Did that ever get any good? I watched the first episode, but never had any interest in anything past that.

The best things rwby gave the world are that scene where a wields a staff that splits into two pairs of nunchucks made out of flintlock pistols and...I dunno, beyond that it's mostly served as an inspiration for lots and lots of lesbian fanfiction

But yeah, in all seriousness the action scenes can be fun and dynamic and the character designs aren't bad (buoyed a lot by weapons that are dumb in cool, Devil May Cry/Bayonetta ways), but the writers keep trying to write a generic, fairly straight-faced high-school drama instead of a silly, over-the-top, vaguely sapphic action show like the material is begging for it to be. Probably because that would require them to either keep an irregular update schedule or actually produce more than 5 minutes of that cool action every two months of like a four month season.


Shame. I wanted to like it in a 'turn your brain off and munch some garbage' sort of way, but there's just not enough there there.
