This… this is interesting

Amity Arena kind of has me fucked up because Boundless Jaune’s art has his orange accents as red and it makes the comparison even better, but in the show it’s very clearly orange (although Cinder’s flames are more orange than yellow this volume). He’s probably the character with the least reference to his actual colour name, it’s literally only his hair and symbol that are actually yellow, and now his symbol changes colours based on the dust being used. That makes sense since we still don’t know what colour he’s ACTUALLY supposed to represent, because we’ve had confirmation since Volume 1 that he has a colour his family gave him by name (yellow) and the colour he actually embodies. Jaundice played with the idea that it fit him because Jaune was “yellow-bellied” or a bit cowardly early Volume 1, but now he’s so far removed from being a coward, and has no sun, golden, or fire connotations like Sun and Yang do bar from his Joan of Arc inspiration.

But Jaune and Cinder both get colour palettes that are significantly darker. The only big difference between their palettes is cinder’s broach she’s had since volume 1, and the fact Jaune has white armour. Their gold accents are pretty much the same colour. From after Cinder and Jaune meet, their colour schemes become incredibly similar.
