be more relevant to animated media since it mostly appears in shows aimed at family and kids but I think it's important to express this type of abuse too. Mentally and physically.

Ok there is ONE major inconsistentcy that Before The Dawn has that I wanna talk about. And it's not spoilery for the book since it's about the main show.

Details below
The book keeps saying that while Sun was in Menagerie, team SSSN apparently spent a semester at Haven. And the book keeps wording things like team SSSN and other students took part in the battle of Haven.

Fans will know that literally none of that happened
Volume 5 literally made a point that no one was on campus besides RNJR, Qrow, Ozcar, Weiss, Yang, & Leo. All the staff & students were supposed to be away at home or killed by Salems forces. And the semester hadn't started yet. In fact, the battle was the night BEFORE it started.
