RWBY fucking sucks! But why?

Maybe because the writers don't know how to write?

Because, when the original writer/creator Monty Oum died, Rooster Teeth perverted this into their own SJW-sue powerfantasy.

Because it's not anime, duh.

>There is no magic but there is this stuff that's kind of magic and fuels stuff that sure looks like magic and each character has a special trick but that definitely isn't magic no sir oh by the way magic totally exists.
"Magic exists, but there's also this other thing called Nen/Ki/Chakra Aura". There are a lot of vlaid complaints about RWBY but this one is always bizarre to me - it isn't that hard to understand, and it's not even close to the first series to do this.

The only good thing about RWBY since ep 1 was the action and even that was rare and happened once every 6 episodes. After Monty died, it's like the animators that worked with him didn't learn shit from him, because the action took a fucking nose dive in quality. So why would anyway watch it at all?

I can confirm you're full of shit, and they've had a mass exodus of long-time fans after Volume 6.

Because it was the brainchild of a man who wanted to do cool fights with anime girls but had no idea how to write a story. Once he died, the animation took a nosedive and the writers were left to decipher his plans from literal ketchup stains. V3 was the only time it had any promise, and even then only in the second half.

It's not really the animator's fault either. Dillon Gu is a god tier animator as you can see on his own YT channel, but he was just forced to create boring scenes for characters the writers don't self insert as.

Same guy who hasn't watched it here. The trailer at least least looked like it improved upon the action quality that had been steadily declining (and tanked at Haven). On the other hand I heard they pandered hard to Bumblebee - which, as a concept, I'm not too peeved about, but the idea that they jumped from fucking straws to "they're in love!" over the course of one volume is a massive red flag.

I only watched the first season of this because my friend kept bothering me to and I hated it.
If I had to say a positive thing about it, it's the character designs for the main 4 girls.

It became trash once the premise is about highschool shit. When the first trailers came out, I expect them as professional hunters in their early 20s that meet each other under unfortunate circumstances.

fuck off to Yea Forums

As I said earlier I think the biggest problem of all was direction. Whoever the director was had no idea what they were doing in the finale. The most glaring issues include Ruby doing nothing until her eyes randomly activate (only to still do nothing) and massive chunks of time where characters just stand around awkwardly doing nothing.

If anything, check out the first few eps, as they spend an ep and a bunch of budget doing a full world history infodump, that was honestly really well done. The first half of the season was a lot of fun, second half, idk, decide for yourself I guess? I enjoyed it

You're right that was and still is a massive problem with this shitshow, but what really grinds my gears is how writers and directors just throw pre-existing character build-up and relationship development out the fucking window because it's not their own OTP, creating massive, gaping discrepancy holes between seasons.

How does Yea Forums do it? Even with all it's flaws it still manages to maintain a level of quality far above the other media boards.

Same problem with Game of Thrones. Once they started straying off the source material and didn't have guidance on how to move forward, they fuck everything up because they never really understood what the original writer wanted in the first place.

sure likes to shill their shit here.

Don't watch a few episodes. You'll see some potential, and that will make you want to watch more.

They never reach their potential. Every season turns out shit, but with some hope that next season will fix the mistakes. After 6 seasons, it still hasn't. And the show's success has already peaked, so they're never going to have the resources to fix it. At this point, I doubt they'll even have the resources to finish the story.

"Watching a few episodes" will only lead to disappointment.

/The writers have literally no fucking clue what they are doing. By that I don't mean their understanding is basic and they stick to basic narrative structures- I mean they actually don't know what it means to create a story beyond stringing events together.
I wish RWBY had a basic story structure like the generic three acts and at least it could play out like a mediocre marvel movie or a shounen anime. Right now it's just "things happen". It's a little kid going "and then, and then, and then!" They don't know what the fuck they are doing. I can and have gone in depth but you're going to just have to trust me. Or just watch any of the seasons: it's so painfully obvious you barely even have to say it- it sucks.

It's an enormous tragedy too because the first two trailers, but the first specifically, was dripping with character and most of all energy, something that is completely lost in the show itself.
If they had gone with unapologetic chuuni visuals, a focus on displaying cool animation in the style that monty was famous for and kept the story to a minimum you'd have a watchable product. Right now though, I can only recommend it to people who like shows that are so bad that they're good but then they're bad again. It's that kind of deal.

It's directed by the writers.

Yea Forums is much better at keeping the retards out. If that place was anything like Yea Forums there'd be at least five YA generals on the front page.

Because Weiss is ugly.

The writing mostly. Monty dying probably didn't help.

Where the fuck are the janitors, and why is this not in the /trash/ yet?

And that's why nip entertainment will always be better. Japs usually have protegés watching them and learning directly from them so that in the event something happens to the lead writer there's still someone around who can finish it according to the original creator's vision.

SJW politics.

I disagree hard. It's no masterpiece, but there is most definitely a through-line through the first 3 volumes which leads to a meaningful shift in presentation and structure. Volume 4 is then a "rest" volume allowing 3 to sink in and transitioning to the next arc. Only Volume 5 really dropped the ball in giving us clear forward momentum for a greater plot - in even then it had some great content early on. For all its flaws RWBY had something worth coming back to until it utterly failed at the Haven finale. Of course, if it's true that the writers are the directors then they're still to blame for the quality hitting low enough to burn out all of my good will.

It used to be "so bad it's good". Now it's just... mediocre. Unironically, it lost its soul. V6 had the right direction in the first half and then it kinda ended in a wet fart.

Massive RWBYfag here. This is unironically what's going on here.

The creator is no longer with us, is why.
