Life Overcoming

Everyone’s posting their rendition of this magnificent moment from TLOVM S2 so here’s mine… (with a few stills for better quality!)

Cinder hasn’t had any development since vol3 other then “I hate Ruby” and I really thought she’d do something this volume other then just build up for the next volume … again.

And if not, well… I’m optimistic after Vol 6 and her cool-down. Her way of actually learning from and observing her past mistakes. It’s small but that doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Cinder is changing. She’s developing. And as far as “She just hates Ruby”, honestly… I don’t get that vibe. As @astoria00 said, it feels like her vengeance fixation on Ruby wasn’t there until Vol 4 Episode 12 where she’s suddenly burning illusions of Ruby with a creepily smiling Salem right behind her, watching as she descends into this state. So… it’s not as simple as it looks.

Heck even when Cinder isn’t around, they are still building her arc. Maria and Ruby talking about Cinder and how there’s more to what they’re seeing with her. Legit, our main character is still thinking of Cinder.
